EDIT: The transmission issues were caused by the factory using a cable tie to hold the antenna and servo wires together. This caused the low signal issue and will be checked and fixed on customers cars. So what do you do when you are given access to the Internation Drag Stip on Malta and you have a very fast RC car to test. Thats right! 2, 3 and 4s top speed testing with some frustrating results!!!

@beyondRC Год назад

Guessed this would happen. Range issues. Speed run cars require such a huge amount of distance/space to build up the speed that even though the included transmitter/receiver on this (rebranded dumbo RC which has excellent range) still struggles. Great runs has to be said mate! Speed Running is an incredibly difficult thing to get right but Rlaarlo have done a great job apart from some very minor things. Cheers

@JohnRobinsonRC Год назад

Morning mate. Hope you are keeping well? Yes the problem was a factory error. They bent over the antenna and strapped it to the servo and receiver wires which messed up the signal. So no problems at all now. Plus they are going to check all the customer cars before shipping. So that's great news. I was surprised that the dumborc hardware wasn't better. Think it showed on the video. But now it's a simple fix and not a lot of damage I am happy. Could have been a lot worse! Have an awesome weekend. Stay safe! 😊👌

Also ordered a body shell for speed runs keep the stock body nice .You should stand in the middle of the run .

@JohnRobinsonRC Год назад

Good morning. Problem was the antenna was bent and cable tied onto the servo wires. Simple mistake by the factory and a simple fix for the customer cars. The transmitter and RX are actually DumboRC as Rlaarlo went to them for their expertise. This is why I was disappointed in having the issue. But as its all sorted now, there should be no issues. :-) Nice idea getting your gyro in there though. :-) Good idea getting the extra shell as well. :-)

RLAARLO is developing an ESC that supports 6s. Regarding linear acceleration and track operation, RLAARLO is developing an intelligent driving assistance system that is expected to be launched before the end of April. Regarding the intelligent driving assistance system, the gyroscope is the simplest function, and RLAARLO has conducted intelligent assistance research and development on the controller, adjusting it intelligently according to the angle of the curve, so that novices can also achieve good results! Coming soon!

@rcfools Год назад

Seems to be a common theme that people are losing signal at a relatively short distance with the stock set-up. Also the ESC and receiver coming loose after a crash has occurred more than once. Still waiting on my RTR brushless metal chassis to be shipped. I think when it arrives, I will give it a good going over.

@JohnRobinsonRC Год назад

Hiya mate. My issue was a mistake from the factory. They bent the antenna and tied it together with the servo wires. So signal was low. They now know about it and are checking all customers cars. So you car should be sorted. And I don't mind the electronics coming loose. Means some of that energy is reduced and doesn't go through the electronics. Assuming they don't hit the same wall or curb. 😂👌 Congratulations on your brushless metal! You are going to love it! What colour did you buy?

@martinherbert1626 Год назад

Hi, signal loss - I saw another RU-vidr have problems with the ESC resetting when driving on a track, resulting in the car stalling. In this instance definitely not a range issue. Perhaps esc / motor getting a little too warm and causing a reset? You had the perfect speed environment and the crashed ended testing; for most ‘beautiful peeps’ losing signal at speed is likely to be much worst running on roads or car parks; lots more things to hit!

@JohnRobinsonRC Год назад

Yeah I think any car hitting anything sucks. I myself have very little money as I cannot work, so I understand the costs of this hobby and the hurt when something goes wrong. It seems like the factory on the RU-vidr version made a mistake in bending the antenna and it was tied to the servo wires. Customer copies will be fixed. So the RU-vidrs are doing the testing to ensure you "beautiful peeps" get a fully working, sorted car. I personally have has zero ESC issues. Cars runs fine except for the antenna issue.

@CPB24421 Год назад

Some interesting things from this vid for me. The CF version has the extra cooling fan. Coupled with the one on the ESC (which sits right next to the receiver), is there potential for radio interference at longer ranges. Could it also be BEC or brownout related.. might stick a glitch buster in mine and take things steady till I get a feel for any range/cutout issues. Lastly, Iim curious about the optional side fins with no wing between them. I'd be interested in hearing from someone who knows about aerodynamics what effect this has. Thanks for vid as always.

@JohnRobinsonRC Год назад

Hiya Jason. The issue has been sorted already. The factory had bent the antenna and strapped it to the servo and receiver wires which messed up the signal distance. I have seen rc cars with 4+ fans without issues. However anything electrical can cause interference as you know... Concerning the wings, I am like you. I would love go know the effects. I've followed f1 since 1994 and remembered that the centre body fin (along the engine cover) shark fin, was to stop air coming off either side of the car and mixing together before hitting the rear wing. These on this car keep the air on the small rear wings, stopping it pouring off the edge, and therefore giving more downforce. Unlike Rlaarlo, I mounted mine a little further back with this in mind. But it would be nice to hear from an expert. 😊👌

@VDVC-RC Год назад

Though day... Great video nonetheless! I put a small 3s lipo with a JST plug in the transmitter for extended range on that & other DumboRC style transmitters. Test range at lower speed please. Just measure the battery compartment dimensions... You could even take the regular battery tray out for a little more space. Or use some kind of extended JST-to-battery connector to run a larger 3s lipo outside of the transmitter. And most of the receivers can operate on 4.8-10v/DC

@JohnRobinsonRC Год назад

Hiya. Yes you are now the third person to mention that. I considered that most controllers are 6 volt. So wouldn't a 8.4 bolt damage it? Or would you say a high percentage could manage it? Certainly interesting prospect and thanks for sharing. This case however it was found to be the factory had made an error. Bent the antenna and strapped it to the servo and receiver wires which messed up the signal distance. 😊👌

@BigBallBearingturBo Год назад

I see this thing rub and have big FOMO. It's so great for the price! But as a new RC hobbyist, I don't think I'm ready to jump into the expensive, speed running, side of things.😅 Great looking car, great pice, but with it having the singular purpose, I don't think it's for me. The cool thing about the buggy chassis is that you can make it go fast, albeit not this fast, but still very fast; and even then you retain a lot of it's driveability and versatility. Definitely a killer buy for any speedrunners out there but I think their next release, the dessert buggy, will be the car that have to add to my collection.

@JohnRobinsonRC Год назад

Yes I have to agree that it's a one horse pony. Great specs and handling for the price. But not for bashing at all. As you said, a buggy can be anything you want it to be. I heard Rlaarlo's next car was supposed to be a 124018 version of their AM-X12. But that's not confirmed. Hopefully (and yes I am nagging them.) a 1/8th scale at some point. 😁 Wishing you a fantastic weekend! Stay safe. 😊👌👍🏼

@BigBallBearingturBo Год назад

@@JohnRobinsonRC I think they would do great to build a larger cars as well. They seem to have a pretty good chassis design team, and their electronics are definitely getting to the point where they could support more weight.

It's crazy that the radio's range, is a meager 150 meters according to the spec sheet. You don't sell such a radio, with a speed run car!

Dumbo says 500m singnal but it is very depend on environment and other interference. I used Dumbo RC in XO-1 and had signal lost 2per hour on small onroad track. Then i tested on Typhon 6S on dirt track and had 5-6 signal lost in one hour. Different Dumbo Transmitter or receiver not helped. I have two transmitters and 6 receivers. Cables were totally separated. Tried everything. I do not believe in this "RC cheap China" company. I have now, no singnal lost with DX5pro and various Spectrum receivers. Dumbo is good only for riding hobby model around the house. Sorry but it is not serious company for make radio. Rather choose cheap Futaba, F3Px. Or Sanwa or Spectrum. When driving in this speeds. It is not only reason i ordered only roller version :-)
