It's crazy how far rc cars have come. I had some very cheap basic ones in the seventies and ended with a Tamiya Willies Jeep in the eighties that cost all my paper route money b4 moving on to other things.
It’s hilarious to think that someone believes almost 20 years ago is the same as the 1980s…. Lipo batteries, brushless motors, not to mention ELECTRONIC speed controls. How about buying kits with 3 speed resistors that ran off the second cheap ass servo that came with the radio. I mean, batteries did charge in 15 minutes. But they ran for 10. Plus they didn’t have 10% the power you can get with even a 2s lipo then.
I started with a tamiya bearhawk in the early 90's..had one of those servo controlled speed controllers and a ridiculously thick plastic shell..a old school brushed motor and at the time it was kinda "exotic" lmao..Times change FAST!!
Wow Kevin, been watching your vids for years and they just keep getting better and better, very well put together and very professional. Great editing in the first part to speed along the process, but didn't cut corners and did things right! (Like drilling and taping the servo arms to the right size) Great job as always!
You're the man! Ever think of hiring someone to shoot drone footage, especially for the high jumps and top speed runs? If I lived near you I wouldn't ask for money or being in the credits, just the satisfaction of being a part of your channel would be enough.. keep waffling and the tumble wumbles coming! From upstate NY, USA (not NYC)
AWSOME.... I live vicariously through your videos dude.... I wish I had money to have " Christmas Every Day " I've tried ebay and that didn't really work out but I plan on trying again one day soon
Great Video, Kevin! Howdy from Texas. That was informative and so much fun to watch. Thanks for all you do; you keep us laughing and happy. How's the monster truck coming along? And we need more Raminator videos. Lol. Bash on!
Thanks Kevin my name is Daniel and the first RC car I owned was a Tamia Grasshopper kit with a variable resistor for the speed controller. I’ve owned lots of RC cord and trucks in my life and thanks to you I’ve picked my next vehicle because you drive them like me ie like I stole them.
Ebay is one of the worst places to sell now due to the Ebay's forced shipping charges, increased commissions and fraud placed on sellers at a higher rate than ever. With 1300 positive feedbacks since '98, I have stopped selling on there. Ebay's listings for products are also way down. There used to be 20 pages for an item and now there is only a few which means the prices are higher.
Hello Kevin excellent bash session also you are a very lucky guy you have the coolest crowd of friends that live in your area every one who is on any of your videos are really nice bunch of people so what's UK thanks your friendly neighborhood Doorman william from NJ Forgettaboutit lol 😆
I love your 1/5 scale vids! All of them are great. But as someone aspiring to get into 1/5th scale. It particularly interests me. Also, have you ever thought of doing any of the Kraken Vecta.5? Those look like amazing quality rigs and something that sometimes takes a little criticism for breaking. But they look so well build I have hard time believing it. And of course with the standard fair of must have aluminum upgrades as anything with that much weight tends to break when bashed.
i have a question... do you know how i would fix my rc ford mustang mech e, because it wont turn on and the lights for the demo test works, but the car doesn't turn on at all. Would you know how to fix that problem?
Makes me wanna get back into it. Have a Losi XX buggy from 94 found in a box in storage forgot i had. Would need serious upgrades if i tried to get it "current"
@KevinTalbot have you thought about buying a Pocket cnc machine? You could machine your own metal rc parts. Something to consider. Keep up the good work mate!
Kevin you helped me out so much without you I would never have gotten my xmaxx fixed again and make sure everyone to subscribe like and turn on that notification bell!!
I do love 1/5 rc this was a great video. Looks like fun in the track with so many large scale. I’ve got my eyes on the new Losi DBXL 2.0 gas. It’s got the 32cc zenoah. Would be a lot of fun. I’ve got a 1/5 12S Losi 5B converted buggy also

and now for 100-150$ you can get a pretty good entry level one .

Now you can grab a couple of 3s batteries for $60, a motor and ESC for $60 and whatever gearing you want, the sky (or your diff) is the limit.

I found the other half to your wing the other week Kev 🤣 I'm so glad you got that jump over Jay's 30c north at the end, that was 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Nice one!
@@KevinTalbotTV just got myself a 30c north for the next session 🤣 can't wait to rip it at ARC on Sunday.
Haha, really?! Thats crazy! Keep it as a souvenir 🤣
wow thats crazy... 38.84 uros for it
If anyone wants it, it is in the corner of a pit table at ARC Raceway 👍 hope to see you there 😉
Kev knows what having an rc car catch fire feels like 😂
Omg yessss
Can you do more e-revo 1/16 videos, I have one and they're fun rc's.
I have one to!(:
I want one too!
I’m thinking of getting one
@@maherkahala5269 they are fun. The vxl chews diffs though(3s)
They're*
I love it Kev. " What is all this racket? Crunch. Much better." That's awesome stuff

That finish line crossing at the end was EPIC!
With spectrum 8s electronics you can also wind up punch and the motor timing to make an appreciable improvement for no money ! ;)
That Looks Absolutely EPIC!!
When you asked if we could have any rc we wanted in the stream the other day the DBXL would be my choice
No matter how bad of a day I am having. Watch a video from Kev and I get a smile on my face. Must be his awesome attitude towards life.
I'm a new RC fan. You're videos got me loving it. 👍
You've come sooooo far from when I first started watching your channel. Now you're huge (so she said). Loving the content amigo.
I actually love your wrenching background music Kev! Too groovy 😎
I love this content! Keep up the amazing skills🔥
you can put xmaxx whells on the losi dbxle 2.0 to make it look better
Kev.....You are such a craftsman !!!
That last clip of overtaking by jumping over was pretty awesome!
AWSOME.... I live vicariously through your videos dude.... I wish I had money to have " Christmas Every Day " I've tried ebay and that didn't really work out but I plan on trying again one day soon
The final jump was just GREAT!!!
Omg that last jump was EPIC!!
I was just gonna check the channels on how to make my truck faster and your video was on time thanks man... Great video
Great timing just got into study hall
Quality! Looks like a beast! The onboard Footie is terrific! 👍👍👍👍
WOW Kevin Talbot awesome RC upgrade! 😍🥰
That was a GREAT " roof ride " there at the end !!! AWESOME VIDEO
Love the smiles. Great job.
That thing is absolutely EPIC 🔥
Great Video, Kevin! Howdy from Texas. That was informative and so much fun to watch. Thanks for all you do; you keep us laughing and happy. How's the monster truck coming along? And we need more Raminator videos. Lol. Bash on!
I love watching your shows they're a blast plus you get a lot of good information keep doing that
I really like the part where Kev fights with the esc fan and said ‘shut up’ to it 😂😂
I recently stumbled across your videos and me and my son are hooked! You've gained a new sub and hopefully a new RC member 😅
Holly cats I enjoyed seeing the jump you made over that white RC truck.
Wow, the way you customize that so the screws fit. They basically have a tool for everything nowadays. 👍
that leap-frog at the end! EPIC!
I love Kev’s “wrenching” each and every time I see it 👍
Got my Dbxl last week not had chance to run it yet. Love your videos kev 👌
I love the on board and slow mo close up stuff of the tires and suspension good work on your videos
Thanks Kevin my name is Daniel and the first RC car I owned was a Tamia Grasshopper kit with a variable resistor for the speed controller. I’ve owned lots of RC cord and trucks in my life and thanks to you I’ve picked my next vehicle because you drive them like me ie like I stole them.
Car’s oops
Pretty awesome racing with those nitro rigs..you can see the electric torque from the holeshots. Sheesh those Losi rigs are massive
He is the only RUclipsr that I know who haven’t changed because of popularity!
The jump over the orange truck 🛻 was sweet.
The driver POV was super cool!
"You really just stuck a screwdriver in the ecs like that🤣😂" lol I was just laughing when he left it in there. Your hilarious kev 😂
This is 👌 what a BEAST this car is now. Thing was cool before now just a whole different ball game.
Hehe. So much fun with Kevin. He's crazy but he's a very good rc driver around the track 🤣👍
That looks really fun and like how you show us how you fix up RC cars
Thanku kevin for doin a video with this car, its awesome.

That orange and red is sick
It make me happy when you post
Losi doesn't really get the recognition they deserve imo.
They really make some quality stuff.
5Ts are epic in stock form but trick em out and they make a awesome bit of kit and bulletproof
That's a sweet servo. I put it in the scx6, and it is doing fantastic
Finally more videos about Losi rc cars (:
Great POV from the GoPro.
Kevin can you post a link to get tires/rims from?? The ones you borrowed from your friend? Thanks mate😉👍🏼💯
Thanks for the upload kev !!
Im DYING to see the FIRETEAM back out in the wild... with its new body! I hope we find out what body it is getting soon. Sick motor that
Look's like you have blest this race way lots of rc fan boy's racing great vidéo
The boss look shufft 🇬🇧🇫🇷✌️👍
A great watch as always thanks Kev 🙂 loved the jump over the car at the line 😂 👌
awesome drivin at the track bud
This was the best video ever.
I love Arc raceway but it is due for a major facelift no disrespect intended thanks for the excellent content keep up the fun work.
Was thinking the same they need an astroturf donation
Alex kowaliuk from America 🇺🇸 nice racing Kevin 🏁
Hello Kevin excellent bash session also you are a very lucky guy you have the coolest crowd of friends that live in your area every one who is on any of your videos are really nice bunch of people so what's UK thanks your friendly neighborhood Doorman william from NJ Forgettaboutit lol 😆
best channel by far
best feel good channel
Dude! You are the Tim Allen of RC !!!! Lmao! MORE POWER!!!!!
I've got the 100kg agfrc and 18t with a max5 and leopard motor.
I like how you ended the video with that classic fast and furious move! XD
As allways. Pure epicnessssssss
That was a great finish😊
that had to be a blast to rip with all those rigs at once, awesome video..
Jumping the stadium truck at the end was awesome
Kev! you should start a fundraiser to get arc raceway track redone, its looking a bit too rough for proper racing!
the last part looked epic
Loved the video as always! Technically your loosing wheel horsepower so to peak when you put on a bigger heavier gear, but I get what you mean 😂

@@dragon_skyshadow4484 bummer. was hoping their newest one would be dope even though it's only 2WD
@@harbinger26 yeah but for some reason theres always something wrong if it aint this it wil be that 🙈
@@dragon_skyshadow4484 what do you mean? just constant breakage?
that's so fast, i love it
Those servos are insane
The end is "totaly epic"!
i have a question...
do you know how i would fix my rc ford mustang mech e, because it wont turn on and the lights for the demo test works, but the car doesn't turn on at all.
Would you know how to fix that problem?
Epic kev on location 😂😂😂
hi kev i love your vids keep up the good work
i hope kev replies
Gràcies per el vídeo!!!
Salutacions des de Mallorca Bros!!!
Alobiuu Willy Boom!!!
Awesome stuff Kev, not sure it's a good idea stopping the fan like that though.
That jump at the end was the best part haha
Makes me wanna get back into it. Have a Losi XX buggy from 94 found in a box in storage forgot i had. Would need serious upgrades if i tried to get it "current"

Want to see your storage for your EBay stuff.
I am trying to make my rustler go faster so this kind of helps thanks
Normally servo horns that don't sit at a perfect 90 ° you just do a 180° turn of the horn and it should fit perfect
it may not be as durable or fast as an x maxx but i reckon it looks absolutly epic!
Hello from Poland ☺️
I do love 1/5 rc this was a great video. Looks like fun in the track with so many large scale. I’ve got my eyes on the new Losi DBXL 2.0 gas. It’s got the 32cc zenoah. Would be a lot of fun. I’ve got a 1/5 12S Losi 5B converted buggy also
Epic Jump at the End
thanks for putting the car in the video I'm going to get it😁
Look out Talbot, I just wanted the worlds ultimate rock climber.
I feel like I've done a fantastic job of not breaking my Traxxas 1974 Bronco.
The truth is I know it's not fit without your seal of approval.
You're easily the most advance RC Mechanic that ever lived.
