[@InTheDogHouse3DPrinting]

Definitely going to enter for this.

Friggin entered. The wrecked one is going on the mantle!!!

[@miikahirvikoski5457]

I wonder if there’s anything left of it😂

[@BaffinDeSousa]

I loaded the exact same system to an all aluminum WLToys 124019 custom build. It lasted about 20 seconds - went airborne at about 60mph and is now sitting in pieces waiting to be rebuilt.

[@deejaytrizay]

These videos are fun...but 99% ppl watching are just regular users on lower budgets and want to see best and realistic results (but also enjoy the fun) if they were to buy it.... *wreck, backflip, backflip, wreck, flip, backflip and on and on* when KNOWING all you hafta do is add weight to the front as make an easy wheelie bar? THAT is what the ppl wanna see! That thing had a TON more than 54 MPH in it! a TON MORE! Have always loved your stuff Kev!

[@toxicshot7728]

Absolutely loving that RC bash/modified videos. This is why your channel is unmatched.

[@nanaki-seto]

Before we had lypos and were stuck with nimh i built a rc car from various parts some kyosho (sp?) team losi and traxxas parts all mashed together put on to a custom plate aluminum chassis and used 2 metal rods cut from a old ink jet printer to make chassis stiffeners i fastened to the bottom plate. I used some more metal rods to make a shock system for a front crash guard. When you have and rc car that does about 70mph and weighs in around 6+ pounds potentially slamming in to curbs you want all the protection you can get! I had a cop friend of mine uses his laser speed gun new tech at the time to clock it it hit 73mph flat out every thin in the transmission was basically custom. I had issues with the tires blowing up and ended up cutting rubber discs from a truck mud flaps that i glued up in layers drilled them and balanced them. Never had any issues with tires blowing up after that LOL It ran on a novak speed controller brushed of course back then i believe it was a 4 to 12 or 4 to 14 cell esc . Haven't done much with rc cars since to be honest

[@ypsqueeze9632]

Honestly, thanks for the vid’s kev

[@pauleypauley]

You know I would still take that car broken just so I can say I have an RC from the best RC KZbin channel.

[@machinedred]

Wow what a weak car ! I can't believe the chassis snapped just because you'd removed most of the material that makes it strong then fitted 115000 rpm then gave it full raz wheels off the ground with a half loaded ripped tyre! They don't make em as strong as they used to eh keV 😂😂😂

[@tobyduncan210]

Ahahahhaha😂

[@SKRILLA4DBD]

No not at all 😅

[@TidyRC]

😂😂😂

[@rcsmith5909]

He did reek out the motor box quite a bit so that was probably where the failure happened😏

[@truerc]

Kevin didn't remove enough material to matter. The fact is a weak chassis is nothing new for Arrma. They're practically known for it.

[@unwatchablevgaming8897]

love seeing you overvolt these lower powered rc cars

[@chrisleyba8339]

Hey Kev I just got me an Associated MT10 V2 because I watched your bashing videos with this truck & Stempy couldn’t break it. It’s gonna get it now!! 😅

[@yeayea-tz2kq]

Dude I just bought one 2 days ago!!! Cant wait for it to arrive it’s truly indestructable!!

[@fartdonkey8290]

The consensus is the mt10 good the mt8 bad right?

[@rchannel-gt]

​@@fartdonkey8290yes correct bro

I've got one too and my friend crashed it into a brick at full throttle and broke an arm and all of the blue metal peaces in the car are bent

You get both, one new one and one that needs everything replaced 😂.

[@JD-tl7ld]

I am highly impressed that the stock truck took that power for as long as it did.

[@OGRCFanatic]

I gotta say, yes, this was very entertaining 😂 But watching that Gorgon get so destroyed physically hurt my soul 🤣 I love my Gorgon. It was my very first Arrma purchase and it’s probably my favorite RC car right now. I love that it looks, drives, and feels like the RC cars we had as kids way back in the 80’s. After buying the Gorgon, I now also have a Granite 3s 4x4 and the Outcast 4s. Great video, Kev. Keep them coming brother 🙌🏼

[@beejsonw]

So the gorgon just came out like a month ago and you already bought two other arrmas? Damn.

[@markpearce803]

Lies

[@NOTORIOUS_J_RC]

Hi Kev. The Gorgon can handle the power. The tires are garbage, but if you use Typhon 3s 17mm hexes, you can run street tires. I did and I'm at 70 mph on 4s and 76 mph on 6s with a dinky little 3800kv motor. The quest for 100 continues

[@FarmerFpv]

It wont go 100 mph the way it sits. You would have to do some serious custom Aero for the front end downforce and lower it to the ground. Otherwise it's going to bow over and be unstable. I'm surprised you got it to 75 without it doing a wheelie and looping out every time you hit the throttle. Do you have a video of your speed runs? Gorgon is not meant for speed. 100mph isn't easy with an onroad 1/10 scale RC car without any custom aerodynamic changes to improve downforce.

[@NOTORIOUS_J_RC]

@FarmerFpv I posted a video on my channel. Only problem so far is stopping

[@viajacob9521]

Rc car blows wheels off😂😂, maby say "rc car explodes wheels like nothing" lol just giving title advice, but it would not matter because your the best rc car KZbin eny way lol. Loved the vid

Hey Kev Love your videos brother hello from Ohio Don't ever stop the RC bashing I know it's getting to the cold season I look forward to your new videos every week Thank you for keeping this old fella in to RC's

[@Addicted_2RC]

8:05 tire glue in the eye... I've never thought about that happening but now that you said that it happened to Craig I'm going to have to break out my safety glasses more often. I'm sure that was painful. Great tip Kev 🤓🤓👊👊👍👍 Gorgon looks great for the price and took some serious abuse. I've got the RTA version to assemble with my son

5:36 has anyone noticed how when he points the camera at these buildings the screen blurs

[@TheDudeRc]

More content!?! My day just gets better and better!

[@jlco]

I continue to be surprised by how realistic the seemingly wacky physics effects seen in BeamNG are. Many of the high aspect ratio tires expand just like that at high speeds, particularly when suspended in the air. (The normal car tires typically just pop around 250-300 mph, which is apparently also realistic, judging by the fact the record breaking Chiron needed specially engineered tires to hit ~300)

[@williamtao2427]

what is you make it FWD

[@professional_hater885]

Then you blow up the front wheels instead of the rear

[@BeardRubEnjoyer]

The over volted 2WD speed competition is a great idea! Best of 5! I'll have to try something similar with my brother.

[@jdnic1]

ok, i wasn't expecting the gearbox to hold up with that much power. if left as is, or on 3s modification, you have something that will make you happy for bashing.

[@gamercat7004]

Could it be the drilling of the motor mount that weakens the chassis. And broke in half.

[@qxi3646]

What a hilarious raffle 😂🎉 Here you get a brand new one, AND this totally bodged one we broke in the video 😅 Brilliant 👏

[@StarHorder]

it's so cool to see the wheels expanding in real life!!

[@1Thatstrangeguy]

I have a hell of a CA glue story. I know a guy who worked in a warehouse that supplied auto manufactures, One of the things they carried was quarts of super thin CA glue. One day a picker noticed two bottles were stuck together and on a high shelf. He attempted to unstuck the bottles while still on the shelf at head level when one of the bottles ripped and drenched his face and chest in super thin CA. Back to my friend who was working in the office when he heard a blood curdling scream, Him and a couple other people came running to the un fortunate man rolling on the floor, smoking and screaming with one hand glued to his face. Anyone who came close had their eyes stung shut with those fumes CA gives off. EMS came, had to peel him off the floor and take him away. Poor guy ended up getting some very nasty chemical burns across his chest and face and lost some vision. Also had a very bad cough for several months afterwards and said he couldn't taste anything. Moral of the story, Be careful with CA glue.

[@stephenlarkowski8186]

Hey Kev, my 8s xmaxx motor burned up. What would you put back in (outside of the stock motor again) with the mind set I like bashing not spending so trying to keep the weight down. Let me know plz.

[@Boogie_the_cat]

Try joining a Traxxas forum and asking them. I don't know how the Traxxas forums work, but on the Arrma forums I get an answer within two hours, any question I ask, as long as the question hasn't already been answered. So just get off your lazy a** and do a 5 minute Google search instead of bothering a KZbinr who can't possibly be expected to read the 1,000 comments on every video. Damn. Lazy. Part of RC is doing it yourself, and if you can't even do a Google search, you're probably in the wrong hobby. Lazy.

[@FISHYY_MTB]

Hey Kev, I was wondering if I should get the Arrma Kraton OR the Traxxas Maxx V2?

[@FISHYY_MTB]

I remember rc 34 yrs ago when a 9 turn triad motor was king 😅 we were like whoa 9 turn my god. Brushed garbage with nicd packs then nickel metal hydride with a mechanical speed control it was a arm that slid on a plate. Then came a digital speed control. Then yrs and yrs later brushless with lipos my lord. My first rc my a team associated rc10t then it had a nitro conversion that blew the dogbones were to short and fell out constantly the drivetrain had a chain and gears. Kevin by me a r8v10 ill give ya my s6v10 owned by mj fox with the original title im the 2nd owner. Its phantom black only cool part is Michael j fox owned it.

[@charvld]

omg that broken gorgon is a trophy!

[@drop-and-run]

Why dont you make them front wheel power so they dont flip?

[@Boogie_the_cat]

Front wheel drive would flip just as much because it's not just motor torque that makes it flip, it's the centrifugal force of the large wheels spinning. The same force is why "air control" works, even with nothing touching the ground, the spinning wheels will cause the car to rotate onto its back. FWD does not solve the issue. The truck is too light too small

[@drop-and-run]

@Boogie_the_cat accelerating with front wheels only pushes back wheels down. You can't flip a fwd, unless it's going in reverse

[@deltazero3796]
