I decided to not put the accessory rack on the back. What I did instead was I utilized part of the rack and installed it on the flat area of the pickup bed that is closest to the cab. Where the accessories are low down I did not use the the luggage carrier either too much weight over the rear. I had mine out on the Rocks all this morning and it performed very well for a Overland Trail type truck. The tires don't seem to give me any grief considering that it's not an out and out serious rock crawling machine. The electronics are sluggish at the startup and take a lot of practice without having to Goose it all the time. I don't want to have to get a expensive ESC

[@DoURC]

Sounds cool. I really love the look and love an overland rig. I just found it a bit disappointing tbh. It could have been so much better. With some upgrades it could be really good. 👍

[@johnnyhotshoe1292]

They need to make these 4 link from the factory instead of the front Y link. I do like the new tires and shocks. I do agree with the electronics being a downgrade. Great informative content, thank you!

[@DoURC]

Thanks very much 👍 Yeah it's a shame on the electronics, as it would have been a much better rtr with the old electronics. 👍

[@chudsrc]

Great honest review 👍. Looks like a case of getting the body separately and mounting to a FCX24 platform as the body is the only good thing about it 🤔

[@DoURC]

Thanks very much 👍 Yeah is a shame as it looks awesome, but is just kinda useless out the box!

[@frebify]

Just adding the injora brushed esc was an amazing upgrade to my power wagon.

[@DoURC]

Excellent to here. The Spectrum electronics do seem to be the main problem tbh. 👍

[@taylor22222222]

At least we know it's the electronics.. my ax24 4ws has the exact same spektrum rx/esc. The only upside on them is that they have a channel 2 🙌 I just plugged in the tiny lizard pro in there and it drove way better--tons of more slower movement control on rocks and inclines.

[@backshedrc]

The body does look very cool, especially when you were trail running.

[@DoURC]

Yeah it's a fantastic looking rig. I love the Overland look. 👍😎

[@RallyandTrail]

Great video 😎 I was thinking about picking one of these up but I think I’ll give it a miss now 👍🏁

[@DoURC]

Thanks very much 👍 Yeah there's definitely much better rigs out there for the same money. 👍

[@JiluMiah-ek2rd]

The slow crawl was hurting my senses. lol. Even if it was struggling to get over the obstacles, it would have been nicer. Plus out of habit, I think everyone will try slow crawl then that pulse width or hum will drive… me crazy definitely

[@DoURC]

Rubbish wasn't it. Was like I was testing a $50 RC not a $150! Do like the body though! 🤣👍😁

[@Rcfull]

Good video and nice car friend👍💪😜👋

[@DoURC]

Thanks very much 👍

[@JamesDirtRC]

I want one to build. :) I like that body style

[@DoURC]

The body is great isn't it, exact reason I got it. Love the overland look. 👍😎

[@adampsrcs3487]

Gotta love a good power wagon body. Great content mate.. Are you going to sst on Sunday? Plus can you pay entry on arrival? I won't really no how many tickets I will need until sat eve

[@DoURC]

Thanks very much 👍 Yeah I should be there Sunday. You have to book online, last booking day is tomorrow. 👍

[@adampsrcs3487]

@@DoURC Ok cool. Is that for the pay and play aswell

[@RabbiJesus]

I’d be curious to see the same tires on those obstacles but without any foam inserts.

[@DoURC]

Yeah they did seem a little stiff, so may be better with no foams or softer foams. Just a bit disappointing they didn't perform out the box. 👍

[@JUSTHAVEFUNRC]

I blame the proline wheels. They need two more bigger vent holes and a new beadlocks. Then they do pretty darn good. I took them off the power wagon and put the, on a more deserving rig.

[@DoURC]

@JUSTHAVEFUNRC Ah ok, good to know they can work. Just a shame Axial didn't do them right. Kinda funny them being like check out these awesome tyres that we've made not work! 🤣🤦

[@AdamDay1979]

Great vid the electrics are not good I agree the previous version is better, I swapped out to a 50t motor improved the drivability alot

[@DoURC]

Thanks very much 👍 Yeah I think I'll try the old electronics in this and see how much better it is. I think it's got potential, but as an rtr it's pretty useless tbh! 🤣🤦

[@adampsrcs3487]

Been getting all excited for sst Sunday and I've just found out my lift has let me down.. gutted is an understatement.

[@DoURC]

Ah gutted, that's no good. No other way you can get there?

[@adampsrcs3487]

@@DoURC No unfortunately. My electric bike won't quite get me there and home.. it's only like 40mins away from me aswell but I don't no anyone else who can take me..shame

[@adampsrcs3487]

@@DoURC No trains or buses go anywhere close to it either from my little town of melksham lol

[@Super1handed_rc]

You say the original scx24 but the bronco is a V2 the deadbolt and c10 are V1 and the esc isn’t great

[@DoURC]

OK sorry, previous model. 👍 Slow speed control on the Bronco was much better. 👍

[@Off-roading1]

Hey I’m getting into RC Land Rover is there a good 110 with Difs idc which wheels but any recommendations for under 200$? And how could I water proof it?

[@DoURC]

What scale you looking for, as that's going to be one of the main drivers for price. You could get a 1/18 TRX4M Defender for $150, but imo there's much better mini's for the money. If you're looking at tenth scale, you'll struggle to get a decent rig, especially with a Defender body for $200. Other option is buy a decent chassis and put something like the Killerbody D90 hardbody on it. 👍

[@DoURC]

Oh also some come waterproof, but generally the less you pay, the less likely it'll be waterproof or decent. 👍

[@federnais2000]

Nice video....

[@DoURC]

Thanks very much 👍

[@bencrocker9444]

you wasnt joking with just how bad thoose electronics was may aswell be a switch either on or off i just also dont understand thoose using thoose tiny 030 motors aswell always found them useless aswell

[@DoURC]

Yeah they were rubbish, baffles me how they thought, yeah this is better! 🤣🤦 Yeah it's one tiny motor. Tbf it wasn't toooo bad in my old Bronco, but be sooo much better with a 130 or something in there. 👍

[@James-bristol]

I do like the scx24s but the new v3 electrics is a big let down

[@DoURC]

Yeah they just seem rubbish. They took something that worked and made it worse! Bonkers! 🤦

[@idan678]

is the electronics that the deadbolt have are better?

[@James-bristol]

@@idan678 yeah I got the deadbolt and the v2 great little crawlers with few added bits

[@DoURC]

@James-bristol Yeah I really like my old Bronco, apart from the shocks, it performed much better than the newer version. 👍

[@Friskee62]

The TRX4M is a far better rig then this thing out of the box. Add the slow gear set for $5 and it is really a capable rig...

[@DoURC]

I wouldn't call the TRX4M far better, but better yes. Spend the same money and get a Hobbyplus or FMS rig and they're even better than both. 👍 Or the Redcat Ascent 👍

[@simplybeanjelly]

Crazy that with how much this costs you'd get better electronics in an rtr wpl c24 than this. Shame on axial for releasing this crap.

[@DoURC]

Tbh I think the SCX24 electronics are still better, they're waterproof at least. But for the price difference, it's a bit of a joke! I don't know why they changed them, old electronics were better imo. 👍

[@ryand4786]

Wow does that thing make some horrible noises .

[@DoURC]

🤣 Annoying isn't it! The sound of electronics whining! 😬

[@Casitascrawlers]

It makes no sense to put such bad electronics in a decent looking rig seriously why not just sell it as a roller if your gunna use terrible electronics.

[@DoURC]

I know, I don't understand how big brands can test it and be like, yeah that's great, ship it! Especially when the previous model was better! 🤣🤦

[@Casitascrawlers]

@@DoURC it seems like they rushed it but as far as crawling is concerned Spectrum doesn’t have any really good systems they seem to be pretty good at making electronics for fast RC’s but you don’t hear anyone saying they have any good Crawling electronics & Hobbywing just blows them away.

[@Rc_impulse]

I wish I didn’t buy this and saved for 1/10 Living in India we don’t get anything and I had a friend fly it with him from Singapore not worth the effort :( This version is absolute garbage from an American brand to dish out poor electronics and much more. My first and perhaps last axial. The Chinese r killing it in mini crawlers

[@DoURC]

That's a real shame, especially if it went so far globally to get to you. Its really not good is it. I think with a better ESC it would be much better. You could see if you could pick up a different ESC maybe from the previous SCX24 version, or even from a different model. In my opinion FMS are dominating the mini market at the moment. I really like my brushless Hobbyplus CR18P Evo Pro too. 👍
