Steve, you ALWAYS manage to make me smile regardless of what you are reviewing. You two are just kids in grown-up bodies and I wish I had a fun friend like that locally. Thanks for all the great smiles!
RC Cars, boats, and planes were my thing in the 80's/early 90's and only packed them up for post-college life/work/etc... Recently unboxed them and having a great time but enjoying flying a drone so much with the modern capability of photos/videos, rechargeability/battery life, reliability (mini 2), and not having to practically rebuild it all every outing! New RC cars are amazing and I'm still eyeing that big jeep you tested with batman at the wheel! I've got an original GI Joe that would look right at home in that thing!
Cool vid. In the “No-prep drag racing” comps they only use 2cell lipos. Easier to handle ,but not as exciting!😎 Also a small car floormat to do a burnout on prior to a run will improve traction 👍🏻
I have the red Camaro. I stripped all the Summit stickers off of the car. Looks much better. I won my first race yesterday against a Modded blue Camaro. Very cool...
Losi 22s is what I have and absolutely love it...currently broken down waiting on gearing due to a major crash at 50 mph...stripped the gears so I ordered multiple gears ...thanks for the video!! From Georgia
I have both of these and the Traxxas has been the most successful. I can keep it straighter down the track with the TSM. I put an AVC receiver in the Losi but the TSM has it beat ! The Losi body is awesome though !!
My 8 year old son and I had a similar experience with our Losi F100 drag trucks. I do wonder if heating up the tires would've helped. I ordered new steering components, and when the snow clears we're gonna try it again, only this time heating up the tires first.
Just picked up my 2nd Losi Camaro, $250 bucks Black Friday..what a deal!! I say 2nd because my 1st Camaro kept snapping shafts and I had to return it. It was every run, I would snap a shaft....granted I was running 3s, full bore on all settings. So this one im going to stay with 3s but dial it back...I hope to get some good runs in. Great car though, especiallly if you stick with 2s, she would proably be fine.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 holy crap I just subscribed after seeing how organized that description was and how much work you must’ve put into just that one description
What! I'm in the 5'8 club myself! People say short but I honestly have never felt ANY challenge from being 5'8. Anyway, not much into the RC car thing myself. Always preferred flying. Fun video, thanks for sharing.
Both of those have body roll and need the suspension tuned! My Losi has 50 weight shock oil and dampers installed in the shocks and it does much better!
This was tons of fun, Cap'n - both pretty darn quick cars, something to think bout adding to my summer fun arsenal. Great video as always, take care and keep safe!
Rule 1 is 2 cell batteries.. the 3s makes them a handful. Where I live they only have 'street eliminator' class.. and I would love to see a 'box stock' class for the dr-10 losi 22s and Traxxas slash to keep the $$ down a bit.
I like seeing your channel again thought you were on a break for a while been thinking about getting the Traxxas Aton leds and the camera would love to see you do the drone video on the Traxxas drone.
This channel normally pushes out 3 videos per week unless I take a vacation (twice per year). Your UA-cam notifications may need adjusting. Traxxas Aton has been discontinued for many years.
GREAT video that really shows the fun you can have with RC cars! The Camaro body on the Losi is awesome 🤩 I'm glad to realize that your production resources are increasing a lot: you now have the equipment and authority to block a road to do some RC drag racing... 😉😄
Cool video man, I've recently started getting into RC cars on my channel too. It can be tough trying new content on youtube when you have a niche as the algorithm isnt in your favour but keep it up mate it's good to see!
Need help please. I am just starting in the 2s No Prep scene. I purchased a traxxas drag slash recently but am trying to upgrade it. On 3s, the motor is amazing, 2s, it seems really slow compared to what I've seen. I bought a Spektrum Firma 100A Brushless Smart ESC / 6500Kv Sensorless Motor Combo: No-Prep, SPMXSEMC13 to replace the stock motor but I think I made a mistake and might return it. what is the best affordable motor (not more than $200) you would recommend?
You guys did it perfectly! If you are smiling and laughing that's what I believe its all about. Thanks for another great video. Also Thank you for the drone videos it helped me decide on my first 2 drones just got a hubsan mini and my first one was a jjrcx11 and im loving them both thanks for the guidance 😁🤘
Traxxas Drag Slash and Losi Camaro, both are amazing and very fast RC cars. I don't know much about RC cars, but I definitely know about the basics. The races were very interesting! One thing that surprises me very much is the very fast speed of these cars at 105 kilometeres per hour! That is faster than many Camera drones and Planes!!! Btw, I am not sure so can you tell me that how much is the running time (one battery life) of Traxxas Drag Slash either 5000 mAh or 7200 mAh?
I know you did the Iflight Protek 25 and mentioned the 35, but a review on the 35 would be very interesting. I just purchased the 35 6S and it's a lot faster than I expected even though it IS a 6S quad so I should have expected that, lol. Nimble for a whoop too. Anyways, love your content and your channel. Keep doing your thing 🤘
Would love a video explaining beta flight in depth from you! As you explain and go through things amazingly and very thoroughly. Sorry this has nothing to do with this video just using the opportunity and one of the first commenting Your content is top notch!!!
I am new to this channel and this is the very first video that I watched it made me subscribe I love RC cars and I love to have fun with it just plain fun and that is what you guys were doing having fun I think that’s how it should be if you wanna race and compete and that’s on you but I just enjoyed it good old fun it makes me want to go buy dragster also keeping it professional and knowing The product that you are using that are very informative thanks for having a channel
Thank you Fred and welcome to the channel. I try to add a few RC car (electric and gas) videos to the wide assortment of drone, helicopter and plane reviews on a monthly basis.
The guidelines before I was allowed to comment pretty much answer all of my questions. I'm not a hater at all but when I see a channel that has 100k+ subscribers that makes this many mistakes its confusing. The video is great. The effort is top notch but the commentary is worse than eating nails. I would be willing to bet that the people in charge of the commentary are also the ones that set the guidelines for the comments. I hope those people read this with an open mind and realize this could be an amazing channel with a few improvements.

I think I had just as much fun watching as you guys had racing.
It looked like a beautiful day and a whole lotta fun!!

Captain really is just a big kid, isn't he? I love it
Every time you and Andre get together it’s a absolute blast. I really like your square body Chevrolet Truck.
Thanks Captain
Y'know, the little throttle control thing on the Traxxas is like the equivalent of clutch dumping. It's a great idea! 👍
Most drag racers dont use manuals. They are all autos now and that would be called a trans brake

They both are great cars. I have the traxxas 67 pickup. Lots of fun 😀

Really enjoyed watching the Head to head racing. I just bought the losi😊👍🏻👍🏻

Super fun ! Really having such close friend is something exceptional ✌🏻
I'm just wondering what GoPro mount you use on your hat because that looks way more comfortable and easy to use?
I think it is listed below the video under the GEAR I USE.

I love it! two friends out having a good time and taking us along with them. Great stuff!!!
That must have been a lot of fun
That looks like sooooo much fun!!!!! I cant wait to get my drag car next summer
Drive it like you stole it ;) Thanks for the laugh Steve. The nice weather can't return soon enough.
Both of those have body roll and need the suspension tuned! My Losi has 50 weight shock oil and dampers installed in the shocks and it does much better!
You both had much of fun i guess! Great vid!
Great video. That's what RC's are about having FUN! Both in leisure and in competition. Keep up the good work.
Nice Job....always more fun with a buddy. You guys did great. It would have been neat to have a 3rd person doing drone video coverage.....LOL
the best vaccine to cure a bad moment rc, bless the person is the funder of this hobby
This was tons of fun, Cap'n - both pretty darn quick cars, something to think bout adding to my summer fun arsenal. Great video as always, take care and keep safe!
Thanks for checking it out

a 'box stock' class for the dr-10 losi 22s and Traxxas slash to keep the $$ down a bit.
Awsome kiddies, reviewing a drag car is cool, but to racing them takes reviewing to a new level, loved it 👍

Looking forward for more ground rc's

It is always a good thing to mix things up on a UA-cam channel but stay true to the channel’s main purpose. This alone has helped this channel grow.

i always love duets with Andre (who by name should be giant) - why not FPV cars?
That. Looks. FUN!!!
I'm trying to choose now! Losi, traxxas, bandit,dr10 is out...thanks for posting!!

This is so much fun, I need to find more like minded friends lol
Awesome !!!!! you guys are what I wanna be when I get older lol no offense!!

Those are UA-cam guidelines. All channels have the same if rated as Family Friendly.
I'm sure adding the just over 1lb camera to a 6lb truck at its highest center of gravity doesn't help with stability.
1lb camera???? 6 lb truck??? How were your grades in science & math classes?
Losi 22s for me hands down
Great video really good fun
You do know there's a thing called a drag brake
Hi, love your vids ❤️
Thank you
Looks fun
RC humans when
Andre the giant
I like them
You need to make sure that the driver of the slash is not using the TSM !!!!!!
LOL Steve, you're worried about YOUR height?! I'm 5'2"! I'm literally the perfect average height of my parents :P
That was so fun 😅
Cool video guy’s 💪✌️
Awesome video
Glad you enjoyed it
Love this video
Wow car RC
Kevin?
I thought the losi was a 2s set up
'

I need this in my life hHaha
You're not driving it you're using the TSM
RC cars are sooooo difficult to learn :-)
I bought my first one when I was 19 I'm 39 now love the hobby but expensive as hell
You can always tell the most inexperienced driver LOL
It does not fly.
Off the ground.
Hai
Haha
no 2 cell no care
Damn after watching this video I don't know which one I want now probably going to end up with both LOL great video and who cares about the rules having fun is what it's all about
