I have one of these. So far I've broken the battery tray twice, bent the chassis brace twice. So upgraded the chassis brace with an ADU unit. Solved that problem. Ran into a toe issue. Too much toe in. Stock links are non adjustable. So installed Arrma Typhon toe links. Solved that problem. Bent the ackerman arm again. So upgraded the ackerman to a Team Corally 7075 version. But bent that again. Bent the front knuckle toe ends. I don't have these issues with my Typhon. I'm not sure why the front steering tends to bend everything so much. But I will say no diff failures. No cv and or axle failures. No shock tower bends. No shock stand off failures. Had one front arm failure. But that was my fault. Overall I prefer the Asuga. I've beat the crap out of the Asuga. And I did bend the chassis. But while driving it you couldn't notice. It just kept going. I'm currently upgrading the chassis to that one.
Like #200! Kicking out an ex car of a BMX track is just silly especially if no one is around. Maybe if it was a big 1/5 scale car then I could understand people say it would damage the track. Hopefully you will be able to go back 👍
Looks like an awesome buggy. I want one but not in a huge rush since I already have the TLR, Asuga, and Syncro4. Plus, I love the Asuga so much I think I prefer the "XL" buggies to the normal ones now.
We need more dedicated RC tracks . I’m going to talk to my local officials and tell them . They ll say kids will break bones . They ll do it anyways in the middle of the street with the cars if they don’t have a place for RC cars and bmx
Awesome Run buddy and love the look on the spark , that combo thats in the buggy is a real power house for sure . Shame that you got asked to leave , you have been going there for ages . Have they asked you to not come back ? Stay awesome dude and keep up the awesome work . Chris :)
Great review as always. Opening with a detailed spec evaluation and then a test drive. I like it... I want one. I haven't owned a RC car since I was about 15 in the 1980s when I had a pbr mini mustang with the 2 speed clutched gearbox! No lipos in sight those days, nicads were as good as it got!!
That's a dk move man thr was no one.thr I mean it would be a problem if thr was BMXers I wouldn't do any rc but cmon bro what a cupcake then Again we do love among them cupcakes
Nice vid Razor! TC is doing some nice stuff indeed. I'm surprised you got kicked out of there.. you've made soo many vids there over the years!! So, you'll be back there tomorrow, right? I know I would. I understand rules are rules, no point in arguing with a fellow who's just doing his job. Cheers Bud!😎👍
Why would they ask you to leave when there's no one else there and a little RC buggy ain't going to do any damage that a 200 pound guy on a bmx /mountain bike would do.. Love the vids mate..
Who was that? The park owner? The BMX park owner? A park police? If it's none of them, then that Ken can kiss where the sun don't shine. Here in Texas, I've only gotten into arguments a couple of times with Kens trying to tell me that I had to leave the park. Park police have NEVER said anything to me. They just wave. Why would he kick you out when there was NO ONE there? It's not like you are causing damage with a little RC. Some people people are just MISERABLE. Anyways, nice run. I love my Syncro 4 other the Quickrun system and Mojave tires. I've been beating it up and I haven't broken anything yet, except the stock ESC and a bit of damage to the body. That's why I prefer to use ramps away from everyone.
City park employee. Most of the damage at this BMX park is caused by RC drivers who can't drive and smash their cars into everything, including the jumps. I think that guy has to fix them every month. If you watch my videos through the years, they keep having to redo the jumps because they get beat to hell. For sure there is way damage caused by RC cars, you can tell by how much dirt is kicked up everywhere as opposed to a biker who hardly causes any dust.
@@RazorRC Fair enough. Like I mentioned before, I'm just a basher, so big ramps, small ramps away from everyone is my thing 👍. You should go more often to the top of those hills where there's no one there 👍
next time ask them for the policy/rules stating no rc cars allowed ( if it is a public park funded by the people that pay into taxes you have every right to be there ) ......i had a similar situation and i challenged the head park ranger ( nyc ) to show me their policy/rules ........their walk of shame was golden and a win
That's such a shame... yeah, whether it's a legal prohibition or just a policy, in the UK at least, there needs to be a sign broadly stating no RCs on the track for them to kick you out. Otherwise, the only arguments they can make are safety concerns over others also using the track and noise pollution. But still... there was nobody else there and you were causing no harm or damage 🤷♂️🤦
@@RazorRC An RC is not a motorized vehicle, it's a motorized toy/model. For example, from my states law. - "Vehicle" means a device capable of being moved upon a public highway and in, upon, or by which any persons or property is or may be transported or drawn upon a public highway.
The wires linking the esc and the motor ran across the centre brace do you have to unwired every time you wana reach something? Looks a little messy is there no way they make it look pretty?
That’s a more appropriate place for RC’s I’ve seen RC’s ripping around baseball infields & I’m just thinking someone is going to be mad because the infields have to be maintained but so do dirt bmx jumps I know that those particular type of jumps with the hard packed dirt are not easy to make or maintain it’s not a matter of there’s no one using it it a maintenance issue. I’ve never had negative comments about crawlers but it seems like the faster bashers is what people will make a negative comment. I had someone complain I was making dust & getting their car dirty & it was mostly in a paved area in a park & not a lot of people out. I’m extremely picky now about where I bash because I’m just trying to enjoy being out with the RC’s that’s why we have them. 👍
Where is this? Looks like a fun place to play. Have you tried the Pleasanton BMX park? Next time you go out there, take a shovel and a garden sprayer. Tell them you're doing maintenance.
That's answers why the mjx review wasn't done there. Sad because that location was ideal and I enjoyed watching what these cars are capable of. I get its not for rc cars , but u were always respectful and never have I seen u cause damage. Not certain a 10lb rc could cause noticeable wear on a track like that anyhow
Wow, I really like this rig, especially in a roller. Disappointed Arrma are dropping rollers. Not sure if that is completely true, but yea, lame if so. The one thing that looks a little weird to me personally is the uber wide body. I'm sure I could learn to dig it. Sorry about the track expulsion, you've done so many videos there. Hopefully it is not permanent.
Would be really sad if you're aren't allowed to come back to the track at all. To prevent something like this i ask the owners of the properties i drive on for allowance in advance. So no other has the authority to kick me out.
Yeah I’ve gotten kicked out of some BMX park out by my buddies old place near Livermore, we weren’t bothering anyone just off in some corner of the park near where it’s actually designated for RC (the RC area was overgrown and unusable for our SC Trucks) some random tweeker looking dude on a mountain bike was being a 🍆 we kept moving but he intentionally kept riding in the area we were in even after we moved to the separate small track the guy acted like he owned the place some words were said and a 3rd party had called PD we didn’t want any trouble and just left before PD showed
Wait…there wasn’t anyone else in the park was there?? I’m dealing with my new fpv hobby pissing everyone off and I didn’t anticipate it when I got into it. Someone flipped on me today for flying a closed elementary school…no one around. People seem to be ready and willing to get in other peoples business and be a Karen/Kevin real quick these days! Sucks..
Sweet run. Being an ex-BMX racer, I really can't see how an RC could destroy a track more than a bike with a 100+lb person. You must have been in the way of that massive crowed of people around you.🙄
It's a liability issue. If 1 person can play, everyone can play? Not fair, I agree, just imagine a youngster taking a 6S ebuggy to their leg, body or worse. Unrelated but, I've witnessed a teenager completely destroy an RC club track built at our county fairgrounds with a pit bike in a few minutes.
Like the look in general, chassis layout etc… but I just can’t get behind that hectic paint scheme. Looks like my 3 year old’s toy cars form the dollar store. But that’s an industry/personal subjective issue
@@RazorRC im not sure how its operated at that bike track but the RC club i was with about 10 years ago spent lots of time and money on our track and on the days we weren't racing it was open to the public, not by our choice especially when bmx bikes would ride on it when it was wet, an RC car dose alot less damage than a bike
I agree with all the comments, that guy was an ass. No one around and your doing no harm, yet he booted you. RC guys seems to be chill af and just want to drive their cars. RC is not a crime...lol
Where I live in Missouri, there isn’t a single bmx track or hell even just a bike path that doesn’t have a No RC’s Allowed sign posted at the entrance of it. So no fun allowed in Missouri either. At least Cali has better weather and nicer views.
Yeah I know of a county and city in that county in NorCal where the municipal code prohibits use of RC model cars in parks...and all the rules don't have to be posted on a sign. If it is in the code they can enforce it.
You were not breaking the law. Ive been asked to leave places where I know darn well I can be there. Stand your ground next time.
If there is nobody around on a bmx then why are they bottering you to leave. Such a Karen move🥱
@joseywilds3133Right, that's taxes dollars in an argument

Yep, NEVER take their word for it.
There's a sign at the entrance that says "No motorized vehicles". I just ignore it because I can't read.

15:04 WHAT?………
I have a question, who owns the track? That’s the city for its citizens? Or it’s owned by a private club?
Anybody compare these team corally 1/8 buggys to the caster racing buggys?
They look super similar to me.

Go talk to a government official over their head and tell them how you felt wronged doing the right thing being responsible 👍. Good luck man .

Not nearly as damaging as when people ride their bikes on open RC tracks and cut deep grooves into the lips.
Yeah that’s not good either!
is that the last video from this location then?
Nah... but I'll be filming in other locations for a while.

I have not seen a bike there. did he even explained why? i have had to deal with Karen's before. but i dont go away,but come back another day.
I go during school hours, no kids are around that way.
its a glorified radix6 thats why i got one😁
Its a public area. I wouldnt have left.
I agree with all the comments, that guy was an ass. No one around and your doing no harm, yet he booted you. RC guys seems to be chill af and just want to drive their cars. RC is not a crime...lol
Was that an actual park person?
Yes
We aren't allowed RCs on our BMX tracks. There are usually signs stating this. Kinda sux but I get it .
Yeah, this is not particular to where I live.
No fun allowed in California. All tracks must sit open and unused unless by private invitation.
This isn't a CA thing, this is true of most BMX parks in the country.
Where I live in Missouri, there isn’t a single bmx track or hell even just a bike path that doesn’t have a No RC’s Allowed sign posted at the entrance of it.
So no fun allowed in Missouri either. At least Cali has better weather and nicer views.
Those tires aren't really getting it done in the air, maybe try some dboots? 🤓
"bmx" and r/c can't share space ? I'm sorry that happened to you.. and thats aggravating af
It's all good, doesn't really bother me, there are lots of good places around I can run my RC's.
sucks when you get kicked out
Lol most kids now are to lazy to ride bmx bikes, they are rc tracks now!!
I go during school hours, no kids are around that way.
@@RazorRC them jumps look too big for bmx you would die jumping them on a bike
Yea really, I'd love to see a bicycle go off some of those ramps there would be a trauma center with a rash of customers.
I live in Fresno county and the jumps are way too extreme also, are the bmx pro? Riders... no .. crazy jumps break my rcs lol
Can't drive rc cars at the local BMX track here, pretty lame
Unreal jerk move, I wouldn't have moved an inch, if you can rip around on bikes that little buggy isn't hurting that precious dirt. Talk to the ✋
Dude you can run a rc there rc car is not a motorized vehicle by law
bmx bike's do more damage to the tracks compared to any rc car kinda lame they complain about rc cars
