Great video... Love the LMT, might have to get one. The look on your face when you got your first Patreon was just awesome. I started a Patreon last week as well, your right, it cost a ton of money monthly and time as well to do these videos, BUT it's mind blowing when someone decides to support your content because as a creator that feels really special, we love this hobby and putting out stuff for others to enjoy, and it's so rewarding when someone does not just give a 👍 (which is cool) but decides to give $$$ Money, wow that's awesome and was cool to see your reaction of gratitude, because that's simply what it is, awe and gratitude! Appreciate your stuff brother

Love your videos! I really appreciate the in-depth unboxing and reviewing of the RC'S and also how you have a proper yard to run in! So many reviews out there just seem like commercials or advertisements but yours are genuine and it's easy to tell when you actually like something!

I'm glad I'm not the only one with the decals off center. Messing with my OCD. Lol. I don't actually have OCD, but I do like having a balance in most cases. I also agree with the body clips, but haven't yet heard of them being a problem. Just a side note and probably isn't a big deal, but Losi recommends running a 50c minimum lipo with these trucks. Not sure why or if it's just one of those little "ohh you didn't use what we recommended, so we can't warranty it" kind of things, but there may actually be a reason with this RC. I'm no expert and I'm not even sure, but I have witnessed certain circumstances where the recommendation actually plays a significant role. As I said in your other video, I will be using Smart 2s batteries but are already 50c.
