This video 100% just sold me on a Fordyce. Not big on rtr stuff but this looks super fun with just a few basic mods.

I’m guilty of the same thing I recently bought a scx10 2 trail honcho and I’ve had two previously so I unboxed it and upgraded all the electronics wheels tires put metal links under it and installed vanquish gears in the trans and even swapped the ring and pinion to the two peice set instead of the centred one piece ring gear and I installed u joint axles instead of the stock dog bones all before driving it once you build a handful of rcs you know the nessicary parts and upgrades and sometimes expeshally for you driving away to crawl you just don’t want breakdowns when you go out that said the phoenix is definitely though outta the box I oan 3 vanquish pheniox

Bought one for proline by the fire for night crawls. I put a raw 500 in before the first run. I changed the wheels and tires and used the lowest shock ends. That is it. This truck PERFORMS. Friends comment all the time about how well it does. Brushed motor, stock radio, no weights. Crazy.... This will be my son's truck. He's 10. He'll love it.

That was a very honest and excellent review Logan! Appreciate your candid discussion and really liked the approach you took to showcase the strengths and weaknesses of the Fordyce truck. I'm holding out for the Limited Edition version of this truck once Vanquish release it like they did with the Falken edition Phoenix. Fingers crossed for that!

Their tires are great performers I agree the first thing I do before even going out for the first time is add metal beadlocks. And most of the time new tires. My WDW hat is pretty worn I’m going to have to check out the hats again.

My rtr is great, especially with machined gears.. I love the challenge of class 1 tires in the predator compound really climb better than expected, plus it looks like a 90's rock crawler..

Logan, by far the the best review video on the Vanquish Products Fordice RTR. You hit on every point, both positive and negative. Along with awesome trail footage. Is it possible to get a pin drop for that location for the next time I am in that area. When I was at Sand Hollow State Park on my way home from PBF, the rocks looked unaccessible for my Santa fe to drive to. That area looks accessible. Thanks again for the great content. Sorry I didn't get a chance to meet you at PBF. At the time I saw you, I didn't realize it was you under the sunglasses and hat. Great disguise. 😅.

Will a direct wire drain your battery faster or same if say equivalent servos. And Holmes hobbies sells a harness where it plugs right into the balance connector. Easy peasy! I just did a 777;on my Scx10iii gladiator

So I got hooked on crawlers with the mini’s. I’m getting ready to purchase my first 1/10. I and thinking I will do the rtr straight axel Phoenix or should I just do a Fordyce? I may eventually do a hardbody and I want to make it a good crawler on a budget. Is the twin transmission worth going for the pheonix?

I really like my Vanquish rigs, but you are dead on about the shocks. I own three sets and they all leak. I've rebuilt two sets with new seals only to have them leak pretty much from the get-go. Built many other brands, no where near the issues. For the cost, not impressed. Vanquish, if you're listening. Get us some upgraded/ redesigned seals for our expensive shocks... please!
