Dave, Wonderful addition to your collection of videos. I'm a Dad myself and think it's great you get to do this with your boys. I love your humility and ownership of every goof. I call myself a Muppet too. Thanks for including the rest of us out in the world of CZcams. Sincerely
It certainly is great to be able to enjoy the hobby with the boys, and to see what they can do with an RC. what kids do you have and how old are they ? thank you for joining us and watching on CZcams đđ
Boy-17, Girl-15
"What are you? A wheel man? You drive like you've done this before!" Amazing skills dude! Well done đȘđ
Love the quote đđ Callum is certainly getting good at driving the Losi
Great driving callum
Thank you, Callum is getting a bit of a reputation as the person to beat now
9:28 The foreshadowing!
I know right - anyone would think i knew what was coming đ problem is it gets boring filming from a distance, its normally on the other side i get hit hence i went that side đ€·ââïž
The run looked very smooth. Great driving.
They are sooo much fun, thanks for watching and commenting đđ
Great video what's your favorite rc car
Favorite is a tough one, would really depend on what its being used for.
Pure driving, experience, immersion, sound, smell etc it has to be the Losi 5t, but then if racing it would be a Tekno, if hard bashing Xmaxx
That was fun. Nice driving calum. Ouch you took that like a champ
Thanks, im a tough old boot, did hurt though, what is needed to get the footage đđ
9:28 "I don't wanna get in the way, these are pretty big and heavy cars". 2 minutes later... BOOM hahaha
LOL, i need danger pay đđ
Great footage and audio
Thanks! đđ
This was to cool !
Thanks - glad you enjoyed it đđ
I love the losi. Its my dream rc but canât afford one. One day I will! Also glad that you are ok mate. My respect to Callum for driving like a pro!
They are a of of money that's for sure, most people i know buy the 30 degree north that is far less, as long as you dont start putting big powerful engines in them they actually hold up very well
The Beast is back! Sorry you had so many problems Bro. Weve all had those days! love the camera work. Get rid of that pull start and use a drill. Save your shoulders! Always a pleasure!đȘ
The beast is back, it actually comes out with us every time we go out the boys love driving it that much. Just one of those things, it was multiple hand and likely around 10 years old, so lots of parts were just worn out, not much of the car i bought actually left now đ cant really get a drill into the area i need to be able to start it that way, as long as we follow the correct produce its actually very easy to start, normally within 2 or 3 pulls, even Callum can start it now
great video really in joyed how you kept it going ,each time you hade to fix it ,not like those other you tubers that say (tune in next time when we get it fixed) B.S
Thanks for watching and glad you enjoyed it, had loads more footage as well, my plans for filming each time got cut short when it broke, but i do know what you mean when people try to eek it all out, not us, all our videos will be from the concept to the end in one video
Great video,, great driving , that Truck is a beast
Thanks, yep Callum can drive, makes me a super proud dad for sure. Just love the Losi 5T, though it would only come out maybe 4 or 5 times a year, how wrong was i đđ
He's got to practice with that castle system and program it
Martyn was having huge issues with the flier ESC, just couldn't get it so moderate the power, he is now running on a Max5, it goes well now
GAME OVERRR
The Losi is running sweet now (touch wood) just needed a lot of TLC being about 10th hand đđ
Awesome vid
Thanks đđ
Great video nice bit of driving and that looked very painful
Thanks, yep it did smart a bit đđ
Jeeezus glad you're ok David.. That could've went really bad.
The Losi is a beast đ„
Thanks, yep it could have been really bad, i tend not to go out now when they are racing like that, especially when there are loads going round. Really loving the Losi, hard to explain why, but so glad we bought it
awesome rc and cool run on the track
Many thanks, glad you enjoyed đđ
Nice video. I use to have a FTX Punisher plus. Love that you reply to comments. Other RC youtubers *cough* Tomley RC *cough* could learn a lot from you
Thanks đ i didn't know FTX did a petrol car, i just learnt something new đđ yes i do still respond to all comments but it sure does take time, the bigger channels just wouldn't have time to respond to all comments, so don't be to hard on them đ
@@HardcoreRC Yeah they sure did. It was a few years ago though and not exactly quick lol. Had a Jetpro pipe on it which helped a bit. That's fair enough matey
I was recently bashing around with my Sledge when it hit a rut and shot into my leg before I could jump out of the way. It's been 17 days and my wound is only about 50% healed up. Be careful out there as even a 10-12 lb car at 30mph will ruin your day if it hits you just right.
Ouch thats sounds nasty, yeah people forget how much damage these cars can do, have taken a few hits now, worst being a broken big toe when Granite 3s hit it head on. Hope your leg heals up soon
What camera are you using inside car and also whsts that part called that stops the throttle servo moving under braking its the alloy part thanks .
Great videos .
I have the 30dnt also with the obr 34cc ss , great cars .
I use an Insta 360 Go 2, really need to set up a nice area to mound it inside onto fo the roof. This is the servo brace www.rcmodelz.co.uk/upgrades/30dnt-losi-5ive-t-upgrade-parts.html/steering-brakes/rc-rock-armor-losi-5ive-brake-bracket-silver.html
Yes they are great cars, so much fun
Bet that didnât tickle đ
Nice racing
Nope it didn't tickle, all [part of getting out there and filming though đđ you might want one of these when you see them going đ
Definitely one of the most fun sides of the hobby, I miss my large scale collection.
Tip; don't go crazy on 'run in' (idling) it builds up unnecessary heat and the 32 Zenoah really doesn't like heat build up.
Run gently for half a tank, let it cool down, then start leaning out the carb a little bit, but the 32s do like the run a tiny bit on the rich side as well.
As someone who RCs with my Dad, I love watching you out with your sons :)
Hi and thanks for the tips, i need to learn about running rich or lean and how to tell from listening to the engine, doesn't help that i cant hear that well đđ we tend to fire it up, do a warm, up lap or two before doing any racing etc.
Nice to hear you go out RC'ing with your dad, such a great bonding time that's for sure and im sure đđ
@@HardcoreRC You'll also be able to tell if theirs a lot of smoke or no smoke at all coming from the exhaust, you want a small amount, especially when cold, but not leaving a big blue trail around the track basically :) its easy enough to get the hang of though.
And yes it is, few videos on my channel of us with the Bajas and Losi 5ives... Mostly into the crawlers only these days though.
Electric conversion Hardcoređđ
Noooo, love the sound and the smell and they way they drive, i get why some people do the conversion, but for use we will keep it petrol, Crazy that a G320 is actually far far far cheaper than a electric motor and esc, a max5 would cost more than the G320
pauls always running nice tidy rigs fairplay paul ..........and said it before and ill say it again, callum is a really skilled driver, awesome stuff lads
Yeah Paul always has nice rigs, that DBXL was just beautiful. Thanks for the compliment for Callum đ
@@HardcoreRC anytime lads keep up the great content :-)
Love the video mate! I just bought a Traxxas X MAXX. Can't wait for it to arrive! I used to have a Losi 5T. Nothing but a money pit! I did all the upgrades to it...the servo brace, different clutch cover, outer wears, tuned pipe, kill switch, fancy billet pull start, Zenoah 32cc like the one you put in. Every time i took it out something would break and i wasn't even giving it a hard time. I sold it as it was a joke! They're not a tough RC. They're fun, yes! But not tough. I had a Traxxas Revo 3.3 nitro and that little thing copped so much more abuse than the Losi 5T and it never broke ANYTHING! For years! So much tougher rc. Losi end up costing you an arm and a leg after you've donated a kidney!
Xmaxx is such a great basher, really hope you enjoy, does need a few things done out the box, but once done oh boys such a great car. I get what you are saying on the Losi, but we are actually finding it super tough for what we do with it, the racing is hard, like days of thunder and it shocks me the abuse it takes given its size, at the same time i do find i work on it more than the other cars we have, but part of that's is because i actually enjoy working on it as its so easy to work on. Some parts are stupid cheap like arms, hinge pins etc, then other parts are stupid expensive, but they sure are fun to drive đđ
How long do the servos last ? Been using Hitech w845 1 burnt out considering, thanks
Have had one go and it was replaced under warranty, probably more my fault as was running without the rubber dampers, it was the POT that went after two runs. No other issues and also most of the guys i run with are also running these servos with no issues, plus know loads that run in the Arrma 1/5th with no issues
@@HardcoreRC POT ? Sorry my english is bad after 30 years in japan..
My servo overheated- burnt the circut board. End points were not 100% i tuned to about 70 under. For less strain. Though i burnt it out after maybe 5 uses đ€·ââïž over a span of 1 year - i was not cover under warranty đ±đ± threw in thw stock one for now. Still have run it though i do fear failure - mines pretty modified- always a concern right
@@proautojapan6152 POT = potentiometer, its the sensor that knows what position the servo is in.
All electrical items are subject to failur, these servos have been very good with myself and quite a few others i know that run them, and the plus side is they are also cheap for thier size and power, they cost twice this if we bought same ones in UK stores
When you're changing parts over on an engine should be using loctite
I thought i had, in fact watching the video back it confirmed I had, the issue was I had put the clutch housing on upside down, so when I corrected it I was rushing and didn't apply new thread lock
Looking forward to seeing our electric 1/5 beasts up against these đ
After you see these 30dn / Losi 5T's going you may want to buy one đđ
@@HardcoreRC stop it đ€Šââïžđ
@@jaayyboy28 LOL, they are a sight and sound to be believed, at ARC everyone is getting them for that very reason
Aw what! We didnât get to see the wound? đ€Ł
Next time đđđ
Muito top carros đ gasolina ✠chique đđ„°đđ€©đđ»đđ»đđ»
Gracias, sĂ, muchos autos de primera y mucha diversiĂłn đ Gracias por mirar
Who makes the brake-throttle brace?
This is the one i got: www.rcmodelz.co.uk/upgrades/30dnt-losi-5ive-t-upgrade-parts/steering-brakes/rc-rock-armor-losi-5ive-brake-bracket-2713.html?___SID=S
Sorry Dave lol good vid pal.
hehe that's ok, just don't do it again đđđ
Probably just needed a spark plug and magneto reset, another cool video though!
Thank you, sadly was a bit more as the piston and cylinder were in a bad condition, the piston ring had actually welded to the piston
What camera do you use in the rc?
Insta360 Go2
They have problems getting running because there's air leak somewhere in the motor
It was an older second hand engine, the piston and piston ring were badly work out, one of the joys of buying second hand đ
Awesome! (not the injury obviously) Soon Ill be joining in with my car! Ninety mph Noah haha!
Thanks, come on you need to be 110mph Noah đđ
@@HardcoreRC haha yes ok!
Ouch matey. I thought getting hit by my own Talion was bad but that looked really painful. Really chuffed to see that car doing well though mate.
My son hit me with an Xmaxx (the hardest I've been hit. That threw me on my tail bone), and I hit myself with my EXB Mojave going full speed (that took my shoe off completely while trying to get out of the way). Yeah it hurts!
Yep these one hurt when they hit you, lucky wants going that fast. Its a work in progress for the car, not much of the car i bought left now đ but the boys both love driving it so that's all that matters
They sure do hurt, the bigger the more they hurt đđ your not supposed to hit yourself though đ problem is to get up close i have to take these risks
@@HardcoreRC yeah unfortunately I forgot to turn the car round and pulled full throttle. Rooky mistake... đ€Ł
@@adrianpilbeam7403 LOL, Jack has done that before đ
HIiiiii I just came after Kevin talbots livestream
Hi and welcome - that was a long stream from Kev today
Skip to 11:18⊠omg đ
Hit you like you owed it money.. sheesh
LOL yeah anyone would think i had hurt it in a previous life đđ
stare at the lens
LOL, easier said than done, human nature makes you look at the screen, but i do try to mentally keep telling myself đ
Yep zenoah for reliability. Not speed. đ
I know for out right speed more power is good, but Callum seems to beat the others with their more powerful engines, the other guys are running out buying as much power as they can just to keep up with him đ
Just like nearly every one of my RCs... Dremel cutting disk marks from stuck screws.!!
LOL, you noticed them, i didn't do it, some previous owner did it, but a lot of my Arrma cars carry those wounds đđ
@@HardcoreRC LOL.. I assumed that mate.
BONDHUS.... Best Hex/Allen keys I've ever owned.!
Do yourself a favour & get a set, they're actually pretty cheap too.! (ÂŁ6 to ÂŁ8)
They fit beautifully, they're really hard & long lasting, even their ball heads.
I got them after watching Adam Savage from Mythbusters say they're his favourite tool in his tool box.
I don't know how many different makes I've tried over the years only to be disappointed/frustrated, I've been using Bondhus for a couple of years now & I swear by them.
Stay safe out there mate & best wishes from Scotland đŽó §ó ąó łó Łó Žó ż đ â€ïž đ» đčïž đ đïž đ đ đ đ đ.!
Btw, you're killing it with your channel mate..
WELL DONE.!!!
@@alantaylor353 Thanks for the tip on the hex/allen keys, i have also been disappointed with so many makes, think MIP are a total rip off..
Stay safe yourself đ thank you for your kind words on the channel and really appreciate your support đđ
Top tip for starting a petrol engine, pull the pull start slowly until you feel resistance, that should be at tdc, release the pull start then give it a proper pull, saves all the un necessary arm ache
ok thanks for the tip, will give it a go đđ
@@HardcoreRC you will feel the difference, save your arms too. Taylor rc do a easy start too, saw a video yesterday, the guy literally pulls the string out with no force and it fires up
@@RecklessRcuk Have thought about an easy start, also thought about electric start đđ Easy start woul dmake it easier for the boys to start it for sure.
@@HardcoreRC Iâm not so set on electric start, Iâd go with the easy start over that
@@HardcoreRC have a look at this czcams.com/video/FDLuXlZu3Rw/video.html
Should be torque them bolts
It was my fault, when i first put the clutch case on i did thread lock them, but i had put it on upside down, i rushed to correct it so i could fire it up before it got to late and didn't thread lock them again
Same thing Ian and claire have a problem with
Yep they have also had issues, the common denominator is them being second hand đđ
one big thing I see in this video where he went wrong and that is no lock tight it's a gas car come on it's going to vibrate the hell out of them bolts I knew for a fact it was a mistake by not putting loctite on them Bolts was going to cost him
100% - thought i had not thread locked them, but then editing the video i can see that i did actually thread lock them initially, the issue was i had put that part on upside down, if you look close in the video and know you can see its upside down. I Because it was getting late and needed to get the engine run in to could take out the next day I rushed to correct and fit the right way round and it is then that i must have not thread locked them again.
You live and learn đđ
Iâd get your shed sorted first fella lol
Waiting to see if it falls down on its own đđđ plan is actually to knock it down and build a work shop, just waiting for prices to stabilise again though
@@HardcoreRC you'll be waiting a while then.đ€Ł
@@muckspreader1able Probably :)
Hi hard core. These kill steering servos. đ
Hi Stew, sorry what kill steering servos ?
@@HardcoreRC Losi 5t kills steering servos. I used to use the tonegawa ps 050 servo. Slow but bulletproof. That was 10 plus years ago. đđ
@@Stewss47 Ahh ok, will see how the PowerHD hold up, good thing is that they are only ÂŁ35 on Bnggood vs ÂŁ65 in the UK. At that price they are almost disposable for a 5th scale servo
@@HardcoreRC My PHD is holding up well. Its taken some abuse.
@@jayvincent1900 i have been impressed with them for sure
I know that effing hurt you didn't break anyting you good
Yep it sure hurt, i seem to be a tough old boot though, just bruises and a few cuts đđ
Seemingly every time I see a LOSI FiveT on CZcams it's either broken or in bits.
LOSI = Lots Of Serious Irritation!
LOL, in fairness ours was second hand and likely 10 years old and lots of parts worn our, not much of the car i actually bought left now, for the size and weight of them im surprised they dont break more with what they take. Parts are pretty cheap as well compared to the likes of Arrma and Traxxas, arms for example are only ÂŁ6 each. And they are super easy to work on
But kev hadt a losi 5t engine. Because he fitted a taylor. Why didnt you used kev his old motor?
Because that's Kev's engine and he likely wants it for another project, just far easier to buy a new one, in reality they are not that expensive, they only get expensive when you start looking at the tuned / modified ones
@@HardcoreRC ye thats true
My god man don't get run over by a 5th scale that it's hardcore too far :) great vid though.
I didn't plan to, it hurts a lot đđ need to get the shorts though đđ
Don't you mean gas vs electric?lol
LOL, yes Gas vs Electric đđ
Electric's always going to be gasoline on nitro
Indeed, but it eats lipos quick, get a max of 10 minutes run time per set of lipos - Petrol and Electric have their pros and cons
Petrol is such a pain i* t** a** in my opinion Lol just give me my electric
I would have agreed, until we got a petrol, there is just something about the smell, sound, size and way it drives, its very addictive
Well compared to nitro, petrol cars are ahead of the game lolâŠ
@@DashzRight Have to say we have fallen in love with driving the big Losi 5T, sooo much fun
Only stooges run nitro fuel
I think only Stooges don't know the difference between 2/4 stroke and nitro/glow fuel
Thinking of getting a nitro for the fleet, just seems to be something we are missing
Petros or gas suck electric is where it's at
I would have said the same until we got the Losi 5t, still like the electric, but the petrol does bring another side and feeling to driving an RC car. Both are different to each other both have their pros and their cons
