Exceed RC Sunfire Electric RC Buggy * Beginners Guide Part 1

[RCBlades007]

@xXxDJSCR33MxXx Top tip if you're starting out, this kit will break very easy, but it's cheap to replace those plastic parts:-) Run it first and once you feel you like this hobby is for you then upgrade to a better quality and then invest in brushless&LiPo's as its the electrics that co$t!!!!

[7ETRIX]

How do i know when my battery is full or not? btw what does the blinking light mean when i charge it? I have a red blinking light on the charger.

[nitrorcx]

@7ETRIX The light on the stock charger is suppose to go solid green when the battery is done charging. You can get a aftermarket charger that reads the voltage so you know for sure the battery is fully charged.

[7ETRIX]

@nitrorcx Thank you.

[theotherguy1231000]

i am getting this buggy and i wanted to know if i can yous a 3cell 11.1v battery pack on this car i REALLY need to know because i am getting this car off of ebay and the guy said it needs a new battery pack.

[nitrorcx]

@theotherguy1231000 The one that you found on ebay is it the brushed or brushless model? If its the brushless one then yes you can use a 3 cell lipo with it, if its the brushed model then no I wouldn't recommend it.

[xX0m3gaki11zXx]

And also, when it goes off a jump. The front plastic thing that holds the wheels and bends with the shocks gets stuck all the time. Please anyone, any answers and/ or solutions as to why its doing this?

[RCBoyanizer]

@SkyGam3 99$ brushed and 150$ brushless at nitrorcx.

[sk8rboi102]

if i use a 8.4v battery i had from a previous car, would it improve speed without hurting any internals??

[onlinegamer26]

how fast can it go cuz im going to buy it

[RCBoyanizer]

@onlinegamer26  brushed it goes 15-20 MPH and brushless 35-45 MPH

[StoneyPoint100]

Are there any advantages to a brushless motor instead of brushed?

[RCBoyanizer]

@StoneyPoint100 brushless goes faster by about 15mph but the brushless battery only lasts about 5-10mins

[timtoms22]

What is the difference between a brushless motor and this one? WIth one is the best? Thank you

[RCBoyanizer]

@timtoms22 i have a brushed and i am happy with the speed because it goes about15-20mph

[gog3tass4]

The exceed looks like the shock wave 

[CamMotionTV]

Im new to R/C and i have a question..Why do you adjust the wing? whats it do?

[Shockinator9K1]

@CamMotionTV

On RC cars, nothing. They just look cool.

[codmodwod]

i just got mine today and i was wondering on the first charge how long should i charge it and then after the first charge how long should i charge it? thanks, steven

[matthewdiscovery1]

Did u break in the moter

[cappegappe]

sry bout my bad english

[cappegappe]

how fast does it goes?

[goldeagle747]

@cappegappe the brushed one goes about 20mph

[fordfan25]

for any one thinking of getting one, i recommend just going with brushless from the start. not only is brushless faster but it also last longer, the run time is longer as the motor is much more effciant *spelling sorry*, Brushless has no need of a break in period, also you need to do a lot more matanince with brushed and as the motor gets used it starts getting weaker were as brushless remains fast with use.

[twostickmapex]

CAN I HANDLE A NOVAC BRUSHLESS SYSTEM THT DOES ABOUT 70 AND NOT HAVE ALL THE GEARS STRIPPED

[ROCKST4R96]

What's the dif between brush and brush less

[Underlord1300]

@ROCKST4R96 the motor type. brushed is old school tech. TWO wires come out of the motor. the new stuff has THREE wires. now, the difference is that brushed gets too hot too quick, and slower. but, cheaper. brushless, have longer life, faster, and cooler. you can run two packs after the other on brushless, brushed, its rare. however for the good stuffs of brushless, itll be expensive. but!, it depends on what you wanna do. hope this helped

[THEGRIMREAPER5650]

that is the old version, the new brushless ones are great!!!

[brocket724]

That actually helped me very much good vid thanks alot

[geekkid34]

how much?

[futballer1324]

Do you know if this car is waterproof?

[elbory1246]

@ NITRORCX great video very imformative . I'm planning to buy 2 one for my son he is 11 and one for my self . Is this model good for beginners, or you recommend other models.

[XxxkyleweitxxX]

[scooterforlife1999]

Thankyou you really helped me :)

[dexter21ism]

how fast does this run stock

[bmartin22]

@dexter21ism Its not super fast. I own one if your purchase do not put a lipo it will have motor melt down on the stock motor mine now runs a castle 4500kv stupid fast i have a video of it before i broke it i recommend spending the money on one from your local hobby shop where i live i have to order these parts online

if you get the brush version and switch to brushless the trans gears wont hold well atleast mine didnt

[ArmoredSaint63]

I got one of the truggys but its garbage so far thier tech hasnt done anything for me and the truck.. run out of the box is false.. well this one that is and Im disappointed in thier product. Hope you all get your money back if you get a rotten egg.

Peace!

[mzgecko]

[Quadryder28]

[DarkSkysify]

i had a 1/16scale buggy by exceed and they were fun to run but ther heavy , anyways i hope you had upgraded yours to a brushless,

[ultimatequickscoper]

nitro rc cars are soooooooo muchhhhh bettterrrr mahn:D

[fernades45]

what is the turn of the brushed motor? 17T? :S

[grandtheftauto4123]

electric is so much better than gas. faster and if it fails or a part burns out its easy to find what it was.

[smeelokilo]

I have the thunder AC6 charger to and it pwns. It will charge those batteries in 10-15 mins at 2.5 amps.

[teamrckid]

whenever i turn sharply at high speed my buggy makes a crackling noise. i have to stop and start again to make it go away. the sound seems mechanical (like some gear slipping)

what is going on?

i don't want to harm my sunfire!

[nascar99999999]

I WANT THIS FOR CHRISTMAS

[videomobb]

which is better electric or nitro gas?

[alihan2112]

people can argue for hours on what u just asked it all depends on which u prefer

[Evanator00]

hey im thinking about getting an rc car and i am thinking about the exceed rc sunfire pro or the exceed rc dynamite pro which one should i get?

[FrontalTraction]

Sunfire.

[mikestar50]

nice buggy i gonna buy the hobbytech str8 ep

[elcanapas11]

hey i want to buy a battery charger for my rc car batteries and ive seen that charger mainly with helis and plane batteries do you have any problems charging the car battery on that charger.? would you recommend that chager for car batteries ? thx for the help

[nitrorcx]

As long as your charging within voltage and mah then you should be fine

[alexmain13]

I can see u got some new electric cars on your website =)

[QTRJOKER94]

BTW im talking about the brushless pro version

[QTRJOKER94]

im thinking of buying of this, but...

Im thinking of putting in a 7-Cell 8.4V 5000mAh NiMH on it.

Will a 7 cell fit or not????

[boomringleader]

Hi mikestar50 the 3900kv motor should go about 15% faster and will use more power but might have lower torque at low speed.

[mikestar50]

thanks :D

[bestdrummerdude]

also how high of jumps can it do? 5 inches or 5 feet

[bestdrummerdude]

I was thinking about buying the brushed version the $99 dolar one. About how fast can it go and is it still posible to drift without the gyro?

So because it not water proof you can not drive it in snow?

[omfgg3tlost]

okay that is stupid why is the battery plugged into the car when you get it it should be unplugged so it doesntdrain the batt

[kookoo445]

are there any limits as to what you cant drive it over?

[nitrorcx]

water, or anything that can damage the electronics

[bobble102]

eletric cars can go alot faster than gas or nitro

[nitrorcx]

Depends on which motor or engine. They both have advantages and can go as fast as your wallet can stretch

[SchneiderStudios]

What's wrong if it shuts off in the middle of driving with a fully charged battery and then it turn on again by itself? when it turns off the red light blinks on the buggy.

[nitrorcx]

There could be a range problem, do you have the antenna of the car and transmitter pulled out? I recommend that you call our support lines or visit our forum at rcdiscuss . com

[kookoo445]

@nitrorcx okay thanks for thge help. also one more thing can u get it a little wet? and muddy?

[nitrorcx]

not recommended, you will need to waterproof the electronics

[kookoo445]

@nitrorcx okay so i can just spray some water repellent on it and it should be fine?

[nitrorcx]

not exactly, you would need to seal the electronics in some enclosure where water cannot touch it. but make sure there is enough ventilation so they won't heat up
