  • FUN Factor is seriously next level with this caged animal. Huge thanks to ARRMA for the attention to detail, incredible performance, and monster smile this truck provides. The Tactical Team hung tough despite going seriously airborne this mission. Thanks also to Fast Track Hobbies in Rocklin, CA for their wonderful inventory and service.

    2022 is the year with the first RTR Basher that does so well in terms of the setup, stand, electronics, tires(!) and durability. GOOD JOB Arrma, you just raised the bar by a lot. Killer bashing Rich as always, just raises the mood while hearing you laugh and the rig scream 👍💪 😘

      Thanks so much much dear Kimberly 😍. This is easily the funnest, most impressive RTR I've ever bashed 🥰🥰. I actually dig the styling of it too 👀. Really just ramps up the scale fun factor. The cage design truly adds massively to the overall function and durability. The tires are ridiculously fast with perfect grip and slip 👌. ARRMA nailed it. Very easy to love this one. 😘😘😎💪👊👊

      Rich is the most fun driver to watch, hands down! I think he does so much handling with his rigs because he gets to full speed... then the momentum carries a lot of the handling... obstacles are less impeding with that momentum... then Rich just does his awesome corrections based on what's needed to react... the rest of us don't have the courage to slam that throttle and so we have to do a lot more work... we still have to correct, but also bother with changing levels of momentum and inertia... Rich gets those factors right the eff out of the way!!! I really hope to try that some day... maybe I'll start with a cheap durable 12th scale or something... Thank you, Rich, as always!!!

    Just watched both of your vids Brother Rich! Killer shakedown run and bench first look! Arrma has really nailed it with this platform!😍The 1/7 scale is probably the best overall! Love my 1/7 Talion XL and Mojave!🤗 She glides and drives so well! Very balanced! Good call on moving the battery tray back!🤙Killer run in this vid! She definitely took a hammering to be all stock RTR😱 I had a blown bearing and shaft pop too..ended up roasting the rear ring gear but since replaced and shimmed both diffs with the 13x16 shims.😎Can't wait to run this rig again! Bad winter storm this weekend so maybe she can have a snow mission!🤣Killer run and launches. Love the on board footage too! Bash on bro!😎💪🤘🚀🚀

Definitely need to shim my ring gears soon. I actually dropped 2 Mugen Seiki planetary shims on just the cup side of my center diff when doing my tune. Not sure it was necessary, but prefer the larger diameter anyways. Appreciate the kind words Brother and glad you recovered well from being sick too🤗. Have fun in the snow and stay safe. 🍻🚀🚀😎💪👊👊

    Awesome bash Rich, i have to admit im shocked its still stock besides the gaskets and fluid, most id they put a stock arrma through those tumble or landings theyd break by then, besides obviously the bearing blowing, but the arms and chassis holding up is a welcomed surprise. I definitely think it has to do with the plastic bracing and that interbraced caged body. The plastic braces allow the chassis to flex back when its bending and go back where the aluminum wouldnt. They body did an awesome thing with that body and cage design

      Thanks so much Brother 😜. I actually just got my HR Talion/Mojave braces in the mail today, but wasn't planning to mount them until the stockers let go 👍. The cage design is absolutely brilliant 👀. It actually serves as a brace for the frame I believe. So many contact points with the truck itself. The truck has several areas to absorb harsh impacts. The bumpers and body mounts alone are ultra beefy. The fact that the cage locks into the bumper by design truly strengthens everything. The rear side panels could use larger surface plastic or rubber washers 🤔. They have collared screws from the factory. I think you're right about the plastic braces. Hopefully they'll keep doing their job. 🍻😎💪👊👊

Love the vid as always bro and I'm glad you're feeling better.
    Haven't been out for many bashes lately as we've had a hell of a summer here in Oz where we've been hittin' between 40-44C (104-111F) which was to much for the trucks. Still trialing my solid tires on the Infraction and they're holding up pretty well.

    Why does no one mention the rear hand brake function ? Don’t think I’ve seen anyone use it yet or show what it does etc.All you guys got them free but all you want to do is send them skyward and there’s enough rigs already that can do that. Honestly I had this on pre order but changed my mind after watching the freebie vids sadly other than the cage it’s nothing new and nothing like you can’t di yourself but better like you did

    • @richduperbash2966

      I did mention the rear hand break in my bench video. I'm just not accustomed to using it. It's good for quickly sliding/turning 180° and changing directions or "evasive manuevers". That's not something I need to do to have fun driving the car. You might not realize the time and effort involved in shooting and editing videos. Nothing is freebie when you're the person actually doing the work 😂. This Fireteam is actually something new. It's an RTR with a footprint they've never offered before.

    In fact we only noticed a small piece of the hanger had snapped off leaving the left tire slightly wobbly 1 full run later!

    With the rhythm that you have on the trigger, with 16 teeth of the pinion, does the stock electronics not heat up? At what degrees (ºC) can it be set?

    Hey buddy quick question about the maxx if you can indulge me.. the piston dippies from m2c will work with version one right.. I have v1 and was curious... that armma is badass, but the orange darling is still one of my all time RUclipsr rcs. This and that street basher you have are nuts

    Hey Rich love the vids but a quick question, after desiding to get back in to the hobby and buying the kraton 6s blx v5, I keep running in the issue of my stock motor getting really hot after 10 mins of regular bashing on stock gearing. I tried the optional 15t that comes in the box but that just heats up the system to quick (max 5 mins of running) I added a powerhobby heatsink with double fans and that helps a bit. Is there anything else to change to be able to run the 15t for a longer time or do I need to change the esc / motor setup for that. Im also looking into getting the backflip lp's and tuning the difs.

    • @richduperbash2966

      Hey Thomas 🤗. Great choice with the Kraton. It's normal for the electronics to feel hot after 5-10 minutes. Make sure to use an infrared temp gun to track more exacting numbers. 150-160F max motor temps is fine. Above 170F is too hot. If you're running on grass, temp control becomes challenging. Make certain your bearings are healthy and mesh isn't too tight. The stock Spectrum 2050kv is just big enough to handle the truck with proper gearing and wheels. Backflip LP's are fantastic for shedding weight and taking strain off the entire truck. They're extremely planted and handle awesome 😍. There's lots of high torque larger motor options that are more efficient. The Max6 4985 1650kv combo has become one of my favorites. With a 20-22T pinion you have gobs of power with much more efficient temp control. 🍻😎💪👊👊

    • @richduperbash2966
      @richduperbash2966  Год назад +1

      No heat issues here. I recommend using an infrared temp gun anyways just to track your temps periodically. There's lots of variables that impact temps. So long as your motor stays below 160F and ESC around 140F, you're fine. 🍻

      My Orange Darling XL is sporting a classic Proline 1972 Chevy C-10 long bed. Had to cut the rear fenders straight back and mount it truggy style. It fits like a glove. Hugs the mudguards so it doesn't flap and parachute on huge sends. 🍻😎💪👊👊

    Put a construction level on it so we know how bowed that chassis is. We need to see what that $800 price tag means in durability.

    • @richduperbash2966
      @richduperbash2966  2 года назад

      I don't need a level to know when a chassis's bent. Most times a stamped aluminum chassis will start to bow if you're doing enough big jumps. There's nothing new about that fact. This one hasn't bowed yet. Only thing I noticed at home was a rear chassis ear did bend upwards. Probably landed right on a rock from height. Seen it before. The truck took a considerable beating and didn't break (besides a blown bearing). If you don't believe the truck is durable, go drive one. 😎💪👊👊
