    I like my suspension to work on all my cars and trucks it looks good and drives good when everything is working smoothly 😊👍

      That car has ideal suspension for its size, weight and design right out of the box. You don't see that often.

    Beautiful looking car. The body, windows, rims ect. It sure does look 1/10 scale. What I like the most is the way Losi placed the motor inside the car instead of hanging out the back like the DR-10. I'm sure we will see more of this car in the future and plenty of cool speed runs. Great job Rek RC. 👍👍

      Also the motor position is adjustable on the losi from what I've heard. I haven't looked into that yet, but the little Losi is not only one of the fastest 2s only RTR cars out of the box, but I really think it's THE QUICKEST 2s only RTR in stock form. The DR10 is made with the idea of tuning in mind, so out of the box it's geared like the SCT it's based on but there are all kinds of gearing options and tuning potential for it. To me it seems the DR10 is designed to get an RTR no prep drag car into your collection for cheap, then you tune it from there. I'll be tuning mine for sure.

      @@Rek_Rc Good deal. Your new car is awesome. You do your research and it's nice when you share it with us. I really like watching RC drags. Dirt or street but I think I'll try to stay in the dirt with my DR10 until I find a better location and get my driving skills up. Too much carnage if you crash into curbs. Obviously my DR10 is not tuned but I had some Toe Out on my last run and someone said for straight runs give it some slight Toe In. Seems reasonable. I'm looking forward to more runs with your Chevelle. I know you'll have it dialed in and get some impressive speed out of it. Especially off the line. That thing rips....

    I was able to pick one up, new in the box. The body had been used by a friend of the hobby shop so it had a couple scratches. Crazy part........$100

      Omg you stole it at that price. It's a ripper..I have footage of it nearly beating two legit fast cars, one was the big brother 22s. It just accelerates so quickly. Tops out about 38 MPH but it almost doesn't matter because it hits that speed almost instantly.

      Awe hahahaha man I've been there. But, that little losi was worth the potential night in the doghouse though, they really rip, it takes a high speed 3s powered car to beat it in a drag race and even then, it will still win often.

    I just bought one and just noticed the wheels are turned to the right! How do I make them straight? It’s a good thing I noticed before I took it on his first run. It would’ve went around in a circle or hit something.Thanks!

      Yes what happened was when I put the batteries and remote I couldn’t figure out how to cut the remote on so a buddy of mine, took it and he must’ve turned a few knobs on it I noticed on the left there’s a switch, but I can’t quite read what it says I noticed when I push the switch to wheels go left to right and on the right side. There’s a knob and I noticed that when I turned the knob, the wheels goes. left to right, so I’m assuming this is like a trim? I messed with it the best I can but I still can’t get it to go quite straight.

    • @Rek_Rc
      @Rek_Rc  5 месяцев назад +1

      @kennethwilson2409 that sounds like the trim knob. If that isn't doing the trick, I would look into adjusting the servo endpoints, there is videos and articles about how to do that, also look to see if any physical linkage might be bent. Sometimes in transit, packages take quite a beating. It does seem strange though because that car runs famously straight consistently.
