Lone-wolf Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 Interesting update on the old model, often considered getting a Kanyon but its not without its faults, body shell is very weak and mounting points needs beefing up, also its huge being more like 1/8th, and no choice of other body shells 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sweeney. Posted June 26, 2022 Share Posted June 26, 2022 (edited) I quite fancy one of these, having bought a standard Kanyon and the DF-4J '10 Year Edition' in 2020, same chassis at the Kanyon Mountain Rescue, Kanyon + 2 speed gearbox + winch. Will still need that alloy angle brace mod doing so the mounts dont collapse on the first outing. Under no illusions here, lipstick on a pig is still a pig with lipstick on it.

Sweeney. Posted June 26, 2022 Share Posted June 26, 2022 They do the work I need them todo fast trail running on the flat mainly, my Kanyon is running an Absima A10 brushless, outlaw open diffs in both, RC4WD copy twin motor winch for nose weight, alloy chassis rails mod on both, Steel pinions in both, DF-4J runs a 1080 and a Surpass 5 slot 550 12 turn, both are a blast just on 2S, sitting lowish on soft springs and they look box stock other than that but go really well and cruise at walking pace very nicely. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
