SCX24 HARD PARK VDUB DEMENTOR SURPRISE BUILD - LGRP, MOFO, KTECH, NSDRC, KILLR, MAZZ, FURITEK, TREAL

[@tbarnesout]

Oh wow now we are teased. Looks like I’m staying up wrenching in order to catch this. Can’t wait brotha 👊

[@bcochener]

Should be a fun one!

[@tbarnesout]

Yeah man, such a great build. Love the attention to detail and the cleanliness of it. Perfect build as always.

[@bcochener]

@@tbarnesout Appreciate that TB. I think it is the sickest chassis (no body) I have seen, minus maybe the DUV coming close. Thanks so much for coming to the premiere as well! I need to do that more often, the live chat was a blast.

[@tbarnesout]

@@bcochenerof course man. Yeah I 100% agree on the chassis. The design of it just flows. You’re going to love running it too, crazy what it can do. Yeah on the premiere I was watching but not going to lie I didn’t find out about the live chat until after the video ended and I took it out of full screen. 😂😂

[@bcochener]

@@tbarnesout haha… too funny man! Well, next time you can chat more!

[@manson9083]

I've had my hardpark vdub bug since they released them, I absolutely love it. It's my most capable rig out of ten scx24s I have from ackers gecko chassis to a texoma slayer chassis and everything in-between.

[@bcochener]

Wow, that is pretty high praises right there! Loved the build experience and uniqueness of it. I’ll have to compare it to some of my most capable ones, but I think you’re right…

[@VetteWay2Fast]

Wow great build man! Looks amazing with the clean wire management and color match. Really liking this dementor chassis, think its going to be my next project.

[@bcochener]

It’s a fantastic little chassis! Thanks for watching!

[@anthonybarto4721]

I’m testing something right now and I bet it’s the same thing 🤙🏽

[@bcochener]

Hmm… who knows?

[@wingnutbert9685]

HOLY SHINTO!!!!!!! How did I miss this video!!!! That is one of my all time favourite builds anywhere!!!! You just have such a talent for putting parts together. Not just aesthetically but so super cleanly! blown away by those KTech parts. Fantastic anodizing! (I'm an 80's/early 90's mountain biker and an unabashed annodized parts whore!) LOL! And that bug chassis is so nice! Love your builds, but being up here in Canada, it's depressing too as it's not feasible to buy stuff from these makers in the States. 😥 Dare to dream!

[@bcochener]

Hey man, long time! Thanks so much for the kind words. This little bug really impressed me with the build. If you’re digging the K-Tech stuff, I used more on my Roo build. Hope you had a good Holiday, cheers!

[@rc_guy_miami]

OMG, this build is insane! You rocked it out of the park! Cheers!

[@bcochener]

Thanks bud!

[@sammyboswelldirtybrc7580]

That’s one sic build Brian love it 😍 🔥🔥🔥👍

[@bcochener]

Thanks Sammy, it sure is!

Beautiful ride my friend

[@bcochener]

Thank you much!

[@AgeOrmstad]

Realy sweet smooth rig👌

[@bcochener]

Appreciate that!

[@christopherpaluck737]

This build is AMAZING!

[@bcochener]

Haha! Appreciate that buddy!

[@local24_]

Loooove the purple 🤙 great build as usual!

[@bcochener]

Oh yeah, it came out looking fantastic in purple! Thanks brother!

[@gibsonlife573]

One more thing I would recommend if you put a little touch with super glue around those little pieces of brass in the skid plate cuz they do come loose but I am quite rough on my stuff

[@bcochener]

Good to know, thanks for the tip!

[@giopirmisashvili5514]

❤

[@CiRCuit-Breakers-RC]

Man this thing looks great. Makes me want to build a comp chassis which is not my norm lol

[@bcochener]

The looks are what drove me to it as well. But now after building 2 HP Dementors, I would still build the third type. They are that good of a kit. Great stuff from HP! Cheers!

[@CiRCuit-Breakers-RC]

@@bcochener good to know. I geek out on building as scale as possible with my rigs and never found a reason to build a comp rig as I don’t really do comps but I want to build this rig now lol. I also want to build a bouncer buggy as that shits fun in the 1:1 world.

[@bcochener]

@@CiRCuit-Breakers-RC I’ve got the new LGRP comp frame and R-Factor body/cage kit for it. Looking forward to that one. Really enjoyed the LGRP Ripper build. Super scale. This new one looks promising…

[@DrKrawl]

Amazing build as always, my HP buggy is on the way!

[@bcochener]

Thanks so much! That’s awesome you were able to snag one too! Fun little build, hope this helps you out a bit.

[@snorrevonflake]

Awesome, now if that was actually available for sale. Everytime i look at their website almost everything is "sold out".

[@bcochener]

Had a big drop last Saturday. Seems HP generally restocks on Saturdays, so keep checking.

[@vbspeed7571]

Looks super 🤙

[@bcochener]

Thanks brother!

[@gibsonlife573]

I love hard Park Chad is doing amazing thing but be careful with that skid plate man I broke a couple of them over tightening screws and just big falling off the side of a big rock and they break but he is supposed to be getting them cut out of Delran soon I run actually the cheat code in mine

[@rcsteve710_]

If you need low blow steering linka hmu! Looking insane 🤯

[@bcochener]

Thanks buddy! I’ll holler if I need one!

[@JUSTHAVEFUNRC]

Oh yeah that thing it’s gonna climb walls. I did have a video request because I haven’t seen anybody post but with the hardbody crawler co FJ. Are you able to take off the doors, roof, side windows and run it as a sort of soft top. Minus the soft tip?

[@bcochener]

Heck yeah it is! Thanks! -and oh yeah, the doors, upper back half & roof are removable. Some guys I have seen build the rear tube roll cage for it. Looks sick.

[@bcochener]

did you see this one I did?: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eYOUYZh4mcSqr7c

[@JUSTHAVEFUNRC]

@@bcochener yeah I did, I’ve been following your work since the wtfj45. Gonna build my own at some point.

[@DavidTaylor-qx9ii]

SWEET looking rig!!! 😍 What do you normally do for NON vented rims to get that SQUISHY effect to the tires? Leather punch to the tires?

[@bcochener]

Yes, exactly that method. Thanks, cheers!

[@DavidTaylor-qx9ii]

@@bcochener if it's not too much trouble, exactly how do you punch the tires? Diameter punch, how many holes per tire, best hole location and does it degrade the tires in any way? THX AGAIN!!

[@bcochener]

@@DavidTaylor-qx9ii I use a rotary punch tool set on the smallest diameter. I do 2 holes on the tread, opposite of each other on the wheel. Doesn’t degrade the tire. If you get water in them and don’t get it out, it could degrade foams. That’s why the 2 holes, helps expel dirt and water.

[@bcochener]

Tool like this www.amazon.com/Revolving-including-Screwdriver-Grinding-Saddle/dp/B06XRDBGY6/ref=mp_s_a_1_19?crid=1LZ602IMMT7CG&keywords=leather+punch&qid=1694469788&sprefix=leather+punch%2Caps%2C205&sr=8-19

Do you have a link for that magical box 😮

[@bcochener]

😂 unfortunately magic boxes don’t come with any info… other than a nice note from Chad.

[@rcjoe406]

@@bcochener lol Chad's a nice friend to have

[@bdog7262]

Can you tell me the exact length of your upper and lower links? Please I bought a dementor kit but I can’t get the front to work. Seems like the upper links are way too short. I look at your build and I can’t get the same holes to work🤦🏻‍♂️

[@bcochener]

Fronts: lowers are 50mm, uppers 39mm. Approximately from measuring on the rig. I’m using Mofos BSME on the forward most position with the servo.

[@bdog7262]

@@bcochener yep that’s what I got as far as the servo mount. As far as links…. Uppers are 40, and lower 58…. Chad tells me that’s right, but it doesn’t work. He sent me pictures of his using the upper holes in the front with the motor facing forward, but I can’t get them in there because it hits the motor. I don’t get it….

[@bcochener]

@@bdog7262 I think Chad gave you the V2 link lengths. I used those on my DUV, much longer lower that gave a bit more caster. The ones on this bug are the measurements I gave you. I'm not running the motor forward on this VDUB though...

[@bcochener]

@@bdog7262 check out my DUV build. That is using the longer lower fronts. Also has the forward motor on the HP DW1.5 trans. What transmission are you using?

@@bcochener hard park DWS

[@LARANUD]

Approximately how much did the hole rig cost?

[@bcochener]

I don’t keep track, but just roughly adding the parts up & both sets of wheels, probably north of 5.

[@gibsonlife573]

Man I've had a lot of laughs on them both for gears for some reason it's like it's clicking along like especially in slow crawl or downhill I think too much under driver overdrive he's really hurt you

[@bcochener]

Yeah, I’ll just have to see. I watched a buddy’s 50% UD rig run and It was killing it.

[@gibsonlife573]

I just don't see it out the nsrd maybe on 8.4 Emmy faster stronger I mean it's pretty strong now and it works good but I'm telling you right now that shift RC Servo is a straight monster and I'm used to the mofo cervone which is another monster but literally Fury Tech ESC cannot handle it so I ordered the fight on to see if it can handle I guess I could run a external bec but I don't want to go through all that

[@bcochener]

Yeah that Shift servo is something else! I’ve had good luck with the Ultimate running them or the Pro with NSDRCs BEC.

[@odargoo4298]

@Bcochener Now you've sold your first car PLEASE sell me this one!!!
