Losi Tenacity TT Pro Review & Bash
Vložit

- This is the Losi Tenacity TT Pro Brushless 4x4 RTR (LOS03019V2T2 ). Grab one here if you like what you see: amzn.to/3tX5Ieg
This Trophy Truck looks pretty good on paper. How's it drive? Does it have problems? It's been around for about 3 years at this point and it's still selling, so it's gotta have some chops on the dirt... right? Let's test!

#rcreview, #lositenacity, #tenacityttpro,
Ah, got so excited when I saw the thumbnail! Always was a fan of this when it was released. One of the first trucks to get me interested in the SC/Desert/Trophy truck part of RCing.
They just look butch and ready to throw at them what you will... except that front, yikes! But overall, seemed to drive GREAT and I´m super excited for the 12-vehicle comparison!
Hey, Craig, if you're a basher, you're the most setup-educated and most track-oriented basher that I know. And I know where you're coming from, but I wish bashers (and most racers!) could bring to the table the amount of knowledge and good info you throw at each vid. Always learning tons from you mate. Cheers!
Thanks 😊
I'm addicted to SCT/Trophy trucks/desert trucks. Ive got the whole Arrma collection and really want some Losi trucks and Traxxas next. And at some point an Associated SC10. I just want em all lol
I start RC around 6yo with my first RC magazine who completely blown my mind. It was 1986.
I stop RC around 22yo (2002) and finally returned last year with…….
A SuperBajaRey2.0.
What a machine………. Instantly fell in love with the suspension and the tires smell haha
Competition trucks are totally new to me but represent so much pleasure !!
Unfortunately in my country (France) it’s pretty impossible to find a track/club who allows racing trucks, and even less big ones like LOSI’s…
Driving this on an off-road racetrack is really my ultimate pleasure !!!!
I was dreaming about this since I played the arcade game « SUPER OFF-ROAD » in the eighties………
I can finally taste this dream !!
So unfortunate LOSI (HorizonHobby…) absolutely didn’t support correctly this model, what a pain in the ass to have parts, even tires !!!!……🤬😡
Anyway
I’m dreaming about a bigger Traxxas UDR… (what a beauty chassis by this truck, even more beautiful without the body shell)
By the way, I have to say I still can’t be used to this new fashion into the hobby about cars with extra large axles and gigantic wheels (80-90% of off-road cars), they look so ridiculous and toyish to me, I don’t understand what happened with this, during my childhood it was Nikko RC toys who were exactly like that and it’s still the same today, why the hell real RC’s became like that ??? SO UGLY
Oh I loved Super Off Road! You can still play it today:
www.myabandonware.com/game/ivan-ironman-stewart-s-super-off-road-x2
@Yoshimura53: I’m sorry mate I realized I was posting like a stupid into your post instead of posting on the main page. Sorry for that.
@Craig if you read me I answer you into another comment…😓
Good overview of the TT Pro. I've had a DB Pro for a few years and it's one of my favorite RCs. I recently converted a second DB into an SCT for racing. It's unfortunate that yours had some issues out of the box and that it came with the wrong body.
My method for balancing tires is mounting them on a spare free-spinning hub, letting the heavy side rotate to the bottom, and sticking a lump of modeling clay on the top of the inside of the wheels. It takes a few tries to get the right amount of clay in the right spot, but it helps make the car drive more smoothly.
It also seems like you may need to recalibrate the throttle in the ESC. You should be able to find the process in the manual.
RPM makes a front bumper for the SCTE that is compatible (you'll need longer M4 screws for it----it comes with SAE hardware). It doesn't attach to the bulkhead at all and it has a built-in skid. The stock front bumper and body design are rather questionable. The Arrma Mojave integrates the front valance/skirt into the bumper rather than the body, which looks better and is much more durable.
My Tenacities have a good amount of slop in the steering as well. Most of it seems to come from the rod ends. Exotek makes an aluminum steering rack, which helps make the steering more precise.
Looking forward to future SCT review/comparison videos. 🙂
What a super helpful comment, thank you!
I've made my own wheel balancing jig, just like yours. Hadn't decided on the weight though - I like the modeling clay idea, that's smart.
ESC has since been calibrated, yes! It did need it!
I've just bought the bumper, thanks heaps for putting me onto it.
Steering is next! Thanks again :)
Losi is a high quality car. I found out about this specific model through a friend who has the version with a desert buggy body and I don't think it has had the sales success it should have. Between the Senton by price (in the end it is the same company) and the Baja Rey, because it is the brand's flagship model, have taken away many sales. The popularity of the Slash has not helped him either. It is likely that the wheels are deformed because they have been inside the box for a long time. I love this super comparison you are making, thank you.
That sounds reasonable, yes. I've not made it a point to discuss the sales side of thing but this model is very deserving of broader adoption. It's a peach to drive!
Traxxas is better
What in particular do you like more about the Slash than this car? The center diff, the sway bars or the alu shock caps?
(I'm just kidding with you, these are the missing elements in the Slash 4x4 VXL that I really missed. But credit where it's due, with sway bars installed, the Slash is nearly as nice to drive as the Tenacity TT Pro here, which is impressive without a center diff)
I have the DB Pro and am also shocked that it isn't more popular. The center diff is perfectly set up, it feels like the worlds most controllable rear wheel drive car despite being 4WD.
Hm that's a great way to put it
We make very different RC content, but I gotta say, im a big fan of your videos and they way you do your reviews. I catch most of your videos. I think this is my first comment though. I'd like to use this first comemnt to say, well done sir!
Oh hi! I haven't seen your channel before, I'll check it out tonight. Thanks for saying g'day and for your kind words 😊
Hey Craig, nice purchase! Like those trucks. I believe the RPM TEN SCTE (73042) front bumper is compatible with the Tenacity TT. If I'm not wrong the Tenacity was based from the Ten SCTE 1.0 an d2.0. This one looks to offer mure protection and a front skid plate.
Thanks for the info! I've just ordered it, along with the rear skid! Once I've checked it fits, I'll update the description here. Appreciate it!
Its mostly an SCTE so its more racer than basher so its not going to great at either.
If I had my heart set on bashing a short course truck I would get the Senton 3s, plenty durable, goes like stink and parts are fairly easy to get.
Your local dealer isn't going to have many parts in stock unless its in Losi Country.
That makes sense. And yeah, the Senton is crazy durable!
Thankfully I've been able to buy both the bumper and skids from my local hobby shop, so we'll come back to this one with an update once I've fixed it up!
I wanted this truck so bad when it first came out a few years ago ended up getting a senton 3s, this losi is still an awesome choice but that new Baja Rey looks amazing
You bought a solid basher there, good decision! But the Baja Rey 2.0 looks amazing, yeah. Its video is already finished, it'll publish on Feb 12 😊
@@RCTNT nice!! I’ll probably pick up one this summer hopefully I can my hands on the old school ford version
Ah yes, that looks great too
Awesome review! I never really cared for bumpers or crash bars tucked away behind any body skirt. You nailed it on the RPM under body protection . Not Sure why a name like Losi would leave this unfinished like that. I am however impressed with how planted this is! I really appreciate your honest perspective! Thanks dude!👊🏼😎
Thank you. It's a lovely car to drive, once you move past the pain points of assembly and design shortcomings. Really enjoyable to drive.
I love mine, so far only a rear shock shaft has needed to be replaced after I managed to bend it, but it's been bashed a lot so it's a tough truck. I run it 3s with the included pinion and the speed is crazy! My boys love it too although I turn the speed down on the controller so it doesn't get away from them. Nice review mate
Thanks, and I can believe it. The platform is a solid one, niggles aside
I had one of these TT Pros in the past…..super fun rig and especially after I ran it on 4s (upgraded motor/esc) …..tough rig but like your findings of the lose front end steering was annoying. Typical losi bell crank steering slop.
Nice review as always!
Thanks! I'm going to get the steering sorted, the car is too nice of a driver to leave it.
Loving these SCT videos, I'm mainly into Crawling but I have this Losi TT Pro and I love it. It's an absolute demon on 3S. My body also got torn up pretty badly and I'm looking to get an upgrade. I've already done the RPM skid plates and a servo upgrade. I've also got the aluminum steering components as well as aluminum hubs and steering bits that I need to install.
I really would like to buy the Tekno but that is a pretty big spend so we'll see.
It is a big spend! For what it's worth, the TT Pro is a lovely driver. The Tekno is tough, sure. But if you have this already, I dunno. Worth it? Maybe. Maybe not!
At our two tracks we race with the gyro on. Why not? So much more fun. Less crashing and waving. Yes. The downside is it covers mistakes. Yet we’re out there to have a blast. AVC on and let’s go 😎
Fun is the first priority. I think that's a fine idea 😎
@@RCTNT haha I like your spirit
Thanks for putting together all of these SCT reviews! My young son and I have two Sentons, and we're looking to upgrade his. I’m considering getting a Losi for variety and letting his friends race the extra Senton. We live in a remote area, so it’s truly backyard racing, but we want to keep things 1/10 scale.
I’m a bit concerned about the Losi since it's over 5 years old - is what is keeping me from pulling the trigger on buying. It didn’t sell well, and even finding parts online has been tough for me. I also looked into the Associated, but the reports about the ESC issues are off-putting and seems like everything has been on back-order for a few months.
That leaves the Tekno, (which would be the one SCT to rule them all) but the kit alone is about as much as I want to spend in total. Although I love the Mojave 4S, it's a bit larger than standard SCTs.
After using two Sentons, I know a center diff is a must. Any advice or recommendations would be greatly appreciated!
Honestly the AE is a ripper. Haven't really had esc issues besides the odd hesitation on hard throttle, but it's quite liveable. The cheap hobbywing BL120 is a good replacement but I'm still using the stock unit quite happily.
The Losi is good. I've bought two upgrades for it and will cover that in future. Can't speak to parts yet beyond this because I didn't have issues finding what I wanted.
If you're already running Sentons, the AE will be transformative. As well any with a centre diff, honestly.
The Hobao 10SC is another impressive kit, video coming soon. BYO electrics, which is attractive. Seems like a nice kit.
The timing on that rollover! 💯
Haha! Perfect wasn't it
Great vid m8. Shoegoo and tape that body. I didn't reinforce my first one and it didn't last very long. So far the front is holding up well on the second body with goo and tape. Definitely need to upgrade the servo and steering components. It makes a world of difference. Cheers!
Thanks for the advice and the results of your efforts. I'll protect the body, that's on the to-do list!
Have one, no issues, what so ever, apart from little tiny rip, back right tyre, awesome they are too, 👌👌👌
Awesome, thanks for putting me onto it! Glad yours has been a winner!
@RCTNT did I 🤔? If I did no worries,😁😉👍 , I knew you would do a proper n in depth review, 👌👌👌👌👌
I think you were one of the voices suggesting this one, yeah. Good call 👍
Nice! So excited for this. Thank you!
Everything is built to a price I guess but this thing carries a losi premium. Feels like a race pedigree truck with basher tolerances. Bench inspections aside, it does look to drive nicely, you can really see the centre diff doing its thing powering through corners. Given SCTs are notoriously rough on their bodies, the split front end is a really odd decision.
That's really well put, yeah. I like that too: race pedigree with basher tolerances. Hmm.
Decent rig man, seemed to do pretty well with the course. Im not a SCT guy at all but if I had to choose one from the list so far it would be the Mojave or the Techno 410.
Good choices. As a driver, for feel I mean, this car is one of my favourites. So much good stuff out there now!
If your driving on loose gravel, SCT's rip around very quickly
Amazing!! Thanks!!! Bash Life!!
You know it 😎
Unfortunately, they're quite hard to come by in the UK..
I'd love one though..
Took a little finding here, too. I figure they're more common in the USA.
sweet truck.. if I did short course or bashing it looked like it handled way better than any of the 2wd traxxas rigs I've ran though... love how it slid around the corners so effortlessly... really stable that type of handling could have changed the trajectory of my rc experience honestly... the rustlers just turned me off of this type of rig years ago...
4x4 short course trucks are great. But traxxas short changes you without including sway bars and a center diff. The sway bars in particular make an enormous difference, IMO. Even the Stampede VXL 4x4 (or, especially the Stampede, really) benefits from them. So much more stable, so much less flipping over. These cars are simply *fun*!
Great info. I was on the edge of picking this truck up about 6 months ago. I ended up finding a used tekno sct410.3. I know its not the new sct410 2.0 but from what ive seen the 410.3 seems to be a more robust truck than the new 2.0 i mainly bash with a few track days and i love the 410.3. For what i payed for it i think its a better option than this losi tt pro.
I think you found a winner, yeah! It looks like an excellent choice.
Great review!
Thanks!
Great video😉💪
Thanks!
great review dude i've been waiting for this one. Looks like a cool truck but a shame about the build quality, esp as it's a pro version. Looking forward to seeing how the Hobao is
Thanks. I'm finding this is somewhat typical with Losi, now I think about it. Great parts, great design (mostly), but assembly is lacking. Anyway, it's a lovely car to drive, all that aside!
3:15 the slop in the right front, I bought a cheep crawler from ali express and the wheels were looser than a $2.00 hooker. BRUTAL and it wasn't due to tie rods, it was just made that way.
Bushings will do that, loose fit for bearings, or play in the screws for the knuckles. Combine them all and you have a sloppy front, yeah!
@@RCTNT yeah I haven't spent much time trying to figure out why mine tracks like a drunk rabbit. It seems to be the shaft is too small for the hub bearing, and too long, and the mounting points for the a arms are too big for the screws, it's a real POS.
Haha sounds like it!
Looks like it drives nice but yeah some design and quality flaws are disappointing. That wheel imbalance and steering slop would annoy me so much. 😅 Look forward to the Hobao, it should be a good basher
I'm looking forward to seeing it too! In this one, the steering slop hasn't bothered me but the wheel imbalance and lack of front skirt protection has been a bummer.
I think here in the UK we get the DB pro instead of the TT pro. I have both the TLR scte 3.0 and the Troy Lee scte which are basically the same except for a few upgraded aluminium parts on the TLR. Im wondering how these 2 compare to the TT. I can already see lots of the same parts
Thanks for the observations, that's good to know! I can't give you more, sorry, as I'm unfamiliar with the others.
@RCTNT thanks bud 👍
I’m either looking at the TT pro or the Mojave(either 1/8 or 1/7 scale) I enjoy your perspective on bashing so with that being said which one of those would you recommend for bashing?
Mojave 4s for bashing, out of it vs the Losi. I hear good things about the larger Mojave, but I've never driven one. Cheers
Losi do make a good car, but those little issues with the stickers and wheels would bug the hell out of me!! 👍🏻
If I only had one or two cars, absolutely. It sucks to spend a lot and get something with flaws.
Buuuut if you can overlook that, the car is a superb driver. I'm really enjoying it.
@@RCTNT don't get me wrong! If I had the money, I'd absolutely have one!! Or the Traxxas UDR!! 😉👍🏻
Yeah I get you 😁
Debating on the Losi TT Pro or a traxxas short course truck. Leaning toward Losi but still considering traxxas due to aftermarket parts and long term part supply
Hm yeah that's a tough one. The Losi is the better vehicle but longer term parts could be an issue.
@@RCTNT exactly
It’s not a short course truck but the Traxxas Raptor brushless truck is very fast & I’ve seen it beat up bad but survived. It’s a bit pricey but I’ve been thinking more & more about getting one.
It looks good, doesn't it. I'd have included it in this round up but it's not available in Australia yet. (Besides likely costing a packet!)
It's not a short coarse, it's a TT ( Trophy Truck ) the discontinued Losi SCT was the Short Coarse Truck.
You're not winning short coarse races with this chassis as it's heavier than the rest.
They are extremely tuff however, I have the DB PRO version and it is way better for bashing as it doesn't suffer with bodywork problems like the TT.
I run mine with the power 2 points up in the esc on 3s does around 65mph now, have to keep an eye on the heat though in the summer months.
Thanks, I should have included this in my video. Genuinely appreciate you spelling it out. I'll check out the DB Pro and I'll be sure to include the extra detail in my SCT, TT and desert truck round up video. Cheers
@@RCTNT also forgot to add it, mine has the same front left steering looseness.
@bespincustompropsbombarta8300 good old Losi ball crank design eh
Nice vid. Now try the TEKNO SCT 2.0. NEXT LEVEL.
Done. czcams.com/video/depsCs0MEcw/video.html
15:14 all the damage could be avoided by simply leaving the body clear in front of the light bar and having the whole front solid.
That's definitely one way to do it, and it would be better. But it's still not ideal.
@@RCTNT are all bodies paper thin now? I remember back in the day you could almost stand on one before you cut it out. To cut it out you'd either have to use a dremel or tin snips.
Like youtube commenters, some are thicker than others. It's not as bad as some of the cheap cars out there, I'd call this car average. It's more the bumper design letting it down here.
It handles and jumps nicely, but man.. why did they not extend the front bumper? Is it on purpose or just poor engineering? Hard to know, but it seems like a pattern with Losi in my experience.
Yeah I dunno either. For looks, it's gorgeous. But with others, like the Baja Rey 2.0, there's a bumper protruding through the body. That helps. But really you want some actual protection, yeah!
@@RCTNT Agreed!💯
my new hammer ray i bought a month ago did the same crap ... calib issues multiple times
LOL I don't know of any RC basher tires that are balanced
These are worse than most. I have what, 30 bashers here, give or take? I'd say 25 or more of them are good enough that I've never noticed the vibration at speed. But there are a few here that are noticeably quite bad, and the Mojave 4S stands alone at 'Awful'. It varies :)
Have you tried the Arrma Mojave? It’s a great basher in this short course body style
Of course!
czcams.com/video/t0nF89KlqQ8/video.html
That looks like a decent truck. Still "old skool proven metal" construction. Bit ashame that body cracks so fast since their not cheap (for any car) nowadays...
The habao maybe a nice surprise but we will see.
Sometimes old is just better... 😂
I kind of agree on old is better, but honestly, good design goes a long way. Some of my modern cars are just tanks!
@@RCTNT i know their strong. But can't get my mind to believe that for instance a composite driveshaft is equally strong as a steel one... Also there is a lot more profiled material necessary to get strenght which can be a disadvantage mostly with debris. Then again, my 2wd buggy has a composite chassis which im glad about. Only 16€ to replace, the aluminium one is around 90. Only thing is that you don't find these prices, or differences in that, back in the vehicle prices ..
Yeah that's fair. I didn't understand your last sentence though. Do you mean the value isn't so good?
I feel like older stuf maybe more value for money, but also gives more quality feel. Maybe also reason is, when buying upgrades, these are most off time nice machined aluminium or carbon parts for instance. So i am tended to say "full composite" car should be cheaper for that reason. That doesn't always mean its less prone to break, because composite can flex more...
Ah, I see. I think that applies in some cases, but there are older cars that are money pits and new ones that need barely anything and are super tough. And vice versa. Maybe it depends on the brand and even the model.
Between the tt pro and associated sc10 pro 4 which one would you pick, i cant decide between the 2, both seem good
Both are good, yeah. Pro4 is better value, insofar as features for price. Both drive well. But I think the Losi is the nicer one to drive, IMO. If I could only have one, it'd be the TT Pro. But it's subjective and they're both worthy cars.
@@RCTNT thank you for replying, awesome channel you have, I can get the sc10 from amain for $288 with coupon, only thing that worries me about the sc10 is parts availability say a couple yrs down road, I looked up aftermarket for it and there isn't much. I like the idea of gyro in tt pro (I've never had that) and very nice looking parts on that, tough choice
@jonl6335 thank you ☺️
Parts concern is fair enough, though remember it's a popular model and the after market tends to support popular models pretty well. I can't make any promise for either of these, obviously, but one option is to buy the most likely breakables now (a-arms, front & rear skid, knuckles possibly).
The other option is to just hope for the best and drive it. We can always Frankenstein in some kind of fix down the track when parts are thin on the ground. If you think about it, there's usually a way through.
Enjoy the decision and driving! They're both great models 👍
@@RCTNT one more quick question, sorry for so many. If I decide to go tt pro route can I solder xt60 on instead of that ic5, not sure if xt 60 is to small or have to go up to xt 90
No problem at all. I'd suggest XT90 for 3S, to be safe, but honestly XT60 will still handle it, even for a high power draw drive session. Just be sure to make quality connections: tin the connectors first, tin the wires, add flux if needed, then heat the connector with solder and let the wire be flooded with more solder as you insert it into the connector.
Bottom line, if your batteries have XT90 connections, let that guide your decision. If they have XT60, that's telling you XT60 is acceptable :) (60A even at 3S is a LOT of current, XT60 is good for it!)
How would you compare this to the Pro4?
We'll cover this in the round up video, but in short, they're very similar. Both have a center diff, brushless, sway bars, 4x4, 2&3S, etc. But the Losi has AVC, and it's quite good. It also has an alu chassis, making it more of a track oriented vehicle.
With its better body protection and plastic tub chassis, the Pro4 will be a better basher. Lighter weight means less damage in big hits, and you don't need to purchase parts from new to protect it.
The Losi needs under body protection, IMO. Also something needs to be done to protect that nose, it's too delicate for how it's going to be driven by most. But it's a more refined drive, the radio is much nicer and the esc is more immediate in its response.
They're both good cars. Track with some bash? Losi. Bash with some track? AE.
500 euros anyway, I find that the quality is not there!
The steering has a lot of play and the speed calibration is not very good either.
There is too much play in the suspension arms.
I'm not a fan of the 2 central cards, I prefer just 1 like on the slash 4wd or the sc10 pro4.
The AV and AR shields are really not great, they are way too hard.
In fact it's a little "bottom of the game" for a rc at 500 euros.
350 euros max!
I'm disappointed at the moment, I don't regret the traxxas 2wd vxl that I just took, (I have the lgc chassis and that changes everything!!).
I hesitated with the team associated sc10 pro 2 but for bashing the Traxxas is excellent!
Reasonable criticisms, yeah.
And the pro2 lt10sw is on my list, btw. We'll look at that one soon too. Cheers
@@RCTNT Hooo great!
Maybe you'll make me regret buying a traxxas 2wd vxl?
I can't wait to see this test and your feelings on this one, I'm a fan of 2wds, I find them more fun and realistic to drive.
No track, only fun!!
You'll be pleased to know there's a Kyosho outlaw kit coming too then 😊
@@RCTNT hohohohoho santa !!!!😃
LOSI are very disappointing about quality control. VERY
Ask SuperBajaRey2/SuperRockRey2 owners………. Some of us even didn’t keep the car just for that.
But when once you succeed to fully « finish » the car after a full rebuild and tuning, LOSI’s models are fking enjoying…
Such a shame.
This does seem to be true, yeah. My SBR2.0 was especially disappointing. I go into detail on my article on rc-tnt.com about this. But once they're sorted, they are really performers! Great design, middling execution.
@@RCTNT oh I even didn’t know (or remember…) you’ve got one !! So you know……..
I don’t know what’s really happening with LOSI, I have the feeling they’ve got a very very good R&D team but then I feel HorizonHobby ruins everything, maybe I’m completely wrong but I don’t think so…
Anyway
I’m starting to enjoying mine SBR2.0, I’m into a serious chassis tuning, this is very interesting, but clearly and definitely, I won’t buy another LOSI or Horizon product anymore.
Except ARRMA’s who did a BIG step up end of last year.
I’m French and the service/support from HorizonHobby here is CATASTROPHIC… They drive me crazy. I’m done.
Can’t wait to watch your other SC/BajaTrucks videos, I missed a ton of things these last months !! 👍
I don't try for support from Horizon brands. I'm sure it's great in the USA, but in Australia I've been ignored or had to chase multiple times to the point I don't try now.
Ironically, the best support I get is from Chinese brands where I've bought directly from sellers on AliExpress, and from Asiatees. Actually RC4WD have been good, too, now I'm thinking about it. But all the smaller brands just stand by their products really well, I've found. Good on em.
@@RCTNT Okay so we are experiencing the same in Europe, at least in France for sure.
I don’t know what’s happening with HH but I really hope they will step up cause the full experience I had with them was TERRIBLE, from orders to after sale services…
I pass the details there are too many and it’s turning me really crazy but I swear these were absolutely UNBELIEVABLE.
………….
Even the resellers here are struggling A LOT with them… Absolutely zero communication, no stock, no infos, leaving them alone facing very disappointed customers…
I even feel very sorry for the brands owned by this group.
I don’t know who is leading HH but I think there is a big problem somewhere into their organization.
It’s really a shame because the brands don’t deserve this plus what’s the interest for them to be a part of a big group if it’s a mess like that ? I bet some HH brands should be pissed AF like us…
By the way, you should be mad when I think most of RC’s are made in Taiwan who’s just “next to you” 😆
My wife is Taiwanese, from Taichung, we discovered (I should say SHE) that cause she’s is very used to deal with factories and suppliers all around the world (bike domain, but she knows very well “how it works” with other industries…)
Is there a HH warehouse in Australia ??
@@RCTNTwell… my big answer disappeared 😭 I’m too frustrated.
At least I would like to thank you a lot for the link you gave me on another post, about SuperOffRoad abandonware!!
And I wanted to give you another CZcamsr channel but my comment also disappeared, his name is “MX Aves” he’s very very cool and race MonsterTrucks on beautiful indoor dirt racetrack, it’s completely giving me the feeling to experience SuperOffRoad in real life !! Maybe you will like it 👍
Nawl I'll pass, looks cheaper then the Chinese cheap vehicles
It's much, much nicer than the cheap stuff. You're entitled to your opinion of course, but I don't really know how you got that impression from this video. The TT Pro does have its shortcomings, but it's still a solid and premium vehicle. I have quite a few rc cars here (easily over 100) and this is as nice as any of the best stuff from a parts quality standpoint.
The design could be improved and assembly clearly needs work, but overall? This is a good one, IMO.
Just Losi's bad QC. Other than that, my buddy has one and it has outlasted and outperformed my Senton under the same pressure.. and the Senton is one of the most reliable on the market. I need one of these.
Senton is very tough too, yeah. Spoiled for choice, aren't we!
@@RCTNT yes we are! Everything is gonna have good and bad, and choices are always a good thing. My favorite will not always be anyone elses, and vice versa. That's a huge part of the hobby: just finding out what ya like the most
@Krapper515 well said
