Are the Ring and pinion gears on the stance sintered metal gears or machined metal?

[@TrokaRC]

This will help few of us beginners get more comp oriented. Cool review.

[@westdesertwheeler]

Certainly the easy button for performance rigs

[@scalebuildersguild]

Excellent overview Logan, but the driving is clutch, as always! Little jealous I didn't go for the tennis ball green color!

[@slam854]

I just canceled my Redcat Ascent 1/10 Blue with Horizon Hobby. Been 2wks with no response from them. The Vanquish Stance is a back order item but worth the wait. Anxious to start rock crawling but patience will pay off. Thank you for your review.

[@jerryvolpini7987]

Killer review! Love that you did this in the work shop and gave a thorough walk through - more like this, please! 👍

The way you put the video together was just as impressive as the truck. Great job Logan, from the comments I read I see a lot of folks getting great information on how to be a better driver and the more technical aspects of line choice/truck placement, tuning etc.. I enjoy the vibe from the WDW team. Have a great 2024.. cheers 👍🇦🇺

[@westdesertwheeler]

Thanks this one definitely had more work and effort put into it so thanks for the compliment. I’m glad people are enjoying what I do and awe they learn from it

[@WRIGHT-GARAGE]

I picked up a grey one and started a log book. very impressed. i did vent my tires after first run and swapped the wheel nuts to traxxas flanged.

[@rickyrobson7350]

Another great review. Being relatively new to rc ive learned huge volumes of info with parts setup, truck setup, and and increased my driving ability due to your vids alone. I thank you for every vid you have and look forward to more. Thanks a lot my friend

[@rcarty419]

This looks very nice for a beginner lcg crawler. Nice to see a quality tire….the size of them lol like they helped hobby drop…that was crazy cool of you to let him this too!! You are the master of trailing and chatting!!

[@jayprevett6657]

I wonder how a capra would like the VRD parts

[@brentlykins7281]

I’m getting excited because companies are finally making some great RTRs both small and big for those wanting a good solid rig out of the box. Great review, with information, run time, and your opinions and comments. Now to get this or the kit 🤔

[@arthopfer]

Now to wait for the carbon vs stance video😂

[@YNOTRC]

Yes please before I put one in my cart 😂

[@PleasureAfterWorkRcCrawlers]

lol

[@maxwell5428]

@@YNOTRCI’m not a pro by any means. Actually I’m a complete Ametaur but if your on the fence of the vrd rtr and kit. Get the kit. We all know if you got the rtr you’d be modding it anyway :)

[@YNOTRC]

@@maxwell5428 good point the mods will fill the cart muahahaha🤓

[@thatprcrawlerguy187]

Vrd kit still better. You gonna pay $70 extra for this and still have to replace all the electronics. Though the dual stage foams make a compelling argument 🤔

[@vidwiz12345]

Sounds like a great rig. How does it compare to the Capra if one was to add 4ws? (Assuming that is even possible)

[@mkrcbuilds]

Great video Logan, Just left the V-Live and came to check out what you had to say about it. Impressive Truck for sure... Thank You...

[@davidjfife]

Great review and video. Just came across these rigs. My old comp crawlers need replaced.

[@PleasureAfterWorkRcCrawlers]

Its time for rtr's that run out of the box like this one...good work Vanquish👌

[@westdesertwheeler]

I agree!

[@Toodles77]

I jumped into to the live release late today and was like wtf?!?!?! Their sight wouldn’t even take my order! …so I jumped over to amain and got a few xtra points for myself! …..I still have a VRD carbon in my closet to build!! I couldn’t help myself! Glad u did this review man!

[@MysticRiverRC]

Awesome in depth review! I had kinda had my heart set on the Fordyce, but this is a compelling offering from Vanquish. Thanks.

[@westdesertwheeler]

Both are great depends if you want a trail truck or a performance truck.

[@nicholasstephey8475]

Thank you for the review Logan

[@jakequaempts5234]

That’s a impressive RTR🎉 keep’em coming

[@kennyledbetter-g2h]

Sick truck Logan thanks for the video, I'm getten one.

[@oknights112]

Great video and explanations about the features!!!

[@kevin_fine]

This is a really cool looking and great performing truck! Definitely going to pick one of these up!

[@westdesertwheeler]

I’m having fun with it for sure

[@JohnSmith-os7zm]

What is better the Vanquish or the Redcat Acsent with Tires and Fusion Pro Upgrade?

[@westdesertwheeler]

The VRD is better stock than a Redcat with the upgrades

[@offroad1911]

You’re sneaking an extra percent in there cause 6+17 is 23 over here in Tennessee. Lol Great informative video as always and glad to see you are included in the small group of receiving trucks early to review.

[@Bradkozakandfriends1830]

Great video Logan. Thanks.

[@adamventr]

Awesome vid! I have a semi built out Phoenix, but have really been thinking of the carbon and outfitting a rig that way. Now I have a 3rd option with this video. Option #1. Stick with my Phoenix and kit it out more. #2. Build out a carbon. #3 Build out a Stance rig. Pretty new to RCs, so any advice or recommendations are always welcome.

[@westdesertwheeler]

If you want the most performance the carbon is the answer. If you don’t want to build a kit the RTR is a great start.

[@HoundStuff]

Nice work, Logan! It would be interesting to me to see the Fordyce head-to-head with the Stance.... just to see what the gap exactly is for these RTRs. I know they are different beasts, but, still 😀 Cheers!

[@HobbyDrop]

Dude this thing is sick!!! I hadn’t heard anything about it until this video…..dang…I need this thing 😂 also, love the dumpster!

[@OuterLimits_RC]

Great review video. Makes me think about purchasing one of these trucks

[@brianmorrison2846]

Thanks I was curious what it's about.

[@pwrofgrayskull]

Solid review, well done! This thing looks to be a killer. 👍✌️

[@camrendoucette5592]

They need to make a builders kit for this for sure and I mean with the aluminum chassis not the carbon

[@westdesertwheeler]

Hmmm the kit is upgraded in many ways. Interesting to hear you want that.

[@camrendoucette5592]

@@westdesertwheeler just thinking they might be able to sell it at a lower price

[@brucebartlett1950]

Got the carbon kit it's almost as good as my berg moa waiting for the under axle servo mount no hills in Texas lots of lakes with rock

[@jasonlund4750]

Looks like a solid rig. To bad they didn't have this when I started. Lol

[@jasonmadore9447]

Just getting back into rc crawlers again and don’t know we’re to start just moved to St. George

[@shaynejenkins446]

Sand hollow or in any general direction if your in St. George.

[@donniehunter309]

Nice to see this come out but the rebranded 1060 esc is a big miss on a performnce rig RTR or not.

[@1LACOSRC]

Vanquish doing Vanquish things! Solid review dude🔥🤙

[@westdesertwheeler]

Thanks for watching dude! I bet you could get it to do some wild lines in your area

[@1LACOSRC]

Been running a similar spec, chopped c-channel, lightweight Phoenix out here a bit..not too shabby🤘

[@mikeobrien4104]

Best Video review here thanks for a great video

[@rcstumpjumpers2049]

Great information. But I have questions: transmission and portals have overdrive compared to what? Front to rear tire rotation? Overdrive is simply a higher gear. I'm not understanding exactly what you mean by this. Are you saying that the internal gearing in the transmission is different front to rear. Different portal gearing front to rear? Also, the steering gear is mounted on the front axle, the front bumper is not as wide as the windshield, so does this mean it's a class III RTR straight out of the box? Great channel dude. I would sure like to crawl with yawl out West. Nothing but love from the East.

[@westdesertwheeler]

You understand overdrive, it is overdriving the front tires in relation to the rears and it works as you guessed. Different ratios to each. As far as the bumpers from what I understand class 1 mandates bumper to be windshield width and class 2 must be wider than the chassis so I think this is legal

[@shawnthomas444]

Great video!!

[@cadenfarmer7930]

I need help on reversing the steering mine goes backwards

[@patha8048]

What Battery do you use for that crawler ?

[@scottoblander9419]

this could be the perfect truck for a class 2 spec class

[@johann1510]

i ordered mine

[@henryoak2001]

Will this make the same lines as the carbon kit with the same tires?

[@RockSideRC]

Great video. Love the truck. Does anyone know how much this truck is going for? I’d like to add this to the fleet

[@westdesertwheeler]

VP site said 499 today

[@shaynejenkins446]

Kit is the way to go for this rig.

[@westdesertwheeler]

Both are great, not everyone wants to build a kit

[@owenonmilk69]

Will the rock pirate INTERCEPTOR CHASSIS fit on on this car?

[@westdesertwheeler]

No but their new VRD will

[@OutFitX]

Where would a Servo Winch be installed?

[@westdesertwheeler]

You will have to get the servo mount from vanquish or come up with something

[@Fortes_RC_Adv]

Nice body and performance 👌 😍 Happy new year 🎉

[@CasperRc81]

I’m not advocating for this rtr but in my experience when my normal larger in O.D lower links become my high center point of no forward drive or being ejected left to right I wish for a smaller diameter link. I personally like 1/8” diameter solid rod tap and die 8/32 with a traxxas rod. Easy to bend for hi clear ore they will banana in shape over time which is nice, so the rod is more capable in the trade off of strength but meh. I understand that the parts price is far superior in the kit but I’m with you in the amount of over/under being to much so for me I don’t even care about the machined gear set up. Probably have to set aside some money for the machined ring and pinion gears as these are powdered metal. I’m liking this a lot. But I already have a scx10ii. Based rock pirate interceptor build and a half built toyzuki v2 j have never tried.
