I hope diffs are better than previous Mad Force and FO-XX, they were weak even on 4s, I had to decrease the punch setting to make them last a bit longer. Diffs were the same as the Inferno MP7 and Neo if I remember right. I also remember Kyosho had the hardened steel one as upgrade, both for spider gears and bevel gears, they were better but not bulletproof. Not the best platform in the durability side, but sure it was fun as hell 😈, on 6s probably it can do standing doubleflips 😂. I don't like the new wheelie bar but for the rest it seems quite an improvement.
Same esc as the Inferno Neo 3.0 VE, I put a 19tooth pinion in mine and ran 48mph. Saw someone put a max 8 in and ran 70mph, motor is 6s capable too! I assume the motor in this would be too?
I'm so glad that all these companies are starting to release more solid axle monster trucks. The clodbuster and the smt10 are nice, but the losi LMT and now this thing, is like a breath of fresh air for the hobby.
Kyosho is a bit of an underrated brand. I still have my og USA-1 I bought new in 1991. The Clodbuster and the USA-1 were the only big tired 4wd monster trucks at the time. Getting mine running again is this winter's project.
Seen a Clodbuster way back in the day! Lusted after one for ever! Barely resisted the monster truck bug! Back then we’re talking 2 - brushed 540 motors, 2 - 7.2 volt ni-cad batteries. About 50lbs, appropriate run-time…. 3 minutes! 😂
@@TomleyRC I still have the predecessor to the USA-1, the Kyosho Double Dare. For that matter the Kyosho Big Brute is a predecessor as the 2wd variant. All had the same gearboxes and suspension till the USA-1 came along. I upgraded my Double Dare with USA-1 suspension as the Double Dare with 4wd/4ws is anything but stable. Unfortunately I have to resign that the Tamiya Clodbuster won the war. The good news is that it makes my Double Dare extremely unique.
I’m excited about this one. Mine has finally arrived after months and months. 👍🏻👍🏻 Yep you can get a 4 wheel steering kit. I’m surprised at the flimsy parts for a Kyosho.
Hahaha!!! Thats exactly the first thing I saw too! I mean, the RC is cool and all, but that bike is clean! One day I'll relive my youth and buy another monochrome GT Performer with black mags. I miss that bike so much! My dad gave it to a coworker to give to her 12 year old son in the early 2000s when I moved out. I left the bike there only because I was moving to an apartment. He didn't realize what it was worth lol.
Another amazing awesome video this RC Monster Truck is awesome another one I want to pick up and get that looks like a piece and wicked fun thank you again for these great videos that you put out I'm learning a lot more getting back into remote control cars off-road and Street getting back into it I used to be really heavily into it when I was younger
I'm getting back into RCS it's been a long time I was maybe a teenager and a child and I was really heavily into all the old stuff from the 80s and little bit into the 90s and then I stopped I'm getting back into it cuz remote control cars are wicked and awesome and I have lots of fun brings back memories and thank you for this brings back tons of fun memories good memories specially how crazy the world we live in today and what's going on in the world this is so fun so cool thank you so much for this content definitely inspires me to get some really cool cars and some cool wicked stuff
Excellent! Thanks for doing the size comparison next to the Mad Van and MT10. The truck looks huge. Even though this is a 2 year old video shot "old school" it looks great! The truck really looks nice.
thank you ! I been waiting for YOUR video of this truck. I have been very interested in this truck. I hope you do more videos in the future with it. thanks again !
Oh I do hope they will make millions and upon millions of these, because they will be sold faster than they can make them! This one was my childhood dream rc car, I will have to save up to one, thanks a million for showing us this one!
I see all your Christmas have come at once.Good job you never had the lights fitted to the truck when you flipped it. I absolutely love kyosho especially the vintage stuff wicked truck.
I want one!!!!!! I have 2 nitro Kyosho USA-1s. I had the first one in the late 80's. I love it to bits. Bashed it, restored and mothballed it. Has been a shelf queen ever since. I recently bought another nitro USA-1 recently. Everything works, so had a quick run, but too fearful I might crash it. Spares are impossible to find.
I want 1 of these so bad. I remember back in the day going back and forth between ordering this or the Clodbuster. The 4ws and twin motors won out, but I've always wanted a USA-1. This thing looks like a blast. I didn't even know Kyosho still made these. I do wish it was a kit to build and not an RTR though.
I remember lusting after the original USA-1, back in the day. Looks incredible!! And a handful with a full throttle start!! And you want to run twin motors!! You're gonna need a bigger wheelie bar!! 😎🤘🏻
Thank you for this great content that you put out and I really appreciate it a lot I look forward to getting some of these RC cars that you have in your collection they look Wicked fun Wicked, and I just can't wait to get them
Oh my word that is blooming awesome.. oh and wltoys take note, true speed on the box 😂 I am really impressed with this and that chain drive seems to work really well, I’m looking forward to seeing how the chain and truck holds up to off-roading,, I’m getting rid of my typhon 6s as it doesn’t really do much for me, hmm this could well be its replacement.. looking forward to the next video on this one for sure 👍
Very nice! I love my kyosho foxx VE ...be careful they are torque monsters! I see on the box they beefed up the axles wonder what they made different on them now?
The only things missing is a crate of bear in the back, a holy cross in the interior and a gun sticker on the window. One word for this truck 'Murica 🤣
Got mine yesterday (489 euros here in Barcelona) and it's really, really big. Videos or photos don't do it justice. You really need to see it in person and hold it with your arms to appreciate how huge and bulky it is. For my taste, the steering angle and suspension could come a little better adjusted from the factory, the rest is great. I love it!
I've got the Mad Force Kruiser, which essentially is this truck, it is a beast, and is one of the best Straight axle Monster trucks out there !!! Beautiful Rig, Boogie on !!!
Very Cool👌❤ You said it's not a skate park basher...? Well, there are this guys in US competing outdoors and indoors with Solid Axles Monster trucks with a similar Layou but all reeforced and upgraded and it's just insane the indor Freestyle Sessions in an auto garage; the reach about 6 to 10 feet high jumps and respective landings(😬) on the concrete 👌👌👌❤ But you already should know their Channel 😁
Nice! I've got a KYOSHO MadForce, nitro and 3-speed chain drive - even after all these years the engine still starts so easily. It's a great truck. Huge, same chassis as yours there. The only weak spot I found were the steering link arms, for its weight bouncing around on corners etc it'd pop off the rose joints. I simply removed all the narrow link arms and made a U shaped bracket bolting it to the suspension near the axle and mounted a servo directly there, making my own chunky steering arms to each hub - problem solved. Much better!
Something I can run where I live, but not my style. Wanted the original as a kid. But I’m concerned that there are Christmas decorations up in October!!!
I had the Nitro for all of a month till totaled, yes chain drive drains a lot of power belt drive better shaft or gears far better there used to be conversions to belt and a gears one many moons ago.
Pretty dang cool When ya have a bad landing or crash the parts pop off and you just pop them back on Put some loctite on your wheel bolts They are known to come off ✌️
This was sitting on the shelf when I went to pick my Traxxas Slash Ultimate. I did so much research on the Slash I had to make a life decision because of the poor quality after owning and original USA-1 and purchased the Slash, but I keep thinking about the Kyosho.
Wow what a beast! It's got some power too! Love the size of it, especially those wheels. Don't drive this one into your ankles, ouch! 😁 Does it need the twin motors??!
@@TomleyRC Swipe your feet clean off. End up having to replace them with a couple of RC's like roller skates, a TX in each hand.. Hang on I've just had an idea! 🤔 😂
Just a correction on the ESC. It's a Rebranded 120A Hobbywing Max10 SCT (Kyosho Brainz 8). I might throw a Max8 in... 6s Baby! amzn.to/3ntm3Qj
Ok
I hope diffs are better than previous Mad Force and FO-XX, they were weak even on 4s, I had to decrease the punch setting to make them last a bit longer.

I don't like the new wheelie bar but for the rest it seems quite an improvement.
I'm really surprised they put a max 10 SCT in it. I'm pretty familiar with these ESCs and 11 lb is a lot of truck for a max 10 SCT
Same esc as the Inferno Neo 3.0 VE, I put a 19tooth pinion in mine and ran 48mph. Saw someone put a max 8 in and ran 70mph, motor is 6s capable too! I assume the motor in this would be too?
@@Bret_Jordan yeah but the neo weighs 3 lb less.
looks epic. im gonna go for the nitro version
That’s what I want too lol
Oh hell ya! Brapbrap, lol
I’ll race ya… that’s if you can get it started in time … I’ve seen you with Nitros 😅
Cool. love to see the nitro with the 3 speed! I think it's faster than the electric version!
kev he said NOT a skatepark 🤣
I'm so glad that all these companies are starting to release more solid axle monster trucks. The clodbuster and the smt10 are nice, but the losi LMT and now this thing, is like a breath of fresh air for the hobby.
Yes… a good sized Solid Axle MT… the more they make, the bigger the niche will get
And Redcat racing Ground Pounder (clod pounder)
Kyosho is a bit of an underrated brand. I still have my og USA-1 I bought new in 1991. The Clodbuster and the USA-1 were the only big tired 4wd monster trucks at the time. Getting mine running again is this winter's project.
I still have my original USA-1 also. RC has come a long way since then.
I just wish it wasn’t RTR.
I like it. Im not into any of the oldschool rcs but this one got me hooked. This is how a monster should look. Welldone
Seen a Clodbuster way back in the day! Lusted after one for ever! Barely resisted the monster truck bug! Back then we’re talking 2 - brushed 540 motors, 2 - 7.2 volt ni-cad batteries. About 50lbs, appropriate run-time…. 3 minutes! 😂
I had a Clodbuster a while back… I was a bit underwhelmed with it, so turned it in to a Clodzilla
I had the 90’s version of the USA 1 and it was my first “monster truck” loved it
I’d love an original
@@TomleyRC I still have the predecessor to the USA-1, the Kyosho Double Dare. For that matter the Kyosho Big Brute is a predecessor as the 2wd variant.

That kick off power is something else.
Beast mode!
I've always loved the crazy stuff Kyosho has been doing for all these years.
As always, have fun.
Yeah… they are a little different to the norm
They are pretty creative with their designs And you have to love the retro stuff
Looks good love to see you and Kevin Talbot race the two side by side.
Absolutely, we need a race!
Enjoy! Thank you for your strong work all the way from.....not only..... across the pond, across America from Los Angeles CA!!!!
That is beauty! Vow! I hope so much that kyosho could compete with other big brands!🤠
I’m excited about this one. Mine has finally arrived after months and months. 👍🏻👍🏻 Yep you can get a 4 wheel steering kit. I’m surprised at the flimsy parts for a Kyosho.
Yeah… seems like forever! Same as the Mad Van!
Great Review Tomley! I had the Nitro Version 20 years before. The Brushless Versions looks much more fun 👍 I may get one 😘
Nice old school bmx in the background 👌
Custom Super Tuff (my wife’s)
Hahaha!!! Thats exactly the first thing I saw too! I mean, the RC is cool and all, but that bike is clean! One day I'll relive my youth and buy another monochrome GT Performer with black mags.

This looks amazing. I'd be too scared to drive it since it looks so good and I wouldn't want to mess up the body lol😅
Next to the Losi LMT it's #2 on our wishlist. We love it 👍🏻😃

Hello Tomley RC ! This Kyosho Monster Truck is just monstrous ! I love !😍👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
😎🤟
That looks awesome, love the wheelies and the way it twists. 👍
Saw the Christmas lights in your video and was like, hang on, is it Christmas already!
It’s one of the few style of trucks that looks good with some torque twist 😎
@@TomleyRC yeah definitely, proper monster truck style. 👍 😎
thank you ! I been waiting for YOUR video of this truck. I have been very interested in this truck. I hope you do more videos in the future with it. thanks again !
I winced a bit when it skidded on it's roof. It looks amazing, looking forward to the next video of it 👍
Yeah… you and me both! Haha
A new MONSTER Truck for the HALLOWEEN season. I see what you did there Tomley. I'm savvy. 😉 Stunning machine.
🎃
That looks like an absolute beast! Looking forward to seeing it off road! Great video as always
I’m looking forward to running it 😍
Oh I do hope they will make millions and upon millions of these, because they will be sold faster than they can make them! This one was my childhood dream rc car, I will have to save up to one, thanks a million for showing us this one!
No probs dude… glad you enjoyed it
Wow, looks awesome!
Going to put it on the shelf alongside my Lmt's and Clodbuster.
And yes, one can enjoy rc's in different ways... 🤔😎
Yes… the Hobby is what you make of it. Sounds like an Epic Shelf you have!
I see all your Christmas have come at once.Good job you never had the lights fitted to the truck when you flipped it. I absolutely love kyosho especially the vintage stuff wicked truck.

(Double Wheelie Bar) for USA-1
As a citizen of the USA, that’s what half our trucks on the road look like. That RC isn’t exaggerated.
I can believe that 😎👍
And they love to get six inches behind my bumper on the expressway.
Man Congrats! Awesome RC Car! Every week you have a new model
I try to mix it up a bit.
What a beauty.. might consider this even when I'm not really a RC monstertruck guy.
Cool truck! You defo need a light kit in that crazy beast! And never thought I'd see the day when Kev T commented on one of your vids
Yes… would look awesome all lit up
Love this Guy..... best RC RUclipsr on RUclips... in the World
I know 😅
kyosho usa 1 lets go! i love my usa1 ve its a beast! and i just got the nitro version today . going to be epicness. great video tom
Awesome fun… I expect the Nitro will give a bit more enjoyment with all the noise.. but not sure it will have the Brushless instant torque
Wow Phil what a truck!! I just watched CCxRc unbox one and now your video. Xmas will be awesome this year i think lol
It’s a Beauty
Cool truck ,deffo a blast from past and very tempting indeed
Thank you for this great content that you put out and I really appreciate it a lot I look forward to getting some of these RC cars that you have in your collection they look Wicked fun Wicked, and I just can't wait to get them

Thank you
kyosha usa back in the days amazing car 4 wheel steer super awesome never had one...
Oh wow now that's a PROPER MONSTER TRUCK! it looks awesome, what camera are you using? because this video is so clear in low light
Yes.. came out okay. Just not a crisp as I’d have liked. Sony ZV1
Been eyeing this truck for awhile now gota couple Losi LMT's i like MT vibe. Thank you sir for the video!
Very nice! I love my kyosho foxx VE ...be careful they are torque monsters! I see on the box they beefed up the axles wonder what they made different on them now?
I’ve seen your Foxx video… in nearly one after watching it a few years back. Looks awesome on the sand
Such a beautiful monster truck
The only things missing is a crate of bear in the back, a holy cross in the interior and a gun sticker on the window.
One word for this truck 'Murica 🤣
A holy cross you say? Why?
Pretty impressive truck, Tomley! 😃
It really looks beautiful! Great review!!!
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
I like the Mystery Machine-like Lunchbox in the back!
Hopefully get on to that soon
Got mine yesterday (489 euros here in Barcelona) and it's really, really big.
Videos or photos don't do it justice. You really need to see it in person and hold it with your arms to appreciate how huge and bulky it is. For my taste, the steering angle and suspension could come a little better adjusted from the factory, the rest is great. I love it!
That looks absolutely fantastic!
It’s such a nice looking thing.. had a few scratches now though 🥴
6:25 oh no, you scuffed up the God Rod!!!!
I've got the Mad Force Kruiser, which essentially is this truck, it is a beast, and is one of the best Straight axle
Monster trucks out there !!! Beautiful Rig, Boogie on !!!
Cool video! 👍
Thanks dude
Wooowww
Nice sharing 🙏
oh yes that looks awesome bud, need to see more of this one 👍
Hopefully get out at the weekend for a Bash with it
The parking lot night shoot made it better if anything.
Very Cool👌❤
You said it's not a skate park basher...? Well, there are this guys in US competing outdoors and indoors with Solid Axles Monster trucks with a similar Layou but all reeforced and upgraded and it's just insane the indor Freestyle Sessions in an auto garage; the reach about 6 to 10 feet high jumps and respective landings(😬) on the concrete 👌👌👌❤
But you already should know their Channel 😁
I wish someone other that traxxas would make a Bigfoot look that good!
Yes agree!
Thanks for the very informative video! I must have a Kyosho USA-1 VE in my collection!
😁👍
That looks mint.....👍🇬🇧😎

right beast looks smart
Look forward to seeing how these hold up.
I love this video!! and i hope you stopped for a coffee after filming this😀
I stopped for a Double Quarter pounder 😅
I must say.Your beast is impressive.
Thank you 😊
That thing looks mahusive 👍🏻
All I could hear was the Team America theme tune 😆
Love the whistlindiesel pic 🤣🤣
Awesome looking truck. I can't buy anymore RC's until I sell one.
Buy extra shelving like tomley 😁
America needs to get on board with Christmas lights before Halloween. I am for it!
We go a bit early over here. Halloween is way bigger other there for you
Now that is awesome.
Can't wait to see you throwing that around the dirt! 👍
Me neither
Damn that's a big truck !
Everyone Man/Boy wants a Big Truck at some point in their life :)
Looks so cool 😎
I have the Kyosho FO-XX, looks identical under the plastic body work.
Converted mine to 6cell operation, works well with my heli batteries.
I like the FO-XX
I’d take brushless with a sound effects kit added for the gas sound.
Something I can run where I live, but not my style. Wanted the original as a kid. But I’m concerned that there are Christmas decorations up in October!!!
It’s the UK… we skip Halloween and go straight for Xmas 😅
I had the Nitro for all of a month till totaled, yes chain drive drains a lot of power belt drive better shaft or gears far better there used to be conversions to belt and a gears one many moons ago.
I’m not a fan of Nitro
Cool RC and run brother
Thank you
Pretty dang cool When ya have a bad landing or crash the parts pop off and you just pop them back on Put some loctite on your wheel bolts They are known to come off ✌️
Cheers dude
wOOHOO! That thing's a beast!!!!! Price ain't too bad either. Hmm, maybe I'll be needing an Xmas prezzie after all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yeah.. a few have said it’s too expensive. But I think £469 for a 1/8 Nice looking BIG Brushless MT is okay.
you should run over some r/c cars with that
Yes.. maybe next time!
That truck is awesome it's definitely an upgrade from the old one!
Agree
Great looking truck
Will be nice to see it on a dirt track 👍🏻
I agree :)
Looks awesome. Glad to see it run👍
Looks like it has some serious torque, I wish the price point wasn’t so high. The more I see the more I want one .
Awesome truck, cant wait untill i get mine.
This was sitting on the shelf when I went to pick my Traxxas Slash Ultimate. I did so much research on the Slash I had to make a life decision because of the poor quality after owning and original USA-1 and purchased the Slash, but I keep thinking about the Kyosho.
love the vid and the Whistlindiesel spot 🤣
I had one in the 90's! 👍🍺🇬🇧
I’d love to get my hands on an original
O yeah!!!!! Looking forward too this !
Wow what a beast! It's got some power too! Love the size of it, especially those wheels. Don't drive this one into your ankles, ouch! 😁 Does it need the twin motors??!
Yeah… might hurt a little 😅
@@TomleyRC Swipe your feet clean off. End up having to replace them with a couple of RC's like roller skates, a TX in each hand.. Hang on I've just had an idea! 🤔 😂
Ooh it's a whopper sir! Could be one for the Christmas list 😃
Suits you sir…. 😅
Why does the left front wheel lifts when accelerating? Is that cause for concern? Sure is a nice rc truck. Good for bashing in my church, haha!
Torque twist… pretty realistic.. I like it
Badass, super cool😎🇺🇸
Bash it, bash it! Woohoo! Looks great!
Been wanting this since they first showed it just a cool truck
looks Great that Tomley.
