Yea it sucks, they changed the transmitter and receiver on the second batch of max smashers, I was hoping I orders early enough to still get one from the first batch. Unfortunately I also received the new transmitter and receiver, it’s disappointing because the new transmitter does not have any options to change ford/brake reverse settings and it doesn’t have any drag brake options either. A ton of people especially KZitemrs and crawler guys are kinda pissed they changed it, first it wasn’t really necessary they have plenty of the old transmitters and receivers and second it makes the reviews from KZitemrs look bad because now people are watching reviews on something there not really getting, it stirred up a whole mess and people are unhappy also the new receivers only have a spot for headlights nothing more where as the old receiver had room for a full light setup turn signals and everything. Plus losing forward/ reverse settings and drag brake was the worst upset of them all, especially when you consider the fact FMS specifically added locked straight axles in the accessory bag just in case you wanted to turn your smasher into a crawler, but by removing the old TX/RX it was like taking two steps back… You can still get the old TX/RX for your smasher but your going to have to fork out another 45$ plus shipping which is another 15$ so it’s really made a few people disgruntled…..

Yes it is very disappointing what FMS have done after the initial launch. The truck is still very good though... but they shouldn't have changed out the radio just like that. :(

Does it have dragbrake like the Power Wagon? I think the newer max smashers will get a worse remote and esc without it :/
@marklim7851

Mine has all the functions that the Power Wagon has. As shown in the video I can adjust the throttle profile, drag brake, etc. via micro-switches on the remote. I was surprised to see on another video that the remote the other user received was different... it was really odd.

My max smasher doesn’t have the 4 little switches!? How do I change the settings to crawler/reverse without those?

The second batch of max smashers come with the new transmitter and receiver and unfortunately you cannot change any options, there is no forward/brake/reverse option and you cannot alter drag brake at all… it’s made a lot of people angry…. and Unfortunately if you want those you have to buy a new transmitter and receiver which is about 45 bucks +15 for shipping it’s really made a bunch of people mad and it messed up all the KZitemrs reviews because now you’re not getting a product as advertised. A ton of people are mad about it because there was no reason to do the switch, they still had plenty of transmitters and receivers they just did it because they wanted a new transmitter and receiver with the new Max smasher. There are a lot of people mad at FMS right now, me included because I also received one of the new batch with the newTX/RX

You have a version 1 Smasher if you have dipswitches on the transmitter. If you have version 2 you have the newer updated transmitter without any dipswitches on the top.

Nice video, thanks for sharing, Amazon is actually selling locked metal difs for the max smasher now which is nice, I have heard from fcx24 owners that the plastic ones are ok but they eventually strip because of the D style shaft connection at the core of the locked dif gear, so i ordered myself a set, there made specifically for the fcx24 so I am excited to try them out…. I have a question I want to upgrade my shocks on my max smasher I was going to buy fcx24 compatible shocks, the ones I had in mind are 40mm which I think are the same size that come on the smasher stock…. I haven’t had a chance to measure them yet so I will probably do that soon. But I was hoping you might have a suggestion… would these 40mm do the job? Or should I try for a longer shock like 44mm or even longer? Do you have any suggestions I’d appreciate some input. Thanks and keep up the good videos…

I've wanted to look into some aftermarket shocks but I'll admit some other projects have kept me busy (stay tuned) so I haven't had the chance to explore which shocks might work well. If you've tried any, please share. :)

The length of the stock FCX24 shocks are 48mm.

Awesome video. How do you address putting shock oil in the tiny shocks.. I believe it will lessen the articulation in the axles. Am I wrong or is it beneficial to add oil to these shocks. Just curious sir
@marklim7851
11 ай бұрын
I think adding oil to the shocks can only be a good thing... the only downside is if they leak. To do so you'll use the O-rings provided in the box. I haven't done it yet though so I can't really say much more... though I've seen those who have done so. It won't lessen articulation but will reduce the 'bouncing' effect which can upset crawling... though at this scale it may not matter quite that much. :)
