I love RC! On my channel you will find running videos, custom creations and a build video once in a while. I primarily drive RC cars and boats. Most of the time I am just in my yard and at local parks. Enjoy!

Testing several new M2C prototypes with my Fireteam, Outcast 4s & Talion Hybrid. I also give a little channel update while I am driving.
M2C Jackhammr first drive!
Просмотров 3146 месяцев назад
I converted my Sledge to a Jackhammr, and I wanted to do it differently from everyone else. I was able to keep the stock body with a few tweaks to the kit. Still have some tuning to do, but she is one tough truck!
Arrma Kraton 4s Hybrid first drive!
Просмотров 5017 месяцев назад
I refreshed my hybrid with Mojave arms, some modified Fireteam towers, and 2.8 Jetko tires! Insteon buying a new K4S that I didn’t have room for, I just made one. Also in this video; My son broke the Syncro 4S on a bad nose dart. I experimented with different ramp heights. Higher gives you an automatic backflip with minimal distance. 2 from the bottom gives you good distance but not quite a bac...
KCRC ramp sends with the Talion XL

Got the Talion XL out on the new KCRC ramp. Biggest sends ever for me! only issue I am seeing is that it sinks down into the grass. If I put it on the concrete it slides around. might need some sand bags.

First drive with the Syncro4. Very impressive buggy! Especially for the price point. Need to gear up and change the radio.

Definitely looks like it was worth the wait! Great times with your son, next generation RC gear head 🫡 My daughter loves them as well, she really likes the bashing while I have always loved speedruns! Have a blessed holiday!! 🎄
Thanks for checking out the video! Awesome your daughter drives RC's with you 🤩
Nice run, such a good buggy!
Thanks for stopping by Razor! I think this is my favorite driveway car right now 🤩
WOW what a ripper Aaron. I was shocked when you say it was 2s. I love the buggies but i think the mojave would be cool as well.
It's a rocket man! This is my favorite mini at the moment, and I have quite a few 👍 Been looking at the upgrade cost for the Mojave and it may be better to just get a new BLX. Either way I will have a brushless Mojave Grom soon 👍
@ ah damn, im gonna get one lol
The Mojave Grom BLX drives straight as an arrow fully pinned with 3s, it's amazing as well. I also use an IC2 to Deans adapter to run 3000mah batteries.
Nice! Glad to hear it 👍 I want to convert one of mine. Looking at the cost though it might be better to just buy a blx version, lol
Put the Granite Grom tires on it, 100% better. I also put the Granite Grom Bumpers on all 4 of mine
Glad you finally got it what an adventure. They are great fun on 3s thats why I put mine on the dumbo radio to have a little gyro I passed on this because I already created it lol I took it to Wales drifted around where the park where my friend Chris Withac runs it was cool to have something to travel with and run over seas
Yeah man it was a ridiculous odyssey to get this 🤣 Glad I finally got my hands on it. I think I need to convert one of my Mojave Grom's to brushless now!
@GreatLakesRC definitely add a gyro to that one lol. The motor I used fit perfectly and is the same shaft size to use the same pinion
That thing looks like a lot of fun and she definitely rips!
You need one for your parking lot!
It really is the perfect RTR traveler 👌
How is it holding up ?
It held up great! I sold the truck though. I got tired of breaking bulkheads.
Cool ride... I wouldn't mind having one
Nice video,i think the Losi dbxl e2 it is not enough strong for high jumps with those stock parts.. For this reason many people changes some basic aluminium and put vitavon..
Meshing sucks, motor has probs overheating, reverse sucks. I had it out of the box with a broke receiver.. bit when you finally got it right its nice! But this is alooot of work and headache. Thanks fot the vid
Do you know of any great places to place with this care? I just got it, and MAN....... Are the there any groups or clubs around that you know? I am in Rivertown mall area.
Check out West Michigan RC club. It's in Muskegon. Other option is a local park
I just stumbled across this. Are you in GR area?
Yes, I live near GR 👍
Does this motor mount system allow you to run 18/50 gearing on a stock 8S motor or does the slide prevent it from going down that much
It's been too long since this was developed. Please check out the M2C website 👍
That’s awesome they came out with that chassis brace. I’ve been making these for a few years to keep the rear end from bending. Use the aluminum front knuckles to stop the balls from popping out. I make a lot of parts I probably should talk to Avery about. Now I’m seeing they’re making them. Great review! 🤘👊🏆
I want one
Is that with the stock motor?
I think so. This is a pretty old video so my memory is fuzzy!
......
Which one do you think is better for off road? Fireteam or Big Rock No big jumps
Right now I am liking the Fireteam better. The EXB diffs in the Big Rock do weird things 🤣
Nice 👍🏾 I can see the fun your having with these rc cars
Heck yeah! Thanks for checking out the video 👍
Awesome 4th of July Brother Aaron!!! Great look at the new 4 and 6s bits from M2C 👌. The tower brace did awesome on my Mojave 4s. Looking forward to trying one on the O4s. The K6s EXB skid brace looks killer 😱. Your hybrid looks awesome with the V1 Talion body. Great bash and nuce to see little man ripping the Fire team 😍🚀🚀🍻
Thanks Rich! Definitely a fun backyard bash with my son 🤩
Great little truck! got em for my grandkids!!
They will love them! 😀
Same here I preordered it then they show up locally forst I was about to get it but fedslow said it would come on a Saturday they decided to wait until Wednesday. As a person that did brushless to see what it could do I agree its great out of the box this setup is not for speed its actually good to go out of the box.
Thanks for checking out the video 👍 You have some great content on this truck. I watched all the videos 😀
@GreatLakesRC thank you very much I am just waiting on a part to come in and I will have more it was supposed to be here today but yup fedslow changed it again.
You I have never been all that interested in the smaller stuff. BuT Arrma nailed the color scheme so well with the blue, yellow, and white. I may have to pick one of these up. Great job with the video Aaron.
Give it a try Jason! Would be good content 👍
Hey Aaron !! Hope all's well buddy. They are hilarious & look like a load of fun ....just been awful weather over here & just got new Cavoodle puppy so been a bit otherwise occupied. I am looking forward to getting some fast cars out again soon.....been a while ! Great to see you still expanding the fleet 😁👌
Great to see you in the comments Paul! Yes, collection is still expanding 🤣 Even doing some flying. Hope you can get out and drive soon 👍
Man I pre ordered mine but yep of course MASSIVELY delayed in Australia with added delays😭 I'm glad your enjoying yours mate👍
That's a huge bummer yours got delayed. I know you love these little Grom's as well 👍
_J Concepts just released the "Choppers" and "Magma's" for this truck and the Kratons! I have a set of each for my BR6 and they not only look amazing, but perform amazing! Highly Recommended you check them out!_
I just noticed a few days ago, my stretched kraton shock tower was bent
Happens man! Upgrade/replace and send it 🚀
@@GreatLakesRC definitely. That was a first for me with the exb shock towers
Great video! Just subscribed👍
Thank you! 😀
What ramps are you using? Do you have a link by chance?
Those are old ramps not made anymore. Check out freshpark or KCRC
I love how organized and clean your hobby room is man.
Thank you!
I'm pretty sure the easy wheelie on Outcast models is a design feature, not a problem to fix. It's called a stunt truck ya know. Get the Kraton with a longer wheelbase if you wanna tame the wheelie.
I recently got an aeroscout as well. It's my 3rd plane. If you are struggling with that, I don't suggest one of those micro planes. I grabbed a Super Cub S2 last summer, thinking smaller would be easier. Not the case at all. I highly recommend just finding a bigger space to practice. Most local hobby shops have the RF simulator set up for customers to use, maybe give it 10 min of your time. It truly is helpful.
Thanks for the advice! Of course I already bought a micro plane. It is actually very easy to fly with the gyro. Without, it's impossible 🤣 Space is a premium where I live. Might break down and buy the simulator during winter
We want to see you fly watching a beer cooler turn into a coaster is fun lol. The sport cub s and probably the mini aero scout will be good yard and park fliers just not a lot of wind. I have the turbo timber evolution that flies great you need a bit more space than a back yard but it flies good you can drop the flaps and fly at a snails pace lol. The omp t720 is good it pops apart if you crash very durable I think you saw my last video on it it hit the ground a few times and still flew loo. I met M2c at Arrmageddon and I still dont get parts I am mad 😡😡 just kidding he told me to add the droop screws to my 8s stuff to help with the axles he said buy his or get some screws either way so that was cool his screws are a bit expensive especially for me its times 2 for the Kraton and Outcast.
Thanks for the flying advice! Yes, I watched the OMP video 👍 I actually have 3 more in my watch later. You pump out the content! M2C is an awesome company. My point of saying that there is a large test team is that everything gets tested before it goes into production. They don't send me every part, I don't bash hard enough 🤣
Great times! Making family memories. 😁
For sure! Thanks for checking out the video 👍
Fun bash and fun times with the fam!!! Great way to spend any day!!
Absolutely! Thanks for checking out the video 😀
just posted my install !st test of the new exb brace
I saw that! It's a really nice brace 👍
@@GreatLakesRC agreed
Sweet testing man, that hybrid really soars for a 4s rig🤘 A tip that may help you with flying planes, maybe start with a flying wing style plane or a "indoor" super light stunt plane rather than a top wing trainer especially if it has no ailerons😬 The light weight flying wings and the stunt planes can fly slow but will teach you better all round skills for flying most styles of plane, jet and 3d planes. I don't need a rudder ever because of how well they built my skills, I still have a hard time flying Cessna style planes but I can fly any jet, glider or pylon racer at well above 100mph through corners.
Nice! I ended up buying a cheap high wing 3 channel plane from Amazon. It's very small 20" wide. It doesn't have aelerons but I was able to get it in the air easily and start getting the hang of flying it. Definitely crashed, but it was completely fine 🤣 The aeroscout has everything, but its too big and intimidating for me at the moment.
@GreatLakesRC the bigger the plane the easier to fly👌 obviously you need the room to do so though yes.
True! I just don't have a large enough yard 🤣
@GreatLakesRC one reason I suggest a super light 3d stunt plane, mine is about 1.5m wingspan but because it's so light weight it can stay in the air at like 20kph and turn 180° in about a 3m circle. I know it sounds strange me saying don't start with a trainer but I think planes without ailerons really just feel like bricks in the sky🤷 Probably just me😅
Sick I just got one today
You still running this Aaron?
Yep! It's still in the collection
Great job. The RockRey really does well off the ramp and effortlessly jamming over the big bolder in your front yard. ⚡
good job, this video made me sub. keep em coming, from Alberta Canada❤
Awesome, thank you!
I managed to reduce the tendency to body roll by putting double rear wheels on it. The Losi Hammer Rey even looks a bit more extreme and is actually still cool to see and still to the scale. I have a video of my first test drive on my RUclips channel. Greetings Jos 👋🍀
Awesome stuff! Which of the M2C Diff out drives you got? The 6mm EXB? Also, how much did you adjust the droop? Thanks
I am using the M2C EXB out drives. The Big Rock comes with EXB diffs, they just didn't advertise it. I am assuming that this will be their standard on all 6s trucks from now on. I always adjust my droop screws so that my shocks don't overextended 👍
Awesome first run with the Jackhammr Aaron. Been waiting on this for a while 😂. I love the route you took on this build. stock body looks great 👍. I'm impressed with the system you have despite the elevated temp which was expected. You pulled some great launches off the ramp. That sideways lander was gnarly but took it well. M2C tuff!! Bigger more torque power should wake it up even more. Awesome successful first run brother.
Thanks Chris! This was a long time coming for sure 👍 Had to get the video out there for this special RC 🤩 Thanks for watching as always!
Very nice build Aaron, love the stock body on there. I guess driving on your plush lawn is an attribute for heat issues? Nice lawn dude lol
🤣 Thanks man! I need to switch up the motor. A little bit too high of a KV. Appreciate you checking out the video 😀
You need motor fans bro
So does these tires make it faster?
These tires help with stability. They don't balloon at high speed
@@GreatLakesRC so fast or not fast
