1
00:00:07,240 --> 00:00:15,280
all right last one guys this is the Arctic hobby land Rider 507 this is an

2
00:00:12,240 --> 00:00:17,840
excavator it is ready to run it has all

3
00:00:15,280 --> 00:00:21,760
kinds of different cool features but the first feature we're going to show you is

4
00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:30,080
how the Box opens because

5
00:00:24,680 --> 00:00:32,119
that is what we do on this channel

6
00:00:30,080 --> 00:00:37,640
so I've been asked a number of times why am I unboxing fire trucks and tanks and

7
00:00:35,320 --> 00:00:43,960
excavators and the answer is because Arctic hobby is related to Arctic

8
00:00:40,480 --> 00:00:46,800
cooling which is a company that focuses

9
00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:56,399
on PC hardware and has a partnership with NC where I work and ncx sells these

10
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:58,320
and I think they're bous as well so that

11
00:00:56,399 --> 00:01:03,440
those are all the reasons I think that should be fairly uh self-explanatory at

12
00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:07,840
this point I can't figure out how to get that uh controller out well we'll figure

13
00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:13,960
it out after okay here we go so we've got included batteries both 9vt and

14
00:01:11,159 --> 00:01:18,680
battery pack uh we've got a charged battery pack ready to go already down on

15
00:01:15,960 --> 00:01:22,759
the floor over there so you can get um there's an Arctic charging station and

16
00:01:20,479 --> 00:01:27,360
you can use that to charge the batteries um comes with the cable for that which

17
00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:31,000
is somewhere and then you can also get the uh the other charger so that's the

18
00:01:29,479 --> 00:01:36,880
one that we have which is just a wall wart and plugs into the wall okay we've

19
00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:40,720
also got an antenna for the remote so I'm going to go ahead and now I'm going

20
00:01:38,799 --> 00:01:45,360
to go ahead and not do anything because it's stuck and then finally we have one

21
00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:50,759
of those little straws for the antenna that goes onto the excavator itself to

22
00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:52,719
hold it up so that we get better

23
00:01:50,759 --> 00:01:57,799
reception so this is all pretty much your standard fair not a bad idea for a

24
00:01:55,399 --> 00:02:01,960
Christmas gift if there's uh you know someone you know who you don't like very

25
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:05,880
much and their kids around the age that they would enjoy a fire engine or a tank

26
00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:09,720
or an excavator and you want to you want to give their parents something really

27
00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:15,519
noisy and obnoxious here's all the different ways that the ARM is able to

28
00:02:12,599 --> 00:02:20,560
be actuated not actually sure if I used that word correctly but I don't really

29
00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:22,840
care it's very late I'm very tired and I

30
00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:28,879
would like to go home but here I am in the tech tips room you know how it

31
00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:30,959
is okay so let's pull this guy out and

32
00:02:28,879 --> 00:02:35,280
see what we've got

33
00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:41,040
here I mean we've got an excavator I know that much but let's see exactly

34
00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:45,720
what we've got here how does this ah there this comes out that'll

35
00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:54,879
help this this one is secured quite

36
00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:58,159
differently from the other two so that

37
00:02:54,879 --> 00:03:00,519
was what I needed to do to get it

38
00:02:58,159 --> 00:03:06,040
out hopefully I'm not breaking it too badly here there we go we have our

39
00:03:02,239 --> 00:03:08,120
excavator so why don't I let uh slick

40
00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:12,799
who thinks it's hilarious when I break things apparently why don't I let slick

41
00:03:10,519 --> 00:03:20,080
go ahead and take a closer look at the land Rider here while I go ahead and

42
00:03:16,319 --> 00:03:22,319
start getting uh start getting it set up

43
00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:26,280
and take the uh controller out and all that kind of good stuff let's get this

44
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:31,720
off so this is our antenna so in order to get this bad boy set up we're going

45
00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:33,840
to have to go ahead and and uh hold on

46
00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:36,760
there we go run this through the little straw

47
00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:40,720
thingamajiggy you don't have to look closely at what I'm doing over here

48
00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:44,560
that's fine just um show them the straw when it's done so you feed that through

49
00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:49,439
there this thing actually looks pretty good actually all of these I'm surprised

50
00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:54,319
given the price point and given the lack of context that I have for toys that are

51
00:03:52,079 --> 00:03:58,439
available to kids these days and all that I mean you could not buy something

52
00:03:56,720 --> 00:04:02,280
like this for hundred bucks when I was a kid so or like you could probably get

53
00:04:00,799 --> 00:04:06,920
something like this but it certainly wouldn't be remote control like it would

54
00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:12,680
look kind of like this I mean one thing that the that the toys that sort of we

55
00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:14,439
had were were better for was the overall

56
00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:20,079
construction quality like they tended to be made of of metal rather than being

57
00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:25,000
made of plastic um although in terms of durability I'd say all these land Rider

58
00:04:22,280 --> 00:04:29,280
devices are not bad at all because they're fairly solidly built although

59
00:04:26,919 --> 00:04:35,240
what I haven't tried is you know doing extent Ive uh you know crash testing

60
00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:39,039
with them or anything like that so it's hard to say how they're going to hold

61
00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:46,080
out in the long term and I have no idea how you are

62
00:04:42,479 --> 00:04:48,120
expected to remove this oh it's another

63
00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:52,440
removable piece look at that okay there we go yeah there we go so I got to

64
00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:57,840
remove that screw which means I'm going to have to go off camera give me a sec and I'm going to get this all assembled

65
00:04:55,680 --> 00:05:03,160
here and we are going to test out this land Rider 507

66
00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:06,800
like crazy Tech tip style okay guys so I'm just going to

67
00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:11,000
take a closer look cuz I haven't even checked out the land Rider 507 much

68
00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:15,039
myself yet so we've got rubber Treads this is something we've come to expect

69
00:05:12,479 --> 00:05:19,360
from Arctic hobby products we've also got some pretty cool compensation going

70
00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:25,120
on here you see that Flex there so it should be able to go over things fairly

71
00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:29,720
easily uh what else we got here we got little sort of rubber hosing things

72
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:36,520
running around we've got sort of realistic looking Hydraulics with shiny

73
00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:39,440
chromed silver pieces uh that's comes

74
00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:43,880
off and then goes back on cool okay look at that look at that driver's seat it's

75
00:05:40,840 --> 00:05:45,440
too bad that oh wait hold on yeah it's

76
00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:51,000
too bad the door doesn't open otherwise you could totally put like a little action figure dude in there that'd be

77
00:05:48,919 --> 00:05:55,199
kind of neat like a little Lego guy or something okay we got like a light here

78
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:58,400
I wonder if that light actually turns on I wouldn't be that surprised at this

79
00:05:56,720 --> 00:06:03,280
point because so much of their stuff is uh like has light and sirens and whatnot

80
00:06:01,039 --> 00:06:06,120
so here's the bucket so you can see here check this out so that's how the

81
00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:10,599
hydraulics look when they work pretty good pretty good all right

82
00:06:09,039 --> 00:06:15,240
let's uh let's go ahead and get started I'll show you guys the control up close

83
00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:18,840
first Okay so we've got your left tread front and back your uh right tread

84
00:06:17,319 --> 00:06:23,000
forward and backwards and then the bucket goes left and right up and down

85
00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:26,400
and up and down in the various different places so let's try this out first thing

86
00:06:24,759 --> 00:06:29,840
we're going to do is uh lift the lift the bucket up

87
00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:35,199
hey look how fast that goes whoa there

88
00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:39,000
we go okay let's try the other

89
00:06:40,919 --> 00:06:46,960
one all right okay so let's try moving

90
00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:53,310
this bad boy forward a little bit okay and then let's

91
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:55,000
go down down

92
00:06:55,000 --> 00:07:01,000
okay huh I wonder what kind of weight it can

93
00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:07,199
handle like here not much was the answer okay so you

94
00:07:05,280 --> 00:07:11,919
can swing it around and swing it around the other way

95
00:07:09,479 --> 00:07:17,599
oh oh check this out though guys I yep I was right so when you're doing

96
00:07:14,759 --> 00:07:22,160
something this light does turn on oops sorry I'll give you better there you go

97
00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:27,160
so you can see what you're doing in the dark now what kind of speed can we

98
00:07:24,319 --> 00:07:31,960
expect out of the uh the land Rider 507 here let's let's uh move it around on

99
00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:36,970
the tech tips floor

100
00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:43,280
here there's that off-roading that I was

101
00:07:41,039 --> 00:07:46,840
talking about there before we can spin in

102
00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:51,759
place whack the Tex's whiteboard

103
00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:54,919
again bam and then they all like here we

104
00:07:51,759 --> 00:07:57,159
come slowly so it's I don't think it's

105
00:07:54,919 --> 00:08:01,440
as fast as the fire track or the tank but it's got some you know it's got some

106
00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:04,740
go to it it's him

107
00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:32,760
go not a bad gift for kids or child like

108
00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:36,360
adults although you could confuse someone by buying this for them and

109
00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:40,680
putting it this way before you give it to them oh no look at that okay so oh

110
00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:45,519
that's a little bit disappointing so you got to bring it all the way back around

111
00:08:43,159 --> 00:08:49,800
in order to turn it the other way cuz I was going to say you could put it right

112
00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:53,839
backwards and then people be all like oh yeah I think I'm going to go forward and

113
00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:58,440
then the uh the thing would actually go backwards but see now you can see it

114
00:08:55,360 --> 00:09:01,440
does go the correct

115
00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:01,440
direction

116
00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:08,160
wo look at this guy look at him go

117
00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:52,680
okay I think we're done
