Thank you for this honest feedback which is made by someone who knows about RC. The biggest flaw for me is the suspension travel which is really too small, I hope this is corrected in V2.
Neat little truck. I hope the address the few issues. I'm in no rush to buy it right now. I played this pre order game with Rlaarlo. I'll pick one up off Amazon a couple weeks after launch at a discount. I hope they sell a bunch and decide to keep building bigger trucks and buggies.
Hey man I promise I'm not looking to sell you anything, but this truck was only available for $290 shipped when I first bought, and they've raised it to $300. Well currently makerfire is advertising $250 and they're offering a 7% discount I found through Google putting this truck at $230 shipped. Honestly a steal at that price. Fwiw. Omni Terminator all over again for me.
I just joined your Facebook group, I didn’t regret the people are really helpful, and we can share our experience about driving or upgrading. I had a few nice upgrade ideas, thanks a lot.
@keldonator make sure you order your $170 truck! Haha these are insane! I buy variety shim packs m2 m2.5 m3 m4 and literally put them everywhere there's play and will fit. Hard to track each size, but pretty much every moving joint is shimmed or sanded to perfection, a arm pins, hub pins, steering joints, etc
Just found this amazing item on AliExpress. Check it out! $39.18 | Esilun 4pc RC Truck Tires 12mm/14mm Hex with Foam Inserts for 1/10 Arrma Granite Axial Losi Redcat Rc4wd RC Monster Truck Buggy a.aliexpress.com/_m09THfq
Yes it works absolutely fine and is very serviceable. The range isn't even all that bad, I just had trouble when driving it away from me at ~50mph. Its so fast it can get out of range quick. Check out the video here at around 2:50 ruclips.net/video/3bA9305OwNg/видео.htmlsi=qWIPJVyh7TB2YS1u
Yes it does! The gyro is in the reciever, and any dumbo reciever with a "g" in the part number is a gyro reciever. I'm using an x6dcg in this truck, but have not needed nor tried the gyro function.
@armandopace6113 yeah I was super excited and not disappointed! They don't have all the kinks out quite yet and she's not super refined, but sure is a hoot and takes a beating!
Is there a servo, esc, receiver that you would suggest installing on the h14bm? My daughter's is beginning to have an electric burning smell and all I can tell is that nothing plastic is burning so I'm ganna get extras in preparation for breaking? And at that point is it worth getting a different controller?
Honestly, those are all three great things to upgrade. Especially the esc to get rid of the lag, and the steering will be so much better. Here's my recommendations: Inexpensive but good transmitter/ reciever: a.aliexpress.com/_mt57NZm Best transmitter/ receiver: a.aliexpress.com/_mObHETO Esc: 45a good a.aliexpress.com/_mNm23Ti 50a better a.aliexpress.com/_mL61xMy Servo: Good and comes with Servo saver a.aliexpress.com/_mr9w2ug Better a.aliexpress.com/_m0uWLcG
@stevenblackard2204 I haven't heard of many burnt up motors in these. I personally think the motor is good and bordering on too fast already. People do enjoy having a gyro option and it's nice that you can turn it on or off at any time. The dumbo recievers with a "g" in the part number have it built in.
I remember you replied to me that If.. there was a throttle (esc) delay, it could be fixed with the app. Idk if its a transmitter or receiver or esc problem, but in some rc's (like the 1/16th scale hypergos), you can press the throttle on say a quarter of a full press on throttle, and keep your finger there, and the rc would never respond.. that being a dead zone (as opposed to throttle delay being it would eventually go). Is there a dead zone on this rc? Thx if answer!👍
Having the MJX 14210 V2 with a such a big range, using what appears to be the same transmitter, why would the 10208 perform worse than a previous model?
I really appreciate your honest and thorough review. Please never sell out to big brands that cause RUclipsrs to mislead people. THANK YOU!
Thank you for your support! It's more fun to grow the hobby than my collection! I've already got too many

@julienv1959 thanks for watching!
Really appreciate the detailed review. Never seen those hex hubs before! Hope those wheels are just the ticket 👍
I hope so too!
Great review! I think this MJX model could be my next rc car. There is lot of hype regarding it and it seems to be justified. 😊
I've been having a great time with it!
Thank you for the update.
For sure! Thanks for watching!
Great review! Very thorough and some excellent information. Subbed. I guess I’m special that I got the white body!
@@RazorRC don't mind me, just a little starstruck over here....
@@VoltUpRC honestly, there’s no difference (at least to me) from when I had 100 subs to 40k subs.
Been watching since you started! Hey if you get a second, check out the video I just put up, aluminum upgrades coming for the 10208!
White body version was more expensive on offical website. You can show off now 😉
Good job in giving it the time needed to get a good take on the RC . More review vids should be coming any day . Appreciate the vids .
I believe the floodgates are about to open! Thanks for watching!

I agree 100%! I also pre ordered a carbon at $250 and then got to see everybody get the sweet amazon deals....

Welcome aboard!
Where exactly did you put the shims and what size shims did you use, do you remember? Thanks for sharing, I've joined the fb group

@@keldonator thanks for watching!
@@VoltUpRC I did, and with the coupon it was $146 so I also grabbed some aluminum c hubs. Just the electronics seem to be worth that
@keldonator best deal I've heard yet! Make sure you get your 260mm straps too!
Do you mind adding a link for the wheels in the description of the video.
Will do if they end up worth having! Would hate to advertise garbage... I'll share it here for you but don't want to go public with it just yet

Looks like MJX is taking more time with R&D fixing the bugs, they've pushed the ETA it was initially at end of June now its end of July.
Very interesting information. I had not heard this. Are you able to share your source so I can look into it?
@VoltUpRC look at both sites MJX and Makerfire
I sure will
Well the White body is supposedly being shipped end of June on the MJX site but Makerfire where I have my order in its ETA is now end of July
Hypergorccar.com is still telling me they'll start shipping June 30
Besides the receivers range, is the standard controller okay?
Yes it works absolutely fine and is very serviceable. The range isn't even all that bad, I just had trouble when driving it away from me at ~50mph. Its so fast it can get out of range quick. Check out the video here at around 2:50

Does your Dumbo rc have a gyro with it?
Yes it does! The gyro is in the reciever, and any dumbo reciever with a "g" in the part number is a gyro reciever. I'm using an x6dcg in this truck, but have not needed nor tried the gyro function.
Great video mate about time they made a 1/10. And they are bringing out the v2 in a month 😢

Oh and by the way, you HAVE to replace your reciever and transmitter together so they will bind and be compatible. You cannot do one at a time
@VoltUpRC thank you!! If the motor burns up should I replace or upgrade? And is a gyro worth it?
@stevenblackard2204 I haven't heard of many burnt up motors in these. I personally think the motor is good and bordering on too fast already. People do enjoy having a gyro option and it's nice that you can turn it on or off at any time. The dumbo recievers with a "g" in the part number have it built in.
@@VoltUpRC got it Dumbo rc transmitter and if motor needs replacing get an exact replacement. Thank you so much

Is there a dead zone on this rc?
Thx if answer!👍
This truck doesn't have any noticeable throttle delay, like what was experienced with the 1/14 scales. Thanks for watching!
@@VoltUpRC But does it have a dead zone tho? As far as Ive been made aware those are 2 different things
I haven't noticed this, and unfortunately ditched the stock system pretty quick for the ddf-350
U live in st marrys?
And is that the v one or the v two
@RichardRest this video is on the first v1 in the US. I have not made a video on the v2 yet but have started a huge 10208 fb community on the truck
Having the MJX 14210 V2 with a such a big range, using what appears to be the same transmitter, why would the 10208 perform worse than a previous model?
I'm not really sure, maybe it was just a glitch on my end, maybe they changed the software at some point?
@@VoltUpRC I just hope that issue gets fixed in the V2, thanks for the video!
The batteries in the controller have a huge effect on range. Not saying that is the issue here as I haven't watched all the videos.
For example I converted my DX5C to a 2s lipo and the range is better than with the 4xAA it uses from the factory.
If it's the Amazon version then it was made strictly for export so it wouldn't have to go by the same restrictions.
