I love my Lasernut: Tekno M6 Axles; stock tires re-glued on Proline Raid 17mm Hex, M2C SCTE 17mm adaptor, Power HD Servo……..its 16-17% better in every way than all my other cars!!
I grabbed a lasernut during an early spring sale and got a huge discount. So happy that i picked it up, and so far have only had one minor part to fix for about 2 bux (knock on wood) imo its a great car, and am becoming a fan of the 4s vehicles. Great info, and that backyard is an rc guys dream. Cheers
I have always been in the school of.. finding the edge of an RC's limit by going over the edge and when it breaks.. the next time out, dont go over that edge intentionally ..but things happen when "bashing", ya break it , ya fix it , thats why we have multiple RC's so when you break one, you still have others to run while waiting for parts .. lol
I seriously miss my Lasernut now. Always liked the tire on the back since I set the punch high to make it wheelie. Maybe one day I will find a used one and have some fun with it again. Of the few rc models I have owned the Lasernut so far was the best city basher.
Hahaha. That box seems only 16%-17% of the original mass. 🤣 The box seems to be making a 160%-170% appearance. Might need to see if a decimal was misplaced. That track is nice. I might rent or borrow a tractor until I decide which one I’ll buy to get my home track started. Those jumps and banked corners (without those rocks) are perfect.
I love my Lasernut. The spot where I bash doesn't have any jumps, but is a combination of sand, small bumps, and lot's of rocks. I tried bashing my Tamiya Wild One there, and it was bouncing all over the place, flipping over, and eventually a gear stripped in the drive train. I took the Lasernut, which is bone stock, with no upgrades, and with 4s power out to the same spot, and it just soaked up all those bumps, and rocks without a sweat. Even when I pushed it as hard as I could, it still ran like it was on rails, and I never felt like it was ever going out of control. I'm thinking about getting it's smaller brother, the DB Pro buggy, as it looks like a fun vehicle too.
Love my lasernut but its a 8th scale truck with 10th scale parts,my dog bones twisted and snapped, the hex's inside the wheels stripped and rounded off,bearings disintegrated and tore up diff casing, but i do love it😀👍👍
Awesome bash guy thanks for sharing hey Good idea for good outside rc bench is a big wire wheel from electric company set 4or5 bricks underneath good to go just rite height 😀 oh an u can put umbrella in the center hole
I think it handled pretty darn good… and wasn’t overdriven it was right at home … just breaks happen and somewhat impossible to catch everything… almost got this vehicle versus the DBPRO … track looking good 👍👍👍 spare tire gonna be put to work 💪💪💪 oooohhh and watch those pin screws at drive cups come loose often 👀👀👀
Love getting one of those boxes it really exciting 🤩. I use your driving to judge how durable a car is and if it is still worth purchasing after your fine workout of the Rc 🤓
I say the heck with the 1%ers. I want to be the 16-17 %er. LoL 😆 nice rip in the back yard. Sometime in this hobby when it breaks that is the moment when you have the biggest smile because it did something awesome and that ultimately was what broke it. Maybe your driving ability increased by 16-17% 🤗
@@rcguygarage Hey Boss.... Have a Losi Lasernut and have some wheel issues also. I have some other 12mm hex wheels I can put on, but the stock wheel hex is too shallow. I need a wider hex that will still use the stock Lasernut pin to hold it. I have no Traxxas rigs. In one of your videos, you used a Traxxas wheel, and I believe the Traxxas wider hex so the wheel would fit. Since my replacement wheels hit the hubs, I want to try your Traxxas wider hex. Can you help with the model so I can find a part number for those hexes to put on my Lasernut, Sir? Really appreciate the assistance, and thanks for the video so I know!
@@rcguygarage Thx Boss... Since the two are exactly the same, let me take a gamble and order some they might work. Stock for the LN is just too thin exact same as the DB Pro which I have also....need a thicker hex. I have a set of SSD 2.2/3.0 rims on it their 12mm hex on SSD is deeper so need a wider hex. Thx for what you do keep the hope up for guys like us 50+ ...you may not be, but we are seasoned I should say, LOL
@@ParcoUpchurch They are the same but not the DB Pro is not as long or tall and it makes a big difference if you decide to try to use the Traxxas wheels it'll look like you're running 12-in wheels on a 700r mountain bike if you get what I'm saying
Great video. I had 16 to 17 percent more fun than on the last vid 😂🤪🤪 especially after watching earls funny last two videos (intros) I’m wondering where your zippy ties are. Never bash without them 😂😂😂
man i do miss having a basher. ive got a few 3s packs sitting here but i dont have a ton of money. i kinda like sentons but after my big rock i swore id never buy another arrma. what to do.....
The sneaky Arrma is funny as 😂😂 Did you ever have any trouble with the rear driveshafts on your Hyper MT Plus 2? I bought the +1mm ones and set the links to factory but they still keep trying to rip the crap out of the cup. It's only on the one side aswell and it's so annoying!
A lot of people know that I have thoroughly thrashed mind but I haven't driven mine in quite a while so I can't remember where I'm at but the trucks stock tires and wheels in my opinion are slightly too big and heavy switching out to their 17mm hex which I do have I just haven't installed yet I think does cure some of the issue
@@rcguygarage Cool thanks man, I've just put some brand new stock wheels and tyres on it so i might just sell them and get some badlands or trenchers instead and see if it helps
You definitely ran it hard. Looks like a ton of fun. You would think 17mm wheel nut with those tires, dosen't make much sense. What about the db pro wheels on the lazernut? You can hear the squeaking from the bearing the last 4-5 minutes of the run. Really bad the last 2 minutes. Fun to watch ripping around your track!!!
Not at all! Sometimes it may consider what's called a refresh of certain things but that's normally only when the vehicle is going to be down for parts I will analyze the rest of the RC and see what it needs.
It all depends upon your ramp the jump that I've got has two arcs one is designed more for height the other one is designed more for distance the distance one almost needs no correction except for a maybe a tap of brake the other one with the steeper Arc normally kicks up the rear end so you've either got to try to overpower it with throttle if you hit it wrong or press the brake to get a forward flip but on that same side if you just leave a little pedal in the trigger you can bury it just as the front wheels leave it's all timing not as easy as it looks but you do get better with practice because what do they say practice makes perfect
Rc cars do break,I have to Say that I really like my WL toys buggy I can beat the thing and not worry about breaking it like one of my Arrma trucks, I really enjoy my granite and Black Rock but really have fun with the low cost beater.it’s really fast responsive and fly’s.
Almost everytime I take the Lasernut out it breaks. Right when I think it’s ok something happens. The pinion keeps coming loose even with lock tight. Broke 2 sets of shocks & it’s only been out maybe 7/8 times.
@@Basher45RC I'm not saying it's a bad RC. But the video you're commenting on was bashing the RC how it shouldn't be. Your name as seen says Basher45RC. It is a very nice RC if you plan to be nice and semi reserved with it. It'll take a beating and it's parts are good. It's DIRECTLY associated from my favorite the DB Pro however they extended the chassis, increased weight and height while keeping the DB Pros parts.
The friction from the axel you installed is what caused the heat to melt through the tire, because it was a tight fit to begin with, maybe if it was 16 to 17% percent less contact with that axel hub, the temps would have been more compatible, maybe!!!
Very well then, Maybe if that "Game Changer Fan" of yours was moving 16, to 17% percent MOOR air flow throughout the chassis, you might have avoided stripping out the wheel hub, that's at least a 16, to 17%, sound thoery!!!
@@tyshiddejuremanbey1313 given your calculated theoretical analysation of the impending issue concerning the lasernut's offending inconclusively determined failure you may be only 16-17% correct in your hypothetical hypothesis 😳🤣😂
@@rcguygarage Let's stay at this, because i'm quite sure the sultion resides well within the scope of 16, to 17% percent, the scale of probability is well within range, indeed!!!
@@tyshiddejuremanbey1313 16-17% is giving you better odds at tipping the scale one way or the other. The question is what way do you tip that elusive seesaw of 16-17%
Bigger Wheels on a 10 scale that had smaller wheels on it bigger power is spinning those bearings and with a little bit of lack of maintenance causes overheating and I felt it I just thought I was losing my mind
Usually the inner bearingb guy , it's so much thinner than the outer , I'm going go rip soon , I'd rather get out earlier too but noise on Sunday mornings travels well lol
I don't know about Losi. I like the designs, but i've seen many videos where Losi vehicles (DBXLE 2.0 for instance) break on first run, and i mean break. Just not convinced that they're bulletproof. I mean, nothing is bulletproof, but if you ask me, i'll stick with Arrma.
And just like you said nothing is bulletproof but that's what's great about having Ford Chevy Dodge Nissan Toyota and Honda that way you the individual with the cash in his/her pocket can dish it out and get exactly what you want or at least pray you do
I'm guessing you haven't seen my thrashing of a stock dbxle 2.0 I am very pleased with mine is there breakage absolutely but well deserved and as I'm sure you're aware sometimes it's luck sometimes it's skill
I have found that just loctite is the way to go you just have to be patient and let it dry but I definitely don't have any patience every day that passes is a day that I'm closer to death
IKR? I'm not going to be the guy who gets fired for talking about his new lasernut around the water cooler, and the female boss overhears and I get to attend sexual harassment in the workplace seminars.
