So many factors to consider.. landing on concrete and blaming the car is not the way to do it and is one way to ruin a brands reputation forever. Those videos get views which is why they are done and no other reason. I stopped all that last year and won’t be returning to a skatepark any time soon. Obviously people know who to watch if that’s what they are into and I think it’s more appealing to the younger generation.

I liked the song at the end so much, I had to look it up. NightCap - Be Strong. It gets even better!

You know it actually reminds me of my old maverick vader xb (redcat rampage xbe) that was also a buggy that was on the small side of 5th (closer to 6th) it was also 6s and was similarly quick. Full metal chassis and metal upper plate. Slightly different design but i like the direction.

It will be interesting to take it out in warm weather. I think it would definitely need a gear change to reach the high speed, It's always cool to see how the tires balloon on the onboard camera shots. You might've mentioned this in the first video. I wondered where the name comes from. According to Google it's of Japanese origin. It means "swift like a wind" and is a girl's name.

@tomley rc. Maybe you can explain this to me but why don’t people use 5s. Or you can’t mix 2-3s

This is a completely newb question,do RC cars come with batterys e.g.4s/6s or do u have to supply ur own,)??

16t pinion would sort it perhaps. Guessing its a 5mm shaft?

To me without delving intro he tech specs too deeply. It seems to be a Kronos XTR with Buggy Tyres, and a bigger body shell & The Kuron 825 rtr gear installed

those drivebys on 4s remind me of a bus I'm trying to catch... mind you, having said that, I've recently realised I can't judge speed for sh*t.. I was convinced my crawler was doing 20mph in high gear.. stuck a GPS on it and BLAMMO, 11 Kmh.. basically 1/3 of what I thought

Wasn't the ftx outlaw you did the brushless swap on that was faster

Maybe if you open the DRS on the rear wing it might go faster. 🏎️

Looks like a really nice skatepark tbh. But yeah, just not for jumping rc cars 😁

I put a brushless system in my ftx comet and that does 30mph

2:10 temp definitely makes a difference. The air is denser at colder temps which creates more wind resistance. In internal combustion engines it kind of negates itself as the denser air = more resistance it also means more HP and better performance out of the engine.

Skateparks = RC graveyards in my humble opinion

@ Tomley - Given that this buggy is a full 680g lighter than the Kronos XTR, it's safe to assume that given the same electronics, battery and ratios/rollout etc - it will accelerate quicker and hit higher top speeds than the Kronos. Using the exact setup you have there on my Kronos XTR - 825 motor on 6S - mine hit 62 mph and 0-60mph in 4.2 secs. This was during the summer and the track temp was 30°C, using stock pinion and spur. I conclude that Corally's box claim is definitely in the ballpark and fair. The reasons they state for different results are justified, as your effort amply demonstrates! Your results were on the slow side of normal though. Are you sure those cells are OK? Or is your ESC set to low or something? 🤔 Very odd otherwise.

First of all I love your content. I find it unfair for everyone to bash on speed claims when every battery gives different performance so unless you have a speed run battery then you can’t say it doesn’t do the claimed speeds on the box because you’re using a generic battery not up the task. A high performance battery heated up or just on a warm day would get very close to 60

@TomleyRC

Yes, it would get very close to 60... however, that's still 5mph of the box speed. And this 6s Lipos] I used on my FTX DR8 which claims 60mph on the box.. I got 57mph in the winter, and 61mph in the Summer.. so the 6s is a capable lipo

The 6s Voltz 4800mAh 50c Lipo on paper can deliver 240Amps.. The Kuron Motor has a max continuous current of 120A, so the Voltz lipo would have to be only 50% efficient to max out the motor.

Take yours out the box and tell me where the ‘speed gears’ are. You may be disappointed to find that it doesn’t come with any other gearing 👍

love the pragmatic review. but I do agree. don't put speed on the box unless when you take out of the box it comes close to that speed under certain conditions. i.e will do x amount of speed in the temp range of 5 degrees on a dry tarmac. otherwise it leave the door wide open for those who want to blame the equipment rather the conditions is driven in and driving skills + battery efficiencies.

They should put 50mph on the box then when it does 55 you are over performing. Like Scotty telling Kirk it will take 4hrs to repair the warp engines and does ti in 3
