HPI Blitz bashing

[xXxRc4EvERxXx]

i suggest proline trenchers or M2's

[620ILoveSoccer620]

What batter did you use?

[dwindeyer]

This is my favourite place for R/C TBH.. Liverpool is OK too. I usually try to go in the week day when there is no-one on the track

I get massive air on the tabletop after the first turn using my 4S Savage Flux HP. My mates have broken arms and rods on a Revo 3.3 GP and an E-Maxx but my savage is still alive and kicking! All hail king savage

Sometimes the kids don't mind watching me get more air than them :]

[mainIevent]

@stinky1138 Haha whatever mate, go cry about something worth while

[chanceyunderwood123]

where is that place at

[mainIevent]

@chanceyunderwood123 castle hill

[badshelby]

Why not use the RC car track around the corner ?

We don't like bikes on the RC car track, and most of the guys on BMX's dont like RC cars on their tracks

[mainIevent]

@badshelby Coz the track is shit, I wanted to hit some jumps. And in all honesty we stayed out of the way of the bikes, we moved to a section of track they were not using, however they were riding the bit of track we were at no matter what. I didn't want to start a fight with some young kids so just moved out of their way when they came past.

[minecrafter454]

so quiet!!!!

[mainIevent]

@minecrafter454 That's electric for you. I must prefer my nitro planes and my HPI Baja, but the electric is good for a quick bash

[jackmcdonlad]

is that the stock brushed motor and what battery are you using

[mainIevent]

@jackmcdonlad Stock motor and battery was a 5000mAh NiMh

[TheMuffinManInc]

Megacountryboy92 I'm debating the same thing, but at this point I'm leaning towards blitz

[braco222]

@TheMuffinManInc Get the Blitz. That truck is durable as hell.

[MegaCountryboy92]

im debating should i get the blitz or the slash. im leaning towards the blitz. wat yal think?

[braco222]

@MegaCountryboy92 Blitz definately!

[13reckless13]

put a castle creations motor and spped contoller, then go bash it...this is slow and stupid man....

[mainIevent]

@13reckless13 It has been running a 7700kv Castle Creations Mamba Max system for the past year!

[NAMBUGMAN]

dont hold the throttle when you land a jump

[CostlierLouts88]

2:11 sorry

[CostlierLouts88]

at 1:11 you needed to thotal

[braco222]

I am getting my Blitz tomorrow. I am so excited I watched this video 30 times. Minimum.

[xXrCrusHeRXx]

He needs to put some adjustments on the rear end to get more grab so he doesnt slide so much.

[mattismaco]

hey guys just wondering if this is the track on hoxton park road?? thanks

[mainIevent]

@mattismaco No this is a BMX track in Castle Hill

[braco222]

On which batteries did you guys run these things in the video?

[mainIevent]

@braco222 5000mah NiMh - no we have switched to brushless and LiPo's

[Ronaldo95163]

is that a futaba transmitter?

[braco222]

@Ronaldo95163 Yeah, 4PK

[Ronaldo95163]

@braco222 Thanks :D

[RCBuggy100]

ha pro tec helmet i have one of them lol nice vid man

[jackmcdonlad]

what motor do they have in them they are really queit good vid

[mainIevent]

@jackmcdonlad Standard motor called a Firestorm or something from HPI, it's just a 20t can - nothing special.

[braco222]

@mainIevent 15t :)

[GoFasterStripes1893]

3:26 ! Nice !

[matthewdiscovery1]

Put some glaze on those donuts

[Ivegotaidea]

@matthewdiscovery1 They're powdered donuts MAN!!!!

[mainIevent]

@Ivegotaidea Lol

[djnelson47]

@mainIevent how much is tis it looks sick (awesome)

[mainIevent]

@matthewdiscovery1 No doubt!

[idoeverything733]

@perrysmovie you my friend are a total idiot.. have you seen the savage flux? most durable truck out their quoted by rccaraction. wicked fast. and throw a brushless system in this blitz it would one bad truck. and still durable do your research before you go with what ur friends tell you how it is.

[perrysmovie]

Blitz is too slow to even make those tabletops...hpi is durable just cause theyre so slooowwww

[sc10crashtestdummy]

are these stock? cuz im lookin to get one and want to see how good these are box stock

[ThePinkguns]

are this the brushless or brusshed

[eskimoGangsta]

Yo, I So Wanna Find A BMX Track Like This, Sick Vid Mate. I Posted A Video Response Of What Me And My Cuzn Do. Hope You Enjoy.

[dagks]

Four people need glasses.

[LiveTheLimit]

Why would you wear a suit to play RC?! Unless you're like me, an rc maniac...then I will completely understand. :D

[RTHounds]

Really impressed with this. Its my birthday in March. I've already informed the wife...lolol

[alexhsufc]

i love this video u bash them real hard

[ryanryan8787]

how much does it cost?

[dagks]

@ryanryan8787 200dollars.

[msdtyu1]

when your jumping the truck try and let off the throtle because when you land its really bad for the slipper and your just gonna grind it down really fast doing that

[101austin1]

what batteries were u running in the trucks?

[IamDtvStudios]

Are they stock?

[chevypower1930]

It's just not the same without the sound of a glow engine :/

[dagks]

@chevypower1930 That is true m8 but sometimes i get kinda tired of BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRUUUUUUUUUUU­UURRR

[visaliatrogans2010]

nice trucks man

[wendystits]

whats the name of this track ? wudnt mind avin a rip on my bmx :)

[mainIevent]

@wendystits Castle Hill BMX

[godofcable111]

arent we a little dressy to be at the bmx track bashing our z?Blit

[mainIevent]

@godofcable111 Just came back from work lol

[Razzerkiller]

wat battery are you using and is that stock right out of the box

[abelpina97]

@Razzerkiller the blitz doessnt have a bttery u need to buy one or at least i did

[wakjob94]

lol nice double donuts

[TheCodKiosk]

whats their top speed

[jojoviudez]

Awesome video and I commend your camera man for doing a good job! So do you think you would had more fun with a 4x4 short course truck?

[9852cars]

WOULD YOU SAY ITS BETTER THAN A TRAXXAS SLASH 2WD.ALSO WHAT BATTERI ARE YOU RUNNING

[mainIevent]

@9852cars wI think the Blitz is by far a beter truck, and the batts were NiMh's at the time, but now we run brushless and LiPo

[bullrider837]

those sux any traxxas could beat those

[RyGuy612]

no, these are made with a lot more track performance than a slash. They are lower and the brushed motor is the only thing bad about this. I just bought one and put a VXL brushless system in and it kicks ass. I had a traxxas rustler and it sucked big balls.

[itsmejordan1]

they sound cheap?

[dagks]

@itsmejordan1 They sound cheap?? wtf? O_o

[gtbmxracer405]

does the brushed motor last long?

[michaelbrick85]

whats the top speed with a 11.1v lipo in it

[eendenhoofd]

cool vid, what kind of batteries do you use?

[Dmaelstrom]

You are going to cause an accident!!

[judgegixxer]

Nice track.

[djssplash]

how long can u drive when fully loaded battery?

and how long does it take to charge it?

[mainIevent]

@djssplash

Well it all depends on what battery you run and what setup you run. You can get abot 15-20 mins good runtime on a 500mAh battery, and it only takes an hour to charge

[Vanderkitten]

The last jumps seemed pretty hard! The trucks don't look overly fast, but seem to handle well. Very cool video!!

[mainIevent]

@Vanderkitten

This video was taken when they were stock straight out of the box, but now they are running 7000kv brushless kits and they are FAST - and yes they are very tough

[Vanderkitten]

@mainIevent I ended up getting one a couple of weeks ago. We've set it up and I am running a couple of really lightweight 2C lipos and it jumps great! A nice improvement in the snap out of the corner. Eventually will go brushless, but my mini revo is my speed machine.

[petrolheadkirby]

Nothing was broke because you guys werent bashing hard enough! The blitz can handle way bigger jumps on a brushless and lipo setup :)

[mainIevent]

@petrolheadkirby this is what we are running now, 7000kv Mamba Max setups!

[JesseridesBMX]

how much run time did u get out of the 5000mah nimh

[mainIevent]

@JesseridesBMX around 20 mins I think

[rwlst626]

is that the standar-version of it?

or are there actually tuning-parts built-in?

[buckwild4567]

Were is the bashing???

[Vanderkitten]

@buckwild4567 LOL!!

[boatwake]

is it all stock

[skathious1]

yes man!!!! it looked good when you made that table top. i was waiting the whole video to see that. would you say that the blitz is a good basher? any problems? small parts that break? hows the run time?

[mainIevent]

@skathious1 Very tough truck, no problems so far, and we are running Mamba Mx brushless kits in them now and they fly

[50nollieman]

is this goodfor a beginner?

[mainIevent]

@50nollieman yes they are a good beginner truck

[50nollieman]

did anything break?

[mainIevent]

@50nollieman No, nothing broke in this video

[fathead431]

what was the pack voltage you were using? i.e. 6 cells or 7 cells?

[mainIevent]

@fathead431 5000mAh LiPo's

[starguard]

Are these cars waterproof like the Traxxas Slash?

[fathead431]

@starguard no.

[Mikeva93]

@starguard Blitz in stock isn't waterproof

[mainIevent]

@starguard no they are not

[stephenjray1988]

@mainIevent are these stock?

[MegaRallycar]

@starguard But Hpi just came out with a car thats water proof faster than traxxas and 2.4ghz radio how cool its called the new hpi E-firestorm brushless it also has a cool body

[Waggyjrjr]

has anything broke on these car's?

not in this video, but in general?

[mainIevent]

@Waggyjrjr No nothing yet, and we bash them hard everytime we get them out

[RyGuy612]

mine is indestructible i swair.

[blackgavin97]

@Waggyjrjr ive owned one for 4 months not and i havent broken anything in it and im 13! haha

[RcCarzNDrumz]

is this a standard blitz?

and what battery are you using?

[MrGidi123]

Top speed out the Box?

[757jdog]

@MrGidi123 bout 30 but i got today and there the shnit

[deadeye120596]

wow i got a traxxas slash and im regreting it now :)....great vid i cant believe thats a nimh pack

[bubbyriggins]

@deadeye120596 trust me slashes are better i own one

[reneedmorris]

is a kid going to get owned by an rc car in this video?????

[mainIevent]

@reneedmorris no sorry!

[harveymacdonald]

amazing park!! what to go their on my bike :D

[TheSpeedy860]

I just got mine and it is amazing!!!! Have not used it outside yet because it is rainging, but I cant wait to!!!!

[MrBlazer12345]

Use Brushless

[TheSpeedy860]

I am going to buy a Blitz but I am was wondering if it was still worth it, if i use a nimh battery. Would it be really slow? Could it do the jump you were doing? bty, what battery were you using?

[mainIevent]

@TheSpeedy860 These Blitz were stock out the box (purchased the same day as this video was filmed) We were using NiMh batterys that you can buy anywhere, stock motors, stock tires, stock suspension setup. This is how they drive/handle out of the box.

[nam71594]

@TheSpeedy860 the blitz is made to use only 7.2 nimh unless u upgrade to a new motor and esc, but by the looks of its speed, thats as stock as it gets, great truck. i raced against one with my associated sc10 and it beat the crape outta me!

[plasmaedg3]

your in aussie right!!

Man that track has a loose surface, you need more rear toe in!!

[mainIevent]

@plasmaedg3 We are, in the Hills district. The surface is very loose, it's a BMX track - they are setup pretty good actually, this was our first time driving them

[chechubelo]

does the trucks has lipos ?

[mainIevent]

@chechubelo No, 5000mAh NiMh

[chechubelo]

2s lipo?

[discoslot]

what plug do you need for your lipo

thanks in advance

discosurf

[TheSpeedy860]

How long does the battery last and are they really good value for money?

[racin93]

worlds toughest truck

[TheSpeedy860]

How much did you get it for?

[mainIevent]

@TheSpeedy860 You can pick them up for about $250 to $300 in Aus now

[ipoodFTW]

nice vid. I more of a nitro kinda guy. I love the smell and sound. BUT, I did buy a Blitz today and ran it during the cooldown of my MGT 8.0 break in. I have to say, this Blitz is great and would recommend it to anyone. A lot quicker than I expected and cant wait to see it on a LiPo. Bottom line: this truck has more "personality" than any of my other rc's, including nitros. Well done on the vid 5 stars

[mainIevent]

@ipoodFTW I love the smell of petrol from my Baja 5B SS but these Blitz's are a great toy to have in the garage when your not running the Baja

[MrpUberThemes]

That's a great looking track, would luv to blast my Baja around that. I must get my Blitz out more too, hardly used it since putting a brushless in it at Xmas.

Good to see you guys got more confident as the vid progresses, well done.

[mainIevent]

@MrpUberThemes Thanks for the comments mate. We took it carefully to see what the Blitz could do, but they are bloody strong

[ozpall]

nice track, you need to practice ur driving thou.

[dieselvsgas1]

that track looks real fun

[mainIevent]

@dieselvsgas1 It's a BMX track so plenty of space and jumps!

[111jjones]

awesome truck......, nice vid

[mainIevent]

@111jjones Cheers mate!

[joshuaejackson]

one of the most entertaining rc off-road vids I've seen. Thanks for sharing. I'm waiting on the Blitz ese

[SINDIDificaion]

have you change the motor?

[mainIevent]

@SINDIDificaion Those Blitz were fresh of the box, nothing was changed from when you take it out of the box

[RobChappers09]

If there was a bmx track that good near my house id be annoyed if there was sum guy standing in the middle driving an rc car

[DrnkSqrrlProductions]

@RobChappers09

If its a public track, to fucking bad, everyone has to share.

[RobChappers09]

@DrnkSqrrlProductions A public BMX TRACK

[DrnkSqrrlProductions]

@RobChappers09

Cry us a river, build a bridge and get over it.

[RobChappers09]

@DrnkSqrrlProductions build a build???

[pickleracoon]

im going to get a blitz soon

[magepur227]

what batterypack you used?

lipo?

[kuuba13]

Very nice car , and ride 5/5

[starguard]

Is that all stock? Also, is it waterproof?

[mortie806]

nope not waterproof

[exceedrc926]

would u guysrecomend this car, and how is it durability wise

[giantdavid89]

@exceedrc926 this is a great running truck, people at the track near me compair this to the sc10, then if you want durability the slash is the tank, and the strike is probably the last one you want to choose. The sc10 and blitz are pretty much the same design expect for the blitz bumbers which are designed from the baja 5t. If you plan on a short course truck get the blitz or sc10.

[gravediggerracing]

Let off the throttle after jumping.

[dawnspiper73]

Great vid mate...those things are pretty fast out of the box...and durable too by the looks of things :)

[nipperoid]

did this break anything?

[popsnacks2]

its ment for a dirt track i have one that i run on my driveway

[mainIevent]

@nipperoid We didn't break a thing in this video

[toshbrd5]

@nipperoid the body seem so weak and flimsy but its soo strong!!!!

[iiaann77c]

how fast?

[mainIevent]

Stock standard not that fast but still fast enough on dirt

[rcmaniac00]

what kind and size of battery are you running in that thing

[mainIevent]

5000mah nimh

[coolio2kX]

Good Vid 5*

[Ghostrider8686]

Great fun, i can't wait to try out a BMX track!

[thecoolman101]

wow that blitz is alot better than I gave credit for. but there are only tw othings I dont like about it. the acceleration on them doesnt seam to good, but that can be fixed because its a stock motor. ando, the original steering block isnt that good. I got a slash ,and I race it so I got experience and I roll with th good guys at my track Im usually in the top 3.

[RCtamiya]

one oof the best videos ive seen for trophy truck RC's, and you werent even trying to make an amazing video It looked like soo much fun, you really shoulda had some slow mo on some of the jumps because i couldnt tell it was an RC, if there wasnt people, id of mistaken it for a real truck! GREAT JOB 5*

[mainIevent]

@RCtamiya hey mate thanks a lot for your comments :)

[rcchecker11]

nice! 5*

[mainIevent]

@rcchecker11 cheers mate!

[Megop003]

You should brake halfway through the air to pitch down the nose so the rear doesnt bottom out
