Very nice. I enjoyed mine also.
Got a few ridgerocks myself. Great crawlers all around. Duratrax deep woods tires would significantly increase performance in this terrain, the tires are absolute giants, coming in at almost 6 inches tall and a nice soft grippy compound. (But not competition legal) ✊

What are the recommended parts to upgrade to better quality parts? How durable is the lion hexfly battery and charger?

The Everest gen 7 now has metal internal trans gears with stainless driveshafts (no worries of rust) with Metal diff lockers. I don't run the Hexfly packs.
I got one of these yesterday I just need to see a video I don't know how you got yours but mine got front and rear wheel steering and you can change modes they are the same RC's to
