Great video as usual, add one thing to make life easier. Where the clip goes thru to hold the battery compartment closed, I dremeled/filed a slight ramp so when the body clip exits the hole, it has room to clear ...
Nice tip!!
Great video and great timing. I got one yesterday but it was too rainy to drive it. Thanks for another great year of videos 🎉
Awesome! Glad this was helpful!
Hope you enjoy it!
Great information, regular maintenance can make the difference in being able to enjoy your rc,I run maintenance on mine after each use,thanks troy!!
Very true! Good point Thomas!
Great video got one for Christmas haven't tried it out yet👍👍
Thanks! I hope this helps you!
Great tips for first timers! Thank you! With the batteries I've taken the frosted clear plug off the balance lead and put clear heat shrink tube over it to protect it. If you don't do this you risk getting the whole balance plug smashed and possibly shorting the battery and causing a fire. My plug got destroyed but luckily no fire as i spotted it first and carefully took it out. Keep your great videos coming mate and Merry Christmas to you and your family. 🧑🎄🎉🎄
Great tip!! Thanks for adding it!
When you ride a bicycle you do the same thing to initiate a turn. you turn the opposite way. We don't know that because it is something natural we picked up as kids. I suggest you watch a physics video on bike turning. There is nothing wonky about the turning of the Promoto MX it is the way all bikes turn. You just don' notice it when riding.
Yes! Seems counterintuitive, but clearly works!
@RoadsideRC Roadside what is better for rock crawling a Everest 10 or a Ascent in your honest opinion? Or even once they are both fixed up with motor,tires,etc which is better for crawling?
@@JohnSmith-os7zm 100% the Ascent. Honestly, it is not even a comparison.
I just subscribed to your channel and gave it a thumbs up I really like this video this is awesome because I'm planning on buying one of these can you please do a video on how to clean it how to wash it cuz I know I have a real dirt bike and when I wash it I got to do all this prepping and stuff so water doesn't get into the carburetor and all that crap so if you could do a video on that that would be awesome man 👍
Thanks for the idea and the sub!
I am getting a Losi promoto this week. I have been studying the manual from Amain and looking at upgrade parts from Vitavon.
Nice! I hope you like it!
seems some silly design errors and as usual useful advice mate
*👍like👍Au👀fully watched🎅*
Thanks 👍
They need to make a Ricky Carmichael outfit for the rider and a James Stewart outfit for the rider that would be great!!!
Fun idea!
There are a lot of folks creating custom outfits.
Why cant somebody come out with a promoto mx cleaning tutorial? I want to clean my promoto but scared on what to get wet and what not to get wet
Ahh! Good suggestion!
This thing really is hard to clean.
It has a normal steering setting on the controller. The N&R switch.
If you flip that switch, then the bike won't drive correctly.
@@RoadsideRC drives great for me in either mode.
Does anyone know the origin of Crawling? Where, when, and why ?
Great question!
Cost for repair parts is just way too high
Good news - I have not had much need for repair parts.
