Most honest first impression video about this car I’ve seen. I was considering the brushed or the roller. Most def going with the roller now. Thank you as always bro.
Respect, saying it like it is without all the bs hype, speed runs should be all about you, your build and beating your PB Can't wait to see what you do next
Brother! I have been following you for a long time! I really like your style! Your video is like a microfilm! I will share it with all colleagues in the company!
This was an awesome review, you captured your surroundings with beautiful power lines, and industrial powerhouses, along with Canadas best graffiti. Then you ruined it all by telling us you weren’t wearing anything below our view view vantage point.(Thank goodness!) Didn’t realize you were really out to intentionally smoke this bad boy! Well done video brother! Truly entertaining! You should have your own show! Wait a minute, you do essentially have your own show!😝😎🍻
0:09 I haven't seen that ''Mad Tv''skit in years 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Well Aaron despite not being as fast as you wanted it to be it still looks like it's cool for some decent street ripping around maybe modding it as a drift car for your ''Midnight Club?'' 😎😎
Yep ordered my carbon roller and parts on 16th march had nothing except tracking that has gone no where for 3 weeks ?? Go damn you rlaarlo just want my car, but enough of that 😂 love you content keep it up 👍🏻👍🏻
I hear u about sour grapes. Rlaarlo's gonna have a lot more ppl feeling the same way. I ordered my metal brushless 1 on April 6th, they sent tracking info but never the car... I'm still waiting & I purchased the carbon fiber brushless versions also... I'm pretty sure they're just holding ppls money hostage smfh
I`m glad to see you received your order, lucky you. I ordered a Red Carbon fiber RTR on April 6. Received an e mail May 5 saying it was shipped. Cool. I check tracking and package was waiting for pick-up for 6 days, I e mail Rlaarlo on the 4th, 5th and6th day to tell them their is a problem, I e mailed the support line with help. It was delivered but not to me. I don`t know were it`s at. I did not receive one reply from Rlaarlo, NOTHING. The place is a joke, they don`t care about its customers, they just want your money. I`m still out $345.42.
I’ve got sour grapes about the Rlaarlo/Amoril 1/14 series just because they had potential to be great but every time I run em something breaks. I do want one of the blue and orange 917’s but I dunno if I’ll pull the trigger or not
I thought it was just my CF (RTR) version that seem to have the front wheels not facing in the SAME direction as the other. That CF (roller) appears to be the same at 6:04 (driver side wheel turned further out than the passenger.) Idk if in person it’s straight (as an arrow, as some claim,) or it’s just the angle I’m seeing it from, on this video, but my car (in person) one wheel seem to be facing away from the other a bit. If I were to balance both (as is,) they’re both are NOT facing straight forward, slightly outward. Not sure how straight it will drive that way; haven’t ran it yet, but I can’t see that being any good for the tires. Might need some alignment. *It’s hard to tell with the cover on, both look pretty straight (until the cover is out.)
Hey Aaron i think you are the only one so far that has shown the brushed model, where did you score the 6S capable ESC for only $13 bro....aliexpress? Do you have a link you can share. 👍
It was AliExpress yes! I've gone back and it's now $27. Think they may have made an error and I scored it before they realized how low they were selling it. I'm going to fire it up before I share the link, as I don't want to promote burning down people's houses 🤣🤣
i thought about buying one as they seemed like a good alternative to a 4tec especially with the pre sale and current sale. But hearing Rlaarlo not doing to good on the customer service end kinda turned me away. But im also all over the place with what I want. I think ill just snag the hypergo when its out and call it a day.
The car, itself, is actually excellent. I have the CF RTR, and it runs straight as an arrow. The electronics in it are also quite good. However, there are problems...and, as many are discovering, these problems are not with the car, but with Rlaarlo' downright-horrible customer service, as well as their inability to get orders (especially parts) shipped in a timely manner.
My car was supposed to be shipped a month ago with extra parts never heared a thing again… defenitly want a refund, fck this customer service its horrible
Hi didnt want to say any thing on sunday but it is now monday and still no reply from them .Just canceled one of my orders for the 3s battery and 50 tooth pinion gear.Will see if send a email about that.
Exactly why I stopped buying the cheapo stuff, after the first rip they loose their appeal but yet my Arrma never gets old. Just my opinion but I will say I’d love too own the blue one for a budget road car 👍
I wonder if this car drives as solid as ak 787? I a month or so i want to order one of them..i am sure by now they must have fixed any issues...i would keep mine stock...60 mph on 3s 4500 60c is all i am looking for...are both AK"s same gearing..i also think they have different motor options ..i will be getting metal rtr... thanks for great review. 😊😊
I believe the 787 is next on my list..beautiful race car...i saw you finally recieved your 1/16 scale sg 918...if you find a smooth road even the stock shocks can keep it straight as an arrow at 50 mph imo..i had mine up to 40mph with 3s 1000 20c,which fit perfect..also my mjx 2s 2000 mah fit perfect..i see bang g has a race star 2445 5400kv..i believe stock esc should be fine..no doubt it will hit mid to high 30s with 2s...over 50 for sure on 3s...i believe most guys would want a setup like this and want this upgrade..i myself am also considering it even though i like it already...i cant wait to get my new shocks and motor heat sink...may also add fan..motor gets pretty hot running in front of my house on 2s 2000 ion batt..but it was 95 degrees yesterday..its awesome at night and the radio is great with dual rates..if you could lower it someway that would be cool...but its so stable and planted i love it as is...i glued a platic washer under front bumper..when you brake that area hits ground...nothing else hits.i really think this car is going to be a hit...it blows all the others in this category away...Good luck!😊
Ohh brother I definately feel the sourness. Im thankful I got mine because I really liked the look of the car and what you get in them. I really dont care for the speed challenge, as Im really not competitive. As it is the platform is very capable of high speed and if I can get mine to s comfortable 120mph Im good. Good luck with that competition, I'll probably submit some mediocre speeds.
Hey Aaron I 100% agree with your opinion on this speed challenge. Btw I installed the 120A version of that esc in my 917 and ran it this past weekend. Let’s just say I was less than impressed with it, seems to be extremely underpowered. Hopefully the 150A treats you better 👍💯🇨🇦
Out of the box, carbon version is Nice, but really less pleasant to drive than aa tamiya TT02 with oil suspension and same brushless controller. Tyres have absolutely no grip and steering is quite strange. Plus, the pin of rear right wheel was missing. First opinion : disapointed, but im sûre they could improve soon.
I checked it out again on AliExpress and it's gone up to $27. I think I need to fire it up first tho as I don't want to promote something that might burn down your house 🤣
So all the rlaario wasnt brushless there where brush !!! I never seen a brush motor in a ralaario I know it’s ten months old 😅!! Why does your have.550 in there that’s why is slow!!! Very interesting 🤔
Another awesome video 👍 I am frustrated that I haven't received mine yet that I pre-ordered on March 26. I haven't even received shipping confirmation. Trying to be patient but GRRR. What kind of dumb competition is it when the competition is over before everyone gets the freaking car!.?
@@disciplinerc ok..I ordered 2 on March 26..then say being shipped on My 4, and still haven't arrived..call DHL and they told me Rlaarlo havet sent them yet
Got my metal brushless 3 weeks ago, still sitting in the box but I did put the battery in storage mode. Not decided what i'm going to do with it yet. Great Vid!
Hobby R/Cs are not for the regular guys that wanna have fun once a month. It’s a daily hobby that consumes our minds. When you become a tru hobbyist, you can easily beef up any rc and make it go as fast as you want it too. liability and human error from lack of experience covers why 99% of stock electronic rcs are slow out the box. You didn’t speak about the differentials? Do the look tough? Or cheap, what about the shocks and driveshafts, how well do they look like they will hold up to power? Does the steering and aarms move freely, it’s a lot you could have covered, even in your beginner stages, but I understand most of you guys are new to this hobby and are more into creating content. Respectfully this is a horrible review.

Glad I could be of service my dude!! 🤘😎
That intro was an AWESOME flashback for me, keep up the awesome vids!!!
I know right 🤘😂

I couldn't agree more dude! Hopefully they will live past my first pull 🤣

The presale price was a pretty good deal. Full pop though, not so much. I will say that the roller's are a good bit of kit for the money

The 787 handles better imo. They ironed out some kinks in terms of fluids. It's much more stable at speed. The body is better suited for speed too 👍

Ya I was there in the beginning of Rlaarlo
They are making a splash for sure. Time will tell 🤔
Can’t wait to see what you throw in it 😮
Yeah, the red one is gonna be a hot mess 😅
Looking forward to seeing what you do
Haha me too 🤣🤣🤣
The car is great do not break it I have been waiting more than 2 months for parts have not heard a thing about shipping.CS sucks.

I ordered mine back in March and still haven’t received it yet. In addition, as of today, they still haven’t responded to my last 3 emails 🤦🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️
Sorry to hear that dude, they definitely are dealing with a mess on their end
I've been a fan of the 917 for years my slash 4×4 looks the same
Nice dude!! Bet that's a sick ride 😎🤘
Great video 😂 agree for me its just seeing how fast you can go, 55mph for me do far 😂
I think the next step up with the gears it comes with will make a big difference 👍
Hey , can It be a good drift car with some proper drift tyres?
Yes, it's really well balanced. 👍👍
Hey good morning, kindly share the link to the 13 6s ESC
I checked it out again on AliExpress and it's gone up to $27. I think I need to fire it up first tho as I don't want to promote something that might burn down your house 🤣
Hey i don't mind, please share the link we could fire it up together
It's beautiful.
So all the rlaario wasnt brushless there where brush !!! I never seen a brush motor in a ralaario I know it’s ten months old 😅!! Why does your have.550 in there that’s why is slow!!! Very interesting 🤔
They aren't shipping, sent fake shipping numbers saying it had shipped. Not replying to emails. Refund received, arrma vendetta will be here tomorrow.
Sorry it didn't work out bro but the vendetta is an amazing platform and you will be happy you got it!! 👍😎
I watched this video without pants 👖 😅
