Maybe 5 broken parts in 2 years. Enjoy axial losi traxxas. All drive so different and easy to fix. I fly too but not as good as you. Sport cub s taught me to fly in 30 minutes. 2 days later got apprentice. Horizon makes fun and the stand behind their products. I only buy traxxas and horizon hobby due to parts and customer support and durability.

    I'm not criticizing your point or analogy about the house comparison but in a lot of RC hobbies You are somewhat encouraged to kind of trek into the unknown and build your own things (cars trucks drones helis planes) when you become thoroughly invested and rooted in The RC world. That's not the case in the housing market, from what I have gathered, the only people that are building their own houses tend to be on the wealthier side. So there's that clear distinction between everyday people that could never afford to buy or build a house outright and somebody that is going to build some sort of RC that would be the same cost as buying it pre-built. so I don't think it's a one to one analogy, but it is a very good analogy for people that are just joining the hobby. All in all you guys did an amazing job with this video. Love you two, Love the channel y'all are awesome.

    • @jakeydeefpv

      And if I misunderstood the analogy in any way I'm very sorry. Like I said, I'm not trying to be a 🍆.
      I'm not trying to criticize at all. If it seemed condescending when reading, I am very sorry, was not my intention.

      You should absolutely pick up a small crawler for indoor running! Easy way to help get your RC fix without getting bundled up in the winter or rained on, etc.. during bad weather! Plus, they don’t cost much compared to larger vehicles! 👍😁😎⚓️

      I hear you loud and clear. The crazy thing though, is we’ve talked to a lot of people that have $2,000-$3,000 in their custom 1/10 rock crawler builds! 😬😅⚓️

    • @murdersaab8999
      @murdersaab8999 Před rokem

      I gotta say I did pay 1300 for my traxxas xrt, batteries, and charger but it is by far my strongest rc vehicle. I jump it alot and have had many not ideal landings and it's not broke yet. I did add zip ties to wing mount because I hear it's a weak point. I own ten + rc cars and I feel I got what I paid for. Can't speak on a 1300 dollar crawler. Scx6 doesn't have the best reputation for a 1000 plus cost. Scx10 for the 1000 plus doesn't appeal to me.

    When I started in this hobby, RTR did not exist.
    I find building the vehicle gives better insight on how to maintain, repair and improve it.
    To date myself, my first hobby grade rc was a Tamiya Subaru Brat controlled by a Futaba FP-2T 2F.
    No longer have the transmitter, but still have the Brat.

    It's nice that that is a option but I bought a used vanquish added some rock pirates rails and bed and I would bet it will out crawl that build for half the cost. I enjoy building my own rig but not everyone can do that. Good luck with it and hope you enjoy it wish they would offer more options though. Limited tires didn't see any over or underdrive.

    • @TheRcSaylors

  • @allmightygreat1892
    @allmightygreat1892 Před rokem +2

    Call me cheap. Drive my rtr hard and break parts. Replace broken parts with low cost plastic. If the same part breaks more than 2 or 3 times replace with upgrade. Who would drop 1300 for a few upgrade parts on a 400 to 500 dollar crawler. I dont value a wrench turners time to install a part that i can install in a few minutes.

      @TheRcSaylors  Před rokem +1

      There are a lot of different people with many different lifestyles that enjoy this hobby 😁 That’s one of the Best Parts about RC 👍 Some have more money than time, but want something like this. We have a lot of older viewers with poor dexterity that might not be able to build or wrench on things. Also, there are quite a few handicapped people that use RC to build hand eye coordination. Maybe they want a custom rig but can’t build it themselves! The examples can go on and on, but I do think you are right. I’d say a Majority of people would probably rather build it themselves, if they are able to 😁😎⚓️

    It’s hilarious that they think that the only reason to buy an existing house is if you lack the knowledge on how to build a house. How about:
    1. Constructing a house is far more expensive than buying one that has already been built.
    2. Constructing a house likely means you’ll be homeless for the year or so it takes to build.
    3. Construction produces significant carbon emissions and waste products.
    4. Building a house requires tens of thousands of dollars of tools whereas building an RC car can be done with less than $100 of tools.
    5. Building an RC car (which I did several times in the 1990s - Schumacher, Yokomo, Team Associated, Mardave, Tamiya, etc and have done within the last year - Traxxas TRX4) requires only extremely basic screwdriver skills. Building a house requires architects (5+ years of training), civil engineering, structural engineering, mechanical engineering, envelope engineering, energy engineering, electrical engineering skills which most municipalities require you to be qualified and certified in.
    TL:DR - building your own house solo doesn’t make sense. Building an RC car is a small step up from Lego.

      Pretty sure you missed the joke/ point. The point is mainly that some people are better at certain things than others! A “built for you” feature like this exists for those that can’t or just don’t want to build their own rig. None of what we said about building a house was meant to be taken seriously. I’m honestly surprised I’m having to further explain myself about this, but either way I’m grateful you spent some time with us! Have a Blessed weekend! 👍😁😎⚓️
