Great work on fixing the issues you found. I had one when they first came out and made some decent mph runs i think 113 was the fastest. but probably wrecked more than I made good passes. I think more rear Downforce would help the car because the rear always got loose when making a correction. Best of luck on your journey..
Thank you and that is exactly why I think Traxxas released the updated version with the large wing. I was looking at that and thought that would create drag but more rear wheel traction. But we getting there.
Thanks for showing off these hacks i recently bought an old version XO-1 roller off eBay and now that the new car is out for pre order i'm now debating if i should sell mine and get the new one complete brand new or if i should keep mine. If i keep mine i will be putting a Hobbywing Max 6 with a Stock 1717 big block motor or Castle mmx 8s with current 1717 motor into it.
@@MatrixRC Yeah i was thinking it would make more sense to convert the one i have to the new one the upside is i can pick my own electronics, body and wheels\tires and i don't have to the unlock the stock esc to go fast. But the only downside is it will cost more upfront.
@@MatrixRC I wish Traxxas would sell the XO-1 as roller with a clear body and wheels and tires like they did with the Slash 4x4 Platinum but without the electronics. Arrma sells the Limitless as a roller and pretty popular and sells i personally wanted before i decided on an Infraction it's so hard to talk about the XO-1 nowadays without mentioning the Arrma 1\7 on roads.
I concur. Instead of a 799 price point with cheap parts. It's only natural to gravitate to the Limitless and HoBao VTE Rollers. You Dave money and get a premium car
Very nice video, good information from you. I bought an old versión x01, and my friend have 2 Zeee batteries 3S 5000mah 80 C and i wanna know if the 80 C is good for the x01 or i need to get with more C of discharge.? Please help me to decide. Thank you very much
@@MatrixRC I might have to get one. I'm not a speed run guy but I do like high-speed circuit racing wondering how it will do as I don't have a 1/7 scale only 1/8.
Honestly nothing against Traxxas but you would have a better experience with a Hobao VTE 1/7 extreme and put your own electronics inside. You would save money and have a stronger car.
@@MatrixRC I do like the hobao's as I have 3 already. What I like about the xo-1 & the arma's are the front splitter, side aero & rear diffuser. No one makes any for the hobao's unless you make them yourself.
Body wasn't the problem. The ballooning of the tires was. And there is nothing you can do about that. Replace stock tires for another set of stock tires and run it again. You have a few runs before they go.
You cut for the factory wheels. Tires balloon like crazy. This point was to get 100mph which is extremely rare by most XO-1 owners. And the Traxxas app is extremely off on the speed. It only calculates the rpms which you can blip the throttle to get 100mph. My app said I did 110mph but it was only 94mph. But the factory run series show every possible way to keep it factory as advertised to achieve 100mph which is extremely difficult. The final video of the series I share the solution to getting 100mph but unfortunately I do not consider it factory as advertised.
Part 5.

I'm little surprised to see this in your fleet. Looking forward to seeing what you do! 💪
That’s the granddaddy I have both and they did do a lot of upgrades but the front is still to light need more weight in the front

The re release revised version isn't much different. You're fine. Just purchase the rear wing and cut a vent hole in the body.

Which is a huge disappointment to many XO-1 owners.

I already answered this on the previous video you recently commented on.
Nice simple mods fam 💪🏾💯
The new redesign xo-1 is out.
Yeah I was notified. It's on pre-order now. What is your honest thoughts?

Nice
Thanks. I appreciate you coming through and checking out this series to achieve 100mph on stock with no added weight like most people do.
Would’ve been a lot less work to simply balance the tires so they didn’t shake and hit the body.
Body wasn't the problem. The ballooning of the tires was. And there is nothing you can do about that. Replace stock tires for another set of stock tires and run it again. You have a few runs before they go.
Ballenger wheels you won't have to cut that chassis

Lol. Something's wrong with your car, I've never seen anyone need to cut the chassis.
Quick tip____ Balance the wheels.
Thanks me later 🎉
No need.
