Arrma Limitless 190 MPH crash and burn

probably my most expensive crash yet.

[@vwturbowolf]

Sorry brother, unfortunately we send em knowing they may not come back to us. Sorry to see the loss man

[@theetonster]

Thanks brother.

[@MikeStallone]

The batteries are the scariest parts on these builds! At least they stayed near the car and you didn’t have to run into the woods to put out anything worse. On another note you’ve been killing it man

[@theetonster]

Yes, that is the downside of these lipos when you crash. That's why I make cases for them, so they don't get punctured. But this car I can't use my cases on the top of the car because they are then too tall. It was just unfortunate that the body came off and it slid on its top, dragging right onto the batteries. Thanks!

[@hmc.rc16]

From a loss all you can do is gain and come back stronger

[@rcbustanut2057]

😖😔 Man, sooo sorry bro!!! Crashes alone are bad, exploding lipo fire+crash is just a whole new level of ouch! Hopefully there's still a lot of parts that survived 🙏 When I saw my 1st lipo go up in flames, my heart sank, I said "crap, there goes the limitless!!". Luckily the lipo had flew out of the car before it went up in flames, I thought it was still in the car! 🥴 Same limitless I just flipped several times in the air this Saturday @ 135mph & it landed on all 4 miraculously & I was able to roll her back to me, no damage, well... I lost 1 screw! 🤦‍♂️

[@Basherqueen]

😱😱😱 Gosh, that was scary. Sorry man, that's not fun. I hope there was lot's of Basherqueen parts on it, because they are all covered by the warranty... Keep up the good work! 🙏🙏

[@theetonster]

Thank you Kimberly. I appreciate your support. Haven't assessed the damage yet. It's sitting outside airing out right now lol.

[@HolyCannolis]

Best wishes brother. No (car) guts, no glory. Amazing runs recently!!! Love how there’s always metal music when you have to hop in the truck 😆 🤘

[@theetonster]

Thanks. Theres always room for the metal! 🤘😈

[@JamesGrates]

Don’t let it discourage you bud we need your runs to keeps us trying for knew Pb s I will not complain again about our little crashes lol thanks for what you do from H and w rc racing channel

[@chadbiermann3380]

Sorry to see that. It sucks. I'm not a speed runner but I can only imagine the time and effort into building a car that fast. 😢 I'm sure you'll be back and better than ever. 💪👍

[@jamesmccoy204]

Damn , Hate to see that brother

[@theetonster]

Thanks brother.

[@dskofich]

bummer Tony, but you will be back better than ever

[@shaunodriscoll]

Wow! Expensive

[@kevinrc.marino2068]

Sorry to see that brother

[@PGBVlogs]

Damn hate to see it man not a bad last run for her with the 190

[@rattrax14.88]

Do you keep using the same kind/brand of tires that have blown out previously?

[@DoctorPPants]

Ah sorry man! The car looked really stable up until that point. It's almost like it got kicked up rather than catching air under the body and parachuting.

[@SpeedyBrute3]

Ouchie 😢

[@melvinvega1964]

Sorry to see that brother... We all know its part of the hobby!!

[@HAPPYJACKRC]

Man sorry to see that. What we do in this game 👊🏽

[@adamhill1216]

Damn!

[@jacobfelton]

Your fire extinguisher seemed pretty effective on the lipo fire. Was it a special type?

[@theetonster]

I just got an extinguisher for electrical fires from Lowe's.

[@mhector89]

Sad to see Was awesome while it lasted that's the price we pay to be #1 which you are still #1...One of the main problems dam tire blow outs

[@TommyRC]

Sorry to see that, come back and faster.

[@muhamadakmal7053]

Oh men😮

[@tedshickell7315]

Always check your fire extinguisher before you go to your running area

[@Onb3k3nd3]

atleast he had a second one not many have that

[@dangerranger3297]

dang it man that sucks hate that for you

[@RcTimes2055]

Damm bro thats bad... 😢time to rebuild 👍

[@FRANKIEGBANGEMS]

That was cool

[@poppabear946]

Yikes!!!

[@btsc1]

Someone needs to design a system that can activate a throttle cut when certain parameters aren’t met, like chassis angle or the amount of load on the front suspension. It’s crazy how fast things can go sideways when doing a speed run.

[@lepunkorbeau]

or the same security system of motorcycle pilot suit, hiside detector that activate a parachute, like on drag cars.

[@rattrax14.88]

@@lepunkorbeau I've built one for my car.... parachute ready.

[@remborc]

i recently came acros a video of a guy who programmed his aux wire from the xlx2 in such a way that the xlx2 goed on full dragbrake if it loses connection with the receiver. But it is possible to make something like that. I am no electrical engineer. But Raz has his PP (😅) witch is a small pcb and some electrical parts that works perfect. You can make something similar with a parameter check of choice that activates dragbrake. You can even run it on a secundary system with a small 500mah lipo. Mechanical E-brakes (servobrake on spool, parashute or something else by choice. In combination with a esc cutt off) can be connected to it but require more space to place hardware.

[@gerardosoler8935]

Dam that sucks 🤬 sorry that happened 🤦‍♂️

[@RCscottyZ]

[@SteveWB]

[@nolimitrc1]

Better off with the vte

[@thevintagehifiambassador8524]

so when you see your burning car, always think aboutthe burning hands of the housewife cleaning theirhusband’s toilet and washing his underpants. I hope I couldhelp you minor your sadness, hey be glad, you did theword record with a rccar.

[@thevintagehifiambassador8524]

let’s be honest: lots of women work for nothing at home,so it’s you time spent, your sweat and tears butyoudeserve more views and a sponsor that at least your burning lipo’s get paid, but never forget, housewives work hours are not paid either by their husbands, except if it is a good one, by serious love and care, ifit is a bad one, by a jewel every 5 years.

[@Onb3k3nd3]

how much damage in $?

[@theetonster]

Not sure yet. It's still airing out.

[@___Aaron___]

Bah it could be worse.. it could be mine 😄 🤣 😂 😆
