lol, I am having flashbacks of my Bamdit hitting my toes at around 60! They were sprained for weeks lol! That thing is pretty quick…. And Sypom makes so quick LIPOs no doubt!
The beginning of this video was scary. You need a 2nd roll bar affixed to the roof. That way instead of a willie it will back flip and keep on going. Very nice car my friend.
@@Rek_Rc lol,,, get some steel toe boots. Seriously your channel is awesome and I say that because your a good entertainer and you provide great information about your cars. Keep em coming my friend.
I always appreciate your kind words friend. You also raise a good point. With how fast many RC's are able to go, especially dedicated speed cars, and with how closely they rip past the driver and others, you'd think steel toe shoes would be standard equipment by now lol. I'm just glad it wasn't the much heavier and faster Senton I hit myself with hahahahaha. That would have shinned me so hard I would have cried.
@@Rek_Rc I'm just glad your ok. I think the worst danger are lipo batteries. I watched a video of a guy that tried to unplug a smoking lipo and as he was doing that it flamed up and burnt his hands. It's probably best to just let your car burn in that situation.
It really surprised me. It really is nearly as capable as a 3s arrma or something around that range. It's not quite as stable, not quite as high quality either, but for 200 you almost can't feel a difference. The gap in price is large but the gap in performance is small.
I am a owner of this car is complete garbage… You run this on three cell you be lucky if it lasts one outing. It will overheat the electronics can not handle it the list goes on… Sure you could probably film a couple runs like this video but that's about it. All the linkage that looks adjustable is all fake this car cannot be changed in any way it's just junk
Cool video 🔥 👍🏽 💯 💪🏾 I just got one of these one thing it really loves is wheelies I was very impressed on the torque of this machine I run mine on 3s as well very fun rc 💪🏾
I'm glad you enjoyed the video. This is the most surprising car I've had on the channel so far. It exceeded its advertising and my expectations. You should see how it did at the skatepark. It took a serious beating and passed the durability test with flying colors.
The beginning of this video was scary. You need a 2nd roll bar affixed to the roof. That way instead of a willie it will back flip and keep on going. Very nice car may friend.
Any 3s with a deans connector will work. The one used in this video is actually slightly too large to fit the car comfortably. But any 3s below a 40C rating will work perfectly. Ovonic 2200 MAH 35C would be perfect for this RC. They are the perfect size for it
Great video man, love the content! I have to ask, did you do anything to the car to run 3s other than just shove a 3s battery in? My X07 constantly fries my servo as soon as I go 3s.
No, I just slapped in the 3s stock. I believe there were a couple differences between the earlier version and the more recent version of the X-07 though. I'm not sure if there is a difference in the ESC or servo or not, but I wonder if that may have something to do with it. I also noticed other reviews of the X-07 only running about 40 on 3s, but this one runs 46 or more consistently. So, I'm actually not sure myself. Might be an interesting topic to explore though.
@@Rek_Rc Yea I contacted Hosim about it, waiting for a response because I wasn't too pleased with their initial feedback which was something along the lines of just keeping it on 2s 👎
@@Rek_Rc Not even that...they just got back to me, let me ask you something, what was the spec on the 3s battery you used? They're now telling me that because my 3s battery is rated at 55c the discharge current is too high for the esc and servo, and that I should use a 3s that's below 25c...I don't remember seeing that stated anywhere in the manual, or heard anyone in any of the youtube vidoes mention that...sound like bull to me! And again, they didn't even offer to send a replacement servo.
Thank you as always sir. To be honest I always feel a little silly doing speed runs knowing someone like you who is a speed run guy is watching. I'm always like "I sound like a noob right now". But, I always appreciate you commenting sir.

I bought the x08 and it's garbage. Bad all around diffs aren't sealed, you can't drive it in sand , water, snow, or Hell even on the asphalt. I'm currently trying to get a refund as well considering I've not bashed it jumped it or even really driven it enough for the 4 wheel drive to strip out and the rear diff to strip out completely.

It's funny how we can be in control and still crash into ourselves. LoL
Cool RC and great speed runs
That thing is much faster than advertised. That's so rare.
I heated the stock wheelie bars on both the 07 and 9130 and just bent them down a bit... Helps a lot with the flipping issue
Yeah this wheelie bar seemed to act as more of a springboard.
That’s awesome!! I just picked one up and apparently I need new tires lol
