I follow your Quartering channel. Did not now you were into RC cars. I love this! I have a few old school Losi's, Tamiya, Kyosho and Associated in my collection, from my childhood. Do not actively ride anymore though, as I took interest in classic cars in my 20's and have stuck to that aver since.
I know you said the setup wasn't completely done and you mentioned the sound but I didn't really care for the little reverb BUT the lightning setup really needs some love. Thank you, great content.
This chanell is back! Yes. One of my TH-cam sources for rc content, way back in the earlier brushless days! Thanks for coming back with more rc content 👍
I used to be big into R/C cars, though I gravitated towards the nitro end of things. I did have a couple of electric cars as well, but that was back when NiMH based cells were the undisputed king of the hill and Lithium based cells were just starting to dangle their toes in the water. I friggin loved sitting down in the evening, tweaking motors and farting around with suspension. There was an R/C store fairly close to me at the time that was dedicated almost entirely to the car and truck end of things. It was basically a given that he would have an OEM replacement for any part you might break, as well as metric butt-ton of aftermarket and performance bits. On the rare occasions he didn't have what you needed on hand, he would get it into your hands in a day or two. He also had a huge indoor road and dirt track setup that absorbed a good 1/2 to 2/3 of the of the square footage of the warehouse the store was based in. Had many a 20 spot race there over the years. Sometimes I'd go home with my wallet a little heavier, other times not so much. Lol... Fortunately, he and his store are still alive and kicking. Only now he's in a new and considerably larger building just a couple of miles up the road from me. I should stop by there sometime soon and see how this new place is. I have half a mind to go dig out my old Nitro MT and get her up and running again after watching this video, lol...
Wow I wish I had a store and track like that growing up. I remember seeing a nitro in a box in a hobby model store that was easily 10-20x more than I had to spend but darn I would have loved to have gotten more into it, battery or nitro would have been fine for me haha. Had more than enough time to sit and tinker just not the funds at the time. I should probably look back into it.
@@cjones7424 we had at sick track at the RC shop I worked at. Now we have another one in our area too. It’s badass. If you have the disposable income it’s definitely a super fun hobby. Just don’t get into racing! Unless you wanna buy 10 kits and spend 1000’s lol.
@@BrandonGavin_EDC I had to settle for a Tamiya at the time in the end, not remote control at all. Raced that in storm drains and gutters as a race track, upgraded the electric motor, gears and tyres slowly with a few bucks here and there. Never to late to start for sure. I'd like a kit I could build, that would be enjoyable. I moved from that into electronics and then cars. But I'm not gonna fling my car around a corner probably going way too fast haha. RC would be fun to look into
Very good review and the car you have there is a real solid robust piece of kit . Mate I'm sharing this to someone I know who has had 2 very similar cars.
That thing is a beast! Knowing that Horizon owns them now and that the truck you just reviewed was so good, it’s gonna be worth it. 1/5th scale for $1000 isn’t that bad. I can tell already just with the body off it’s worth the money.
Thank you for being one of the first reviewers on here willing to point that out! A vehicle that doesn’t include some type of battery for the car or radio technically is not RTR. Paying $1000 for a car, then having to spend another $400-$500 on batteries and a charger is not RTR.
Hi "Coffee Boy" 😃. I followed the link from The Quartering. I also like r/c models. My first was the Tamiya Hot Shot back in 1985, the first year they were produced. I was 14 & it took me 5 days to put it together, then 2 more days to get it to work. I played with it until I could no longer get parts for it. At age 41, I built the re-release Hot Shot kit. I opened that kit after breakfast & had it fully assembled & running before dinner. I still have them both.
I had no idea you did RC as well. Damn glad to see it. Been bashing the heck outta mine for the past couple weeks. 14 packs through it. 10000 mAh 120c Zeee. Great run times. Still on stock gearing.. I can not deny I do love my Arrma. Honestly, I love the EXB RTR version. I'm already saving my pennies for the Outcast.
Dude iv been watching you’re other Channel for years and had no Idea you were an RC guy. My Brother is going to love this channel he has an RC rental and sales Shop that he just started.
Get ready to replace the motor and ESC. Arma/Spectrum ESC's are honestly terrible unfortunately. Both my Limitless and my Mojave were a major let down. Id also more compare the Kraton to the XRT now that those are out
I do find it kinda funny that jeremy puts his hobby on youtube. He just cant enjoy it unless its on video. More power to you bro. Glad to see ya back on the ol’ rc horse
I see you have the same problem as me It doesn't matter how much you fill a room with stuff and things there's always an echo. This is awesome by the way keep it up.
I was out of the hobby for a few years but got back into it. I had a lot of catching up to do! ARRMA is the big Traxxas competitor now and has an excellent lineup of RCs; guess you got a taste of their good stuff several years ago with the Senton 6S. This new Kraton 8S is a great model to get restarted on your channel since it is nicely upgraded compared to the prior RTR. Anyway, welcome back to RC.
I wish this did come in a kit. It would be cheaper and I would be way more likely to get one. I have one come without electronics (for those who already have spare parts), with electronics, and RTR. I already have tools and knowledge to built it, but not $1k to just buy one.
I’d say get them a Traxxas Stampede or something. Maybe a slash if they like that style better. Stick with brushed/Ni-Mi batteries until they get older. Then you can throw in the Brushless combo motor/ESC and Lipo batteries. You can upgrade the car over the years with better parts. It’s a blast. Even with brushed motors they still go around 25-30 MPH.
Traxxas has heard for years and years how bad that 2075 is and they have never done anything about it. Mine went on my Xmaxx after 6 runs between a turf soccer field and a grass football field. Never jumped it once. Arrma at least listens to their Customers and does stuff about the things that aren’t working.
Shit for good batteries and a good charger for that beast you would be at $350-$400 easy. 2 4S batteries with a decent discharge rate will be $150 a piece for a good quality Venom one.
I thought an antique toy like that is worth more money if you don't take it out of the box. I mean, you really aren't going out to actually play with it in public, right?
$100 for the Spektrum smart batteries (needed for telemetry) and a Spektrum charger? Too funny. A 200 watt dual charger is $240-ish. The 5000 4S smarts are $110-ish each, and you need two. I use two Spektrum 5000 4S smart batts in my Traxxas XRT since I had them already for my 4S powered Jetstream boat. The boat was my first surface RC model since the 80's. The Kraton 8S or a Traxxas XRT both seem nice trucks. With mild jumping, and a lot of sliding, the XRT has broke nothing in 5 months of use. The big models are easier to see with my aged eyes.
I disagree the slogan it's dope,Don't just bash just blast ,,, means full trigger send it with style,aka mix it up, and Traxxas never sold battery and charger in the package,they all sell separately , and quote you said a lot of metal, you mean aluminium, definitely to much nit picking, honestly why did u buy it,the truck is gem.
That's a killer kit. Looks like a monster. Thanks for coming back Jeremy
Wholesome. Love to see you do something you actually enjoy.
An RC Nightmare video!? Is it 2015!?
He's coming back to it.

Electric is king now. Batteries and motors are too good now. Way less stress running them too.

@@cjones7424 plenty of awesome kits out there. Losi, Team associated, you can even build rock crawlers now that are really cool.
Nice. Looking forward to seeing more.
Though, you definitely want to put more lights into this space.
As a huge fan of the quartering im pleasantly surprised to come across this!!! Jeremy is an OG youtuber 😂
Pretty sure this channel existed before the quartering.
Yeah I think before the quartering from my memory probably run at the same time as unsleeved media.
@fondfarewell2 why I said OG youtuber... this channel is clearly older
This is sweet.
I don't see how he can say he doesn't consider it 5th scale, but more like 6th or 7th. That thing is huge.
Dude seems like a moron, there is NO way this is NOT a 5th scale...I changed videos halfway through the video...he dumb
Very good review and the car you have there is a real solid robust piece of kit . Mate I'm sharing this to someone I know who has had 2 very similar cars.
I saw the thumbnail and said hey I think I know that guy from somewhere else 😄
Looks awesome!!
Yes!!!!!
This makes me want to get back into rcs.
Glad you’re doing these again! 🎉
You know you are going to have to build a giant RC track in your back yard now! lol 😂
Dude this is amazing
Nice mancave / arcade Jeremy big ups
Rcnightmare!top upload~ I'll be back,💫

🤯that thing is HUGE!!!!!! 8s 1/5 scale that can do 50+ is nuts!
How am I just learning Jeremy has an RC channel holy cow! Talk about a shock lol
This is cool to watch.
Awesome dude
Get a clear body and paint it yourself. Put a chassis plate over the bottom. I love arrma easy to work on parts are readily available
Get ready to replace the motor and ESC. Arma/Spectrum ESC's are honestly terrible unfortunately. Both my Limitless and my Mojave were a major let down. Id also more compare the Kraton to the XRT now that those are out
Wow, when you said RC car, this is NOT what I pictured. I had no idea they made anything like this.
I have the original exb roller and I built it up. I think I am gonna buy this cause I like all the newer upgrades.
I asked for it, you got it! Thank you! Thing is awesome and pricey...I wanna see you hop on! Lol😂
This blows the xmaxx outta the water..
Nice to see coffee sales are good.
I do find it kinda funny that jeremy puts his hobby on youtube. He just cant enjoy it unless its on video.
More power to you bro. Glad to see ya back on the ol’ rc horse
I couldn't afford it if I didn't do videos about it too. Well not at this level anyway.

Interact with the folks now that you're back
It would be really cool if you 3d printed bodies and parts you would like to see on your dream rc
How are you going to know if you send it to big like the Xmaxx when it sheds it’s body
Aww man you are waking up the kid in me, and I'm not broke anymore ! Yippee !
Thinking about getting my 2 kids there first car soon what should I get them one is 6 the other is 8

You look like the guy from the quartering?
Awesome!!
He is back!
I love my Typhon 6S! I hope you also discuss Kyosho Mini-Zs on this channel.
Iv been a sub for 11 years since you reviewed the losi mini 8ight
One suggestion. How about some sub $500 cars? You need to work on lighting too
Some black ops shit, nice
Just a silent brag in my awesome home arcade… haha I was hoping to hear “Hi, I’m Jeremy from the Quartering.”
That things a beast!!
That box is enormous 😄 was thinking all video if its that big or if you are just tiny 😂 actually first time I see one of your videos.
Hilarious you also love RC. Wish I would have known this long ago.
I just purchased this Kraton 8S too! Batteries and charger set me back another $500!! (you mention $100) haha
So cool, nice to see a new blast from the past. Maybe 300 for batteries haha
Cool af
We gonna run this, this weekend??
Have you seen that guy make an action trailer using rc cars?
Entry level 4x4 off road RC you’d recommend? I’d like to put a 4Runner shell on it.
Gorgon for durability. TRX4 sport for durability. SCX10.3 for scale.
@@buysncharge Thank you for the response, I did come across a SCX10.2 4runner build that looked awesome.
is this a newer version to the orange and green kraton 8s?
Did you ever play Re-Volt on the N64 or Dreamcast?
Anyone else hearing Re-Volt music watching this?
I alway blew up his channel to bring this back.. idk if it was me but I hope it helped him come back
Now do an mtg video lol
Traxxas has heard for years and years how bad that 2075 is and they have never done anything about it. Mine went on my Xmaxx after 6 runs between a turf soccer field and a grass football field. Never jumped it once.
Arrma at least listens to their Customers and does stuff about the things that aren’t working.
How is 1100 rpm per volt some giant monster engine? And that looks 8th scale to me. I have a Redcat Rampage 5th scale and it's HUGE compared to that.
This thing is longer and wider than your rampage. Faster and more durable too. Makes your rampage look like a kids toy. Do some research lol
Yeah, sure it is pal. The fact that you could even pick it up proves you wrong. @@smoothwookienookie5912
Damn, this this is YUGE
Shit for good batteries and a good charger for that beast you would be at $350-$400 easy. 2 4S batteries with a decent discharge rate will be $150 a piece for a good quality Venom one.
I thought an antique toy like that is worth more money if you don't take it out of the box. I mean, you really aren't going out to actually play with it in public, right?
Why buy an rc car if you ain’t driving it
I don't think you are going to be able to drive that under the neighbors car.
At what point does an R.C. car become just…
A car?
When it can carry a full grown person and actually take you somewhere? Idk lol
$100 for the Spektrum smart batteries (needed for telemetry) and a Spektrum charger? Too funny. A 200 watt dual charger is $240-ish. The 5000 4S smarts are $110-ish each, and you need two.

This isn't the quartering, wth. 😂
I'm still gonna watch though even though I have zero interest in RC cars.
OH a MAN CADE ! Yeah Jeremy, NONE of us like to see the bottom of the truck, It means you gotta get up from your chair.
2 spektrum batteries and a charger is over $300
Jeremy?!
Is the quartering guy
This was Jeremy's first(ish) channel even before his mtghq channel. He also did an IT channel.
@@DesolatorMagiche needs to go back to MTG, lots of cringe to cover.
I wonder what Brandon is doing now?
He was running the camera.
@@rcnightmare glad to hear it. The team back together.
I got no alerts for your new videos WTAF 😡🤬
$1k same thing as steam deck which I regret getting and trying to sell it.
100 bucks lol maybe one battery, more like 400 dollars for spektrum smart equipment
The motor is definitely not underpowered. This things hauls @ss.
You can’t make some people happy no matter what.

Almost big enough to ride in lol
Is a 1/6 scale. Not, 1/5 scale. A Raminator is a true 1/5 scale. Is just marketing from Arrma.
⭐️🌟⭐️🌟⭐️🌟⭐️
damn
Disposable income much, i can barley afftord a holiday lol
Just getting one of these for my 1st proper RC car 🚗 cant wait (birthday next week) my mum says i have to wait!! Grrrr so annoying woman
Very much a 1/5 scale. Basic transmitter? You don’t know much abt Arrma!! SMDH Petty Eddie
Electric is so boring… nitro or bust!
Dude I didn’t know you were into RC’s I’ve been watching the quartering for awhile
