Losi 1/4 Promoto-MX Motorcycle
#151
Um in cased you missed it, Rick Vessel stated above that Losi did indeed team up with GPM.
I agree this thread should move towards peoples actual experience with the bike, but if you read through this thread that wasn't happening that's why I was ASKING questions which no one answered which lead me to speculation (RIck Vessel only decided to jump in once things started to heat up and if you read through you will see he only pops in when things heat up, maybe/hopefully that changes going forward, I'm sure his knowledge would be very much apperciated) and yes I know how I sound and I know how people perceive me, but I could care less what a bunch of people who have never met or have had an actual conversation think of me.

If you can't spot the troll in the last ten posts -- you are the troll.

exocaged changed out the receiver/gyro and adjusted gyro settings and it didnt handle well. Really helps you see how good the factory settings are. He went back to factory receiver/gyro. He has some good videos on it and you can hear in his voice how much fun he has with it. With rc (it is a hobby for 99.9% of us after all) it's the fun factor and giddy grin it puts on your face that matters most.

Really, name calling? How about you and others accept that there are people out there that have an opposing opinion to yours and we have a right to express said opinions. No need to resort to calling people names. Mods please look into this, thank you. For the record I don't own any Traxxas products, but I do own a couple of Losi's and Axial's.

You are correct, I do pop in when things seem to be more negative. I wanted to offer what little levity I can to lighten the mood. Going forward I will try to drop more set up and tuning information. I tend to scroll through the forums in the morning after I check emails.
FYI, it's Vessell, two Ls please and thank you.

Interesting. I wonder if this is why the bike has a stationery rider? If the gyro acts weird on berms it would probably freak out with an active rider. Can the gyro on this bike be disabled or is it built into the ESC/Receiver? If the gyro can't be disabled, has anyone tried aftermarket electronics to see how the bike drives without the gyro, anyone with a bike willing to give this a shot? If memory serves correct the Kyosho bike uses a weight in the wheels to simulate a gyro, so maybe an aftermarket company comes along with a wheel weight so the gyro can be ditched. Again this is where BTS video would be awesome. It would eliminate all the guessing and speculation.

I'm quite interested in seeing how and if a market develops for this kind of bike. For some reason I was reminded of a guy who was racing a Losi 1/10 Baja Rey with SCT trucks. He modified and tuned the truck, but it was still running the solid rear axle and trailing arms. His efforts and driving skill had his truck running at the front for many races, which I would have thought not to be remotely possible. It highlighted his commitment to the tech and driving skill, and I think this bike falls into that same category where it will both surprise and shine for drivers who are willing to learn it's quirks. I like what Losi did with this product.
