Thanks for doing that adjustment on clutch. Your right nobody ever messed with adjusting. That's what I was hoping would happen. So we have a positive their. Now to see it in a race to see the limit you can go without losing ground or race because of it slipping. Good video

@2fmrc Жыл бұрын

Yeah I tightened it slightly after this and it has a pretty good sweet spot but it was on the concrete so it’ll be totally different on dirt. I wish I had a good track around!

@FarmerFpv Жыл бұрын

When you first got it you said you don't think it would be something you would play with much and I figured that would change cause it's the most fun I have had with an RC since the first XMAXX came out. It's insanely fun and your always learning something new with it. lol

@2fmrc Жыл бұрын

Yeah I kinda figured the new would wear off and it would sit but it runs much better In basically every terrain that I expected. I didn’t think it would be all that much fun around the house but it’s been a blast! I’m actually thinking about building a small track for it out back now 😆

@FarmerFpv 9 ай бұрын

@@2fmrc Sorry for the late reply. You should build a track! That would get so many views! I have been jumping mine onto my barn roof and back down to a landing ramp. You can buy mini BMX inflatable landing ramps for kids. It's perfect for landing the Promoto MX off of huge jumps. I paid 120 for my inflatable landing ramp at the BMX shop. It is worth every penny jumping off of the barn roof.

Awesome adjustment tutorial. I have a few RC bikes (Especially love my 1/4 scale dirt bike from Himoto) and absolutely love them. Can't wait for this to be released next month in Aus... Have one on preorder already. Think what Losi have done, especially with the gyro where it is, has helped the wacky handling that bikes with the rear wheel gyro have. I'll buy the supermoto wheels and tyres too. Cannot wait. These things are epic! Cheers for the vid!!

I was really thinking I would wait until the second batch came out before I pulled the trigger and bought one. After watching many reviews, I'm getting one Friday. These are just too cool of an RC not to have one. 900$ with tax in here in Canada. Extra batteries are 100$ I watched a review of a guy who printed a smaller sprocket for the rear wheel to increase top speed. Got it to 54 MPH, so extra 12 MPH. Really noticed it on the low end torque , though. He also found out that chain is actually a standard size. The one on the bike does not have a master link, BTW. I didn't know the slipper clutch was adjustable. I wouldn't want to go too loose, may burn it up, with no replacements available. One last note, if you don't call that jump you did full send, I don't know. You've already done some pretty hard stuff, and it's still holding up. It must be pretty good, and this is a product you recommend, so I'm going for it !!

@2fmrc Жыл бұрын

Yeah so far mine has held up really well! I ordered several different pinions to play with on mine because there’s no way a printed part would hold on mine. It would be broke in seconds 😆. I do think this runs the same slipper as their 22 buggy lineup so that may be the one part we CAN get lol. I didn’t see a master in the chain so figured it would have to be broke. Wonder if I still have my old chain breaker tool from the bmx days?!!! Hmmm I may have to look around lol. Appreciate the comment and hope you love it as much as I do if you go for it!

Just got my blue pro-mx. yeah the gyro is the most important and the clutch may take 1st place in the critical class On dirt 12:00 is about best on the gyro and I'm going to do clutch trim tomorrow. Maybe 1.5 out?.. we'll see.

Depends how much you loosen it really. If it’s too loose it won’t wheelie at all.

@wtfmimshag Жыл бұрын

So i wonder if putting a lower KV 2 in 1 motor (hobbywing do a 1400kv i think) would allow you to run 3S without overspeeding the flywheel

@FarmerFpv Жыл бұрын

You can run a voltage step down for the flywheel esc to run it on 2s and run the main motor on 3s. The problem is the Flywheel has a governor on the controller to keep a constant speed from the inertia put on it.

@wtfmimshag Жыл бұрын

@@FarmerFpv Yes i think all of the 2 in 1 motors (which are basically crawler motors) effectively have governors on them. Hobbywing and spektrum both call it FOC (where torque is adjusted to maintain a given speed regardless of the terrain). Depending on how much current the flywheel needs (maybe a bit at startup?) it might need to be quite a large regulator to step down 11v to 8v.

@madbadger85 Жыл бұрын

i had a rc dirt bike years ago, it was uncontrollable as it didn't have a linear throttle response you touched the throttle and it just flipped over backwards. I discovered you could adjust the clutch, same thing as this clutch, loosened it off and it was more drivable but the clutch slipped so much it melted the clutch plate onto the gear drive, was a waste of time and money. It looks like this model will fail the same way, your clutch adjustment has put me off buying one......im sure the clutch will fry itself

@2fmrc Жыл бұрын

Well I mean the clutch adjustment really isn’t needed on this one because the thing almost drives itself if you have any idea how to control the throttle. I just wanted to see how it affected the bike mostly. I run mine tight most of the time so it will wheelie easier since in wheelie mode it holds itself anyway lol
