WEBVTT 00:00:07.440 --> 00:00:13.920 Welcome to what is to be something of a mass unboxing of several products from 00:00:12.160 --> 00:00:17.760 Arctic Cooling. Well, Arctic Hobby Arctic Hobby. Sorry. Sorry. Sorry. So, 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 00:00:19.359 --> 00:00:27.439 really quick here. So, we have a charger for batteries. Okay. We also have the 00:00:25.519 --> 00:00:30.240 controller that we have. We have three of these controllers, but I only felt it 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 00:00:33.920 --> 00:00:39.280 of these particular 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. 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 00:00:46.879 --> 00:00:53.520 sure there's one more, right? There was an excavator. So, 00:00:51.200 --> 00:00:57.760 so far the overall prevailing opinion from us and our viewers is that these 00:00:56.079 --> 00:01:02.160 are actually a surprisingly good value and kind of neat for the price. So, 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 00:01:04.000 --> 00:01:11.360 actually looked at this remote up close yet. So, fairly straightforward. You've 00:01:08.479 --> 00:01:18.159 got your uh cardboard that is apparently too 00:01:13.600 --> 00:01:19.759 complicated for me. Ah, staples. 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 00:01:22.400 --> 00:01:27.920 cut the incredibly thick zip tie that 00:01:26.080 --> 00:01:33.119 was deemed necessary by somebody to put on there. 00:01:31.040 --> 00:01:36.200 Take another crack at it. There we go. All right. 00:01:36.320 --> 00:01:42.000 Now, the controller comes out. So, these controllers, there's your throttle, 00:01:40.000 --> 00:01:45.200 there's your other stuff. It has multiple channels that are supported up 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 00:01:49.280 --> 00:01:56.240 chromy rim looking thingamabber going on here. 00:01:54.159 --> 00:02:03.439 There's your power. It's powered by 00:01:58.799 --> 00:02:06.320 100 billion AA batteries. Okay. 00:02:03.439 --> 00:02:11.879 Actually, not 100 billion, eight. But those numbers are very similar. 00:02:08.879 --> 00:02:11.879 Okay. 00:02:13.200 --> 00:02:18.000 And the functionality changes depending on what you're using. Ah, this is 00:02:16.319 --> 00:02:21.520 interesting. So, this is the crystal module. So, you'll use that to make sure 00:02:20.080 --> 00:02:25.760 that you're on the same frequency as whatever particular card that you are 00:02:24.080 --> 00:02:30.560 using. So, you can pop that whole thing out, should you so desire. Although, I 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 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 00:02:36.319 --> 00:02:41.040 works like that. Uh-oh. You better make sure you put that back in carefully cuz 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 00:02:43.200 --> 00:02:49.760 the controller that comes with any one of these given RC vehicles. Now, let's 00:02:48.160 --> 00:02:55.440 have a look at the vehicles themselves. So, we have the Land Rider 305 onroad 00:02:52.640 --> 00:03:00.319 racing car. We have the Land Rider 307 off-road truck. And we have the Land 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 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 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. 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 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 00:03:18.879 --> 00:03:25.920 got the Land Rider 305, 307, and 309. 00:03:23.040 --> 00:03:29.440 So, this is the car, the truck, and the Trugy or, you know, truck buggy, 00:03:28.080 --> 00:03:33.519 whatever you want to call it. We also have the TO1 digital transmitter. Now, 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 00:03:36.560 --> 00:03:44.560 got a fairly complicated menu structure, but the documentation that comes with 00:03:41.440 --> 00:03:46.959 it, sorry, 00:03:44.560 --> 00:03:51.680 spells everything out like this in little uh diagram trees so 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 00:03:53.040 --> 00:03:58.159 kinds of neat stuff like exponential steering and uh reversing your channels 00:03:56.799 --> 00:04:03.280 and anything like that that you would want to do. Uh you use the crystal. So, 00:04:01.439 --> 00:04:07.120 we've installed the number two band crystal in the back. This is an AM 00:04:04.959 --> 00:04:10.080 transmitter. So, uh, this is the same crystal that came with all of these 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 00:04:13.920 --> 00:04:19.359 two vehicles that you want to race at the same time as, you know, your friend 00:04:17.040 --> 00:04:23.280 or whoever else. Okay, so let's talk a little bit about the various differences 00:04:20.880 --> 00:04:27.120 between these models. So, this guy has very, very low clearance to the ground, 00:04:25.520 --> 00:04:32.080 especially once once the weight is on it, these wheels compress a little bit. 00:04:28.880 --> 00:04:34.240 So, this is an on-road sort of race car 00:04:32.080 --> 00:04:37.919 type thing. shockwise. 00:04:35.919 --> 00:04:41.520 Uh oh, yeah, you Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Uh, Slick wants me to mention that. See 00:04:39.600 --> 00:04:45.040 how these posts have lots of different holes? You can actually use those to 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 00:04:46.400 --> 00:04:54.000 to do. Removing the top plastic covers is also the way that you access 00:04:52.080 --> 00:04:56.720 the internals of the vehicle itself. So, there's the heat sink on the motor. 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 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. 00:05:05.759 --> 00:05:10.880 There's your front shocks. Fairly meager on this model, but you guys will see on 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 00:05:12.639 --> 00:05:17.840 on the back. Uh there is your battery 00:05:15.680 --> 00:05:22.400 here. Your battery pack includes six cells. So, in order to charge it, all 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 00:05:24.400 --> 00:05:29.759 under the plastic cover, whatever else, and you charge the battery up without 00:05:27.440 --> 00:05:33.120 actually removing it from the car at all. 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 00:05:35.280 --> 00:05:42.320 channels that we're using on that. So, basically throttle and then uh this guy 00:05:40.320 --> 00:05:45.840 right here. Seems actually fairly well built and just like the uh just like 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. 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 00:05:56.080 --> 00:06:02.800 the on-road racing car. Next, we have the off-road 00:06:01.199 --> 00:06:07.199 truck. And this one is actually my personal favorite based on our limited 00:06:05.039 --> 00:06:14.319 experience with these vehicles so far because check this out. This one just 00:06:09.440 --> 00:06:17.759 looks absolutely built inside. 00:06:14.319 --> 00:06:20.240 Looks like the same actual motor, okay? 00:06:17.759 --> 00:06:24.880 Same uh receiver, same number of channels being used. All of this stuff 00:06:22.080 --> 00:06:30.880 looks pretty darn similar. There's your on switch. Okay. But look at how built 00:06:27.840 --> 00:06:33.360 the shocks are on this guy. 00:06:30.880 --> 00:06:38.960 So, you got a lot of give there. Actually, tires are like beast. Lots of 00:06:36.400 --> 00:06:43.440 traction, all that good stuff. You got your front grill, you got your back 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 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 00:06:50.639 --> 00:06:57.680 they come up. So, they're very, very cushiony. 00:06:54.720 --> 00:07:01.280 even if it's bouncing around out there, you're going to retain whatever traction 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 00:07:03.199 --> 00:07:10.000 one. And then finally, we've got the Truggy. And this one is once again more 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 00:07:12.240 --> 00:07:20.639 scenario. Once again, fairly similar internals, 00:07:17.599 --> 00:07:22.720 but only one set of shocks and using a 00:07:20.639 --> 00:07:26.639 significantly wider spacing of springs. So, they're more bouncy and less 00:07:24.400 --> 00:07:30.080 cushiony. So, depending on the scenario you have, this one is probably going to 00:07:28.639 --> 00:07:33.919 protect you from a fall a little bit better, but not necessarily as good for 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 00:07:35.840 --> 00:07:41.919 more bounce to it, a little bit less stability going on there. So, they all 00:07:39.360 --> 00:07:45.599 use the same cells inside right here. So, the parts are very interchangeable. 00:07:43.840 --> 00:07:49.360 You can see once you look at the internal guts, they are very, very 00:07:47.759 --> 00:07:54.879 similar in terms of the platforms that they're built on, much like a Toyota 00:07:51.280 --> 00:07:56.960 versus a Lexus. But, um, it's just in 00:07:54.879 --> 00:08:01.120 the detailing where the differences really come out. So, thank you for 00:07:59.440 --> 00:08:05.520 checking out my unboxing and first look at the Land Rider car series from Arctic 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. 00:08:09.759 --> 00:08:16.639 So, it's breakfast time and trying out the Land Riders time. This is the 309 00:08:14.479 --> 00:08:20.160 right here. So, uh the one that we're actually going to be testing in the 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 00:08:22.240 --> 00:08:29.919 shocks anyway, right guys? So, uh there's the 30. 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 00:08:32.240 --> 00:08:39.120 it in my backyard. I am actually super impressed with the performance of this 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 00:08:44.800 --> 00:08:49.680 whatever the word is for that. You can adjust all the trims on the controller. 00:08:48.080 --> 00:08:55.279 The whole setup process takes only a couple minutes. Uh your wheels are uh 00:08:53.279 --> 00:08:58.640 not just straight on off, too. So, you have a lot of granularity in terms of 00:08:56.800 --> 00:09:04.880 your steering control. You can turn a little bit, you can turn a lot. Okay, so 00:09:01.519 --> 00:09:07.040 here we go. Check this out. 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. 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 00:09:14.240 --> 00:09:22.080 of gustoa. You can see that my lawn is very uneven. Um 00:09:19.600 --> 00:09:26.160 but in spite of that, it still performs admirably 00:09:23.760 --> 00:09:29.600 just climbing over everything here. I'm going to head out into the other part of 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 00:09:32.320 --> 00:09:36.920 see? Here we go. 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 00:09:44.640 --> 00:09:51.440 out onto the concrete. You can see it speeds up quite a bit on the concrete, 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 00:09:53.920 --> 00:10:01.440 certainly did not handle uh off-road Did you lose it? Certainly did not handle 00:09:59.040 --> 00:10:06.720 off-road scenarios very well. But it looks like that has changed. So, thank 00:10:04.560 --> 00:10:10.480 you for checking out this video of the uh performance and the unboxing. I guess 00:10:09.200 --> 00:10:14.399 I'll just amend this to the end of the unboxing.
