      Wish i had a track like that one in my state❤️Exactly the atmosphere that turned me off to to racing and eventually RC cars all together. Nothing funner than going to a track and getting treated like crap because you dont run what the locals run or happen to be new to racing 😒 got into helicopters and airplanes a few years ago and gotta say its a lot more relaxing and friendly.

      @@Offical_KingCorgiGaming the closest track I have to me is kind of in an "unsavory" part of town. And it sucks because all the bad people race and bet money on it all the time.. BIG money :p and it doesn't give people like me or even young kids a chance to be able to race around a track. :/ They make a big deal out of it like it's a public track you see.. but I have to pay one of the hoodlums to be able to race on it. Even if you go there early. In the morning and no one is there. If the gangs catch you. They will demand money and if. You don't have it they will either take your car.. if it's nice... Or smash it. I've seen it happen... The city police has been notified COUNTLESS times. But they seem to want nothing to do with it... Oh well.. I guess I can go around in a small circle in my backyard. Or up and down my street. With hellacious potholes... If I ever get a house with some. Land I'm gonna build a super nice RC truck. And it's gonna be free for anyone. And gambling in the race will be a no no.. ALL FOR FUN ;) ;)

    For those watching, the LC10B5-that's their "race version" of a 1/10 buggy. The PGT-1 (shown in this video) is more for bashing. Obs, who cares, and you can race both-but, being a super fan of LC Racing, I thought it was worth mentioning. Also, the LC10B5 is a kit that needs to be built vs. the PGT-1 will come pre-built. The PGT-1 comes with a slipper clutch and is mostly plastic while the LC10B5 comes with a center diff and comes with tons of carbon fiber. As Kevin would say-that's enough techno babble.

    Hands down greatest racing video. Seeing the smile on stempies face though out the race is priceless. Driving his broken car around the track was epic and watching Ken driving, the way over powered mini, just had me laughing out loud. . That's the way it was when I joined the hobby back in the 80's. It was all about fun and making friends that have the same interest, and not taking yourself so seriously that you forget these are just very expensive toys. I enjoy your channel tremendously and would fly across the pond to enjoy a day of racing FUN.

    Kev, I gotta be honest here……and this is a big statement…. but this is your absolute best episode yet in my opinion!!! Just knowing that a racing club exists where people actually smile while inside the building let alone racing has gotten me excited again. Now I just need to find a track remotely close!! That 1:18 Losi was a rocket ship! One of the comments here said he put a 3S setup in his….. You need to do that please!!!!

I'm liking this long clip of you and your Mates just having Fun at the RC Club. That's what it's about. I'm a Noob, a couple new Mini Zs I just started to wrench with, and haven't even decided on a bigger scale rig yet because I'm still doing the research. And you are helping me out an awful lot.

    The one thing I tell newbies to rc racing is that you dont need the latest and greatest to get started. If you come with a basic rtr buggy, that's cool. If you enjoy racing you can upgrade later to something better. Hell, I still race my old Team Associated B5M on club days and it still holds it's own against newer buggies.

    Hi Kev it's nice to finally see a Losi Mini model on your channel. I suggest you could also get the Mini-B and race it against the Mini-T.
    Both models got brushed and brushless setups, I think you're gonna have a good time with those.
    Also you can also get the Mini-B pro roller version and make it your 1/16 project racer. Cheers.

  • @Luke-en2tk
    @Luke-en2tk 2 роки тому +6

    The main difference with a digital radio is the ability to set steering end points and overall steering and you can also make the car easy to drive by setting steering exponential/steering curve. A high end radio is as much about the feel of it rather than how responsive it is. This year I've just changed from a normal digital servo to a brushless servo and it has again made the car easier to drive, seems to track straighter.

    • @ruleslawyer
      @ruleslawyer 2 роки тому +1

      The higher end radios do have significantly better latency. You don't need the M17 to get that, but I could feel the difference between a radio link and sanwa and testing I've seen confirms its real.

    • @anthonyrawsthorne656
      @anthonyrawsthorne656 2 роки тому

      Went from a cheaper end radio (Core Rc) to a Sanwa, and needed to learn again, the response time is instant with the sanwa, and kept turning in too early. Couple of days getting used to it, then start altering settings.

  • @mgers75
    @mgers75 2 роки тому +15

    One of great things about the expensive top-of-line Sanwa or Futaba radios is you can tune the servo speeds and feels to make them easier to drive. Most pro racers are turning down the servo speed 10-20% when racing with the ultra-fast servos on the carpet. Takes away some twitchiness and makes it easier to just push the car hard and get consistent fast laps with fewer mistakes. Slower is faster is more than a stupid racing cliche.

    Cheap out on your electronics starting out, but get a name brand kit. The issue with weird off brand chassis is that parts support is horrible. You also have a lot harder time getting help with setup at the track. Running the same chassis as the fast guys you usually will help you set up your car. To be clear, the name brand kit isn't about going faster, its not having a frustrating experience and a broken car that ends up sitting on the shelf.

    You know, these aren't too bad considering. Even the Re re Ultima spits the back hinge pins out on high grip like carpet. A British company makes solid metal retainers for the Ultima to help with it. Proper tyres on these things, then maybe tuning the expo or end points and such, might help with the steering. Plus some tuning of the suspension. They might be a good level entry car to get into racing??

    Losi mini-t is ace. My son has the brushed and I have the brushless. It has dual rates so you can speed them up even more than they come stock!
