❤phil i know you already know this but... If you put the ramp in the centre of the white lines on the grass it makes it a lot easier to hit the ramp in the centre

[@liamstrange4939]

😂

[@Awnan]

If you hit the ramp then you’ll jump

[@MauzyrockRC]

I really liked adding Typhon shocks to the Bigrock. Much better. Great bash session!

[@gandaulf_fpv6925]

The backward's facing cam on the jumps is really cool!

[@Andykb-nz]

I made a super cheap ramp out of Corrugated Fluted Board, (real-estate agents use it as the for sale signs when you sell your house.)Any way long story short you can usually get it free second hand, it cuts with a knife or scissors, you just screw a couple of timber supports in & bam, you have a light weight stong ramp, at your desired width. No more missing the target Phill. 😅

[@FarmerFpv]

I have built one with a corrugated flute board and my Arma Kraton blew right threw it. I'm sure it's good with 1/10 scale but my 1/8th and 1/5th blew it to pieces. Maybe I should have doubled up on the ramp face.

[@Andykb-nz]

@FarmerFpv yeah I have an outcast 4s, my neighbor has a 3s granite, single layer did blow right through, double layer is indestructible, but still low weight.

[@machinedred]

Long jumps without breakages equals extra points 😊

[@The_Actual_CarlJr]

A while ago I found a portable collapsible ramp called killaramp on the bay. To me it looks like they were built from snow plows cut in half or similar. They had two different widths, luckily I got one of each. Since I bought mine I cannot find them anymore for sale anywhere but the video is still here on youtube if you search. I've hit mine full speed with a 6S Kraton and it loves it.

[@Addicted_2RC]

16:01 👀👀 👏👏 nailed the front flip with a twist reverse backflip!?!?!?!? Or at least something like that. 😂😂 Big Rock for the win imo! Shocks are a needed upgrade if you're really bashing the Big Rock. Great video Tomley sucks about the GoPro, I use the subscription service for cloud storage, device replacements and discounts 👊👊👍👍

[@emilymay2767]

Fill the cones with concrete, you'll be more inclined to miss them lol

[@gordousmaximus]

This is definitely a super fun vid great angles btw looks effen dope !

[@kashmurray1199]

That was fun. The jump just wasn't quite wide enough. It limited your ability to control them in the air I think. I've had that problem.

[@ronwalsh]

Love the rooster tails they are throwing.

Fantastic flying, Phil!!! 😂 Really awesome testing and comparison!!! Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

I designed, laser cut, formed and built my own ramp out of 2mm aluminium at my workplace with the kind permission of my boss. It's an awesome bit of kit and I even included some detachable grass spikes.

[@user-nv4xz2hy3r]

I love working with aluminum ❤😅

[@andrewentwistle9694]

@@user-nv4xz2hy3r There's nothing more satisfying than something coming together that you've created from what started off as a simple sketch. 😊👍

[@BeardRubEnjoyer]

Our fix for the ramp we built was to carpet it with exterior boat deck carpeting (looks like short, fake grass) and staple it down with a length running off the entry of the ramp, replacing the metal lip. It seemed to greatly reduce the shock of first hitting the ramp and gave beautifully consistent behavior. Really fun video to watch, cheers!

[@MittenpunKt]

I wanna see this ramp with a bunch of the hyper go series bashers and buggies!

[@michaeldorich4485]

I thought it was a great test. All three performed well. The HPI di very well. I was thinking before the the jumps that you are landing on wet ground which will be soft and nothing will break. That wasn't the case. II wonder of the wet ground grabbed the trucks when they landing and caused some things to break. Some of the landings were at odd angles. I like the plastic skateboard jumps. They are easy to store, no screws to come loose and they don't rot. This was a simple video, but a lot of fun. RIP go pro.

[@bigdadgigachad3042]

That ramp is JUNNNK Phil! You know Ramps are easy to build, you have an impact, so all's you really need is a jigsaw (very easy to use). For $175 you could build multiple ramps and choose the angles. There's videos all over YT, it would also make a good video for your channel. You worked on helicopters, building ramps will be fluffy cake.

[@LyhneRC]

Why are we not surprised you had the most problems with the Big Rock! We have had many issues with the shocks on ours (and other issues all over). And the cheapest car took the least damage, that will be our favorite

[@Hobz79]

I've lost count of how many times I've had to fix a granite shock. Usually bent shaft or it pulled out of the molded on lower rod-end

[@DelDredd]

Should have made your own ramp, the wood likely to have cost you a lot less than half the price of that mess. Would have been correct size you wanted as well.

[@mnakash77]

Those are great cars!Love my big rock, its the strongest of them all.

[@anthonysemaan8362]

How is it strongest of all?.I love Arrma but they are weak as piss.Every proper bash session they break or crunch diffs.

Wow they are making some profit on those ramps 🙀

[@Mr.NiceGuy80]

The quantum flew really nicely. The first one was impressive, but I think it was because it was tumbling in the air.

[@JamieKehoe85]

Im a big fan. Watch every vid and have right back to the garage days.....but..... it feels like a some of the vids are getting a bit similar... ie lets either take it down the skatepark and launch it or in this case a ramp or rip it up and down the dirt and it does X speed on Y cells. Dunno. Just sharing my opinion and still very much a big fan of the channel. Would love to see some build and mod vids (the huge truck is very interesting for example) or what about a top gear style challange.... £100 ebay challange youtuber race.. i realise coming up with ideas AND keeping up the volume of content for us lot is hard. You do a great job. I suppose thinking about it is im asking for my cake (regular content) and eating it (new and interesting ideas)😊 Come on Phil sort it out lol

[@TomleyRC]

This year I've decided to do less videos, but take more time making them. I'ver also started putting some stuff over on the 2nd channel ( www.youtube.com/@tomley_rc ) which normally would have been on here. So the 'mix' of videos its not as much as it usually it. Although, if you look at my last 10 videos... there is still a little variety

[@JamieKehoe85]

@@TomleyRC hi Phil. Very true i did just look back at the vid list to see if i was talking out my back end and there certainly is variety. Maybe im just anti bash lol 🙂 anyway keep up the good work and thanks for the quick reply. One thing i do welcome in any vid is your good comentry on the handling, i tend to find a much bigger difference in how cars handle vs speed and even durability ( most are pretty good on both these days) i tend to find thats the biggest fun factor for me anyway when you have a nice handling car and some are much better than others

[@andrewrc81]

Grass jumps are safe. Do the same on concrete😁

[@muskokamike127]

leave THAT up to KT...but I was thinking he could have done the run up on the asphalt and do the landing on the grass....but then if he missed the ramp he'd have the solid wooden bollards to deal with....

This was bloody brilliant Phil, sorry for the misfortune of absolutely whipping out the go pro ouch! I’m definitely guilty of laughing very hard when that happened 🤦‍♂️😂! Very entertaining shootout!

[@dexterbeattie7884]

I love all 3 great videos

[@NBC_NCO]

Here in the USA. You could go to a place such as Lowes or Home Depot and make a ramp from scratch thats 4 ft wide and about 4 foot long for the same price. Excluding your labor and battery charge cost. Not ment to put anyone down...just pointing out you can do things cheaper yourself.

I have the same question. I just got in to the hobby, full rookie here, and I think my GP would be too heavy for what I have. At least 2 heavy for jumps.

This is why I only buy Raha Ramps. They are designed and built in the USA and you can jump your full-size motocross bike off them. The prices are also good for how tall and wide the ramps are. They send you to the moon. The guy is a professional FMX rider who designs the ramps.

I have all 3 trucks & luv them all, the stand out for me though is the new Quantum2. The differences between this new Quantum2 & the old one it replaces is night & day, durability is off the scale now. Well done HPI, hoping to see more future models from them.

[@TomleyRC]

Yeah, it’s so good… and for the money, so much value

[@user-hg9sj9wz5v]

The big rock may have jumped the furthest, but IMO it performed the worst of all 3 which kinda surprised me. Plus it broke. The winner of this particular bashing session IMO was the Quantum. 🙌🏼

Thats what we call a RC CC. RC Cone's Carnage! ;)

[@buttracerrc]

@Tomley RC: Did you know, that the MAV has a Drag Brake on on Stock ESC Settings. This might explain the Nose Diving a little bit.

[@Ytytfytfujbyddutrxrt]

I have both the MT10 and Q2 flux. Both had a LOT of teething problems with stuff coming loose due to not being thread-locked properly. The Q2 Flux needs thread lock on grub screws each end of the drive shaft. I had 2 bearings at the front end disintegrate before I discovered this. The motor screws also came loose, but that was less of a problem, since it has a motor plate with fixed positions. The MT10 had constant problems with the motor moving causing the spur to either become too tight and make a screaming noise, or become too loose and strip off the teeth. This was solved by red thread locking all the bolts involving the motor, and also red thread-locking the pinion to the motor shaft. I then put some epoxy putty underneath the motor, so that the motor can't slam off the chassis and bend the motor plate anymore. The servo saver also self-loosens very easily causing the steering to become extremely sloppy. This needs to be super glued into a fixed position, but then there's no adjustment afterwards. Both cars had problems with the body posts smashing through the body. I solved this by replacing the stock body posts with aluminium bolts, nuts and nylon washers. Also Shoo Goo'd and fibataped the affected areas of the body. This makes all the difference. Other things that need thread locking are the nuts and bolts that hold on the turnbuckles for the suspension. Q2 has broken 1 front hub carrier - and there is no alloy replacement. MT10 has also broken a front hub carrier, so I upgraded to Fastrax alloy parts. MT10 has RPM arms fitted from new. MT10 has broken a few front shock plastic lower eyelets and I believe the upgraded shocks have the same plastic eyelet. I wish you could buy a version of these cars that has been sorted out by an experienced builder. With all the tread locking, epoxy puttying and all necessary upgrade parts fitted. The cars might be relatively cheap, but the spare parts and upgrades is where they get you.

[@sheiladavis2304]

Hahaha I see a bit of Kev coming out in you. I think you are starting to feel the phrases "when in doubt, air it out!!!" 😅😂 That was a very touching send off of the gopro. This was your biggest "full send" production. Also, did I miss the final installment of the apocalypse train/monster truck or is it still in the works? I'm looking forward to see that thing in its full glory crawling over something. Then shelling a zombie encampment. lol

[@wordreet]

Like everyone else is saying, if you paint a 3 foot wide white line on the grass and place the ramp at one end of it, that should help. Only have the MT10 out of these three, so I say it's the best, even though I broke mine first time out!

#TomleyRC great video and hope to get the Blackrock for my next purchase. About the ramp, now you have a template to make your own. Either same size or wider or change the height. If ya want I'd use bedliner for pickup truck beds on the ramp once the wood drys out. It'll make it durable and water proof. Great video once again 👍👍
