I think your videos are great, and insanely helpful. You seem to be very knowledgeable and I appreciate you sharing. so that everyday joe racers,like myself, Can learn what makes these chassis work.
I think JQ just has a bee in his bonnet 'cause they sent him a cease and desist. Car's fast and really not that hard to drive. Pace/serviceability/price/parts support its the best C hub car overall, and so therefore, the best 8th scale race car overall. XO keep up the good work 😘😘
Have you ever tried a cheap hobao vehicle and do you think it could actually work on the track? Talking about the VS and SST. I own an sst and I modified it quite a bit. We race on a little private track in a field, nothing professional, but still motivating to make the car faster. I had real problems with on power turns. The car was just not willing to go around the corner. Finally i figured it was the CVD's, they would push the whole steering straight while under power. I made some custom universal joint Driveshafts and it changed the whole truggy big time. Im quite amazed how these little things make such a huge difference. Looking forward to buying a real race buggy! Keep up the good work, greetings from germany. Cheers!
They key word here is “buy” 👍 its awesome because thats how he is able to stay independent and give totally honest reviews and setup discussions using real examples of cars with positives and problem areas 👍
You narrowed down the front end generating a lot of traction/rotation as a result of it's large scrub radius. Can you explain why a large scrub radius generates more traction from the tire? Slip angles?
Just King Pin Inclination/Steering Axis Inclination my dude. I'm new here so idk if he covered this topic in detail yet, but judging from his jacking video, he is very good at explaining things. For the effect of this for this example, the front two wheels will easily get toe out on braking/deceleration, especially on the side that gets more grip due to its great (positive) scrub radius. The rear on the other hand has a negative scrub radius. This will cause toe out on acceleration, and a slight toe in on engine braking.
I run on a very very bumpy track with an X. I want the car to drive more like what Reno says he wants, would something to start tuning around be changing to 20* caster?
In other words, it looks like they designed a buggy for Dakotah to drive... That guy can drive ANYTHING, but I do remember a few years ago that even with his reaction time and driving talent, the car could get ahead of even him sometimes. That said, with the 2.0 now out, I don't know what they did exactly to address this issue, but Dakotah seems to be winning everything with the 8ight-X 2.0 (except World titles, unfortunately😟).
The car have one of the best front but the rear is like a snake/slippy. In dusty tracks is a pain to drive this car. This reason my choice is tekno! My experience in E ⚡ cars!
Oh man. I just got back into the rc scene and this is exactly what’s happening. I thought it was me. I don’t have problems with other cars but this tough to drive. If I didn’t have extra money to buy another Ebuggy what do u recommend to make sure it’s not so aggressive?
@@invisiblespeedrc Damn that's a pretty big dig on a guy who's design has won world championships. Coming from a guy that admitted that he didn't know what he was doing when you first designed your first car, that's crazy for you to say that. Insulting another designer, look in the mirror and think back to your first car, and the level of your knowledge back then. You come a long way, but I am surprised you would make a comment like that.
@@drewreyes851 lmao. considering you have no fucking clue why he came to the conclusion of their designer not know your comment was the biggest overreaction i have read on youtube in as long as i can remember. cry a river, build a bridge and get over it.
Hey you're a good dude bro I don't know if people tell you that but I think you're pretty good dude just from your videos but I didn't know if you do any speedruns or you just eraser?
They've changed these things : front carbon fiber arm inserts (the 8X used plastic ones) , front universals (the 8X had cva's) , aluminum front steering brace (the 8X had the plastic one), +1mm Hexes at the rear (the 8x were standard), carbon fiber center diff mount (the 8x had aluminum one), 3.5mm shock shafts (the 8X had 4mm ones), +10mm wing raiser , polycarbonate spoiler and that's it... I have to admit the car is extremely nervous and very hard to drive with 10k-7k-3k diff oils, 40wt-35wt shock oils . But I guess the car is not very tolerant to low quality tires (which were the ones I was using)...
@@degaboss I've switched to a 8X 2.0 last year and recently to a Mayako MX-8 . Sadly the X2.0 is actualy not thatmuch faster than a regular 8X but somehow even harder to tune.
First and foremost your the only! current knowledgeable cat on you tube going next level! on teaching video's, adam just covers basics! But you can intertwine! Both newbie and vet stuff! Second who gives a shit! Why they steer great! We want to know? why in the last few years no tlr driver has broken top 10 in world standings?🤔 riddle me that! Please! They have ben runing THE x for 2 years+ and still cant diel!🤔 how about the tlr 8x or elite, just don't have the dna to be top 10 or 5 or win majors? Thanks jq i knew you would understand! But first lets talk about the invisible power! Pretty please!😁 clutch science!📈🗜📇
If I am going to make a clutch video then I will do it right. That means I can only do it next summer when I get to drive again, I get all the clutches and I try them and make a proper video. In the meantime watch some "basic video" lol. And talking about other car brands is tricky but that seems to be what people want.
I run mugen, kyosho mp9tki4 specA, and teckno! Kyosho 9 is tough and steering is very nimble! teckno is a tank as far as durability, and mugen handles like the great one handled the Hockey puck in his prime with Edmonton! Lol!🏒 thought you would like that one!😂 mugen steering us very acurate! Just my opion!🤔 but you did a blog i think called the invisible power! And it was spot on! So somthing along the lines of that would be good! Remember nitro truggy is the true glory! But nitro buggy dose pay the bills! Just not mine talk soon jq! Now let me go bug Keenan! Anything you want me to tell him?😁 ps. I think the mp10 missed the mark! Thats why tebo and boots left?🤔

More caster, thin hex front, wide hex rear, inclination on front knuckles if they have them
Hello! Greting from France! Can you please do a video on a new 2.0 losi. Thanks!

Yes. This is the ”magic” of car design. Cars are not all the same, it’s interesting to learn to understand the different traits cars have.
The car have one of the best front but the rear is like a snake/slippy. In dusty tracks is a pain to drive this car. This reason my choice is tekno!

@@invisiblespeedrc will do, thanks JQ. Great stuff. Keep going!
You should make a video on HB cars and how and why they drive the way they do☺️

Really really interesting. Thanks for share this. What do you think about the HB 819? I mean, is it on the "same boat" with this TLR?
No its more like the Kyosho
But not exactly the same
Hey you're a good dude bro I don't know if people tell you that but I think you're pretty good dude just from your videos but I didn't know if you do any speedruns or you just eraser?
The loudest people say I am an asshole, mainly because unlike them, I am honest and not a complete selfish hypocrite.
It also doesn’t make sense why the new cars have the shorter chassis when it already has enough steering.
More rear traction. Same as shortening the wheelbase. You can dial steering out but hard to add rear traction.
How would I fix this problem without buying a new car?
Watch my videos about how to set up a c hub car (for front end) and pillow ball car (for rear end)
@@invisiblespeedrc thank you

@@jamarcus_OG have you found a better setup for the 8ight x? using exponentials, thicker diff fluids?? reducing steering travel?

was this fixed on the elite ?
No

Ar the pro level we see mugen and associated, JQ, kyosho, etc.
But at the club level the losi 8eight reigns as king.
You have an unusual club
This didn't age so well. Lapping the field at the Nats is kinda a thing.
Where is the Kyosho?
