Love it! Going to pre-order today. Quick tip- same with Baja and Rock Rey, you can remove the entire cage and body with about 12 screws and it gives you way better access to the chassis. All the body panels can stay on.

Nice to see they’re giving the ESC a bit more headroom as far as amps go. 100amp isn’t great for 3s; 130 is much better

@smiley37greg 2 жыл бұрын
The 130 Amp esc works pretty good, It's a hobbywing ezrun WP-SC8 that's been rebranded for Horizon Hobby . I changed out the 6pole 2800kv motor for an 2650kv 4pole in my Rock Rey and the cogging reduced significantly. It'll even take a 4s lipo. The tough part is finding a 4s battery that will fit in the compartment.

Okay when I first saw the release, I wasn't that excited other than saying "the scale look so nice." At the time thinking it's just a 1/10 Baja Rey with a different body on top & tries. And while that's partly true, the size difference is pretty wild. Losi really did themselves a disservice calling this a 1/10 when it's basically the same size as a URD & Mojave. It looks nice and is roughly $100 less than a Mojave and $200 less than a URD? Yeah that's a good deal.

It looks pretty narrow next to the short corse and other Rc's. I watched another review that said the same thing about the traction roll. Wonder if putting wider tires 🛞 would help with that? Nothing worse then having to flip your RC back over every 2 minutes. 😂

why do people want wider all the time? well yes it does corner better, but if something is wider than it is long, it looks stupid. If you want fast, buy a fast, low truck. Try driving a 1:1 truck if you want to see how easy you can roll a 4x4. You wouldn't try a full lock turn at say 100mph with a real one, so why expect a model to? Great review btw 👍🍺🇬🇧 ps one thing - why spend $$$/£££ then try to smash it up with "sending it"? don't you enjoy your trucks in one piece?! 🤣. The manufacturers love the people who send.

It's very off-road focused so keep it on dirt where it can slide around. Pavement is high-traction, and will lead to lots of traction rolls. You could also retune the suspension for your terrain. You could try heavier shock fluid, lower ride height, different tires, etc. -Brett

There is a bit of cogging on the extreme low end to finesse through, but the Hammer Rey can go pretty slow, chugging along with minor inputs. The one downside to crawling are the diffs being open and slipping, but a little blip on the throttle will usually do the trick. -Brett

It's a nice truck, but if you have owned a baja rey you already know what a pain it is to get to the electronics. I owned both baja reys the super and the 10th. I would think that they would of designed it easier to get the body off. And the front of the trucks chassis is really thin I've broke the front of the 10th baja rey before. It's a nice looking truck they should of locked the diffs or gave the option to do so, I think that people are going to try to rock race it and with out the lockers it's not going to do well.

Bc people have no commonsense and will break it prematurely expecting it be warenteed. Technically the motors only 3s and if they used a lower kv motor it wouldn't be as fast with 2 and 3s while being heavier with 4s battery which is counterproductive. You escs will last longer not running at there capacity. I do run this combo on 4s in my dbpro but I really don't beat on that car and have fans .
