Capra Mini On the Rocks ** After Excavator** Holmes Hobbies UTB18 by Axial 1/18 Scale

Today we hit the rocks and test out the new course layout.
Did you see the excavator video? Check it out: • Construction Hypnosis?...
UNLIMITED TRAIL BUGGY IN A WHOLE NEW SCALE!
They claim 1/18 scale size so you can take the UTB18 Capra 4WD almost anywhere for the unlimited scale trail experience even in locations with limited area for crawling.
Like the larger trail buggy, the UTB18 Capra also has portal axles. These portals help give the UTB18 Capra extra ground clearance for tight lines.
The Axial UTB18 Capra 4WD Unlimited Trail Buggy comes ready-to-run, and that's pretty cool.

[@WillB.6759]

Fun little booger I see... Might hafta grab one.

[@IowaBudgetRCBashers]

I wouldn’t mind having one of these. They’re extremely capable rigs

[@HolmesHobbies]

yeah they are

[@gxtxRCcrawling]

looking good :D cheers it takes shape

[@redndeyes]

Yesss!!!! Thank you thank you thank you... some HH Utb18 LOVE. patiently waiting on a brushed😊 Hw1080s are ok but lots to be desired with stock motor.

[@HolmesHobbies]

for sure!

[@MauzyrockRC]

Wicked new course!

[@HolmesHobbies]

work in progress

[@malky525]

I couldnt wait, or trust your work after that bump to the brain😂. Given you lots of my money already anyway. Rhino esc with a drone motor. Smooth as a fusion pro.

[@HolmesHobbies]

oh

[@rcjoe406]

Good stuff ..i taped the holes on my stock utb18 tires made a big difference gave plenty of sidewall support

[@HolmesHobbies]

good idea Joe

[@pocketfuloducks1062]

Nice shorts!

[@stompindakka3222]

😮 wonder with a little shock tuning and some brass how much you could improve the rigs capability.

[@HolmesHobbies]

up next!

[@mikes062]

Your rig always looks big

[@HolmesHobbies]

awe, thanks mike

[@adam_chevyss]

Hoping for a new brushed motor from you for this. I was looking at the Furitek options, but only because you don't have a brushed one yet. I'll try to be patient, lol.

[@redndeyes]

Same here.... we are using 1080s work well on 3s w stock motor for now. Far better than stock esc.

[@adam_chevyss]

@redndeyes I run 1080s in all of our trail/crawlers. Likely this one too once I get a motor picked out.

[@adam_chevyss]

@@redndeyes Are you using the Helios 3s battery or another brand?

[@redndeyes]

@@adam_chevyss gensace ovonic and tattu 3s

[@CharlieFultonSC]

Dumb question but why not go with the 380 brushless?

[@fishnrc294]

I’ve upgraded mine but it still has the stock electronics so far I had it out & took a difficult 1:10 scale line & it made it up it I have 1:10 scale Crawlers that can’t make it up it I was super impressed. I have 1.9 wheels with smaller J concepts tires. Next I’m replacing the motor but it sucks because it’s a esc / receiver combo so I have to get a different radio & receiver. I can’t stand the Combo’s it just makes it harder to replace the motor. Any recommendations for a replacement motor?

[@mishmasta]

I put a Hobby star 2208 size 1900kv outrunner in mine, and it is almost perfect for that rig. It could use just a tad bit more torque and it would be perfect. Something like a snub nose version of your 380 Revolver would be ideal! Even with the tiny 2208 motor it has way more torque and control than the stock setup. Get the Dlux universals once you decide to swap the electronics because those stock CVs are made of glass!

[@adam_chevyss]

Made of glass is for sure, loll. Luckily they are equal length so sets include a spare.

[@redndeyes]

Yep dlux axles are necessary. What esc you running?

[@adam_chevyss]

@@redndeyes stock for now. Likely 1080 soon.

[@mishmasta]

@@redndeyes It's a Fly Color 20a drone ESC that I flashed with AM32. Along with a 4ch micro receiver for my GT5 it is a very compact package!

[@davehughes2687]

Hey bud...what revolver motor would you recommend for my rc4wd marlin crawler.. thanks for your time Dave...

[@FiveFourRacing]

And Love it with my Holmes Hobbies revolver 380 with crawlmaster and shv500lp on 4s in the 18

[@HolmesHobbies]

awesome Tom!

[@benjamincloutiermainerc]

Question for you would you suggest I waterproof a rochobby 1:12willy scaler mb ?I've asked a bunch of people and no one has ancered me

[@ericwagner3223]

I’ve been working on my Capra 1/18. It’s up to 5lbs now lol. Not sure if it’s good or bad but seems more capable than stock. Probably one of your motors next.

[@HolmesHobbies]

rite on!

[@lutach]

That looks nice, so relaxing compared to the high voltage monsters I ran lol. Sent you an e-mail, actually replied to your last e-mail from 2012. I've been away from to hobby way too long.

[@RCJesus420]

Need more input! No disassemble!!!

[@CharlieFultonSC]

Hrmm get this or the 1/10 scale one…
