You handled getting kicked out of a public park better than most. Little understanding and respect shown from both sides. Great job Earl always teaching 👍🏻✌🏻

Looks like you were running in the right spot given the activity in the park. Confrontations like this are not often talked about on youtube rc channels but something I'm sure many of us have to deal with. Thanks for showing us example of the right way to do it 👍

Great video, I just bought a fireteam and found this channel (stoked!!). Bummer about getting kicked out of the park, I would have asked him to show me on his phone where it says no rc cars at central park. But you most likely handled it the right way, I hate authority. You ended the video less than a mile from my house, dam that red light! I just built a ramp with all this rain and was thinking of taking it over there...

I have the same problem I’ve police come without me even start running. I had some policemen who were cool and speed checked my R/C. But after Covid been hard to find run places.. I understand Earl. Thanks for sharing runs 👍🏻

Thankfully so far everyone's been really nice at my local park. Waiting on someone to complain though. Recently got a Typhon 6s which I've had a lot of fun with. I've read the local rules that my park. No mention of RCs. Hopefully no one kicks me out. Being a paraplegic really limits where I can physically go. As always thanks for the info and the content. Very helpful!

This makes me miss my dbxl’s I sold them off because they kept breaking so easily on me but they are so violent they move real good for their size with the right esc/motor combo

Dang that sux. Didn’t know that it’s also hard to find a proper bash spot without having problems with some authority there. It’s the same here, hard to find a place where you can your rc without getting problems. Anyway I’ve enjoyed this video as always. Thanks for sharing Earl

Sir were going have to ask you to leave. This is a public city park your not allowed to have fun here !

I hear your pain, Earl. I too have great difficulty finding a spot to run my RCs. Unfortunately for me, I live in NYC. And, the area I live in, has few parks. And those spots are constantly full of people. And, to make matters worse, the city had the bright idea of renovating the one spot I used to go to with my RCs. If you know how construction projects are in NYC, once they start, they never seem to finish. I also don't own a vehicle. So, my options for running my Rcs are few and far between. It really sucks!

Great video Earl I kind of figured the Castle system will be a lot faster it does push out a lot more amps💪👊

That's moving for a big rc like that! Ran nice and smooth! Glad those park employees were descent. Just a busy day for them.

✌🏻😎🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿I’m getting really sick of people getting kicked out of public places. It’s time we all done something about it. Dedicated places for a growing hobby & community. I think it’s time we took action.

That thing is such a beast. I’d love to have one but it’s just too much for me at my skill level. 10th and 8th scale for me right now. Great job man!

Those guys seem pretty chill about it just keeping the peace

Pretty nice rip 63mph. Got it running great 👍

Your video all way Leticia how to handle problem in the way they should we thank you and we understand that we are having our season places that we don't normally should put them in but now with your teaching now we understand how to deal with the situation to go online and see what the clothes said thank you Earl 😊🎓🙏👏💯

Thanks for explaining the gearing difference and with the bad batteries I can see why why speed difference between the two and it not being gearing.

So sad 😞 But it is what it is . My My , yeah dang it was busy there . We are surrounded by federal parks here in Globe Arizona. Great try , next time hopefully it will be better .

Great video Earl, That park ranger probably has or had a few RCs himself but just didn’t want to mention that part. He was cool about it👊👊💯💯

I've had to go to websites and look-up city and county codes/ordinances for their parks since as you say, signage doesn't cover everything. Where I grew up and where my parents live RC is prohibited in city and county parks, but the signs don't call it out. Fortunately where I live now there are no restrictions in the city codes/ordinances. However, I actually have seen some parks in the city where signs actually prohibit it, but that is more the exception. I suppose though if a city worker, maintenance person or someone who might work in a community center located at the park were to have issue with me running an RC, I'm sure they could come up with reasons and the police would back them.

Understand and agree with being respectful. I’d prefer the parks use the yield to others for shared use. Horses / bikes / runners / hikers / … It worked fairly well in previous locations I’ve lived. For many reasons during our last move we decided on 30 acres. About 8 are flat and 22 hilly forest with rocks. A little bit of bashing and speed area, some crawling area, and flying area. While not ideal - even have about 1/3 mile paved road along the field for on road runs.

Great speed run took ma a while to find a bash spot it’s a little ride to get too happy brapping ☠️🛠👊

Respect both ways! 😎💯💯💯

Welp I guess you are in Cali lol. Up here in Idaho I don’t think anyone cares about the grass cus it has to be mowed every week cus it grows so fast 😂

Tear up that grass Earl! You pay taxes in Santa Clarita 😂😂😂

It's a tough situation to side one way or the other. I think you handled it well.. At the same time tho, you also weren't hurting or bothering anyone & the "destruction" to the field is little or no more than when a large dog or bicycle would do. Rules prohibiting such activities IMO need to be well documented in written form which it clearly is not in most cases. The park is technically owned by the people, & you should have the right to access it within reason (which IMO you were well within). Being respectful & flexible is commendable but I can't blame those who stand their ground on such issues either.

Is this why some kids stay indoors n r usually on consoles because of these rules? Its the kids that r the key too life on earth. The knowledge they learn from anything rc related n having fun on playing fields like this. They could come up with new n better ideas.

awesome rc and great speed runs

My GSD is my constant companion, and he is not leash trained, he is 100% command trained, so I NEVER go to any public park or place where any people gather or play, to run my RCs. I have this dog to accompany me in the woods and while I'm out scouting and rock hounding and he is as friendly as you could ask any dog to be. But he is big and mostly black and looks intimidating, so... We are way too over regulated with silly laws and ordinances these days! By the looks of that entire field of very poorly maintained grass, I surely doubt that your RC car could leave any lasting damage. You weren't left with much choice but to be polite and cooperate with the foolish wishes of the park employees in that situation Earl. I think that you handled it the only way you could and did the right thing. I hope that you can eventually find a place where you can run without becoming a victim of overbearing and unneeded law and ordinance.

Good video

It was nice to see that the Park Guys were basically pretty cool about this giving you a quick rip before leaving …. I personally ….down here in SW Florida have many parks that seem to allow RCs because the only thing the local LE and Park rangers want to do is check out the particular RCs I’m running that day from 7th scale on up to my XMaxx…. I’m grateful for that for sure ….. It seems that you have this Beast dialed in pretty well Earl… thanks for sharing……. ☮️Out!!👍🏻👍🏻

I pretty much stopped running Nitro because literally nowhere to run in my area I pretty much won’t get stuff like this or even a XMax etc for the same reasons just nowhere to run. I only got a Limitless because one of my local tracks actually races them and I’ve got a local group that runs them in an open parking lot for now but I know eventually when all the construction is done we will probably be kicked out of that just enjoying it for testing for now

That thing is a beast🤘🏻

Those guys need to walk not ride a cart.

I get it, believe it or not I actually went to a town meeting to get the rules from the horses mouth, but they get mad when I run my little 10th scale's I use the proline 2.5 mx 32 badlands most people don't like them I have found and can get some good deals, I love them on grass, just don't power through corners you will end up on your lid, that's what they are made for off road traction, so pair those tire's up with a 50 + mile per hour motor and ESC and when grounds been wet for a minute and you can tell I was there, nothing permanent but they don't like seeing my tread marks, kicker is town says if you stay away from people and are safe there's no rules saying you can't be there but grounds keeper's have on the spot judgement so if they ask you to leave for the day Obviously they think there's a reason for it, even if it is just tread marks, come on a dry dead time and they'll want a turn on it lol 😅😆😅 crazy, but I give them respect as mostly they tip their hats and give me a thumbs up they trust me I respect them works out good, but sometimes I wonder if they are not just having a bad day and want to pass it on 😂😆😂

Shooting a gun in the park is different than an rc hahah

Thankfully the city I bash in doesn't complain. I am really careful about not leaving massive marks in the grass etc. Badlands on a typhon can be brutal on grass with hard take offs. I do get warnings by the police for racing it down the streets.

Thanks for another nice Vid Earl. Question? If you had to choose between the KRATON 8S or that LOSI DBXL-E 2.0 , which do you like best? I'm leaning towards the LOSI as my first 1/5th scale off road.

I would love to see the new MAX 4 sensored. Compared to the XLX2. I seen the New Hobbywing Max8 G3 6s sensored compared to original max 8 not sensored the boost or turbo timing increased the speed by 21 mph. It’s was on KZfaq? Just saying

Did this guy really say that you're not allowed to drive an RC car at the park oh my God this is ridiculous already

Your a cool dude 👍

That's more like it. My original guesses were 52 hw setup and 58 castle setup. So I was close on the hw combo but the castle was definitely faster than I thought. You should put the 17tpinion on 50t spur in the hw setup to show ppl that they are pretty much the same gear ratio.

Good ole California. I've been kicked out of where I've run simply because the nitro guys show up. Have a love hate relationship with nitros😅

That's the biggest problem for this hobby, I think.

Always learning something new, next time have a printout of the rules from the website and dispute it. Just kidding you get more bees with honey than vinegar 😋

I hate you had to leave but 63 is pretty good!

This is all bullshit, it’s soooo frustrating. They make a spot for everyone to do their thing, dog parks, rc fields, bike paths, BMX tracks, skate parks, pickle ball, tennis courts, basketball courts, etc, etc. They don’t give us a place to run, and then get mad when we show up somewhere. Sometime it’s just enough to make you want to get out of the hobby.

Did you switch out the 1100kv for the 800kv. Maybe I'm wrong but I thought when you did this swap you went with the 1100kv motor instead of the 800kv.

They was nice

Are you crazy? Obviously a park that bans drones and planes would be banned to ground vehicles. Except for it not being obvious in any way and all. I’m just glad they didn’t complain about grass being torn up, while 500-650lbs of dudes were riding in a 1200lb side by side. Frankly I’m surprised all city parks haven’t banned them. All it takes is one person running recklessly or having a glitch, someone gets hurt, and goodby park use for everyone. I luckily live in the boonies where no one cares what you do, and have enough property to run my cars unimpeded. Except for my wheelchair that is. I’m limited to running where my chair can go. If I flip one I have to be able to reach it, and my chair slips on carpet. Now if I can come up with some Badlands for my chair….

What servos are you running ?

Is this stock gearing?

Man it's hard to find a good bashing speed run spot

If people were jus like that it would be such a better place

you in Santa clarita?

Would have told them to kick rocks, they ain't police and have no authority over you brother. That park is your also

So many things to say about the "enforcers" ... man you ain't hurting nothing and they got nothing better to do. Get out of Californian

I'm sure some of your tax money goes to help maintain that park, but because more people like a dumb ass sport like soccer or football, you don't get to use the park to run your rc which is BS.
