The 5 Must have Mods for the SCX6

[@kevin_fine]

Thanks so much for checking out my Fine Laser Designs Clipless Hood Latch for the Honcho! I also make them for the Jeep and many other trucks!

[@jakethole]

I just ordered mine for the Jeep. Thank you and thanks to Joe for letting us know about these. Do you have these for the scx10.3 Jeep also? If so I might have to buy another one ..I literally sold mine because of how much the clip system bothered me. Thanks again!

[@kevin_fine]

@@jakethole I do! Thank you for the order! I make them for SCX24, SCX10, and SCX6 as well as some other Losi products at the moment! If you check out the rest of the store you’ll be able to find them :)

[@gatorrcgames]

I have your latches on my scx6 Jeep. Works great!

[@brianehrhart9896]

I’ve had mine for six months now and love it. It seems more durable than the body. You have saved me many hours of wasted life!

[@kevin_fine]

@@brianehrhart9896 That is great to hear! I love to make happy customers and always good to hear that you're still getting solid use out of it many months later :)

[@FarmerFpv]

I love the editing in this video. Super clear instructions, music is not too loud. Perfect bro!

[@ExocagedRC]

I appreciate that!

[@TTORADell]

I just purchased an SCX6 and obviously have to spend a bunch more money ! But I'll have think it should have been expected ! Thanks for heads up and how to 👍

[@davidconaway2830]

Completely agree with the upgrades and have done all of them but the servo/esc tray.

[@jdsrcs8061]

The Fine Lazer Design body clips are awesome. I got them for the Jeep body, makes battery changes so much easier. The Vitivon pan hard mount is beefy for sure. I will get some c hubs from you EXO!!!! 🤘🤘🤘

[@ExocagedRC]

Thank you! I pinned this comment

[@CRAZYBUILD349]

thanks for the info, just ordered a honcho.on sale $828.00 sweet,proline supper suamper tires wheels and shift 1/5 servo,now, your mods, servo mount tray first, thanks man!!!

[@Jawang85]

Thank you this is my first car and showing me step by step helps so much

[@bjrnmagnusson5351]

Great video. Love the new editing style. The close-ups shots really tell the story.

[@paz9x]

be nice to state you have a relationship with vitavon for all these vitavon videos

[@lindeleasley]

Getting there, slowly but surely.

[@NathanStorer-RC]

Got a chuckle out of some of the unexpected sound effects you put in there lol

[@ExocagedRC]

LOL I had to do something

[@Bot_Brad]

Another Great Video Sir

[@sagnhill]

I absolutely love Vitavon. I just received my F&R Vitavon axels and just ordered a set of HD drive shafts and their skid plate with link mounts. Next month Im going to get the links, steering links and servo mount. And depending on my budget I may just say hell with it and just order all the rest of the Vitavon lineup for the SCX6. Then on to the body with some paint details and other scale details.

[@sunnyv1281]

What’s the point of spending so much money just get metal or something cheaper ? I though about it but it’s so expensive both axles are like 800$ that’s nuts not counting you’d need links etc

[@sagnhill]

@@sunnyv1281 No, that is not true. Both axles are 400 bucks. Plus, I did not buy every thing all at the same time. I bought one item at a time over a year. I think I bought the axles first, the the skid plate, then the driveshafts and links, then the shock mounts, then the trans housing, then all the frame cross members.

[@sunnyv1281]

@@sagnhill I’ve looked it up it’s like 800$ for front and rear axle I’m kinda new to this and want to get vitavon parts should I get front and rear or housing axles or they same thing because I want to get portals housing as well

[@sunnyv1281]

@@sagnhill I just found his redesign one and both are 400$, but I see he has some able housing for like 500$ front and back and some other weird stuff can u explain ? Only his portal will work with his own redesign axles ?

[@sunnyv1281]

Than he has some steering portal housing axles what is even that?

[@walterbryan1798]

Hm, sometimes bare aluminum looks good to me, sometimes, not so much. I think the shock towers look good, but I’d prefer the steering links to be anodized or painted. I don’t like shiny in that area, haha.

[@TheAmericanUhate]

I went with the servo first, nsdrc rs2500 v2 😬 Now when it starts breaking other parts, I'll have an excuse to upgrade those as well 😆

[@williamluck5324]

Hows the servo, improvement

[@TheAmericanUhate]

@William Luck Massive improvement for sure. Got some vitavon shock towers as well. I need to get another reciever to swap to my other remote though, for end point adjustment.

[@williamluck5324]

@@TheAmericanUhate thanks man, appreciate the feedback

[@jonlaird5082]

Great tips as I just picked up an scx6 honcho. I'm looking to get more torque as I don't care about speed. What spur/pinion size would you recommend? Thanks

[@punisher6634]

Thank you getting one for Christmas an was going to upgrade servo but better upgrade things you suggest first.ty USMC LCPL DESERTSTORM DISABLED VET T RECKNER

[@efeezhee4088]

Fantastic video and breakdown. I have the same truck. I totally agree with your assessment. One question. Is there any reason you decided to go with the stock location vitavon mount and not the V2 version that moves the servo to the front? Thanks! 🍻

[@dkmgm2011]

Great job on this video. Thanks Joe!

[@guatehobbyrc]

great improvements to your scx6, thanks for sharing

[@mmmasterscross7915]

Thanks for your video. it was very helpful and information .

[@jimclaytor9834]

With that amount of flex probably got death wobble 🤔

[@rueagonvyceratops2879]

i got tyo get me some vitavon stuff , because the ingency stuff i have now keeps breaking panhard mount , and im not even trying to break them.

[@toysforboysrc]

Beautiful 😍 shock towers they look MEAN 😠… HEY Do you know if there is going to be any new releases or V2 of the SCX6 or like another model to compliment the already existing SCX6? Weather you know or not, when is usually the time they come out with new stuff? Like October-ish?

[@6GUN]

Is there a way to make the Jeep body of the SCX6, lift from the front like on the Honcho where it has a hinge on the rear of the vehicle?

[@golddogrob]

I want these first.

VITAVON CNC Alu #7075 Front Knuckle & C Hub for Axial SCX6 Trail Honcho 1/6 Is this the right order? Please answer thanks

[@mentlz]

how can you do all that work installing those parts and not show us the end result to show all that flexing fixed...pretty much watched that whole video for nothing,still dont know if those parts where worth it or not

[@markkumollari43]

👍🇨🇦🤠

[@jamesmower1852]

I think it is funny when people act like metal absolutely cannot flex at all there's no flex just a lot less even full-size cars and trucks have flex when U-Turn and when you hit uneven ground

[@ExocagedRC]

Metal does flex, even concrete flexes. Some materials flex better without fatiguing as fast. In Fact the CHUBS on this can get flex but it will be from the plastic housing they are on.

[@scottmichael7178]

and with only $700 on top of the $1100 for the rig, you can have steering that doesnt flex !!!! lol what a joke

[@ShadeTree_RC]

right 1250 dollars for a wet noodle lol im good on that

[@ExocagedRC]

lol sooo you NEVER mod anything? You are one of those who are just happy with whatever comes out of the box?

[@ShadeTree_RC]

@@ExocagedRC u took me wrong brother of course we all mod our rcs only point i was making its rather crappy of horizon to charge that much for an rc and use right down cheap parts on it but that seems to be growing in popularity with a lot of companies like that panhard 1000% they know that is not going to work with a 5th scale servo and how much would they be out doing it right ? 7 dollars an rc if that ?

[@scottmichael7178]

@@ExocagedRC lol, i didnt mean it like that. I meant the quality of the scx6 is a joke. Also I dont buy rtr because i replace everything anyways so i buy a chasis and build it. For me, Its a waste of money, especially since i dont get parts or rigs for free, and as you know, this is an expensive hobby lol.
