It's always an exciting day when we have A new Arma release and this is the new Arma Fury one10 scale short course truck With a 550 brushed motor it's completely Ready to run and I think one of my Favorite features is there oh I like I Kind of like the little isn't that the Spectrum L right there oh it is yeah Yeah it is that's cool second guessing Myself there you go so I was I I thought This body pin would pull all the way out But it doesn't it just pops over like That hold on let me see that this is the First for us right okay it's like Arma Is recreating with every single vehicle A new way to take off the body and I Know that probably seems really silly to Some people but I mean that's Innovation And unfortun big deal it is a big deal You know when Arma is innovating Generally that means traxxis is getting Their lawyers ready to try to sue them For doing good things to the Hobby Tractus is like we own body Clips yeah We we invented body Clips we're gonna Sue you into the dirt so that's what Traxxas does but in today's video we're Excited to run this we're just going to Take it on a nice smooth asphalt and see What kind of speeds we can get also know That you can easily upgrade this to a Brushless setup if you want to upgrade Down the road it's very easy to do and If you're wondering why we're not at our
One mile long speed test space they are Gearing up for a show up there and it Was crowded with tons of people so uh we Just didn't want to bug anybody that's Why we're here at this parking lot and That's okay we're going to have a great Time so let's power this on and see how Fast it Goes it's interesting that that comes Off and doesn't just um hinge open yeah I like it the hinge it when you're um it Gets in the way your your hands and Stuff just so is that the battery it Comes with comes with a 3,300 8.4 cell Nickel metal hydride has the little USB Charger I see in the Box Right comes With that yes but that is a smart Charger and Then there we go nice fit good good What's going on with the transmitter Over here let's see we have a spectrum Slt2 this this is what I like ARMA is in Oops this is what I like to see with a Company now a good company thinks about The user experience and I love the fact They could put this on their website and Say we're selling this for 10 extra Bucks for these two screwdrivers I get Guarantee because of the long shaft and Big handle I will probably make these my Daily daily screwdrivers because a lot Of times building airplanes I require Something like this and I don't have Anything with that kind of reach and it
Even spins on the top too so I really I Like that good on Arma for doing that we Also get the very cool shaped tool that Unfortunately YouTube won't let me say What it looks like but I absolutely love That I think that's really cool and this Is a this is a budget entry level 10th Scale RC in the the fact that they're Including all of these extras is very Very very good on Arma I love this it's Starting to feel a little bit like Axial Arma batteries are superior Batteries oh I love Arma batteries I Wish I could put Arma batteries in my TV Controls and everything I can't buy Arma Batteries well my TV controller would Have better range work Faster now we're going to do two things We're going to do a speed test with the Included nickel metal hydride and then We're going to do a speed test with a Lipo battery so if you want your first Cheap Upgrade you can do that and I will show You how I love that that was fun yeah You want do that feel like I'm going to Play a video game now let's do that Again that just made me [Music] Happy see this I see wait no I didn't See I was looking at the logo people Want to see this this is I like how They're pointed it should help it line Up a little bit easier
Instead of body Clips we just do This look at that clip clip walked in Place love that love That all right let's do it I think they Did a really good job on the way this Thing looks bright red it looks awesome And red with black is always a good Color combo and I'm pretty sure they Have another color as well so be sure to Check that out so I'm going to drive This on 50% speed limit on the included M Hydrate battery should be pretty D on Slow And then I want to pass the controls to Abby to hit 75% and 100% here we Go now we want this to actually be a Little bit on the slower side because my Kids are going to drive this on a 50% Speed limit in fact they're really Getting into RC's and they do Drive RC's And I pretty much knock them down to 50% And even even their Friends where we at Abby oo that's not Too you are at 19 mil okay so before I Pass the controller to you we want to Bump up the speed limit to 75 and now it's your turn thank you all Right Abby is at the controls we're Going to see if we can get any faster on This thing just knowing that it is rear Wheeel drive when you punch that Throttle it likes to kick out some so You just got to kind of Ease Into The
Juice cuz it's Powerful and what is your gas Abby at Isn't that fun you hit the brakes it Slides on asho it's Fun you said it's rear wheel drive rear Wheel drive oh yeah wouldn't it be funny If they made a front-wheel drive RC I'd Like to see that oh oh I spped the can That's all right to pick that up uh my Guess 24 that's what I was going to say So I'll go with 25 just to just to have That edge and we got a lipo test too Right that's exactly right so we're Going to see put your guesses in the Comments how fast do you think a lipo is Going to go on this ah okay so that Speed bump only gave us 2 more miles an Hour so we're at 21 that's still okay 100 all right and then I would like to Drive it you know what I'll just wait Till I hit that lipo for that 100% I Think we're going to actually get a Little more speed when we put the Lipo In I'll tell you guys the benefits of Going from nickel metal hydride to Lipo now that feels pretty fast right That's a little bit faster I I can tell That I don't even know if I got Peak Speed honestly I feel like it was Speeding up as I I'm going to say 25 on This one which is pretty good Good nice nice Nice all right let's check it okay yeah I feel like that's definitely hit your
Peak Speed all right okay 23 mph that's Really not too bad on a tenth scale Ready to run especially at this price And if you guys are curious remember This is linked in the description box Below remember we're going to put a lipo In so we can see if we can get any more Speed out of this without making any Physic modifications just a battery Upgrade right out of the box okay we Pull this front tab easy access under This Short Course Truck I like that There's a lot of room for my hands and Everything so when we pull both of those That pops off nice and easy now what we Need to do is disconnect our battery I'm Going to teach you guys how to go from Nickel metal hydride to lipo uh really Lipos are pretty much better in just About every way I suppose they could be A little bit more dangerous but there we Turn that Off and there's this little thing here Called a jumper okay right now it's set On nickel metal Hydride we pull our little jumper out That little tiny thing so we just put The jumper over one little pin because That tells me lipo on this side nickel Metal hydrate on that side now we're Lipo ready we're going to get a alonger Run time cuz we're putting a 5,000 Milliamp battery in here but because we
Have that little extra bump on this Battery that bumped up our voltage so we Might actually see a slower performance Out of this Lio it's very possible I Mean that that would make sense because That is how voltage Works but it'll be interesting to see And it's cool that this is lipo ready Now the reason we have that jumper move Like that is only for the battery's Safety really because when this battery Gets down to about 20% juice or so That's kind of how that works um it will Cut off completely so we don't hurt the Battery and over discharge it I think I Find this easier to do upside down too Just so Know And push that in push that pin in and There we go we're ready to go all right Now it's my turn to rip on this thing I Don't know it might be pretty hard and Close oh that's just the funnest part is Just hitting the brakes and letting it Turn Around it runs really well I cannot wait To actually take this out bashing today We just wanted to see what throttle Limit is this 100% oh okay I just went Right into it one more pass and we'll See how fast it went with our LiPo Battery my guess is pretty much the same Because they have that nice high Performance nickel metal hydrate that's
Included another benefit to going lipo Over that nickel metal is you can charge It a lot Faster hey we got one more mph 24 now Can any of you guys explain how in the World please someone tell me because if Voltage is voltage is voltage is Voltage how can I have went faster on a Lower voltage battery than the higher Voltage nickel metal hydrate that Doesn't make any sense to me I was fully Expecting to see a slower performance Out of lower voltage on that battery and They're both fully charged fully topped Off good fresh healthy batteries so That's interesting it was only 1 mph but You would think this would have been Significantly slower maybe at least 3 or 4 mph slower anyway this is a very cool I would call it beginner friendly RC Vehicle if all you've ever had in your Life are like Walmart RC's or maybe you Picked up an Amazon RC and you're ready To get into hobby grade I promise you Arma is where it's at now 5 years ago Would people have said that there might Have been a bigger debate it would be Arma versus Traxxas and unfortunately There's still a few people out there That just own a lot of Traxxas vehicles And they kind of hold on to the idea That Traxxas is superior but Unfortunately over the last couple of Years especially if you're new into the
Hobby you need to understand one thing Traxxas is laer heavy Arma is innovation Heavy we love supporting Innovation and Progress in the Hobby and a lot of times You'll see um in the comments section People getting really defensive about Traxxas and I totally understand it you Know if you spend a lot of money on a Company it's hard to accept that they've Just gone so off the deep end in the Wrong direction that's why we love Arma And we support Arma because in our Opinions we love to see the progress in The Hobby and even if it's small things Like those body Clips it's a really cool Thing to see and so we applaud Arma for Releasing a new vehicle especially this Time of year I didn't expect to see Anything new come out as a matter of Fact I think we have one more new Arma To show you guys hopefully soon on the Channel do you think we should take this To bash mountain or do you think we Should go ramp heavy with our Arma 10th Scale Fury ready to run again it's Linked in the description box below if You want to check it out for yourself Especially the other collar two these Would make amazing Christmas presents a Very cool big box to see under the tree Every kid and big kid in the world would Be thrilled to pick one of these up I Want to say a massive thanks to God for Blessing us with today to jump in front
