Just tuned in to this Beauty🤔💪🏽✊🏽💯🤤😎. Great info my Brother!

[@HaydadRC]

C McCotter1 Thanks for watching! For the price it’s been pretty good, although the body isn’t real tough🤣 The 3s run was a real trip! I wish I could get more runs in of this, the Fazon, and the Piranha but the weather is ridiculous 🤣✌️

[@redbeardrc1452]

Looks to handle pretty well. I wonder if that body is PVC, not lexan. Usually those PVC shells break apart fairly easily. Nice first run vid👍🏻👍🏻

[@HaydadRC]

Thanks bro, besides the body, all was good! The body feels thinner than others...✌️

[@ShenRC]

😃👍Cool it worked good! the body looks like one of those kinds that cracks easy.

[@HaydadRC]

Yessir, I also noticed a fair bit of the paint coming off already lol.🤣 Thanks so much for checking in Steve!✌️😊

Looks quick I'm wondering if they purposely put tires with minimal tred on for sliding and drifting or is the drivetrain weak and can't handle grippers ? Hope it turns out to be a better rc than the roof jumper

[@HaydadRC]

It hooks up well, the tires are relatively soft; softer than most rtr’s. The drivetrain, at least upon the first run seems beefy enough! Thanks Jim!✌️

[@danielblack7469]

Is this the brushed or brushless version?

[@HaydadRC]

Hi Daniel!👋 This one was the brushless version! Thanks for checking it out!👊😊✌️

Hi! Can you tell me max speed of this car? You drive with nimh? And can it work with lipo 3s?

[@HaydadRC]

Hi and thanks for watching! It can run nimh or lipo batteries although the esc is only rated for 2s. You can run 3s but do so at the risk of damaging your electronics and/or battery. I got this car up to 33mph with a 3s. I felt it had more to go but my space is limited.😊✌️

[@baadman_1233]

Ok thanks for answer me! Nice run ✌🏼

[@gonzodetroitify]

What... This is stock, or mods made to him, good watch tho

[@HaydadRC]

Hi and thanks for watching! This run was completely stock! I appreciate your support!😊✌️

[@bluesimon13ify]

How fast is it out of the box

[@HaydadRC]

On 3s I hit 29mph on a short stretch...with a longer stretch, I’m sure she would’ve hit low to mid 30’s. Thanks for watching!👊😊✌️

[@bluesimon13ify]

Thanks for the quick reply,😀😀😀

What is it top speed?

[@HaydadRC]

Hi! I’m not sure, I haven’t run this car in a bit. I finally have a speed meter, so if you can wait a bit while I charge up a battery, I’ll let you know!
