@ …. Absolutely that’s what’s up!! My wife supports my hobbies and I’m there for her in other ways. With today’s social media standards it’s nice to see that we can still connect like old fashion humans lol.
That would be awesome! I think they would have to be present while I do it though so they can verify the run. And thanks about the g shock I love them!
Your girlfriends laugh was making me laugh. You can understand why she was giggling away just by putting yourself in her position watching that little truck driving along in front of you, on a main road and imagining what others coming the other way were thinking lol
Very cool. I live in a lake community and have a arrma Granite Boost about to convert to 4x4 and add power too. The road around our lake is 8 miles with a speed limit of 25MPH. I think you have inspired me to try to make the trip! That should make for an awesome video. Congratulations 🎉👍🏾
First time i ever rode the dragon tail was at night around 20 years ago on a CBR954rr and i was hooked. It's about a 7 hour drive for me and I've been back at least once a year since. It's a great bike road and looked like a great RC road. I'd suggest next time take an Infraction during warm weather. Bring your favorite sport bike along to. I've ridden everything from a 600 to a Busa and a bunch in between and not found a bad bike on it yet. Probably a bunch on good rc choices also. Maybe a fpv would be pretty cool also. I bet the bikes got a good laugh at you when they saw it.
I thought there was an even amount of ups and down the way I went. I also wanted to start at the beginning instead of the tail. Either way the inclines scared me, surely slowed the truck down a lot!
As much as I want to, it's dangerous! I'm pretty happy with this! Thank you! I've been to North Carolina 3 times and every time I told myself I wanted to do this. And now I did!
I did the same thing on bogus basin road with my yokomo yd2zx 1/10 with a 8300mah 2s and a 3300kv tekin motor and gen2 tekin esc. It drifted amazingly but couple times i hit some decent sized rocks and sent me into a spin out. Wish i would have filmed it. This was 10years ago now 😢 time flys
Those 10000mah 6s are nuts, and just had to get a pair. Last for ages. Hmmm. The Tail of the dragon? Looks like a regular ole A road in the uk. Still, great video and test. Love this kind of stuff. So next project? Route 66?? That’d be cool.
I always wondered how easy it would be to drive an RC from a car following behind. And I wondered what kind of speed you could consistently hold and maintain steady control. I figured 35/40 mph should be pretty easy on a big truck like this? More than that and it could get out of control quite quickly.
It's certainly sketchy and things can get dark REAL fast, that's why I was mentioning to concentrate and stay close to the car. Yeah so the truck is built to maintain 20-30 the whole way, top speed is around 60. But I didn't want to rev the motor that high the whole way. One little distraction and it puts an end to everything. Be careful do it with less traffic
@@InnovationRC if you've went as far as a 360 camera, adventuring to an iconic landmark/site, built your own batteries, convinced someone to assist you and drove down the road while you drove the RC....I think testing out some FPV stuff would be the next natural step. If you could convince someone else to go with you to help flip each other back over, even better. That or have a drone on standby with a meat hook hanging from it to flip it back over lol
A leaf is slippery when ran over. I was considering all terrain just Incase, also rain was supposed to be in the forecast, thankfully ended up not raining
Thanks for watching. I feel like I'm done with speedruns, it's so oversaturated now. Everyone's doing 200+. What's the point in doing 170-180. Plus there's parts to make everyone go fast easily, it isn't a challenge anymore even if I did have a road. I stopped at 160 back in late 2021-early 2022. Instead of just going fast, I want my cars to have more principle, something you can't just slap together, go fast and achieve. I've been hiding one car for over a year that will absolutely blow your mind, that is the purpose of my channel.
@@InnovationRC … love the way you worded that. It’s refreshing to get a unique response. Good point especially with all the limiting factors we’ve been seeing as 200mph is astronomical for an rc car my gawd… what’s that in scale reference?… if it’s a 7th the scale size then that’s 200mph X 7? Pfsh… someone answer this💙💨 because 1,400mph what🤪
No, and yes. In that order. XMaxx is bigger, he was running 16.8 volts fully charged. Even though two batteries were on board, parallel combines capacity without combining voltage.
Parallel is doubling only runtime, voltage stays the same. Big rock is big, but it's slightly lesser and xmaxx. Lighter and has a lot of cargo space, hence why I chose it
I've never been on the tail of the dragon with an RC car but I did drive a slingshot up and down the tale of the dragon even took a minivan down the tail 317 curves and 11 mi les
Right here! This is the ones with 8awg wire and QS8 connectors exactly what I used in this video chinahobbyline.com/collections/innovation-rc-series/products/cnhl-racing-series-10000mah-14-8v-4s-100c-lipo-battery-with-qs8-plug?ref=LM9JnF68TkdSj4
I live a couple hours from there and I’m living prof it’s very dangerous. My back tire got los and off through the woods I went at 50mph, WEEEE lol Thank God I didn’t smack a tree, bike didn’t get so lucky though 🤦🏼♂️
And yeah, far as I know this was the first full run for a RC car on the Dragon in the 22 years we have been covering it. I have done some sections from inside a car, planned to do it all eventually with my Infraction, but haven't yet.
Thank you I appreciate that! I was wishing at the time you were out there to take some pictures as it was driving! Fortunately it was super slow everything was closed, so it was safer, yes. But unfortunate that you weren't there to witness it. Email me, I took a couple pictures on the road at the beginning 🙏 we can exchange info via email. Thanks again and have a great night! brandonmp7@gmail.com
Awesome stuff man. I've been wanting to do this since I got into motorcycles. Jus haven't made the trip yet to do it. Wanted to run the dbxle 2.0 with xlx2 & 1100kv setup up or down the tail.
Killer video 🤘 I just bought a fireteam today to put my spare 2028 800kv in paired with my innovation RC 10k mah 4s batteries and you just happened to basically create the same build 😂 great minds think alike haha! Rig looks great as always brother and again, nice video!
The Fireteam is what changed me from a kool-aid drinking Traxxas fanboy to only having 2 Traxxas remaining in my collection. I've got a couple dozen from several brands and a bunch of Arrma's from Mojave Groms up to 3 8s exb's and the Fireteam is still my favorite truck I've ever owned. It's the best all around and it's bad at nothing.
@InnovationRC it's addicting on a twisted public road. Had an hpi brushless that would do 60 several years ago and would do this through a canyon road heading to my buddy's spot out in the sticks. No fpv at the time, that would make it too much fun.
True. 1000% won't beat the car record. Isn't he average speed like 110 mph? Including stops? I can't get a car to do more than that reliably with temperatures not skyrocketing after the first 20 minutes.
Dude yes! I'll paste my comment from earlier here: I wonder if this could spark a new RC genre: "Trailing" or "Tailing" or something.. Just building the best long distance, reliable, and stable RC for driving from one point to another, followed by a real car. Similar to FPV but without range limitations or expensive head gear I think I would fully enjoy this
MEEEEEE!!!!!!!!! I beeeeen dying to do this!!!!!!! Either with the DJI3 which I have not installed yet but have.. or just line of sight with our boy driving. What I DOOO want to do is a “drag race” follow. There’s absolutely NO WAY the average sports car turbo or not could keep up to the 100mph point which takes about 5 seconds with out loosing traction. I have some nice roads and streets but I’m in Miami. Even north to Hollywood FL is less busy but they put speed bumps on some of our most loved roads, so.., 😞.. but yes, my channel is due for another epic vid.
poor girl was so nervous but still had the trust and resolve to do the entire 11 miles with him…a real trooper to push through that. never take that for granted bro.
It's funny that you say this road is very dangerous because of all the turns. In Europe this kind of roads are very typical, these are also the roads we want when we go for a ride. Hahaha It doesn't mean there is no accident at all but we are more accustomed.
Well, just look at how drivers' licenses are obtained in the US. It definitely clarifies why such an average road (for us Europeans) is so dangerous for Americans.
I'd say 50% of Americans shouldn't be on the road. That's why damn near almost all roads are dangerous. Tail of the Dragon is just on a mountain with a bunch of turns amplifying the danger lol
@InnovationRC I begged my dad yesterday to do a similar thing in highway with my MJX 1/14 scale but he denied me. It needs a lot of patience and willingness to do that kinda help.
I know nothing ab0ut RC cars, but I know that this is a fantastic accomplishment. And I appreciate that he did this with LOTS of thought going into doing it safely, and and with CONSIDERATION for those cars he shared the road with. I just hope he won't inspire others with less talent and safety considerations to try to replicate this idea.
Bro.. this was an absolutely epic video. I wonder if this could spark a new RC genre: "Trailing" or "Tailing" or something.. Just building the best long distance, reliable, and stable RC for driving from one point to another, followed by a real car. Similar to FPV but without range limitations or expensive head gear. This video inspired me, dude!
Everyone seems to be okay with you driving an RC car in traffic in this video for some reason. I normally love your videos but I can’t get behind this one. This one crosses a line for me with RC. It breaks the cardinal rule of all RC, don’t drive your RC car in traffic. If the goal was to see if you could go 10+ miles in an RC car, there are safer ways to do it.
If I didn't already consider that, I would have gone on a busier day. The road for the most part was dead. I agree with you though, told myself I won't be attempting this again. But THIS was the road to conquer. Never been done before, won't be doing this again as I agree with ya 💪
@@InnovationRCshould have never done it at all. Sorry man I just can’t get behind this one, and the fact that “normally you agree with me” means you actively chose against your better judgement, and the fact that everyone here is praising you for it, quite frankly, disgusts me. This flies in the face of RC safety that we all take VERY seriously. Stuff like this is what will ruin RC for all of us. I’ve thrown out customers from my shop who openly praise videos like this. I’m out. I can’t be a part of this. We are already pushing our luck speed running on public roads with no cars in sight with spotters helping us. All it takes is one incident for law enforcement and governments to steam roll us. We are already seeing that with drone regulation. I knew that once lipos and brushless gave us unchecked access to 200+mph with off the shelf parts that it would only be a matter of time before the party is over. Videos like this is exactly why.
Wow. Bye now. 34 mph top speed.... I ride the dragon on a bike once or twice a year. That's not even in the top 10 million most dangerous things that happen on the dragon each year. Everyone on that road is there specifically because it's dangerous. There are trees decorated with the parts from bike and car crashes. I guarantee there wasn't a single angry Karen that seen him on the road during this. There's definitely a couple in the comments section though.
Good job. I was rooting on for the whole 11 miles. No you need to do it on a budget car that the average man can afford. That would be a nice comparison and there is plenty of hundred dollar trucks that would make that 11 mile drive
Thank you! That would certainly be difficult but also likely a greater chance of a hazard not to the vehicle, but to incoming traffic as well as me and Kate. So I definitely wanted to ensure we were safe, also obeying traffic laws. If a cheaper car breaks a gear and I have no brakes, could be horrible
As a motorcycist who have been to the Dragon and into RC - this is really, really cool! Awesome stuff!
Thank you! Very much appreciated!
Guinness book of world records 😮🎉🎉🎉❤putting rc life on the map congratulations 🎊
Thank you!
great job !!! very cool
That was really cool, nice work as always!
That was dope, Bradda.
Salute
I'm a RC addict. I stumbled on this video in my feed. Great video. The interaction with your girl was cute. Thanks
Haha thanks! Glad you enjoyed appreciate you watching!
Yea it’s nice to know that it’s possible to be in the rc hobby and that there are girls that can tolerate us lol.
@@toysforboysrc they can tolerate you in this hobby if you tolerate them with what they like and want to do also. Push and pull in a relationship
@ …. Absolutely that’s what’s up!! My wife supports my hobbies and I’m there for her in other ways. With today’s social media standards it’s nice to see that we can still connect like old fashion humans lol.
Heck yeah way to go. Thank you to you and Kate for accomplishing this feat!!!
Thanks for watching!
Awesome video, Gotta put a Cloud RC, LTE receiver, and FPV camera, so you can do it completely remote, might be able to get a much better time.
Exceptional setup and content as always! Keep em coming…
Thanks Gabriel!
Great Video Bro. You come up with the craziest ideas😂😂. You Should Do This Run With A FPOV Camera.
Looks like I gotta find an FPV camera! Everyone wants me to do it
Great video! A great idea for a show.
Great road great rc car great video
Thank you, thank you and thanks! 🙏
Awesome I have done this before with my Kraton 8s, it is so much fun watching people's reactions
RC Legend you are!!
I try my best 🙏
Good stuff, brother!
Very much appreciated!
Mario Kart body on that would be epic 😜
I just wonder what the THP or NCHP would've had to say if they saw this! 🚔 Very cool, nice job!
This is awesome man keep up the videos !
Thank you glad you liked it!
I hope you can get into guinness book of world records if you’re the first to complete this. That was awesome. Nice GWG2000 by the way!
That would be awesome! I think they would have to be present while I do it though so they can verify the run. And thanks about the g shock I love them!
@ you should look into it. Especially if you have it all documented
Maybe I will!
Surprised by how well it tracks. Which is highlighted in the fast forward video.
Been there many times with the motorcycles and I’ve never seen anyone with an RC, definitely a cool stunt/achievement 👍🔥
Thank you for watching! I appreciate that! I'd love to drive one of those slingshots next time I go there
That is so awesome I wish I had a rc car like that this video just inspired me to get back into rc driven ❤
Very cool 🤘
Thank you!
That's cool!
that was epic bro. the scenery looked amazing. great vid 🔥🔥👊🏼👊🏼
Thanks Heat 🔥🙏💪
That was awesome
Awesome video 📹, and you are the first to do that, and you did it with the great awesome vehicle. The big rock success, awesome job man
Thank you! I appreciate you watching!
Sweet!. Nicely done
Your girlfriends laugh was making me laugh. You can understand why she was giggling away just by putting yourself in her position watching that little truck driving along in front of you, on a main road and imagining what others coming the other way were thinking lol
Awesome 🎉
This is crazy!😊
Thank you!
Pretty cool 😎😎👍👍
Just subscribed… also what kind of wing is that? Looks amazing
Thanks for the sub! It's an Outcast 8s wing!
Fantastic mate 👏. Golden 😅😂😂
Thank you!
Fantastic content and a great build! Please thank Kate for her help in bringing this content to the channel.✌️
We appreciate that thank you!
You get amazing set up. We love to see you for the next video if you could put some. Fpv camera system. It will be awesome.
This is great 👍 sick
Thanks I appreciate it!
This is why he’s called Innovation RC!!! Good job guys!!
I appreciate it 🙏 thanks for watching!
Very cool. I live in a lake community and have a arrma Granite Boost about to convert to 4x4 and add power too. The road around our lake is 8 miles with a speed limit of 25MPH. I think you have inspired me to try to make the trip! That should make for an awesome video. Congratulations 🎉👍🏾
Thank you I appreciate it! You can likely do it with the granite just need a super long lasting battery to do it
Be cool to see how far it will go @ 40mph before cutoff. What was your ending voltage?
Nice, god jobb! 😅
Z-oh-thick lol Great job!
Was this done on 4s 20,000mah due to the way you’ve wired them up
Yeah they were wired in parallel. At the beginning overview I showed the connectors I used
First time i ever rode the dragon tail was at night around 20 years ago on a CBR954rr and i was hooked. It's about a 7 hour drive for me and I've been back at least once a year since. It's a great bike road and looked like a great RC road. I'd suggest next time take an Infraction during warm weather. Bring your favorite sport bike along to.

I bet the bikes got a good laugh at you when they saw it.
Do you think it would make the trip going up instead of doing down? Great video!
I thought there was an even amount of ups and down the way I went. I also wanted to start at the beginning instead of the tail. Either way the inclines scared me, surely slowed the truck down a lot!
That is so cool! Driving a car from the car is a dream of mine, and you did it on the coolest road! Now do it faster! 🙂
As much as I want to, it's dangerous! I'm pretty happy with this! Thank you! I've been to North Carolina 3 times and every time I told myself I wanted to do this. And now I did!
I did the same thing on bogus basin road with my yokomo yd2zx 1/10 with a 8300mah 2s and a 3300kv tekin motor and gen2 tekin esc. It drifted amazingly but couple times i hit some decent sized rocks and sent me into a spin out. Wish i would have filmed it. This was 10years ago now 😢 time flys
Great job!!
Thank you!
Ayeeeeee. Congrats!
Thank you!
@ those tires look brand new still lol
Those 10000mah 6s are nuts, and just had to get a pair. Last for ages. Hmmm. The Tail of the dragon? Looks like a regular ole A road in the uk. Still, great video and test. Love this kind of stuff. So next project? Route 66?? That’d be cool.
I'd love to try route 66! Yeah the big 6s packs are insane, absolute bricks for sure 👍
is that a Kia Stinger?
Yes sir it is! A 2021 GT AWD

What a fun test run! Looks like you're ramping up to be able to do some pretty awesome FPV runs!
Even if you're not, another great video 🍻
Very much appreciated thanks! I thought about doing FPV 🤔
@@InnovationRC if you've went as far as a 360 camera, adventuring to an iconic landmark/site, built your own batteries, convinced someone to assist you and drove down the road while you drove the RC....I think testing out some FPV stuff would be the next natural step.

Love your channel.. where abouts in South Florida are you guys? I'm in Ft Lauderdale...hell of a run bro
I'm in Coral Springs!
@InnovationRC nice...my whole family is out there. We'll mostly tamarac and coral springs. Would love to do a collab video or something!
What's the rear wing you're using?
It's a 1/5 Arrma outcast wing
Awesome step up in video. Much appreciated. Keep it Innovative.
you should do more of these but take
one on the highway 😂
Next Chattanooga Skyway.
Great run. Why didn't you use on-road wheels?
A leaf is slippery when ran over. I was considering all terrain just Incase, also rain was supposed to be in the forecast, thankfully ended up not raining
25 HP. Put that motor setup in a go cart

@@InnovationRCYeah but kraton is Horizon a Company not deserved to be supported.
get a hd vtx for fpv
Maybe I should do fpv next
Great video Brandon, it's definitely different, also area looks nice, makes me miss my hometown. Keep the videos coming, awesome!
Thanks Shawn! Yeah I love it up there
I've never been on the tail of the dragon with an RC car but I did drive a slingshot up and down the tale of the dragon even took a minivan down the tail 317 curves and 11 mi les
I've always wanted to drive a slingshot! They look like fun!
@InnovationRC it was an absolute blast we rented one and Gatlinburg and that's when we drove it to the dragon's tail
Great video, nice accomplishment driving it that distance, great team effort with your gf
Thank you! We appreciate it 🙏
Well done!

Thanks Juston!
Now this is how you RC. Genius sir. I look forward to the Cannonball run...
I honestly thought of that 😂 gosh but that would be ridiculous would have to top off every 10-15 miles. Take me days to do
Thank you!
@@InnovationRC 15 pairs of batteries or something. Obviously you won't beat the car record... Unless... you scale it accordingly
True. 1000% won't beat the car record. Isn't he average speed like 110 mph? Including stops? I can't get a car to do more than that reliably with temperatures not skyrocketing after the first 20 minutes.
@ what happened to that can do attitude. If you run it 1/10 you’d only need 11mph
Nice the tail of the dragon is a killer road should also try the talon up here in West Virginia
Maybe that'll be next!
@ yeah its a close 2nd
Insane . Some will call it innovative , even . Im just going to watch, theres rc History been made here , boys & girls .

Those FPV headsets can definitely get pricy, long range setups in general can get up there too. But we will see what the future holds!

@@HarrieWorstdidn’t realize driving through a f*cking mountain with no reception is part of the average European commute
You must introduce Kate to us.
I wanted to, but she's very camera shy lol maybe one day!
@InnovationRC I begged my dad yesterday to do a similar thing in highway with my MJX 1/14 scale but he denied me. It needs a lot of patience and willingness to do that kinda help.
Very cool video,what was the percentage of the batteries at the end
48%! I forgot to record the ending voltage of the batteries I was too hyped lol
I know nothing ab0ut RC cars, but I know that this is a fantastic accomplishment. And I appreciate that he did this with LOTS of thought going into doing it safely, and and with CONSIDERATION for those cars he shared the road with. I just hope he won't inspire others with less talent and safety considerations to try to replicate this idea.
Well said!
Your hard work earned that badge of success and one of the top go to guys on RUclips for best concert. Congratulations.
Bro.. this was an absolutely epic video. I wonder if this could spark a new RC genre: "Trailing" or "Tailing" or something.. Just building the best long distance, reliable, and stable RC for driving from one point to another, followed by a real car. Similar to FPV but without range limitations or expensive head gear. This video inspired me, dude!
I appreciate it K5! Thanks! 🙏
Everyone seems to be okay with you driving an RC car in traffic in this video for some reason. I normally love your videos but I can’t get behind this one. This one crosses a line for me with RC. It breaks the cardinal rule of all RC, don’t drive your RC car in traffic.
If the goal was to see if you could go 10+ miles in an RC car, there are safer ways to do it.
If I didn't already consider that, I would have gone on a busier day. The road for the most part was dead. I agree with you though, told myself I won't be attempting this again. But THIS was the road to conquer. Never been done before, won't be doing this again as I agree with ya 💪
@@InnovationRCshould have never done it at all. Sorry man I just can’t get behind this one, and the fact that “normally you agree with me” means you actively chose against your better judgement, and the fact that everyone here is praising you for it, quite frankly, disgusts me. This flies in the face of RC safety that we all take VERY seriously. Stuff like this is what will ruin RC for all of us. I’ve thrown out customers from my shop who openly praise videos like this. I’m out. I can’t be a part of this.
We are already pushing our luck speed running on public roads with no cars in sight with spotters helping us. All it takes is one incident for law enforcement and governments to steam roll us. We are already seeing that with drone regulation. I knew that once lipos and brushless gave us unchecked access to 200+mph with off the shelf parts that it would only be a matter of time before the party is over.
Videos like this is exactly why.
Couldn’t agree more Piggly.
Wow. Bye now. 34 mph top speed.... I ride the dragon on a bike once or twice a year. That's not even in the top 10 million most dangerous things that happen on the dragon each year. Everyone on that road is there specifically because it's dangerous. There are trees decorated with the parts from bike and car crashes. I guarantee there wasn't a single angry Karen that seen him on the road during this. There's definitely a couple in the comments section though.
@@PigglyWigglyDeluxebut you watched the video and read all comments, Mr double standards 😂
Great idea .now time to try that with my ARRMA Limitless
I could! But I don't want to keep doing this, driving on a real road is dangerous
lol somebodies camera shy. dont see why, shes probably better looking than me. 😆
Good job. I was rooting on for the whole 11 miles. No you need to do it on a budget car that the average man can afford. That would be a nice comparison and there is plenty of hundred dollar trucks that would make that 11 mile drive
Thank you! That would certainly be difficult but also likely a greater chance of a hazard not to the vehicle, but to incoming traffic as well as me and Kate. So I definitely wanted to ensure we were safe, also obeying traffic laws. If a cheaper car breaks a gear and I have no brakes, could be horrible
Now ya gotta do it with a Limitless at the speed limit!
Very cool content!
Keep it comin!💯✌️
I thought of that! It's too dangerous I feel 😂
Thank you!
