Looks like a great little guy. I went with the 14mt for better parts support. It’s awesome. I wish there were a stiffer motor mount and metal spur gear but it’s pretty awesome.
The rtr stickers and lettering on that looks like its right off the arrma box!😂 I see your changing it up to more "story telling" videos. Have you seen @rccrazy pd racing build? He killed it!
It goes good! Luckily no one else travels with me, so if I want, a whole garage of off road 1/10 RCs can go with me, of and one Tamiya Supra Drifter. (can't believe Firefox didn't know the word "Tamiya"!!!)
Very fun! Perhaps the ESC from your SCY 1610X jeepy-bodied thing you tested would be a better fit. I believe people have successfully run those on 3s a bunch.
Pulled my old Tamiya out the loft the other day, Its a old Manta with a square body truck shell and its not well. lol, Its been collecting dust for ni on 30 years. Battery took a bit but nothings happening. Maybe the Futuba metal aerial radio gear i have needs new batteries too (after 30 years id say so.) Id say its time Adult me fixed teenage me's hilarious bodges.
You should try an eazyrc Colorado. Metal shafts ,oil shocks ,brushless out the box and available from your local hobby shop! And even my son hasn’t broken it yet!
I'm hoping to make a fun miniature version of my Big Rock out of one of these soon, I already have the motor and ESC I'd like to run in it.y but was curious what the proper mod/ pitch for its pinion is compatible w this lil guy? Thx in advance for another great clip on how to upgrade these a bit as usual Phil! Cheers.
I grabbed a hbx 16889a pro for 70 euro 3 lipo and charger inclided. Brushless, greased all around, pil shocks, it is so much fun and the price is absolutely fair for what its purpose is.
I bought Hyper Go after watching one of your wideo about it, the first time I took it outside to play it destroyed the rear differential sprocket..😅 POWERRRRR (in Clarkson voice) 😂
The nice thing is that companies here in the USA like likeHobbyzone, Helidirect, and AMain Hobbies started carrying cheap bashers like the MJX Hypergo, UDI, WLtoys, EaZRC Brands, and FMS. They plan on carrying more of the cheaper brands. That way we don't have to go through Bangood and all that. Helidirect is really expanding its inventory with cheap bashers and RC planes. I hope other companies start doing the same.
This is a great project and the little truck performed very well. I could see kids or adults taking a small basher and putting in their backpacks and bicycling to a skatepark or where ever to run them.
I've been looking for a new 1/16 to upgrade. I've got a sg1603 that's been eaten by my dog. It's brushless system is fine and quite good imo and has a gyro. I do want my dog to eat it again, just this time outside.
Thanks for addressing the issue with AliExpress, anymore it seems like only have of my stuff comes. This thing looks cool, backyard basher is what I’m looking for.
Im loocking to get into rc, im looking for something off road but faster than a crawler for under preferably £150 but i could probably streach to £200, any recommendations
Why not LC Racing EMB Truggy or buggy at this scale? It is incredible value for the money. It comes with oil shocks, brushless fast motor, hobbywing ESC and actually hits the claimed speed. It even has a metal chassis! Why all this plastic stuff?
Why didn’t you choose the Rlaarlo Omni Terminator for your travel basher bro? It’s the perfect truck after you do a couple of minor upgrades… it handles and jumps like an absolute dream. Get a new carbon fiber edition. Because that hasn’t been beat down😳. Anyway, get a new one, put the speed gearing in, replace the thin shock screws with nice standoffs of your choice of the screws will bend/break. Now set the gyro to 20% and you TRULY have the perfect travel basher🐒💭
i'm now annoyed that with tech being so far ahead, there is no reason to ever include brushed motor's anymore, especially in new product lines. In fact, any line that is 'refreshed' should also come with brushless now. Its one of my top 5 issues I have with this hobby. Its like a brand new car missing a hd clear rear camera with guide lines.
okey sure its cool, but if you have the money just get the Traxxas mini revo vxl that car is insane. and yes i know what you think of traxxas but still
I've found from experience that the Traxxas cars are pretty consistently 3 or 4 mph below the claim. So if it says 70+ it will do 66 on the speed gearing. It's honestly impressive how well you can rely on it 😂😂😂
This little rc's with IFS looks "meh" for me. Found it after having a couple of these little things and they just don't excite me) they run great but that's all...🥲
Hiya mate. I j7st wondered if you would do cheap comps. On some of you rcs. I'm so worried 9f gett8ng from banggood as well. But would love the mjx citron rally. Sounds bad but can afford to go in the comps but can't afford the mjx citron. Love the vids. Always. Sorry bout spelling fat fingers
✌🏻😎🏴You made it way more fun 👍🏻. I still can’t believe you actually got scammed Phill. Usually they do their best not to scam people with RUclips channels that are affiliated with them 😂. They usually just try to scam everyone else 😂.
Have a question for you: I found an abandoned RC car in the park next to my house here in Tokyo. There are a lot of kids around, I went through them all, none of them claimed it. But it's just the car car, no controller. After much Googleing I found it's Kyosho TF-5 from somewhere around 2006.... What do I need to make it run? Controller, obviously. How to "mate" it? Charger? Geez I know nothing of this! Or I send it to You.
I don't know if you or anyone have done this video yet, but could you do a comparison of the hbx 18859a, the 1/18 arrma and the traxxas 1/18. I've tried searching for such video and can not find it. Since I can't afford to buy all 3 I was hoping maybe you could. It doesn't have to specifically be those 3 I just feel they would be the most similar in size, style, and power.
Wow i reckon my Gorgon is faster than your 2s one am running 2400kv 3s 20t fly s and dont flip up full throttle and still has pull and can even take 4s lower kv are best for trucks tho need 2 fit biggest pinion unless running on max voltage.if you upgrading gorgon fit 20t pinion think that is the max an buy spectrum 4s 2400kv motor 4s esc an run 3 or 4s s best setup way better than high kv
Can you please do a video on some mini z size cars, specifically some that are under 200 pounds, I wanna get into racing them but I don’t know where to start

You know my fav part ... slow mo voice reactions .. really tickle me
Awesome little truck, Phil! You did a heck of a job there! 😃
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Awesome job! Thanks for sharing!
No probs 😇
The Mini rock.
The Pebble?
We have a big rock grom now I guess
😅
Looks like a great little guy. I went with the 14mt for better parts support. It’s awesome. I wish there were a stiffer motor mount and metal spur gear but it’s pretty awesome.
Thanks for getting me hooked on these small scale buggys! I'm not sure I'll be buying any more 1/10th stuff after this.
i love your onboard camera shots.
looks nice and proper quick on new set up
Yeah, it’s pretty quick now 👌
Nice little ripper!
🤟
nailed that one :)
Great video Phil! You need to make your own track. The outdoor audio sounds great. Is it new?
I only run 2s in my mini E-Revo vxl and it’s powerful enough 3s would be insane
Love them mini bashed vids
I love making them as well 🤟
Your right that looks just like a big rock grom
Yes haha
The rtr stickers and lettering on that looks like its right off the arrma box!😂 I see your changing it up to more "story telling" videos. Have you seen @rccrazy pd racing build? He killed it!
Those tiny cars are becoming pretty quick now
Yes
agreed. i bought a black RC car similar to this one a year or two ago but with a less lengthy frame and it goes roughly 42kmh stock.
Cos he modded it
It goes good! Luckily no one else travels with me, so if I want, a whole garage of off road 1/10 RCs can go with me, of and one Tamiya Supra Drifter.
(can't believe Firefox didn't know the word "Tamiya"!!!)
Haha

You should try an eazyrc Colorado. Metal shafts ,oil shocks ,brushless out the box and available from your local hobby shop! And even my son hasn’t broken it yet!
Yes, looks good
I believe It’s a mjx with the Colorado body.
Maybe so but it’s available from your local hobby shop with their backup!
@@leeh3485 yep. I’m not in the UK but mjx parts support is pretty decent.
Still like the tracer with a few choice upgrade. Parts freely available and cheap in the UK too.
Good choice for sure

It’s nice for the size.
"That's what she said..."
What size motor and how many kv. I have ftx truggy and think I’ve gone too high kv with brushless conversion
I picked up an Enoze 1:14 scale RTR brushless basher on Amazon here in the U.S for $53.11.
Bargain!
I bought Hyper Go after watching one of your wideo about it, the first time I took it outside to play it destroyed the rear differential sprocket..😅 POWERRRRR (in Clarkson voice) 😂
Oops!
I know you said you doing it on your own time, but I'm anxious about the cross rc monter truck video
Arrma pounding sand right now seeing this complete rip of the BR From, even down to the font on the box lol
I’m 99% sure it’s also from the same factory
@@TomleyRC it looks VERY similar
Hahaha! What a sick, funny build! 😄
That’s not bad, I might get one 😅
The nice thing is that companies here in the USA like likeHobbyzone, Helidirect, and AMain Hobbies started carrying cheap bashers like the MJX Hypergo, UDI, WLtoys, EaZRC Brands, and FMS.

Perfect. We are also seeing a few more of the cheaper brands become available over here as well
Small Rock 😁😁
What's your favourite mini basher !
Great vids mate !
This is a great project and the little truck performed very well. I could see kids or adults taking a small basher and putting in their backpacks and bicycling to a skatepark or where ever to run them.
Yes, perfect for all
@@TomleyRCAnd no need for a toolbox either.
Those are, so far, our favorite type. Small enough, but quick enough!
Bro I keep seeing that blue Supra in the background of your videos, when are you gonna show it to us?
You’re such a big kid.😂
just swap the power plugs on the Grom to Xt60s,
the bump in power is perfect, though it does shorten the life of the diffs.
Can you even shorten the diffs life anymore than it already is 😅
Nice for the skate park…
Looks like something else hmmmmmm I hope arma bring a mini big rock
🙃

Very cool 😎 but I loooove my little MJX my other MJXand my other MJX AND MY 30dnt and my Arrma well all my rc’s actually 😂😂😂😂 great video
MJX is a solid purchase 🤟
I’m kinda new to rc hobby how did you bind it to transmitter
A gyro would help that truck with that speed… mere mortals can’t steer an RC like that at higher speeds 😳
Why isnt it available on the mainland (Europe)? Or is it branded different?
Thanks for addressing the issue with AliExpress, anymore it seems like only have of my stuff comes. This thing looks cool, backyard basher is what I’m looking for.
Yes Phil. Great video. But wheres the 10x10?
In progress
Could you upgrade the granite grom? Would be interesting to see how much better you could make it.
Dude i want one Phill
Im loocking to get into rc, im looking for something off road but faster than a crawler for under preferably £150 but i could probably streach to £200, any recommendations
Why not LC Racing EMB Truggy or buggy at this scale? It is incredible value for the money. It comes with oil shocks, brushless fast motor, hobbywing ESC and actually hits the claimed speed. It even has a metal chassis!
Why all this plastic stuff?
11:48 to 11:49 not sure what it is but looks like a screw backing out at the end of the arm.
This is the mini bigrock arrma 3s 6s
How did ya get scammed on Ali? Just bought a hyper go from there…
What shop was it
Hello how can I improve my MJX Hyper go 16208 ?
It’s pretty good out the box. Depends what you want from it
From the moment I saw that supra on the background I stopped communicating with the world
Mjx mew4 with extras on banggood- is cheaper than a arrma grom rear diff 😬
Hey Phil u should review the losi baja Rey 2.0 please 🙏 ❤
Yes, had the SBR and it was awesome
@@TomleyRC yea but should do do the 1/10 Baja Rey 2.0
Oof the camera crash 😂
Yes haha… took out my external mic’s receiver 🤣
@TomleyRC the hit kind of made me flinch when it striked to the camera 😆
buy local and pay more?
Why didn’t you choose the Rlaarlo Omni Terminator for your travel basher bro? It’s the perfect truck after you do a couple of minor upgrades… it handles and jumps like an absolute dream.

My thoughts exactly 👍🏿
Because I’ve been waiting 2 months for parts to fix it 😅. Oh… and it doesn’t fit it my bag 😇
@@TomleyRC yeah, you got me there😳. Them little seaweed eaters sure do take their sweet-ass time, don’t they?
Wow they even copied the arrma box 😂
I've never heard anyone say "pet hates" before.
Must be a British thing
@@TomleyRC I was wondering but didn't want to assume 😅👍
i'm now annoyed that with tech being so far ahead, there is no reason to ever include brushed motor's anymore, especially in new product lines.
In fact, any line that is 'refreshed' should also come with brushless now. Its one of my top 5 issues I have with this hobby. Its like a brand new car missing a hd clear rear camera with guide lines.
The esc was a little long to fit in, I KNOW HOW IT FEELS!!!
whut?
🤫
Nooo! Throw a mamba micro in there! Do it proper sir
Haha
okey sure its cool, but if you have the money just get the Traxxas mini revo vxl that car is insane. and yes i know what you think of traxxas but still
Wow im early
😎🤟
I have to tell .Traxxas are not good . FMS is good real crawler driving feel have FMS crawlers . Best performance FMS have.😊
Traxxas is the best
Traxxas the fastest name in suing
Arrma Grom might as well call it gromit the body on it is crap I don't know what they were thinking not appealing at all arrma wrong video I know
The Typhon Grom looks much nicer
14 mins an only 330 views dam tomly you falling off😊
Looked okay my end 😇.
@TomleyRC hahah I'm kidding, bro. Greatest video, like always keep your head up. Pimp
Ummmmm, if that was a traxxas he would carry on for 45 minutes complaining about false top speed claims...
Well traxxas would've cost twice as much 🤣
100% I would have :)
Because it's traxxASS. Vile company.
I've found from experience that the Traxxas cars are pretty consistently 3 or 4 mph below the claim. So if it says 70+ it will do 66 on the speed gearing. It's honestly impressive how well you can rely on it 😂😂😂
@@doctajuice yes.. but remember, that's with optional gearing that they don't sell 😅
This little rc's with IFS looks "meh" for me. Found it after having a couple of these little things and they just don't excite me) they run great but that's all...🥲
That's a great chassis, many Beans were given, nearly a full amount one might say
What are talking about! Beans?😂 It's a cheapo
Hey Phil, You should do a review on the Losi 22s SCT. I'm thinking of purchasing one but there are not many good review channels on it.
Because you can get a much better sct for less or the same amount of money. The 22s SCT is a flop.
@@FarmerFpv What would you recommend?
@@appleslices4991the senton or Mojave

Looking forward to see the video of those new mjx
The 10208 and h8h
Well I retired from racing.. I guess I'm a basher now😅😅😅
What would you say the best 1/10 crawler for under 200£
The rc hobby is so stupid. There are too many worthless rc channels on youtube all do doing the same BS
Don’t watch them then Anthony. You are free to click on whatever you want 😅.
Thanks for watching 👍
Put a castle motor in it
✌🏻😎🏴You made it way more fun 👍🏻. I still can’t believe you actually got scammed Phill. Usually they do their best not to scam people with RUclips channels that are affiliated with them 😂. They usually just try to scam everyone else 😂.
Funny 30 mph, that's the out of the box speed of the wltoys 144001. It's more n fast enough for me.
Yeah, we all like speed… but no point in it if you can’t control it 😅
@@TomleyRC I gave my 144001 to a buddy who never did R/C before...WHOA nellie, ok, let me turn the throttle down hahaha

what do you guys use to stick your gps and cams to the cars yuou guys pull and pull this magic glue but no one says what it is lol
nvm finally after years saw it at the end it the blu tac thingy you mentioned
It’s called Black Tack 👍
We call that butyl tape, it's used for windows that bolt in vehicles instead of urethane.
Hey Phil, did you mean for the screw gun to sound musical with the music in your video🤔😁
Wonder if the front metal cvd’s will fit in the rear cause bl those rear plastic drive shafts prob not last to to long lol
Can you please tell me where you got that thin screwdriver bit that you had in the drill?
Not first
You are first 🏆
