Watching this video right now with my nine-year-old son and he has no clue I have his first Traxxas rustler in the Box behind the couch for when this is over!
traxxas rustler? for a 9yr old?! that seems a lil too much.....i know iam saying this late XD i started out with the HPI mini recon 1:18 scale as a 8yr old, and i didnt play with it too much either. if you are reading this, how is your son doing? :D
@@littleraptor9898 I'm starting off rn at the age of 12 with a real rc for the first time and I've destroyed all my old rc stuff and I'm starting off with a hsp backwash
Great video for beginners! However, for us experienced drivers, is it possible you could make a video showing us advanced techniques such as flips, jumps, controlling the car in the air (steering), etc?
Just introduced my 8 yr old son to hobby grade rc cars today, made him watch this before we took our traxxas rustlers over to the local school parking lot & thrashed them around! Keep up the good work on the videos!
thanks a lot for helping me! tomorrow is my birthday and im turning ten and i might get an rc car! So i decided even if i wont i might as well learn so i know how to use it when i get it. thanks again!
@@cyberduck7377 I just stumbled across this video so its a little late lol, but its a stampede 4x4. I've done a brushless conversion and still drive it all the time!
I am a begginer, so what to do to stop the car from higher speeds within a short distance. If I suddenly apply reverse throttle, will it cause the motor to damage (or) it is the right method. My car reaches 40km/h top.
I have been driving RC for 35 years and still learning to drive. They are pretty tricky to master and sometimes you just have tk gk back to tbe basics.
Ian Enciso on doing backflips with rc's something to look for is the kick of your rc when you go full throttle. If your rc does a weely it has enough kick to do a back flip. Ok if you're rc is high enough off the ground, go full throttle in mid-air, that will kick your rc into a backflip
Thank yo for this. As a complete beginner to RC scene I had an issue finding anything of value for someone like me. You, however, delivered on all fronts. Thank you! 😀
I needed this because I back-ordered the new Traxxas C8 Vette. I had a Tamiya Hornet as a kid but the remote I used way back when is called Stick Transmitter. I'm sure I'll be fine but just scared of wrecking a $400 car haha.
Thank you so much for the awesome vids. Just got into it with a Slash 4x4 brushless.... so much fun. You explain things clearly and are not condescending in any way!! Please make more videos! Peace and love from SoCal !!!!!
I am trying to get my dad into rc, this should help him. I have experience with rc, but I only have a rustler. Are there any bang for buck cars for begginners?
Amistry20 my first rc was a ecx torment I've owned many vehicles and my collection is huge. The torment is pretty quick really reliable I mean in my case extremely I own 3 ecx veichles all are amazing and they're easy to work on and parts are easy to find hope this helped
Actually you would get a better car if you just upgrade your rustler Because an ecx isnt much better than your rustler!! Like get a brushless motor and lipo batteries!!!
It's basically the same thing as you grade but only certain one have a pistol grip controller accept the thing where u can go full lock or a not full lock
Cool video, looking at some of your others. I bought the Rustler 4 X 4 VXL, it's a blast and wow it's fast. So one question I have, while driving around and slinging doughnuts, I noticed the body gets a lot of gravel in it. Got one against the driveshaft, scratched it up some. I got a good bit of money in my car, so I want to have fun with it, but not tear it up. Is there any type of cover to help prevent that, or anything to minimize this?
i just found a traxxas x01 for free, so need to research before using it! i know these go SUPER FAST! but even if it does get damaged, i wont mind. I spent $0 on it ;D
Should of watched these videos. would of saved me spending £20 on a new chassis for my Granite after wrapping it round a goalpost at my local park 😖. Sometimes speed isnt everything
my nitro losi 8ight is having trouble starting, the pull start is really easy to pull, and when you pull it it's not as loud as before, it just make a dull sound.
Hey Greg, Not sure that this is relevant to this particular video, but with my electric brushless SC Truck, i run a battery through it and then have to wait for motor to cool b4 running a second/third battery. How can I cool my motor fast? would it be a good idea to rest an ice pack on it or something like that perhaps? Thanks.
Hey Greg! I am a "graphic designer" and was wondering if you'd me interested in my attempting to make you a channel banner! I can show you my examples if you get in touch!
Both of my 7 year old twins have one. They are good trucks. Pretty tough, but like anything, if you abuse it, there is always the potential of something going wrong. Luckily there is great part support for Traxxas. The truck is quick with a NiMh pack and faster with a LiPo. Then you can upgrade to brushless down the road to go even faster if you desire.
Seems like you missed an important piece on information, how to properly break without damaging your transmission and the challenges between 2WD and 4WD.

It is something we have planned for the future. So much to do, so little time. LOL
RCDriver_Online i agree, look forward to seeing that video. 👍😁👍

I have been for 9 years and I’m 13 but I’m bored so i’m just watching this
For fun

This guy is a good teacher
I'm a beginner and all of these videos have helped, thanks!
First time using on of these powerful cars. Excellent teaching! I'm so subscribing to your channel!
Rc for life 👍👍👍
i hope you guys do one on how to control backflips... and multiple backflips i could use pointers.
We'll put it on our "to do" list!

What’s the proper way to brake on an rc?
Im proud to say i am officially the 2000th like, when i like the video it goes from 1.9k to 2k and im proud 😂
Great tutorial video. Looking it with my son.
excellent video. many, many thanks.
Let him reach 200 K for Christmas🎉
Could you make a video on how to drift?
Not me casually spending 2 hrs watching beginner videos because I’m getting back in the rc world
Awesome vid!! I got into rc years ago, I wish I had this kind of information at the time. I learned from going full throttle all the time :)
Thanks for watching CrashRC Bros !
This was really good. I hope you have more lessons like this. Tha ks for the help.
So when jumping at what point during the jump do you release the trigger?
Yes I tink
I am trying to get my dad into rc, this should help him. I have experience with rc, but I only have a rustler. Are there any bang for buck cars for begginners?

ID Say You Should Get An ECX AMP!!!!
ultra rc yea those or goo to I have an my versiom
thanks for you help, i live in australia, i dont know if i can get them at my lhs, ill try though
Actually you would get a better car if you just upgrade your rustler
Because an ecx isnt much better than your rustler!!
Like get a brushless motor and lipo batteries!!!

What is a good ramp height for a Traxxas Slash?
LOVE IT... Great vid for beginners

I kind of feel like he is giving a class to pre-schoolers ....
good vid keep up the good work as soos as my niece gets a little older i will be able to use this as a good lesson 1
Thanks for watching Ocular Cavity !
good job. though i had a hard time seeing the truck with you in the way haha. other than that good job.
I love rc
Thanks for watching Street _rc !
Fantastic tutorial video my freind 👍😁👍
i just found a traxxas x01 for free, so need to research before using it! i know these go SUPER FAST! but even if it does get damaged, i wont mind. I spent $0 on it ;D
Peter Griffin how was it? Did you get it completely free of charge? What was missing?
Can you make a video on how to make an rc dirt track with jumps. I have a Traxxas bigfoot. thanks.
That would take a lot of planning, but we'll keep it in mind.
Did you ever get around to making the jump tips video?
Love the video awesome RC cars
Thanks for watching Joseph Erickson !
Should of watched these videos. would of saved me spending £20 on a new chassis for my Granite after wrapping it round a goalpost at my local park 😖. Sometimes speed isnt everything

Thanks for watching Noeys fastrc !
Pull the trigger and steer right?
my nitro losi 8ight is having trouble starting, the pull start is really easy to pull, and when you pull it it's not as loud as before, it just make a dull sound.
Richard Xiong probably the piston sleeve has more wear than before. When it gets older it will be easier to pull
HALOman 4782 but it wont start
Richard Xiong hmm that's strange I'm not big into gas motors so look up a forum or something
Sounds like the pull start may need a new one-way bearing.
Why am I watching this because I have been doing this hobby for years?
#Rc gang where u at?

kymbo72 you probably shouldn't use a ice pack because it could damage or crack the metal. I use a integy motor fan on mine and great.
Just send it!
🔥🔥
i know he is doing this purely for the video, but they way he holds the controller is hurting my brain just watching it XD

I have a degree in Graphic Design. Just haven't gotten around to redesigning the banner. But thank you anyway!
Infromational video! But you were a bit in the way to see the RC car.
Hey
Kevin talbot: Just go flat out off a skateboard ramp
Welp mine really is like an on off switch
What car is he using?
It is a Traxxas Firestone Bigfoot.
Thanks!
One more question is it a good starter car I've never owned a traxxas but I've heard they are very reliable fast and strong

Why am i looking this if i drive rc for 6 years already?
Maybe ask yourself that question? Only person here that knows the answer is YOU! ;lol!
Thank you
