Vanquish VRD Build!

[@Josepharrington-j6w]

Dude you're a BOSS That was my biggest concern would the Hobbywing fusion pro fit thanks that was an excellent build video very informative have ordered my kit as well 👍🏿💯🤟🏿

[@SoCalCrawlers]

Got mine all together yesterday, and its Awesome! Getting the comp wagon body painted tomorrow !

[@RuisRcAdventures]

Looked like a very simple straightforward build. Look forward to the 1st drive dude 👍

[@iaqmaster]

Had to watch again now that I just got mine Christmas! Great job!

[@archerash6695]

I grease everything that touches each other and spins. Everything. With Crazy Grease.. wicked stuff. Webs to the gears.. stays on.. love it.

[@RichieD088]

Always fun watching , get editing ! .. 👍✌️

[@keldonator]

Wow that thing looks very quality

[@bouncingnoise]

Nice built video, I’m always really enjoying your content 😊…can’t wait for our first VRD build, delivery’s announced for Thursday 🤩

[@bouncingnoise]

Just stopped building my VRD, because the 1800kv Fusion (not SE) I planned to install doesn’t fit, it’s about 3mm too long😖 I’ll have to watch your stubby conversion video again, no idea what to buy now, yet. Only thing I know is that it can’t be one of these screaming escs, it has to be quiet😅

[@samoanpride753]

You said here's the d-bag!🤣👍🔥

[@RobKingRC]

Nicely done on the build video Joe! Nice Crawler.

[@iaqmaster]

Great video Joe! Sweet crawler!

[@TheN3xusZ80]

Absolutely beautiful!

[@FarmerFpv]

These build videos help me relax while I'm working on my own projects. That thing is going to be a rock beast! I just 3d printed an extended swingarm for my promoto Mx that has a built in Jack Shaft so that I can run a full size 2.2 Proline Badland tire in the swingarm. The Jack shaft is 1 to 1 ratio. It's just to bring the sprocket out far enough to clear the the 2 5/8" wide Proline badlands. Should be nuts! I figured I don't have to gear down as the badland tire is not as tall it's just twice as wide. Stock tire is only 1 5/8" wide. a whole 1 inch wider rear. Hopefully testing works out good. i want to climb some steep hills like my full size KTM extended swingarm dirtbike. I just copied it jack shaft and everything. If it works out are you interested in trying it?

[@ExocagedRC]

Now that’s cool!

[@robertwermis2971]

Nice build but I wish they would use an aluminum shock top, on my phoenix all 4 leak out of the bleed hole.

[@gatorrcgames]

Great looking kit and build!

[@AnySumptionBanter]

great video to see this being put together. Good tips, good video angles. If you know more about how to fix things like slop, any pros and cons, things to watch out for (like for noobs whom typically make silly mistakes). Thank you!

[@garywynegarsvikingrc843]

Looks amazing!

[@Kernsy71]

Very helpful video! Thanks

[@ChilltimeRc2.4GHz]

super nice build🤩. I wanted the Axial Pro at first, but now it's the VRD 👍. When will it be available in Germany? I think your videos are just great, I wanted to say 👍🤩

[@rc-daily]

Looks like it should do well!!

[@mikerainey3847]

Dang, I might have to get one of these...!

[@princefpv1]

thanks bro

[@trejodaniel]

Great Video dude!!!!! Question, does the kit brings any way to mount a winch? Or that’s not a thing?

[@vintagerc9173]

Nice build I really like the way you made it look simple and straight forward 👍 The Hobbywing 555 brushed motor will fit also with no cutting or grinding required. It’s 58.5mm in length and cost only $21.99 at AMAIN

[@rcfuncrawler8500]

Super Video und sehr ausführlich erklärt! Ist schon auf meiner Wunschliste😂. Die Materialien von Vanquish sind schon TOP. Eine Frage: kann der Overdrive geändert werden oder ist der immer bei 37% ?

[@ExocagedRC]

It’s always 37%. Not selectable like the Pro is

[@rcfuncrawler8500]

Vielen Dank für diese Info!😊

[@sethledger6309]

Did you not have a ton of play in the shaft for the spur gear?

[@TanJ197]

We need a budget vs baller build face off. Red cat Ascent decked out vs this vanquish chassis

[@ExocagedRC]

Hmmmm. Well I can do that.

[@keldonator]

​@@ExocagedRCPlease do, that would be awesome. I got the Redcat and am now eyeing this VRD lol 😅

[@jdjew4003]

Hell yeah!

[@A-a-ron01220]

Hey, did the kit include the loctite and other few greases or oils? Cant seem to find that info anywhere

[@AgeOrmstad]

Very nice and informativ video 👍

[@jonthomas8487]

With this, the SCX10 Pro and the Ascent I see a lot less full custom build rigs in 2024. Heck going the route of the Vanquish or SCX10 pro you are looking at a full build less radio under $700 but going the old way it was easily a $1000 money pit

[@derrickwroe7335]

Is it possible to fit a dig on that transmission Joe?

[@thatcherdawkins3359]

Why not flip your rear links to increase belly clearance/ break over.

[@ExocagedRC]

I built is like the instructions say and it works great like this.

[@archerash6695]

You look so excited.. lol

[@nate4024]

Which do you prefer vrd or 10 pro

[@RC-Closer1313]

Shouldn’t that pinion be out more to bite the gear better?

[@michaelchoate2810]

Hey joe,can you check to see if injora rims fit that? I can't afford vanquish wheels the same time I grab my kitvand fusion pro so i need to temporarily use wheels I have. Tyia bud.

[@ExocagedRC]

yeah I've run several cheap wheels without much issue, on a few I did have to shave the top of the portal covers but that worked out fine.

[@timmedeiros1541]

Did you have any trouble with the large wheel nuts I have the same set of wheels but could not tighten the wheel nuts up enough I used 3 different nut drives is there something I am missing never had a problem like this.

[@johngisbourne7197]

grind the nutdriver down or buy a vanquish nutdriver.

[@garywynegarsvikingrc843]

Dang dude don’t hit on the inner part of that bearing lol

[@ExocagedRC]

I used the tractor and a 32lb sledge to seat it properly.

[@bdonner01]

When installing the drive shafts do I leave a little sloppiness or add shims until it seem tight with no movement/ no slop?

[@ExocagedRC]

if you need shims between the driveshaft and input bearing at axle, use just enough to reduce the slop to nearly 0 no need to have it tight

[@thatprcrawlerguy187]

Never thought I would see the day where vanquish would sell something with cast iron. 😬

[@needlejuse1113]

Awesome

[@ShoddyRC]

My transmission gears seem to be clicking. I need to take it apart and see what I missed.

[@adam_chevyss]

I have my servo like the manual shows, but having the 900 smart label upside down is bothering me. I'll be swapping to passenger side.

[@ExocagedRC]

Yeah I know!! LoL

[@manpio708]

I can only afford to like it and can't afford to buy it😂

[@CM-ig2pf]

👍😁😎✌️

[@old-rcplane-phart]

👍

[@TheLilhulk1111]

Pinion and spur not lined up

[@brandonseals6732]

Do u chew tobacco or dip??

[@ExocagedRC]

No dude. No.

[@old-rcplane-phart]

👍😁👈

[@CM-ig2pf]

👍😁✌️

[@butzaman5139]

It’s like watching RC P0rn!

[@brandonseals6732]

Good content... terrible music...

[@needlejuse1113]

😂 it wasn't that bad, cant please em all

[@ExocagedRC]

Don’t have much choice due to copywrite issues. Gotta be canned junk.

[@kjflyte5088]

Bye bye redcat..lol.

[@demantoid418]

That is cool thanks
