X-ray used to offer a cheaper and upgradable kit…I used to love that I like the idea of a lower cost option as TC has gotten out of the reach of the beginner for sure and if you lose starters the hobby can’t grow
I remember the XRay club racer. Looked like a great bit of kit, but never saw too many of them. But then, it wasn't so much cheaper than the race kits. However now, the price of race kits is so much more. The RS1.0 is less than 1/3rd the price of the BD12!!
Can it handle 13.5T mod? What is the must have upgrade right out of the box? Used to have a X-ray T3 back then. I have been out from touring for 10 years and currently running 2wd buggy..
Hi, it's the same transmission as the BD11/BD12 with the exception of a front diff instead of a spool. You'll want to build the diffs with a suitable silicone oil, instead of the supplied black grease, but there will be no issue with handling the power. Out of the box, I've only replaced the plastic servo horn with an aluminium one and used silicone oil as above in the diffs. I'll be putting a front spool in the car for next meeting, but it's not essential at all.
Hi Leslie, the RS1.0 runs a standard 1/10th scale 190mm width Touring car body. My RS currently has a "Zoo Racing" touring car body on, but there's a massive selection to choose from! You can see mine here: ua-cam.com/video/zFfEjEUS0yM/v-deo.html

Another great video Chris! I’m really tempted with this platform 😍
Can't wait to give it a proper track test. Make sure you grab a few laps with it too!

デフギヤの説明書は私も不親切に感じました。オイルを入れられる構造ながら付属のブラックグリスを入れてオープンデフのような効かせ方は初心者に易しく感じました。私はハイトルクサーボセイバーをつけてこれでツーリングカーを始めました。
良い動画をありがとう。
Thank you for the kind comments! I'll have my first race meeting this weekend. Looking forward to see it on track! :)
