    I think I would be tempted to just run the budget one for while to see if it does last. Treal 10x the price so massive difference. Great video Pete 👍🏻

      Hiya Damian. Yeah I probably should have waited for the cheap one to arrive and only ordered the Treal one if it had turned out to be crap which it didn't. Anyway at least I've got a spare. Thanks for watching mate 😁👍👍

    Hi Pete, now that you've done the first important upgrade on your Losi, the question is... Can it make it up and over the giant woodchip pile in one go? 😆🤣😖

    • @PeteWylieRC
      @PeteWylieRC  2 місяці тому +1

      Hiya Peter. Well the thing with the wood chip pile is that there is a big dip on the top which I found out when the truck went upside down on the top and I had to do the challenge myself to get it back. Cheers for watching mate. Best wishes 😁

      Hiya John. Yeah I also got one that is like a Tamiya hi torque servo saver and it was less than £3 so it's worth a look at what they have. Thanks for watching mate. Best wishes 👍👍

    Both seemed to work out well and the new servo is race ready fast! I saw you using the Muc-off dry lube, I love that stuff! It works great and smells a bit like bananas! LOL! I call it my nanner juice! Great to see it out romping and jumping around. It seemed happy with the new upgrades!

    • @PeteWylieRC

      Hiya Addam. Yeah those servos are just super quick and quite cheap so I've put them on all my big trucks. Yeah the dry lube does seem good for where you don't want the dirt to stick. Always good fun to run this truck in and out of the golf bunkers. Cheers for watching mate. Much appreciated 😁👍

    £30 compared to £3?!!!! 😲
    Blimey.....someones making one hell of a mark up there mate! 🤑
    I think i would have to take the £3 one with a little slop.....leaving £27 to spend on ale!!🍻 😜
    👍 👍

    • @PeteWylieRC
      @PeteWylieRC  2 місяці тому +1

      Oh yeah I did think twice about getting the Treal one but it seemed to be the one everyone said was good and I didn't know how long the cheap one would take to arrive. With hindsight, yes I could have bought £27 worth of beer which is actually the cost of a 5 litre container from the local brewery 🤔 Oh well it's nice to have a spare and the reassurance that the steering will return to the centre 😁 Cheers for watching mate. Best wishes 👍👍

    Another great video there Pete , the more I see this LMT it’s making me want to check one out for myself .
    So would you class this as an essential upgrade there buddy .
    Plus any downsides to owning a LMT ?
    Not had the chance to try one myself I was looking at new trucks .
    Hope your well buddy
    Chris 🤙👊😎🚀🤘

      Hey Chris I've sent you a little video message about the LMT which hopefully answers your questions. I think with a few little strength upgrades there is only fun to be had. Like I was also saying it handles quite differently to things like a Kraton and is a bit roly poly but you'll defo enjoy it if you get one 👍👍

    Just illustrates how these companies take advantage of consumers because of how stupid consumers are when it comes to value for money. Reminds me of the firearm industry here in the states, guys paying $350+ for a folding rifle stock which consists of 5 parts and a hinge... Its ridiculouy by comparison, you can buy a Kyosho Beetle with literally hundreds of precision, highly machined parts made from all different materials for $270. There's literally no comparison from cost/manufacturing and it makes ZERO sense. Just proves fools and their money are easily separated. Ask yourself, 10 stupid servo.savers or an entire kit made of hundreds of parts. What a scam.

      Oh yeah I didn't really want to pay £30 for the Treal one but I wanted something that would arrive quickly and get me out with the LMT again. The other one had to make its way from China. I had tried really cheap ones like the Kimbrough which was only £7 and works well in the Arrma trucks but just didn't cope well with the huge wheels on the LMT. So yes in summary the Treal one is overpriced but sometimes you just need something in a hurry and it does work great. Many thanks for your great feedback 👍👍

      @PeteWylieRC I understand. We all do it, I pay $3 for a can of diabetes when I buy my 16oz Monster energy drinks. We conplain about a $3 gallon of gasoline, this magical juice that transports us in vehicles from one place to the next, but stand in line at starbucks to pay the equivalent of $60 a gallon for coffee...lol. A cup of coffee doesnt exist that should cost more than a dollar.
      At least with the $30 saver you get something that doesnt end up as calories down the toilet and you made an awesome camparsion vid for the rest of us... So thanks!

      @@SpaceCoastStreetRippers Hey I just did some maths and petrol (gas) here is £1.40 a litre which is the equivalent to $6.75 for a US gallon. Luckily this being a small country, we don't tend to drive as far 🤣 It did go up to £2 a litre at one point which is about $9.63 for a US gallon. At that point I mainly cycled everywhere. Anyway thanks again for the great feedback 😁
