I loved the way the Lasernut drove right off the bat. What struck me was how smooth and quiet it is. It has tons of control and drives like its on rails. I absolutely love mine.
I ordered one today. I have to get one of these! I think the reason your wheel keeps coming off is because the hex is spinning in the wheel. This in turn will spin the nut off. I'm going to glue the hex into the wheel. Hopefully that will prevent the problem.
Awesome review of the lasernut, thank you, convinced me to get one for missus. Would you believe, straight out the box, all wheels had loctite except the right rear and it was loose. Thanks again for your comprehensive reviews.
Wheel nut comes off because center lock wheels should have opposite thread on the right side as real race cars. And it happens to the rear tire because it is the one where most of the torque is applied as the center of gravity moves back when a vehicle accelerates. Usually not a problem on most RC cars, but 4s on brushless with tires this grippy is just a recipe for failure for wheel nuts. Another solution would be using multiple nuts like most road cars 4 or 5 nuts per wheel would work.
Needs 17mm hexes. Those wheels are also super shallow at the hexes. Everything should be 1/8 scale on it. It shouldn't have rtr tenacity crap on it. It's a $500 shelf queen or a 1200 money pit. Horizon dropped the ball. Really sad
@@jamieofalltrades536 Hows it coming along for you ? I have one which i bought used but ive actually been to scared to drive it after seeing so many issues pop up. Can u share the solution u came up with ? Thanks so much!!
Love that u4 rig. Losi did a great job on the look of the body. Have you done a review of the axial rr10 bomber? Love the new shop I can't wait to see more stuff done to it.👍
I have the original kit and RTR Bomber but have never driven them. Probably won’t review them since there is a newer version. I can’t wait to get more of the shop done. Running into the usual problem; time.
DB Pro is durable. Just drive it in the right conditions and what it was meant for. It’s NOT a basher. Size and scale is becoming a “BIG PROBLEM”. There are tracks that won’t allow a 1.10 Buggy that even looks remotely like a basher. This new LaserNut goes by 1.10 scale? I could tell my LHS track, that LOSI says it’s 1.10...BUT....they see it as 1.8 scale. The DB PRO fits just right as 1.10 until the rest of the world realizes that our more athletic RC cars for dirt off-road are becoming super popular. Dirt tracks will come back! WHY? Because it’s cheaper than carpet. Let the customer and his car get over the elements instead of track owners closing their venues because of operating costs.
Db pro is a tank , but i agree its not basher and bashing even granite is way more fun . That said db pro needs wants to jump and perform but its controlled well and stable. I finally get back into rc and no more dirt tracks all of newyork it sucks , ofcourse there is a carpet track , but really doesn't intrest me
35 years ago I had a Tamiya Hornet. Back then we ran 7.2 or 8.4 volt battery packs and those batteries maybe lasted 10-15 minutes. Are these new battery packs substantially better for run time?
Amazing truck for the price but the nut kinda kills it lol its like the kraton EXB rear diff but the losi just needs new nuts who are available everywhere
Depends how you run it. I go into the trails with it and can get an hour out of it going fast when I can. You can drain it in 15 to 20 minutes if you're on the throttle the whole pack. Careful doing that cause the motor will get pretty hot. I put on a cheap fan and that does the trick. Hope that helps!
I only drove a Bomber way back when it was first released. Unfortunately I don’t think I can give a fair comparison because of my limited use with the Bomber. Sorry.
Also, the name is hysterical! "Don't hit me with your lasernut!" "I hit her in the eye with my lasernut" "If it weren't for your father's lasernut, you might not be here right now!"
I got so tired of spinning rims that I started using a little bit of the tire glue on the threads and I haven't had any problems with wheel nuts coming off anymore on any of my RC cars. And to get the wheel nut off if it's glued on too much I just use a little Heat from a soldering gun and it comes right off. I will not run any of my RC cars anymore without it
I was thinking about possibly getting one of these but for $479 the wheel shouldn’t be falling off. Basically one of your hubs was ruined and you possibly may have an axel issues. Not to mention how poorly it was assembled - screws loose/pulled through the body and the wheel hexes not centered. I’ll pass on this one seems like a great concept but they rushed it. I greatly appreciate the honest review! Thanks.
@@scottbails6663 arrma has went down the toilet. I have the new big rock v3 and its junk. Wheel comes off and the motor locked up after a week of owning it. It's a shame.
@@DeadPixel1986 seriously? Damn.. I have 14 rc cars including an xmaxx 8s and the loctite is fine on mine .. but there is also the orange loctite which is supposed to be 3 times stronger than the blue loctite and doesn't require heating to release the thread when wanting to take out the screw..
I love my lasernut, i have a vitavon rear diff housing, aluminum steering rack and silicone ear plugs in the center and rear diff. Its not the best basher but it will take a beating. I like to drive mine like a U4 truck instead of sending it 20 feet in the air. You find your self working on it a lot less.
Very cool rig but the wheel nut thing is a problem. i have a baja rey that is always loosing a right rear wheel nut and it gets old fast. specially when it rounds out a wheel.
Do you always come at people with this level of honesty? I love it! People deserve the truth about products. You could have edited all that tire stuff out, but you kept it in there. RESPECT!!! You earned the Subscribe button from me. You and Aussie Playground are both straight shooters. I don’t care too much for the RC Couple though. They seem to have sold their souls for free product. So where’s your online store?
Paul Clancy thercsaylors I believe is who he means. Might be spelled sailors but without looking them up before posting this but kinda think it’s spelled the first way.
I like rc saylors , they always been fun to watch , good to get watch rc ppl grow with hobby whike giving a honest take of the products, plus who don't want wife into rc , i havrnt seen Abby, im guessing she too old to be in vidios now
I ordered mine about a week ago along with the spektrum charger and 2 4s smart batteries. I'm excited for this buggy. I have been waiting for you to do a review and I love your honesty and feedback. Thank you!!
My RC has same issue with losing the wheel nuts . I ended up using just a touch of blue lock tight nothing wrong with threads . Note it only started happening after up graded motor and ESC .
I know this vid is from a year ago but wanted to comment on the wheel continously falling off, the supplied cross wrench just isn't enough leverage to torque the wheels down without a cheater assist, I use the supplied Phillips screw driver in the cross wrench for extra leverage when tightening down my wheels and I never have any issues.
Really fun car to drive, would recommend doing the tekno shafts mod on the front especially, as i have broken about 5 only having it for a month or so. Installed the ten scte front and rear bumpers if you don't want to have the back tire on. Did notice at the track it seemed to nose dive a bit more once rear tire was removed. Also to anyone that's recently purchased one of these, calibrate your escput of the box. Seemed to be much more responsive, added power, and steering seemed to be stronger. Will hopefully get time to upload a video with the mods I've done sometime thing week. But great video! Really fun car to bash with
I just got the db pro almost decided to preorder the lasernut but went with the pro had to watch your db pro video and I pulled the trigger waiting for it to be delivered I think the durability of the lasernut hasn't been proven yet. Awkward moving power sounds problematic.
@@paulclancy2404 no I met him as a kid with my dad. He said he wished he had my dad's forearms though lol. Hope your right and it is tuff as "nails" the lasernut
It rips! The advantage of buggy is there is no panel the tires rubs on. RC cars should've threads for the wheel nuts following the forward direction of the wheels just like bicycle crankarm/pedal setups.
@@jackk8422 I normally don't add to comments made over 8 months ago, but no. I'm waiting to see if there will be a sale of some sort eventually. I don't want to pay full price and then see a big discount later. I'm not happy when that happens.
@@nobodynoone3428 As an early owner in the the run I would wait for V2. It is truly an amazing rig offroad like nothing else. It needs a rear diff upgrade like vitavon. Be prepared to buy axles or go with the vitavon axle package. $100. minimum upgrade, better value $320. Upgrade. Do that and it's rock solid I literally have 300 plus packs through mine since November.
Horror-izon/losi (LACK of) quality. Falling apart BY the 2nd pack! Typical. Love YOUR reviews, but do you get paid to say a vehicle is good, especially when it's constantly falling apart?
Hi. Really love the Losi Lasernut. Want to purchase one for my first RC. A little worried about the wheels falling off. Have you found a solution to the problem? Thank you!
My wheel fell off on my Arrma Granite just the other day lol What needs to be done prior to taking any rig out really, is removal of wheels and loctiting each one really good and waiting 24hrs for it to set and then you should be good to go for hours and hours! Hopefully my Granites wheels hold up now that I did this :)
Congratulations on your shop coming together, WOW what an amazing RIG, congratulations team Losi another winner,, this will look good next to my SBR and rock rey 🤩BB
I have already purchase mine but it wont ship until mid to end of October from Horizon Hobby.. great job and love the fact that you used actual sound for it and Im looking fwd to getting it and Im new to cars and trucks coming from rc planes!! great job and love it and you did a great job Im getting mine in the blue scheme!! you can BASH IT BROTHER IT SEEMS TO HOLD UP GREAT!! One thing I want to know how do you clean it when you take it out and it gets all dirty? tell me that? and thanks bud!!
Thanks! I just ordered one of these this morning and after seeing this video instantly went out and got the better nuts for the wheels! Nothing would have sucked more than taking a brand new car out and having the damn wheels fall off..
I love mine, just 2 7200 packs in at 4s. The 1st thing I did was replace the servo horn, it has the link at an odd angle..I don't know why they did that, I feel perpendicular is better, also, the link is now on the horn, a 1/16 out from previous, just a tiny bit more throw. At the same time, I put in an old Ace 1015 servo. Supposedly the spektrum servo is same torque, but the Ace seems stronger, and much, much faster..steers great now, even in super grippy high speed
Hello. Haves you tested the Chinese brother the ZD Racing DBX 10?? What du you think about the ZD?? I‘m new in RC‘s. Love your videos. Go on!! Hope you‘ll answer. Thanks from Germany 🇩🇪
How are you getting on with this car? I’m considering buying one, but seeing / reading lots of stuff about failing parts. Have you had a different experience, given the recommendation? E.G. drive shafts breaking too easily, differential problems and missing shims, bearings exploding, under powered servo, nylon lock nuts needed for the wheels - I guess the list kind of goes on. I’m still considering this car, but seems like I would need to strip it down and replace a bunch of parts before using it. I’d like to know what you think?
i got the blue version 40 mins in nothing crazy noob here lol servo goes out, so i took it out and shook it, it sounded like a jar of coins. go figure a few hrs later its working again i must of shook it back into working order. i did get another servo but i guess i need a digital remote to fully use the servo? i need that travel setting i believe, because the thing turns way better then stock to one direction but the other worse then before stock, hoddy shop guy tested servo said its fine and i need digital remote.
If you go with the Spektrum Smart batteries, you should go with the Spektrum charger too. No programming necessary unless you really want to change some of the parameters.
Thanks for the video!!! Do you have an update on the Lasernut? How is it doing and have you had the chance to drive it much? I ended up replacing the front and rear diffs with complete TEN SCTE 3.0 diffs and swapped out the center diff gears too. So far so good!
Such a nice RC! I also own the DB Pro and enjoy that, this is basically an XL chassis 4S powered 2.2 tire version of it! Sucks about the wheel nuts though. 7mm non nylock just doesn't cut it.
Very nice...I was thinking of getting the Tenacity DB Pro before but ended up getting the Axial Bomber 2.0 instead. Do you have an Axial Bomber 2.0 and video review of it?
Would not recommend running this bad boy through any grass or loose gravel driveways. Burned through a rear drive draft LOS232032 part #. Seems like this is a common issue as well due to the fact that there's almost no availability for that part right now. I was able to source a spare set from Tobbies Hobbies in Florida. Other than that, yo I love this thing more than my UDR!
Handling nicely, that place is rough,big rocks, sticks, uneven ground, thanks Mr. Driver. When Manufactures want real world feedback, whos the man?😏 thanks from Kent Wa. / Tacoma Wa. Later my brother.
I am a newbie, just got the lasernut. I love the look and details, charging up a battery as i speak, can't wait to get out there. cheers great information and footage.
Other channel did review as you do and there's always something that broke with Losi? It looks awesome, full detail U4 4s and everything but reliability is an issue. Its a toy! I want to upgrade it when I put money on it, not repairs everytime I go out!
Such awesome video of this really cool RC! There were many durability issue with this car shown on U-tube and needs constant upgrade and mod. Still hesitant on getting it, very tempting.
Got mine today. The right rear was the only one without loctite. I replaced all with nylon insert nuts. The metal nuts without loctite obviously doesn't stay on. Thank so much for the review!!!
I bought one from a guy at a hobby shop he was selling. I tested it an paid him while it was still like new. I bought this because it reminded me how a udr handles
Hi Greg new shop is looking good this Lazernut will be my 2nd Losi I have a baja rey which was a pain to work on until took all those screws off the body and made a rear hinge with magnets in the front, I'm very happy Losi stepped up with this rig great bash bro 😎👍
Great video as usual, sir! I purchased the DB Pro for my sons after watching your review of it (black/white fox body like yours) - but THAT thing looks incredible!
i appreciated the footage with your commentary over the top (rather than the music) so we really can hear and get a feel for what it's like to drive
Yes! I can’t stand the cheesy music in lot of rc reviews. Lol
I loved the way the Lasernut drove right off the bat. What struck me was how smooth and quiet it is. It has tons of control and drives like its on rails. I absolutely love mine.
Agreed! I’m going to put some good wheel nuts on, lots of locktite and keep ripping on this beast. It’s a blast!

It seems like Josh at Harley Design’s had the same problem with losing wheel nuts on his truck also.
Good to know. Didn’t get to watch his video yet.

I've owned a lot of losi stuff, and it's a good driving experience, but who likes breaking parts every 2 or 3 batteries
Hope the db pro is durable just got one
I know this is new so people haven't driven it a lot, but so far it sounds durable, some videos ive seen they drove it roughly and it was fine.

Depends how you run it. I go into the trails with it and can get an hour out of it going fast when I can. You can drain it in 15 to 20 minutes if you're on the throttle the whole pack. Careful doing that cause the motor will get pretty hot. I put on a cheap fan and that does the trick. Hope that helps!
Any thoughts on how the Axial Bomber compares? Won’t be as fast, but how do they compare in more technical terrain?
I only drove a Bomber way back when it was first released. Unfortunately I don’t think I can give a fair comparison because of my limited use with the Bomber. Sorry.

I'd recommend put a drop of blue lock tight on the wheel lock nut. I've been doing this for years and never had a wheel coming off.
Does this truck, buggy break down alot ? Seen bad transmitters , easily broken drive axial and wheels popping off
i got the blue version 40 mins in nothing crazy noob here lol servo goes out, so i took it out and shook it, it sounded like a jar of coins. go figure a few hrs later its working again i must of shook it back into working order. i did get another servo but i guess i need a digital remote to fully use the servo? i need that travel setting i believe, because the thing turns way better then stock to one direction but the other worse then before stock, hoddy shop guy tested servo said its fine and i need digital remote.
Greg , I have outcast 8s , if I buy s smart batteries, do I have program and use smart charger ?
If you go with the Spektrum Smart batteries, you should go with the Spektrum charger too. No programming necessary unless you really want to change some of the parameters.
@@rcdriver thanks 😊
Mine lasted 4 runs. Huge issues with the design of the Lasernut. I sent mine back.
Hi gregg hope we will see the traxxas hoss very soon on the chanel ... I'd realy love to have your thaughts on it !!!
Big thumbs up from Bradypat RC, cool as ever 👍
that looks so cool probably one of the coolest looking rc cars i have ever seen with all of the vents on it
Yup! They did a great job on the details!
It do look sick, and it same color as my 1/16 Traxxas E-Revo
12mm HEX's. Thumbs down. That too small for those wheels.
Cool video ! I do not understand why Losi did not include a motor fan or real leds ???
Great review! I really want one of these now. Congrats on the new space, looking forward to what you do with it.
so is the body shell Lexan or carbon fiber. Is the carbon faux
Yoo mine did 2 wtf...this sucks bran new rim n tire down the drian
Thanks for the video!!! Do you have an update on the Lasernut? How is it doing and have you had the chance to drive it much? I ended up replacing the front and rear diffs with complete TEN SCTE 3.0 diffs and swapped out the center diff gears too. So far so good!
Replace because they broke?
@@keldonator yes
Losi absolutely nailed it. Definitely my next RC. ☺
Such a nice RC! I also own the DB Pro and enjoy that, this is basically an XL chassis 4S powered 2.2 tire version of it! Sucks about the wheel nuts though. 7mm non nylock just doesn't cut it.
Can you crank the nut on? Will it keep coming off even if?? 😊
It needs locktite to help secure it. My model didn’t have it.
Very nice...I was thinking of getting the Tenacity DB Pro before but ended up getting the Axial Bomber 2.0 instead.
Do you have an Axial Bomber 2.0 and video review of it?
So cool, how does this slower speed "crawl" on rocks?
Like nice video amigo 😀👍
You need to invest in some loctite for those threads.
Did you add threadlocker on the wheel nuts? This is something i always do on any of my RCs.
Would not recommend running this bad boy through any grass or loose gravel driveways. Burned through a rear drive draft LOS232032 part #. Seems like this is a common issue as well due to the fact that there's almost no availability for that part right now. I was able to source a spare set from Tobbies Hobbies in Florida. Other than that, yo I love this thing more than my UDR!
Handling nicely, that place is rough,big rocks, sticks, uneven ground, thanks Mr. Driver. When Manufactures want real world feedback, whos the man?😏 thanks from Kent Wa. / Tacoma Wa. Later my brother.
Always amazing excellent reviews
Really like this truck can't go wrong with the price and upgraded parts just add powerful batteries with charger it's a win win situation 🙏🙏🙏🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲💪💪💪
I am a newbie, just got the lasernut. I love the look and details, charging up a battery as i speak, can't wait to get out there. cheers great information and footage.
Other channel did review as you do and there's always something that broke with Losi? It looks awesome, full detail U4 4s and everything but reliability is an issue. Its a toy! I want to upgrade it when I put money on it, not repairs everytime I go out!
you sound loosely like doug from @sxsblog
I was checking this rig out in my local hobby shop yesterday and today. I am thinking about getting one.
Such awesome video of this really cool RC! There were many durability issue with this car shown on U-tube and needs constant upgrade and mod. Still hesitant on getting it, very tempting.
You got more then one of these vehicles and your the proud owner of a pair of Lazer Nuts .🤔
What is better. Db pro or lasernut?
Got mine today. The right rear was the only one without loctite. I replaced all with nylon insert nuts. The metal nuts without loctite obviously doesn't stay on. Thank so much for the review!!!
Horizon makes fun stuff still have a ecx from 10 years ago still working great 👍🏻
What do you rec9mend for bashing and rough terrains, the lasernut from this video or the ARRMA Notorious stunt truck?
Love the videos. Very informative! What's your favorite basher Currently? Not the best, just the one you reach for the most.
What is the approximate weight of this vehicle? The Losi and Horizon specs just say it varies.
Lost wheel nuts are like stray golf balls. They are inevitable, but always a good feeling when you find one.
I bought one from a guy at a hobby shop he was selling. I tested it an paid him while it was still like new. I bought this because it reminded me how a udr handles
What if u put 6s battery in this?
Hi Greg new shop is looking good this Lazernut will be my 2nd Losi I have a baja rey which was a pain to work on until took all those screws off the body and made a rear hinge with magnets in the front, I'm very happy Losi stepped up with this rig great bash bro 😎👍
11:25 what is that song
can i make my losi db into 4s
The way he drives makes me mad
About to buy one, what was the fix for the wheels and would you still recommend this?
Great video as usual, sir! I purchased the DB Pro for my sons after watching your review of it (black/white fox body like yours) - but THAT thing looks incredible!
Losi did very very good this year..n yes can tell it was fun dust ball the whole video
