This is pretty sweet.$500 for this fully loaded 1/7 scale crawler goes to show that other manufacturers have been gauging us for years. This really looked like it really performs great out of the box.
Absolutely! It's like finding treasure in a sea of overpriced RCs! 🏴☠ 🍬 And yup, that performance straight out of the box is like hitting the jackpot! 💰
I can tell that your filming / editing methods are changing / evolving as you grow. Even on tik tok. And I absolutely love it, the attention to detail does not go unnoticed. Awesome job man.
A great review as usual. It really performed well. It looks a well designed crawler. One of the criticisms I have seen is the steering radius. I just watched tip from a long time UA-camr. To improve the steering. You have to go into the transmitter menu to servo and change the steering angle from 90 to 180 and then your end points.
Man it’s insane how big your boy is getting! Crazy how the time flies 😂 killer video and review. Seems like a solid truck🤙🏻 Hope you guys are doing well🤘🏻
@@CapeCrawlers that’s so awesome Adam! My 9yr old is getting back into it and starting to do RC stuff for his UA-cam channel. I can’t wait to enjoy it more with him!
Just to be clear, the vehicle as seen performing in the video was $680 ($500 base vehicle, $50 for the Jurassic paint scheme, $50 brass portal covers x 2, and $30 skid guards). Also, I’ve seen some reviews that show this as coming with a 3s battery which it does not (another $60 from Rlaarlo - or better off using your own). Also not clear if Rlaarlo will offer free shipping during the pre-order period. And not that you have to have those things, but if you have your heart set on the specific look and performance of the rc in this video, that’s a more accurate price point.
I wonder if there'll be decent aftermarket wheel/tire options. That 2.5 is a new size, right? I imagine Treal will offer something for it. Maybe some current 2.2" options aren't too far out of scale?
I love your channel and your content. So, please don't take this wrong or targeting you. I personally am so annoyed with these companies providing all the YTers with product samples and not have them ready for sale. This is the four review of the same product but a different color today. Almost like it was planned by the company. 🤔 Ugh, rant over, just a little annoyed i can't buy it. Thanks again for the review, you do a great job and hlad you do.
@@Griffin283 Sure, and what is your point? My beef is clearly with the company, not Cape Crawlers. But you personally felt some offense; I'm not sure why, but clearly, you did. So, thanks for your pointless comment. An embargo being lifted or not does change the fact of my point that the company provided a product for review but doesn't have the product ready to sell. That is my annoyance with the company, not the reviewers or Cape Crawlers, as I stated. I hope you have a nice day.
@@Turtlefry embargo gets lifted, reviews generate interest, orders start processing in a week. I really don’t see why you’re typing paragraphs. If you’re that impatient, grow up👍🏼
@@Griffin283 Alright, bro. Sure, okay. I understand embargos and how reviews can work. Whether you have patience or not still has nothing to do with the point I made. Anyway, if you don't like my "paragraphs, " ignore them and me. That's what grownups do. Also, responding condescendingly and rhetorically to someone you don't know isn't what grownups do. Again, have a nice day. 👍
how old is your son now? my 3 year old son is really into it, I can imagine it being even more fun as they get older with them getting better at driving
Hello, good morning, good afternoon and good night, I have a question about your scx24 gladiator, the one that stretches, beautiful and beautiful, what do you have so that it can stretch like this, I'm doing a project like that, but I would be interested in knowing that you have it so that it can do the beautiful flex, I would be interested in knowing the thoughts you have for him if you have the time to answer me thank you very much bay❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
We took it through deep water and lots of mud with no issues. Didn’t fully submerge it but got close. I can’t say for certain it’s entirely waterproof though
1/10 scale or larger triggers my Vertigo and makes me Throw up. Looks cool. I don't think i would be able to even unbox one let alone Touch it. Weird huh.
My personal opinion, Rlaarlo overpriced this thing. They are pushing into premium market space, and they are releasing a brushed version for $500. Plus all the options that the reviews get with their kits are extra for the buyers. The Brass wheel weights, and other options are included to give the reviewers a better driving experience to help get positive reviews. The customs do not get the same kit the reviews have. This is a $349 RC all day. After all, it's a Rlaarlo.
I think the launch prices are fair for what you get. The full retail prices are out of range in my opinion. I also wish we had gotten bone stock trucks to test
500 for a 1/7th scale is priced wrong? The 1/6 axial is twice the price. This for what it is, is pretty feature rich for the price, it’s not for me I don’t have the trails for a large scale crawler around me 1/10th works best, but I feel the price is reasonable. And they gave the reviewers option parts so consumers can see some of the parts they have available.
@Will-po4gd lol end of the day it's still A Brushed Rlarrlo. Difference of opinion, I guess. The SCX6 and MK07 are not even close out of the box. I'm not saying it's priced too far off from where it should be for a Brushed RC like this but for the price they should of included the same parts that all the testers got. There's a reason why Rlaarlosent them out to testers in this "extra" config. They wanted the best reviews possible to circulate but than someone buys one and they realize what they bought want drive and handle the same way as all the great reviews they watched about it. So now the buyer has to go and spend more money just to make the RC perform like the reviews. To me, I think that's crap. They should send them out to reviewers in the exact configuration as box stock.
Knock off jurassic park, knock off hyrax.. the tire diameter is 5.9” that’s like big 2.2 tires. When I first saw it I was like “ why is everyone so excited over a new bright”.. spending $500 on a “ I don’t want my kid to smash up my scx6” Rc is a bit steep.. And by the time you make it capable of hanging with the scx6 you could just buy a scx6

This video is awesome! Seeing your son so excited also brings out the joy of enjoying this hobby as a family! ❤
Thanks for the opportunity to try out the truck! I still have yet to have a turn with it. I can’t get it away from Axel 😆

This thing is massiv. 😮
Great video 👌

Crazy right?! Fun fact: he did all of the driving in the video. The only time I’ve spent with the truck was on the bench and behind the camera!
@@CapeCrawlers that’s so awesome Adam! My 9yr old is getting back into it and starting to do RC stuff for his UA-cam channel. I can’t wait to enjoy it more with him!
As a trx4 main, you can't go wrong with this for $500. Really a nice rc for the price. Epic cover as usual
I have the rlaarlo terminator in carbon and it’s a great Basher, this looks like a cool rig, hopefully they make aftermarket for it

All good points. And I didn’t receive stock pieces otherwise I would have installed them for the test.
can you put the top and grill led bars on yellow light?
We need an update video on the red cat ridgerock! Yours looks like the best LCG Danche around. Not too many on UA-cam or at all
I wonder if there'll be decent aftermarket wheel/tire options. That 2.5 is a new size, right? I imagine Treal will offer something for it. Maybe some current 2.2" options aren't too far out of scale?
Is it possible to set drag brake sensitivity with radio controller?
You should totally make a scx24 6x6 and test it’s capability!

@@Turtlefry then what is your point? Lil baby is angy he has to wait a week to place an order? Cry more bozo
Cool video as always! Is it the same size as the Mashigan?
The Mashigan is 1/10th scale if I’m not mistaken, nowhere as big as this.
Bigger than the Mashigan by a fair amount
I would love to see this in 1/10 size
how old is your son now? my 3 year old son is really into it, I can imagine it being even more fun as they get older with them getting better at driving
I just got a trx4m high trail and put brass diff covers on it, what mods do you recommend next?
Portal covers/housings
What flex blades do you use for your trx4m black betty? Could you please pin a link? my Injora flex blades are junk.
Adaptive designs on Etsy
@@CapeCrawlers Thanks!
Awesome!

Did you re-fill the shocks?
Not yet
@@CapeCrawlers I’ll be buying one when the 6 days are over. I’ll prob just make sure the shock caps are nice and tight
Is this water proof?
We took it through deep water and lots of mud with no issues. Didn’t fully submerge it but got close. I can’t say for certain it’s entirely waterproof though
How much does he weigh?
Around 16 pounds
Have to admit, very impressive, but at no expense (pun intended lol).
How does this stack up against the TractionHobby Tank 300? Which do you think offers better value if I can only choose one?
Never tried the tank
Which is a better rock crawling performer SCX6 or MK-07?
Scx6
1/10 scale or larger triggers my Vertigo and makes me Throw up. Looks cool. I don't think i would be able to even unbox one let alone Touch it. Weird huh.
I FEEL LIKE YOU RIPPED YOUR INTRO VID FROM SCALE BUILDERS GUILD LOL
😂 I take that as a compliment!
@@CapeCrawlers as i would have he has great videos

Quality on my rlaarlo cars are excellent. Horizon or traxxas would charge $999 for something like this and they would be garbage.
Full operational differentials front and rear, rwd, fwd,4wd completely customizable lighting, you’re insane if you don’t think this is a fair price
