I just ordered mine the carbon brushless AK 917. I thought about waiting for the AK 787 to be sold on Amazon, but didn't think it would be worth the wait. I got mine for $339, bet the AK 787 carbon is near $500. I saw a geared up version AK 917 doing 181 MPH, so the AK 787 has big shoes to fill. Great tutorial video friend, I would stand on my truck as well, if anything moving that fast hit you ... 😇
Great runs Brother! I didn’t get one, but I agree 100% with your sentiments about Rlaarlo, also very impressed with your speed run brother! Great video!👊🏼💯😎✨✌🏻
Seemed like a long enough runway until you put the 4S in there. That thing is a screamer! I just found you tonight, as I recently just grabbed a Rlaarlo AM-D12, it's my first RC since my Tamiya Grasshopper I had in the late 80's 🤣 I'm up in Turners Falls, Ma and looking for good places to run it, and my future RC's...yes there will be more!
Welcome! The AM-D12 is super fun! RC Madness in Enfield CT and RC Xcitement in Fitchburg are the closest tracks I think. Check out some local skateparks too!
@@413RC Yeah there is a skate park in town, went down yesterday after dinner and there were too many skaters. It just now occurred to me that mornings are likely the best time to hit it.
very cool how it tracks in a straight line... at such high speed. these look like old style Porsche 917 race cars..circa 1969 my oldie tamiya stuff tended to veer off left or right after 20yds.. max speed 26mph..lol and then needing some more aluminium suspension parts..... fun vid..more please.. N x
This RC IS modeled after the Late 60's 24 hour LeMans winner Porsche 917, that's why they put the spare tire their. It was required during the race in that era. lol 😂
Hey man just wanted to tell you keep grinding enjoy everytime i see a notification from 413rc 🎉 as a springfield native im actually going thru the collection and parting ways with some awesome rc vehicles. Would love to have them go to someone who could keep the hobby alive. I have a senton 3s and a big rock 3s both in boxes. Used maybe 3 times a piece. Willing to let them go to u for $150 a piece.
Yes I think it has potential with some tuning. diffs seem loose, tires are not very grippy. it'll also need a programmable ESC as the brakes are all or nothing and cant be adjusted. Id recommend the roller option
4S with stock gearing should be well over 100MPH. You have serious problems with your ESC or batteries/connections or excess friction in the drivetrain. Compared to many other 4s videos on RUclips.
@@413RC Wrong- some guys get well over 86 to 100 mph or more on 4s with stock gearing. A guy just posted 98mph with 2s and stock gearing. You can search YT yourself to find them. You should check your batteries and connectors as a start. Anyway, have fun.
@@warriordugan7236 Rlaarlo provides multiple gears with the vehicle. What he means by stock gearing is the gears installed when it comes in the box 👍.

Thanks! I ordered another one which will hopefully be arriving soon

413!!! that's a steal for the Arrma 3S vehicles! dont tempt me too much! lol shoot me a pm on instagram or facebook if possible. thanks for watching!
Awesome video
Thanks! Hoping to hit triple digits soon
Not messing around!!! Never driven it before and sent it!
Gotta try it right out of the box!!!
Yes! What's that weird sound?? My red AK 917 is making the exact same noise.. could it be the rear differential??
1st Good run cant wait for mine CF RTR and a CF roller for parts .
Time to switch gears!
Come down to New Haven, ill bring you for pizza and to a nice speed run spot. Got about a half mile straight stretch and some fun off road.
Ya made the tires sticky for the 4s run 😁
Lol! I did indeed! May need to switch to foams for higher speeds
Thanks!
Question; I was curious, do you think this car would run well on a Touring course?
Yes I think it has potential with some tuning. diffs seem loose, tires are not very grippy. it'll also need a programmable ESC as the brakes are all or nothing and cant be adjusted. Id recommend the roller option
Thank you very much...
I want one
Where’s farmer fran at?
I looked both ways before bashing!
I believe it got bout 75 if had enough space...That space is not enough at all!! 💪🏿💪🏿
I think so too! I’m gunna find a new road asap
@@413RC Cool!! are u going to film it when you do ??
@@andrataylor6070 absolutely!!!
You've got a xt60 to deans connection from esc to battery
Why not just get a battery with xt60 connection?
because I'm not buying another battery specifically for this car. I'll probably either solder new connectors on the car or the batteries eventually
@@413RC 👍👍
That’s what the adapters are for smh
@@413RC lol, I have a few HD 4k XT60 Drone batteries I'll be using for this car as well.
Ra-lar-lo?
Who freaking knows lol

Wrong-O … 100mph on 4S is with the extra gearing provided

@@warriordugan7236 I’ll take your word for it

U gotta change the gears to hit up 100. Stock seems plenty tho on these test I own the standard metal version
