RC ADVENTURES - PROJECT OVERKiLL - Episode 5

[@JC-Nor-Cal]

Flux can cause corrosion in the long run but does clean off any contaminants and makes for a good solder joint in the interim...so I'm told. P.S. nice build. Can't wait to see it complete.

[@TheAmericanUhate]

It's amazing how much different this truck already is in the new videos. I can't wait to see the next update with the tracks and everything more put together!

[@RcNickster709]

I don't care what the previous plan was. I like this one. I was wondering when that trailer was going to get used and on a Dually.........Beauty...love it!!!! Look forward to seeing this thing finished...thanks for the vid

[@Javawrx207]

The entire time you were talking about the body at the end i was thinkin "Ford ford ford ford ford!" And when you said you were using a ford i was like "YES!" Great stuff Medic!

[@Edgardo0015]

That truck is awesome can't wait to see it when it's all done!!!!

[@TheTurbo325i]

Medic you just made my DREAM TRUCK. Go FORD!! Great job I love your work!!

[@toddolatheks.1328]

Really cool video awesome production, but I love your builds because they’re not set in stone. You’re not afraid to design as you go! What’s even more cool is you consider ideas from your subscribers!! And you’re even humble enough to admit that you don’t know everything!! Amazing WOW 😮 WOW 😲!!! I’d i’d rather push a FORD than drive a Chevy!!!!! So don’t even say it I know what you weird chevy guys are gonna say!! So my answer to you is …… {I know you are but what am I!!}… …🤔😱🤪🤪🤪🤪😜🤪🤪 Thanks 🙏

[@FreakyT333]

Medic you did a fine soldering job. Generally if you use good 60\40 rosin core solder you have plenty of flux in the core of the solder wire. The main thing when tinning (IMO) is having a hot enough iron and tilting the wire downward so the solder doesn't flow up into the wire. In and out like a ninja and your golden! Thanks for the great vids brotha!

[@Bigfurry1975]

Kudos on the Ford truck body!! Can't help it, I'm Blue Oval all the way!

[@Dans_new_adventures]

THAT IS ONE AWESOME RIG if I do say so myself I think that will be the biggest and baddest dingo around

[@johnm.gerard1718]

YES, I do lkike the Defender body style. Nice close ups in the camera work.

[@jerabekj]

Last one is to your link/steer setup. 4 linked front is great setup which works very well, but not with servo on the frame. SCX frame, even it is quite stable is not stable enough from side to side. Once the servo pulls the wheels it will also pull the frame to side in oposit direction which leads to lesser steering and overloads shock and link mounts. This should solve a panhard rod. Another issue with servo on frame is bump steering which will also overload the servo. Anyway ... good job man!

[@jerabekj]

Hi Medic, I would try to drill inner wheel more to fit around the axle and attach dual wheels using the outer one (maybe using some longer hexes). Can't say now if it is possible and if it won't have problem with clearance to suspension, but it would look more scale if there will be smaller difference between front and rear width.

[@nitrotruggyracing147]

soldering tip for ya, get some smaller solder, it melts easier. also, solder already has some flux into it, so adding more on the actual wire almost dosent do anything, learning how to solder without flux also makes you a better solder, one more thing, use a bigger tip, it helps the wire get hotter faster. hope this helps, loved the vid!

[@UmyNEPHEW]

you should put four bolts in each dually tire. I think it would look cooler. also it would make them heaver for a better COG and traction. just a thought o yeah were did you get that sweet four link set up??

[@mrsillyname]

Hey Medic just a thought you should try using the plastic braided cable covering that computer builders use on R/C stuff. They are very slick looking and way better than the corrugated plastic car wire covers (split loom). Just an idea for you to try if you like. Take care and keep up the awesome videos!

[@cowboy072369]

Hey Medic. . I would go for the adjustable C-Hubs. its what I had to do.. so you can still have the drive line angle but your steering would be more level. .I swear are are project here is so much the same.

[@bcgal0004]

Ordered my axial wraith and parts, just waiting for them to arrive, thanks for your videos mate! they get my exited for the post man to have a surprise for when i come from work!

[@IntenseKustoms]

I like the rear being up higher. Will lower down with the trailer on it anyways. My question is. What are you gonna do to the body to make it look like a dually?

[@DANIELKREVO]

Hi, great rig so far, but you got me thinking, you did not plasti-dip the posts because of heat dispersion, but won´t the heat shrink tubing do the same effect?

[@lilboone9866]

did awesome build love that its a FORD! FORD ALWAYS!!!

[@jbelmo1]

Nice now I got it, dually wheels here I go all good now. thanks for showing how to do it!

[@TopGearFan8]

Medic you have to put four lights on the back box coming over the roof like on the tundra and four lights on the front u need tonsee where u are goin wen u tow a trailer and it will just look awsome. Hurry with the next video!!!!!

[@scooterking85]

That was AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@evanpapp93]

once you put those dualies on it super duty was just screaming in my head! good pick

[@Beaten4.8]

i love the dualie idea, its the ultimate two rig, its going to look amazing. its great to see youre using an F350 body. I just happen to have one question, why are you using the Proline tires and not something else? I cant wait for the final product.

[@803_l5p]

nice rig man! it looks sick you should try and make the rear fenders stick out like a real dully. and if you wont to get technical you can have the orange teardrop lights at the top. great build im ready to see more

[@paulgabrielle1]

nice tip on the dual wheels. i have some new ideas now for another build!

[@idoeverything733]

Hey Medic, earlier i commented suggesting to get the dirt grabbers. I dont know your exact intentions on what this truck is going to do. i know you said its your puller. but once you put on the dually tires you said think how hard it will be to tip over on the trail. idk but i was just scanning over rc4wd again and saw they had some new 1.7 scale mickey thompson baja atz. They look so cool in my opinion and i know its your truck do what you want, its just a suggestion. Love that truck id buy it

[@hammell557]

LOOK HERE nice!... ford body good pic medic, an vid, but i have a question..... are you gonna make a trac bar for the front end of your truck? if so you will need a three link in the front so it will have some lateral movement, it binds when has four link an doesnt want to move as much as the three link,

[@jerabekj]

Other suggestion from my own experience - make the puller really heavy. You can afford it with such torque and you need it to sucessfully pull loaded trailer. I have trailer made from alu, but it is still pretty heavy. Once I load my Losi MRC (pretty heavy too), my Honcho start to have problems with traction and pull the trailer uphill on dust is almost impossible. I needn't to say that my 2,2 Honcho is quite heavy truck.

[@nathansears1080]

hey i have a question ??? what do u think would be the best bang-for-your-buck rc truck for all around terrain

[@JuniorPros118]

hey since its gonna be a dually, are you going to make the wheel wells wider? It would look weird if their was a tire on each side sticking out. know what i mean?

[@OldIronRC]

Medic, what are the rims you used for the dualies please? I have been trying to figure out how to join some Maximizer 1.9 bead locks with Flat Irons on them, but the ones you use look far better and easier to join up. Great video, mmmmmmm, brain food.

[@PontiacGT201]

Medic quick question you covered the heat post on the fxr with heat shrink. is that still gonna let them give off heat good?

[@Aklammt92]

Medic why not attach and heat shrink the wires THEN plasti-dip the whole thing? Wouldnt that shield the wires even further?

[@UmyNEPHEW]

This is so beast! when its finished you should see how much weight it can haul and make a vid. I like the easy dually solution keep up the cool stuff

[@PapaSenangEnduro]

Great Rig Medic... one thing, can you explain what capacity is the capacitor and does it doing its job properly? thanks man... always like your vids

[@RandomRollersPA]

hay medic so ive been watching your videos and this stuff is really cool i wouldnt have the patients for this stuff lol. but for your heat shrink over the capasator problem what i always do is cut a slit in it to move over the wire for it but you still can cover your solider joint.....just my 2 cents :)

[@hnx18]

make sure you make the fenders on the back for the dually tires for more scale looks

[@Sociopathicc]

Forgive me for a noob question but is the esc still waterproof with the exposed capaciter or does need plasti-dip afterwards, or??

[@BearBaillie]

Hey medic nice job there but I was looking at your bolts and wondered if you could get countersunk hex heads

[@redyunc]

Hey i was wondering, what video making software do you use to make these videos. Please let me know i would really appriciate it! By the way im loving the videos, and the double tire idea is just awesome!

[@liighthead]

nice vid.. just watched all 5 :) btw wouldnt you have to put something over the exposed solder on the ESC so its water proof? pretty new to crawlers though :) lol nice work keep it up

[@SxVxBravo]

Idea for ya medic...... Put dually tires in the front and rear it looks sick i did that for my friends truck and it works great.

[@TheVanyves28]

love the wheels dude!!!...so wicked!!!

[@ryanmfkitts]

Hey medic, keep up the vids man I didn't see the dually coming, think its amazing, look into wheel spacers so the front wheels sit right about in the middle of the two rear wheels, if you know what I mean, and maybe a wide body kit for the rear end so it doesn't have a tire sticking out both sides :/ lol

[@suhaibchobi]

nice truck but all these metal parts doesn't make it heavy?i mean i it going to affect the speed of it and the truck power?thanks

[@kevin3648]

Bad Ass!! What else can ya say? That thing's a freakin BEAST!! Nice work bro!!

[@ISAACGARCIA58]

that's awesom! all u need is tire spacers in the front tires

[@SweetRc]

I may be a little late Lol. But I wanted to say, one way you can get the shrink wrap to go past the compasater is to slit the shrink wrap just a little to allow part of it to slide over

[@idoeverything733]

Hey Medic! Love that truck but i think with would be cool to go with some dirt grabbers from rc4wd just because they look like the bfg all terrain tires. Its your truck but i think that would be awesome looking

[@traxfan32]

I wonder if it will push in the turns...looks cool

[@GOODRICHBACHA]

GREAT, INCREDIBLE, SUPERIOR PROJECT, VERY COOL.WHICH LOWER LINKS USED? sorry for bad english

[@erikdravn]

That is totally AWESOME Bro!!!!!! One question... what is that esc? I've never seen one like that.

[@dawsonpeter3244]

Hey rc medic i saw the video of your jet boat and when I saw it I fell in love with it so I bought a boat and a brushless system for the boat any ideas on how to make it perform better

[@chillwind2005]

I want that truck so bad lol, looks great man!

[@Rainbowspecops]

Hey medic im kind of new to rc I have a 1/16 vxl e revo and i have 4 pairs of tires they are smaller and bigger if i put small ones on will it burn out the esc of the same thing with large tires?

[@MrPOLARISSPORTSMAN]

is that winch strong enough to pull out your truck or is it just to look like a real truck

[@798nathan]

why do u need two ESCs?? does it change ur way of driving meaning like can u run both ESCs at once ??

[@Mk4Garage69]

Medic, why dont u put 4-wheel steering on it?No really does that anymore. Luv the ford body.Its gonna look sick.

[@NileshBandaranayake]

@djmedic Hey , killer truck !!! love this build series :) but, dont you think it'll look more scale with 2.2's ?

[@WeBleedGreen1]

what color are you gonna paint that truck? i thinks its gonna look BEAST!

[@rivrhnd]

you make the coolest things thankyou

[@Ronh83]

Why not put the trailer hitch on the rear axle instead of the chassis? Does not mess up the handling, no need for the heavy rear springs. Make it pull like a tracktor ;)

[@johnm.gerard1718]

I'd like to know how these types of motors compare to the build you did with the dual Dewalt screw driver motors.

[@gamer199x]

I have watched almost all of your videos

[@apapapos1]

great build man! What capacitor are you using?? thanks!

[@hobby0rc]

Are you making the rear wider so you can cover up the rear wheels?

[@YoCzechYourself]

Medic I noticed that the drive shaft is for the axial ax10, can I still use it for my scx10?

[@MrJrum51]

just started following your vids, but you could also get some liquid electrical tape for the tricky bits like that esc.

[@bleachismilife]

are you going to put the dually wheel wells on it to or no ?

[@ToadFX]

DAFUQ! I thought it was a real life truck at first.. and then it got little. lol STILL BOSS!

[@MrDjdom66]

omg cant wait till its done and i can see it pull some propa heavy stuff, should also have a hemi inside it ;)

[@tythesnoman]

wonder how hard it would be to narrow the rear axle by 1/4" on each side to give it a more scale look .... that or make the front 1/4" wider

[@SCHMULBACH22]

@djmedic2008 so are you going to upgrade the servo to a hitec?

[@camaross92]

@djmedic2008 looking awesome bud. I suggest some wheel spacers for the front to even it out a little bit with the rear.

[@FEZZYPOWNS]

im really wanting to get into rc trucks, im looking for a good starter truck, preferbally 4x4 and under $300. what do u reccomend?

[@Stemp334]

cant wait for more vids on this. Its fricken awesome!!! Are you going to make fender flares? anyway SWEET!!!!

[@Tacotruck54121]

glad you went with a GMC/ Chevy body in the end

[@Danboarding]

Looks really wicked! This build is really coming along. Awesome work, Medic!

[@TylerVideoable]

what do i need for my 1st time mudder guys? somthing power and will go through lil endurance i got round 400 to spend

[@170turbo]

Note on flux: Its just a mild heat activated acid, it's just used to clean the surface of the metal your going to solder to.

[@PcandTech]

medic why don´t you put a little spacer between the wheels for better scale looks maybe a nut could work i think would help with realism . can´t wait to see it working

[@wolfbanger2124]

that looks wicked, after watching several videos a friend and i are gonna start some of our own RC adventures. Thanks for the videos we may be hooked. What would be a decent price range for a beginner? I can spend a lil cash because i know i will have to to keep it running. Pay a lil more now but better in the long run. Can you post a link or advice as where one may start. Thanks again for the info.

[@NYCMarineFish]

i got a Q. how did u conect the 2 motores and esc's to work together. to the recever box ???

[@benjaminstephan8639]

hey medic you should extend the frame and add double duals on it (it would look cool with tank tracks to) and to balance it just add some simple waits on the front of the frame (or in the front tires) please add chevy frame (CHEVY IS THE BEST JUST SAYIN)

[@Beaten4.8]

@djmedic2008 ive got a suggestion, when youre doing the final paint job and details, you should build it as a rescue/search and retrieve style truck, so if your wifes rig ever gets stuck, you can go in after it. like have a winch on the back to, (just an idea) i was watching the Wraith mud bog video and this idea just sort of came to me so i thought id pass it along.

[@matthewdavid4173]

those are beast that will be a good truck

[@jose11221j]

Best video on KZbin

[@foerester]

Awesome I love the soldering tips

[@floorit001]

"ohh two are picked up at once" haha love it, awesome build.....and damn thats an awesome trailer. Would be perfect for my "daily driver" hilux to pull my "tough truck ready" hilux :D

[@Brenracer]

just waterproof it with PLASTIC STUPH LOL! BTW how much are axials? I wanna get one. Subbed.

[@aking5583]

that looks awesome!! keep up the good work

[@richafered2]

hey its me agen and i was wundering if that after the dingo upgrade if you can get the electrix rc ruckus. its realy cheep. and its a monster truck so you can do bashing videos

[@S.L.C.Factory]

im going to get my erevo vxl 1/16 friday and i need a charger that can charge my baterie faster what charger do you recemend

[@cydstrange]

I went with longer shocks also and to get rid of the caster that throws off your steering angle I had to shorten the upper links.

[@HighTQCummins]

are you the same guy that made the talking dog videos? you sound the same side note, mad jelly of your collection

[@TRAXXASSLASH1256]

@djmedic2008 hahaha WOW!!!!but how much does it wiegh who made your trialer though?because i want 1 4 my 2wd slash

[@lornehutton7229]

WHAT SCALE SIZE WINCH DID YOU USE FOR TYHE AXAIL WRAITH ?
