Vesla, the 5t, hpi baja 5b, FID Dragon Hammer V2, Vecta, but once I ran across the Losi DB it was A no brainer what to get. I'll love to test A Vesla doe it looks nice.

Damn that place is A da n dream to drive at!

Where can i get one?

Is this worth $900?

What brand is that t piece red wrench tool kit you are using with interchangeable bits. Please

can these chargers be used to charge the ps4 controller battery. I'm not sure what you call the other end where it connects to the red and white extenders but the ps4 controller battery doesn't have those. So I was wondering if there's a work-around that one does to be able to charge the ps4 lipo batteries for the controller.

Nice 🎉 worth more thn some people cars 😅😅

Got the futuba 4pm pluss, do you have a video on how to set brakes to lock when signal lost, and how to set the signal lost? Just wounder so i dont Need to read 😄💥💥👍🏻good video 👍🏻

You did the rear all wrong

Thanks bro 👌

For anyone wondering why their vehicle won’t start now. The tutorial is wrong. To correctly install, switch around the red and black connectors on the ignition coil. Red is closest to the pull start and black is on the furthest connector.

Didn't know you were a celebrity. I've been the one every Friday bugging everyone. I have really been wanting one or the other. I think Friday I'll come pick up the vesla5. Cool vids, you should do more.

HAD NO IDEA THAT THESE LIPO BATTERIES ARE THIS COMPLICATED, NO WONDER WHY PEOPLE HAVE BEEN BURNING DOWN THEIR HOUSES😂

Ordered mine today 😀👍

where is the rest of this series?

Very happy i support you guys!

Awesome video Steve. Very helpful. With a little "Trim" can a set of Hostile HH974 for the Baja 5T-SC be used for a Losi 5T?

just got one of your motors and supplied screw and it doesnt tighten up why?

from where i can purchase the steal Baja tires?

It takes a lot of concentration you say. Ever fly an RC plane? That is intense.

Hey! I watched your video and appreciate it very much I’m not sure if I missed it but I have a HPI Baja 5t and I do have the bigger rear tires and narrow front tires. Now I’m looking getting new tires, foam and rims pretty soon and was thinking should I just go narrow all 4 wheels like the Losi 5t does or stick to the bigger rear and narrow front ?

@ddmsteveb I would love if you created a video that discussed rims, materials, construction, weight and how it impacts performance. I keep wanting to buy upgraded wheels but they are expensive and I don't see videos that discuss anything but durability of the wheel it self for 1/5 scale. I am wondering if there are other impacts on the drivetrain given the increased weight. What is the impact on performance? Do I need to adjust my gearing?

its the biggest piece of trash switch of all time... the question isn't even if it will get stuck, but when

Are you supposed to rotate the tires?

ok so rampage mt should use the modified clutch type.cannot use the standard housing.ok thks

You have the most amazing view! What a dope place to run RC’s 🫡

Great info herein!! Thanks, you saved my bacon. I was about to pull the trigger on a set of DBXL-E 2.0 wheels and tires with the intent of replacing the tires with truck size down the road. I guess that's not an option. That stinks. I'm looking for race worthy tires for a Kraton 8s.. guess I'll keep looking..

Currently, my only large-scale RC is an X-MAXX (4WD vehicle), thus everything I know about it doesn't apply to what's coming - I am about to start building the Kraken VESLA.5 SBK (ie. limited-release kit version of the VESLA.5). As your video mentions, the VESLA.5 uses the same wheels & tires front & rear (ie. the same wheel diameter & width as the Losi 5ive-T). However, from my 1/10 2WD buggy experience, I also know that front tires should be "ribbed" (especially when running on sand & dirt). This is where I could use some 'assistance'. For the VESLA.5, I plan to have three sets of wheels/tires - one for street use, one for desert use, and (eventually) one for sand use. For street & sand, I’ve already been provided with more than a few good tire options. Here is my ‘concern’, and what leads to my questions. For desert use, the best suggestions have been the Mad Max Double Blades, and HPI Dirt Buster RIB. The ‘problem’ is that, as far as I’ve been able to tell, these only appear to come in ‘buggy’ width, which also makes me think the overall tire diameter is shorter. Unfortunately, specs of these two tires is virtually non-existent - the Dirt Buster RIB tire info states “170x60mm” (I assume that’s in reference to the mounted-wheel diameter & width), and I can’t find ANY info for the Mad Max Double Blades. I know, in the video, you said that wheel & tire measurements don't mean anything to you...but, to many people, those measurements are very important...especially in the case of 2WD vehicles. Finally, the questions: 1) What are the measurements (wheel mounting diameter & width, as well as overall tire diameter) of the stock VESLA.5 tires, if you know? I could be wrong, but I’m guessing they are probably the same measurements of tires for the Losi 5ive-T. 2) What are the measurements of the Mad Max Double Blades, and HPI Dirt Buster RIB, tires? 3) If the Mad Max Double Blades and/or HPI Dirt Buster RIB tires have “front buggy” dimensions (meaning narrower and/or having a smaller overall tire diameter than VESLA.5/5ive-T tires)), are there any tires (the same models, or something almost identical in tread design/pattern) having “narrow truck” dimensions, which could be mounted onto stock 5ive-T/VESLA.5 wheels? 4) And, finally, for any of these tires (ie. the two I mentioned, as well as any of ‘similar’ design), are any available that are belted? I have no intentions of doing ‘stunts’, thus tires that ‘balloon’ are not a requirement.

Just bought one of these for my Lipo batteries for Airsoft. Absolutely amazing tutorial

Will the 5t 5sc rear wheels fit on my 5B?

Gracias !!

you are talking about $600 for little toy thats insane i go for sky sr5 better

For those looking to pick one of these up we have THE BEST PRICE AVAILABLE but only when you call; you can reach us at 801.619.0235 and we will get you a Promoto MX for a better price than anywhere else!

Bro do they make 1/5 drift compounds? Im building a new chassis thanks

Thanks for the lesson! I just subscribed to your channel. 👍👍👍👍

And for $1600 should’ve came with the sway bar

Any feedback on those Galante Performance RC suspension limiting straps? They appear to route funky and hard to say how long they would last so close to the driveshafts. I am guessing a decent roll would dislodge the top loop from the mount. I had Killer Bee straps on my 5B that lasted for years. Too bad they are out of business.

What about an electric conversion setup? That would be nice to install in the Vesla. thanks

Steve I have a mint HPI Baja 5t and I want to see if you know of anyone anywhere that I can get a set of rear proline tires from, I have tried rovan knock offs and they suck (fit loose on foams ) if you know of anyone who has a pair or two HMU ill pay top dollar

Great spot my friend.Just got myself a Vesla,been dying to run it for Two months but the the English weather is appalling.A question if I may.What batteries fit into the Veslas battery tray.? I got a couple of packs of the classics 9000Mah.They are a little to wide to squeeze in and when they swell will be very tricky to remove.Thanks. Sweet driving in a savage and beautifull location.✌️

Looks cool, but that chassis won’t stay straight for long.

Hi, excellent video. I want to buy a set tires and rims to my 5IVE-T 2.0 . Any recommendations? Please let me know thanks

Is this the last of the build? There has to be more to it than that. Heh.

Hello Steve, Can you please make a unboxing video of other FG 4wd onroad cars.

What if the lithium battery you purchased doesn't have the balance connector it has a barrell connector?

Sweet looking for sure

Nice 😮😮😮😮

Great video! Can the gear and clutch pulley change to obtain different gear ratios; Thank you!

Pretty cool 👍💯

Bonjour ou a tu trouvé le pull à mettre sur le personnage cordialement
