FMS (Big) Toyota FJ40

Been working tediously on my FJ. Fixing all its faults, adding engine sound and extra lights, so far!! Thinking about adding a 80amp ESC, will that calm it’s herky jerkiness????

General RC Information

Been working a lot on my FJ. It seems when I bought it. It was RTR still waiting to find out if it’s been set in Lipo mode sent a email to FMS a few days ago. Haven’t heard back yet.Transmission output shaft cross pin had broken off on one side, then the other, causing the FJ to stop moving, called FMS, they refused to warranty anything relating to the FJ because I bought it from a Third Party Seller, Amazon!! I removed the output shaft and sourced another pin from one of my parts bins and installed the new pin, greased and installed.been 2 weeks without problems 🤞I added lights & changed those very dim, yellow headlights with very strong clear
leds. Added engine sound to CH.
3. Added Hobby Park wheels and tires that look like the Originals and they wobble just like the originals!!
