How to make the RC4WDTrail Finder 3 the best looking, best handling and most reliable RC truck in the world.

Holy hell. So first off, you do realize all you did was make a TF3 into a Tamiya HighLift Hilux. Second, I wonder how many people will not understand the satire in place here. This may be the best RC video on KZbin.
@turksandjerps2 жыл бұрын
HighLift with smaller diffs but yes I appreciate that truck it’s one of the vehicles that got my attention in scale RC. Also if they don’t like it they can have a nice day.
@JSAsher2 жыл бұрын
You’ve truly outdone yourself and oneself. You made a trailfinder -1. You took a 3 subtracted 2 and made a -1. This is far superior since it has the 1/7 scale 22R engine that was a joint merger between Cummins and TRD. I love the way the rust only attacks the rear fenders on these trucks! Oh and the steering mod, Auntie Em it’s a twister. Great work!

@@turksandjerps For sure man! If anyone can make the TF3 more palatable to us disappointed RC4WD fans, it’s you. I haven’t dove into it fully, but I did remove the fan and “pulley piece” off of the front of 22R and it looks like one could fit a servo there in a sideways position. Hell, knowing how well RC4WD knows how to milk every penny from their customers (me) it looks like they set it up to sell an adapter piece to do just that. What better way to sell a lot of steering “upgrades” then to design it so poorly that every TF3 owner would pay $29.99 to have a classic CMS set up. Other prediction, releasing it with the Mojave II body is another money grab. Bet around the time the TF3 is released as a kit, they release a new body. Like a 1/10th scale Black Hawk body. Which is actually a perfect profitable plan. Release a new body in a 1/18th scale, getting those exciting to see a new hardbody to buy one. Then release it as a 1/10th scale.
