Lowers the COG (center of gravity) which makes the trucks wAy less tippy. Most important mod if you ask me!

Are the bodies interchangeable on the Mini Z chassis?

Do you prefer it over the scx24? Which one is more fun out of the box?

Just did most of these upgrades. Thanx for your videos. I also did the carbon fiber frame and the steel links from "Extra Speed". Everything seemed to go well, but after it was all put back together it leans to the left (as looking at the front). What would cause this? The links?

@ProNoobRC

3 жыл бұрын

Did you limit shocks with tubing like we did? If not just make sure all your springs are even and you can stretch ones a bit on low side and put back on. The trucks are a little bit heavier on the left-hand side as how everything is laid out on the chassis

Awesome video! Question - why carbon fiber chasis? isn't that going to make it lighter?

@ProNoobRC

Yes helps lower centre of gravity a pinch. But out of the box these little crawlers are amazing

I love my mini-z jeep but I already lost one of the side view mirrors... not sure if you can get just replacement mirrors? I did the weighted wheels and metal universal joints and she works pretty good. I’m looking at a few of the brass items. You mentioned that the extra speed brass knuckles weigh more than the kyosho ones do you know what they weigh vs the kyosho ones? Anyway enough rambling thanks for all the bad as$ content you guys do!

Sorry I was trying to dig up where we found the weight listed again but I do remember 2 gram differential between them for half the price. Man this thing is giving our scx24s a solid run for their money! Lol. Love it!

No sir I’d go with an Axial Scx24 first. Stronger and better. This truck is more like a functional model that will crawl but body is it Achilles’ heel. Heavy. But you cannot go wrong with an Axial Scx24 we have about 10 and lots of videos in them.

I live in Japan, my employees have this and the 4runner. I was looking at the scx24. Which would you recommend?

@ProNoobRC

3 жыл бұрын

Best way to explain them. The scx24 is better for comp style crawling where you’re not worried about damaging it. The kyosho is scale trail truck. Both are very capable machines. If running with friends from work get the kyosho you will love it.
