It is awesome how it corrects itself on jumps

[@rcplayer7581]

Congrats, its a. Really nice rig . im tempted to get one too

[@a.marvincausey5352]

Quality video once again. Almost considering a LOSI now. Thanks!

[@vapeapetn]

This will be my 1st Losi, ordered today!

[@ConceptRC]

Awesome video! Awesome RC. We love our DB Pro

[@JUICY_TIME]

Great looking😁👍 she is going to move on 3's for sure👍

[@brandonv4900]

Great car. Really need one of those.

[@aviano72]

12:57 Ouch ! Great info about this car

[@keithbates9912]

Losi for life💯💯💯💯

[@Bstiffbb1986]

Just recieved mine..loose steering causing bad toe out..a little slower than I expected but handles very well

[@redbeardrc1452]

These are sweet! Nice choice 👍🏻👍🏻

[@rcplayer7581]

I put foam on the wheel on the remote old traxxas remote works good

[@BOBO-qx2vg]

J adore ce buggy très fiable et rapide!👍👍

[@jdmikeg4]

** On the Tenacity stadium truck version** Cheap aluminum on shock towers. 100% chance the rear towers will bend. Design flaw, the rear bumper is mounted too high on the rear shock tower. Any hit to the rear bumper will bend the rear shock tower. I actually "upgraded" to the stock plastic rear shock tower. The front shock tower is fine and doesn't bend. Good luck all!

[@netcruzer]

Thanks for this real world usage report. That’s interesting.

[@RcBasherBoi]

@3:04 You forgot to mention the Losi Ten Scbe the previous Losi before they came up with the Tenacity and Tenacity pro. I happen to own the Losi Ten scbe (black&green) and its pretty much the same as the Tenacity pro, however the pro has the aluminum shocks and lights and the smart technology. It's a great looking vehicle.🤘🏻😎

[@1elaijah]

What metal caps on the shocks________?

[@bhegg]

Good video. Small correction: No throttle needed for the Traxxas TSM to respond -- at least not with my mini erevo vxl.

[@rcdriver107]

What is the grinding noise on the buggy?

[@jdmikeg4]

you can put a go pro mount on your radio. then record and drive at the same time.

[@rgr4475]

3s battery recommendations?

[@Bstiffbb1986]

What is that grinding noise you were talking about ?do u know?I have a brushless redcat and it sounds exactly like that right out of the box..bad diffs?diffs need oil?I'm clueless

[@STEVOD313]

Looks good John, didnt know u were getting one, congrats!

[@netcruzer]

I really liked it from the demo. I kept trying to buy the demo but my LHS won’t sell the demos early. Had to order it and wait. I’ve got more stuff coming too. Too much on order. 😬 💰 🔥

[@vapeapetn]

@@netcruzer still have the DB Pro? Any tips since had for some time man? Just ordered this today (Yeah I'm late)

[@jdmikeg4]

When you turn it on, it lets you know if you're running a 2s or 3s. Thats what the beeping is.

[@raquelsroom]

i really don't know why I have had 2 different issues with the reciever..

[@cashmiller2999]

How reliable is this on 3s? Does it grind the gears?

[@customdrums]

I love these desert buggies thinking of getting one for the track

[@vapeapetn]

Did you end up getting a Losi DB Pro?

[@customdrums]

@@vapeapetn no I needed up getting an Associated B74d. Love it.

[@RazorRC]

Nice pickup, such a good looking buggy. Seems like we own the same RCs - 22 5.0, Arrma 4S, Tenacity, Mavic Mini, 😀👍👊

[@locomotive282]

Does this mean you will be putting out a video on your DB Pro soon?

[@cwatson42785]

That plastic wrench is unacceptable. I actually used it on my new losi 22s st on the wheel nut and it literally cracked immediately. That could be a problem for newer drivers with limited tools. No reason they can't include a cheap metal 4 way wrench.

[@netcruzer]

Agreed. It’s a garbage useless tool.

[@vapeapetn]

Lucky I have a huge RC Tool kit at this point. But do agree 100%

[@cwatson42785]

@@vapeapetn Yeah same here but I'm thinking of the kid getting into the hobby. And you'd be surprised how many of some kids fathers have never turned a wrench let alone own one lol. That creates a problem for sure. Then they have to go off and buy something to remove them which you're kinda limited on tools you can use and would probably have to use a socket and then your buying a whole set. I'm just saying some small minor issue can turn into a huge inconvenience for some owners/families. I'm sure a small metal 4 way wrench instead of plastic would only cost them a extra 5 cents lol

[@vapeapetn]

Ordered mine today $499 with free fed X shipping, and excited. Ordered $310 of parts off jennysrc for those just in case moments. Have the "Fox" version coming. Will be my 1st Losi RC. Any suggestions since had for some time?

[@JanLeoKaak]

Just wondering: will the chassis accommodate a 42mm motor instead of the stock 36mm? I'm thinking about getting one and upgrading it to a 2200kv motor to run 4s. Thanks

[@vapeapetn]

Watched a few other videos, and several have went with the Spectrum 1900 kv or 2050 kv motor, and had no issues, except tires can't really handle 4S. 12mm hex just isn't enough. Plus Servo is a joke usually out the RTR box.

[@chrislrocks]

Great video! I'm seriously considering this... I was hoping it was going to be a big 1/10, but it looks kinda small.

[@netcruzer]

It’s short course truck size. Sweet spot IMO. Easy to take places.

[@vapeapetn]

Did you end up getting a DB Pro?

[@chrislrocks]

@@vapeapetn No I bought a Losi Rock Rey 1/10... Definitely was a mistake!!

[@user-dg1cw5ul9n]

Hello, I put 30000 drops of deep oil in the plastic spur gear on the center diff side of the Tenacity db pro rc car in the same car as the second car. Is there any problem with putting 30000 drops of differential oil?

[@netcruzer]

No problem. I’m not sure what diff oil weight they use stock. If you get a lot of power ballooning to the front wheels, go even thicker.

[@gohobby9934]

This is probably the perfect car for most buyers. This is what the slash should have been. The body design allows this car to fly through the air better. No parachuting like the slash. It's about the same size as the slash, so it's easy to carry out to the field and back when the batteries are dead. Plus it's built on the racing chassis. I just don't like the transmitter. It looks and feels cheap. I like the easy to work on layout. Pretty good support at local hobby shops, but still shy of the Traxxas offerings.

[@vapeapetn]

In 2022 they come with updated DX3, so way better imo. I Also don't like the Senton styled RC, look like parachutes waiting to happen. Something about large body car, and small wheels, just kills it for me personally.

[@ericstephany7305]

Very cool car looking forward to the other vids keep the good work up 👌🏻👌🏻😀🙂❤️👏🏻👌🏻🙂😀❤️

[@netcruzer]

Wow you're quick! Notifications must be on, thanks!

[@ericstephany7305]

Netcruzer RC TECH CARS yea lol always looking forward to you vids 😀

[@jdpasltrains]

Awesome rig with the led lights!

[@netcruzer]

Yeah they are bright on 2S and likely will be even brighter on 3S, they just plug directly into the Rx no fancy light controller.

[@jdpasltrains]

Is that metal spur inside the rig? It looks like metal.

[@netcruzer]

jdpasl yes it’s a metal spur

[@jdpasltrains]

@@netcruzer WOW!!!

[@joaovictorf.carvalho458]

@@netcruzer in effect, led brightness shouldnt change considering they are not connected directly to ur lipo, instead to the receiver, in ur tests did u notice any difference? Whats the run time with a 2s bat?

[@richardsanchez3060]

I'm about to pull the trigger on this and i need some batteries, what's the max amp draw with 3s? is 5000mAh 3s 30c good enough? love the review by the way.

[@vapeapetn]

I suggest the 50C or 100C imo, they not much higher, and will reduce cogging, and give better initial takeoff....Saving $6-$9 isn't a good deal if ask me.

[@skyeltz50]

If u have to pick one would you get the Lasernut or the dB

[@vapeapetn]

Depends on intended surface you mostly will use on. DB Pro has lower center of gravity so better on turns, but not good at dealing with larger obstacles. Keep in mind both have same wheels / tires...12mm

[@allan011285]

Hi, i'm newbie with Tenacity DB Pro and getting stuck with " Binding and Calibrating the receiver process". I followed instruction but it does not work for me. when i pull "full throttle" it will go with "brake/reverse" and vice versa. could you please help me out? thank you so much for your help in advance.

[@NTJ666]

Try flicking it to norm on or reverse on your throttle on the controller

[@vapeapetn]

Have you tried the ESC Reset, like 20 Seconds, worth a shot.

[@xezpra]

why is it when i go full speed the steering will cause the car to severely sway until it flips

[@netcruzer]

AVC is turned up too much, lower it to 20% or less

[@xthumprx]

How's the truck been running? have you noticed any play with the Spektrum Servo? I have the Tenacity T (green/white) which came with the S605 also and noticed some play with it. When I looked it up, its all plastic inside, next thing I plan on upgrading. Already upgraded to the full aluminum kit on mine after my daughter hit a column and broke the chassis, but it was a blessing in disguise because it really needs the kit.

[@netcruzer]

I’ve had no problem with the included electronics. Only thing I’ve done on mine is break rod ends.

[@xthumprx]

I haven't broken any rod ends yet, I did break a wheel today playing in the snow, broken the hub clean off. I liked what you did with the Proline slingshots, I picked up a set of Proline sand paws 2.8" to try out, Slingshots don't come in 2.8"

[@vapeapetn]

I ordered a new Servo, same time as ordered DB Pro, cause at this point I expect RtR servo to be garbage.

[@jamesgeorge609]

Does it handle better with avc turned off,,,,I’m surprised you didn’t try it.....

[@netcruzer]

Watch my track test video. 👍

[@vapeapetn]

I use AVC only on sandy terrain or gravel. Do not use AVC on high traction Grass, concrete, or pavement. I keep at 25% max

[@cwatson42785]

Hey John how have you liked this truck? Also have you seen the new tt pro sct they announced that's the same chassis as this? I'm thinking of grabbing it 😁

[@netcruzer]

I like it a lot, although I have broken something minor on it every run so far. Just shot a clip today and broke a shock rod end. Mostly because it’s winter/cold I suppose. Platform seems quite good. But it has a few annoyances. I don’t like the battery tray it doesn’t allow long batteries or easy height adjust. The new TT looks OK, same thing different shell. It should be acceptable to race in short course 4x4 class if you want to race. The DB pro looks better, has lights, cage, drivers etc but it’s not race legal in that form.

[@cwatson42785]

@@netcruzer Great points John. The TT has lights too. But I'm surprised about your tough luck with breakages. Seems others who own it have nothing but great things to say about it. In fact this is the first time hearing anything negative. That could be the cold like you said which definitely makes it a whole different ball game in the cold that you are in. Only reason I didn't get the db and am going with the TT pro is I already own the typhon 3s which is similar. Not as upgraded but still is a similar platform. I guess the tt isn't too different from the db with it being the same chassis but you probably know what I mean. Wish you better luck with it bud 🍻

[@netcruzer]

Chris Watson I’ve mostly been breaking rod ends on turnbuckles. Likely do to cold. Razor RC also said diffs and outdrive cups wear out fast on 3S. I’ve not experienced that yet but I only have a few 3S runs on it.

[@vapeapetn]

Did you grab a DB Pro, or not?

[@logantic]

Nice staring at gravel and grass most of the time yeah lol

[@locomotive282]

Replace the stock servo. Tighten down the servo saver all the way.

[@netcruzer]

I’m definitely going to tighten the saver, but couldn’t budge it by hand.

[@vapeapetn]

I usually go Savox 1210g servo $92, but when I ordered my DB Pro went with Servo out of Outcast EXB from jennysrc $43...Hope it plays out for awhile.

[@EXTREMERC416]

This prooves that traxxas stuff are overpriced

[@alankowalski8781]

Dude can you hit a jump or what?

[@vapeapetn]

DB Pro isn't really deemed a Basher, clearly a dessert runner, not a jump machine LoL...Wrong RC if want to send to moon.

[@theclutch19]

That gear mesh you deemed "good" is way too loose.

[@vapeapetn]

I do the old Paper Trick, works for me and pretty simple.

[@hammerhome7879]

I don't know why we waist so much time showing the remote transmitter in most reviews , its the fit and finish my 1987 Tyco Turbo Hopper came with. I understand the value is in the car , not the radio and thats great , gotta cut costs somewhere , but a quick flash would be sufficient.

[@netcruzer]

I consider what you use to control the RC quite important and worth a few minutes discussing the design and features. Most don’t change what it comes with.

[@hammerhome7879]

@@netcruzer I have seen a trend in Transmitter's on the last decade , even high end transmitter's look and feel like cheap garbage , we use to be proud of our expensive transmitter

[@vapeapetn]

Transmitter is important, it's how you drive the car. If it's garbage, you gonna think RC is garbage. I agree that it's easy to "Upgrade" but most don't wanna spend $99-$400 on a controller. Dx5 is expensive and imo junk compared to features of DX3 $99.
