Absolutely love the direction losi took for this vehicle. This is not meant to be sent. I really want that scale realism for the looks and driving characteristics. Good job , Losi!
Any chance you'll do a comparison of the 2.0 and the udr ? It's been a long time since UDR release. Be interesting to see the similarities between the 2
Losi is really starting to hit it out of the park with their releases . Super Baja Rey then the LMT and mega trucks now the dirt bike rc and the new Rey 2.0. I mean love it. I'm sure I'm forgetting some but I love it so far. Prices are getting up there but it's what it is . Investments and scale models. PROBLEM IS THAT I WANT TO BUY EVERYTHING I WANT THEM ALL. SERIOUSLY I HAVE A RC ADDICTION
Just got the Isenhaurer one, the exploded view for parts is terrible. Didn’t even explain how to remove body to get to components. There are 22 small screws that have to be removed to take it all off. Haven’t even figured out how to take the cage off. There’s a trick to installing battery, have to compress rear end to allow battery to slide in and out. Can someone make a video on how to remove body and cage, please!?
I am starting to love the scale looking rc vehicles more and more in this kind of segment. This is my next rc purchase in the spring. These trucks look great on the shelf or in the garage, but they also drive great and look awesome doing so. That’s hard to beat! Great review. And I think I’ll go for the Raptor Method truck as much as I do love the F100.
Definitely on the right track, I've been waiting for a real 1/10 desert trophy truck since the first slash was released 20 years ago. V1 was not very scale but this one is spot on, just pre-ordered blue Method version. Also have Losi SCTE 4x4 race truck which is great, a Traxxas UDR that I love and a bunch of scale crawlers.
Looks amazing. Losi killing it recently. Anyways with a trophy truck this scale and spot on, I hope there'd be room for a sound system to be fit in there somewhere. It's really the only thing missing in a scale rig like this. There's the sense innovations ESS that's popular. The bigger V2 I have a hard time seeing where you could fit that. Maybe above the battery if it'll fit under drivers. 14:35 And anybody who wants big air I would recommend do not go with solid axle rigs like this is. They tend to donkey kick. Big air and or maybe racing is better with independent suspension RCs. This is for off-roading bumpy conditions type driving.
This is absolutely awesome! I'm sold on this truck! It's got that mix of speed and realistic looks and also within my price range with some savings and budgeting
Love the fact they added dampeners in the front and rear, I'd love to race it on a good scale track, I bet it soaks up bumps and lands very smooth! Awesome rig!!! 👍🏻
These are so sick. I actually hope they release just the shell body clear. I dont need any more trucks, but bodies yes! I want to do a rust and rumble on that classic ford!
Great vid thanks…I was wondering about the differences under the bodies but why did they call it the 2.0??? Isn’t that what the last one was called? I would have named it the 3.0 to keep confusion on the low lol. Dual shocks are sick!!! Like a mini UDR, it makes me wonder why traxxas never did a 1/10 version as the UDR is one of my fav rc’s I’ve ever driven. To answer your question I don’t really care about the looks as much as the price point…and ifs front/solid rear trucks have always been expensive. Would be nice to see a builders kit return for the Rey platform!!
Greg, what a machine. Love it to bits. I own an SBR 2.0 and I still want one of these new 1/10ths. That's how good they seem to be. But why I'm really posting s comment today is to tell you that I always come to your channel right away with every new release, because you're my number one reference for the technical overview of any new RC. Definitely the most comprehensive, concise and informative in-depth section of all the RC channels I watch. Every single time. And trust me, I watch over dozens of them... Thank you for making such a great contribution to the scene, and I hope this never changes.
Already ordered this when i got the text message from horizon hobby. Losi has been on their A-game lately. First the PromtoMX now this bad boy! So excited to get mine and take it to the track! It's going to be a weeiner! Thanks for always breaking them down for us so we know what to expect before we get our grubby hands on these machines! You always kill it! Greg! The best RC reviewer with tech tips hands down!
Wow that black one for a second- thought it was the pro line body you had on I think a slash a while ago. But to my surprise it's a somthing completely different. Totally dig it!!!
I’m glad you brought up the chatter. I just picked up my heatwave yesterday and I noticed the body chatter right away. I initially thought a tab broke off or something got knocked loose, but I couldn’t find anything. Also, I went a little too hard right off the bat and sent the truck a through some hard slams and tumbles. Body stayed in tack, but scuffed up pretty bad.
Wow, just incredible! This might be Losis most attractive and mechanically nicely improved car since years for me personally. I'm not able to afford it right now, but I'm going to save up to buy it as a Xmas gift for myself. Omg, I want this so badly!!!!😢
I definitely like the added body elements. Personally something scale mashed me more than twice as likely to buy it. Even if it's not my "preferred" brand, manufacturer, or model. So much better than a generic body or non-licensed/non-scaled versions. Even if there is a non-licensed version to keep costs down it's awesome to have a licensed version. Those look sick!
I have pretty much all these trucks now, from Losi and Traxxas, and I absolutely agree about the speed thing, my SBR 2.0 I often only have set to 50/75% of max power, same with my UDR, mostly drive that at 75% power, the speeds are totally out of scale otherwise and they just become silly IMO, if I want to go nuts fast I take out the 5ive 2.0 or my little Slash :D The trucks for me are more how they tackle the terrain and how they look while doing it, rather than the pure speed.
Just got mine yesterday and loving the way it drives. However, the brake/reverse are incredibly weak. Like theres barely any power in reverse. Anyone else had this problem?
@rcdriver will yours actually stop? My brake just slows the truck down very lightly. But yeah the reverse is also very weak, couldn't even get the truck out of some thick leaves which was surprising
I definitely love the more realistic scale, but it looks so good that they need to include a bashing body as well to use instead of destroying the other one,lol but thanks for your videos and the time and detailed information on the RC cars that you cover, I had purchased cars based on the information I obtained about the RC from your videos, and I was not planning on getting it until I saw your video, I know I am not the only one who appreciates you suppling us with information that we can't get just by looking at and reading the box.
Wow that is a great update. I really like my mint 400 BajaRey. Maybe it’s about time for an update. Awesome job Losi, awesome video. Thanks for all the work RC Driver 👍
I used to be a Traxxas fanboy when I got into rc but I’m starting to lean more towards losi even the Baja Rey 2.0 over the UDR. (Except for crawlers I love the Vanquish VS4-10 phoenix)
Thank you! Contrary to what some think, companies don’t pay me and I decline all products with paid video offers. I’ve only done two paid project videos and made it clearly known they were paid. I try to give huge amounts of details so viewers know what they’re getting into. That’s what’s most important. Thanks for watching!!
@@rcdriver Yeah I know you do, thank you. I hope your making money to continue is my point. I sub'd to your other channel. Soo much cool content, take care.
Yes, scale…..love both bashing and scale. Love what losi is/has been up too. I’m a sucker for scale over performance. I play with my stuff much less than I just enjoy the tiny rendition of its full scale counterparts. 3:1 ratio….3 scaler based releases to 1 full out performance release….keep it coming losi. Bout due for a big bad bashing machine! 1/5th maybe???
Lodi done a really good job on these, especially the f100 I’ll be getting one. I prefer a more scale body and realism over a blah body anyday of the week, especially with the price of some of the rc’s.
that rear axle bearing does not look like it going support 4s to well i would go through so many on the Tenacity TT pro until i finally got the alloy rear diff case
They recently did. A year ago the SRR was a version 1.0 with Dynamite electronics while the 2.0 is with a Spektrum system. I personally prefer the Dynamite system, but ive not yet used my 2.0 with the Spektrum. I have the same Spektrum system in an Arrma Outcast 8s and it is rather sluggish vs the 750 kv Dynamite.
These look awesome, thanks for a nice review. The suspension seems a little less soft than with the v1.0, or maybe that is just my impression. I would love to see these driven side-by-side with the previous generation.
Great looking trucks yep think ima go 2s I wanna go for a more realism feel and look. 3s seems more for like flat parking lot surface. I absolutely looooove the details I know they’ll get damage it’s my part of my favorite theme with these trucks.
The bottom loading has its faults too. Personally i think the rear loading is better. Ive got many of the Rey RCs so i can give my thoughts. The bottom loading door gets stuck any time you use it in dirt. I have 3 Super Rock Reys with bottom loading, 1 SBR 1.0 with rear loading, 1/10 Rock Rey with rear loading.

@@Rc-ho4sv comparing the UDR to the Super Baja Rey 2.0 would make much more sense. The Baja Rey is so much smaller than the UDR.

They keep stepping it up! Great stuff in these new releases.
Losi disappoints all the time. They haven’t made a good truck in years.
@@StevenDauber💯they look good but tend to not hold up as good as they look .

Love scale bodies !!!! Traxxas UDR is epic. I hope Losi and Traxxas keep on making them and never discontinue them.
I agree!
The F-100 is the winner for me. I'm glad manufactures are going more scale.
They nailed the suspension! Build off next? 😁
Great idea Chris!
Lol... Love this
That is a video series I would love to see!
Oh man they did! This could be the one for a Build-off… But I know you, and I think you’d school me in this category. 😄
Oh dude heavily built builds 🏆🏆

I'm going with the raptor also❤
I own the v1 and it's unstoppable with simple tuning and cheap hacks that can keep maintenance down.
Losi is going in the right direction and have had scale for sometime but just keep getting better.
Hate no option for sway bar!
Losi has been KILLING it with unique scale releases for few years now. love it.
They have to leave something out for the 3.0 version...
@@MagnifiedGiant The front sway bar from the older versions fit with very little modification...

Stuffing a sound system in there would be a cool option.
I love the book performance is definitely a plus but the looks are killer. Love the retro, remind me of my old pick up and my new one.
I love the direction Losi is going the scale realism plus peformence, perfect.
This is absolutely awesome! I'm sold on this truck! It's got that mix of speed and realistic looks and also within my price range with some savings and budgeting
First new RC I’ve bought in a while. Great video. Next time I’ll remember to buy through your links.
Great content!
Love the fact they added dampeners in the front and rear, I'd love to race it on a good scale track, I bet it soaks up bumps and lands very smooth! Awesome rig!!! 👍🏻
Same here, seeing more scale built tracks would be so cool for these types of trucks.
Love that Losi keeps pushing the scale details on these trucks, got me hooked on trophie trucks now 😂
its the most realistic in most ways
These are so sick. I actually hope they release just the shell body clear. I dont need any more trucks, but bodies yes! I want to do a rust and rumble on that classic ford!
I particularly love realistic rc trophy trucks.
I think these trucks look very cool. And yes, scale RC is always a good thing whether it be land, sea, or air.

Excellent Excellent review greg always very detailed I've switched over to losi as a secondary brand to race with in open classes this vehicle rocks
My new favorite truck! It’s a 1/10 version of the UDR! This is amazing!
Both are really good looking but I'm definitely going with the classic F-100 !!

Thanks! These took some extra work with all those body panel screws lol! Luckily there weren’t any leftovers when they went back together. 😆
Gotta love Losi. Great trucks. My favorite rc is still the xxx-sct. Simple and fun.
Their SC stuff was a blast. Still regret letting my SCB go. There was just something so fun about it.
Wow that black one for a second- thought it was the pro line body you had on I think a slash a while ago. But to my surprise it's a somthing completely different. Totally dig it!!!
The PL was was cool. But this one is crazy better. Dang, I should’ve done a side by side shot.

Looks awesome. Love the updates it’s the 1/10 udr we have been needing forever lol just losi so will be butter smooth. Check added to the list 😂😂😂
They are killing it with these!! I love these bodies!!!
Looks like a slice of sweetness if you ask me. Might have to look into bringing one home
Love the insane scale looks
What is faster these trucks or the new Traxxas Raptor you tested? Which do you like better?
These look fantastic. I love the race schemes. Keep it up Losi! Doing great!
of course this comes out as soon as i get a baja rey
Nice to see they finished the suspension on this version. I will be buying the F-100 for sure. I am going to go out and run my Rhino right now!!
Looks so so good. Losi is killing it and I’m so dam happy lol😂
This was a p3rfect opportunity for some slow motion bmx track shots
Unfortunately I am no longer allowed to use the BMX track. Other people abused the track.
@@rcdriver well that’s a total bumber. Just bouncing around a dirt road tho? Try harder
Wow, just incredible! This might be Losis most attractive and mechanically nicely improved car since years for me personally.
I'm not able to afford it right now, but I'm going to save up to buy it as a Xmas gift for myself.
Omg, I want this so badly!!!!😢
Nice, Hopefully they see your compliment!

Good looks and high performance
They both look great!!
Thats a nice UDR
These are amazing. A work of art
Scale+performance=❤
That Retro look is amazing looking 🔥
They look great! Can see the possibility of turning these into Ultra4 style trucks with the body panel system
Losi makes u4 style truck’s similar to this.
Would love to see a Rock Rey 2.0!
Always like the desert trucks. Thanks Greg.
Nice upgrades. Looks real good on that terrain.
Yeah, it was a fun spot and then called for slow-mo in the edit; it looked to good.
Cool body definitely makes it more fun
I agree!

I am a big fan of the retro! Awesome review like always man. Now they need to update the super baja rey 2.0.
Thanks so much!
I love the bodies on this truck, I really love the vintage Ford body and that's the one I'm going to get, the body is a big part of it for me.
Yeah, that body really stands out. Good choice!
The realism of the details is better
Those do look like fun.
I’m definitely getting that 68/69 f100
Just got mine yesterday and loving the way it drives. However, the brake/reverse are incredibly weak. Like theres barely any power in reverse. Anyone else had this problem?
Braking seems fine on mine, but I did notice reverse was rather slow this week when I took it back out for another bash session.
@rcdriver will yours actually stop? My brake just slows the truck down very lightly. But yeah the reverse is also very weak, couldn't even get the truck out of some thick leaves which was surprising
They are both awesome liveries and would be happy to copy them both onto a lexan bodyshell 👍👍
Great review! I have the Black Rino with upgrades and I wonder if I can install the front end parts of this 2.0 along with the locking rear diff?
Are the rear 2 wheels useable... ? Never was meantioned
Yes they are functioning. I guess I accidentally edited that part out.
They both look really good. Solid review as always.

Oh yeah.. gonna have to make some parts for this ASAP!

But would prefer if they came with headlights
And I just pulled the trigger on the V2 yesterday. And now I see this well, what else am I going to do but order this one as well and so I have.

Are the Method graphics on the side a decal?

Losi Super Rock Rey is still my favorite - just can't beat that massive size and 8s power. Losi would be wise to update that model.

I tried to arrange a buddy to help drive. But those plans were squashed last second.
Great looking trucks yep think ima go 2s I wanna go for a more realism feel and look. 3s seems more for like flat parking lot surface. I absolutely looooove the details I know they’ll get damage it’s my part of my favorite theme with these trucks.
I already have 1 show baja rey that I built and another 1 for bashing... guess I'm getting another baja rey!😂 -thanks for showing🤙
Sometimes you just gotta do it 😄
Love the old body ford
If the reliability out of the box is getting better i might get 1 . Otherwise looks good . Im sorta biased though. Love the UDR
I was wondering where do you run your Rc cars at?
Looking good!
Losi make a fast car like X0-1 or felony!!! Powerful chassis beautiful body fast motor!
Great Video. I had the 1st Baja Rey and hated the way the battery went in. I wish they would have used the Super Baja Rey battery set up on this.
The bottom loading has its faults too. Personally i think the rear loading is better. Ive got many of the Rey RCs so i can give my thoughts. The bottom loading door gets stuck any time you use it in dirt. I have 3 Super Rock Reys with bottom loading, 1 SBR 1.0 with rear loading, 1/10 Rock Rey with rear loading.
Im looking for an RC desert truck and this one seems really awesome! I will probably go for this one or the TRAXXAS UDR.
