Another reason for the parachuting could be the lift of the front suspension under acceleration as the rear compresses. May be put holes in the black portions of the back of the body to let the air escape. it all is in the tuning .
Hi guys I love your videos I am a fifty-year-old RC addict one problem I have when you have to do a speed run the track that you go to is for human beings it is not long enough I go to large parking lots or industrial complexes they usually have streets that are very untraveled you truly will get a real speed with a longer run thanks keep up the work
Dang the wind, excellent message and exactly why I'm not a trax...ssass fan, i will buy anything but, just for the exact reason you mentioned. Only one LHS that has caught on and at least carry some redcat parts now. Born to be different, not sheep.
@@resp86 I've had my revo ran over by a full sized man on a bike.. and nothing. For my 20 years in the hobby I've never seen a better made or more durable product for bashing... racing is a different story (AE)
That's unfortunate that you're having issues with Thaxxas. I've owned RC vehicles from a lot of different manufacturers and seem to always come back to their products. They're not perfect and some of their products seem to be overpriced, but overall my family has more fun and less problems with the majority of the RC vehicles we buy from them.
I have spent over 1300$ on a Traxxas x max for my son and less than 30 days it’s been sent back to TRAXXAS after begging them to help and I pay shipping mind everyone within 1st 30 days never will I buy another Traxxas just because the way they stood BEHIND NOTHING UNTIL I PAID FOR IT
Great job testing. Those cars are really tough to speed test, especially when windy because of their stature and aerodynamics. Loved it as always, true quality.
All jokes asides, this Short course Truck is actually a clone of the Helion Select four 10SC. This is good news for you because it means you can have the option of buying cheap VKar racing parts online or buying Helion parts from your local hobby store which may cost more but means you may not have to wait.
Bit of friendly advice... Turn your D/R down so that the steering won't be so sharp. I have a Traxxas UDR with the 34T pinion on 6S, and I turn the dual rate down to less than 15% for straight speed runs on cement. Over 40mph with 100% Dual Rate on cement, straight, is pretty difficult to do. With a 15% dual rate I can hit 64mph on a fresh set of 6S (2x3s Serial) batteries, straight run on cement. Also, might help to find a wider area, and about twice the length. Just an FYI from a long time RC user of many surface and air RC models.
I know this is an older video but I noticed something useful..if you have body lift issues in the nose, this model can easily be adjusted for it by moving the front shock lower mount to a different hole closer to the tire, thereby lowering the nose. This will also stiffen the suspension which is good on pavement but not for off-road.
We all know what Laxxas did to other manufacturers...HPI, Redcat, Arrma etc.⚓ Not a fan of that Laxxas. Redcat is my brand of choice because they are the little guys. Underdogs🍻 Got me into the hobby
Abby was waaaaaaaaay more excited about this test run than Nate. On a side note, need to invest on a dead cat for the mic to cut the wind noise. Love your channel and keep churning out the content
Great video Saylors, I have a couple of those Ovonics 2S 5000 mah batteries and mine work great too. I also have the VKar Bison (thanks to you) which I love! I just got an Arrma Kraton 6S BLX V4 1/8 scale and OMG it is a total BEAST! Talk about scary fast you should try one of those!!!
Nice! Been looking at this one. Great to see some of these "smaller" manufacturers producing some good quality gear. All about frugality in this hobby. Family friendly for the win!
Nice job guys. I have a 2wd nitro Slash and love it. I purchased it when there weren't a lot of other options out there. But now there are and Traxxas should realize that. They don't "own" the market anymore. After hearing what they did I don't think I would buy any more of their products.
I'm so sick of hearing about Laxxas and their crap attitude. Treating family friendly channels like yourself like dirt, it's just not a good look and it's bad for business. They're just bullies, but it'll catch up to them. Arrma is vastly superior in quality and instead of actually striving to improve and compete, they'd rather just sue other companies and try to throttle LHS. Keep up the good work though. My son and I love your channel. 😉
Thanks a lot Thomas, that really means a lot! We will keep making fun, family friendly videos as long as awesome people like you and your son keep watching 👍👍
Add stiffer weighted shock oil in the rear and it will keep the back end up under top speed. As well you can lower the suspension arm travel in the front and rear to crest a lower profile. And you’ll get about 3-5 more mph
The gusty wind conditions may have effected your top speed... Just saying... I am very excited to see the up-coming bashing vid of this very cool truck! Thanks for another great review! Take super care! JP
If anybody ever buys this and is looking for parts here in the states, Helion rebranded this exact same RC and called it the Helion Select 4. So if they have Select for parts available, then they'd fit right on this.
Love you guys ,been watching from the early days ,only just realised I hadn't subscribed ! Oops sorry anyway I've been in the RC hobby 36 years I highly recommend using and xt60 battery connection ,I've had many failures and amp draw issues with red deans connections .good luck
I don’t buy them I think that there better Rc’s out there for a lot less money, you’re just buying the name and they need to know that this is a free country and we still have freedom of speech that they can’t buy, great job guys 👍🇺🇸
wait wait wait... forget the truck.. was that a guy ROLLER BLADING?! haha you guys are awesome. i bought the laegend 1:10 from amazon and now im hooked and watching all of your videos trying to decide what my next rc vehicle/craft will bee.
It has a Bison frame, which means it's a Hellion, which makes it's awesome, Buy the Hellion replacement parts and RPM hops up's and whoop some Laxxis butt!!!!! I did that with my FS racing hydroplaning MT and it's awesome. Did it with my Bison too.
OooooK !!!! Let's start on the Laxas Lash or whatever.Lil. there is no competition. The truck you are running in this video is more than enough you have all the fun you need. I love how Nate and Abby keep it family oriented and all about family fun instead of who can beat who who's faster than who who can put who down more to make themselves look better. I'm sure no one is interested in this including myself. There are other family oriented RC posters on UA-cam. But they're too loud and boisterous and obnoxious you guys are low-key down to earth and just all-around nice people that's what we're looking for that's why I'm sending you this message. Kudos to your mentality personality and attitude all around. Love you guys. Keep up the good RC work. Give your baby a hug for me From us on the treasure coast Florida
Loving this one thanks for sharing like to see you as a couple having plenty of fun she's a good driver the truck is worth the money and can get after market parts keep up the good work
Great video luv the truck going to add that to my collection Great job guys and a great price can't beat that for a ready to run Will be looking forward to more of your awesome video take care talk with you guys later
Good video guys i enjoy the different RC models that u bring to the channel. I thought i subscribe but i didn't, i just fix that problem, enjoyed the vid, thx for sharing
Pretty impressive for a “Laxxas” Lash. My question is do you do research on if parts are easily available or are they compatible with the other brand? That’s my first or second concern when RC shopping.
The holes in the body is great Idea. Those short course body's just don't do well with speed. I probably couldn't do that good lol. Keep it up love you guys
Love how simple y'all's review videos are. Good for purchase decisions. You do know, however, that a consumer grade GPS speedometer only measures horizontal speed. So flipping the car would not effect the measurement of top speed. If you put it on a rocket and shot it directly at the satellites at 500mph it would appear as if the rocket was doing a fraction of it's actual speed if anything at all.
Maybe y'all should rig up a hangglider on it. Make sure that it ain't on the track, y'all don't want to lose that because y'all almost hit that pole a couple of times do to the air lift - without a wing of sorts.
Cool looking truck! Nice speed, decent price. I guess the hill is next or some jumps? I have a Traxxas Slash and yes it looks similar! There I said it! Haha!
Haha, it's okay for you to say it, just not us apparently. You know, we used to own a few of their trucks, but after being threatened by ... "someone" it really makes a person not want that name around any more. Thanks for tuning in Mel!!
Personally I prefer Arma as they are constantly seeking to improve their product by following what customers are doing to their cars and incorporating the modification into their next gen cars. the other company I feel is trying to control what the owners of their cars can do with them.
Its definitely a better looking truck than "laxxas trash" time will tell on the plastics. Either way I would buy this before the other brand. I'm tired of there bully sue happy mentality. And on a lighter note you guys rock and keep up the awesome videos!!!!
Please consider putting your batteries in the other way please. Most crashes happen in the front of the car and your battery pack will slip forward more likely and wreck the wire leads and cause a battery fire. It's better for the butt of the battery to get shoved into the front of the battery tray when a front impact happens 🙂 Hope this helps bro. Safety first. ❤️👊😎
I see you did such. Great run! Laxxas can't hang at all these days. They have to use law to silence competition. Arrma Senton for a SCT for $60 more will get 50mph. I've sold all my Laxxas Trash but the single one that was my first truck. And I have way too much $ in it now to get any money back. We live and learn. Marketing is powerful.
Never been so sure about vkar.. Are these a distributor brand then? E. G. Products are just badged with different company names. Cheers guys, keep up the good work.
We will be showing more on this later, but know that there is pretty solid part availability for it, and it's a true 1/10 scale so you could essentially grab any brand you like :-)
Films Presents RC, yea VKar and Helion are the same thing just re-branded. HobbyTown hobby shops have pretty much any part you need for Helion aka VKar.
Would love to see the alligator boat, and maybe that indestructible foam jet . I saw the video they hold it underwater and take off from on top of water, rocks , seems too good to be for real
What is a “short course truck”? Sorry I’m new. Is there also regular and/or long course trucks and what is the difference between 2S and 3S and how do I know if a car can take 3S? Sorry again if my questions seem silly but I’m new and trying to learn. We really enjoy your videos! Thanks for making them!
Just curious...love this truck and ordered it today...how long did you have to wait for it to arrive? Been interested in this truck for months and this speed test and bashing video has sold me 100% I cannot wait to have some serious fun with this thing.
Haha, 'freedom'. I don't blame you for playing it safe, it shouldn't be that way, but more power to you for CYA. Any chance of some newer WPL or JJRC 'crawler' military style trucks in the near future?
look say what you will about Traxxas, but the X-MAXX is an iconic piece of machinery amongst hobbyists, Its like Jaguar, they're not the best car manufacturer in the world but the E-Type will forever be an icon, and their most prized production.
I was in the market for multiple big monster trucks and was all but settled on the Trackas X-Laxx's. But after seeing what they did to you, hearing stories from my local hobby shop, and doing my own research on their tactics; I realized how bad that company is for the hobby in general. Long live everyone else, but that company either needs to fail completely or change management.

"Cheap"
Me: checks price
Price: 400 dollars
Me: .....
The video is over a year old. Alot of times as the kit gains popularity the price will go up. it sucks but it does happen.
Get the pro version it's a kit with all metal chassis and has 3 differential
I got a wl toys a959b and goes way faster than this for 320 dollars less lmfao
It’s actually 67 on Walmart

That's why I like manufacturers like hpi and team losi cause there parts r widely available
Hahaha...that wind:)
Looks like a project for flight fest 2019. :)
Awesome video as always Nate and Abby by the way do you have a Wind Shield?
Wow man that’s interesting about Laxxas, you guys keep up the great work.

I priced this up to be delivered to UK 🇬🇧 and it worked out to $300, so not that cheap for us brits ☹️☹️☹️. Loved the video, awesome guys.....
Cool looking truck!
Nice speed, decent price.
I guess the hill is next or some jumps?

Ooh - a fast & salty video. Like it! 😁👍🏼👍🏼
No salt, truth. Fact.
This was my fav rc. Cheaper and better than traxxas in my opinion.
:-)
Wayyy better than Laxxas Llash:)
@Walker Bartlett to true
That was cool in the grass crash and burn😂❤️
I think it's great you both love the same hobby 😁
I think the reason the car goes airborne is because the cover doesn't go past the front fender and air goes right in and lifts the car up.
That thing is pretty sweet but i really love my senton 6s i hit 77 mph the other day with the speed pinion on 6s it was crazy.
Arrma is awesome
Personally I prefer Arma as they are constantly seeking to improve their product by following what customers are doing to their cars and incorporating the modification into their next gen cars. the other company I feel is trying to control what the owners of their cars can do with them.
Please do not get us wrong, we LOVE Arrma and have for many years now :-)
To me this is as a direct comarison to the company you can only alude to.
Its definitely a better looking truck than "laxxas trash" time will tell on the plastics. Either way I would buy this before the other brand. I'm tired of there bully sue happy mentality. And on a lighter note you guys rock and keep up the awesome videos!!!!
Please consider putting your batteries in the other way please.
Most crashes happen in the front of the car and your battery pack will slip forward more likely and wreck the wire leads and cause a battery fire.
It's better for the butt of the battery to get shoved into the front of the battery tray when a front impact happens 🙂
Hope this helps bro. Safety first. ❤️👊😎
VKar is awesome!
Loving this truck so far!!
Keep up the good videos
It is out of stock. Hope it is coming back soon.
SCT kiting is a challenge. My Slash 2wd wants to be an airplane after I modded it. Maybe pull the lid off and do a speed run?
I see you did such. Great run!
Laxxas can't hang at all these days. They have to use law to silence competition.
Arrma Senton for a SCT for $60 more will get 50mph.
I've sold all my Laxxas Trash but the single one that was my first truck. And I have way too much $ in it now to get any money back.
We live and learn. Marketing is powerful.
Awesome truck not to bad on the price.
Glad you agree, for what you are getting it's showing a LOT of promise!!
$240 with aluminum parts is not bad traxxas doesn't even come with aluminum on it
Cuz they suck.
Never been so sure about vkar.. Are these a distributor brand then?
E. G. Products are just badged with different company names.
Cheers guys, keep up the good work.
We will be showing more on this later, but know that there is pretty solid part availability for it, and it's a true 1/10 scale so you could essentially grab any brand you like :-)
Films Presents RC, yea VKar and Helion are the same thing just re-branded. HobbyTown hobby shops have pretty much any part you need for Helion aka VKar.
Me checks price
400 dollars
Me .....hahahah very funny
Would love to see the alligator boat, and maybe that indestructible foam jet . I saw the video they hold it underwater and take off from on top of water, rocks , seems too good to be for real
nice truck
What is a “short course truck”? Sorry I’m new. Is there also regular and/or long course trucks and what is the difference between 2S and 3S and how do I know if a car can take 3S? Sorry again if my questions seem silly but I’m new and trying to learn. We really enjoy your videos! Thanks for making them!
Wow looks sweet 👍👍.
If you break it can you go to your local hobby shop and get parts for it or do you have to wait a month
Need to make a run in each direction to see how the wind affects the vehicle.
Just curious...love this truck and ordered it today...how long did you have to wait for it to arrive? Been interested in this truck for months and this speed test and bashing video has sold me 100% I cannot wait to have some serious fun with this thing.
And yes please invest in a good cat tail for your mic ..... Still love you guys . And will always watch all your vids
You said it cut holes lots of holes air escape holes in the rear are the best 👍
Haha, 'freedom'. I don't blame you for playing it safe, it shouldn't be that way, but more power to you for CYA. Any chance of some newer WPL or JJRC 'crawler' military style trucks in the near future?
Nice sct. I’m looking for one at the moment. I’ll definitely check this one out
look say what you will about Traxxas, but the X-MAXX is an iconic piece of machinery amongst hobbyists,
Its like Jaguar, they're not the best car manufacturer in the world
but the E-Type will forever be an icon, and their most prized production.
Wish someone (you two) would review the Pro version of this truck, the top tier option is amazing! It's called the VKAR V3 MASC 4x4.
Y'all are great!
Good video.
Fun looking truck for a good price, but they want $123.00 for shipping.
No deal 😕
I was in the market for multiple big monster trucks and was all but settled on the Trackas X-Laxx's. But after seeing what they did to you, hearing stories from my local hobby shop, and doing my own research on their tactics; I realized how bad that company is for the hobby in general. Long live everyone else, but that company either needs to fail completely or change management.
❤👍😃😃 Glad you took the time to learn about said company. It's a shame that this type of thing exists in the hobby, even life in general.
Could you guys do a video where you try to track a car with the follow mode in different drones to see how well they do?
Are parts available for this truck? How would this compare to the arrma senton?
Name of this truck plz????
Is it cheaper than Arrma senton??? ☺☺☺☝☝☝
Awesome car!
😃👍⚓
