FTX Hi-Rock Upgrades Test - Is It Any Better?

[@rcplaytime]

do the sides on your body pop out of the skid plates too, put velcro in mine,love the new wheels, need to get some for mine,😀👌👍👍

[@DoURC]

Yeah they do, but I've just left them that way, never caused an issue. Velcro is a cool idea though. 👍 Thanks very much, I'm really happy with the wheels. I think the upgrades have definitely made a difference, definitely less top heavy. 👍 How do you rate the Hi-Rock vs your trx4 capability wise?

[@rcplaytime]

@@DoURC considering ftx is nearly half the price of trx4 it's brilliant, and just as capable ,love the outback 😀👍👍👍

Those wheels do look good, can I ask where you got them from?

[@DoURC]

Thanks very much. 👍 Yeah no problem, the wheels and tyre were from Aliexpress. Just search up 1.9 beadlock and there's loads to choose from. 👍

Those hyrax copies look good. Shame I couldn't see any in 2.2" size for my FTX Mauler. . So I ended up ordering genuine ones at 60 squid for a set! :-( Have you vented the tyres at all?

[@DoURC]

Yeah they seem really good, very sticky and seem to grip well. Shame you couldn't find them in 2.2", but I bet the genuine ones will probably be even better...or at least you'd hope so! No I haven't vented them, just put them on. I did fit 75g wheel weights to each wheel too. You can definitely feel the weight difference with the ally axles, steel wheels and wheel weights.
