Arrma RC's

Guys keep an eye our for Vas's (@Aussie RC Playground ). Looks like it puts pay to some of those comments people have made about Arrma effectively paying for his support/endorsements....of course I've jumping to conclusions. No idea if this link below works or not and if you don't have Facebook, well your probably stuffed until you see the vid released on YouTube :)

 
It is just the tiniest of snippets. I think he scores what I think is then new 4s kraton Ok but mentions that there are some things that Korizon Hobby need to pull their socks up on a few elements.....it’s just a sneak preview.

I think both Vas and @RC DUDE81 broke their rear a-arms in the same location which was interesting
 
I couldn't care less if Vas is or isn't. I think he knows RC and I think Arrma is at the very least on the right path to improving the hobby. Especially to other brands that just seem to want to patent everything and then charge new prices for old technology...starts with "T" and ends with "ass". What got my attention with Arrma is they were aware of the aftermarket mods being done to their rigs and actually incorporated into their design. I like that!!!
 
Correct. Purpose of the heads up was that some ppl have suggested that Arrma basically buy his suppost. I disagree. He likes the brand absolutely, but calls it as he sees it, he also reviews other brands as well quite positively when deserved also
Agreed! He definitely ragged the Spektrum radio on the V4s hard enough...which is accurate.
 
If it wasn't for Vas, I would probably own 2 or 3 Tekno rigs & screw everything else. 4 years ago I was completely pissed at being burned by TraxxA$$, HPI & Ofna seemingly disappearing, Redcat being Redcat, & Losi selling out. I literally had 5 racing rigs (Tekno, Losi, & TA) & NO bashers. If it wasn't for his 1st Kraton review, I wouldn't be bashing. He held nothing back on that review & it still sold me. He hasn't changed at all since then.
 
Vas running videos and speed test got me hooked again on land vehicles, particularly arrmas. The running videos at the track are wonderful. He hits all the jumps and different elements of the track with all the cars the same way so you can see as well as hear what he has to say about each cars handling.

Other than his videos getting better in quality, I'd agree. He's definitely a basher and proponent of saying what does and doesn't work. I enjoy watching most of his test run videos, regardless of brand.

Vas is the main reason I got an Outcast instead of the Hobao Hyper SSTe.
 
I owe my stumbling across, and falling in love with Arrma rigs to Vas, Rich D. and Thomas P. for posting their videos and thoughts on YT, highlighting the capabilities of the brand.

This is why I always watch his reviews first. It’s the best RC channel out there in this respect. He’s thorough and his vids are high quality, consistent and now standardized to his own standard that works and I believe he is honest. He even apologises to the manfacturer before he criticizes something because he probably knows these guys on a somewhat “personal” level now, is appreciative of the relationship and doesn’t want to damage it but at the same time needs to give an honest review. I think he balances that very well.

I didn't find Duperbash until after I got my first Arrma, but had seen a lot of Thomas P's videos.

From the sounds of things he might not be able to run there anymore. He posted a photo a few months back on Facebook of his Kraton in front of a sign that said no radio controlled vehicles on it. Then he commented on one of his recent videos about it being harder and harder to get out there but that was a subject for another video.

I wonder what happened? He’s been going there for forever....

The place is trying to get sponsored by some bmx groups. TV might be involved as well. You know how that stuff goes. I still can't imagine his channel w/o it.

Ah ok. It kind of seemed like they were struggling financially too because they werent maintaining it too well there for a while so the sponsorship makes sense I guess. I can’t imagine his channel without that track either...no more Race Wars..

Yep, Like his illustrative and commentary aspects of each running vechicle. One of my top YouTubers.
 
I just wished I would watched some his videos earlier. It would have saved myself of ton of wreckage.
