The Losi Hammer Rey - Holy Smokes. What a beast. This rock racing U4 is a true tribute to racing legend Casey Currie! Billed as a 1/10th (more like 1/7ish) U4 2.2 rock racer this thing not only mimics so many of Currie’s truck he ran at the Hammers but the performance has Losi, once again, outdoing themselves. Based on similar platforms we saw with the Rock Rey and Baja Rey the Hammer Rey hammers it down with a Spektrum 3150kv brushless motor decked with a huge heatsink, a 130 amp Spektrum ESC, and a boatload of scale to make Casey and other fans of U4 very proud.
But to my surprise, and I had some serious doubts with the size of this rig, it performs. The thinner (side to side) chassis and tall and harder foamed tires made me worry this thing was gonna be rolling over endlessly like an unimproved Axial RYFT. Nope. Thing handles wonderfully.
Granted I do recommend a real sway bar and to add some brake to it this thing handles whatever terrain you throw at it marvelously. It’s ready to do everything you need your U4 to do but don’t take my word for it. I only took it out once and had my mind blown. Try one out for yourself. Love it!
Thanks for watching!
Since I’m on my way to an Iron Maiden concert I’ll say “Up the Irons!” and hope you enjoy the vid. Upgrades and more Hammer Rey coming for sure!

The only battery used for the test run was the Spektrum battery. After realizing the sensitivity in the AVC caused the car to track unpredictably but so significantly I decided hands down to work on adjusting my shocks and adding the real sway bar and adding brake before going up in the power on my lipos. The car was a beast on this battery though and very impressive. This is the Spektrum battery used - Amazon.com: Spektrum 11.1V 5000mAh 3S 50C Smart LiPo G2 Hard Case: IC5, SPMX53S50H5 : Toys & Games
NOTE - I AM NOT ENDORSED BY ANY MANUFACTURER! I CALL IT LIKE I SEE IT! If I were to receive something from a company you’d still get an honest
reaction. I love RC and hope to attract as many people to the hobby as I can. Wouldn’t be doing anyone any favors if I endorsed junk. (watch my Remoking Thunder or HPI King Crawler if ya want the proof!)
