Losi LMT Monster truck unboxing - best monster truck RTR?

[@jongonegone1262]

this truck oooozes gil losi jr. since hes been back at horizon, thank god helping them out. you can see gils racing history and the monster truck history built in. now everyone wants a brushless 5th scale version. nice video. losi gets the hits watches.

[@tonyspencer4379]

I run mine with a Spectrum DX5, Holmes Hobbies V3 servo and Puller Pro R 540-L V2 Rock Crawler Motor 2700kv. Castle Mamba Monster X ESC. With 3s it's a handful. At 1/4 speed a full throttle punch will stand it on the wheelie bar right up to full speed. On 4s it will do standing flips, wheelie so hard at half throttle that it'll flip and it'll run 42mph with stock gearing. I'm waiting on a Losi 25t servo saver. It's literally exploded 1/8 servo savers and reamed the teeth out of aluminum servo horns with pinch bolts. I'm running a proline 3427-00 crew cab ram body.

[@ncscs8815]

It has loads of power on 3s, I have beat the crap out of mine,nothing broken yet. Awesome truck. Nice vid.

[@bigandcoolrcschool294]

YES! So glad you got one! Excited to see what you do to it! 😁

Oh and how do you all most have 100 subs

@@christiansrcs7789 I don’t know! I’m really excited about it though!! I’m going to try and use a special camera for my 100 subscriber special! And I’ll try your horizontal filming technique! 😁😁

[@robroy07]

Nice review as usual 👍. Looks nice with the Bronco body. Would like to see some videos trying it where you make some backflips and all that kind of stuff that we all would do with it

[@christiansrcs7789]

That looks cool with the trx4 body on and I went to my hobby shop to see it and it is huge

[@bigandcoolrcschool294]

My hobby shop doesn’t have a lot of cars. Just the senton and stuff. It looks big!

[@sitlos.]

Can’t wait to see the running video. Awesome buddy. 😁👍

[@SebastianLong]

I bought mine as soon as it was released. It is very stout and a lot of parts look very similar to RCs some people would be used to. I've not used mine yet as it is far too cold for me thus far. Before I run mine I want to convert it to 4 wheel steering and put the 4s capable Lasernut motor into it. This thing from what I've seen is nearly indestructable. The axles break but are aluminum axles already out for it. Until a half hour ago I've never seen anyone break anything else. Was a broken 4 link end. As far as servo goes, there is a 25 tooth servo saver being released so you won't have to find a 23 tooth or run without a servo saver.

[@abramsdangerousadventures8045]

Just bought based on your review. Was looking for the next platform to build a truck with my son. Used your link, hopes it helps!!! Thanks again.

[@rcjoe406]

Nice to see you do a little bashing like me I just don't tell my crawlers ...imagine the capra with a flip up cage damn 😳

[@saltydreamsrc2786]

I got mine early January. I love it!

[@rc-daily]

Also the servo saver is 23 spline. I'd mount it without the saver with a raw 500 or something. Maybe a Holmes hobbies servo?

[@robertobassi1843]

Video molto interessante ed utile sicuramente hai descritto bene le varie caratteristiche di questo mostro incredibile..sto pensando di acquistarlo 🤔🤔🤔..

[@jdsrcs8061]

I agree with others!!!! The bronco body is killer, use it Fran!!!!

[@cjv29er]

I prefer the LMT Roller option.

[@Art-zs6sl]

With you 100%. The Roller has possibilites

[@toprcmodels]

Great video. Love these kinda videos.

[@charlesmccoy5463]

Don't get me wrong though you're still the most intelligent RC guy I've seen on KZbin And you're not annoying Take it easy bro🤙

[@toddbertram6556]

I think with some aftermarket billet axle housings the losi is a great off the shelf monster truck. I have seen several housings break, but I'm sure people are beating them senseless. The 3 piece pinion side of the axle housing is a very poor design, i was surprised to see it.. im sure people are abusing them for sure but breaking axle housings is a no no. Driveshafts, some cage parts that is all expendable stuff, but the housings need to stay in one piece, and i suppose i mean that literally, ha. Your rig looks good with the bronco body. The torque dampened is a nice feature, I cant imagine running those tires without it, old design but no need to change it. Looks just like the internal of a rear motorcycle hub.

[@ChrisGorman87]

Hey Francis I’m seriously considering buying either the losi lmt or the axial smt10? Money is not part of my worries as much as durability and parts availability. What would be your choice?!

[@sprather84]

Awesome job Francis great review

[@RCReviewChannel]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@royhuck4636]

That truck is awesome not a grave digger fan I loved the avenger truck and then game changer Jim kohler came out with the 57 Chevy my all time favorite. Please rc gods come out with the 57 Chevy body I might have to sell a body part to afford lol.

[@jonlaird5082]

I really like these trucks and plan on picking 1 up later on but my first mod is gonna be wheels and tires and ditching that wheelie bar in the back. I don't get why they did the 2.6/3.6 style wheel and tire as it completely ruined the scale look in my opinion. Other then that I think they really did a good job on this truck.

[@rc-daily]

Change the motor and you can actually run 4s. Iirc 4s overspins the motor by a few thousand rpm.

[@TheGibsOfTheTube]

Is this thing a lot more durable then the Axial? I saw some reviews on the Axial and it seemed pretty fragile which is disappointing. I have my TRX-4 but tho6a monster truck would be awesome for my kids but if they can obliterate it with mild bashing that sucks. The Losi SEEMS like it has some stout axles.

[@beyondgreenthumb7224]

Amazon.has roller kits. Plus ready to run losi lmt

[@WilsonsGarage330]

This channel does the "absolute" best rc reviews hands down

[@couchetard4414]

great build! you should do a livestream or a video of the building part !

[@isiahanderson3001]

Where can I find that body at

[@scottishdouglas4214]

What ever happened with this love your reviews and was looking into this

[@laurencechristie1959]

This looks phenomenal, build kits are better than RTR! Where can you buy the kit in the UK?

[@mynameisfrank6519]

No kit for losi either roller or rtr. Roller is better because all the electronics will need upgraded any way. The servo sucks and the motor cogs really bad on the rtr.

[@paulclancy2404]

True 👍 but the body also a 100 , so for extra 200 you get alot , I run mine Gd on 4s

[@Ssstilte]

Put in the jx ecoboosy

[@Off3er]

Never liked the classic grave digger look, i love the subtle clean chevy or ford bodys instead, the one you had looked way better 😁👍

I would like to have one but I don't have the money. I drive a 18weeler for a living

I'm Indonesian, I like this, the car is nice, I Want to buy this car but I don't have enough money 😭😭😢 , I pliiiiiiiiiiiis

[@charlesmccoy5463]

650 ur better off Is with complete truck. the body alone is over 100 and the motor and ecc is worth 150 u can use it for something that it is good for. Out of every video u have This is the only thing I disagree with you on 😞 sorry bro rollers are way too expensive you're better off buying a complete truck and you can have the extra parts for something else You could even take the motor in ESC and trade it up or put some cash with it and get a better one. It would be a different story if the manufacturer just Subtracted what it cost for those parts that they don't give you Which is what they should be doing some of these rollers is just straight highway robbery.

[@rc-daily]

Axles are terribly weak. If you like to bash around you may as well go ahead and get the really axles on the way.

[@CroceaMors]

Give me 1 of your crawler please.

[@koenoder4323]

Ima just put this out there for the Axial Fanboys LMT is so much better than the SMT10

Wow losi on rc review. I got mine. It really changes the game. So much fun. More into crawling but love the monster truck stuff. It's addicting.

[@BlindGuyRc]

This is a awesome truck. I have been debating this or the Ryft. Great video.

[@kravenkrawlhobby5438]

Everything is sick as can be.....but I just can’t get over the wheels. Makes it look like something that got scooped up at Walmart. The tires are sick as far as tread but the Walmart wheel just doesn’t do it for me and that is literally the reason I haven’t bought one yet. Can’t change the wheels because of the way it’s setup. Everything else is beautiful though.

[@rc-daily]

It's also just a rubber dampener inside the transmission.

[@WilsonsGarage330]

I love it this things sick I shall have one

[@bigandcoolrcschool294]

Love the intro! 😁😁

[@bradpetersen3098]

We need a comparison video to the axial smt-10 grave diggers!

[@CZ-kz7ug]

Very nice review! Looks like an awesome machine.

[@bobsennick7403]

Pretty sweet! I think I'd do the Reefs Raw 500- thing is crazy responsive. I have a Protek 170sbl in my Lasernut that would probably do great too. I'd lean toward the roller, but I think it'd be lower down my list after a couple other crawler builds.

[@jessicalatex2539]

After watching ccxrc run his.. there are weak points but it's a huge difference between this vs the smt10.. which is okay in stock but to go bigger. Tyres brushless.. it will then need a chunk load of money to get it to be bulletproof... Especially if you're truly using it like a real monster truck... The Losi from what I remember the wheelie bar had an issue but think that was a one off.. the diffs were the issue cracking.. to which he tried a carbon fibre brace. Which saved the differentials but not the brace. He now has treal RC diffs. Which took the punishment..

[@paulclancy2404]

Axle housing Jessica it holds the diffs and axles , I broke mine too but more or less from being cold , those treal axles cost almost as much as the roller . 180 a pop , I just beefed mine up with epoxy on the insides

[@jessicalatex2539]

@@paulclancy2404 I've been looking at the Scx24 . Costs more than the car to go aluminium diff housings. Transmission. The overdrive. Shocks beadlocks pretty much buying a full car. And more.. . It's like looking at vanquish products $$$..
