    If you had a small groomed dirt track, you could make videos that show the benefits of upgrades and tuning. Bashing footage is very subjective, so a controlled track would help a lot. You have enough room in what I assume is your backyard that would make a great tax deduction: )

    • @ruuster83
      @ruuster83 13 часов назад

      This is how i see cars as well. I have a backyard track so durability is not my top concern, that would be performance. However it probably only applies to us few who mostly drive on a track.

    • @DoRC
      @DoRC  13 часов назад +1

      I definitely understand where you're coming from but as a pure basher it's just not something I really know that much about. I am not that great at tuning and wouldn't even know what to look for on a track as I've never been on one.

    Rlaarlo has been making some really cool cars lately, and I gotta say, in my opinion, this is the coolest one they’ve done. I actually like it in the “Raging Bull” livery they have, but this color looks awesome too. And it looks even more awesome with the Proline Trenchers. 1

      It's not so-called steel it is actual steel and if it's done properly it can be nearly as strong as CNC machined steel.

    Genius fix with the weak spot. Saw someone else who spoiled his car and fun in the first 5 minutes of running it and it was the screws at the back. Some of his viewers even tried to cancel their orders via emailing the company. Rlarrlo should pay you to engineer some of their stuff.

    • @DoRC
      @DoRC  14 часов назад +1

      Yeah I just don't think it was originally designed to have that kind of leverage on it but with screws and nuts I think it would be just fine. After putting the longer screws and it took quite a hit for me to to rip it off again and that was with the holes already messed up from the first time.

    • @danielc5191
      @danielc5191 13 часов назад +1

      @@DoRC I was wondering whether it is possible to use zip or cable ties as a preemptive measure. I don't have the car yet and can't really tell if there's space for that. Or can you share the exact measurements and types of screws and nuts you've used? Would do exactly the same to bullet proof it when it arrives. 🙏🏼

    • @DoRC
      @DoRC  13 часов назад +2

      @danielc5191 Not sure about the measurements but they are m 2.5 screws. I'd recommend just getting an m 2.5 assortment on Amazon and that'll give you pretty much everything you need to do it.

  • @ruuster83
    @ruuster83 14 часов назад +1

    semi-unrelated but: Recently got the WLtoys 124017-v8 ( still need to swap radio) but otherwise a very competent track car/light basher. Arrma is tougher, but MJX might be tougher than Arrma. As far as easy and fast laps, the LCRacing design still kicks butt even with WLtoys downgrading it. I paid $82 for the brushless RTR and $18 for carbon chassis and towers. nearly 40mph on 2s. Still a contender imo. Wltoys needs a radio swap and MJX needs an ESC swap to get rid of delays but so much power and value

    • @DoRC
      @DoRC  14 часов назад +1

      3S maybe though it's pretty narrow even for a 1/10 scale. I doubt it would survive 6s but it's way too narrow for that anyway. This really is designed for minis.

    Since there pricing this as the same as the am x/d 12 rcs it's legitimately a basher version but I'm kinda disappointed I was hoping for a chassis platform closer to the omni terminator or xts and definitely with a center diff thise is kind of a disappointment since the am d and waltoys are so modular already they should have just released these for upgrade and made a new 100mph challenge or something cool like that

    Also it feels like they just don't want anyone else to remotely use a idea that is like theirs, yet other brands use exactly the same design and still don't get sued.
