Hey there Matt! Very Well done review brother and very well executed. Wicked little truck from Rlaarlo here in my opinion. Yes at first a bit disappointed to find out it’s not a true 1/10 scale, as I found out at the China rc expo about a month ago that it was really a 1/12 scale. I’m over it now LoL! The truck seems to run amazingly, with blazing but controllable speed and rock solid handling. Who wants an over powered rc that constantly flips on its back anyway? Not me. This has beautiful air control and seemed to handle anything you were throwing at it. Rlaarlo, if your reading Matt’s comments, this thing is really well done. It seemed like range was not an issue either! Man , I want one… really bad! 🤗👊🏼😝✌🏼
I gotta agree it lands pretty damn nice for a small car! and maybe the shocktowers issue can be fixed by droop screws? Definitely psyched on this release, i own a D12 and i need a more durable replacement. Thats not 600 dollars lmao
What a ripper! Shame it’s not bigger though, they’ve missed out on an opportunity to take on some of the big boys. Top video as well dude. Fast paced and all the action 👌
I'm still waiting on some of these companies like Raarlo and MJX to come with a 1/10th scale or even 1/9th-1/8th would be great to see what they could do. I bet it has to do with shipping costs and size and weight along with total price they can realistically charge.
Hi Matthew. Thanks for the great review. I did receive mine just last week but your review was the first one I watched. One thing I noticed at 9:20 into the clip is the "self-righting" feature. Is that a pre-programmed button or did you have to do that manually by using the trigger? Cheers.
Yessss what a beast! For the price I think it’s great. Rlaarlo are innovating with these new designs and not just rebranding which is what we see a lot of cheaper Chinese companies doing. Great that you got this on early man it’s an impressive truck for sure. Also glad you are in the GPS Track, Start, Read gang with me hahaha love that! I love it when people stay strong and true to themselves and never let other peoples arrogance/opinions influence their decisions. Top man Mr Simm 20k is coming up man and you deserve it massively. #legend #startstopread
I did really have fun and it was a beast, but if you plan to bash it hard like I did, definitely take some extra screws haha 😄 Nah, I'm at 18m subs dude, didn't you see the sub animation 😂 jk
@@Hungrybird474 yes. A week ago tomorrow. I've only ran 2 packs through it so far. I haven't tried to turn the gyro on. It didn't come activated. Looks pretty simple from the videos I watched. I haven't even installed the wheelie bar but it does have plenty of power for wheelies. Also haven't checked for loose screws but nothing fell off so far. Everyone who's seen it has been impressed with how sturdy it's built and surprised by how heavy it is. The body is thin and I somehow dented the tailgate but it didn't make a hole completely through. The suspension is great and tuned perfectly it just soaks up bumps and landings without drama. The brakes are very strong and I've front flipped several times just slowing down. It does traction roll pretty easy in grass but slides well on other surfaces. I think it's a good little truck and I do like it. The radio has lots of buttons that I haven't bothered to look up what they do. I cannot find a self righting button but I swear I saw that as a feature but it can be done manually if need to. I honestly can't say I like it more than my Gorgon for my favorite small cheap truck yet. The Gorgon is 3s brushless 4000kv 100amp Spektrum stuff with a Dumbo. It's the $139 blue one and by catching sales cost about $250 to build including the truck cost. I haven't heard anyone who owns either truck regret buying them.
When you added the esc from the sketer, did you also switch to the motor from the sketer, or were you just running the stock motor? I only ask because i have a complete set of electronics from a sketer and this looks like a match made in heaven.
I used the stock motor. The skateboard I think is a 1/8 motor no? I'll have to check lol, if it fits, that would be a great pair with the roller model!
Wow impressive little unit looks great ran outstanding floats through the air incredibly well can't believe how fast it was lively little ripper great video Matty 👊
Pretty dang cool, I really wish they would've made it a true 1/10 scale though... I think it would've been much better but it looks like it rips and jumps nice so that's what counts at the end of the day....
As always, great video Matty! Your vid's are some of the best on RUclips and I really enjoy them. I have an AMD12 and found out the hard way that the rear dog bones are crap. They bend easily and the pins come loose and damage the cups. After ordering new ones and replacing hinge pins that the hex had been stripped during manufacture, I doubt I will invest in this brand again. Hopefully this new car will hold up because my AMD12 had a very short life, sadly.
I really appreciate that thanks dude! 😊 I haven't tested the D12 unfortunately, have you tried to fit any other brands? Maybe that could fix the issue.
Thank you for actually driving it, bashing it, changing gearing and esc all in the same video. I was afraid they would unboxing, then driving in another video. Down the road different gearing
Question, I have the Spektrum S2200 charger and the Supulse B3 V2 10W charger. Will I be able to charge the LIPO battery that comes with this OMNI Terminator truck?
I just got my shipping confirmation, mine is being shipped directly from China DHL got my tracking # today, it should be delivered in a week or so for me
Is the dog bone or cvd’s thick on there or are they skinny ? I had a own a rlaarlo 1/14 brushless and the cvd were so skinny they break on light impacts
I have arranged for an engineer to replace the screws of the bracket with higher strength, without threads in the middle to enhance thickness and strength! Thank you very much for testing!
Yeah that is a deferent weak point eh' I've also noticed a couple of other weak points in reviews 1 is the rear skid falling off the other being the centre diff leaking because the srcrews weren't tight enough!!!! I hope Rlaarlo sort the issues before production
@@EdisonRCWorkshop I've ordered a carbon fiber one anyway just hoping they put some better shock mounting screws in the box if not on the car? I'll be checking the centre diff to make sure it's not leaking also!!!! Overall it seems like a great little car!!!!🙂
This looks perfect. I've been wanting a smallish truck to keep in the vehicle full time for times of emergency bashing. I've started to order a 14th scale MJX half a dozen times lately but been waiting to see this first.
The angle of the drive shaft with the front diff is inefficient and will cause premature wear. It also means the torque to the front vs back is different.
Man this thing lands nice on those high speed jumps, even the slower higher drops it lands really well! Probably also the driver but man it seems like a fun truck! I suspect, looking at the way the shock towers bent, that probably the droop screws can help not wrecking the shock towers?
@MatthewSimm maybe! 🤷♂️ It's just that one sheared off landing upside down (i think?) which may just be a separate thing. But the 'bent down' shock mounts may be prevented by limiting the arm extension through those droop screws! (If they're not caused by upside down landings! 😆) Anyway you bashed it real good. That's what we were all hoping for. Awesome review! 👌
What is the actual size of the stock battery? I was going to try and find a 3000mah the same size so I wouldn’t have to move the esc. Their website doesn’t show or even offer the stock battery
Unfortunately I haven't used their website. Being a youtuber I don't know if that would change my experience, I think it's best to look at other people's experiences from groups like on Facebook. Sorry I couldn't help 🤔
@@MatthewSimm The crazy thing is i have tried yours and multiple other links from streamers and have not found it online . Amazon lists the normal version but not the Carbon one. and i have tried Google?
Good review Matthew. I was looking at one of these myself. I have a 917 and a 787. Rlaarlo are really good value for the money. But always strip them down as they tend to arrive with little shock oil and a few other build issues that will not take you long to sort.
That's good information for people buying! Always check your rc cars haha I personally just test them how they come and leave the results to their QC team haha 😄
Hey Matthew! Great video, thanks so much! One question: could you put the Terminator on a scale and write here its weight (without battery)? Weight is always a very good indicator of the 'actual' size.
You can't even buy these yet! Kinda puts me off of the company when you see them being reviewed before you can even buy them. Good review but you should a waited till Friday February 16th when presale starts.
I can understand the frustration but because shipping times are different for everyone, some of us will recieve them earlier and to be transparent with you, the earlier I can get a video out, the better it is for views for my channel etc.. 😀
@@MatthewSimm I didn't know presale started at different times in other countries. It's scheduled for the 16th here in the states. Thanks for being transparent.👍
Cool video!! Im trying to get into the hobbie but just having issues deciding what to purchase since theres so much out there. What would you recommend me to start of with thanks????
Incredible video! After charging my battery for the second drive the esc + power button is blinking red and it's no longer making connection with the remote. Any ideas on what could be causing this and how to resolve it?
Hi Matthew how are you keeping great video once again mate I've just ordered mine but I have the roller one coming. Do you think a arrma Spektrum firma motor and esc would be OK 👍 😊
Awesome review bud... man I wish traxxas or arrma put little flags and spare gaskets in their rtr kits. I mean you pay enough for them lol but you sold me on this truck I want one now
I wish it was a true 1/10 scale I was 100% get it right now it's on sale I think for 249.99. The design of the truck looks well built and looks like it can take a beating
Great review Matt! I won the 6 piece carbon fiber accessory prize during their event and wasn’t sure if I would be buying this or not because I have such a long wish list. After watching your video I definitely plan on it once I have the money!
I'm so gutted about its size, why call it a 1/10? it clearly isn't in fact its closer to a 1/14 than 1/10 I really was looking forward to this truck, it just my personal preference, I only like 1/10 and bigger oh and nice video/review
Dude!!! What is that electric driver kit. Looks perfect for rc. I want one! Link please 🙏 great review, I have been waiting for this. Not sure if I’m getting this or a 1:8ty h buggy, but I’m glad to see what Rlaarlo are doing. Arrma and Traxas have had it to easy for to long. Looking at the Rlaarlo buggies if they made a 1:8 at £350 I would be all over it. It’s a subscribe from me.
I'm just testing atm, but I'd say this is okay for smaller 1/14, 1/16 and smaller cars etc.. it's not very powerful. I'm currently looking for the perfect electric screwdriver haha. sequremall.com/products/electric-screwdriver?ref=MATTHEWSIMM&variant=43267637248188
@@MatthewSimm I imagined not to powerful, but in small scale you would donintial losen by hand anyway so not to strip, this just looks like it take the work out of it. Stick a couple of small hand drivers and wheel hex in the bag and you have a great field kit.
Haha, nah, I'm not under any kind of NDA with Rlaarlo. Some will just get it earlier due to shipping times, maybe because I'm in Australia and that's closer to China, haha 😄
Hey matt, could you tell me the battery size please, ive just ordered the metal version but wanna get some better 3s shortie packs Cheers Im hoping the zeee 3s 2200 mah 50c packs will fit
It's not just the motor you'll have to buy, though. You also have to buy the motor mount of the carbon version if you want to fit a bigger can into the regular rtr.
Its a nice looking truck for sure, not sure Im going to bother getting one now though. Bit disappointed in how small it is for a supposidly 1/10, more 1/12 scale. Also not close to 80kph on 3s.
That is quite the weapon on 3s...Insane on 4s. Think the carbon eddition with the 540 size motor is the one to get for me. Great air control and for the size handles rather well... Broken screws...Meh..easy fix. Epic review Matty!!
Electric motors are (mostly) limited by heat and rpm. Is 4s okay? Sure, as long as it's cool enough, could you run it on 6s? Yeah but probably not long before it over heats lol. I'd suggest just using its recommended voltage unless you know what you're doing 😀
@@steveblackbird do you have a recommendation for a budget 4s rated esc for this car's setup? and a cheap fan/heat sink for the motor? im new to customizing RTR.
Thank you for this video! Ive been waiting for a review of this truck! It looks awesome for sure, but its not blowing away the other trucks I'm considering, so I still have a tough decisionm. Should I go for the cheaper Haiboxing 2997a or go bigger with the Maverick Quantum 2 which is around the same price as the Omni. Tough to decide. Omni looks amazing, though
Be prepared to spend a lot more in repairs with the Quantum. From the looks I like all the cars from that series, but go watch a few vids, apparently their parts are breaking easily.
@@philote09 I've heard that with the old model. The vids I've seen on the Quantum 2 seem to say it's very durable. Have you heard differently about the new one?
That's a tough decision dude! 😳 unfortunately I do not have an experience with the Maverick. Hpi will have better parts support, but I cannot attest to its durability.
Nice video I enjoyed this! The car looks awesome also going to have to get myself one!
Thank you 😊 I look foward to your video if you're planning one!
Don't forget that the carbon fiber version comes with a gyroscope function!
Can't wait for that!

Awesome review bud... man I wish traxxas or arrma put little flags and spare gaskets in their rtr kits. I mean you pay enough for them lol but you sold me on this truck I want one now
That would be nice man! Accessories definitely help the unboxing experience 😀
Can u make a video regarding the control and it functions ,would be nice
What's a better buy in your opinipm this aluminum version or the hosim x07?
I wish it was a true 1/10 scale I was 100% get it right now it's on sale I think for 249.99. The design of the truck looks well built and looks like it can take a beating
Good see matthew back
Thanks 😊
Please can you give to me the measures of the battery tray or the 3s stock lipo? Thanks
Great review Matt! I won the 6 piece carbon fiber accessory prize during their event and wasn’t sure if I would be buying this or not because I have such a long wish list. After watching your video I definitely plan on it once I have the money!
Oh wow congratulations dude!
@@MatthewSimm thanks man! I’m jealous you already have yours lol such a fun looking truck!
Hi Matt, can you tell me what the gear was you upgraded to ? And also how does the self righting work ?? Thanks !
It looks like 3s power is enough for this cool little truck.
I totally agree! 4s is fun though haha 😄
Does it come with charger?
The esc does not stay in place after a few flips
I'm so gutted about its size, why call it a 1/10? it clearly isn't in fact its closer to a 1/14 than 1/10
I really was looking forward to this truck, it just my personal preference, I only like 1/10 and bigger
oh and nice video/review
I understand dude! If it's 1/10th scale you're looking for, this probably won't be it but it's definitely fun haha 😆 thanks for watching bro!!
Dude!!! What is that electric driver kit. Looks perfect for rc. I want one! Link please 🙏 great review, I have been waiting for this. Not sure if I’m getting this or a 1:8ty h buggy, but I’m glad to see what Rlaarlo are doing. Arrma and Traxas have had it to easy for to long. Looking at the Rlaarlo buggies if they made a 1:8 at £350 I would be all over it. It’s a subscribe from me.
I'm just testing atm, but I'd say this is okay for smaller 1/14, 1/16 and smaller cars etc.. it's not very powerful.
I'm currently looking for the perfect electric screwdriver haha.

@@MatthewSimm I imagined not to powerful, but in small scale you would donintial losen by hand anyway so not to strip, this just looks like it take the work out of it. Stick a couple of small hand drivers and wheel hex in the bag and you have a great field kit.
@@MatthewSimm ps looks like you were first on with the terminator. Have you done a naughty lol, thought release was 18th
Haha, nah, I'm not under any kind of NDA with Rlaarlo. Some will just get it earlier due to shipping times, maybe because I'm in Australia and that's closer to China, haha 😄
@@MatthewSimmwell I chucked the video on the FB group. I’m sure you will get some more views from it
Hey matt, could you tell me the battery size please, ive just ordered the metal version but wanna get some better 3s shortie packs
Cheers
Im hoping the zeee 3s 2200 mah 50c packs will fit
I know this is probably a funny question but could I run a li-lion battery in the Rlaarlo Terminator?
Love that black version! Is that stock ESC programmable?
I'm not sure sorry dude!
@@MatthewSimm it would help with that insane brake force if you could tune that way down
I would like to see other manufacturers start adding some custom under bodies like the terminator
Do you think the carbon fiber one would be better for bashing over a field or the aluminium one
Hey sir could you please tell me the name of that electric screwdriver you used in this video? Thanks hope to hear back from you soon!!
Do you think the extra $50 for the carbon version is worth it over the regular rtr?
I do, mainly for the bigger motor and steel gears, but you could also buy a bigger motor for less than $50. I guess it's up to the individual 🤔
It's not just the motor you'll have to buy, though. You also have to buy the motor mount of the carbon version if you want to fit a bigger can into the regular rtr.
Oh right, I was not aware of this, thanks!
Its a nice looking truck for sure, not sure Im going to bother getting one now though. Bit disappointed in how small it is for a supposidly 1/10, more 1/12 scale. Also not close to 80kph on 3s.
Hopefully they release something bigger in the future! But this is a good start 👌
Could you make a video of how a longer and larger battery is mounted than the? one the car comes with
That's a little beast mate 👍🦘😂😂
Definitely dude haha 😄
What speeds does the car get with the 3S battery?
It's in the video dude 😀 2s, 3s and a 4s speed run 🏃♂️
Admite 4s?
Worth the car?
You can see the telemetry, speed on the controller?
Be good to see a head to head between this and the Rival MT10, love the 1/8th style motor mount all cars should use this
I do need to buy a mt10 one day haha 😄
@@MatthewSimmthe brushed version is on sale for $179 right now. I ordered one and a 10BL combo for it today.
MT10 is on sale? Where?
@@boduke9428 if you get this let me know where the sale is!
@@richardulrich9001 Tower Hobbies. The MT10 and SC10 brushed models are both $179 and both were still in stock a few hours ago.
I just started getting into the hobby with my son and this is what I went with I enjoy it a lot! It rips!
But rlaarlo advertises that it is 4s capable on the stock esc they ship with the 3650 version. I was hoping to see that claim actually tested.
Hiho, what will be the price for?
$249 USD I believe 😀
Mine is running a 2X 3S 2200mah batterys setup
Have you got a link for that ESC upgrade bro? Cheers!
That is quite the weapon on 3s...Insane on 4s. Think the carbon eddition with the 540 size motor is the one to get for me.
Great air control and for the size handles rather well... Broken screws...Meh..easy fix.
Epic review Matty!!
the motor is rated for 4s?
@@hby7768 KV rating says yes. Stock esc is a no for 4s. Always watch temps though.
Thanks a million dude! 😊 a great little rc indeed!
Electric motors are (mostly) limited by heat and rpm. Is 4s okay? Sure, as long as it's cool enough, could you run it on 6s? Yeah but probably not long before it over heats lol. I'd suggest just using its recommended voltage unless you know what you're doing 😀
@@steveblackbird do you have a recommendation for a budget 4s rated esc for this car's setup? and a cheap fan/heat sink for the motor? im new to customizing RTR.
Thank you for this video! Ive been waiting for a review of this truck! It looks awesome for sure, but its not blowing away the other trucks I'm considering, so I still have a tough decisionm. Should I go for the cheaper Haiboxing 2997a or go bigger with the Maverick Quantum 2 which is around the same price as the Omni. Tough to decide. Omni looks amazing, though
Be prepared to spend a lot more in repairs with the Quantum. From the looks I like all the cars from that series, but go watch a few vids, apparently their parts are breaking easily.
@@philote09 I've heard that with the old model. The vids I've seen on the Quantum 2 seem to say it's very durable. Have you heard differently about the new one?
That's a tough decision dude! 😳 unfortunately I do not have an experience with the Maverick. Hpi will have better parts support, but I cannot attest to its durability.
Thank you for your thoughts
@@richardulrich9001 I'm late, yes... No, I guess my information related to the old model, too.
Love your videos bro...another good one. Thanks
Glad you like them!
