Arrma Vendetta & Infraction 3s Stock Speed Run 

Thanks a lot bro. I enjoyed doing this speed run. Not done any for a good while now. I have bought a much better battery now and we will change the pinions soon and see what the high speed pinion will get us. 😎

Thanks a lot Wil. Yeah, these cars are plenty fast enough on 3s. After doing this video, we went to a different spot and just bashed them and drifted them, its amazing how fast they accelerate mate

Thank you very much. Since this video, i have now bought one of the same batteries as my friend. Hopefully the issue will be resolved 😊

Cheers pal, just missing a Maverick in the video lol

Thanks Dirk. I was surprised that my ZEE battery was no good because I have used them for a long time and they have been good batteries. But on this occasion you can see that they were not good enough. So i have now bought the same battery as my friend was using, we will do the high speed pinion run soon

Thank you my good friend. We enjoyed the speed runs today. We will fit 26t pinion soon and do another speed run. Hopefully 70 mph 😊

Top vitesse mon ami 👍🏼👍🏼😊

Thank you very much. I enjoy making this video 👍

Thanks Ian, and yes, i have had to buy a new battery the same as my friends, dam 80 quid though lol. Cheers for the great comment, i always look forward to your comments Ian 😊

I have bought an awful lot of Zee batteries over the last couple of year because they have always been very good. So i was surprised that my Zee battery let me down today. But after doing the speed run, we went to a different area and then just bashed and drifted around. The Zee battery worked fine for doing this but as soon as you hold full throttle for a few seconds it died. So i have been and bought the same battery as my friends and it is now ok

Cheer dude. I will have to search them out. But over here in the UK we just dont have the same access to a lot of things like you do across the pond. I would love to come check out your hobby shops some day lol

This location is a very very big trading estate with the biggest units that you will have ever seen !!!! There are a couple of nice roads and stretches on the estate. I think the 70 mph run might have to be on a different stretch, this one might not quite be long enough, especially if the surface is damp. I not sure what the traffic is like during the week but at weekends its not to bad. The road only leads to one company so its not too bad at weekends

Did i say 4s ? Lol Thats old age for ya ha I sure i said 3900 though !!!!! It must be my accent

Yes Mark, since this video I have bought one of those Gens Ace batteries, the same as my friends, 80 quid 😕 But hopefully the next speed run will be ok now. 😎

I love it mate. It is really fast considering it is only 3s. After doing this video we went to another area of the industrial estate were we could do a bit of bashing and drifting. It was mega fun mate. Proper heart beating stuff lol. A few of us are coming back here on Sunday, we are having a speed run day. Bring anything and strap the gps onto it and see how fast it goes lol

Looking forward too much,, my Powerhobbys Battery’s have been really really good 👍 too

Thank you. We will change the pinion gear on both cars for the next speed run 😁

Oh noooo That was very unlucky. And expensive repair 😕

Did you loctite the grub screw when you put the 26 on?

I actually can't remember now lol. Maybe not because I am sure they have the safety gears on them

@tiborvon I made that mistake on my arrma big rock and luckily nothing super bad happened

Hello buddy. I think they are just the same under the shell. The tyres are the same too. They are brilliant road cars and drift brilliant too. I got a 31t pinion fitted into the Vendetta now but i not speed run it yet

@@tiborvon I love drifting my 6s Talion as well and my 3s Typhon with the 6s Typhon wheels. The 6s kitars from the Typhon May fit the Vandetta and they get a ton of drift time!

The Vendetta tyres are quite small in diameter. I bought a set of hoons for it. I have a 3s Typhon. I did a speed run with that recently too but have not uploaded the video yet. I use to have a 6s Typhon but i sold it recently even though it is brilliant buggy. But the Vendetta is defo a great fun car dude, you will enjoy it. The gyro works well too

When i watch the videos, i always think the same. But at the actual time, i dont feel like i do strange lol

Thank you. We enjoyed speed runs. Very cool. 😎

Thank you my friend. Yes, today the road was wet and it was also windy. I hope that i have better success on the next speed run. I have also bought a new battery the same as my friends. The next run though will be with the high speed pinion fitted so i will have to choose a dry day and preferably not windy 😊

This is the first time that we have had brushless road cars. So our knowledge is still basic. I think the Hoons Elevens that are fitted on them must be rated to at least 70mph but we have not tried this yet. The next speed run video!!! I also have an untested set of hoons with 17mm hex that are slightly bigger which i will maybe test on these cars too. I do believe there are several different brands that people use, especially when the are hitting well over 100 mph but i still need to do some research

Check this guy out

It would seem so. I have never had any issues before with the ZEE batteries but they certainly let me down today mate

@@tiborvon Yep them firma, ESC seem to run very well with Spektrum or Horizon approved lipo’s These Chinese brands they reject em but they work on everything else, I pulled it out of my My Vorteks and put Hobbywing in

I bought one of those Gens Ace batteries now, 80 quid, hopefully it will be ok

@@tiborvon Bloody hope so 😬 £80 Lipo not to be scoffed at

I know lol Needs must

Hello buddy. Yeah, 53 mph and 56 mph is pretty quick for a 3s car. But when the 26t is fitted then they should go much quicker. It also shows how batteries can make a big difference and since this video i have been and bought a Gens Ace battery the same as the one Chris is using in this video. But the infraction still beat the Vendetta by 3 mph for some reason. We will do another speed run video soon Paul with the bigger pinion fitted. Hope you all keeping good and well buddy

Cheers buddy. I have since been to Knowles model shop and bought one of those Gens Ace batteries. They are clearly much better than my ZEE one. Oner of the lads runs Gens Ace batteries in his beefed up Kraton 8s so i have seen them in action before. As for the esc, i dont think there iss anything you can do, i have not fully checked but they are only 3s cars so they are not top of the range or anything.

I enjoy speed run 😊

Thank you

@@tiborvon 🎶😆

Yes, i have since bought a new battery, the same as my friends, £80 😕

Thank you for watching

Hello dude. Since this video I have now bought one of those Gens Ace batteries. This road is on an industrial estate in Little Hulton. It was a Saturday afternoon so it was pretty quiet here. There is only one unit at the ens of the road that lorries attend to on this road so its not mega busy and it is a dead end too so no passing traffic apart from RC lol. Bizarre though, after this run we went to a different part of the estate which is better for just messing about and drifting. When i was just playing about and not holding full throttle for any length of time, the Zee batteries were ok, but as soon as i held full throttle they died 🤷 Yet i have never had any issue with Zee batteries before. And further more, i also speed run my 3s typhon today, using the Zee battery and it was fine. The only difference in set up really was the motors. Typhon is 3200kv and Vendetta is 3900kv. I made a typhon video too, thats how i know

Thanks a lot Dave bro. After these runs, we went to a slightly different place to bash them and drift them. Its amazing how fast these cars accelerate, even on just 3s, they are rapid mate 😎

Yes, my wallet has been opened since this video lol Those gens Ace batteries are £80 each ☹️ And as you say, there could be a number of reasons why it was a little slower. Hopefully the next speed run will be more successful my friend

They were 80c!!! So they should have been fine. After doing the runs, we then went to a different area and just olayed aroubd, drifting and stuff. My Zee batteries were ok doing this, throttle on and throttle off, blipping it and stuff, but as soon as i kept full trigger on for full speed, they died

Have bought a Gens Ace battery now so hopefully it will be ok for next run

My god Nickster. Those SCX6 are a heavy lump to have to carry lol you must have created some sweat lol

Yes, batteries make a big difference. Although i have never had issues with my ZEE batteries before, but it just shows that batteries do make a difference. Unless Spektrum have done something to try and stop us using cheaper batteries etc , i dont know, but the new battery i bought, the same as my friends works just great 👍

@@tiborvon Yeah carrying an Scx6 is a mistake you make ONCE. LMAO I have been running 3S 6500 mah 100c batteries. Two of em in parallel. Since then with a couple back ups in my back pack. lol

Good move lol

I was wondering why i am a little slower too because both cars are basically the same set up apart from the body shell. It was quite windy that day, unless the wind played a part in it some how with the large tail fin on the back of my Vendetta ? I dont know. But after this speed run, we went to a different part of the trading estate and just messed about, drifting and stuff. The Zee batteries worked ok for that type of bashing, pulling the trigger on and off, but as soon as ypou pull full trigger and hold it for a couple of seconds then the ZEE battery let me down. I have since been and bought the same battery as my friend has, 80 quid lol , so hopefully it will be ok. We will fit the high speed gear soon and then try for another run, hopefully hit 70

@@tiborvon You would think your shell would be faster but maybe your run was into the wind and his was with the wind 🤔 lol! Should be fun with the bigger pinion on it. ✌️😎👍

Like i told my friend, tomorrow is another day lol

@@tiborvon That it is brother! ✌️😎👍

Do it lol

Cant believe how fast these things accelerate mate

They were Zeee Zeee have served me well in general, but they were no good for speed run stuff. Gensace work well though

@@tiborvon oh ok, those are awesome batteries too! You prob didn't have enough capacity. I could never afford Gensace , considering it now lol

Genace are expensive

@@tiborvon yes they absolutely are, that's why I like Zeee lol

Lol

It was good fun today. I have now bought a new and better battery for the next run. I also did a speed run with my 3s typhon today so there will be a video of it soon. Thanks for watching my friend 👍

Thanks Duke bro, just shows that batteries can make a big difference. I have now bought the same battery as my friend so hopefully it will be ok now

Thanks a lot Leon. It was mint today even though my battery let me down. Although I have now bought one of the same batteries as my friends and it runs perfect

Cheers Beef bro. Yeah, they are pretty rapid for little 3s cars lol. We will fit the high speed pinion on them soon and do another run, hopefully hit 70 mph

Cheers Sam. High speed gear next time and 70 mph booooooooooooom

Thank you very much my friend. We enjoy running these cars. For 3s they are really quick 😊

@@tiborvon looking for the twin right now to me the green looks mean

Thank you

Thank you very much. I enjoy speed runs 😊

Cheers buddy. Next speed run will be with the high speed pinion fitted and hopefully hit about 70 mph 😎

Thank you. Yes, i agree. I thought exactly the same when i heard them. This was the first time that i had run the cars so it was also the first time that i had heard them. Loved it lol

These are 3s cars dude. Not 4s they are both totally stock, straight out the box. These cars come with 2 gears in the box. Bashing gear as in the video and then a high speed gear which we will fit and run in the near future, and hopefully hit around 70 mph. I have also bought a new battery since making this video so hopefully it will be all good next time out

@Tibor Von that's what I thought. You said they were both 4s at the start of the video. All good 👍

Ah right. I didnt realise i did that
