Wait, hold up, FMS Model just gave us a new release that’s not a scale details model. Meet the new FCX24 Lemur found here: bit.ly/3UWpY8t This trail buggy style of rig is based on the FCX24 but it’s not just a body swap. There are a number of things that are different which Greg will go over in the video. After you’re up to speed on what the Lemur has to offer, you’ll see it in action. Is it a true performer or will this newest release that’s not what we’re used to seeing from FMS need some work? Technical Update: The driveline is a mix of bearings and bushings.

    It is interesting that FMS chose to release the Lemur on the 1:24 scale chassis rather than utilising the FCX18. The slightly bigger scale chassis would have produced a better product for not that much more cost I feel. I have a Partner Racing QX-4 rock buggy and the 1:18 scale gives it a noticeable performance advantage over 1:24 scale products whilst retaining the handy compact size/weight benefits.

    My gosh that was a beautiful shot of you sitting with the lake behind you, absolutely awesome! oh and the truck is cool too!
  • As is sits stock I think a kid would have a lot of fun with it but for us crawler enthusiasts i think what you did would be about it to have nice time with it.A set of smaller tires and heavier wheels and just cut the springs down to lower it should do the job.
  • @joegrady2975
    I think longer links in the front to extend the wheelbase
  • @0UTCAST247
    Some brass wheels LGRP Black Labels and a 12mm TREAL streach, that thing would be great with just those few mods . I put brass INJORA brass wheels and LGRP BL on my Fcx24 Power Wagon and it made a big difference in performance.
  • @SteadfastRC
    Great reviews always Greg, I agree with all your points on this vehicle. I really don't understand that Tire Choice that they went with.
  • @Youboyg
    Very beautiful rig❤️🔥💪🏼
  • @phildavis4878
    Not a bad-looking Trust I like that one a lot that's the best one I would get so have a lot of fun bullet my friend
  • @rc-dom-uk
    nice review mate. just needs something extra to look right. like u say longer wheelbase and scale wheels/ tyres?🤔
  • @ba_dupri78
    I had the same thought about the links off the LC80 I think that could be a budget way to get some performance and wait for more parts to come out...man I'm stuck between this, lC80, or finally giving into a trx4m build😂
  • @michaelavery4427
    Some weight up front would definitely help. First thing I would do is swap battery and reciever placement of possible
  • @TylerSL92
    looks a little tall/top heavy with those stock tires. Can't tell if the tires are too big or the body is too small looks a little out of scale for some reason lol
  • @TheNeck-rc46
    Still wish fms would do something with their chasie.shock locations, more room for upgrades.yea,20,25 sounds about right.
  • @mikecoe3254
    how do you like this compared to the LC80? the Lemur looks awesome. any alternatives I should consider or is this the one?
  • If the intent is to make it into just a crawler, yes, will need some upgrades. But, isn't it a rock bouncer buggy? to go on trails, roots, dirt, some small rocks, etc. Is it water resistant or is it the same motor/esc as in the other fcx's because if it has some water resistance, would open up for some fun in creeks.
  • @rcgoodtimes6657
    Classic FMS loud transmission screech. Looks better with smaller wheels/tires but the cartoon decals gotta go. Way overpriced for what it is IMO.
  • @but531
    All the tyres are interchangeable between 1/24 and 1/18 models ? Because you change the tyres to the Blazer that's why i ask.
