LOSI Promoto MX Gets Sent Over A Park Bench & Running A Assfault Track. Will It Break?

[@johnnyluk8695]

Your daughter got mad skills, she gets from her dad! I love how you trash talk her into trying it out Moto MX!

[@RCPropaganda]

thanks for these videos. Seems it has a lot to over come if people wanted to race these side by side

[@islandrc-duke1972]

cool bike and run,great information

[@Bluecuban71]

Great way to get her to operate it 👏 😅 It's definitely a fun bike and takes a beating ! She didn't do bad , she is a natural 💯 Great video

[@spenn2007]

Yes!!! one of my favorite RC YTers is back already. What kinda crash am i going to watch this evening? *Rubs hands*

[@benjaminhunt2395]

Wounder if someone will come out with solid rims looks cool

[@michaelvankirk3576]

Thanks!

[@earlmoorhead5555]

Appreciate the support thanks 🙏

[@jerryhughes6844]

The losi - bobblehead.😝🤪😛 When you make jumps it's the mirror - effect you gotta turn the other way?

[@toysforboysrc]

You’re doing good tho!… seems once you know how the bike behaves, there’s ways to manipulate it. I still have strong faith that there will be a V2 of this dirt bike! I also have strong beliefs that there is going to be a street race bike! The knees on the race bike rider can serve as the “Training wheels” when it leans in on the race track just like in real life situations. Super fat wide rear tires for those steep sharp angles… come on baby bring it!!🔥💨

[@henryfoster3212]

Hey nice work on video today keep up good work Earl Moorhead 👍🍻💯🍻

[@earlmoorhead5555]

Thanks

[@jimpalazzolo6013]

The steering going opposite really messes you up on the landings like you said. It needs to recognize when you’re in the air so the steering is oriented correctly. I find it odd it turns this way, I grew upon mini bikes and motorcycles. Seems like that’s it’s biggest problem besides the brake dragging. I’m still excited to get one.

[@jmrcs2935]

playing with the mx dial in each mode helps but like to said switching mode to mode and adjusting the mx all at once us tough but it's a learning curve

[@robertshelton2605]

Looks fun to me. I'm probably getting one when my budget permits. Looks like there is a learning curve. I will say try a RC Plane, stopping is impossible until you land.

[@earlmoorhead5555]

You can glide and the throttle stick seems to stay locked into where you leave it I ran planes as a kid but yes nitro planes where a lot of work so surface is where I ended up 😮😂

[@robertshelton2605]

@@earlmoorhead5555 All my landings are actually crashes. 😆 I love to go to lakes and fish, so I think I'll get a RC Boat soon. Hopefully not submerge it, because I'm a bad swimmer

[@earlmoorhead5555]

Lol 😂

[@jeremystewart1785]

Definately gonna be a learing curve for everyone..different modes tweaking the settings to find the spot that works best for what your running in. That could be a turn off for alot of people. I like a challange.

[@RoostedFilms]

On the tracks is where I thought this RC would shine. I still on the fence about this RC. I appreciate your honest reviews

[@andrewmagro7703]

Amazing the way it jumps the park bench seat and looks like modes 2 and 3 are on point for the area you where in Earl, hope to see heaps more in the coming videos cheers brother

[@earlmoorhead5555]

Thanks

[@CCxRC]

Great video Earl. I’d have stayed in mode 1 for most of this terrain especially with jumps. It is dirt mode, but it lets you throttle up more for jumping and get that front end up, but not in the gimmicky wheelie mode way. Mode 2 is going to limit you lifting the front end. Bent spokes is a definite bummer. You did great with the berms

[@earlmoorhead5555]

Thanks 🙏

[@L2theWcarscoffeelife]

turn the ms6 rate down that will give you less gyro and more lean :) Keep it in dirt mode they said that gives you more throttle for jumps

[@earlmoorhead5555]

Yes tried all the way down and all the way up during these runs including all three modes 💯

[@terrykuehn2686]

Hey Earl! It looks like the less you know about running the Losi Motorcycle the better of you are at it! I've seen that on several channels kinda crazy to me! It seems to me when I was watching you switched modes the first time it worked better when you guys had throttle control and you need to take a close look at the front Break caliper issue I like them Great videos and content!😉👍📹💯✔️👋👋👋😂🤣😂

[@earlmoorhead5555]

Yes as wheelie mode seems to jump way better in dirt and asphalt as the first dirt jump videos was on 3 as well crazy 😜

[@stevejackson3564]

I wonder if you can slow the gyro down to find that happy spot between being able to turn shap & stay upright. I know someone might be able to accomplish that. Either way a track will have to be designed for it.

[@earlmoorhead5555]

Yes if you want to be competitive for sure

[@did3d523]

you have to tilted yourself the bike in turn like reel bike (same in reel bike in slope if you dont tilt the bike continue to be to stand up straight) you're confusing it with a car that has 4 wheels, you need practise that is not a car, adjust the side rollers to a lower height so that they can run again .💗💗💗

[@jeremymiller2340]

It's a pretty thing. It has a feel of novelty instead of a fun rc- if that makes any sense lol- it's not for everyone- I honestly believe the hype will go away. It slowly seems to be as I read more and more comments of people saying basically the same thing it's not for everyone but with outside another terrific video brother! You always speak of the truth only a few of the KZbinrs that do that so once again thank you brother I can't believe somebody would run up and steal somebody's RC car that's crazy that's a video all in itself right there brother😮

[@carlosvelazquez4649]

Great video, Chloe did pretty good for some one that didn't want to try it 😅.

[@spenn2007]

I have watched nearly every Promoto vid on youtube, with most recording and driving with one hand, and no complaints. Just keep practicing, and stop blaming the RC lmao.

[@JIPPERR_1]

Getting the real facts here, the promoto hype is over!! I tend to watch the guys head on these vids, rattling back and forth all the time is distracting. Gonna ruin the looks in slomo too. So planted after that big bench jump though!

[@jayb.london5464]

How about to modify it to adjustable speed of gyro esc via additional aux channel and knob on TX? Jay B. ;)

[@earlmoorhead5555]

Idk someone will try we know Losi worked on it for awhile I’m sure some testing was done to find a good spot for it at least I hope they did 🤔😯🧐

[@mattreetz3361]

Body English is necessary for real world dirt bikes, the gyro seems to do a great job of keeping up right but stops the trigger control from letting you slide smoothly through (or out of) some turns... that's why I've been questioning gyro adjustment...hard to explain it....

[@earlmoorhead5555]

Yep

[@carstenl87]

i think you are mixing up your modes... mode 1 is dirt, mode 2 is omroad/wheelie suppresion, and mode 3 is wheelie mode

[@jimaiken1167]

The first video I’ve seen where the person running it doesn’t love it. Love mine.

[@Jordan-xe6hj]

Hi, just to let you know mode one is dirt mode mode 2 street mode and mode three wheelie I just bought my promoto and I was confused about that too

[@timdoyle8199]

I think if you either increase or decrease the the assist wouldn't that help in some of those curves and angles ?

[@earlmoorhead5555]

Tried Mx button both ways

[@EZRider723]

Careful when you reach for the battery connector, you might burn your fingers on the pipe! 🤪

[@earlmoorhead5555]

Lmao 😜

[@jasonschwartz80]

Really like watching your vids, my man. Real honest dude. With all the delays, I’m thinking about waiting until a v2 comes out. Looks hella fun, but if I have to wait until Jan 2024, why not? A street bike would be pretty awesome too! Or one to match my Fatboy. Ha! One step at a time I suppose. I saw someone on YT actually cut the fingers off an neoprene gardening glove for the elbows.Looked pretty good IMO. Love your pro tip on the boots! Keep up the great work. Respect your honesty. And as an aside, couldn’t agree with you more on the politics of California. -Jas

[@earlmoorhead5555]

I agree I feel Losi on a v2 version might be able to set up this gyro better so we have more control in the air on the ground works great 👍

[@randall4411]

Now I know why I don't want this RC . Thanks Earl .

[@Norm2120]

I saw on Amain’s video that if you adjust the stabilizer bars you also have to adjust the gyro not sure if you did that or not. Pretty sure I’m gonna pass on this RC. It’s definitely cool but needs some more R&D

[@shadowbird]

Hi what is the brand of tape you use for his elbows? I don’t want to mess up his suit with sticky tape what do you suggest?

[@earlmoorhead5555]

I showed it at home depo it’s M3 brand

[@bakerrv]

It looks like the track and areas you are running on are really not designed for the bike. I think when more of them are out there in the hands of the hobbyist, then we'll see some tracks designed more for this bike and until then I don't think you'll see it's full potential on a track. Have you tried adjusting the knobs that tune the gyro responses? Maybe less is more or the other way around??? Just a suggestion, I am still waiting on my backordered Promoto MX.

[@earlmoorhead5555]

Yes needs a track design for it 💯👌

[@earlmoorhead5555]

Yes I been playing with all the adjustments to find what works for what areas just time setting it up for one area at a time

[@jasonbrawley3925]

You really had someone steal your R.C. like that?? This world man... Damn

[@earlmoorhead5555]

Yes one of my speed rc on a drag race pass guy rode up from the desert on a motorcycle and tried to grab my rc that was out of range luckily I got range just in time to hit the trigger and get away I posted the video about 2 years ago

[@spenn2007]

He's in Commiefornia, you don't OWN anything there, people steal whatever the hell they want.

[@RcPlayer-tt2vw]

One time , I was playing front house , my daughter bus stop few houses to corner , I grab her come back and rc gone , only people drive by me was landscape truck who was now on opposite corner , still radio in hand , I asked them didn’t want just accuse and no one seen anything, I pull trigger and rc buried in grass hidden in back truck Herbie “ slash “ I went little ballistic after retrieved my rc . People suck man

[@earlmoorhead5555]

Yes

[@myaccount6487]

Was that on one battery?

[@marksaxton4760]

What would happen if u cut the voltage to the gyro a bit.

[@earlmoorhead5555]

It would slow down as I’ve been experiencing and drives different

[@marksaxton4760]

To see it might control some of the wobble you are experiencing. Like you said it interferes with turning and jumping.

[@marksaxton4760]

Great job 👏 love your appreciation for detail. 😊

[@mattreetz3361]

Can't you dial down the gyro some?

[@earlmoorhead5555]

Yes been full directions up and down didn’t do much for the banks

[@RON4RC]

Got to say I don't like the bent spokes business I didn't see any, like hard hits on the previous vid.....jumps yes but nothing crazy. 🤔. I really am enjoying watching it run tho and your experience and thoughts are interesting to hear. Chloe has been running rc for a while and she doesn't seem to impressed. Maybe the constant running after it is annoying. The more you run it you'll get used to it I suppose. But a great vid as usual Earl thanks...

[@earlmoorhead5555]

Yes I wasn’t jumping hard as I’ve learned on the first one I ran seems slow and steady works best 🧐I to was surprised to see them bent while cleaning it up

[@jsnjcnt]

She did pretty good for the first time driving it i think. That gyro thing is a little weird. If the wheels were weighted on the outside in the tire area it would probly be alot better. And disable the gyro thing. Lead weights in the tires might be better

[@earlmoorhead5555]

Maybe or a tire that absorbs more

[@jsnjcnt]

@@earlmoorhead5555 yeah a little more cushioning on tire.

[@robertbennett848]

Maybe you need to turn the opposite way when you are on an embankment or side hill. It is hard to do . To turn the wrong way in the middle of a turn.

[@johnnyhaberfield721]

Earl,I was thinking there are more videos of this machine than the amount of these machines available.By the time the backorders reach the UK,folk will think they are the rider .Lovely Losi letdowns.I think it looks stupid anyways.✌️

[@earlmoorhead5555]

I get it when you UK guys get them hopefully you can try one before purchase I felt the same when Losi dropped 14 videos in one day I was sure it was over hyped up even tho I ended up testing one before I bought mine I can see it not getting used much very fast I still enjoy the xmaxx better for my style rc bashing 💯

[@johnnyhaberfield721]

@@earlmoorhead5555 love ya Xmaxx videos. recently it was a welcome change to the novelty 2 wheeler Hype.I felt so left without this Losi ,that I Zip tied my grandaughters Barbie doll to my Kraton XL. I did feel very Trendy that day. lol.✌

[@rastanonascension5246]

Two stones finger of eight turns , bring the rock in close when gets easy,.. Watch James Stewart racing , check how they break and rip around the corners ❤

[@bryanharen8212]

My brake shoes broke first run, I took them off and my bike does a lot better. To me the front brake is not necessary

[@earlmoorhead5555]

Yes I agree it doesn’t do much

[@spike--]

🍻 try it without the guy on it

[@zerrickdracing6784]

I think it would do better on 3s no Gyro

[@zerrickdracing6784]

I want to see you tear into that bike

[@TheSpeedrunRookie]

🤙🏽

[@myaccount6487]

So much whining. 😂 I’ve watched a few videos now. I’m thinking of buying one. The biggest problem at the moment is the track. People are running these on bmx tracks and rc car tracks. You would not run a formula 1 car on a rally course. This bike needs a track built to suit it.

[@Paul0088]

Run time seems pretty good on the track 🎉

[@InterstateremovalsAuFurniture]

The negative, nit picking, winey Karen like commentary is so out of character for you mate ... What's the go? I'm almost done as I can't handle your outlook and delivery. I respectfully say this Earl and apologies in advance for my shit if that's what's going on here but please keep an open mind as you are an amazing fair and genuine person as I seen but something has changed...... Has it not? The bike is an absolute miracle and huge advance in 2 wheel RC, just remember that.

[@rastanonascension5246]

Walk , stop it wen to far , use foot to carry on wen u catch up ,, your children ,, no to drugs at all times even to fit in to a group of new friends they meet , class a drugs are heavily linked to trafficking 🐸🐸🐸🐸🐸🐸bodys😢.

[@earlmoorhead5555]

Huh 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@nofreerides7033]

So your title has a typo …asphalt is spelled assfault 😳😳😳…man this things requires too much attention by the looks of it kinda glad I didn’t pull trigger just yet … spend more time picking up than running it 🤨🤨🤨 time will tell … at least you can still get your daughter out cause mine be like it’s too hot 😂🤣😂

[@earlmoorhead5555]

Yes assfault is a term I’ve used in a meme before at this location 👌basically meaning I’m driving stupidly in the video

[@readeracingRC]

Amateur!

[@earlmoorhead5555]

For sure 💯

[@Heli_Junkie]

I hope you don’t make it a habit driving the Losi at the bike park when you know you’re not supposed to be there. You live in Santa Clarita.. there’s tons and tons of other places to use it. Stop burnin the spot with your vids.

[@earlmoorhead5555]

I’ll continue to be free and do as I like 💯
