00:00:07,440 --> 00:00:13,920
Welcome to what is to be something of a mass unboxing of several products from

2
00:00:12,160 --> 00:00:17,760
Arctic Cooling. Well, Arctic Hobby Arctic Hobby. Sorry. Sorry. Sorry. So,

3
00:00:15,599 --> 00:00:21,520
we have Okay, we've got a few things. Let's get the quick ones out of the way

4
00:00:19,359 --> 00:00:27,439
really quick here. So, we have a charger for batteries. Okay. We also have the

5
00:00:25,519 --> 00:00:30,240
controller that we have. We have three of these controllers, but I only felt it

6
00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:37,040
necessary to grab one of them for the sake of this unboxing. So, the controller allows you to control any one

7
00:00:33,920 --> 00:00:39,280
of these particular

8
00:00:37,040 --> 00:00:43,040
land riders. Okay, so we've had a look at a few Arctic Hobby products so far.

9
00:00:41,120 --> 00:00:48,239
We had a look at their tank, their fire engine, as well as their boat, and I'm

10
00:00:46,879 --> 00:00:53,520
sure there's one more, right? There was an excavator. So,

11
00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:57,760
so far the overall prevailing opinion from us and our viewers is that these

12
00:00:56,079 --> 00:01:02,160
are actually a surprisingly good value and kind of neat for the price. So,

13
00:01:00,719 --> 00:01:05,680
we've got a few more things to check out. So, here's the remote. We haven't

14
00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:11,360
actually looked at this remote up close yet. So, fairly straightforward. You've

15
00:01:08,479 --> 00:01:18,159
got your uh cardboard that is apparently too

16
00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:19,759
complicated for me. Ah, staples.

17
00:01:18,159 --> 00:01:26,080
That's what was going on. Okay, let's flip it over and we'll use the knife to

18
00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:27,920
cut the incredibly thick zip tie that

19
00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:33,119
was deemed necessary by somebody to put on there.

20
00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:36,200
Take another crack at it. There we go. All right.

21
00:01:36,320 --> 00:01:42,000
Now, the controller comes out. So, these controllers, there's your throttle,

22
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:45,200
there's your other stuff. It has multiple channels that are supported up

23
00:01:43,439 --> 00:01:52,000
to two channels, so you can race. Oh, that's kind of nice, actually. It's got like a foamy outside on the sort of

24
00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:56,240
chromy rim looking thingamabber going on here.

25
00:01:54,159 --> 00:02:03,439
There's your power. It's powered by

26
00:01:58,799 --> 00:02:06,320
100 billion AA batteries. Okay.

27
00:02:03,439 --> 00:02:11,879
Actually, not 100 billion, eight. But those numbers are very similar.

28
00:02:08,879 --> 00:02:11,879
Okay.

29
00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:18,000
And the functionality changes depending on what you're using. Ah, this is

30
00:02:16,319 --> 00:02:21,520
interesting. So, this is the crystal module. So, you'll use that to make sure

31
00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:25,760
that you're on the same frequency as whatever particular card that you are

32
00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:30,560
using. So, you can pop that whole thing out, should you so desire. Although, I

33
00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:33,120
really don't see the point, but I'm going to do it anyway. Just because it's

34
00:02:31,920 --> 00:02:38,160
pointless doesn't mean I'm not going to do it on this show. There you go. So, it

35
00:02:36,319 --> 00:02:41,040
works like that. Uh-oh. You better make sure you put that back in carefully cuz

36
00:02:39,599 --> 00:02:44,959
all of those seem to have to go back into the There we go. Okay, so that's

37
00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:49,760
the controller that comes with any one of these given RC vehicles. Now, let's

38
00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:55,440
have a look at the vehicles themselves. So, we have the Land Rider 305 onroad

39
00:02:52,640 --> 00:03:00,319
racing car. We have the Land Rider 307 off-road truck. And we have the Land

40
00:02:57,519 --> 00:03:04,080
Rider 309 off-road trucky. And I think what they mean is truck/buggy. So, let's

41
00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:07,840
get these all opened up. I'm not actually going to do the unboxing for them so we can show you the features of

42
00:03:06,640 --> 00:03:12,800
them because it's going to take way too long to do three unboxings in a row.

43
00:03:10,959 --> 00:03:16,800
So, we've got them opened up now. It was a bit of a headache to get all the

44
00:03:14,879 --> 00:03:23,040
antennas in and all that kind of stuff, but we're pretty much done. So, we've

45
00:03:18,879 --> 00:03:25,920
got the Land Rider 305, 307, and 309.

46
00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:29,440
So, this is the car, the truck, and the Trugy or, you know, truck buggy,

47
00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:33,519
whatever you want to call it. We also have the TO1 digital transmitter. Now,

48
00:03:31,920 --> 00:03:39,040
this can be used to control a number of different models, and you can save different profiles in it. It's actually

49
00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:44,560
got a fairly complicated menu structure, but the documentation that comes with

50
00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:46,959
it, sorry,

51
00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:51,680
spells everything out like this in little uh diagram trees so

52
00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:54,560
you can follow along for whatever it is that you need to do. You can adjust all

53
00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:58,159
kinds of neat stuff like exponential steering and uh reversing your channels

54
00:03:56,799 --> 00:04:03,280
and anything like that that you would want to do. Uh you use the crystal. So,

55
00:04:01,439 --> 00:04:07,120
we've installed the number two band crystal in the back. This is an AM

56
00:04:04,959 --> 00:04:10,080
transmitter. So, uh, this is the same crystal that came with all of these

57
00:04:08,799 --> 00:04:15,760
different trucks, but if you wanted to race them, you need to make sure that you have two separate crystals for the

58
00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:19,359
two vehicles that you want to race at the same time as, you know, your friend

59
00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:23,280
or whoever else. Okay, so let's talk a little bit about the various differences

60
00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:27,120
between these models. So, this guy has very, very low clearance to the ground,

61
00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:32,080
especially once once the weight is on it, these wheels compress a little bit.

62
00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:34,240
So, this is an on-road sort of race car

63
00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:37,919
type thing. shockwise.

64
00:04:35,919 --> 00:04:41,520
Uh oh, yeah, you Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Uh, Slick wants me to mention that. See

65
00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:45,040
how these posts have lots of different holes? You can actually use those to

66
00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:49,040
raise it up a little bit if you want. So, I'll show you guys how easy that is

67
00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:54,000
to do. Removing the top plastic covers is also the way that you access

68
00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:56,720
the internals of the vehicle itself. So, there's the heat sink on the motor.

69
00:04:55,600 --> 00:05:00,960
There's your crystal. So, you can actually change out the crystals not only in the car and the but also in the

70
00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:08,320
transmitter or not only in the transmitter, but also in the car. There's your on switch.

71
00:05:05,759 --> 00:05:10,880
There's your front shocks. Fairly meager on this model, but you guys will see on

72
00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:15,680
the other ones. That's not to say that all of them are like that. Pretty good

73
00:05:12,639 --> 00:05:17,840
on the back. Uh there is your battery

74
00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:22,400
here. Your battery pack includes six cells. So, in order to charge it, all

75
00:05:20,639 --> 00:05:25,840
you do is unplug it from here, run it out from under the plastic cover or not

76
00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:29,759
under the plastic cover, whatever else, and you charge the battery up without

77
00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:33,120
actually removing it from the car at all.

78
00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:37,919
You can see here's the receiver. So, we've only got a couple of different uh

79
00:05:35,280 --> 00:05:42,320
channels that we're using on that. So, basically throttle and then uh this guy

80
00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:45,840
right here. Seems actually fairly well built and just like the uh just like

81
00:05:44,479 --> 00:05:51,320
some of the other ones we've looked at. Like you can see it's got like real tires on it and all that kind of stuff.

82
00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:57,840
Pretty neat. Okay, so let's go ahead and put that one aside for now. So, that's

83
00:05:56,080 --> 00:06:02,800
the on-road racing car. Next, we have the off-road

84
00:06:01,199 --> 00:06:07,199
truck. And this one is actually my personal favorite based on our limited

85
00:06:05,039 --> 00:06:14,319
experience with these vehicles so far because check this out. This one just

86
00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:17,759
looks absolutely built inside.

87
00:06:14,319 --> 00:06:20,240
Looks like the same actual motor, okay?

88
00:06:17,759 --> 00:06:24,880
Same uh receiver, same number of channels being used. All of this stuff

89
00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:30,880
looks pretty darn similar. There's your on switch. Okay. But look at how built

90
00:06:27,840 --> 00:06:33,360
the shocks are on this guy.

91
00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:38,960
So, you got a lot of give there. Actually, tires are like beast. Lots of

92
00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:43,440
traction, all that good stuff. You got your front grill, you got your back

93
00:06:40,479 --> 00:06:47,280
grill. Rear tires are just as built. And what I like about the shocks on this guy

94
00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:52,639
is, check this out. They've got a lot of uh here. There's a bit of a delay before

95
00:06:50,639 --> 00:06:57,680
they come up. So, they're very, very cushiony.

96
00:06:54,720 --> 00:07:01,280
even if it's bouncing around out there, you're going to retain whatever traction

97
00:06:59,599 --> 00:07:05,280
you happen to need. So, that's I think that's pretty cool. So, there's that

98
00:07:03,199 --> 00:07:10,000
one. And then finally, we've got the Truggy. And this one is once again more

99
00:07:07,919 --> 00:07:13,919
built than the on-road car because it's meant for more like uh an off-road type

100
00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:20,639
scenario. Once again, fairly similar internals,

101
00:07:17,599 --> 00:07:22,720
but only one set of shocks and using a

102
00:07:20,639 --> 00:07:26,639
significantly wider spacing of springs. So, they're more bouncy and less

103
00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:30,080
cushiony. So, depending on the scenario you have, this one is probably going to

104
00:07:28,639 --> 00:07:33,919
protect you from a fall a little bit better, but not necessarily as good for

105
00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:37,840
keeping all the tires on the road at any given time because there's a little bit

106
00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:41,919
more bounce to it, a little bit less stability going on there. So, they all

107
00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:45,599
use the same cells inside right here. So, the parts are very interchangeable.

108
00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:49,360
You can see once you look at the internal guts, they are very, very

109
00:07:47,759 --> 00:07:54,879
similar in terms of the platforms that they're built on, much like a Toyota

110
00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:56,960
versus a Lexus. But, um, it's just in

111
00:07:54,879 --> 00:08:01,120
the detailing where the differences really come out. So, thank you for

112
00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:05,520
checking out my unboxing and first look at the Land Rider car series from Arctic

113
00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:12,400
Hobby. Don't forget to subscribe to Lance Tech for more unboxings, reviews, and other computer videos.

114
00:08:09,759 --> 00:08:16,639
So, it's breakfast time and trying out the Land Riders time. This is the 309

115
00:08:14,479 --> 00:08:20,160
right here. So, uh the one that we're actually going to be testing in the

116
00:08:18,479 --> 00:08:24,879
video here is the 307. They're all built on the same platform. It's just varying

117
00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:29,919
shocks anyway, right guys? So, uh there's the 30.

118
00:08:28,319 --> 00:08:34,880
Shoot, which one is that? No, sorry, that's the 309 out there. So, I've got

119
00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:39,120
it in my backyard. I am actually super impressed with the performance of this

120
00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:46,399
thing. So, for one thing, the throttle is uh is not just on off. It's uh

121
00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:49,680
whatever the word is for that. You can adjust all the trims on the controller.

122
00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:55,279
The whole setup process takes only a couple minutes. Uh your wheels are uh

123
00:08:53,279 --> 00:08:58,640
not just straight on off, too. So, you have a lot of granularity in terms of

124
00:08:56,800 --> 00:09:04,880
your steering control. You can turn a little bit, you can turn a lot. Okay, so

125
00:09:01,519 --> 00:09:07,040
here we go. Check this out.

126
00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:12,320
And this is not just the burst of energy it gets um when you first power it on.

127
00:09:10,560 --> 00:09:16,240
This has been going for about 5 minutes already and it's still got a fair amount

128
00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:22,080
of gustoa. You can see that my lawn is very uneven. Um

129
00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:26,160
but in spite of that, it still performs admirably

130
00:09:23,760 --> 00:09:29,600
just climbing over everything here. I'm going to head out into the other part of

131
00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:36,920
the yard as well. So you I can go like over the rocks in the middle. Can you

132
00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:36,920
see? Here we go.

133
00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:47,120
Can get a fair bit of speed going. It can obviously go faster if you bring it

134
00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:51,440
out onto the concrete. You can see it speeds up quite a bit on the concrete,

135
00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:56,800
but yeah, the uh the off-road I mean off-road RC vehicles when I was a kid

136
00:09:53,920 --> 00:10:01,440
certainly did not handle uh off-road Did you lose it? Certainly did not handle

137
00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:06,720
off-road scenarios very well. But it looks like that has changed. So, thank

138
00:10:04,560 --> 00:10:10,480
you for checking out this video of the uh performance and the unboxing. I guess

139
00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:14,399
I'll just amend this to the end of the unboxing. Don't forget to subscribe.
