So glad it made it home in 1 piece(tire scuffs excluded). 86 MPH is amazing especially for your first outing. Mother Nature is jealous so she pissed on the parade. Awsome build can't wait for future speed runs!!
Have one crawler with all smart stuff. I am slowly converting all my cars to the smart system. Redoing my tc5 and putting a smart setup in it. Then on to the big cars. Spektrum hit the ball out of the park with this system. You can upgrade firmware on batteries, esc, and controller. It’s a win win. Nothing ever gets truly out of date.
Yeah, it's rarely are area where I do anything that I feel is video worthy. Normally I'm just screwing around if anything. Had a lot of fun with this one!
To me, you made this car looks AMAZINGLY ATTRACTIVE. From chassis to body, this is so realistic, so BEAUTIFUL……. I wasn’t interested by this model, the Infraction, but you’ve totally changed my mind !!!! Big salut 🫡 from France ViNZ.
39 tooth spool should put you in the triple digits, just make sure your throttle pull is slow and gradual the esc will hit cut off if you pull to quick. Make sure the rear suspesion is stiff.
Hats off to Moosejaw for that insanely good-looking paintjob. WIng and splitter look amazing as well. With the ESC programmer, there should be a port on the power button that you can plug it into as well for less futzing around. There's a rubber plug to keep moisture and dust out of it. I've used it for programming the spektrum ESCs in my rigs.
I looked on the power button for it as well but unfortunately it wasn't found on this one. This mold is different than other Hobbywing based ESC's because it hows the screw hole.
Awesome video definitely sold me on the gtr body been thinking about getting one. Look into GRP tires I been using them for years. And look at adding a bigger cap pack.
This is is sweet! I seriously need to find someone that can paint bodies like that. I’ve been wanting to put the GTR body on my Infraction. Only thing holding me back is that I won’t be able to come up with such a nice paint job.
As it started to rain and you continued to make passes, I cringed expecting to hear that all to familiar sound of lexan on pavement. Such a good looking RC, I dont want to see it get damaged lol
@@HarleyDesignsInc "Look, that's your third set today. I mean, them tires ain't cheap." 😁 yeah, fo sho don't send me after ice cream or a wedding cake in it bwaahaahaa 🤘🍻🤘
I think horizon hobby should focus more on making more bodies and pre painted bodies options for bashers that are not limited Edition. I dont like spektrum but i would buy this body for sure.
You can also program the ESC from the radio as long as you have the ones that says smart and updated. This is the link to show everything you need to know on how to do it. ua-cam.com/video/FVHoLSV4VX4/v-deo.html
Get some better batteries if you want to push it. Leave those brakes soft. Strong brakes will wreck you. Car looks awesome. Famous last words "just one more" 🤣
Kindly did you tried the ABS because I have same radio and I used the ABS with different set ups but every now and then the brakes fails and most of the time I ended up crashing the car because it could not go round or stop so it hits the curb or the wall at high speeds!
I went with zee Batteries 3s 5500 mah 120c and isdt charger When I 1st bought my Typhoon 3S i bought a spektrum gen . 2 charger and two battery's and they lasted a week i know mostly likely bought bad batteries but when I went to buy knew ones and bigger charger so i can charger two at a time they want almost $ 600 Canadian for it so way to expensive when you're paying almost a $1000 for 1 of these arrma rtr up here 🤯
⚡️⚡️⚡️In my experience & many many other peoples experiences with Spektrum “smart battery technology” is that the technology itself actually kills the spektrum batteries. I have multiple Spektrum Smart Batteries purchased for a community project that literally killed themselves due to their “smart technology”. They forced themselves into storage mode which drains the battery to a storage voltage & then they continue to drain themselves until they are completely empty & can no longer take a charge or get recognised by the voltage checker or the smart charger. Resulting in a personal loss of hundreds of pounds £. I purchased about 10 spektrum smart batteries for & 2 smart chargers & now I’m down to 6 batteries.
That is something I will continue to monitor over time. I have a few other Spektrum smart packs that so far have held up for me but it's always interesting to hear others experience with them.
@@HarleyDesignsInc I hope they hold up for you 🤞🏻. I turned the automatic storage feature off to see it that will help save the remaining 6 battery packs. I would send them back but I ordered 2 charger bundles which came with 4 batteries & I purchased 6 more separate batteries because you are only allowed to order 2 batteries per delivery. I had to order them from multiple stores online just so I’d have them ready for a community project. I still had to wait over 6 months for a Senton & Vorteks too. They are ALL except for 1, are still brand new never used batteries. The problem is that all of the batteries are all exactly the same without any way of knowing what store they came from. Any ideas would be appreciated greatly 🙏🏻.
Lets see some high speed runs on dirt road... or football field... there ya go... highest speed.. goal post to goal post... Or one lap around the posts... Turf is cheating...
Sigh... It's all great but that dusty old firma 150 is just ugh.. fine for your purposes I'm sure and hope you enjoyed it but as a speed freak I'm not a fan of that esc . Sweet build otherwise bro
Spektrum eco system is a hot mess. Specially their escs and motors who are rebranded hobbywing but at a cheaper manufacturing price. The baterries are so expensive. If they had a warranty for life maybe the price would justify paying 3-4 times more than other brands that are just as good or better...
Those batteries are so lackluster its not even funny, they're almost as bad as the Traxxas cells. Friends don't let friends buy Horizon rebrand electronics.
It's all about the newbie people who use Traxxas batteries have np with thier electronics I'm sure it be same with spectrum, I have fried my 6s escs but 4s ones holding up
Thanks for working with us Josh! Great video!
My pleasure, super fun project and I've got more to learn on the Smart system! Time to update the radio for more control.
I finally got a DX5, why did I wait so long. Dang. I am loving it.
Pretty crazy how easy these cars will do mid 80’s. And to think of all the effort we put into the VS4-10!
It's got to be the size :) Size matters from what I'm told.
Really cool seeing you mess with something besides crawlers or 3 wheelers
The facelift looks incredible, great job bringing it all together. Always raising the bar love this channel.
That car is bad ass

It's really awesome you're doing this now. I just got a V2 Infraction last week and looking at all this stuff.
Car looks great. Nice work to the painter. Great job giving the painter recognition...
Moosejaw does a great job painting and helping moderate the channel, he's a good friend.
That really is a nice setup and the GTR body just makes it that much more appealing. Hard to resist the infraction in this form.
I still like the truck... but it doesn't look half this good!
@@HarleyDesignsInc all I can say is if someone made a 77 trans am body for the infraction, I would need to make some room

Just watched all the Inburno videos. And I was hoping to see your Infraction. Thanks for everything you do.

Awesome video my man thanks a ton

Saw my friends Felony running for the first time yesterday. Even out of the box its ridiculous. Amazing Rc.
So crazy how good they are out of the box.
Get you some perfect pass parts and servo
Nice update to the Infraction.
That was cool. Thanks for posting.
Damnit Josh! Now I may have to build one of these. That GTR body makes that chassis way more desirable to me.
I can't believe how much better it looks like this! I've always liked the car but this really steps it up.
Man that car is sick!! I have been wanting a Infraction since they came out. Have a couple of 6s Arrma's but that's next level. 🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁.
That body is sick.
That thing looks so good
Patiently waiting for speed run 2.0. That was awesome 👏🏼.
It really makes me want to buy some more parts! Speed is fun!
Really nice work! That car is spectacular. Lovin the livery
I do not need an Infraction... I do not need an Infraction...I really want an Infraction...
Finally we see it in action. Great run. 90 should be easy.
I feel like 90 is possible too! Maybe some light weight drivetrain components, a center spool and more?
86 for a first run seems good to me! Pretty amazing for right out of the "box" electronics.
Pretty sick Josh.😁
Thanks! Its wild how much different the whole car looks with the body and underbody additions!
That looks so much fun. Now I’m thinking of buying one. 😂
That thing sounds like a freaking jet.
Great design. Really like the Look of the truck.
Awesome video definitely sold me on the gtr body been thinking about getting one. Look into GRP tires I been using them for years. And look at adding a bigger cap pack.
That's one fast crawler! 😉 Great job Josh, clean build, looks amazing! I'm sure that thing has a lot more in it! 👍
Wow nice run man!!
Thanks Nick, lots of fun was had even though the rain threatened me.
Wow, i own a couple of the vendettas, both equipped with different body’s. A Nissan Z and a mustang. This thing rips.
Great looking body 👍
Thanks! Moosejaw did a great job of taking the photo I gave him and turning it into reality.
Car looks awesome, great job
Thanks, I love the look!
Great looking car Josh. I would be tempted to keep it on the shelf.
It was scary to run for the first time! It left some mark on the the fenders that I'm going to have to protect from the inside.
Looks awesome. If you upgrade the firmware on your radio and esc you can adjust everything without the programmer.
I'll get on that ASAP!
I meant to say you can adjust everything from the radio in the telemetry menu, but I think you understood that.
Nice to see you using a good radio brand.
I'm giving you a virtual finger wag.
@@HarleyDesignsInc I'm hurt, so hurt!
As going straight works, it's time for making turns. 😉😁
I’m definitely less good at that 😂😂
@@HarleyDesignsInc it's well worth adding to the driving toolbox. Track racing is so much fun. A tie is not manatory, no worries. 😂
Damn that looks GOOD!
Thanks to AI and Moosejaw!
This is is sweet! I seriously need to find someone that can paint bodies like that. I’ve been wanting to put the GTR body on my Infraction. Only thing holding me back is that I won’t be able to come up with such a nice paint job.
Now there’s a pre-painted one. Just pre-ordered.
I like that big stupid wing and splitter lol
Nice paint job
As it started to rain and you continued to make passes, I cringed expecting to hear that all to familiar sound of lexan on pavement. Such a good looking RC, I dont want to see it get damaged lol
Cool build
It was a fun update to the styling. And so easy!
@@HarleyDesignsInc I sent you a email through your website on some CAD info
Looks good You should paint the wing standoffs black
That body is sick tho
Gorgeous rig man, what a stunner:)
DX5 Pro? I bet your Futaba isn’t happy with you. 😂
Looks great 🍺
The Spektrum radio has its voltage alarm set too high stock. You can change that in the telemetry menu.
The car looks awesome, I'd go get groceries in it irl 🤘y'all have a badass day🤘🍻🤘
I think all my items would be melted by the time I decided to finally go home after driving it!
@@HarleyDesignsInc "Look, that's your third set today. I mean, them tires ain't cheap." 😁 yeah, fo sho don't send me after ice cream or a wedding cake in it bwaahaahaa 🤘🍻🤘
This is the setup i been looking for the infraction chassis this jdm body
Could the warnings have anything to do with the setting you jacked up some?
I think horizon hobby should focus more on making more bodies and pre painted bodies options for bashers that are not limited Edition. I dont like spektrum but i would buy this body for sure.
I saw you with it at KNk just after you got it.
Crazy how time flies isn't it! That was a great trip, super fun time.
@@HarleyDesignsInc you signed a blue body for me there. I still have it. A day of fun I’ll never forget.

Nice!
Ripple killer
Very good 👍 upgrade and how about felony upgrade??
I never took off the factory screen plastic on my dx5r pro lol maybe it's time 😜 sick build!
Kindly where can I find instructions how to add the telemetry system on some my cars?
Get some better batteries if you want to push it. Leave those brakes soft. Strong brakes will wreck you. Car looks awesome. Famous last words "just one more" 🤣
I can definitely see the risk in the higher braking value, but right now I have almost no noticeable brakes and it is terrifying! :)
Can you recommend any grippier tires for this car?? like foam or something?? thanks!
Why aim for 90 when 100 is a nice round triple digit lol but damn there goes the credit card bill going down when I order a infraction…
Kindly did you tried the ABS because I have same radio and I used the ABS with different set ups but every now and then the brakes fails and most of the time I ended up crashing the car because it could not go round or stop so it hits the curb or the wall at high speeds!
Wooohooo over 85 and didn't hit your ankle.. but even I want to know why you are getting the battery alarm.
🤘💪✌️

Them tires are going to blow on you at 100mph
Sounds like it would make for a good video 😁

Why can’t you show us changing all that stuff out instead of just talking about it?

Title miss leading lol
I should have shown the AI process for the livery design more, it was amazingly fun to experiment with. I'll cover it more in episode 2.
I.will copie for mine lol sorry man but will do instead of orange mine will be red
What should you learn from putting carbon on a offroad basher? Nice toy, but i see no purpose.
You know these are ON-Road cars right? It’s pretty common to swap to full carbon chassis as trying to approach higher speeds even.
