This is definitely one of the coolest 6x6’s on KZread

Just found your video to this Atlas. Awesome car and mods that you have done there. Guess I will take something of that and do it to mine, too. Thanks for the video, man!

The look of this 6x6 is really great, I really like the 3D air intake on the hood, and it is true that it gives it a more aggressive look. The idea of ​​the magnet at the front to avoid removing the bumper is a great idea 👌 I'm not going to mark everything you did on this rc but frankly you had to spend a lot of time on it, especially to solve all the problems such as the axles and drive shafts. I think your explanations are really complete and that it will help people who want to improve this fms 6x6. Bravo for the great job 👍

Love this build. You answered so many questions I had about trying to do this myself and I am now very confident that I can make it happen because of your work and this video. Thank you very much, man.

You could do a custom rear sway bar type thing for the real axel. But this thing is very well done. Its awesome looking.

crickets...:) too funny. This vid pretty much outlines what I plan (plus ideas I'm copying). Really appreciate the options & work arounds you came up with. Should be a fun build, if it comes out half as nice as yours I'll be stoked.

This 6x6 is insane. Bad ass build man💯

Great video bro. Love this build!

Wow! Very nice work.

Yo thank you so much for this video. Gonna steal your ideas and build one for myself.

I use slices (1-3mm thick) of silicone fuel line (5.5mm OD) for nitro RC cars to place on both sides of each suspension ball joint to eliminate slop. That would help your rear end out a lot. 👍🏻

I like it. I’ve had my Atlas for a month now. I didn’t realize, there’s no part support. No where near what the scx24 has. So I came across your video, and got some pointers. I did the Emax on scx24 axles with scramblers on FMS everything. Thanks for sharing your rig info. It’s bad! I like!

Thank you! Yes I have a yellow rgt. I have videos of it on here. You know fms will release a 6x6 jeep soon. I’m hoping they use metal gears in that one. I have to look up this at6. I’m not familiar with cross rc.

Try printing up a panhard bar for the last diff. You can look it up. It shouldn't require much

So great job you did.I m thinking to buy this truck or fcx24 , actually i love this one 6.6 atlas After all this experience you have with this truck what do you think is best to do ?

When can I buy one just like it on Amazon ? I'll take 5 please. You killed it on that build. I cant even look at my stock one now.

Thought about a panhard? Great build.

What light controller did you use for the light bar I have the same light bar the light bar works off direct power from the battery but the light controller doesn’t work any recommendations

How much total cost to you figure for the chassis upgrades?

What part is that gold on the mid axel?

I have quite a few Dumbo receivers in micros and full size rcs. No issues. Some even have multiple servos and winches. Usually a glitching servo means it needs more power. It’s nothing to do with the receiver. You might need a glitch buster or an external bec.

Are you going to put the light bars up for sale on ebay?

I got the hobby wing 1060 esc, would you recommend using the dumbo rc with the emax digital servo?

@DanPRC

Жыл бұрын

Dumbo have great radios and they have a good selection of receivers. They have full size to micro and some with built in light functions. And the emax is a good servo but the Reefs99 and MoFo Black Label are better but cost a little more. And you’ll have to open the holes on the Mofo to use m2 screws.

I have scx24 axles with metal Injora driveshafts but you can use these driveshafts with the stock axles. You’ll just have to get some that’ll fit and you might have to cut the rear shaft down to fit.

And the stock axles has pretty cheap plastic gears in them. That might be your problem. If so you can even do the scx24 axle swap like I did or get the Furitek monster truck metal gears. Guys are saying they’re the same size as tbe stock plastic axle gears. But not cheap.

im curious if the scx axle set up would fit on the fms fj cruiser. great build btw!
