I've had mine a month and been pounding it on nothing but 3s lipo n who ever said there weak obviously made a point to break it because I've had no issues. Awesome little truck for decent price. Win, win!
I feel like this video reflects how I imagine the majority has to run their RC's, carefully, and realistically not trying to break things. I know I can't afford to thrash all my rigs all the time. Thanks!
The whole "break sh*t for views" mentality of the interwebs really gets under my skin. Unfortunately, there are enough people willing to spend their time watching absolute carnage and idiocy in the name of payouts that it will never evaporate. I much prefer this channel to the shenanigans on "that other brit's" channel ;). I take care of my stuff - as I'm sure most people watching this channel do.
Broke mine today! There's a beach path/trail down at Bexhill, near Ravenside retail park. The flattened part near the bottom of the little "cliff"there is more than wide enough for full size vehicles, but the beach is stony. Coming towards me, but 50 yards away, the MT10 went into a wheelie and just at that second there was a stone on the trail that I hadn't noticed. Quite a big stone, but even so, my back wheel hit it and the truck flipped a few times, with the wheel separating. The M4 thread part of the axle had broken clean off! Ironiclly I was testing out some cheap wheels/tires that I had taped on the inside to eliminate the ballooning. That part worked out well.
Amazing truck, I broke stock arms, I soaked replacements in wd40 for 3 days to soften them up - it takes that same jump which broke the originals without any issues. Your videos are great, have been waiting for this one for a while 😁
Great bashing, nice driving and most importantly, the strongest/best/most expensive rc car in the world will break if you land it wrong..... As you rightfully say, a break on a bad landing is on you, not the truck. A bad basher is one that breaks when its only been landed well (ie on all 4 wheels). Thank you for your common sense approach to things and the honest way you review.
Cheers mate. Anyone can hit a ramp as fast as possible and let it smash in to the concrete... I'm more in to learning how to get the best from them. Common sense unfortunately isn't that common lol
Because of your support AND because i bought this truck just after I saw this vid, we are taking this rig to a track to see wat it can do - yes we know its a MT b4 u lot kick off 😅 but it this 3s rig is just amazing , even now (dec 21) !!!! We have a track vid incomin to see what its REALLY MADE OF - with a few UPGRADES😅 ( watch us do 6s rigs - Massive love out to Tomley for this one .....SERIOUS XMAS PRESSIE !!!!! This is the best 3s MT in our opinion !!!!!!
The couple vids I've seen of them breaking were really nasty hits. Some were trying to break it. I know Kevin Talbot broke his, fixed it and tried hard to break it again. This looks like one of the toughest trucks I've seen.
Have one since December and been trashing it hard on 3S since then, had no issues with the A arms , most have because of cold temperatures. It is a BEAST and can make a MAXX cry. The weakest part is the body its a bit to thin lexan shell but there are spares and alternatives. If you have issue with A-Arms go get RPM upgrade arms.
Killer truck ,especially for the price 👍💯 aside from a few breaks here in there ( driver error ) I would buy another. " Beast" & a nice addition to the collection 👌👏Cheers 🍻
Ordered one, and 2 3s 4000mah lipos. Wheelspin models £334.18 including shipping. Heh, I don't do that sort of driving, much, so it should last months before I break something.
Outside the wire... Still got the lingo 😂 Looks like a tough RC, definitely worth a look considering it's half the price of my Maxx, and takes the same abuse. Possible Future purchase 👍
I had to order a new motor and esc for my helion. I ordered a surpass platinum 3660 and the 60amp. Its supposed to be 4300kv but they bench test a little lower ive read. I know i know dont run it on 3 s right? Was this a bad choice? Itll b a while before its in. So what should i get if/when I smoke this set up? This is a basher truck I expect broken parts so my feelings arent hurt. After decades of dirt bikes working on a toy rc is like therapy i enjoy it. Love your videos btw thanx for the entertainment and knowledge. Oh And the RPM arms are serving well 👍 i love this truck.
Love it bud. Going to order 1 today with a set of rpm arms just in case haha I hope they have sorted the arms out as that was what was putting me off but I found a set of rpms so I am back in again lol does this take normal size lipos that go in senton granite brcc etc or do they need to be smaller?
I've got one of these waiting for me under the Christmas tree based on your last 2 reviews, I'm so ridiculously excited and I am most definitely not 4.5! Thanks for the heads up. Please no more WPL vids, gonna have to start buying them too!!! Great channel.
Wooow! Great truck!! Really big drops, jumps, crashes to test it!! Seriously I'd like order one, I'm going to write my letter to Santa (and paypal). Great vid Bro, great truck and test.
Great video (as always) and Amazing car. Was about to purchase one, for the ""same purpose"" but, meanwhile, a very Good Friend from UK, gave me an 1/8 Basher so...🤷♂️ Maybe i would still ho for it😁 Thank You Sir for one more Great Durability Test video👌🙂
While 100 more might not sound like much this truck is currently 300 US. That is 1/3 more in cost. I looked at this truck hard but for some reason the arrma big rock v3 spoke to me more.
@@brutallyaverage8293 Depends.. Some places its only $50 more where the MT is 350. Also the Kaiju is a little bigger and closer to 1/8 or 1/9 scale and is 6S capable, so yeah its about 30% more for more Truck. I wasn't saying it is direct competitor, I was more like - "If you like that, you will LOVE this. The next step up or alternatives jumps several hundred dollars for a Maxx level truck, so to me the Kaiju is the absolute best bang for the buck sweet spot if you are going to be putting down over $250 anyways. $400 is a bargain for what you get.
Hell yeah it is! Its a team associated!! Traxxas amd arrma killer. They are going to have to step up the game with associated entering the basher game. Traxxas couldn't hang with them in racing and they won't be able too soon with the basher side.
Hi mate yes they great cars for the money mine just come today and before I go bashing I'm charging the handset and receiver plus doing all my diffs that's in pointed I think if not you break the gears up bud
Nice vid. I like this little truck. The MT10 comes with a Deans plug on the ESC right? Have you found this ok on 3S or have you soldered on another type?
@@TomleyRC no doubt. Could be different plastics etc. I'm sure as well. But every single part will bolt on and Helion parts are a half the price of the AE parts. A complete diff for example is around £40 for the AE, or £17 for the Helion...
How are u finding this car still. I have the Ftx carnage for my boy and seems to break every time we go out. So looking at this or something like the Traxxas rustler.
The color just pops, I admit I cringe at taking cars to the skate park, that MT10 is very impressive, I still think its better than arrma's, which I take alot of heat for, but team associated all day long over arrma, [my opinion] it's more "nimble" nice driving brother! 😎
Good day to you sir from one English man to another what would sudjest one of these orrrr any of the arrma 3s range? Not sure what to get mate need some help deciding.
Hi, I'm looking a RC for my 4y old son. Looked some this chinese cars and I can't decide. I wanna an off road 4wd, fast (more than 30km/h), brushless if possible and under $120. Do you have any recomendations? Oh and bigger is better !!! ;D
I would say original Slash 4X4, not the brushless one, just the brushed one, and he should be good to go, trust me the Slashes are literally built like Tanks, very durable!?
Great vid as always and nice MT! did you ever try Team Corally? The 1/8th scale 6s truggy Kronos V1 is on sale atm it looks really tough. I just bought myself one, can't wait to test it this weekend.

Its nice to see you put 1 to the extreme. I want a basher was thinking granite but now I'm tempted by this
Cheers mate. The Granite is a really nice truck, I just think this has a little more to offer. (Centre Diff & Sway bars for a start)
Thanks its always good to hear other ideas and opinions
My first rc car was a team associated tc4. And I still drive it. I also have a 18b, looks like I'm going to add this one to my list.
You will not be disappointed!
Man that thing is impressive. Way more durable than my overpriced Proline MT Pro 4x4...
It’s crazy for the money!
Still think you're better off with a Typhon 3s or Granite
What an awesome truck!! Looks great, and it's so durable compared to the more expensive ones. Great video. 👍🏻
Yes, it’s a beast
Killer truck ,especially for the price 👍💯 aside from a few breaks here in there ( driver error ) I would buy another. " Beast" & a nice addition to the collection 👌👏Cheers 🍻
Yes, it’s awesome!
Your video has made me realize that most other RUclips RC 'reviewers' . . . don't know how to drive. Well Done!!
Haha, cheers dude 😎👌
Team Associated just know what they're doing. This truck is awesome. My next RC is this.
This is Helion avenger mt TA just put new body on it
Ordered one, and 2 3s 4000mah lipos. Wheelspin models £334.18 including shipping. Heh, I don't do that sort of driving, much, so it should last months before I break something.
I've just bought one for my 4.5yr old lad for Christmas. He's gonna be made up.. 😎 good vid..
Wow! Lucky 4.5yr old!
Thanks bud. He's got loads of rc already. Loves his tamiya lunchbox and my gs02 bom crawler so much in had to get him one aswell 😂
Love mine,
In the new year I want to convert it to 4s!
4s! That'll fly!
Get u a mamba x combo and u can run 6s on it lol flat out destroy the Traxxas hoss lol
What a great truck, I want one. Thank you Tommy’s RC!
Sorry Tomley RC, it’s this automatic text thing it does!
No worries dude lol
Outside the wire... Still got the lingo 😂 Looks like a tough RC, definitely worth a look considering it's half the price of my Maxx, and takes the same abuse. Possible Future purchase 👍
I noticed when I watched it back what I'd said haha, probably a few people slightly confused by it 😅... it's an awesome truck!
@@TomleyRC if you know, you've been there 👊
I am very pleased that you made this review. I will buy this truck!

The most underrated basher truck of 2020? I think so. Looks good tomley that was a good representation of how he average person would abuse it haha
Yes agree... it’s awesome
I was set on a granite, but you've sold this to me.
I've got one of these waiting for me under the Christmas tree based on your last 2 reviews, I'm so ridiculously excited and I am most definitely not 4.5! Thanks for the heads up. Please no more WPL vids, gonna have to start buying them too!!! Great channel.

That is one awesome truck am going to have treat myself to one after Christmas
Looks like my next rc..to give my team associate rat rod a break..great company...
Love mine it's awesome looked at loads before I got it great review it really does take a beating 👍
Looks great but you do realise that lady with her son is going to have to re-think what Santa brings for him this year :-)
haha, he was enjoying the show!
@@TomleyRC You have asked for a sub :-)
Great video (as always) and Amazing car. Was about to purchase one, for the ""same purpose"" but, meanwhile, a very Good Friend from UK, gave me an 1/8 Basher so...🤷♂️
Maybe i would still ho for it😁
Thank You Sir for one more Great Durability Test video👌🙂
It's an awesome basher!
When you say it's a beating I gota watch and was not disappointed
Cheers Ryan :)
Fantastic bashing, dude! 😃
Pretty fun truck! And really strong!
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Yes, nice and tough, drives so well!
It's so good I bought two! Only problem is if you break a driveshaft you can't get hold of them for toffee.
Ecx mt shafts fit bud
Plus the exc ones are well cheap too. 😁
@@ashleyhawkins4113 Cheers pal!
I like the look of the chassis and it’s stance but I don’t like the shell. Is there anything else that fits this? Thanks for sharing.
Redcat Kaiju for about $100 more gets you 6S potential and very very similar characteristics to the MT10.
Yes, they look good
While 100 more might not sound like much this truck is currently 300 US. That is 1/3 more in cost.

Awesome RC and great vid as usual. :)
Yeah, he was enjoying it lol
@@TomleyRC Hopefully he wants to buy an RC now! :)
Robust little basher! Got one myself, love it except for the servo-saver, which sometimes leaves the steering feeling unresponsive, any tips?
Replace it
Brilliant video! We may be getting an MT10 instead of an X-MAXX! We love this channel!!!
I love team associated, my first rc was an rc10t3, ive had it 20 years, i wanted this, i wish theyd make another 1/8 basher or even a 1/5
They build some nice stuff!
They have the MT8 available for preorder right now! 😁 I’m about to place my preorder.
@@Critical-Defense yeah, finally they make one to fill the void
Hell yeah it is! Its a team associated!! Traxxas amd arrma killer. They are going to have to step up the game with associated entering the basher game. Traxxas couldn't hang with them in racing and they won't be able too soon with the basher side.
arrma killer haha
@@TheRaptor700Rider lol destroying that granite lol. I like your name. Yamaha is like associated the only way to go 👍👍👍👍
That mesh sounds tight !
Either that or i'm running mine a touch too lose. Mine doesn't squeal any where near as loud as that.
Still debating on a 1/10 truck. Would you recommend this or then quantum+ flux both seem like very capable cars
This over the Quantum (from what I’ve seen of it)
@daniel scott i ended up buying a zd racing 9021 truggy
Mines otw can't wait to bash with my son!!
So much fun
Hi mate yes they great cars for the money mine just come today and before I go bashing I'm charging the handset and receiver plus doing all my diffs that's in pointed I think if not you break the gears up bud
Nice vid. I like this little truck. The MT10 comes with a Deans plug on the ESC right? Have you found this ok on 3S or have you soldered on another type?
Deans should be ok on 3s… I always change mine to XT60 or XT90
Hey mate...thanks for the great vids...how about a comparo between the Eashine 14 and the WLToys 124017?
Great bash session bud, enjoyed that 👍
Cheers dude
Well done Helion!
Hint:
Look up the Helion Avenge, which this truck is a rebadged version of. 😂😂
Slightly revised from the Helion… but yeah, certainly based off it
@@TomleyRC no doubt. Could be different plastics etc. I'm sure as well. But every single part will bolt on and Helion parts are a half the price of the AE parts. A complete diff for example is around £40 for the AE, or £17 for the Helion...
Excellent review after that , mine is on its way . Keep up the good work !!!! 😁😁
How are u finding this car still. I have the Ftx carnage for my boy and seems to break every time we go out.

That definitely took a beating!
Yes lol... I could hear you cringing after every jump 😅
Looks fun the new armma looks awesome I'm excited
Hi do you think we should do any upgrade to motor mount plus screw fitting different way or is oem good as it comes
I might pick up one of these.
Not surprised they're sold out, these are the real deal if you want an RC car!
I would’ve bashed that hard with my 3S BLX granite it would’ve been in pieces! That’s a tough MT!
Good day to you sir from one English man to another what would sudjest one of these orrrr any of the arrma 3s range? Not sure what to get mate need some help deciding.
You should try it at that mini off-road bike trail in heanor I think? Can’t remember where it is now :(
Solid MT for sure! Sold mine but would have kept it if I didn't own a Kaiju. Great run👍👍
Kaiju is a nice truck also
you kept a redcat over a team associated?
@@TheRaptor700Rider Yessir! The Redcat Kaiju is a bigger version of this truck.
Just brought tickets to try win one of these 🤞

I would say original Slash 4X4, not the brushless one, just the brushed one, and he should be good to go, trust me the Slashes are literally built like Tanks, very durable!?
I wonder if they updated the a arms. Seems to have taken a decent beating but remember arms were a weak point.
Yes, everyone says they were weak, but I've had no issues... so maybe they have been beefed up
Great video dude. Your driving skills are vastly improving, much better than mine! 😂
Haha cheers mate. Takes a bit of practice, but this is pretty forgiving
Seems like it needs just a little more beans for those in air rotations...?
Good job mate!:)
Great vid as always and nice MT! did you ever try Team Corally? The 1/8th scale 6s truggy Kronos V1 is on sale atm it looks really tough. I just bought myself one, can't wait to test it this weekend.
I keep thinking about the TC stuff... maybe next year
@@TomleyRC awesome! keep the vids coming, top quality content. Do you mind telling me where you recorded this bash session?
Who would call this truck weak? I mean the arms are not as strong as the Helion version but that's it...They are a great chassis for sure.
Probably people that don't know how to loom after them!
Wow that things awesome great car looks fun 👍
Yes, good fun!
It looks really good might get one soon
Nice Bro 👌
Cheers dude
That's a mean machine 👍
Not £80, but it seem to be worth the cost. Nice video. $300 here in the US
No it's about £250
this was so satisfying to watch lol
does Losi make a monster truck?
That rig looks amazing so durable I want one if it's sent to the moon it will die or will it ????
It should come back from the Moon okay 🤟
I'm gonna get one! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
please make more videos of this mt10 !!!!
Yeah... that’s the plan
@@TomleyRC awsome thanks!!
Hello where is this skatepark at mate
Convinced - Getting one
You won’t be disappointed
I enjoyed it👍👍😄😄💯💯
That is what I need for my son
He'll love it
"A concrete skatepark is the worst place for these and it's eating it up!" While at a wood skatepark.
This thing will take any kind of surface haha
This or the HPI Savage XS or Hobao Hyper 10tt?
All top brands are good they are not designed for running like this but the companies will not complain because you just buy more parts .
Yes agree... the more you brake, the more money you spend!
This is gonna be my next truck; problem is, I owe my kids 1 new truck each before it's my turn again 😒
Haha
This or the Maverick BLX for someone just want to have fun not spending more on upgrading & fix maintaining? Thanks
I'd get this over a maverick
what 'c' rating 3s battery would be good for this?
What battery's did you use dude.?
I'm convinced!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
How is associated vs. Arrma?
I owned the traxxas rustler and I got rid of it for this best decision I ever made this blows the rustler away
Would you buy the Associated MT10 over the Arrma Big Rock?
Yes... based in the price in the UK, the MT10 is the better deal. But the Big Rock is a solid choice
Sweet
Looks tougher than my emaxx
Yeah, probably is lol
new sub great vid thanks
