What's there to be impressed about? You state in your video that the bike was likely meant to be driven on an 1/8th scale track, but all I see you and the others doing is bashing it in a big area with some jumps with an 1/8th scale track in the background. Put it on the track, with other bikes, put up or shut up. This video shows and proves nothing, except that it will break, which again leaves me questioning, did Losi cut corners again and use crappy material. How long until the servo dies and the ESC burns up? This video also shows that this thing more than likely has a crappy turning radius and will need a lot of room to run. I'm also pretty positive that Losi knew this would be primarily bashed and I'm sure they built it with that in mind, so saying that taking it to a BMX track was going above and beyond, GTFOH.

There is another thing Losi failed miserably at with this release. No pink or purple bike and no option for a female rider. Is Losi saying only dudes like RC and only dudes ride dirtbikes? Missed opportunity. I'm sure that woman on the Saylor channel would have been over the moon if she received a bike with a female rider.

Greg, you just confirmed anyone's purchase that was on the fence with one of these. Seeing it going from one hand to the next and the fact it was still running well even after the break speaks volumes.

I love their excitement after driving it and seeing it in action. Not everyday something impresses Chris.

Without knowing the price points, after watching the Losi "in depth" release with Brian and Frank, I was assuming this would be in the $700-$900 range. The amount of ground-up engineering and design work that went into this product is astounding. And to make it look as realistic as it does is next level. IMO it is an absolute steal for how it's priced.

I cant wait for mine to come ... thanks for the great updates

I commented in the last video , and said this will be the hottest selling RC this year. You commented back that the shop owner said he would have to order more . Now, I know what you meant. As for doing that plate in aluminum, in the same crash, other parts will break or bend. There is a limit to any RC cars durability, and you guys were launching it pretty hard. As for the price, I'm fine with it. Lots of R and D went into it. I'll be ordering one, after the first run, I never buy first run products.

That was very cool to see that you were at RC Madness with Tyler and Chris!

After seeing this video and hearing the guys reaction to it I am glad I put one on order. The breakage does look to be what could an issue but I do think there will be a lot of aftermarket support for this and we'll see a good fix for it within the first 6 months to a year. I am still not happy with the price point but after seeing the performance I feel a little better about it. Once all of the upgrades and mods are fully released I think this is going to be an RC game changer.

great job! I love handing new releases to people and letting them play with it. on the ifs I actually was like 5th to actually drive it! I cant wait to get one of these in our hands and hand them off to the guys at our local 1/8 track!

I am going to wait a year or so for the bugs to be fixed. The only rtr basher vehicle that Losi released that is still in production is the LMT. For some reason rc enthusiast normally outgrew their kits, stopped buying their line up, and Losi ended up discontinuing them. I hope this bike takes off just like the LMT. Traxxas, Kyosho, and Tamiya many of their original vehicles are still a hit and I don't see that stopping anytime soon.

Once this bike gets into more people’s hands I imagine a whole plethora of aftermarket aluminum parts getting made. I’m willing to bet someone will make something less bulky for those side lean bars that still works just as well. Great looking and functioning RC!!!

Great coverage Greg. This another one of those rc that you gotta have two!. Is always more fun interacting with someone else. One gets old after a while. But how cool would this look next to a Baja specially if is a two stroke, I bet the sound of the Baja would give it a more realistic action. 👍

I think the part that broke saved the fork or chassis and in a way, is the sacrificial part. There’s always a need for sacrificial parts when high impact crashes are expected. In that respect, I wouldn’t upgrade that part to an aluminum because if you think about how much force there was on the impact from the crash, you would expect something to break or bend. If that piece broke during “normal” landing, then I would call into question the durability, but in the circumstance it broke, it looks to me that it actually did its job, which meant you could continue to drive it. As far as the spokes, it is also not surprising that they were bent. I actually expected them to break seeing the jumps you were on. I do wonder how much the bent spokes would affect the trueness of the wheel and how it would impact the handling when the wheel wobbles?

@rcdriver

Yup, there’s all sorts of ways to look at it. What I think everyone can take away from the video is how well built this product is and the value you get. The wheels still actually runs true to the point there isn’t a wobble issue while driving. I have no plans to change the wheel until I get some of the option tires to try.
