Which is Better? FMS FCX24 K5 Blazer vs Axial SCX24 Bronco

[@flat-out]

Excellent, I'm leaning towards the FCX24 Max Smasher but I just acquired a TRX4 Sport kit with Traxx to my fleet. I like how FMS upward trend their products are good.

[@DoURC]

Ah nice, I've always fancied a Traxx kit, how you finding it? Yeah the smasher does look cool and good fun. 👍

[@flat-out]

The Traxx is good so far but I haven't tested it outside yet. I have a shorts vid in my channel here if you look at my rig a sneak peek of the Traxx. When I got the TRX4 Sport Kit I added the Traxx but upgraded it with full bearings so that it won't strain the motor and servo that much because the Traxx itself just comes with bushings.

@@flat-out Thanks for the reply, I'll take a look. 👍

[@stunod-RC]

I’ve enjoyed all the comparisons. Have you considered trying all 3 with the same 56mm tires with a brass weighted wheel.. it’s the basic upgrade nearly everyone does immediately.. thx.

[@DoURC]

Glad you enjoyed them all. 👍 Yeah wheels and tyres will be the first upgrade for each of them, great suggestion. 👍

[@UncleKibaki]

Hi! Would you recommend the FMS k5 blazer or the axial scx24 Chevy?

[@DoURC]

I'd take the FCX24 K5 tbh, it performs better and is better value for money imo. 👍

[@jeffydezzy7503]

The Velcro could easily be replaced and upgraded with 3m double sided tape along with some magnets

[@DoURC]

Yeah, would need to be thin magnets though, otherwise you're pushing the body up higher, depending on where you mount them. 👍

Really happy with my fcx24 but every time i roll it a piece of my heart breaks cuz its such a good looking body. Edit: ive been trying to find a way to make the body less top heavy and if you take the bedcap off it shaves some weight off. The black plastic stinger bumper also gives you a little bit more exit clearance than stock too. Still trying to find a good back bumper tho.

[@DoURC]

🤣 Yeah it is a lovely body. All my RCs generally get beaten up, so I didn't mind so much, bit that first scratch is always the worst and makes you cringe. 🤣 Yeah it is very top heavy. Have you converted to oil filled shocks yet?

[@ghostinng274]

@@DoURC not yet since I don't have any oil right now, but it's on my list of stuff to do lol

[@DoURC]

@Ghostinng Ah ok, same here but I've got the oil! 🤣👍

Génial merci pour cette vidéo 📼

[@DoURC]

Thanks very much for watching and commenting 👍😎

[@The_RC_Family]

Nice comparison, I am looking forward to seeing how these go when upgraded!

[@DoURC]

Thanks very much. 👍 Yeah me too, I'm planning on starting on the upgrades soon and then I'll compare the FCX24, SCX24 and TRX4M together to see how they fair as we do the upgrades. 👍

[@matttucker7348]

How durable is the fcx 24?

[@DoURC]

Yeah it's tough, it's taken the same amount of punishment as my trx4m and no issues, unlike my trx4m! 👍

[@TheSpaceCoupe57Chevy]

I want the fms but i know as soon as i get it the traxxas trx4m blazer k5 will drop 😂 and thats what im waiting for

[@DoURC]

🤣 Yeah probably. I actually prefer the FCX24 to the TRX4M tbh. 👍

[@TheSpaceCoupe57Chevy]

@@DoURC I ordered the FCX24 after watching your videos 🤣 Thank you for the reviews they helped me pick the Blazer! Gets here Friday

[@DoURC]

@TheSpaceCoupe57Chevy No worries, hope you enjoy it. Check out my 4 mods video for it ic you haven't already. Definitely oil fill those shocks, makes it so much nicer. 👍

[@TheSpaceCoupe57Chevy]

@@DoURC Thank you and Im already on them 👍

[@DoURC]

@TheSpaceCoupe57Chevy Awesome, hope they're helpful. Any questions drop me a new comment so I don't miss it and can reply 👍

[@normhienn1881]

[@DoURC]

🤣 I do actually prefer it too. 👍😁
