Reminds me of the Xmods from RadioShack, way back when. My first introduction to the hobby 👍🏼
Xmods first generation was awesome so many modifications
Awww my dearest Xmods... Long live Rob and Atomic Mods and the many hundreds of dollars I gave him for ways to make my Xmod absolutely unbeatable.... ^_^
Do they make Xmods still?
@@LadyVisilena nah… they’ve been gone since around 08-09… maybe earlier. The Gen 2 Evo models may have hung around a little bit longer but not much.
iirc radio shack was where i first saw hexbugs
That Hexmod held it's own turf just fine...especially at that price point. Great little unit.
Reminds me of “zip-zaps” to a massive degree, I remember swapping out my cars motor n tires and adding lights to them as a kid back in the early 2000s 😄
Xmods, the zip zaps were cool too though.
These look awfully similar to the old radio shack x-mods and the various upgrades.
I literally saw them at Target today and said the same thing the chassis everything
I came here to say the same thing
I also came to say this. I had all of the Gen 1s and most of the Gen 2s. These hex mods are very similar to the Gen 2s. They were fun. I wonder if the atomic mods are still around?
Those were great. Had a very highly modded awd scion that no one could touch
I had the RSX I turned into a AWD with lights ,tires ,suspensions. I even swapped to a skyline body and shaved it down with the “drag motor in it. I just bought a miniz and was told the x mods were just “cheap radio shack garbage “ ….no. My x mod could definitely have ran laps around anything I saw at the club here so far. It is sad that they went away
Hexbug bought the molds of the last generation Xmod cars, which is why they are so shockingly similar to the Xmods. Seeing a lot of people in the comments talking about how close they are, because they actually are in fact Xmods.
The HexMods do have a steering rate adjustment just above the grip. It’s only three settings but it’s there.
Got a hex mod truck after Christmas sale for $25 for me and my bro. Love how many customizable parts are included. This is a perfect entry into rc i think, you can customize so much right out of the box and has good speed. The instructions also have pre made mods for drift, drag, race. I specially like that we can spend time together and he can learn the effects different parts have on performance.
Where?
It seems like I can put a mini z body on the hexmod. Have you attempted?
So the question I have is can the Hexmod take the tires from Kyosho? Same with the motor...? Could one of the cheap ones be loaded down with the expensive hop ups?
That's awesome! I like the options, those are definitely cool to run with the Mini Z and the Mini Q.
Seeing these just makes me wish they would bring the X-Mod line back. I ruined all of the ones I had a kid, I was too young to really understand what I was doing.
Seems to me like it would be a great entry level for a younger kid before jumping all in into the hobby grade cars 👏👍
Question I have is what gears and motor were you using on the Hexmod? Was it geared for top speed or acceleration?
Are the body’s interchangeable between the mini z and the hex mod?
No one ever answers the good questions
Hi, what are the front and rear tires u have installed onto this Kyosho RWD?
I have tons of xmods and a few mini z. If you want the same performance, control,and speed on par with the mini z install a losi micro t esc/radio into the xmods.
The red one can really be labeled as beginner hobby grade. Man i wish these were out when i was ten! We used to do all thos with radio shack cars!
Race one like you got seems around 100 bucks on ebay.
You can find a mini z rwd for 179.
I would like to share that a k989 is less that the good hex bug. Intresting to see low end hobby grade overlap with top tier toy grade.
I like toy grade repairs and motor swap.
Full electronics swaps are great with a front end rebuild.
It would be wrong to buy one of these to rip it apart when i can spend 100 on more mini z awd upgrades.
Fantastic video. Just what i needed.
The hexmods Vulture is like a purple Hoonitruck. RIP Ken Block. I might just suck at driving but those hexmod cars look like they handle better than the truck.
These are great gets your kids wrenching experience as a entry level drive around the house car before you go out and spend 300 to 1000 on the hobby and they decide they don't wanna do it.
I got the red one not to long ago for Christmas and it is pretty fast, I have drag races it against my traxxas slash and it is relatively quick, though the front steering gets pretty weird after few crashes and it causes it to sway. Still an amazing toy, I almost thought about 3d printing a custom body for them. Pretty awesome
If it’s swaying try tightening the wheels. If it doesn’t work, try removing the front wheel hubs, and put it back on. If that doesn’t work, deal with it. I’m no pro.
Good indoor racing mark they both look good
That is a lot of fun for half the price, and the speed of the Kyosho isn't DESTROYING the Hexmod. Question I can not find the answer to, Can you swap the Yellow and Red one's bodies, because the red one is marketed at about 30% faster.
You could do with the TRAXXAS drag light kit, I think it has been re-released as originally was for their 1/8th Funny cars, I wish they would re-release these, I would buy a couple.
Will the miniz body fit the hex mod?
Do you know approx scale?
Does it fit a Kyosho mini Z body
Hexmods... Reminds me of something else I still have in my closet.. A little 1965 Mustang from the Evolution Street Generation 😏😎
They released a new truck version and I'm actually going to go pick it up today, it looks pretty sick..
Those look fun as heck
Love them o got the hexmod truck I love it I haven't tried it outside but inside it runs beautifully
Are the parts compatible with the Mini Z to the hex mods
Hey Mark what is your favorite car to race?
Really good information
Bought me a hex bug actually enjoy it for around the house !
I've never understood the price tag of the mini Z's. They still outperform most other options, and the body shells are nice but this is 2022 and they still run AAA batteries? You can buy RTR 10th scale models that come with a lipo battery for the same money. From other videos, the hexmod only fails in terms of steering control but then it is half the cost. It's a shame the flexible track sections cause the car to get stuck.
Come on, put them on a proper track and let's see what happens! 🙂 Regardless, inexpensive way to give these mini cars a try 👍
I feel like the Hexmod is a great place for anyone to start "do I even like tiny RC cars?" and those of us who just beat around the house floors... what's the point of a $200 rig to race inside my house by myself with my cats? Feels a bit overkill.
All that fun...nice video with your son!!! 👍
Merry Christmas 💕
Honestly it's good for price not only that is looks like updated versions of the old xmods I wish I still got my xmods
I love the dogs!!!!!
I bought a Hex mod and loved it so much I bought another just to make 1 of them all wheel drive. I bought a RadioShack XMod thinking theyd be "made better back in the day" and it the tires were literally getting caught on the body as I turned. Going straight didn't do any better. The Hex Mod far outperformed its predecessor. I'm only keeping the xmod because it cost me a pretty penny and because I'm still determined to fully mod it just to maybe prove myself wrong.
Can u put a custome motor in this
Mark are you still racing the mini z? We need an update of ur collection of mini z
Yes
I used to have dozens of the radioshack xmods.
I just bought mine at Walmart instead of Amazon and saved $29 for the exact same product.
Update: Walmart order cancelled (out of stock), so bought at Target (still $10 less than Amazon w/ free shipping).
you can adjust the steering rate on the back of the controller
Have a good week
(In Movie Phone Guys Voice) Many have tried to dethrone the Mini Z,
XMods, ZipZaps…. NOW HEXMODS🤣🤣🤣🤣
Only Real OG’s and Tamiya Fanatics will remember the 1/24 scale Tamiya Tamtech cars (not the same as Tamtech Gear cars)
Great video
I just bought the hex bug with the track for the winter time so i can race
Funny thing, I put ground effects lights on all my best miniz bodies. I'm gonna do a mod video for LEDS on miniz bodies one of these days so others can copy my technique since I'm good at electronics. I LOVE my z and when I had better income I was spending an ungodly amount on parts. My z is probably worth 500 or more in parts alone. Wish I could still afford to splurge like that, being disabled sucks.
You guys have so many RCs in the house lol. Are you collecting them?
You can take diff gear from a hexmod car and put it in another hexmod car and make it 4x4
At looks fun
nice.
Hex’s mods are the customizable cheap beginner rc cars while expensive one ar made for more serious rc enthusiasts
Letsss go miniz
I have all the upgrades for the xmods
I’m still obsessed with mini-Z’s lol
How many Autoscales do you own?
@@brianbaldwin1217 only about 5 or so.
Most of my cars are function over form :D I just like going fast!
You'd better not get any MiniZ F1 cars then, you won't be able to stop
Good evening bro
u should bring it to the track
WL Toys k989. I can make it scream around an RCP track for less that $60.
I was thinking about. Buying a hex mod
Good video but OMG The person driving the red cat kept false starting!
My son would loose interest quick have me build it amd go play video games lol. I know it happened with the his sc6.
You should. Buy a mini z track brother
I may have to get some for my kid 😘 Great video as always!! 🤘🍩🏁🔥
I miss zipzaps 😭
Your boy drives that mini z better then you mark!
🔥💕👍
The reason it has no control is bc its on a hard wood floor so there is no grip
I have the red one
Love the Grave Digger and Son uva digger trucks
So this is what a child is for.
Those are perfect for rainy days when you can't play outside lol 😆
Stares in xmod by radioshack-

I NO LONGER BUY REMOTES WITH BUILT IN BATTERIES. EVENTUALLY THEY LEAK RUINING THE VEHICAL. I HAVE X MODS FROM THE FIRST GEN. ALL STILL WORK. MY ZIP ZAPS ARE ALL DEAD AND GONE
