    As soon as I saw this car in the background of a previous video I knew it was finally in the right hands, a lot of people who hyped this car up so much then because they (like myself) don’t know how to set up a speed run car, and or have unsuitable places to do a speed run. So glad you’re staying in the game, now, can you get a new world record with the Rlaarlo AK917? If anyone can, you’re the man for the job! Looking forward to seeing more of you and the Rlaarlo (as well as the 1/7’s). Thanks for sharing your experience and thoughts with us.

    Agreed on the "finally in the right hands" comment from someone else. Raz is, definitely, the one to get the AK-917 to the speeds it's capable of. Some of the 'bashers' who received pre-production units are doing "good" with them...but, as we all know, Raz will do 'great' with it. For my first AK-917, I'm keeping the Rlaarlo ESC & motor, and "limiting" it to 3S. But, when it's time to build the second one, that's the one that'll be running 4S & Castle. Can't wait to see what Rlaarlo comes up with when they get around to releasing a 1/7, to 'compete' against the Limitless & VTE2.

      two things to learn from KT: 1) tires don't last. He runs them TOO many times and they fly apart 2) KT's motto is: more batteries, more motors, more weight "why can't I go faster"?
      Raz is doing it right: 1 or 2 motors, 1 or 2 batteries then all in the gearing and set up. Also aerodynamics.
      The thing about more batteries/motors: it all adds weight and that extra power, extra batteries don't give you that much more speed.
      One thing he IS getting right: length. Top AA fuel dragsters, downhill Super G skiers, land speed record holders, ALL have hyper long vehicles because length = speed.

      That wasn't a product review. A review would have mentioned the company behind this car isn't to be trusted with your dollars. These guys are Grifters (capital "G"...). The car is a mess. The parts are hit and miss (as in you pay for parts and receiving a full order is hit and miss...), the customer support is utterly non-existent, and the contest are a proven scam (nobody has ever been paid out - they have done this before). Raz should focus on companies that aren't ripping off consumers - or do the right thing and put pressure on them to take care of their customers. I am out $100's of dollars with a car that wasn't as advertised, and doesn't have the support behind it to bring it up to spec. If you buy this car, you will find out.....

      Don't bother. Rlaarlo are grifters. Once you get the car (if you are lucky to get it without the company coming back to you asking for more money for shipping AFTER your purchase - NOT A JOKE!!!!!), you will note that it will not steer straight, then you will note that it will not keep from bottoming out, then you will note the stabilizers DO NOT WORK (how can a company install a product that they did not bother testing at least once...??????), the wheels and tires do not handle rated speeds (and they are worthless after a single crash due to their design), the carbon fibre doesn't actually seem to be carbon fibre, the shocks are way too soft, and not properly set up out of the box, etc., etc., etc...
      I'll stick to brand names in the future. You should too.

  • @xXB.FunkXx

    I just wrecked my Rlaarlo this afternoon 😡. I had mamba X8S castle 1717 and graphene 8s battery. It hit a lane reflector at 132mph and went 20 feet in the air and landed in the most plush grass I've ever seen which saved it from total destruction. If Rlaarlo can get me some parts before the qualifying is over I'll give you a run for your money because I could have still done a burnout at 130mph with tons of throttle left.
    Really stable little cars though!!

    Haha. it took me numerous transmission failures and a year to finally get my 2wd slash over 100mph, and you go out and bust 140mph on the first 4s run with this little thing. Lol. This setup is similar to mine, but I'm running a castle 2200kv sensored motor with the MMX8S esc and an EMP cap pack. switched my gearing to 34P/34S 2 days ago and looking for a nice long smooth area to run it and see what she'll do on 6s. Lmfao. I do need to change out my battery connectors since I'm still using the castle 6.5mm plugs. They've worked so far but just old now.
    Btw Raz. For now, I'm using the older Radiolink RC6GS V2 radio (untll I get a better radio), and I had the same issues with my car when I first got everything set up. there were 2 receivers that came with the radio, and one of them acted up like it was possessed. changed out the receiver and used the dual antenna one, and everything's been working great so far. Tbh, I never even looked to see if there's any firmware updates on my radio. Lol

      Rlaarlo is ignoring me too. It is really shitty that none of these UA-cam influencers is addressing the problems with this company. They are all too happy to get free stuff to bump up their views. I have yet to see one of these reviewers to get real about the shit this company is pulling. They didn't even honor the conditions of their last competition with consumers - yet they are now running a second competition on a new vehicle with a cash prize after cheating all their previous customers on their previous competitions.
      I'd respect Raz alot more if he didn't accept this sort of behaviour from the companies he chooses to promote. This company is easily the worst in this respect this year. Tons and tons of people complaining about lack of support, lack of shipped parts and business practices that defy logic. Fly-by-night is all I can think of. Don't waste your money folks.
