I'm not much of a dirt bike guy, but the tech underneath this rig is absolutely incredible. I'd love to see them put it in some sort of road bike, because I'd be all over something like that.
I rode motorcycles for over 40 years. One thing I learned is if there is a market for it........ With this advancement in gyro-electronics, I see many moto-genres opening up along with a prodigious aftermarket of personalizing upgrades.
Considering how these took off, im sure youll see streetbike conversions... i mean, with the sopermotard wheel swap it essentially becomes a "street bike" but im sure some creative people will come up with streetbike conversion mods, probably wouldnt be too much for 3d printers to make fairings
The laughter while running this says it all, looks like a blast! I plan one picking one up as well, always fun to try something new and the execution looks very good on this.
I'm an old time R/C Air guy. Planes, drones and helicopters. That said I did the early preorder and received mine this past week. WOW! is all I can say. This thing is rock solid. It is really easy to drive /ride even for a air guy. I have only ran it twice now due to oppressive heat we've all had. I've run it mostly loose gravel and what a blast. It can easily handle grass as well. The onboard tech is amazing and the entire package is extremely well thought out. Losi has a barn burning winner here. It will but a huge smile on your face. GET ONE!
Best review and running footage of this thing so far and I have watched pretty much all of em. Also you are the first person to mention and show that you can change the way the bike leans. Awesome review sir🤘
Losi really has something great here. I'm imagining there could be different body panel swaps for different motorcycles (adv/sport/etc) and the aftermarket scene could be cool to see with this.
@@V8chump yeah it's where the money is. I do think this will take off though once people see the tech is on point. Then they can start building street bikes too.
As a dirt bike rider and rc driver im afraid ill have to make the track out back into a MX track!! Just bought tickets to Washougal MX National race in 2 weeks! Saw a video earlier of several of these on a track and the control was not good BUT they were all laughing!! That's what we need in this sport!!pure laughing and joy! Fun!! ❤😊
I really hope proline makes a rear paddle tire for this so it can rip the sand dunes at the beach... I really want one, just gotta sell a couple other rcs first.
I'm guessing the rider is always headbangin? He seems a little hunched and forward on the bike, is the rider position adjustable? Seems like a good release from losi. The bike is pretty awesome. Losi has always had great suspension, my favorite shocks in general are the old losi 8e buggy shocks. So I imagine they have done well on this setup
Nice content and thanks for actually demonstrating the articulation of the suspension. Love the video rolling shots. Subscribed.... I am still waiting to receive mine and "chomping at the bit." Lol. I would like to super moto it and maybe put a paddle tire on it for sand dunes when or if they make the tires for it. Great stuff!
I had a Nuova Faor road bike back in the day. No gyro at all, took an acre to turn around. It was a challenging kit to assemble. No English instructions, that God there was pictures.
When having to make a tight turn to whip it around, try braking before entry to get the rear end to slide the opposite way of the turn, then roll into throttle. I was able to get the turns down on my second outing with my promoto. Great review.
I've watched people racing them and it looks like a blast. They had their own mini supercross track with banked corners whoop de doo's tabletops doubles triples it was insane. These things jump really wicked too. Controlling the front end with throttle while in the air looked sick too. The way they filmed it on the bikes level made it look super scale. You can see why they made these things. I want one!lol
Thanks for the great video Scale Builder's Guild! I have filmed them chasing these RC Dirt bikes on my DJI Avata FPS drone in Los Angeles, had a chance to film some Pro RC Riders
I've already seen one guy making an extended swingarm for hillclimbs/drag racing. And it is standard 04b roller chain. These would make for a great Monthly mayhem...
Another great video! The promoto looks like so much fun, definitely will have to consider adding one to my collection and we can rip some dank nooners together! 🤣
The real front disk break is awesome. You should glue the exhaust tip on. I almost lost mine 3 times before I CA glued it on. Once it comes off it doesn't stay on anymore unless you glue it. I sanded the inside and the tip where it makes contact then clean it with alcohol before e CA gluing it together. Hasnt comes off since. I have the blue one too. I ordered the green one first and overgot it. I'm still waiting for my pre-order. I feel shafted as I would have ordered red and blue first. Do you have any clue why the green one hasn't been sent yet?
It’s definitely a different world on 2 wheels. Get some friends and keep track of how many times that each of you have to pick it up. And yes on my Christmas wish list!
Still waiting for mine to arrive.... Loose sand?? Guess Proline better release that paddle tire!! Definitely see this being a hot class on 8th scale tracks
I think a stiffer neck and more flexible arms would help in realism. It IS cool to see the suspension doing it's thing in the slo-mo. Is the front brake servo trim adjustable? Maybe a little front brake drag would be a good thing? Good job to Losi for thinking out of the box. The more scale realistic models help this hobby tremendously.
Great video. Can't wait. I ordered the green one the day they came out but learned they dont ship till August 1st so i cancelled that and ordered the blue from local shop. Keep up the good work and rippin those nooners
It doesn't seem to be much of a "dirt" bike unless its hard packed. I've seen they already have street tires for this so, I hope they make a crotch rocket street bike version of this that can pull high speed dank nooners. I'd be more willing to buy in at that point. 🤓
I’m definitely doing a Super Moto version. My. “Doll”’s jerseys already arrived before my new orange plastics or the entire bike itself. Going for the KTM look. Im sure the kids are going to catch me playing with figure and dressing him up Spaceballs style.
Man this is pretty cool ! I want one really bad ! I have a few RC4WDs maybe if I stop buying so many awesome goodies for them , I may be able to save up enough money to get one of these motorcycles , I think Iosi did an amazing job of this product.
The leaning turns the bike but all the input comes from handlebars/front wheel (especially irl). They must have countersteering built in to controls so cool?
Thanks for the video, I reckon Im in... I was gonna get a drift car but this looks way cooler. Could never do wheelies myself so I will at last win here :) look forward to seeing your upgrades. Love the vids good job.
Ordered the green (fast) one 😊 the day it was offered. I have owned most of the rc bikes over the years and let down everytime. This one just looks different and right. Can't wait to get it!
@mark675 the excitebike, the kyosho hang on, the old Ricky Carmichel (sp) a gas powered no name I picked up at a swap meat. The kyosho was OK but ran on ni cd so heavy and short run times. The others complete crap!
I’m sure you’ve already seen the top gear video but wow replicating the wild one to scale, I hope to see some more of it in the future maybe one of it actually driving lol
Hey, mate! Now it‘s on the RIGHT BENCH! What we need is a „Yamaha YZ450R Sound Generator“ in it… That‘s just a Job for you, isn‘t it? What do you think? Have a nice day!👍😎
I am just in awe of this new platform Horizon has given us I cannot wait to get one of these also Matt do you have a Bmx course around you that you could give it a good mx style course to see how it does also I think the green is my favorite Liverpool far excellent review sit.. just wow right...😮
You see in some videos where it bounces after a hard landing and does a wiggle in the air… I think that’s a result of the MX6 gyro being turned up too much… almost like when you jump an RC car with AVC turned up all the way the wheels go crazy and then the car follows suit
Matt its just like a real dirk bike. In order to make sharp turns let off the throttle when u r turning. And then when the bike is almost around the turn then give it some throttle. Its the same thing with a real bike. I used to race professional moto x. U r 100 right there is a learning curve. But the way losi made this bike its the closest thing that u can get to riding a real bike.
I pre orderd the green combo bike, then the horizon website was update they had to cancel my order but I received a coupon for discount and i am back on the list to wait.
I’ve preordered one of these remarkable bikes should be here in a couple month’s maybe sooner I live in Canada so I’d like to get it before summers over lol 😂
We need an entire new racing series of these things!
Yup.. im going to start a series out here is SOCAL
All metal and customize to 3s?🤔It's almost insanely idea!😅
Yes they tried it some videos out its not ready for a series but after these UA-cam experience drivers give feedback maybe the next bike will be ready
It’ll come! I’d bet we’ll also see a competitor to this bike.. at least I hope!
@@chevyon37s it would be cool to get sponsors and more customization of bike and rider with stickers of sponsors
I'm not much of a dirt bike guy, but the tech underneath this rig is absolutely incredible. I'd love to see them put it in some sort of road bike, because I'd be all over something like that.
I was thinking the same. I've been through the range of different bikes and am back on Dirt Bikes after all these years. They are way fun
Get the road wheels and tyres for it. Road bike, well, Super Motard

I've already seen people racing them on a scale Supercross track. Would be great to take it to local BMX track too.
Definitely the coolest rc to come out this year. Will eventually get one once finances allow it.
Gotta agree, wish we’d get more unique RCs. I’ve had enough new versions of arrma or traxxas bashers… they’re all doin the same job 🥱
@@V8chump yeah it's where the money is. I do think this will take off though once people see the tech is on point. Then they can start building street bikes too.
I just stubbled on this RC early today, and have watched many videos on it. I have to say, your driving video is hands down the best so far!
Wow, thanks!

What a cool addition to the RC world. Thanks for the vid Matt. It was cool to watch you rip some dank nooners!
Thanks Matt I REALLY can't wait until I get mine. Have pre paid ORDERED MYSELF 2. Live in England so have to wait until end August ☹️🇬🇧🇨🇦✌🏼🤩👍🏼
Hopefully it'll be worth the wait!
Matt one of the best cinematic intros on the new promoto mx well done sir I can’t imagine how long it took to get those different shoots👍🏻
I was out there for quite a while!
I really hope proline makes a rear paddle tire for this so it can rip the sand dunes at the beach... I really want one, just gotta sell a couple other rcs first.
Heard they are already working on it!
That thing is soooo freaking cool. Yes I am definitely going to get one of those too. The beginning part of the driving video was epic!!!!! 👍👍
Yes I will get one, the platform is perfect for mods and I could see Losi make a different rider and plastics to turn this into a road racer!
I'm guessing the rider is always headbangin? He seems a little hunched and forward on the bike, is the rider position adjustable? Seems like a good release from losi. The bike is pretty awesome. Losi has always had great suspension, my favorite shocks in general are the old losi 8e buggy shocks. So I imagine they have done well on this setup
He's actually positioned pretty well compared to most bikes I've seen, it's pretty close to a seated attack position.
Nice content and thanks for actually demonstrating the articulation of the suspension. Love the video rolling shots. Subscribed.... I am still waiting to receive mine and "chomping at the bit." Lol. I would like to super moto it and maybe put a paddle tire on it for sand dunes when or if they make the tires for it. Great stuff!
Thanks for watching and for subscribing! Welcome aboard!
I can't wait for my street tires. I have this same blue one. So much fun. Great video!
I had a Nuova Faor road bike back in the day. No gyro at all, took an acre to turn around. It was a challenging kit to assemble. No English instructions, that God there was pictures.
Well? Got to hand it to Losi. It REALLY looks like something closer, to what I would like to have in a RC motor Bike
It's very cool!

This just wheelied into the rc to get. Great video

That would be awesome!
I’ve got one on backorder can’t wait for the next batch to show up. Hope it gets here before winter.
I want to see the first track kit to convert it to a snow bike
I love the outfit options, I’m not gonna lie.❤️🏁
I’m working on ‘Fonzi” and a “Chaka” out fit!
Extremely impressed with this. I will definitely be snagging one from my LHS. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
Losi certainly is taking their sweet time shipping out their green Pro Circuit version of this motorcycle. I’m still patiently waiting for mine.
Great video bro 👌 exactly what I wanted to see, can't wait to see the upgrade video 😉👍🏻definitely would love to own one.
Got mine a fine machine.
Going to upgrade and have fun forsure.

Amazing Rc Bike the best I've ever driven. We need a true road bike as well this bike is fast faster than a A traxxas stock slash
It’s definitely a different world on 2 wheels. Get some friends and keep track of how many times that each of you have to pick it up. And yes on my Christmas wish list!
I'm excited for people to get good at controlling these things. Will be so fun to watch races
Still waiting for mine to arrive.... Loose sand?? Guess Proline better release that paddle tire!! Definitely see this being a hot class on 8th scale tracks
Love the slow mo head bobbin
This thing looks like a blast!
Totally!
Most enjoyable review I've seen so far. Great video and great bike 😊
I'd love to see some Daryl Dixon version or something 😁
One of the better losi mx videos!
Time for the studio to start filming the sequel… Flying Motorcycles!!!
😂
I got mine Saturday, what a blast!!!
Right? Can't wait to have the time to take it out again!
Hi,
Hi, there, Matt . I am getting ready to retire,and have re entered the RC hooby. The fcx24 is my first re introduction to the hobby. Thank you.
Happy retirement and welcome back to the hobby!
Yep. I'm convinced. I'm gonna get me one of these Moto RC's.
DO IT

At last, the wait is over!! Running video turned out great!! Nice job!!
Thanks! Glad it was worth the wait!
Every RC I’ve ever owned hits a tree on the first pack! 🤪
Can’t wait to get one!! 😎🤙

I hope no one else was in there with you! 😂
@@scalebuildersguild "Who.. does #2 work for?!"
WTH!? I was I watching this and started giggling when it started to lean and do a power slide? I mean, I'm a grown man dang it! Why was I giggling!?

Great shot! 18:12
Thanks!
Unsure why but was thinking @ 19:02 that right foot was gonna come out..haha
It is so hard to shoot alone! You did a great job with it though. I love mine and can't wait to get on a track with 3-10 of my buddies.

Love it, very cool bike,but bit expensive in the UK, great to see it ripping around 👌😀😀👍👍
Looks great, and a lot of fun. Unfortunately, with our weak Canadian dollar, I doubt that I'll be spending $820 on it, though...
Fair enough... the exchange rate is brutal!
Love my sr5 but she needs a buddy. this bike is amazing!
Thank you for the awesome video as always and the helpful review!
Glad it was helpful!

Go for it! That sounds like a lot of fun!

I am just in awe of this new platform Horizon has given us I cannot wait to get one of these also Matt do you have a Bmx course around you that you could give it a good mx style course to see how it does also I think the green is my favorite Liverpool far excellent review sit.. just wow right...😮
There's a BMX course not far from here, but I have to go really early in the morning as they don't allow RCs on the trail. Thanks for watching!
Mytrick rc needs to make a light kit and turn it into a dual sport 👍 love the video!!
That would be cool!
Great Review 🎉🎉😎🤙
Thanks! 👍
Looks like you're trying to evade a torpedo! 😂 Great review!
might need to adjust that drag on the front brake. helps to stop that rolling.
You see in some videos where it bounces after a hard landing and does a wiggle in the air… I think that’s a result of the MX6 gyro being turned up too much… almost like when you jump an RC car with AVC turned up all the way the wheels go crazy and then the car follows suit
I’ll investigate porting to the DX5Pro so I can get finer adjustments!
Matt its just like a real dirk bike. In order to make sharp turns let off the throttle when u r turning. And then when the bike is almost around the turn then give it some throttle. Its the same thing with a real bike. I used to race professional moto x. U r 100 right there is a learning curve. But the way losi made this bike its the closest thing that u can get to riding a real bike.
Thanks for the tips! Having limited experience with bikes, I’ve got some more practice ahead of me!
So much potential for upgrades...tires, rims, chains, color change, rider and aluminum or carbon fiber upgrades.
Agreed!
Just got mine the other day haven’t tried it yet hopefully before the snow possibly this week 😢
Enjoy it!
Holy sh!t, now I want an rc trial bike! Thanks for bringing it up!!
