Building a Vanquish Phoenix Portal Kit, These ARE as Nice as they say!

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Got this Vanquish Phoenix Portal kit on trade, got to say these are very beefy trucks! Pretty impressed with the quality. Still trying to figure out what direction to finish this out to.

    I run the HobbyWing FusionPro 2300's in all of my crawlers and trail trucks. They are worth every penny. I also use Reef's servos in everything. They're bulletproof and powerful.

    They are a great crawler if you only have one,you got the right one definitely hook up both servos for dig and over drive you won't be sorry.give the stock body one of your patina paint jobs it will look awesome,leave the interior out for a lower center of gravity

    The Fusion is a pretty sweet system. The program card works the same as the 1080 with a couple different settings. I have one in a crawler, one in a Tamyia semi and one in a converted Bruder Mack snowplow.

    I’ve got both a straight axle and portal phoenix. I have had trouble with dirt getting into the transmission around the shift levers on both. I highly recommend cutting the shift levers off just after the set screws and putting block-off plates over them. The Proline 1985 Toyota extended cab is the perfect size to bolt to the Phoenix plastic cage and act as a direct replacement for the big FJ cab.

    You really should set up the dig its alot of fun and it chages everyhing when crawling also just my opinion i deff would consider a bigger steering servo ,

    4:50 I think you missed a bearing in the pinion gear here. Maybe not but worth noting it’s commonly missed and cause problems if so. If you get back in it for the hardened gears maybe a good time to do this too and prevent gear breakage down the road.

    I missed a lot of things building this. I did go back once I realized it. Had the wrong sized bearings in the front portals, 2 or the trans gears are the same size but one is deeper than the other. I have tested in since this video and it is working perfectly. There were a few steps in the instructions I’d have done differently lol

    If you want it to really perform, lock out the od in 30%. I know your way more scale, so don't fight the process, just use the performance the give you. 😉

    The OD was miscalculated by VP, its about 46 percent. Unusable, stick to the stock 6 percent.

    After watching the video, it has made me think I wouldn't mind one for hardcore crawling. But if you wanted to run a hard body on it, want about the 85 SR5 Hilux with a bobbed tray, just a thought?
