ALL NEW! Losi Promoto-MX first in the SAND DUNES

[@drivenrc]

I don’t think I’ve ever seen an RC take over the internet like this. That thing is awesome!

[@RCdune]

I agree, this is the coolest rc to come out ever! People who didn't care about the rc world are now a part of it with this dirt bike! We LOVE it!

[@drivenrc]

@@RCdune that is so accurate. I have a buddy that used to ride Motocross and he doesn’t follow RC’s at all. He sent me a picture of this new RC before I even knew it existed lol….hopefully this will pull him into it.

[@Almarri644]

I got it

[@echobeefpv8530]

This is going to be the biggest RC this year and next, IMO ! No way Losi is going to be able to keep up with the orders. I'll get mine in the second batch, I never buy first run of anything, but be sure I will get one !! Very cool video, thanks !!

[@glennjthompson332]

Wow!!!🤯 This rc dirt bike beating thru the sand!😅

[@andrewsexton5625]

I like the audio of the real bike overlapping the shots of the RC. Nice touch! ✌️

[@FarmerFpv]

We need a rear paddle and a front mohawk tire to really make it dance in the sand! Mohawk front tires have made a comeback at Glamis and Pismo. The handling is incredible with the new Mohawks. For those that are wondering a Mohawk tire is a slick with a raised sharp point on the center of the tire. It looks like a mohawk, lol. It keeps the front tire from washing out in turns cutting the sand like a knife in the middle of the tire but floating over the sand at the same time. It basically acts like a rudder. San Rails have them too.

[@RCdune]

Someone has reached out to us with a 3d printed paddle! Be on the lookout for a video as soon as we get it!

[@calephillips-pu4kq]

Little to much Adderall for the day huh?

[@juanplascencia3034]

Make your own... take a regular tire and a knobby knife and shave the knobbies to make ur own mohawk

[@RCdune]

@calephillips-pu4kq Nah, just excited about the rc man. That's pure excitement at its finest 👌

[@RCdune]

@juanplascencia3034 That's an awesome idea! I've done that in the past with slash knobbie tires for my sand drag car, I'll definitely be doing this for my dirt bike. Thanks for the advice.

[@davistyson1]

So glad to see y'all still rocking and rolling!!

[@RCdune]

Thank you 🤙

[@gregzielinski]

Thanks for sharing. So awesome to see dune footage so soon!

[@RCdune]

Thank you! We are very fortunate to own an rc store and live right next to the beautiful oregon dunes where we do most all of our filming, this new losi rc motorcycle is absolutely amazing!

[@carjeep3750]

The sand footage is amazing!

[@RCdune]

Thank you 🤙

[@aussiedigger1441]

I just maiden my thisafternoon and man it's really fun! I fly helis and planes and they can be alitte stressful sometimes but man this thing put a locked smile on my dial!

[@stevekeiron30]

Awesome video! Completely agree with the paddle tyre, with a stretched swing arm too. Would be amazing 😎

[@RCdune]

Yeah buddy!!!!

[@themidwestconnect]

Gotta watch running those battery cables outside of the intended routing through the exhaust as the suspension can allow the tires to chew your batter wires up. If your running the spektrum batteries they fit perfectly however ive seen people use other batteries with a lil dremmel work and can still tuck them away. I love my Promoto! By far the best release this year and I rank it up there with the Xmaxx as far as must have RCs!!! Best wishes!!! 💯

[@RCdune]

Thats great advice, thank you. I agree I love the promoto!

[@GeddyRC]

Also it was awesome that you ran on the sand - you may be the first video on this bike in the dunes and it looked awesome! Once they get some paddles available I’m sure it’ll be a game changer.

[@RCdune]

I agree, I also needed to adjust my front brakes as someone else stated in the comments. I noticed in the video that it was dragging in the sand a little bit. The front break really isn't necessary in the sand anyway.

[@Deathsneeze007]

Thanks for sharing guys! Was sick in the dunes. Can’t wait for a paddle. Looks like adjusting those bumpstops up helped a ton! Have a Kawi green on order. Cheers guys!

[@RCdune]

You're welcome, we are verry excited for the paddle for this!

[@AllenKennedy]

Your paddles are in the way. 😊

[@RCdune]

@AllenKennedy We can't wait. Well, do a video as soon as they come in! I've been holding off on playing with it too much because I don't want to break it before I get the tire lol. We can't thank you enough for doing this!!!!!!

[@grantterzano8213]

Where can we get a set of paddles for this??

[@kjkareemslim]

so far one of the best videos

[@theheatmagazine]

The camera play between toy and real rider was sick

[@RCdune]

Thank you! That was Mrs rc nuts magic in editing!

[@AJHoover]

haha love the gopro audio overlay!

[@rcguygarage]

Rear paddle tire would be MINT for sand👍💯

[@RCdune]

Someone is making a 3d printed one, and we'll be trying it as soon as we receive it! Be on the lookout for a video with the paddle tire on in the sand!

[@raymondwatt8687]

Damn that looks fun

[@travisgross9570]

When its tumbling forward hit the gas.. i dont have mine yet but ive watched every video lol

[@tomstarros3189]

keep up the good work.

[@crawlersncustoms]

I was waiting for someone to rip it in the dunes! Definitely needs a paddle out back and a ribbed up front.

[@RCdune]

We have a 3d printed paddle in the works, and hopefully, proline comes out with a set soon!

[@Anthony-os8id]

It looks like good exercise.

[@RCdune]

The best excersize EVER! lol

[@Dirtbiker4life]

Took mine out to the dunes yesterday aswell, performed way better than expected! Def waiting on someone to release paddles

[@ant933]

I saw 1 guys review where he took it to a pro BMX race track. It ran so good that I started looking for RC dirt bike racing circuits.

[@boatwerks]

Awesome video guys

[@AnglingWithRaymond]

That’s so cool

[@DS-oi4wl]

Little Jeremy Martin is ridin' verrry well...

[@EJ-74]

They should definitely make a sand paddle tire for this thing, Awesome bike, I have the Ricky Carmichael dirt bike, I'm thinking about replacing all the electronics with the electronics from this bike eccept the gyro because the gyro is in the rear wheel on the Ricky Carmichael bike. Awesome rip guys!!

[@porroco]

It has lot of torque to be able to fight the sand, now we nee to see it in mud. Hey do you think thar bike with paddle tire will be able to water skipt?

[@rfiskillingussoftly6568]

The thing has the same back tire on it as my dirt bike..mx52 medium/ hard! You need to put some 2stroke sound for it!!! As a kid, I would have been losing my mind! Great video man!

[@RCdune]

Thank you! It would have been amazing with 2 stroke sound! We just used the footage of our 16 year old son riding his 2023 yz250fx.

[@rfiskillingussoftly6568]

I literally only watched to 15:54 ....I didn't know you put sound to it!!! Lol!!! Sorry!

[@-.O.-]

Must be nice to be able to ride your dune buggies and dirt bikes out to the dunes to play around with your rc dirt bike! I heard 3S will not work with the gyros tho.

[@RCdune]

So maybe we need to bec the gyro and run a bigger system to the motor??????

[@-.O.-]

@@RCdune It probably can't even handle 3S and will be uncontrollable but it looks like you can upgrade to a 100C from the 50C at least. Wonder how much higher it can go up to. Maybe 200C?

[@-.O.-]

@@RCdune Looks like some people got 3S to work now by putting in a 100A Spektrum ESC and upgraded BEC for 3S/20A.

[@andrewupsidedown]

A paddle would definitely make the experience more fun in the dunes

[@RCdune]

It definetley did!

[@daviddillon6794]

Cool video!

[@katana2665]

You'll need a sand tire on the rear and a little more power, but it definitely has potential for sand. Try it on that surface without the sidebars too.

[@AdamSaltFPV]

Great sand footage! It’s not 3s compatible, at all (for now). When you turn it on, you have to let it sit to calibrate the ms6x for like 5 seconds.

[@RCdune]

I did realize that, lol. I really wish this one was 3s. My sky rc sr5 is 3s, but it handles like complete garbage, lol. Someone will make a good 3s upgrade for how popular this bike is. It really needs 3s power in the sand. We've had someone reach out to us for a 3d printed paddle, and we can't wait for it!

[@AdamSaltFPV]

@@RCdune as it stands now, 3s is not an option. This thing is more like a drone, than a normal rc car. So the change in voltage (keeping the flywheel 2s) needs to have all of the pids, rates, and filters to be remapped for the higher voltage. Until we get access or someone creates their own betaflight fork, we’re stuck with 2s. You can however change the gearing and possibly the motor to a higher kv. Once you find a way to get traction in sand, this thing will be a blast!

[@mugendrewable]

If you run 3s you'll smoke the motor that spind the gyro. Paddle tires are in the works. Also the balls need replaced with small skis.

[@rccrawlingaddict207]

I think the training bars could come off if you play in the sand. Cool run......new sub.......thank RCGirl!!!

[@RCdune]

Thank you and I agree with taking them off in the sand. Thank you RCGirl!!!!

[@GeddyRC]

I figure it’s only a matter of time before Proline puts out paddles for this thing.

[@Thebipolarachiever]

That’s funny the remote makes the Stranger Things sound until it links with the bike

[@motok1d]

How water resistant is it?

[@RCdune]

Haven't really tested the water resistance of the bike yet.

[@mikejurnak0324]

Cool video I just found you earned a sub 👍🏻✌🏻

[@RCdune]

Thank you 🤙

[@brsrc759]

Freaking badass!!

[@grantaspenwall6805]

Tracks or a paddle tire paired with some skis to replace the ball ends on the balance bar and this thing would rip

[@tm5123]

Wonder how fast Proline will whip out a Paddle tire for this thing LOL

[@RCdune]

Hopefully soon!

[@joerutkowsky3261]

Where’s the yellow Suzuki. I would definitely get one if they had that.

[@brianhoefer7148]

Greetings from Coos.

[@RCdune]

Howdy!

[@andynguyen2862]

The sand is really slow and it can’t get up though

[@jessiechandler1875]

Definitely need a paddle tire Traxxas better step their game up this is epic 💪💯

[@seanshark86]

Is that winchester?

[@RCdune]

Florence, goose pasture area.

[@TheWhippetmaster]

You need to mount the ski to the riders foot, so his foot is out in the turns holding the bike up when needed. Not having the front brake trim adjusted, or being in the right mode cost you a bit of hiking lol,, maybe read the instructions before running it again.

[@RCdune]

I didn't read some of the instructions but that's silly nobody reads the instructions haha, it's a simple turn of the knob to adjust the front brake I knew about and just got caught up in the moment, there adjusted now and might actually be removed for the sand as there not needed because the sand just stops you. Skis are a great idea and I will try that out or at least remove the training wheels all together and see what happens?

[@briankinch2503]

Paddles and a longer swing arm Will do some damage on the dunes. Came across someone 3d printed a longer swing arm for more stability...

[@chaoticadventure]

First! Awesome bikes!

[@RCdune]

Thank you, this is one amazing rc and we've had about 10 battery packs through it with no problems so far other than a balding rear tire haha.

[@EJ-74]

Do not run 3S on this bike, the gyro cant handle it from what I've heard 🤔

[@g00gleisgayerthanaids56]

We need fpv footage on these things!

[@RCdune]

I have a fpv set up, I'll see about mounting it on the promoto! That would be awesome!!!!!!

[@JurneMolina]

Bro bro bro hear me out! Can you please do a video with them both together. Yes, we know they're diffrent beasts but also diffrent price range. Everyone talks about the old Sky RC SR5 I'd love to see them head to head. Plus it 'd be great video idea as well! Awesome video btw love thee content

[@think2cre81]

So nice , hey could you please share what was your pre-order date ? And then how long was it before they sent you an email with the shipping information? The what date it arrived? .... because it's looking like we could be in for a very long wait . And horizon hobby will not share any information about how long the wait will be now . They just say no ETA and then cut off the conversation. I believe they have only filled 10% of the pre-orders . I'm trying to get enough information that I can make an educated guess on how long the wait will be . Thank you

[@adamformanack318]

Fucking Fuck Yes People, These little rippers are cooley as fuck😎👽Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha ,....thats fucking funny man thank you

[@kjkareemslim]

need some paddle tires

[@yellowhammersuwake1617]

Paddle tires u be good

[@Snipeuout69]

Proline if your watching lets get a paddle for this thing !

[@RCdune]

Yes!!!!!!!!!!! PLEASE 🙏 🙏 🙏

[@jamiefox8670]

Try to run it without driver!

[@josephsteel8512]

Would probably rip with some paddles

[@RCdune]

It does, here's our video of it! kzbin.info/www/bejne/fprNlqmepL6ffa8si=BR-JXKCXSFOmrlW7

[@tomstarros3189]

make your paddel tire..3D...print a re.cap..tread....bond it to that nobby ...rite on top .....or make that tire on the bike a snow spike tread...use it in the sand.......just saying...

[@RCdune]

The 3d printed paddles were from akrc products, I do not have a 3d printer, I would just get the proline paddle if I wanted another one, but I like the 7 paddle 3d printed tire. I really dont use it much in the sand anymore because the sand gets in the gyro and has to be taken apart and cleaned out too much.

[@America-he5tz]

Those licensed parts is what makes the product so expensive. Being ripped off by corporation names

[@RCdune]

But the bike is amazing, sucks the price point but with the gyro and the ms6x helicopter inspired all new reciever, I think the price is not too far off.

[@did3d523]

sr5 look more fast.. must be a video wiht 2 bikes in run

[@RCdune]

I agree, also my mx400 dirtbike. They both are capable of running 3s bit are so so so much harder to use lol.

[@bikelifewithalex120]

get the paddle wheels and she''ll prob do better out there.

[@scottyahol]

They are called dirt bikes for a reason. It actually sucks driving a real dirt bike in sand. Just bogs and doesn’t feel good

[@RCdune]

I guess it depends on who you are, my 16 year old son is absolutely amazing on his dirtbike and rides that thing everywhere out there and jumps it insane too. I can't ride a dirt bike for crap and it would take me where it wanted to go lol. It's just a talent to ride in the sand that I don't have. He rides a new 250 4 stroke and it goes absolutely amazing out there. He has a paddle tire for it but a lot of people on dirtbikes just use there knobbie in the sand.

[@petebusch9069]

Looks fun for about 5 minutes, get a real bike.

[@RCdune]

Guess you didn't see my video with it next to my 2023 yamaha yz250fx. Just one of my bikes😉 Maybe try not to be so rude in comments, and thanks for helping the youtube algorithm with your comment that you had no idea what you were talking about. Have a nice day🤙

[@petebusch9069]

@@RCdune Oh I forgot I'm dealing with the generation who can't deal with people who voice an opinion that differs from theirs. I'm not being rude, I'm being honest. I watched your video, saw what I saw and it looks very boring. If you find that offensive then you have a serious confidence problem.

[@johnnynitro7523]

God Bless China...!!!

[@Lussuosoclothing]

Way overpriced

[@adrastos123]

Losi needs 2 stop makin this crap

[@carjeep3750]

The sand footage is amazing!

[@RCdune]

Thank you! There will be a lot more and we'll be getting a paddle for it soon hopefully. Someone is 3d printing them.
