- The hype period is over. Now it's time for an honest review. In this RC review I hope to show the new Rlaarlo AK917 as factually as possible and without marketing speak. The new 1/10th scale supercar from Rlaarlo has a lot of bold claims. Including a very high top speed. Will this be the new fastest RTR on the market?

Was the AK917 the car you were anticipating?
Yeah it was lol 😂
Cancelled mine due Rlaarlo's bad customer service and took a lesson: Never buy from Rlaarlo again.
@ZeroUH customer service was great with me. My car was marked delivered but I never got it, they sent me out a replacement free of charge.
Very thorough review. Nobody else has talked about the points you brought up. Thanks for making this video. 👍
The only honest review that we get so far. Thank you.
My metal RTR arrived yesterday, haven't opened the box yet. True like you said about finding a suitable location that will actually work for speed, almost impossible in Toronto for me with our terrible roads! Keep the excellent 917 vids coming!
Yeah difficult to find a road. Usually that road is really nice. But on the day I filmed the conditions were really bad! I think I prefer this car just shredding tires around a carpark on 3s instead of speedrunning.
@@ChinaExpatsRC Yes i'll be doing the same having fun, i'm fine with 2s and 3s only with this one.
I got one ordering, and it is very detailed
Nice review, I called them direct yesterday. They promised to ship to me today. 🤞
Thanks for the review i am going to get one it looks really slick new sub here cool videos
Thanks, you can use the code and link in the description for an additional 10% off.
At least you’re honest about the car
you should add a very important part to the review thats how long replacement parts take to be delivered so far ive been waiting over three weeks for conformation it been sent have read others have been waiting 5 weeks plus so dont brake anything unless your an RUclips influencer
Yeah I've heard this has been an issue. Hope they resolve it soon.
Personally, I think the aluminum chassis version is better suited as a basher...but, the CF version does make for a very capable speedrun car. Although I haven't started upgrading mine (other than the shocks), several others have already gotten theirs up to speeds in excess of 100mph. I truly believe the AK-917 is going to give the Arrma Vendetta a serious run for the money. 🤙🏼
Thanks for the vid. Like some people I'm hyped about having a 1/10 car that could go super fast but, truth be told, I still don't know where I'm going to safely run it to get anything like the speeds in the pictures my imagination is painting. Mine arrives in a week or so.. we'll see I guess.
Have fun!
Good video.... I really appreciate the honesty!
I was really wanting one based on the hype but it is slower than my Traxxas Bandit with some gearing and tire modifications. Maybe it has more potential but it does not seem all that it is cracked up to be. I really thought it would be more stable at speed and quicker. I am curious to see what folks get out of them with some gearing modifications.
I ran 76mph completely stock yesterday after changing the gearing to the largest pinion and medium spur that comes on the car. I'll post a video soon. But it's a terrifying experience, really hard to keep straight. Upgrading the servo, adding a gyro and using foam tires will improve things and that will be my next step.
DUDE!! This car would be a excellent feature as a LeMans RC Racing!! That's crazy!!! The car sure looks beautiful!!
It's based on the Porsche 917 LeMans car. I think it will make a great track RC car.
Stay Charged!
I have ordered the 550 brushed motor rlaarlo version, does any body know how fast it is on 2s battery thanks
Hello , can It be a good drift car with some proper drift tyres?
I think the by electric parts they mean batteries, turbo mode makes it accelerate 30% faster apparently
I want one but I'm poor and stupid. I know after a week I'd set up a ramp
2:08 only the clear part at the end receives the signal, so coiling the grey part makes no difference. .
Burying the antenna deep in the car will affect signal though. If they were too rough they can also break the antenna internally. Many reviewers had loss of signal issues with this car.
@@ChinaExpatsRC QC issues aside, the stock placement should be fine. It's best to have the antenna aligned vertically due to the blind spot above the tip.
Don't put the antenna on the carbon fibre as it will reduce the effective range.
It's all plastic on this car
@@jeffdavis6715 there's a carbon version.
@@BigDuke6ixx yes
@@jeffdavis6715 I wasn't asking you I was telling you.
3billion miles per hour is expected lmaoo
Yeah Riaarlo customer service is Horrible !!! I purchased a AK-917 carbon fiber RTR on 4/29/23 I paid extra for expedited shipping ok on 5/6/23 I got a shipping email so about a week passes so I track it and it says waiting for carrier/DHL to pick up item. So I message DHL and they said Riaarlo only made a electronic email that they could not pick up item, So I message Riaarlo and again and again and again so on and no response nothing to this day about my order WTF Riaarlo??? I will never purchase anything from them again !!!!!!!!!!!!
First!
This vehicle is a great paper weight. Trash 🗑 or how you say utter rubbish.
The only way you could get 200kph is throw it out of a helicopter or of a very tall cliff.
