- [Carl] I took the biggest
RC car that I have in stock,
the Traxxas X Maxx, and
fitted it with 14 inch,
stainless steel, real, doomsday,
saw blade reaper tires.
This is gonna be crazy.
(laughing)
- [Jinger] Wow, we lost a wheel!
- Talking a little fast.
If you don't know what I mean,
I've retrofitted RC cars
before with saw blade tires,
and paddle tires, and
done crazy experiments.
Check this out.
(rock music)
Here's the actual paddle tires
from when we drove across the water.
I really want to, like, fix these up,
and make them look a lot
cooler, and try this again.
But maybe on the river with some jumps.
Let me show you why I'm
excited about today, okay.
So this is the RC car,
the Traxxas E-Revo that I've used before,
and put these saw blades on for tires.
And I thought this was pretty hardcore.
These are not even close
to the biggest blades.
And the E-Revo is not even close
to the biggest and fastest RC truck.
I think we're the first
people ever to do this.
And since this is the size of the E-Revo,
we might as well go big.
That's the size of the X Maxx
that we're going to use today.
Compared to the E-Revo,
the X Maxx is way bigger,
it's way faster, the diameter
of the tires is a lot larger.
We're going to have to get
much larger saw blade tires,
but make sure it can still
turn, and still function,
and figure out a way to strap it on there.
It's actually really early in the morning,
everybody's asleep.
I'm trying to surprise
my family with all this
before they wake up.
So, last time, I attached
the saw blade tires
to the RC car with these
plumbing bands and stuff,
but I'm not really happy with it.
They're not very forgiving or flexible.
So, I think I've come
up with a better system.
(upbeat music)
(drilling)
(beeping)
It's alive.
(laughing)
I am so excited to show you
guys this awesome reaper,
saw blade tire, RC car.
This is so cool.
You guys have given us
so much awesome support
and love over the years.
In fact, one of these RC car videos,
where we drove with paddle
tires across the water,
has over 20 million views.
I want to thank you guys so much.
So, I really went bigger and
better than I ever have before
with the biggest RC car,
and the biggest saw
blades that I could find.
14 inch diameter ones.
So, I hope you guys smash the like button
and subscribe if you haven't already.
I'm ready to show you
this truck, it's awesome.
(upbeat music)
First off, you guys, I'm really excited.
I think my custom cable
attachment system actually worked.
It's holding really strong,
and I only have to use one
cable per tire, per wheel.
We'll see if that works and holds up.
I don't know, these blades
are super aggressive.
I went with a smaller tooth
diameter in the front,
and then the larger in the back.
So, we get all the grip to the rear tire,
and better steering in the front.
We've learned that from
previous experiments.
I completely customized the paint job.
I did decal, I even did some pin striping,
and little details, made the
windows look nice and tented
and some cool stuff like that.
Just to make it look awesome.
Now you guys can really
see the size difference.
Look at the X Maxx above the E-Revo.
So much larger with the
big 14 inch diameter tires.
This is going to be crazy
with these saw blades.
We're going to have to put it to the test.
It's time to go wake up the
family and head down to the
river and check out this RC car.
You guys also need to go check
out our new gaming channel,
where we're playing
Minecraft challenges, games,
and adventures, and things like that.
It's called Galactavibe.
There's going to be a
link up in the eye card
and down in the description below.
It's super fun.
We've already got a couple of episodes
and plenty more to come.
Make sure and go check it out.
If you like video games and Minecraft,
you're going to love this.
- [Jinger] Holy smokes.
- We're going to take
it down to the river.
I've even brought some
repair tools and everything,
and Jinger's here with me now.
You excited to try this out?
- [Jinger] Yeah, this looks awesome.
- Hopefully it survives,
and we're going to take it
home for some doomsday tests.
- [Jinger] Just so everyone knows,
that car does weigh 1000 pounds.
It is so heavy with the weight
of the blades and the RC car.
- It's not exactly the
safest thing to carry around.
I mean, you don't want to
accidentally bump yourself.
It's not forgiving.
My biggest concern about this
is not the tires, actually.
I think the motor might fail.
The components of the motor
might have to overwork itself
in order to drive, but we'll find out.
Alright, we're going to
do our first test drive.
We're just going to roost
it right off the hill,
and we're gonna go for it, ready?
- [Jinger] Yeah, let's do it.
Wow!
Whoa, Carl!
- [Carl] That had way more
traction that I thought!
Look at the tracks, look at all of that.
- [Jinger] Wow, look at all that.
- [Carl] It dug in, and peeled out hard.
It just straight wheelied
all the way down.
- Barely touched here.
It's like one, two, and then it landed.
It jumped clear off the hill.
- There's quite a few
rocks in this area, Carl.
So, why don't we go down to the sand?
- Yeah.
- Where it's a little
more forgiving on the car.
I just don't want it to break right away.
- I can't resist driving
it through the jungle.
Look at this.
As it claws its way through.
Like the crazy beast of
the jungle, look at it go.
It's unstoppable.
Climbable power, it chops its way through.
All right, let's see what
this thing can do in the sand.
Here we go.
(rock music)
- [Jinger] Whoa!
- [Carl] I don't want to break it yet.
- [Jinger] Oh, no!
It's stuck in all the bushes!
You're stuck!
Here we go.
Oh, it's totally caught up
on these vines really quick.
- [Carl] Let's see if we
can get it out of there.
Yeah, there's sharp sticks right there.
- [Jinger] I think it just
got hung up on the roots.
- So far it's doing pretty
good, let's keep going.
(techno music)
Oh, look at this, I almost
went right off into the river.
- [Jinger] Whoa!
- [Carl] It's a little bit crazy.
Let's see if I can back it out of here.
- [Jinger] Yeah!
Nice!
- I think it does actually
hill climb pretty well.
We should go over here and try it out.
Here is the first real test
that we're going to
put this thing through.
We're going to see if it can
drive down the sandy hill,
a little bit through the water,
and then hill climb back up.
See if it's an amphibious vehicle
before it's an apocalypse vehicle.
You ready?
- Yeah, let's do it.
We gotta try this out.
- I'm nervous.
So far it's held together.
- [Jinger] Hopefully
it can keep its balance
on the side of this hill climb.
- [Carl] Some of it's going to come up
to my skill as a driver.
I could side hill climb
like crazy all day long.
These big wheels let it
go on the side hill, easy.
- [Jinger] Whoa!
- [Carl] I'm going to
have to go in the water,
just a little bit, to
get my running start.
It's going in the river!
- [Jinger] It totally is!
The large wheels keep the motor out
of the water, that's crazy!
(upbeat music)
(yelling)
Wow, we lost a wheel!
- We lost one of the saw blades,
but it made it up the hill
and through the river amphibiously.
I can't believe it did
that, that was awesome.
- [Jinger] Check it out, guys.
Luckily, the sand caught it.
- It looks like the cable
actually snapped under the tort.
The clamp didn't fail, the cable snapped.
So, we're going to have to
take this back to the shop,
put it under a couple of repairs,
and get it back to our apocalypse room
for some more testing.
See, look, even with it
short one of the saw blades,
it still totally functions
just fine, look at that.
No problem, it doesn't
really affect it that much.
We fixed the rear wheel.
We got the saw blade back in tact.
The reaper tires are ready to go.
And now we've set up an entire apocalypse
backyard obstacle course
to test run this thing,
to see if the Reaper X Maxx
can make it all the way to the end.
What do you guys think, guys?
- I think it looks really cool.
I can't wait to see how
it does on the court.
- What do you think about
the paint job and stuff?
- I mean, it looks really cool.
It actually looks a lot like our truck.
- It does, like our Ford Raptor, kind of.
What do you think, Luke?
- [Luke] I think it kinda looks like
it's out of a comic book.
- Yeah, it's got those comic
book striping lines and stuff.
It's really cool, all right.
So, we're all set up.
Now, we just got to test drive it.
- [Group] Ready, set, go!
(upbeat music)
- [Carl] Now we just gotta try and climb
all the way up over the ramp.
(yelling)
So we ran into one
problem with the agility.
It rolled off the side.
Maybe we can solve this with
a little bit more speed.
But, the truck survived.
- [Jinger] Nice!
- [Carl] We're good to go here.
- [Jinger] Okay, here we go.
Lining up for round two!
(scraping)
- Oh, that sounds awful.
Ew, I don't that at all.
Let's keep it off of the bricks.
It's time for our speed run.
I'm going to try and go twice as fast
and see if I can jump the finish line.
We ready?
- [Jinger] Yeah, let's do it.
- [Carl] Ready, set, go!
(rock music)
(yelling)
This time I think we find, Oh wait, wait.
No, no, no.
Everybody stay back.
(cheering)
- [Jinger] Okay!
- I think we're good, I don't
want to break the thing.
It's really cool.
We should totally just, like,
make sure that it's okay
and get it in good repair.
So we can do another video.
I think this was the best
success we've had so far.
It's the biggest RC car wit
14 inch diameter saw blades.
Let us know down in the comments
below what you guys think.
And you should check out the other videos
that you see on the screen.
If you like this one, make
sure to check those out.
And we'll see you in the next one.
- [Group] Bye!
Check out our video game channel, too,
the Minecraft one.
