I Spent 100 Hours Testing CR18P Pro Evo Mods and Here's What I Found

[@RallyandTrail]

I like the sound of the 20% overdrive gears 👍 Great video 😎🏁

[@The_RC_Family]

Thank you Rally and Trail. Me too! I may have something else you'll like to see in the week or so. A Rally Car review!

[@Diamondback_RC]

I appreciate all your technical studies with the upgrades. Can't wait to see it in the wild!

[@The_RC_Family]

Thank you DBRC, I am looking forward to getting out with it.

[@nj2033]

Great video!!!! Thank you

[@The_RC_Family]

You're welcome bud.

[@kollinsendall1]

I put a trx4m meus straight axle on the front and kept the stock portal axle on the rear. Truck is pretty damn capable with a few mods.

[@The_RC_Family]

I do love a mullet, good job mate.

[@Bonitacreekrcs]

That’s a cool paint job👍

[@The_RC_Family]

Thank you @Bonitacreekrcs, to be fair I am only 33% responsible for it ;)

[@jayleeson8517]

Nice updates on the mini beast Dwight

@@jayleeson8517 Thank you Jay, how you been?

[@thepdc6220]

Curious what transmission might drop in to replace that big nasty 2 speed. Ideas??

[@The_RC_Family]

Hiya, as I understand it any of the stock or side versions of the CR18P will fit ;)

[@areadierc2803]

The hobbyplus rushmore transmission would direct fit and reduce some slop

[@The_RC_Family]

@@areadierc2803 Thank you for the info Area

Thank you :)

You're welcome my Good Friend ❤🎉❤

[@Rc_Alex_76]

I wonder if a tig weld here n there for that slop it's crazy always trying to compensate for that thanks man great upgrades. Got 58 degrees out my evo unitrak but it's got about every bit of brass on available beginners luck I guess

[@The_RC_Family]

Oh nice Alex! I mean this might have been more as perspective changes angle and it was going through a lens which bends light so I will have to do a more accurate test at some point. It is definitely improving though. I am not finished with it yet! =)

[@Rc_Alex_76]

@The_RC_Family yeah I've watched the progress of the build and it is coming along well cheers. ALEX

[@EricsRC]

Great stuff! Liked and subbed! I have upgraded everything and the only and huge issue is wheel slop!! Any fix yet?

[@The_RC_Family]

There are lots of fixes. Most of the slop is at the pins inside the wheel hexes. Shim them there is my advice. Thank you for the subscription :)

[@EricsRC]

@The_RC_Family You welcome! well i did just find a gear reduction kit on rcawd. So I ordered that. Fingers crossed

[@jord001]

Looks good, interested to see how it does on the rocks or the not so impossible climb..

[@The_RC_Family]

I'm not sure this rig can do the "impossible" climb as that is a large-scale obstacle but that doesn't mean I won't try it LOL. Thanks for watching Lee

[@Robster19851]

Hi. What did you do to try fix the torque twist?

[@The_RC_Family]

There is a video on my channel detailing the axle swap with links to the cheapest one

[@The_RC_Family]

Let me know if you need a link

[@Robster19851]

@@The_RC_Family yes please. Would be a great help.

[@watch-box]

the slop can (apparently) be removed by drilling the axles out for 1.2mm pins (which is what the gears have been made for) I believe the current pins are 1.1mm I tried finding the article where I read this but couldnt unfortunately I havent been brave enough to try it with mine yet, but with a new sharp drill bit it should be easy to do. obviously try 1.2mm pins in the gears first to confirm this is correct before drilling!

[@The_RC_Family]

Great information. Thank you for sharing. Hopefully, it will help someone here.

[@johnnydh544]

That thing is a beast! It's basically cheating! I NEED ONE SO BAD! I'm gonna get the rcawd +10mm axels too. Great content! thank you!

[@The_RC_Family]

Nice, those axles are preferable to these with the 10mm hubs. It should be better than this!

[@ch-vs3fw]

I just received mine today, no slop reduction or fix from the manufacturer yet 😢

[@The_RC_Family]

It's a shame they've not addressed this. It would be very easy to reduce the slop at the manufacturing stage.

[@Heroemania-rc]

Sorry if my question bothered you, it was not my intention.

[@The_RC_Family]

What question Hero?

[@Heroemania-rc]

I thought you deleted my question... I don't know what happened but when I came back to see if you had answered me, the comment was no longer there.

[@Heroemania-rc]

I asked you if you could explain to me how to remove second gear, I don't see it as necessary.... and on the other hand, how can I make sure the gears don't jump? When I'm in first gear and accelerate, the sprockets jump and the crawler jerks forward... it's very annoying since I can't climb anywhere like this...

[@Heroemania-rc]

I have the same model, cr18p pro EVO and I love this model, I am making some modifications to it too but I loved the ones you made
