Man... That's the truly honest review ever, i think you explain and cover every good or new point done in this car. Your reviews/videos are becoming greater every time you post! Good work!
Hey man thanks for your unboxing and first review of traxxas XO-1 because I am actually finally going to purchase my very first ever traxxas rc product cause I have had my eyes on the XO-1
@rcnightmare I understand. I do audio visual engineering and Im having a production team come over and video XO-1 vs Rustler mamba monster. I loved that you guys do alot of production on your videos and I know I need to setup my production value. ill be waiting for you XO-1 run. I think in the next few weeks ill have the xo-1 doing 110mph+ / gearing, batteries, and a few other things. Thanks again
@RCWinnipeg Exactly. The slower speeds do not provide enough airflow. At such a tall gearing the motor needs to "unload" a bit and get up to speed. The aerodynamics are also opimized for those higher speeds so it will behave better over 50mph.
I miss Brandon's review's, I've been in the hobby since 97 & worked at a Hobby shop in Tulsa & got into racing then. Just loved to hear this guy talk, I guess it's because he reminds me of myself in being very knowledgeable about anything RC. The coolest thing about this car is the ram air & the 100mph out of the box.. Traxxas lol
@@UneducatedEngineer444 No, I never heard what happened to him & his buddy that did videos with him. Probably got burnt out & or got married, that will do it lol
quick thing bout diffusers it doesn't lower pressure it creates pressure under the vehicle by creating a low pressure section of air just behind the vehicle. air wants to equalize so more pressure is created underneath as it tries to suck more air. kinda like next job is to stick a hole in the chassis and put a fan their with a good fast motor to create some super suction.
yay... you guys finally listened to me !!! i asked you guys to do a review on something thats newly released and you guys pulled through... thank you.. but ... better DRIFT IT !!!
Nice dig that you presented this car in blue not red lol. remember who got it first lol. In all i still love your videos/ as always great prensentation
back in 2004 Mission released a 4x4 1/10 scale on road car with a .21 nitro engine and a 3speed auto shift. it went 120mph box stock running 30% nitro. It's still my all time favorite kit.
Brandon, good job as usual. You mentioned RPM telemetry... They don't do it optically on the spur like a reciprocating engine, they can sense it electronically in the ESC. So no outboard sensor like you were expecting. Later guys.
@mickvk Thanks. If this system was sensored I suspect they probably would use the hall effect sensors in the motor for RPM. Instead, they do use an RPM sensor right on the spur gear much like a crank position sensor in a car to read RPM. All other data is calculated based on that sensor and parameters set in the traxxas link application(motor rpm, wheel speed).
WOW!!! By fare the most indepth review. Can't wait for your follow up reviews. I bought a Slash 4x4 Thanks to you guys and loving it. I actually had a Traxxas Radicator back in the 90's and just got back into the hobby. Your vids are helping me so much in getting back in the hobby .Thanks again so much for your great vids. Can't stand some of the Traxxas haters at some local hobby shops. If they only realized how much they keep pushing the limits .This car should shut them up for a bit. Thanks.
@5599AD we usually Ebay them or sell them at the track...it's not often we don't "want" a rig, it's just to get stuff like this we have to make the sacrifice..
@mickvk It's funny you mention it though because I was doing a little "reverse engineering" for cracking 100mph and the Rx does communicate with the Castle ESC but it is not multiplexed to handle data while driving. This platform is just a springboard for their telemetry system. It's to be used in all their current models, nitro included. Take care
this guy really does know things right, despite he is a toy man i was surprised he is well affliated with real race car engineering too and it makes sense.
@Battlerobot2 Traxxas doesn't have a metal gear servo yet. Honestly I've never had an issue on my slash 4x4 with that servo but I'm pretty careful with maintaining my saver.
@santclause1 LOOSLY based of the slash 4x4. New steel axles, revo spec diffs, quad bearing supported center shaft. It's built right. How many problems did you have with the slash anyway?
Great review. bit disapointed that drive line is based on slash 4x4. had nothing but problems with slash/stampede 4x4. think i,ll miss this one and spend my £1000 on HPI 5T. keep these reviews coming because you guy,s have got better and better with every vid you do.
@dtmxer720 I haven't noticed any dynamic feedback on the app but there is high traction/low traciton settings and on the fly steering rate control. Not a bad idea though...
its not necessary. the ipod or iphone is just to view the telemetry (rpm, batt voltage, etc.). ive got a revo 3.3 running on tqi, but i rarely use telemetry, so i just use the transmitter without the apple device
Orgasmic! Thanks for this. It would be a tough call for me between this and a 5ive T as you could take the 5 more places, but I want one of these just for the sheer fun and looks of it :) Would soon leave my lil Losi 8ight and 22 for dead haha
Would be an incredible car if you had a place to run it. Also, the aerodynamics on this car are amazing, like he said. I'd like to see someone get it going 100+ and just go into a huge loop de loop like a rollercoaster or something. That'd be awesome to see.
The iPhone is just to view the speed of the vehicle. I would suggest using it as you would probably know when the motor overheats or the battery voltage is too low.
@SoundsLikeBruce unlike the spartan this system is not new and is made from a name brand company. On top of it they added a capacitor bank to help with the high loads associated with theses speeds. Should be a winner
@GeneticallySuperior1 no worries, no censorship here, agreed, it's tough to see conditions outside of perfect lending themselves to having fun with this kit, but sadly since were in WI it's a waiting game to be sure...we love the engineering tho
Great review! I'd like to ask a couple of questions. Any help would definitely be appreciated. :-) I'm new to the RC world. Is there a magazine or a website for me to learn the basics of the hobby? Also, what is the recommended kit for a newbie like me? Many thanks!
@ashc8907 firstly the app is free....secondly yes, if you want to worry about semantics sure...however...you don''t NEED to buy a single thing...you can borrow an ipod..
This is perfect for the nascar track I have in my backyard.
Oooooooo😮😮😮😮😮😮
Man... That's the truly honest review ever, i think you explain and cover every good or new point done in this car. Your reviews/videos are becoming greater every time you post! Good work!
Really nice RC! I want a nitro version of this! I just want to refill the tank and keep on going. Nice detailed video!

Good videos..vivement les prochaines pour se modèle 👍🥳
what the fuck where the hell did this channel go they haven't updated in a year I would love to see more videos
ya dude agreed!
Oh what about Ultimate rc

@DragRacingLife that is part of it, running videos take like 2 full days work and if something doesn't seem worth it, it typically gets delayed
Becareful if you go too fast you may hit a young kid boy/girl or old person may die... The safe way is to play at the track
it wont kill but it will brake legs easily
Hey man thanks for your unboxing and first review of traxxas XO-1 because I am actually finally going to purchase my very first ever traxxas rc product cause I have had my eyes on the XO-1
how much you are speaking
BEST Open Box review HANDS DOWN. better than Car Action. Nice job.
Spending that Google $$$

who said we are your fan
Yo mama did jk
@348barby 8mm wide yes. I'm sure the 34t option pinion that's included would get it up there....
I would love to put some offroad or dirt tires on that car and shut the guys up at the Slash tracks..
Nathan Daniels Good luck out handling them lol
Flyboy Guru this car costs 789 good luck
in your dreams pal.
@RCGIGSportugal thanks for the kind words, were glad you liked it
There goes your college savings!!

brilliant engineering but when it comes down to it one of the most restrictive and pointless cars ever

How much
Kiramat Jan 893$
Nam Anh An thinks
Kiramat Jan yeah No way.
@0RobotWarsIsTheBest0 no problem, and thanks for the kind words, we love helping people where we can
Yoy dont want half the air to gou want 75% to go over so that the downforce is greater and thats what keeps the car from flipping
vaca 🐮 que se caga
I'm glad you guys got one. Now, we no where to find some quality running vids of the XO-1. Just got to wait for them, lol.
plz free me car
Get a job
Shil Patel You got it bud. I'm sending you a brand new xo1 in the box and a brand new xmaxx because you asked for it.
LOL.
Chris Watson well gimme one too lol
Lol

@higgout thanks a lot for the kind words, it was about 1K after some coupons etc
Yay!!! You get to blow it up like you did with the Spartian boat. :) I love first generation rc cars.

All other data is calculated based on that sensor and parameters set in the traxxas link application(motor rpm, wheel speed).
@rockthecatbox21 Yeah as it reads in the description it's a 1650kv actually. They went for low kv/high gear ratio for those speeds.
I can't wait to get my own Traxxas Black XO-1 to Singapore.
Sweet guys, your beating other reviewers to the punch!
Kool vid I'm getting the xo 1 in a few days this car is awesome
@348barby Yup but they run it 8mm wide so keep that in mind.

Can't wait to see a driving video!
TRAXXAS IS SO GOOD !!!!!!!!!! only got the summit but hope to get that
Wow what a throwback video I was 11 when I seen this
Same man
Can't wait to see this thing in action and I don't care about road cars in RC or real life. But that looks like a nice piece of tech.
@5599AD we usually Ebay them or sell them at the track...it's not often we don't "want" a rig, it's just to get stuff like this we have to make the sacrifice..
Awesome RC. I'll be getting one. I love the radio too. I've been waiting years for a radio with iPhone integration. The possibilities are enormous.
Excellent car
Very informative Unboxing. Cheers.

@german31able it fits pretty tight, they give you cheeseball spacers but they work

Well done Brandon. Great review, very informative. Glad you guys have come along. RCnighmare and URC all the way. Keep it up.
A running video woul b nice ... Sweet car
thank you for making all the vids for us. =D
Awesome! You guys really know your stuff!
XO-1 not bad & its on my mind list now after having traxxas E Revo.
God how I miss you guys.
AHHHHH!! I can't believe you got one!!!!! I'm so jealous. I can't wait for some nice high speed running videos.
Is the Amsoil truck on the shelf a Slash?
That thing is SICK!!!!!

DAM YOU WAS EXCITED TO OPEN THAT BAD BOY :)
very well done! best yet.
What a fantastic vehicle.!!!!!
One more thing, the auto world has it's super cars, it's about time the rc world gets them. I really hope this kind of thing takes off.
@SoundsLikeBruce unlike the spartan this system is not new and is made from a name brand company. On top of it they added a capacitor bank to help with the high loads associated with theses speeds. Should be a winner
@razzellrc baja is likely more usable...but this is pretty sick
@airizonaforu On a slash? The wheelbase on the XO-1 is much longer so not really. Probably easier to just buy a LCG kit made for it.
I remember this guy. Used to work at Hobby town here in Germantown.
What's the huge rc car in the bottom left of the screen? Some one help! That thing looks sick!!!!
That is a GREAT review !!!
@richandiben when has thag ever been the case?
@pope350 the list of things to do with this thing is longer than you might think, once it's in front of you, your mind starts to wander
could you do a unboxing or review on the rustler
Thank you, this video really helped me
Subscribed i've watched u guys for a long time and u guys are awesome so i sub
This is a perfect out of the box review. Thanks man. Can't wait for the running videos and follow up review. How much did this machine set u back?
799 dollars
@GeneticallySuperior1 no worries, no censorship here, agreed, it's tough to see conditions outside of perfect lending themselves to having fun with this kit, but sadly since were in WI it's a waiting game to be sure...we love the engineering tho
Were getting the traxxas x-01,e-maxx,exceed rc madtorque and hpi sprint 2 flux for christmas were spending over $3000.00 for the rc cars.
great presentation,
Fuck man. I remember when this unboxing was posted.
@willinotam you're very welcome
Great review! I'd like to ask a couple of questions. Any help would definitely be appreciated. :-)

Very informative video! Will there be a version that supports Android-phones?
Would love one but I just don’t think I’d be able to drive it much anywhere :) but great video!
