LOS364000 ALUMINUM SWING ARM INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE LOSI PROMOTO-MX

[@nicholascanjura5051]

Hands down this is the best RC motocross machine ever

[@mickfitz76]

So good I ordered both colors

[@carlokun]

I hope they will make aluminium wheels for this. That would be sick.

[@Wanted1069]

Marchisini Magnesium rims!

[@superstock9261]

They would be heavier and probably bend, maybe it would be a display part

[@1TruePatriot]

@@superstock9261 If they were steel (or aluminum?) spoked wheels, I doubt the wheel would bend?

[@ColdStoneRacing]

Rc_driver already bent his wheels and broke the support holding the forks on to the frame.

[@speedgears1236]

I think the spokes are metal. Because RCDriver jumped it and bent them.

[@giraffeapproved]

Your team should be proud of this thing. It seems absolutely incredible! The fact that it has a real chain and sprocket is so cool.

[@thatsmyrc]

This is so up my alley of must get. From my mx racing days to a fabricator on rcs. What a show piece off the charts thinking went into this bike 👍🏼

[@thatsmyrc]

Now you need a sound for this kit losi 😉

[@mbaseytjf]

I’ll Jump on!!! Being in the RC world for the better part of 35 years. From my Losi Jr x2. In 1989 To my Pro moto. This is hands down one of the best machines Losi has put out!! I just took delivery of a host of Aftermarket Parts for mine. The build is in progress!!! Bravo Losi. BRAVO

[@FrankA-973]

Can’t wait for colored chains and aftermarket wheels and graphics kits.

[@RunThatRC]

This is definitely in my wish list. I'm a losi fanboy for sure and this looks promising!

[@kylewalker1703]

Only because of your videos is why I'm buying all the upgrades for this motorcycle I just can't wait to get it now if you could do all of the aluminum parts and make videos of them installation I would sincerely appreciate it

[@garrettbinder2662]

Sweet bike, I pre-ordered one already. Also great video and perfect how you led this tutorial. Very smooth and on point.

[@EJ-74]

I have the old Ricky Carmichael dirt bike, its s bit bigger than the Losi, I've been wanting to upgrade all the electronics for a while now, hopefully this will inspired me lol, I saw a guy upgrade the same bike to 3S and it ripps hard!! So glad to see Losi come out with a dirt bike, Love the wheelies 😁

[@1TruePatriot]

Have you considered that by installing a MUCH stronger, UNFLEXIBLE swingarm, that that just makes FRAME DAMAGE more likely, as the aluminum swing arm will just transmit ALL the impact forces to the swingarm mount and the rest of the frame?

[@robmule4647]

You're worrying about nothing, the rear shock with 21lb spring takes the force from the swing arm.

[@hichkakdeemo5413]

@@robmule4647 That's a bit of a simple way to look at this. The pin that holds the swingarm is a transmissionaxle as well. That axle will take more impact with the stiff swingarm. The smallest amount of deformation will lead to binding and wear. Whatever way you look at this, there are forces and stresses which the shock does not absorb and are increased by stiffening the swingbar.......

[@robmule4647]

@@hichkakdeemo5413 but they aren't worth worrying about as seen in real motorcycles over the last 50 years.

[@Bogues_88]

I got ally swing arm haven't put it on yet .. has bigger bearings than Losi one .. made by GPM

[@eminstinct4114]

@@robmule4647 rc are very different then the real thing lol so you shouldn't compare them but i do agree it shouldn't do to much damage

[@frankroot3890]

My favorite option part!

[@hichkakdeemo5413]

By putting threadlock in advance on the pinscrew you put in at 10:40, you risk leaving threadlock in the hole and create binding while it needs to be able to rotate freely

[@JRMNone]

The price of the old RadioShack 1/4 RC Ricky Carmichael Dirt Bike just went up. Glad I kept mine (I have two).

[@mainyakmainer7162]

With your aluminum replacement hubs you need aluminum rims with carbon fiber spokes

[@jimnardone32]

This thing is a beast! Look forward to pulling the trigger on it one day.

[@arcturus1616]

Cant wait to see the aftermarket aluminum wheels that come out for this. Someone will make them.

[@lexsteel12]

I have two X-rider bikes. They use a similar flywheel design to this bike. They are grear bikes. But, so far, I like what Losi has done with this bike. For one, I ike the fact you can control the rpm on the bike with the remote. Second, I like the battery compartment design they are using. On my X-rider bikes, I am limited to the types of batteries I can use. Because the bikes battery compartment is meant for a cube shape battery. There are not many cube shape Lipos out there. So, I am limited to the battery that came with the bikes. I am looking forward to this bike. I will definitely be picking one up. I hope Losi comes out with upgrade parts for the bike.

[@LosiRacing]

im still waiting for financial assistance from the lender to purchase this at $599.99 its a great time for losi to have these prices in america !!! thanks gil for puting in the affordability word at horizon.

This bile looks amazing, but the UK price of over £700 ($1,000) is crazy. £500-£550 I would have been tempted.

[@robertwright6539]

I need a video on how to rebuild the top end

[@andrewmagro7703]

i am so glad that i have never bought a bike from any other manufacturer and been put off by poor performance and build quality because from what I have seen so far with this Promoto MX from LOSI is simple smashed outta the park the running is smooth and thanks to the gyroscopic design and the looks of a real scale bike at 1/4 is now what i am going to get myself thanks Losi for being a great provider and up there with parts and quality.💯💥

[@ryanrodriguez70]

Why can’t we get larger or smaller rear sprockets to change the gear ratios?

[@Bogues_88]

Well not much room for larger front sprocket and smaller rear chain way too lose .. I could sure do with 1 tooth bigger rear sprocket cos damn chain stretched so much

[@Todd_G_FPV]

Losi... please make a extended aluminum version and longer chain combo pack! 🙏 thanks for all the awesome toys! Been converting my mini b to to a drag racing machine haha i put a brushless kit thats almost twice the size of the stock motor and a 30amp hobbywing esc with a trx tsm receiver and i fabed a wheelie bar and put a 27t pinion, she rips!

[@justmike.4920]

Nice helpful video! What electric drivers are being used?

[@waynegilchrist3535]

I like everything about these bikes but the price. Having said that, I also believe they should have aluminum swing arms for the cost. I have always been a losi driver since the early 90's. But I purchased a tamiya clodbuster gray edition and wild willy 2 instead with another spectrum radio.

[@the_minimalistic_adventure]

The price is not bad for what you get… this new bike is a game changer.

[@basherbodies7285]

how about a vid on glueing the proline tires to the motoX rims?

[@SIDESLIP]

I need to know about that cordless driver. I really need one of those. Please let me know what it is?

[@Patrick-e4w3d]

I'm hoping for heavier aluminum wheels too, these bikes a pear to nose dive in jumps, a heavier rear wheel would increase pitch articulation, not to mention trick rims would greatly increase the popularity of the badass bike, just imagine milled chopper type rims or spider web mags on this.....

[@mickfitz76]

Put a lead wheel weight under the back fender. 5 grams should be enough. Even squeeze a fishing sinker flat

[@Bogues_88]

It doesn't nose dive

[@Bogues_88]

It all depends on your jump and mode .. I can control the bike in the air .. do a big jump front wheel way up and split sec b4 land tap break land perfect flat .. nose is down pull the trigger !

Staggering. It's just like working on a real bike.

[@zanderflander7880]

What do you have to fix that obnoxious screaming sound the bike makes? It’s worse than nails on a chalk board!

[@KingMrBigE]

Only problem with adding more metal is that it generally makes it less flexible and shit starts to break that normally wouldnt...

[@terryperrott8567]

It looks more like a real motor cross bike. If it would be possible at all to be able to have the rider slide back a little so if your going through whoopty doos you would have more & better control. The reason why slide back a little is to transfer some weight back so you could skip across the tops of them .

[@clintonkojro299]

If this thing got a 3s upgrade that would be insane probably be too much to handle tho
