Rapid isn't it, probably better suited to 2s with the 48dp composite spur. Had the same problem with 48dp spur composite spur on my Kyosho Mad Van after going brushless with it. With the stock brushed motor it would run all day fine, soon as I fitted a 3650 - 4300kv brushless motor I got all of about 2 seconds runtime before stripping the spur. Fitted a steel 48dp spur & all is good now.

I wonder what this can do with gearing up, we can have less wheelies but the speeds might be deadly

[@MPRCBBRR]

Such sponge! Much baking! Very taste! I'd love a doge cake 😆 Yeah gearing might help it ease into it. Its 99% the body parachuting though as the chassis doesnt have a floorpan like a regular chassis so the body just hangs over it on all sides and scoops air.

@@MPRCBBRR haha I couldn't find a name for my channel so I got inspired by the randomest photo in my gallery at that time also that sounds like another factor but still, I sense a lot of potential with this car. Maybe try clipping the body to the lowest setting, that would make it faster as well. And does this have space for the battery tray to be moved forwards? If I was a person that didn't mind spending money, I would've got one of these and played around with everything to make the insanest budget rc with higher gearing etc. I currently own a Bullet Flux, it is not the best speed wise compared to other series with the same motor and esc but it handles crazy good. subbed btw,

@@Cake_Doge we are going to try it without the body first :) they do an ST version which is a bit lower and sleeker. The battery tray is kinda the whole chassis bottom sandwiched between the plates! We can make it happen though! No strangers to speed here on the channel :) although this was never going to be a speed build we just like to test them as we review! Cheers for the sub! We'll post odds and ends between vids on facebook.com/mandprc

@@MPRCBBRR liked, looking forward to more content.

integy aluminium spur gear will do this car

[@gbreslin1968]

Find a way to put on a spoiler

[@03goldingd]

Got my sc version today, it was great, very fast drift wheelie machine for 5 minutes then the diff shredded, going to give it the benefit of the doubt as its such fun but pretty disappointed.

[@FirstChannel181]

How reliable has this truck been? Any issues ?

[@MPRCBBRR]

Just a stripped spur on the first run out, other than that it's been good.

[@andrewpodmore2440]

Could do with a little wheelie’ wheel on the back ? I wonder if such a thing exists

[@fettfan1475]

I run mine on 2s,its still insane, best out the box 1/10 for a while i reckon

[@seavee2000]

Always find your vids enjoyable and fun. My Ruckus wheelies non stop too, and it has a much longer wheelbase than this. Wack some weight up front!

[@MPRCBBRR]

We have some plans ;-)

[@deltazero3796]

That thing slides like crazy on roof @-@; Would 4WD make it more stable?

[@MPRCBBRR]

It is mostly the body, as the chassis is thin and tall, the body acts as a parachute at speed and flips. We will try to run it without the body on and see what difference it makes :)
