@350zvj lol. We hated the idea of it but now that we've had a chance to play with it...well...we're hooked. And we're open source guys here all the way. Traxxas knows what they got here no doubt.
@JSquaredDesigns Traxxas is pretty smart. If you are purchasing a $1100 R/C toy, a $70 used ipod touch cannot be an issue. Remember you can borrow one for the unlock as well. The TQi is sold without docking base and is backwards compatible with their current receivers so there's really no loss to the consumer. I'm an android guy myself and even I agree with their decision. To have a universal wireless connection the radio would have cost an extra $100 anyway. In time...
@Ricksta642 It should be available within the month from any traxxas dealer. You also have the option of trading up from an older traxxas radio for a cheaper price.
@TheCjcoon You must have a TQi w/ dock base, new telemetry Rx, and then you can buy the sensor's and mounts from a Traxxas dealer. I don't think all the sensors and mounts are available just yet.
@ArgonXenon4296 Well ill just say that Traxxas is not tracking down drivers license numbers before unlocking. I'm also not saying that owning a drivers license makes you responsible enough to drive this car.
@sickrustler101 You need to plug the esc and motor into a TQi radio with telemetry sensors and go through the factory unlock. If it was unlocked before being given to you you're good to go.
@TVfanfanatic Search XO-1 crash right here on youtube and you'll have your answer. Unfortunately there are people out there who think installing the 34t pinion is a good idea for driving around public streets. If they don't crash it they'll just burn out the motor/esc anyway.
@MegaRallycar Nope no telemetry on our 3R, just too old. This traxxas radio is actually better in almost every respect...we would still have to unlock to use the ESC on another radio. Traxxas has made sure of that.
I need help!!! I recently got an old nitro rc car to start. When I start it it it goes by it's self, I don't even have control over throttle and brake. So it goes by it's self! What should I do??????????!!!!
@JSquaredDesigns lol I agree with what you're saying but I can't say I'd like this radio as much if it had the cost of a universal (read: wireless) connection for smart phones attached to it. Now if it had universal connectivity with the same $100 price tag...hell ya! I think we'll eventually see android support be it in a year or by third party.
@remotecontrolhorror ah ha! Yeah it's quite the interesting topic. One thing is set in stone, you gotta unlock it if you want that ESC to be useful in the future. And that's one hell of a mamba monster. Better FETS, Cap bank, Mmmm.
@xboxluva22 I only have the esc and motor from the xo-1 how would i go about unlocking with just the esc.motor no controller?or is the esc motor unlocked already since its not in the car?please respond thanks
Can u buy this receiver and controller and use it with a traxxas slash, traxxas slash4x4, and traxxas t-maxx, if so what is the oldest iPod you can use with this controller.
hi nice video after email name you must tell where did you bought and then your drivers license number?what is this?i am from Greece i think here we don't have number.is it necessary to do this step?thank you
Whew! I know it's been a lot of XO-1 lately and were working on some other stuff as I type this, some more duratrax, axial, and even thunder tiger products! This rig is just so interesting though were trying to share what we can for ya! If you like the video, help us out by clicking the thumbs up button, and we promise, as soon as reasonably possible we will run this thing for ya'll.....got close this week, was just too wet out.
I dunno...maybe it's me showing my age...but although that iPhone/iPod interface is neat, I think the high speed bit is a joke. Clearly no one remember how much fun a Hornet with a silver can is.
@johneyrico you know what you have to do. Be on the lookout for when he grenades it and then offer $50 to take the heap-o-plastic off his hands. $500 profit easy.
Brandon love your video but disagree about your analysis.... For Traxxas to make android app a no brainer. Seems like huge oversight considering Android now owns most market share and continue to outpace Crapple (sorry couldn't resist)
I wonder how many XO-1's will get destroyed by people trying to hit 100 on narrow Residential Streets? It will make for some great RUclips vids, (similar to all those highly popular RC Plane crash vids) but in reality, they just look ridiculous trashing a $1,000 RC car.
@billzkustomz Lol there's always someone and something faster. I think Traxxas knew full well they wouldn't be selling it to someone such as yourself. Take it for what it is.

This video was from 2012, Traxxas Link App is available on Android 4.4 or higher.
@Ricksta642 It should be available within the month from any traxxas dealer. You also have the option of trading up from an older traxxas radio for a cheaper price.
@TheCjcoon You must have a TQi w/ dock base, new telemetry Rx, and then you can buy the sensor's and mounts from a Traxxas dealer. I don't think all the sensors and mounts are available just yet.
Can u tell me were I can get the sensors for that remote and can I link it to my receiver in my spampede 4x4 vlx?
@shadow122788 you bet. That's gotta be the one rig that we don't have to touch. 5 weeks straight track use. 0 days wrenching. Love it.
@ArgonXenon4296 Well ill just say that Traxxas is not tracking down drivers license numbers before unlocking. I'm also not saying that owning a drivers license makes you responsible enough to drive this car.
Thank you very much from Dubai
@glamisboy5630 Yes it is backwards compatible with current traxxas 2.4 receivers. 2nd gen ipod I believe.
@sickrustler101 You need to plug the esc and motor into a TQi radio with telemetry sensors and go through the factory unlock. If it was unlocked before being given to you you're good to go.
Wow, looked like about 11 pages to agree to. This car must have really made the Traxxas lawyers squirm.
you should do a review on the losi mini t
Thats it? You don't have to mess with the speed control? Well that sounds like a better option if you don't have an iDevice.
What about a new radio? Have you tried your Dx3r? And dont you guys have telemtry on that radio too? So if you put that in will you get 100mph.
@spirlalaek Well they arent doing background checks on the supplied info if that's what you're asking.
@curtisbeef A limited market item for sure. Traxxas knows this. It's just a springboard for the new technology.
@TVfanfanatic Search XO-1 crash right here on youtube and you'll have your answer. Unfortunately there are people out there who think installing the 34t pinion is a good idea for driving around public streets. If they don't crash it they'll just burn out the motor/esc anyway.

How do you unlock an x0-1 if you dont have the car? I brought it for my ARRMA KRATON??
@hames74 hey! we don't live in Canada, Brandon is very knowledgeable...
When will there be a running video, this vids been up for like 6months and no running vid
mine out of the box (unlocked and installed pinion gear) 70% battery charged it ran 144mph!
No u didn't
Nope
I need help!!! I recently got an old nitro rc car to start. When I start it it it goes by it's self, I don't even have control over throttle and brake. So it goes by it's self! What should I do??????????!!!!

@shadow122788 yup, at the track tonight!
will you accept a third party out of state bad check?
@remotecontrolhorror ah ha! Yeah it's quite the interesting topic. One thing is set in stone, you gotta unlock it if you want that ESC to be useful in the future. And that's one hell of a mamba monster. Better FETS, Cap bank, Mmmm.
I love ur vids
Can't find the serial number on xo-1, where is it exactly located?
no it is level 10, Im not stupid, It even says on the box. look it up on the Traxxas site.
@xboxluva22 I only have the esc and motor from the xo-1 how would i go about unlocking with just the esc.motor no controller?or is the esc motor unlocked already since its not in the car?please respond thanks
where is the outside high speed test video
?
Can u buy this receiver and controller and use it with a traxxas slash, traxxas slash4x4, and traxxas t-maxx, if so what is the oldest iPod you can use with this controller.
Does it matter if the iPhone is yours could it be a family members as they said they will once I've received the car and batteries with lipo charger
@johneyrico This is why traxxas put the lock on it in the first place. Sometimes even the parents are smart enough...
Or do you know what model iPhone or iPod it has to be as I could buy one or two
if I have the newer TQi system will it work with Samsung
And drivers license do you know we're to purchase one as I currently do this pro but private on private land so please give all info I'm subscribing
Thanks for posting this. TQi... The i stands for, "I need an ios device."
@MrTRISTANCOOL If you happen to put in a random number it will still work.
good video really helped
there's a reason it says "skill level 10 EXPERTS ONLY"
thanks for the help
Can you just use a friend's iphone to unlock it and then go 100 mph without having it docked in?
@rcnightmare I have, but i need stuff to review, or post on my channel... My parents wont buy anthing for it :(
@rcknightmare is the tqi included?
hi nice video after email name you must tell where did you bought and then your drivers license number?what is this?i am from Greece i think here we don't have number.is it necessary to do this step?thank you

How can i work for RCNightmare? I dont want the XO-1 But like buggies and trucks, i wanna make reviews! :P
I dunno...maybe it's me showing my age...but although that iPhone/iPod interface is neat, I think the high speed bit is a joke. Clearly no one remember how much fun a Hornet with a silver can is.
Would a learners permit work to unlock it?
@lawnmowerdude Kind of puttin the horse before the cart arent you?
can you use an ipad instead of an ipod
Got the app, now all I need is the car.
The Slash on the shelf magically turned 45 degrees.. 0:20 vs 5:53
:D
nice car and everything, but not sure if its worth the $ 1100 from bestbuy
You said in your video that u have to put your driver license. Well I'm 13 what can i do i also have the DX3 C from spectrum?
Thx for you good video :)
are you saying it's locked to 50 mph or 15 mph?
Can u use that app with ourther traxxes rc

@mrpspnerd Sell it. Get an electric R/C car. Or take it to local hobby shop to have it serviced.
And imma pro and upgrading to this vehicle for the reason its Gunna hit that speed
Hi,
Does the DL has to a US one? What if I don't have a US driving license?
Thx!
ID card
@73Shakes Oh, we will...
@dawhitedirtbiker Nah just not worth it with the current outdoor conditions. We're making sure she'll be ready when mother nature is though...
you can but the car will not be able to drive 100 mph with the smalle pinion gear
@bubby12397 How much for old equipment =]

@mayer298 I was the person to make it
Just Ditch the Radio and Receiver, It'll do 100 plus w/a Spektrum DX3s
why do you have to give a drivers license number?
whats the link app cause i got one
I havent seen any1 reach the 100mph mark yet.Has any1 done it yet?
@johneyrico you know what you have to do. Be on the lookout for when he grenades it and then offer $50 to take the heap-o-plastic off his hands. $500 profit easy.
@bubby12397 dang man that sucks. Time for a new project?
i was the -1 person to watch this
how much does this car cost?
@vashon100 You got that right!
Brandon love your video but disagree about your analysis.... For Traxxas to make android app a no brainer. Seems like huge oversight considering Android now owns most market share and continue to outpace Crapple (sorry couldn't resist)
OK dude we get it its our responsibility
wit what? I'm 18 years old just bought an iPod for this car and i need to give a drivers license number? I DON'T HAVE A DRIVERS LICENSE NUMBER!!!

Wait...is it our responsibility?
I wonder how many XO-1's will get destroyed by people trying to hit 100 on narrow Residential Streets? It will make for some great RUclips vids, (similar to all those highly popular RC Plane crash vids) but in reality, they just look ridiculous trashing a $1,000 RC car.
@rcnightmare yeah he's a rich lil snob and the pairents are clueless (im sure he's asken for an ipod now)
@gtawesom3 ah but you technically don't really..
@billzkustomz Lol there's always someone and something faster. I think Traxxas knew full well they wouldn't be selling it to someone such as yourself. Take it for what it is.
i was the 35 person to watch this
are you canadian?
@lawnmowerdude Nice...
@xboxluva22 A real one? I don't think traxxas is tracking these down.
@T4nm4y gotta earn that cash!
@rcnightmare Dang I missed the hater comment. They make me stronger =]
