Tip for air control - brakes to drop the nose, throttle to raise it. It's more effective with 4wd but you still have some air control with 2wd. With 4wd you can steer the front wheels to roll it side to side and pull whips and stuff. It takes a lot of practice to do it well but it's super fun if you have a perfectly sized jump to session and just try stuff

Hey Matt, im an RC enthusiast. Honestly, not much you can do to make that slash better, changing the gearing (bigger pinion gear) could get you a bit more speed but that motor is pretty much maxed out already with a 2s Lipo battery. In my opinion, if you like the slash, get yourself a 4wd slash VXL. It can take a 3s lipo battery, is easily 2x as fast, and handles much, much better. Happy Sending!

I am an RC car enthusiast and you can upgrade the motor to a brushless and ESC because then you will be able to go like 40+ mph depending on how much money you want to spend and then you can get a large variety of battery's you can run and also convert it to 4 wheel drive instead of 2 and that will also make it faster.

You can add airtime steeze by pitching the car's nose up and down while in the air through acceleration (up) and braking/reverse (down) - you can actually make a car flap up and down and up again while coasting through the air, given enough height 😅 Though, it works best with larger, heavy wheels for obvious reasons. With this car, it would probably be rudimentary pitch control. I used to do that a lot with my two stroke nitro monster truck using large tyres. It has no reverse but a proper disc brake at the tranny. Was fun. 😊

The speed controller in that car can take 11.1 volts, so get yourself a 3S battery, it’ll make enough difference to get the car over ALL of the jumps at the Playground. Next time you get a car (or if anyone wants to send you one) make sure it’s 4WD, can take at the very least 3S and has a brushless motor.

Simple drop in kit for the RC would be the traxxas vxl brushless kit. Which is a brushless motor and speed control. Some stickier tires would also help as the stock are fairly hard. 👍🏻

Matt I have seen a few vids of RC Dirt bikes on YT recently and they are actually really cool. Real suspension, disk breaks, chain drive. Internal giro means you can pull insane wheelies and get huge air with them. They even make one with proper Fox riding kit 😆💯 would love to see you rip the playground/compound with one 🔥🔥

I've also seen people controlling the pitch (front/rear balance) of RC cars in the air, I believe by changing the throttle direction. I'd love to see Matt have a go at that, he's got the perfect place to practice! Edit: From the internet "If your chassis is nose high off a jump, the correction is to simply tap the brake to bring the nose down. If your chassis is nosing down, hit the throttle to bring the nose up".

Rc upgrades are easy! But you're still gonna struggle being rwd only. You could convert it to 4wd for a lot more control. Then you can upgrade motor, controller and battery. But at this point, the amount of upgrading you may as well go get a better 4wd truck. 👌🏻 Loads on the market at the moment at a fair price. Also, I think you need to invite Kevin Talbot and his friends for an RC session. 😉💯🔥🤟🏻

I havent messed with RC in 20 years, but they are quite similar to a MTB regarding upgrades. Low end RC are like a big box store bike, through to High end like a factory tuned downhill bike. Best way to get more speed is to see if yours can use a better motor along with beefier battery pack. I'm sure theres an RC shop near you that can guide you. might even make a good video.

Nice of Jamie to lend you the channel again ❤

HAA!! Namer of "The Slab" here. 🙋🏻‍♂ Funny to see you replay that clip of you reading my comment naming it. Stoked to see it back in operation 🤙By the way, that surfboard would be MUCH easier to ride if you cleaned the wax off and stuck some surfboard traction pads to it so the tires can grip to the board better instead of slippin off the wax! You're welcome! 😎

The amount of showmanship in the ag1 ad was phenomenal.

I love how everyone is just telling matt to get either a better rc or upgrade the current one lol. I wish i could bring my cars out there and show you what you could be doing

Yees! Mtb and RC are my 2 favorites! You can either change you're pinion and or spur gear. You can get a high "C" rated battery, or more cells if you're esc can handle it. Love the channel! Cheers!

I love how matt fixed up the rc car, then immediately slammed it into a wall

youre treating the throttle like an on/off button, which is why it spins out. accelerate gradually to keep it straight. for more speed you can get a brushless motor + speed control kit, which will also allow for more granular throttle control. a bigger battery will be faster but harder to control due to you being a beginner and added weight

Two words. Kevin Talbot. Uk crazy KZreadr. Would give you incredible content with your jumps. He is amazing

This was so entertaining!!!👏🏼

I love the RC car vids!

Hi Matt, to achieve a higher top speed from your rc car you need to purchase a new motor and esc ( electronic speed controller) and new battery to accompany this new setup. For recommendations wise you need a brushless motor and esc combo I suggest a hobby wing max 10 combo , and also purchase any type of 2S Lipo battery to accompany this . Do keep in mind the car is rear wheel drive so going super powerful will make it very uncontrollable. Would be awesome if you read this , just giving some advice to your question !

To increase the top speed of your RC car, you should fit a bigger pinion gear, (the gear attached to the motor), this will have the same effect as increasing a chainring size

Build a scafold tower in middle of playground! Ultimate RC veiw point!! Epic vid.....DAVE

Love the videos Matt

Hi Matt, loved this vid as I am into RC cars and biking, this vid made me fanticise about using my traxxas maxx, a car capable of backflips and frontflips at your playground, plyground and compund, that would be soo sick.

I love when u bring out the rc car 🚗

yeeeaaaaaaahhhhh been waiting like 3 years for another one of these

Great vid 😂 first upgrade would be a lipo battery. Then getting a brushless motor and speed controller.

you should get the Traxxas hoss! it would be perfect for the playground. also if you want a higher top speed on the car you have, you have to change out the old brushed motor and replace it with a brushless one. You can go to a local hobby shop and i'm sure they will have a brushless motor and they will help you install it!

I was with you back in the days of the rc car! Been watching since you were on harry mains channel

You can upgrade the battery. That gives it a slight soeed boost. If you wanted to spend a little money then you can swap the motor to a brushless one.

funny You asked about the rc car. I have the same car but in 4 wheel drive. To get more speed you can get a brushless motor and a bigger battery. Also the shock popping out is a common problem and to fix it the brand makes metal shocks. Always love your videos, keep it up!

One way to make it faster is to change the pinion and spur gear. The bigger pinion gear and the smaller spur gear gives it a higher top speed but if you change to too big or too small and can make it not start out fast.

Best video you've ever done!!!

Yh I can remember that video you tried it in slop-style and air bag and you broke the front if I can remember correctly one of the best videos iconic 😂

For the rc car I would suggest buying clips which clip to the suspension and stiffen the shocks which may improve speed but stop it bottoming out and breaking aswell

Matt.we got big video jump here in California. We got slashes and maxes and yes we can jump just about every jump in a line and a hip.

Omd I remember watching you do this in Woburn 😂

10:16 had to watch this over and over 🤣🤣

Love the content Matt keep it up or else

Also , the car being a traxxas slash I'm not sure you can convert it to 4wd at all , however 4 wheel drive would balance out the power and would help you achieve higher speeds safer and more controllable . 4wd is also a lot better for air control as many comments have already explained so I will not bother too 😂 .

Best video ever

Jamie digging jumps while the boys play with toy cars 😂

I don't think lack of speed is as much of an issue with the RC it's just super unstable. You'd need soft knobbies and a proper suspension because right now it has no grip and it's all over the place.

that car is not living up to the potential of the playground having only a brushed motor in it. you should get yourself a new slash with a brushless motor and esc in along with a few lipo batteries, then you'll be slaying like you should be!! or even better Losi have just brought out a crazy RC MX bike with a centrifugal clutch system to keep it upright, defo worth a look

Everybody who drives rc dreams of going somewhere like that to play

I’ve never heard Ben so excited🤣🤣

You need a 1/10 3s brushless motor setup and a 3s lipo, you will be able to double your top speed and have way more power. 🤘🏻

Give the respect they deserve love you for the sideline and park and backyard throwback but do something cool please brooooooo

3s battery will give higher volts = more speed , watch a couple vids regards throttle control and will show how to control in air to find sweet spot landing also

I think we were all also hoping for some Insta 360 GO RC footage! That thing's small enough to not affect weight of the RC, of stabilisation... sorted. FPV would make steering easier too...

Oh! I started watching You guys when You last time ride it 😅

You can get a different spur gear for the motor and it will up your top speed and you can also get a bigger battery but it depends on what you already have

love it

RC Mania at the jones compound!! !!!

It's a handful as it is but a motor swap would probably be the quick ticket to more speed but also less control. Always a trade off.

cant wait for the rc car vs plyground

I’ve got abt the same car and to stop the shocks from exploding oil everywhere you can buy aluminium shock caps wich are the bit that popped of at the top of the shock. They will stop that from happening seeing as now the thread is damaged and it’s a common issue wich most people solve with some aluminium shock caps.

Sick vid

They have VR drones that control perfectly.... Up next VR RC cars!! This would be so much easier with VR controls hooked up to like a PS4 controller

Matt do a Collab with @KevinTalbotTV at your playground! Would love to see a race between everybody with RC cars at the playground!

To make the RC faster you can buy a brushless 4s esc and motor and aswell as lipo battery for more punch and run time. I would also install a fpv camera so you can jump the whole line while watching through the phone or goggles

Jamie, beautiful work this week, loved it, that guy Matt you keep about isn't quite up to standards but he's got some banter I guess

this was literally the best idea 😂

you can put a bigger dattery or motor great work 🔥🔥🔥

Brushless motor and esc with a 3000-3500kv rating and a 3s lipo battery pack will have that thing motoring along nicely. Honestly I’d say get the Traxxas slash 4x4 ultimate but the motor and battery option will do the job of MORE SPEED 😜

Bring more rc to this channel 😂

Hi Matt you was asking on your latest KZread video on how to make your RC shortcourse truck go faster, your running a brushed motor, bit slow, you need to go brushless and a electronic speed controller then you will have a lot more speed, in the plyground you will struggle with traction ply and off road tires no grip

Oh yea that RC compound video… forgot about that… but I did see it! 😎

Ben, you're too eaily impressed lad... calm down.. lol not everything is 'so sick'. I appreciate your enthusiasm.

Change the motor and speedcontroller to a brushless system. Change out the wheels for some fresh ones for more grip 😃

Been waiting five years for this video 😂💀

Easy enough to mod your rc car, traxxas slash, so search up brushless motor and esc combo for traxxas slash, once you've fitted that get a feel for it with your current t lipo as it will have a lot more kick to it, if not fast enough still go for a bigger battery 3s-4s lipo and bigger pinions gears for the motor if you want more speed, hope this helps, potentially have a spare motor, esc and lipo battery sitting around myself

Awsome video, you need to get Kevin Talbot down with his rc cars, his KZread has some massive jumps!! 🤣

Get a brushless motor and esc (traxxas vxl3s) and if you grab some aluminium shock caps that’ll stop the shocks from blowing apart stock battery will be fine but you could also upgrade to a 2s lipo but you’d need a charger to go with that. 🤞

I remember the old rc vid at the compound and entering in the thing to win the other 1

That rc car is sick

7:09 me when im waiting for my food to heat on the pan

To make it faster you will need a better motor and ecu which in turn will make you need a bigger battery, or you could just get a 4wd slash.

A bigger battery will give a longer run time. You need a new motor for more speed.. Also,Hit the brakes when in the air to pitch the front end down for the landings. You can also control the whip by the direction you turn the wheel while the air.

Whats great about Matt is that hes a 12 year boy being curious with a trail builder and camera guy on staff

Hi Matt, did you know you can transfer from a quarter pipe to the big step up landing or you can do a new ground jump next to the quarter pipe to the step up landing. Can you make a trj hop video?

RC CAR tuning Change the motor to a lower turn one which will give more power and soffen the suspension as much as possible. Plus you could also shave weight by cutting of some of the front and rear bumper/ crash structure. Or change to better tires ideally and possibly if miter changed so more controllable.
