Fabb 👌
Hi Phil, are you planning to make a review/unboxing of the new Rlaarlo Omni-Terminator? ;-)
I love to see you still reviewing cheaper RCs, even though your channel has gotten so much bigger. It's what sets you apart from the "other" rc channels. Cheers from an insomniac from WV.
The video is something for less than a single servo cost me on the last video lol
HBX is good platform in this price range. I do not have a problem with it for HPI. I like the center mounted motor ( left to right). It may raise center of gravity but not a crawler so.
The biggest problem with HPI now is that their latest Maverick and Blackzon stuff are now better than their own HPI stuff 😂
wow a company actually using coiled wires for lights, It's like we are finally in the 21st century!
Yes, major upgrade in my opinion. Makes running much less problematic when removing body for inspection and battery swap.
Tomley! I have the same car, HBX 903A. Sick! If you run a different wheel/tire combo, she jumps way better. Also, the darn lights fall out too. But, i have emersed my entire car, and can, spray off all the electronics in water with zero issues. All metal 2 diff set with pinion and drive gears, less than 25$ online. Cheap and fun. 3s capable, but does not like full trigger. Thanks from USA.
They basically did the right thing to this one to make it better by fitting a bigger esc to it, I did the same with my pickup truck version of that platform (same as 903a but with really small arms) when I found out it would cut out on full power with a 3s. I feel like I was there before hpi Lol 🤓😋 It's worth it!
You and Kevin are why I got into RCs
That's a cool little truck. I was surprised too when it hit 40. Pretty quick for a truck with the aerodynamics as a brick. Gonna have to add it to the list. I really love and appreciate your videos. It makes it so much easier to choose a car. Thanks for keeping it real. Can't wait to see that 10 wheel drive truck when it's finished.
Thanks mate. Hoping the 10x10 will be driving soon
It reminds me of my vatos brushless 1/16. I like it. I've learnt with body pins to have them pointing inwards, insert the front from the front and the rear from the rear and they won't go missing as often, they get wedged on rather than go missing
The only problem I have with Tomley videos is I keep seeing inexpensive RC cars and trucks I want to buy and I have no more space to STORE cars... Curse you, Kevin Tomley!! Now I need a bigger shop space!!
The World Kevin is banned in my Comments 😅
Not a bad little basher, you only landed about 1 jump and it survived all of it. Also just my opinion I prefer the bundles on Raffall comps, even tho I haven’t won anything yet. Good stuff sir 👍🏻
It appears to be a great smaller scale basher. Being able to put everything in a backpack and go to your favorite spot is a big advantage. I think it's a good idea for HPI to get into this market. It looked like a lot of fun. In the U.S. it's listed for about $170. This is a good choice to review.
Yes. Perfect for a space saving Basher 👌
Coiled wire to the body! 🤯
Why hasn't anyone done this before?!?!?! 🤦♂️
It's a hbx 901/ 903 chassis with a Flyhall fc610 (is Brushed) / hbx 2669a body. Those cars have a center diff and are easier to work on. The main con of all these cars is the really small battery tray. But you can make your own 18650 battery (2s2p) and it will have massive runtime.
I recently grabbed a blackzon too. I Grabbed the 1/16 scale Slyder turbo in baby blue. I’ve never usually been one to take chances on the off brand cars. But when I saw the turbo slyder it just looked so cool. No regrets so far it’s a fun, fast little car. Great video, Phil.
concerning lights, i opted for a body mount on the exact spot of the "real" headlights. made a small hole and glued with hotglue from inside. Also added rear red lights and now i have a basher with same scale looks. Also, on my 1/16 that i use for garage fightz with my little daughter, the lights on the stock bumper position bend and break really easily. This my idea of shell mount is bullet proof so far
Lot of functions in the transmiter like in the Mavericks, I like this ... and if it is from HPI and you can buy in a Shop, you can get spares easy and probably cheap. Good idea. I´m looking for a RC cheap and fast and this could be instead of the Wltoys 14010
The turbo version is actually 169.99 here in the states so 40 more than Grom. The regular 2s version is 114.99. great little truck tho can't wait to get mine!👍
The HBX radio system is frustrating when you try using the speed setting. Forward/reverse is adjusted disproportionately. When you turn it all the way down, it's slow forward but still quite quick in reverse. May be worth showing reverse as well when you demonstrate the speed adjustment.
The problem with HPI Racing is that they last forever
Except for that ONE vital part that always breaks
Fixing it becomes a hassle so the cars are just left in a pile for years
My pile cost me 25.000$ and I could not care less
much appreciated video! nice to see a real durability test, thats one of the most importat thing for me since i buy for my son and he manage to break every rc he gets
It took some abuse!! Totally agree about the grass landings-once it digs in, all you can do is squint your eyes, grin real hard ( we all make that face ) and pray the damage is minimal!😂 Great video‼️👍👍🦾🦾🤘🤘
Yes haha.. I’ve broken more things on Grass than concrete
Absolutely. Broke the chassis on my rival mt10 when the wheelie bar dug in after a jump and stopped the car dead😂.
@@davemorris6747Bloody Hell, Kevin Talbot, Stempy and Max had a real job trying to break a MT10 , they're practically indestructible and you broke one on grass 😅😅
Thanks for the video! What would be the best budget ESC upgrade you would recommend for this car?
Got my kid the HBX version which appears to be more or less identical aside from the body, the good news in that is that we now have Blackzon/HPI supplying parts as well!
I have a Hyper Go H16BM and I don't use the 3S battery because it's a bit too squirrely for me. I just installed an 18pc aluminum kit from AliExpress and maybe now that it's heavier I can control it better on 3S.
Excellent video as ever.
Great if the gears are really better as my hbx 901a (on which this is based) strips the main driveshaft rear pinion, (where it meets the rear diff) very easily.
Be even better if blackzon were to license the new, three-diffed hbx2997a which still isn’t available anywhere outside the USA
Impressed on the 3s that's quick for a small car.
I personally am a 1/10 scale guy. I remember when these smaller sizes were odd. It's nice to see that there is cheap and high quality smaller vehicles coming out. Definitely have changed my opinion on scale. These are cheap enough for the whole family to have one. Great video! Thumbs up from Kentucky in the USA!
Yes, these are great for all the family
I only just dfound your channel a couple of days ago. I've been ill with this bloody flu going about so I've been on my couch watching everyone of your vieos...
In one of your early videos you picked up a box of TT-01 parts off ebay...
I'm pretty sure they were mine.
They looked like mine. A few years ago I wondered if I could take a bog standard car and get it to go over 100MPH with readily available upgrades. By the time I'd finished with the TT-01 there was very little of it that was standard so I sold all the parts on ebay along with various parts from my sons RC cars and his TT-01... What you made out of the box of parts has a striking resemblance to what my son's looked like. Including the pink and blue alloy upgrades and even the coloured suspension springs and stuff. There was a lot of other parts in your box I didn't recognise. I'm wondering if when I sold it the buyer took what was needed and then passed on the rest with some of his old stuff. But that TT-01 chassis that you made was defo mine/my sons. A shame you didn't get the body shell as it was a GT40 in 2-tone pearl paint. It changed from red to blue in different light and looked amazing.
Nice vid! Hey for future reference, a good trick for bending a threaded part back straight is to thread a nut onto it and beat on the nut. We do that with inch and a half threaded anchor bolts and a sledge hammer on steel building foundations.
Rubber Mallet 👌
Good review , nice truck . Glad to see shops carry these . Hope they have the parts for them too . I always recommend people try to shop local for RCs.
In the past , I got some good deals and vehicles from Bang G...But those days are long gone here in Canada , The budget prices no longer exist and they sometimes want more for shipping than the product costs now . Dealing with them over a quality issue is very painful experience as well .
there is a smaller version of this in hobbie shops here. Probably the size of the grom or however you spell it. It's called the slyder. got one for my son. Fun little basher.
What a great bit of kit, certainly sets a good benchmark for the mini basher market
I like the idea of seperate prizes to multiple people instead of one person the receiving everything. Gives more people that are on a tight budget to get a RC and let them have some fun
I'm impressed. And bonus points for the lead for the lights.
Would I get one? Yes. I just don't have any room.
My only issue with smaller scale bashers is how difficult it is to actually land jumps. They just don't have enough suspension travel to keep from bouncing. My 8s exb Outcast can land and settle from all kinds of wonky positions. The long shocks and huge tires along with 30 plus pounds don't bounce. Even tenth scale doesn't land as smooth. Granted, the smaller stuff is less violent when it gets it wrong.
Yes much better idea to have 5 winners rather than winner takes all. Alot more chance for us ❤❤❤
Awesome review, i was thinking about getting this for my daughter. 2S on low speed will be perfect to get her into the hobby.
Thats a solid truck mate especially for someone new or young. Performance against price is pretty damn good. Nice review Phil.
That’s a cool rapid little thing plus the cable for the lights is very handy. Don’t have to b so delicate taking the body off.
Yes… although it did break haha
@@TomleyRC damn. 😵💫
@TomleyRC I have the exact same car that identifies as a Bezgar hm124. Exact chassis and everything. (Except I don’t think it runs on 3s I’ve never tried.) sweet little 1/12 basher loads of fun!!!
Hi Phil, looks a decent truck for the money. It seems like your paying for the Arama name with the grom. I think your right about the 2s being better for it. Looked a handful on 3s. Great review as always. 😊
I gave one of those to my grandson for Christmas and he loves the hell out of it
It is fast enough for him and that's all that matters
You're testing these cars like a hooligan. This is great because I want to see what's the worst that could happen before I buy one. Cheers.
Wow!! That's a little ripper!! 👍🏻
Good review, nice little truck, tough!
Thanks for this review!
As a complete noob, I don’t understand what you mean when you talk about 2S and 3S 🙈
Hi Phil, great video thanks. This car looks like it might suit my next project, to build a Tamiya Hotshot that can survive jumps! If you could share the approx wheelbase and track that would be really helpful. Cheers! 😀
Still the best,quick question if okay I have the mjx hyper thing is it’s brushed could you please advise me on a brushless motor upgrade please,and anything else I need thanks also how do I join yr giveaways as well,
Not a bad little truck.👍
I have the Hbx version of this truck an it's a great lil basher really well balanced with the motor where it's placed an positioned 😎
Bro putts in so much effort he deserves a sub
Cheers dude
i have the 1 / 14 BlackZon Slyder and its a funny little Machine. All i will change is the Suspensions because its to bumpee with the Stock ones....
Muy buenos dias Mr Tomley este pequeñin es muy rapido y nos es muy costoso , muchas gracias por compartir , feliz dia
Were those shocks adjustable on the lower arms?
@TomleyRC
I live in the US and have been wanting to jump into your raffles, but I can't figure anywhere about if I'm eligible? Do I just add my US card and it automatically converts to pounds?
Apparently, YT thinks I need a break from my usual videos. I did watch the whole thing, pretty interesting.
Another good review but I was hoping for more super apocalypse truck with the heavy artillery. That thing is insane. I've been thinking about it being done for the last couple of days. God if that was real, using a diesel train engine as the body and power plant. I was thinking about something so big rocking from firing the artillery at incoming hoards of zombies!😅😂 too cool.
Haha.. getting back to work on that tomorrow, hoping to get a video out Friday
It is a real thing apart from full size is actually a 12x12 for when 10x10 just won't cut it. A 150.6-liter diesel V12 gave it the go.a few bits on the net about it cant post a link but 12x12 landtrain should find it.Didn't have thast gun though.😁
Looks like a pretty decent little truck. Took a proper bashing.
Cheers mate
Yes, was fun
So is this built by HBX for HPI or vice versa? I get so confused by all the clones. Are parts interchangeable so you can order from the cheapest provider?
How does it compare with the hyper go´s? I mean, hyper go 14xxx for instance, seems more durable and it is still half of the money....
Novice rc owner here. I’ve just purchased this truck. Looking to get a spare battery but unsure what I need to get. Can anyone recommend a spare battery that will fit? Do O need to go for the blackzon one or do most lipos fit? Thanks
Inreslly wish they make more 1/12 s ale card and trucks....inreslly like this one
For curiosity open the rear drive and look at the bevel gear its very soft and on 3 s gets eaten in a few pack, this is why im starting to move away from HBX
This says it has ‘HD’ gears… the others listed don’t
Question is- can I upgrade my base smyter using parts from the smyter turbo?
Love to see how the Traxxas Rally VXL compares to the HPI WR8 and Cen Puma. Maybe a new Rally shootout.
No prediction yet on when the VXL will be on stock 😫
@TomleyRC Traxxas loves you so they will send you 1 I'm sure of it.
Haha
This rc looks good!
Looks like a haiboxing or HBX model ☝🏼🧐
Awesome info, thanks for sharing!
Welcome 👌
how many brands just rebuilding the HBX901a
Great lil truck there
Superb little truck that
What do u rekon mate this or the hpi mavrick 2flux ??
❤cool car ❤
That handles smooth!
I can’t find anything formation saying what size motor it has in it. Does anyone know.
I never noticed how thick your accent was when you say HPI until this video it sounds like hache P I … but still a great video. Can’t wait for the next one.😂✌️
Kinda late to the party but i prefer the bundles. Usually i can and will buy 1 car that i want. The bundles offer a chance at cars i might want but are way down on my list to buy and may never get around to.
What battery did you put in it?
I wish manufacturer's would make the body wheel base match the actual wheel base.
Great price,love it…
Has it got a centre diff
Where did u get the 3s lipo from
OOOOO!! they have Blackzon at my hobby shop here in Canada. Might have to check them out, I like small bashers.
Where do u get the 3s lipo from
What 3s battery are you using?
This is a great basher. Especially considering it comes from a quality manufacturer and at such a good price. I have to say, I watch your videos from northwest Montana, in the States, and I really enjoy your channel.
Can you also review Arrma stuff?
The statement about grass v concrete will have feather flying 😂 I agree abit of slip and slide over the grip of grass can save the day 👍
Haha
Pretty nice looking truck, Phil! 😃
Awesome bashing and review!
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Yeah, really good 👌
Hbx 2996a is the same but only can 2s drive
Pretty cool little ripper! I still have my eye on that Jumpshot Flux. HPI is really impressive for the money and I didn't know about the 3 tier thing you explained. Nice quick fix on that axle too Thanks bro!
O yes i will be locking at the blakzon hpi as my neck rc nice vid as well
This looks a good bit of kit and took some abuse
How long does the battery last
For the same price,this or the Mjx 14210?
This seems lighter but faster than the 2995A?
What local hobby shops i assume you mean online as none hardly in essex
Nice Rc Car ❤
I have the HBX version of that. It's a beast. Another great review.
Cheers dude
Nice truck. Hopefully 3s was not the cut off issue you had, if it says 3s it should take it.
Yes, although the grass was quite long and wet
Hey ! Can I know the name of your gps tracker for the speed ? Great video btw and thanks in advance !
