73? You’re still young enough to fully enjoy it. This can be one of the most challenging and relaxing hobbies you can get into. With the smaller scx24’s you can build them to no end and crawl on the dining room table and have a blast. Thank you for being a part of the channel buddy.

Hey, I'm a recently disabled 63 year old and got into it about a year ago. I've now got 7 '24s, I've built a small crawler course in my small yard, I can use em in the house, they are the most addicting fun that you will have. I'm now getting into the 1/10, I got a gatekeeper, and swap between its body and an ecto body. I had just as much fun modifying them as I do driving em. Keeps the brain sharper, gets you outside, meet new people with the same interests. What more could you ask for from a "toy"

Really impressive truck there..

Excellent...I will be purchasing the Ecto truck very shortly...thanx

This little rig has really impressed me a lot!

Can't wait to get my parts in! Wish I had the same coarse as yours in my back yard!!

Really nice to see these stage by stage upgrades, you've convinced me to build a competition worthy Ecto. Thanks

That truck is working great now!

I have been going absolutely nuts on this Ecto series of yours Joe!! Just look how little you have done to it (so far 😁) to get it to perform really well. I'm anxious to see it eventually up against SV2. But, SV1 first. Great videos!!!!!!! 👍

Can't wait to add some stuff to my ecto black just picked up 3 days ago

Awesome video, and great data on the upgrades. Now I know what to get.

Bro you just took me on a roller coaster of emotions this morning haha, watched the Ecto videos from first drive to first upgrades to this video and I’m so stoked you nailed crack of doom, I don’t know if I could’ve slept tonite without seeing that hahah great vids man!!

This truck is badass! You should do stealthx metal gears out of the kit truck, im thinking maybe a Ecto build on an lcg chassis. Brent at brazin-scale-rc could set you up with a really nice colored carbon ATL pro

Great video Joe. This whole Ecto series has been great to watch. Awesome to seem the progression with the upgrades. I have a Sendero myself that I've thrown a lot of upgrades on. It's a great truck. A couple questions, first do the Samix 10.2 Brass C-hubs bolt on easily? (Thinking of getting some myself now) And could you of done crack of doom with the brushed system? Thanks and keep up the good work.

You might want to print out something light to cover the holes in the body.

Awesome thanks so much

This is a great video and really shows what the Ecto can do with some tweaking! I'd probably buy one tomorrow if it had portal axles.....i like me some ground clearance! Have you run it against say the Vanquish Pheonix?

Ooh Exo ec-toe 2.0 😂🤣👊🏽

Awesome!!!! Hey do you have a part number for that quiet esc. ??

Did you put googly eyes on the front? I like your style.

Want one of these pro crawlers so bad just don't really have a serious area to run them trX4 it's best of both worlds

You could see with just a tire change that rig would be a beast

Just trimming stock tires made a huge difference and also hair ties on the shocks up front helped lower front to keep it planted better...it's a beast🔥

@joe ? You have made a purdy good rig out of that 👍 I mean wow.! Dude ? When I saw you get that ? I honestly thought it was a mistake 💁‍♂️ lol. I don’t think I’ve been this wrong about a rig before. Lol But hey? With all of that front bias … you should try a FULL DRUPE with it & see what that does. You can probably squeezes lil more out of it . I think you could even go to bent links in place of the trac arms. Idk. Cuz I’m just assuming . But I think that would make a really cool full drupe rig (in the back only I mean) That Home’s system is freaking awesome in that truck. That makes it ! And it seems it could even stand going up another tooth or two on the pinion.

Yes. I need this and the new knightrunner.

The Samix SCX 10.2 Brass C-Hubs is not a perfect fit. The Panhard Bar Mount is different and changes the geometry of the truck. Once installed the car geometry moved far to the left. The other recommended parts fit perfect.

I have really been liking my gatekeeper but I think I might throw on the Ecto body to get it to perform even better. I weighed the the cage and panels, it weighed 442 grams. I would run my body without the roll cage. Any idea how much the Ecto body weighs? Was curious how much weight I would save. Awesome video like usual!!!

@ExocagedRC

2 жыл бұрын

I haven’t weighed the body alone but it’s gotta be close to the creep. I’d have to look back on other videos showing Superlite to find that weight.

Ok, ya that makes sense. I have a gen 8 with a creep body that is my class 2 rig, I will bring the creep body to my shop and weight it on the paint scale there. Or it will give me an excuse to watch the SV1 videos for the 3rd or 4th time haha. Love the content! Only channel I try to watch ever video released. Best part is I wake up to a new video every day!

Have you weighed the Ecto vs Creep body to see if weight distribution is improved or negligible.

Love the video! Loving my ecto ! Have you found any aftermarket trailing arms and or drive shafts for this?

Probably not. 4-linking can give better articulation. Better as in steering while flexed out and accuracy

Do you have a link to some brass wheel hexes for this?

Have you had any trouble with the Samix hubs twisting? Mine will not stay where they started. It’s been pretty aggravating!
