Thanks Sean, much appreciated. Driving this bike is just amazing and I think I need to do a comparison video next. The Promoto MX vs the SkyRC bike. 💪😎

Must be nice to have an RC bike that has a more durable rider, our SkyRC bikes would be just as great on 3s with a better rider. I remember yours lost it's head the first ride on 3s. @@AussieRCPlayground

That's awesome! 💪💪😎

Thank you so much, glad you enjoyed it. 😊

Thank you. 😎👍

Wow 2 legends in you and Vas calling this the rc of the year and I don't have it yet? I'm actually embarrassed!! I think im going to check my lhs today and see if they have one in and go treat myself!! Only reason I haven't gotten one is I was wondering if it might get a little boring/old after a few runs was my only fear

Thanks. Had a great time driving it and can't wait to get out there again with the upgrades. 😁

Haha, I'm sure some of those bits and pieces I sometimes find at Altona probably belong to you. 😁 Every now and then I find a body pin, or a shock cap, or a piece of Lexan. LoL. Hopefully one day I'll bump into you there. 😎

@@AussieRCPlayground hahaha yeah same here. I keep missing you there mate 👍🤣🤣

You're very kind, thank you Steve. 😎👍

Also run spectrum batteries

Thanks. 😎

Thank you! Cheers! 😎

Thank you. 🙂

I totally understand, but honestly, it's worth every dollar. And that's coming from someone that paid for his (mine wasn't free). If you're into bikes at all, this is a must-have. 😎

Australian money is bloody weird.!! The ProMoto costs between £580 & £630 here in the UK, which is A LOT of money.!! 3S BLX Arrmas are around £350. A TRX4 is £600 ish.. It seems that anything that comes from the US is more expensive than the other manufacturers... Especially Axial, Losi & Traxxas.!

There have been a couple of cars that have some very close to clearing the 3rd jump, but the most recent has been the TC Kagama. I'd have to go back and have a look at my other vids to confirm this, but I think the HPI Vorza S truggy came close, too. Even my Kraton 8S with the Leopard motor has cleared some distance there at well. But as far as cleared all 3 completely...? 🤔 I'm sure I've done it at some stage, but I'm probably forgetting which car did it. LoL. I've driven so many there, it's hard to keep track of them all.

Man, why did you ask that question... So, I went and checked it just now and yup, my front wheel is busted. It's still usable, but it has several broken spokes. I never noticed it until you mentioned it... 🤦‍♂️ The spokes are all plastic and they just collapsed with all the jumping. Rear wheels is good as new, but the front is all kinds of messed up. 😩

I don't know, I didn't really attempt a backflip, I think I would need to have taller gearing for more wheel speed. Maybe? 🤷‍♂️

It was a 5200mah and it was a "hand-me-down" pack I got off a colleague at work. No idea how old it is or how many cycles it has. Both cells are fine and it holds charge ok, but I doubt it hold 5200mah like it used to. The second pack I used in the video is a 5000mah Spektrum pack and it lasted way longer.

I agree that too much aluminium can be a bad thing with any RC, so no doubt this bike is no different. However, whenever someone drops the name "GPM" I immediately smirk... 😏 I've used GPM parts in one of my trucks before and very quickly became aware of how cheap and nasty those parts are. Now, to be fair, this was a few years ago and maybe they have improved their quality since, but it still doesn't stop me from thinking; "well, it's GPM, what do you expect?". 😏 But regardless of what I think of their products, at the end of the day, I'm a reviewer and content creator, so since I have those parts already, I'll install them and see what fails or what failures those parts cause. It will educate me, my audience and the manufacturer. 😉

I have from Bristol in uk worth every penny pal trust

I know there are more on the way, but they're out of stock because they're super popular.

Don't know what type or how old of a dirt bike you can buy for $800, but I'm sure it won't be in very good condition or reliable. There are other factors in owning a dirt bike that will eventually add up to way more than this Losi, such registration, service costs, maintenance and trailer hire or registration of said trailer (if you own it), but we won't mention those. 🤫 Yes, some RCs are expensive and this one retails for $950aud here, and if you search hard enough you can find a dirt bike or even a car for that sort of money. But in no way will it be "cheaper" than owning this bike or will you have as much fun with it (although, that's subjective). At the end of the day, if you're looking to justify why you shouldn't buy the Losi, then you will make whatever analogy you want to suit that narrative. 😏 I can easily flip your example to justify buying by saying "why spend thousands on a new dirt bike, riding gear, rego, trailer, etc., when I can just spend $800 and have a heap of fun with an RC bike?" 😁

@@AussieRCPlayground Way too much writing, sorry i didnt read it, im sure u have a great valid point, or two, lol, maybe 3 or 4...I obviously struck a chord, i wasn't making fun of your hobby, it looks like a lot of fun. I never said it looked stupid, or u are stupid for playing with toys, i never said any of that stuff, i was polite toward u and courteous. Simply said they were expensive. Later.

LoL. You didn't struck a cord at all. Take the time and have a read of what I said. It's all good and I appreciate the support. 😊👍
