This video was one of the reasons I got this buggy as my first 1/8 buggy. I have since moved on to Racing 1/8 high end kits, Serpent is what I run, and love them, but this is what got me started! Thanks!! still watch from time to time, and love the 4 stoke model engines videos. Keep the good times rolling!
Another great unboxing Steve, the buggy looks like the same platform like a buggy I own the brand is TOP1RC. I've owned it for 3 years and have had no issues so I'm looking forward to watching your running video now.
Hey Steve any chance you still have this buggy? I was wondering if you knew if this and the maximus had the same screw holes for the front bumper? I'm looking to get the tbone racing front bumper that is for this truck and supposedly it will fit the maximus. Didn't know if you still had both and could see if they are similar setups screw hole wise. Thanks bud.
love yr reviews,no biased jus straight honest reviews. ..i hav the dhk wolf bl and the megatron(late 2016 version) i went in to buy the optimus but none in stock so walked out with the megatron😂....so want the zombie8e tho😍
Awesome buggy Steve. I just started doing a little racing so I'll wait to see how this runs for you. Do you have any idea why all banggoods Rc's like doubled in price?
Well it seems like they upped the price of everything but the T6 shot way up I'm glad I got it when I did it's over $600 now lol I got mine for $375 with the 20% off they had going on a short time ago. I see your super close to 10,000 subs man that's huge congrats big time, you have a great channel with new Rc's rolling in all the time and you will only grow bigger with time. Looking forward to a run video of this buggy and all your upcoming videos. Thanks for all you hard work Steve
I want to get this buggy, change the body mounting on it and turn it into a truck. With all that suspension adjustability and the 17mm hex mount wheels, I think it would make for a great truck, given I find the right body. Does anyone know if HPI Mag-8 Wheel 83x56mm HPI3186 would fit this? I know they're 17mm hex mount, but will the width be good? Specs: Width: 2.2" (56mm) Diameter: 3.42" (87mm) Hex size: 17mm
I found the 8383 for more than $100 cheaper, and it's basically the exact same thing. Do you know of any differences between the two aside from the color? www.monkeyhobby.com/dhk-8383-optimus-1-8-brushless-rc-buggy-4wd-rtr/

+KillerOffRoadHobbyz yeah absolutely it looks good so far. Nah no idea why they inflated prices. What particular car?
Well it seems like they upped the price of everything but the T6 shot way up I'm glad I got it when I did it's over $600 now lol I got mine for $375 with the 20% off they had going on a short time ago.

Specs:
Width: 2.2" (56mm)
Diameter: 3.42" (87mm)
Hex size: 17mm
If not, I'm looking at these as well:
Axial Oversize Bead Lock 8 Hole Black Wheel (2) AXIAX8014
Outer Diameter: 102.21mm (4.024")
Width: 82.14mm (3.234")
Offset: 20.21mm (0.795")
Hex Adapter: 17.00mm (0.669")
run with one single 11.1v bat?
+Micael Paulo nope, you need 4s. 3s might be too slow
Where did you buy it i want one please tell

That is the ugliest buggy I have ever seen 😂
+Aaron Hartin haha yeah it's not the prettiest body but that can easily be fixed
Aaron Hartin You ain't lying. Lol That's a terrible body for sure.
The chassis is nice, but the shell is trash.
