I gave away my nitro 3.3 e revo, HPI nitro drift, tmax nitro to a family man with a bunch of kids. Instantly missed my cars but knew they were happy. Then karma came around and someone randomly gifted me a nitro truck! Crazy how the world works! One day I’ll get another drift rig. Kevins videos always bring up good memories and inspire me drive more. ❤❤❤
I love nitro drifting🔰 My first nitro drifter was a thunder tiger ts4n. That was about 15 years ago. I'm still drifting nitro today but a hobao hyper 10.
Recently acquired the same model and experienced the same problem. Glad I saw this video before spending hours troubleshooting. Issue was with the one-way bearing. Resolved with cleaning with parts cleaner. Cheers!
its only three screws, with a new nitro i normally pull the glow plug put a couple drops of oil down it, cycle it with the glow plug out, put the glow plug back in but dont tighten it all the way. also use the idle screw and make the idle a bit higher so it starts easier. once it starts tighten the glow plug, then proper break in after that.
Mistakes happen in production of everything, i recently bought 3 bounty bars in a pack when I opened one of the individual packs there was nothing but air 😂
There was nothing wrong with the one-way bearing, the carb was still at factory settings and the engine won’t produce enough RPM for the clutch shoes too fully engage, what we saw in the video was actually the clutch shoes slipping on the bell-housing. If anyone needs help with their NITRO weapon, please don’t hesitate to ask👍🏼 PS: I’m doing this simply because I love the hobby and want to help anyone who has a NITRO vehicle to enjoy their’s too🙏
1:32 Kyosho RTR radios are excellent. I have many high end radios and cheap rtr radios. Kyosho RTR and very very good for RTR. They have tons of adjustments and the wheel is great.
Kyosho is one of the most competetive brands in the world. Can't see why they haven't updated their 1/8 GT since it's release. Body is a beauty though.
if it ain't broke... It's nice when a car has parts available. My x-ray NT1 nitro is 2017, so I'm nervous that I won't find parts for that year soon because they update every year... I'd rather just keep it simple and cheaper. The Kyosho is a great car for bashing
@@lawrencewinter Good point with the Xray. They should be able to support parts even for older designs, but it is the same with the most competetive brands. It is all about being on the edge of the latest developement, to be fastest around the track.
I'm a closet nitro fanatic, enjoyed the video. And that you captured both nitro frustration, nitro tax and nitro serenity all together. Good stuff. Boy it's rewarding when you get it running spot on. You gotta work for it though 😆. Nitro heater next time will help that pullstart starting arm.
That why i carry 3-4 extra glow plugs with me, when nitro running, after 2 or 3 tanks i change glow plug. Also Kevin take that pull start off and put a one way bearing so you can start with drill. Much easier 😉👍🏼💯
I didn't know kyosho was still making these. awesome. I usually richen a half turn for starting then retune for high end each time. A bit of a pain at first but makes starting much easier
Love the looks of the Mercedes AMG. The more nitro rc cars u review makes me want one. Just the sound of them is cool doesn't look like it was really fast but does look like it drives nice. Sucks u had to fix it first but looks like it's a blast now. Great video can't wait for the next one.
Have you ever heard of the Schumacher storm 1/10 scale stadium truck 3 speed 70 plus mph and they did a on road car 80mph plus and the traxxas 4 Tec 3.3 70mph plus you don't have any knowledge of rtr nitros or any rc history unless you was still in nappies pmsl gimp
@@johncardwell3119 some salt I see but every nitro I've seen so far needs money poured into it and tuning to even come close to electrics performance yea it's fun but at what cost
@@nickbates2009 I have both you just don't know how to make a nitro engine work properly iam a qualified mechanic electrics have come a long way but how many times do you have to charge your batterys for a good few hours of running electric cars etc all you need with nitro is fuel and batterys for your transmitter and a couple of receiver packs glow plug igniter and just to be safe spare glow plugs and your telling me electric is cheaper I have electric and nitro cars and trucks and boats electric is more expensive I don't see any salt
That is a very cool RC car. I'm definitely going to try nitro some day. I don't know much about nitro, but if it's essentially a two stroke, then they can be very fickle indeed when it comes to starting them.
Iv been waiting for this video since I see that beast at the skatepark. You really can't beat the sound of a nitro changing gears 😍 great video as always Kev 👍
I didn't want to write this in the actual comment so I decided to write it here. so basically my mother was a alcoholic and past away about a week ago... (my dad left) and our family has been struggling lately with money and we have a bit of a depression issue and we don't really know what to do so I just wanted to ask if you could tell everyone to go give there mom and dad a hug and spend time with them cause when there gone like my mother (I am a 11 year old) it will be hard so please go spend some time with them, thanks.
Definitely the best rc channel on UA-cam... 100 percent... I love true reviews and your bashing is by far the hardest around lol... keep up the good work
Can’t beat pre-heating the engine with a dedicated pre-heater or a hair dryer before trying to start it. Warm up, couple of pulls and you’re in business! Said this before on one of your vids
You have the best job I can imagine. Could you please "bash" or maybe "blast" the "Sketer" V3 from Team Corally and maybe vs MAXX 2.0 it would be a great pleasure....
We all know Kev loves his nitro cars! And I must say that the Mercedes body is very handsome looking too! And just as handsome underneath... proper grufty lookin little beast. Faaaarkin laaaarvly! 😆
1st of all you can most definitely tune a Nitro RC Kevin if you can build a Monster truck and do everything else you do. You are alot like myself and great with your hands and I'd be willing to bet can do anything you put your mind to and or learn quickly when interested and even learn just by eye. Also pretty talented TIG welder man Kev as I have 32yrs experience and you even impressed me. I wish more 2 stroke RC's were made as nothing like when they hit their powerband, almost like when turbos spool up on a vehicle and off to the races ya go.
Not drifting….
haha this is the most realistic RC drifting that there is!! It has rubber tires AND a real engine. not like those little toys with plastic wheels! 😂😂
Lmao I thought this guy was a hater before I saw the channel
@KevinTalbot you are a legendary man the one and only miracle worker lol
hello
@@KevinTalbotTV no its actually powersliding, 4wd=powersliding rwd=drifting ;)
My 4yo Son LOVES your channel. Always running around our house yelling “what happened” driving his rc car into walls 🤣😂
Does he says "that's what she said" 😂
Brilliant 👏
Lol. That's hilarious. I've caught myself saying it as well. Sad thing is, I'm an old man.
@@lopiklemoustique5513 no but visiting my sister in VA he picked up the response “your mom” so that’s a new thing now haha
@@rotten2209 yea I say it also ahahhahsha
Ur amazing bro bringing so much life back into the rc hobby over the past few years u are a hero my guy

Watching your video everytime i remember old me with my rc car 🤙
Actually think this is one of my favourite looking cars!

Love your nitro videos

Always happy when I see you have posted a new video
Awesome, made me want a nitro for the first time in a decade
Use a heat gun to preheat the motor and loosen it up before starting or buy an engine warmer
Uffff...uffff... Que cochasaso!!!
First
congratulations
Hi
Isn’t Candis with joe right now
At the end when u were drifting, the exhaust smoke made it look like tire smoke 😂
Love it when a two speed transmission kicks out when it smashes from first to second gear...
Awesome Kevin!
Hello from bowen Queensland Australia...
its only three screws, with a new nitro i normally pull the glow plug put a couple drops of oil down it, cycle it with the glow plug out, put the glow plug back in but dont tighten it all the way. also use the idle screw and make the idle a bit higher so it starts easier. once it starts tighten the glow plug, then proper break in after that.
Looked and sounded great when it was running. But pretty poor having a bearing issue when it was fresh out the box
Mistakes happen in production of everything, i recently bought 3 bounty bars in a pack when I opened one of the individual packs there was nothing but air 😂

What what is actually the issue with this car? I just bought one used and it’s doing the same thing?

MR KEV.....IM ALWAYS RIDIN ABOUT UR LACK OF NITRO BUT NICE TO SEE YOU DOIN MORE NITRO STUFF MAN P.S SORRY FOR ALL CAPS
Be waiting for this vid love rc cars
Man love nitro!!!!!
Keep up the nitro videos kev
Kyosho is one of the most competetive brands in the world. Can't see why they haven't updated their 1/8 GT since it's release. Body is a beauty though.
Funny kyosho is the reason I dont seemuch point in a nitro. But that was back in the nicd MSC brush motor days

I only drive kyosho, still parts avaiable for my old R4 2011 and new updates from last year.
you finally broke in the motor instead of ripping it lol love to see it
You always put me in a happy mood. Love your work Kev
Hey Kevin can’t wait till the monster truck is finished I got a helicopter like yours and I love your videos we love u your my favorite youtuber :)
My favorite part about kevs vids is when he says it’s Christmas everyday
Nitros..
"Fun when they're working"
Loved the ending.
I've owned the Electric Demon one for about a year now and it's completely brilliant. Running 6s is the sweet spot.
Epic nitro car. And yeah it took me a couple years to get the tuning down on nitros. Experience is everything with tuning
You need to get a 3D printer and print parts for your rc
Yes I have one they are handy
I have 2 of them 😸
How strong are they compared to regular parts? Do I need to get some specific type of filament?
@@willng34 depends on the infill% and the type of filament
@@willng34 they can be and more
I never knew anything about rc cars but since I started watching your videos I think I'm understanding it well now

I'm sure Dimitri Nitro gang will be so proud of you with this video bro lol you the man Kev!
I didn't know kyosho was still making these. awesome. I usually richen a half turn for starting then retune for high end each time. A bit of a pain at first but makes starting much easier
Yessir watching this instead of studying for midterms!
Never thought I'd get a Nitro RC.. But damn you. Now I'm getting on. Lol.
Love the nitro drifting! The exhaust smoke just looks like tire smoke! Epic!!!

Don't think I've seen a fast nitro out the box yet

Worlds fastest nitro car Kev? Maybe a future project with Mick as tech support?
That is a very cool RC car. I'm definitely going to try nitro some day.
I don't know much about nitro, but if it's essentially a two stroke, then they can be very fickle indeed when it comes to starting them.
Incredible sound when it changes gear
We expect a big burnout next video to beat this smoke :D
yup
Heat up the engine with a blow dryer or heat gun it will be easier to pull. New engines have a tight pinch
I will always be a nitro dude. Love my electrics, but they don't sound or rip like a nitro. Always gets to me! LOL.
I thought touring cars were boring..? Absolutely NOT IF there are NITRO! Thumbs up!
Hi
Absolutely love ur page I’m disabled with muscular dystrophy an cerebral palsy n love the rc hobby
I remember when RC drift cars first started I had a nitro car and bought drifting wheels and started drifting my nitro RC car,it was a lot of fun.
Iv been waiting for this video since I see that beast at the skatepark. You really can't beat the sound of a nitro changing gears 😍 great video as always Kev 👍
Loved your car with scooter wheels mod video. Also can not wait for the next installment of the Worlds Fastest Project RC Car.
Nitro gas engines have a smell that always brings back childhood memories!
The Mercedes AMG GT-3 race track edition,hmm pretty cool!
Liking that new smoke machine for the cars!
Thid Mercedes body just looks amazing.
Lol the nitro smoke makes it look like it's actually smoking the tires
if you warm the engine up it will start right up nitros dont start right up in the cold car looks good
You need to build a wind tunnel, for the 203mph car, with the smoke machine!!
I’ve been watching your videos for about like three months now and I already love them keep doing what you’re doing
Nitro is a pain in the ass, hardly ever starts, hours of tuning involved, but holy sht it's the best 😍😍😍
When the kyosho is running good it really humms great vid kev
hey Kev love the vid!
I didn't want to write this in the actual comment so I decided to write it here. so basically my mother was a alcoholic and past away about a week ago...

It's not Traxxas... Kyosho is by far the best RC brand in the world! 🤘🏻
How good is Mick! The nitro whisperer! 😎👌
You got to be one of the best RC drivers 🙏
Definitely the best rc channel on UA-cam... 100 percent... I love true reviews and your bashing is by far the hardest around lol... keep up the good work
The best thing to do is take a heat gun and warm the motor up before trying to start it to about 110 degrees
Andy makes a good, improvised portable drift track huh?! Better than a figure of 8 , He is a figure of 32! Wicked. Go Andy the Landy!
I've been so excited for this video ever since you showed it in your live
It's great fun seeing you struggle with nitro !!!
Absolutely epic video!!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥nitro rips!!!!!💯and sounds amazing 🤤……I am a huge fan!!!!
Christmas Everyday never gets old
Love the sound & smell of NITRO...
THAT THING IS ABSOLUTELY EPIC
kev do a video series about rc tips for beginners explaning basics of rc which would be epic
That thing rips looks like a blast
Hey. Wait a minute. Its not morning. We got blessed with a night video!!
Can’t beat pre-heating the engine with a dedicated pre-heater or a hair dryer before trying to start it. Warm up, couple of pulls and you’re in business! Said this before on one of your vids
@RcLoko 🤣 true
After watching the video, I want to have an engine rc. The engine sound is so good.😄😄😄
3:00 love the wind tunnel smoke test ,
Put some bathroom scales underneath and a massive fan in front and see how much downforce it has 😂
Kev love your video and nitro and please get an ecx amp crush and convert it to nitro
This is what nitro RCs should be.
Dude the AMG GTS and GT3 are my fav cars ever designed. Such a sick beast of a nitro! Absolutely epic
Love theses nitro videos kev!
I loved the gear change. It sounded really cool.
You have the best job I can imagine. Could you please "bash" or maybe "blast" the "Sketer" V3 from Team Corally and maybe vs MAXX 2.0 it would be a great pleasure....
U have got me back into RC cars u are a legend
One of my favorite vids from you kev
Ce bolide ! En drift cat en plus ça m'a redonné envie d'en refaire 😍
Having fun is what it's all about dude . hope your well
Talbot makes y day whenever he post
oh yeah kyosho makes like the best 1/18 scale model cars
We all know Kev loves his nitro cars! And I must say that the Mercedes body is very handsome looking too! And just as handsome underneath... proper grufty lookin little beast. Faaaarkin laaaarvly! 😆
