When I first installed this unit on my LOSI Tenacity SCT, I figured it'd just be something cool to show other people. BUT, I was so blown away myself by how realistic it sounds, not to mention how loud it is, that I can't imagine running my R/C's without one. It really does add a whole new dimension to R/Cing!
That's a great idea, to be able to download all those different sounds, Phil! Nice bit of kit there mate! Haha - loved the Dixie horns! Great vid mate! :))
Just bought one of these after watching your video, 😊😊 can't wait for it to come, if I like it may buy a few more for my other cars, not for all 26 tho, ain't got that much money, lol.
@@TomleyRC bought 2 so far for both my axial scx10ii's, their brilliant, nearly as loud a my sound system in my tamiya tiger tank and that's 4 times the size of this speaker.
Is it possible to bluetooth it to other speakers than the one one the car. So you could run the car sound through your home sound system for extra power
This old one came up whilst I was looking at Sound Systems.... This is by far the BEST sounding. ESPECIALLY when you rev it!!! That's where 80% of them fail, to me. On some, you accelerate and instead of hearing the Engine SPEED get higher - what you actually hear is merely the PITCH of the sound going up and down!! 😖 Horrible really. I wonder if they're even better today, or merely more expensive. Your Video has got me curious. 😉 Cheers! Carmine ✈🚂🚙
Is it possible to setup the Dixie horn sound to a stock Trx4 controller & channel box? I’ve got this on my Trx4 Bronco but am unsure on where to plug my Aux cable, & unsure on if I can setup the horn to my stock trx4 remote controller as you did with that one? If you have any info you could spare, I’d really appreciate it!! Thanks & great video!
Tomley RC, 10-4. I appreciate the information. I’ll have to research more about the channels then. Excuse my ignorance as I’m new to the hobby. Don’t know much about them at this point still. Lol! I do appreciate the response though Tomley! In return of you getting back to me, as I’ve left comments on multiple vids asking, I’ll go ahead and subscribe to your channel! Again, much appreciated Sir!!
Tomley RC, Not a problem! 😬yeah I was thinking about getting into the receiver box and checking. I thought there might be 6 channels total. Not quite sure myself lol! Definitely a fun hobby, originally started out as something to do with my nephews, but has turned into a hobby for myself solo as well 😂 Had to subscribe regardless as you have some pretty awesome RC’s and some entertaining videos Sir! Looking forward to seeing more as time passes. I’ll definitely be staying tuned! 🙂
Can you describe how it performs when changing from Forward to Reverse? Do you have to pause when driving? My ESS ONE+ will go to idle perfectly, but if I proceed to Reverse from Forward (and vice versa) too quickly it goes to idle and 'gets stuck'. That is, it fails to detect the throttle is being applied. To be fair it forces me to drive in a more scale fashion, as in 1:1 it takes a moment to shift from FWD to REV and we often ignore that scale effect.
Yes it will be compatible. RCSparks made a video about waterproofing, but for some reason it has been deleted. I just took it apart and covered the electronics in few coats of conformal coating
The Dixie Horns represent my Child hood, and I expect many others as well. We should concentrate on not repeating history, rather than trying to erase it. George Orwell once said... "The most effective way to destroy people is to deny and obliterate their own understanding of their history".
Thank God for Amazon's return policy because I'm about to return my second one of these after the software bricked the unit. It worked fine until I went to change the sounds and the updates failed and deleted what was on there. Then I tried a factory reset and that also failed and bricked the unit the rest of the way. Now I can't even update the firmware because the software no longer recognizes and connects to the unit (and all of the this for the second time with a new unit). No advice or fixes or workarounds to be found online either. Such a shame because there's a ton of good reviews and lots of people getting great use out of it, but my experience is that it's absolutely garbage. 0/10 do not buy unless you're going to be happy with the factory preset sounds.=

Yeah, it's awesome isn't it!
I just got one and it’s sick!!!
Thanks for going the extra mile and explaining the AUX cable. Everyone else leaves it out. As you said, it’s the best part 😊
The M3 turbo flutter on that!!!!!! 💪🏼🔥👌🏼 music to my ears!
At first I thought it was kinda dumb. Now I have a crawler and that horn just sold me. There cool af!!!
yes haha... it's a cool feature :)
That's a great idea, to be able to download all those different sounds, Phil! Nice bit of kit there mate! Haha - loved the Dixie horns! Great vid mate! :))
Cheers Mark...I couldn't resist the Dixie horns! Got a laugh from a dog walker as they were going past :)
it sounds sooooooo amazing with such good sound quality
It's awesome, the diesel sound for this truck is perfect!
This is a really useful video most of the videos I watched about this product didn’t showcase this sort of stuff.👍
Thanks Joshua
I will definitely use this for the new cen f450 truck amazing
I agree. The Dixie horn is enough for me to want one. Just to hit it when I launch my car lol
haha, yeah it's pretty awesome!
Very nice, the Dual. Sounds louder.
I got the Sense Innovations ESS One Plus LE Sound Simulator 👌🏿
Get a turbo on the crawler engie and your in there with this sound unit. The horn was a gas had my laughing lmao. Good stuff Tomley👍
Cheers dude. The sound already has a turbo on it, although you can hardly hear it. Needs a louder one :)
Nice!
A good smaller in-apartment-option is Sturmkind Dr!ft. 👍
Just bought one of these after watching your video, 😊😊 can't wait for it to come, if I like it may buy a few more for my other cars, not for all 26 tho, ain't got that much money, lol.
haha, yeah, 26 sound units would be a little expensive!

Love this! It’s pricey but worth it! Many many options! Great review!👍👍👍
Cheers dude. I'm really impressed with the sound
Very awesome my friend great review seems like it works really nice
Full watch and Like 👊✈️
Cheers dude
Nice sounds, I was thinking of getting one of these, they are great, fantastic unboxing and review bro 👍😁👍
Cheers Tony. They are really good!
Really nice sound box, man! Really interesting! 😃
Cheers dude, it's a good bit of kit!
Guess I'll have to 3d print a bracket for my gen 7
holy crap thats cool
Nice review . This is one of the better one's. KILLER job . 👍✔..
Although it’d probably loosen bolts, I think it’d be awesome if it vibrated and rocked when the engine gets revved.
Yes that would be awesome
0:16 Da Dixie Horn Sound
Waterproof too??? Awesome!
Could this be run with a stock WPL battery? Really would love this in my wpl
Nice trx4
The main website is no longer available. How do we get more sounds now?
Will it work with a stock slash 2wd vxl 3s controller just for the engine sound?
Def want.
Dixie horn is great!
Certainly good fun....I got a laugh from a local dog walker :)
Which is you favorite value for money sound kit?
This one Pritish.....it sounds so good! And lots of options for more sounds
You ever bump into and issue were you can't get into calibration mode?
Can you do the willys jeep sound? I would like to hear it before I buy one! 😊
AWESOME!!! Thank You!!

This one has some very nice sounds available, I've not had enough time to test them all
I bought 2 of these. Can you tell me how you got the horn to work? What channel did you use?
Hi there what is and where did you get the Toyota SWB yellow in the background Thanks
It was a cheap toy that Banggood sold a while back. Doesn't seem to be on the website anymore
Yep but it dont work on the LOSI DBXL-E 2.0 buggy
Very NEIC.
I subscribed
Thank you
Sweet!!!!
Is that water proof?

To use the Horn you need a 3rd channel...or Aux. It's just a single cable that goes in to the receiver.

Kanuspel No problem mate, and thanks. I’m sure you can use the Traxxas set up, but I don’t own a TRX4 so can’t positively answer 👍🏻

Can you have diesel sound without airbrakes?
Yes, you can remove the brake sound
Where is that 70 series body in the backround from?
Can it be installed on a FMS Fj40 kit?
Does it actually have like have sounds like the 350,454,460, Cummins,catapiller,detroit?
Check the website mate. Tells you all the sounds
Does this need two battery's in car to make it work 🤔 or does it work off main battery?
Runs off the main battery
@@TomleyRC Hi, I was just wondering if you can plug the red power cable from the ESS into the red plug coming out of the ESC? (On TRX4)
Does this work to a traxxas stampede? Or the traxxas Bigfoot?
How do you blow the dixie horn?
Can you describe how it performs when changing from Forward to Reverse? Do you have to pause when driving?

Cool👍
How's it hold up if truck goes through water?
I water proofed it. Don’t recommend it for a stock one though
What did you waterproof it with?
I downloaded the horn but can't get it to work ? The motor sound works but not the horn
Does it work for the 4tec 2.0 vxl? I want to do a general lee build
Yes it will do
@@TomleyRC awesome thank you
How to connect to horn sound sir?
Hi is it waterproof?
I know im late, but wil this work on a Slash 4x4? Or is it to big to fit?
Yes should work 👍...think I've seen one on a Slash
is this Waterproof?
Can it download music ??
Does it work on rc T90 MBT?
How do you trigger the horn sound I cans figure it out.
Two questions
1) Is compatible with Tamiyas?
2) How you waterproof the system?
Thanks
Yes it will be compatible. RCSparks made a video about waterproofing, but for some reason it has been deleted. I just took it apart and covered the electronics in few coats of conformal coating
@@TomleyRC
Thank you.
I was thinking use Plasti Tape for the joints and after that use a balloon
Where can i get that yellow 2 door cruiser in the back of video i love it
Used to be on Banggood, but not there anymore
Can you play some Van Halen through this? 😬
Hi tom
Is this system waterproof to am extent thanks
No mate, I waterproofed it myself
Tomley rc how did you waterproof it
MTB_ KJL Conformal Coating.
Does it have " bus wankers " horn from inbetweeners ?
No...but I hope they do offer it at some point 😂
Can’t get this to work on a Losi LMT. Anyone know how to get it to work?
Does anyone know if i can put this in a hpi venture?
The Pride of Dixie from a Brit...LOL
🇬🇧😅
Mine says it can only do the car ones and it can't do plane sounds :( lol
Should do them all if it's the ESS One or Dual?
The Dixie horns are cool, but please do some research on what it represents in the southern states of the U.S. just sayin'....

Is it waterproof
No
It’s some size though 🤔
Could the Real F1 change the sound of the engines like the ones from 1998 ??? __________________________________ until Formula E hehehe

Im not looking for cars, Im looking for a GENERIC SPEAKER that i can use to play quotes from a film...
😂😂😂
yeah, Dixie ain't cool. This device is though.
Can it download music??
