Yikong Rockslide First Upgrades – Fusion 8ight, Wheels, Tires & More!

Time to start upgrading the Yikong Rockslide! In this video, I swap out the Hobbywing Fusion RTR system for a full Hobbywing Fusion 8eight, install 7.13" JConcepts Tusks mounted on Pro-Line Steelie wheels, and replace the selectable underdrive servo for better reliability and control — especially since the stock unit can’t handle the 8.4V BEC power from the new setup. Big thanks to ‪@Team_ReVolt‬ for the 3D-printed inserts!
