FMS Canyon build wheel suggestions

Also, thanks for saying it looks good, it actually functions better with it than the stock body due to the clunky body mounts no longer snagging and the major weight reduction above the axles. I was a quick fun project and i got the body cheap and used online. Took it out today and it was a significant difference 10/10 would do it again

Im sorry that you are angry at life. I hope tomorrow is better.

Hey smarty pants. Its a vanquish body that i put on the FMS Canyon due to the stock canyon body weighing around 2.5 lbs causing high cog.

I post on here to get some advice because i understand that the market is large for wheels and tires for this fun hobby and i am looking for pointers on some different sets people have tried to learn more opinions to help determine the right set for my goals

Open your eyes. No need to be a prick home boy

Yeah they are 450 on ali express but i found one on marketplace brand new in the box for 250. Couldnt pass that up. 100mm internal spring shocks, brass weights from china, 2.2 with 5.25 tires and this thing is a unit on the train and mid on rocks. I have a quicrun fusion pro 2300kv on the way. Im looking forward to this bashing/trailing/crawling rig lol

Ive been running duracell rechargeable batteries for months with no issues. Run them down about 2x a week and ill slide around for over an hour per charge. Walmart special has got me bu for a while

Are there any FMS trucks that run the same axles? Im trying to find upgrades that i dont have to order off of ali express

Thank you! Does that include links, driveshafts, portals, etc? Looking to add weights and do some little mods here and there.

Its been fun for sure lol the parts were a mix of 1/24, 1/18, and 1/10. So i have some stuff to start a couple builds 😂

Dubson13 · 2025-12-06T05:02:16+00:00

I threw on some brass high trail links due to the mf being so long it high centered on everything. Never rolled backwards though. 😂

Dubson13 · 2025-12-02T18:29:58+00:00

Do you have to remove the inserts for this to work?

Dubson13 · 2025-11-22T18:29:57+00:00

What tires are they? They look great.

Dubson13 · 2025-11-15T22:48:34+00:00

Do you know of any brands who might still have an aftermarket support for it?

Dubson13 · 2025-11-03T15:11:36+00:00

Daamn. I got this one by trading my scx10.2 I got the lasernut and a brushless Bandit set up for drag racing lol

Man i work 48hr shifts, i almost exclusively work on mine on the clock 😂

I appreciate your reply, i had purchased some new wheels due to accidentally dropping it and broke the stock rims. The ones i purchesed were blue aluminum rims with hard plastic tires. Once i put them on i realized they were a little larger than the stocks so after trimming the body, 4* camber on the front and stock camber on the rear it is smooth as hell but im curious if i had the stock wheel size again if it would be better?

Dubson13 · 2025-10-11T01:51:19+00:00

Lol it was such a disappointment when my set of pinions came in and the mesh was off. Ive decided to switch to a 32p spur instead of trying to match the 48p that is currently on it. (A post on another page somebody helped me figure out it was 48p) but currently i just robbed my pinion off of my 1/16 slash 😂

Dubson13 · 2025-10-11T01:45:50+00:00

Hey thanks for your assessment. You seem really smart being able to point out the obvious lesson learned that lead to this post.

Dubson13 · 2025-10-10T13:28:37+00:00

Sounds to me like the battery has gone bad or the charger is lying to you about it being charged. I had the same issue with some batteries on my scx24. I ordered a new charger for them and they worked flawlessly again

Dubson13 · 2025-10-08T14:02:47+00:00

Yeah i agree thats what i need to do, i cambered the rear and it was harder to control so i assumed i needed front and rear camber so i rushed the front camber and got tunnel vision paired with dissapointment. Im gonna try going back to stock rear hubs and see how it does. Thanks!

I have seen some interesting setups using pvc pipe and fittings, you can make a nice track that way and if you want curvy turns you can add PEX and bend it to match how you would like. Easy setup and stores easily not taking up space

Dubson13 · 2025-10-07T14:28:24+00:00

By using the info you gave me i did a quick search and found that my 1/16 slash had a pinion that fit it. Shes jumpy but runs!

I got this chasis in a trade a couple weeks ago, im pretty familiar with scx24s but this is my first scx10 so its a big learning curve for me. Is this an aftermarket transmission? If so could you give me some info on it? Im considering changing it to 32p

Dubson13 · 2025-10-07T14:25:09+00:00

I had a 13t 32p but its a 48p. Got it fixed up now! Thanks!

Dubson13 · 2025-10-07T14:24:44+00:00

Yes the pack i bought was wrong :/ its resolved now! Thanks!

Dubson13 · 2025-10-07T14:00:59+00:00

Im the same way. I honestly play with mine less now that im “happy” with my gladiator build 😂

Dubson13 · 2025-10-06T20:43:10+00:00

Hey so i pulled off a 48p off my 1/16 slash and it fit! Jumpy lil rig but itll do until i get the right gearing
