It looks great but $389 for a brushed almost 1:10 that don’t even has turnbuckles and requires special batteries? You can get a true 1:10 car like a Traxxas 4tec or a HPI RS4 brushless cheaper than this 😱😤. No way I am going to buy this, it’s just way to expensive.
The reason it came stock with thin oil is because the company was probably expecting people to run the drift tyres, and drift cars have super thin suspension oil to make them more planted on track. I tried using thicker oil in my YD2 and it was just a mess, lol
I'm a cheap man but every once in a while I will pay more than I'm comfortable for something I want or need. Money will always come and go but happiness is priceless. Gotta spoil yourself from time to time.
$300 licensing, $140 truck. AND with that licensing they didn't even get the big names like Monster lol... Hoonigan showcased the truck on their channel but when you listen to the video of it running they clearly swapped out the stock electronics for a brushless system...
You are BY FAR my favorite rc reviewer. You project your regular personality at a nice, agreeable tone. I like genuine people who don't plaster on a fake face for likes. Keep it up man. Great stuff!
Great video as always. Really pleased for you being able to buy the things that you want, you work hard for it. I wished I could afford a felony or a ex07 , but unfortunately I am registered disabled and rely on benefits so I will just have to make do with my sg1604. 😊
I love my team associated rat rod truck that's brushless, gyro, LEDs installed with the same controller but two wheel drive. I bought it last year for $349 and thought it was a bit expensive. Thanks man!
Those trucks look epic. I'd say from what I've seen the only let Downs is the plastic shocks and the ESC motor combo for me. It should have been brushless everything else they offer is brushless. But I guess it's a good excuse to play with other motor and esc combos LOL
great video.. that dampening change really helped this loads i noticed.. i use to partly race just in my garden. had a Tamiya Porsche the rare martini one, neighbours who tweaked theirs modded mine, ended up getting a Schumacher cat2000 in parts, then a team associated b4.2 off road. boxed but took it out once indoors, a losi small one i forget the name for it. raced it a bit, was fun.. of all off road cars id seen and wanted to get, or even try oneday, was Tenth Technology xk10. the suspension system on it was something. strange why they chose that, until seeing how it handled.
470 euro for a Brushed 1/12 scale with a warped wing and crappie shocks, for that kind of money should not have any of those problems plus ir should have clear windows and an interior and should fit a normal size battery If it is for the hoonigan sticker just get the hpi mustang
In all honesty i am feeling a little underwhelmed...... For the price i expected nicer wheels, shock oil in the shocks, brushless and something more even if that was just a branded keychain to hang from your transmitter.... The shell is nice and detailed, i like the break rotor details, it will be interesting to see what the other gearset does.
Your explanation of paying the premium on the hoonigan branding juxtaposed to Jordan branding is spot on. Which is why this truck is probably not really going to sell in droves - the rc community go for features (what they are paying for), which is why the likes of wltoys, zd racing, feiyue, fs racing, vrx racing (ftx) et. al have decent sales.
Nike is just a horrible company and I will never understand why people want shoes made for 10$ with slave labor 😂. But I understand the point, I collect all kinds of things. I just personally think Nike is a garbage company.
Thats awesme! The people geting upset about brushed...need to realize that a good brushed motor is better for drifting then a brushless motor in alot of cases!
As for your comment about the coffee: that's true in a LOT of cases. I use a zippo lighter and the package for the flints easily outweighs the actual cost of the 5 flints. BUT, Included in the price of the coffee is: rent on the place you bought it. Wages of the people who made it. Insurance, utilities, taxes, fees, licences, upkeep..... A lot of things are WAY overpriced which people gladly pay for. Don't get me started on bottled water. Here? People pay over $2.00 CDN for one and the actual cost of the bottle and water is close to 5 cents. I bought a case when I went camping 3 years ago, saved the bottles and refill them. The beauty about them for going camping, you freeze all 24 and it keeps your food cold in the cooler and as they melt, you have fresh cold water to drink.
We are loving the videos that are coming out at the moment mate! You deserve to get given products to review! You're honest and I totally agree with You about the shocks out the box.....shocking!
To each their own . I bought a Bianchi Super Pista frameset because I wanted one. Could've spent less on another brand, but I wouldn't have been happy.. kudos
If you wanna talk about expensive, about 2 yrs ago, a local cafe near the River Exe waterfront charged me 70p more for a soya latte! Of course they have seats out side looking over the little harbour and it's all very nice. But I've bought my coffees elsewhere for the last 2 years.
Made a mistake. Walked into hobby shop on the way to work. Horizon Arrma sale, LIMITLESS..... One of the employees had a WL buggy he was running around in the parking lot. Really impressive how smooth that little car is.
Great vid. Man, I've waited years for an official RC Hoonitruck but I really hoped for something less toy like, bigger and brushless. So disappointed. The official WR8 cars were expensive but way better than this.
I've just seen the price!!!!!😱 OUCH,,, that's more expensive than the Arrma 3s range "including the mighty Typhon 1/8" and for it to come brushed, the wrong shock oil, and only holds a shorty pack,,,, I'm very disappointed with it. Great video as alway's Phil 👊
I don’t like the price, but I love Rc’s with absolute controllable and linear power bands! Thank goodness for magnets 🧲 or maybe even leprechauns 🍀 for saving that precious Insta360! 👍🏻😝😎☕️
All you need to do is put a small cable tie on those clips then trim it off so you’ve got a little handle to pull them out. Suspension is pony for the money innit. Nice work upgrading it a huge improvement. It looks great though.
Easy diy pinless body mounts with nutserts and a bolt. It looks fantastic but brushed? Should be brushless for the price in my honest opinion. Looks similar to my mavrick quantum flux R brushless rc on road truck in gunmetal grey. Those shocks are very soft. Great video review once again - me in Australia
G10 is what they use for knife handles and handgun scales Phil,I only know for sure from watching forged in fire lol Pretty tough material though😁 Them Trainers are fugly tho btw lol Each to his own bro 😁😁
@@TomleyRC Got a m8 who collects trainers,can't believe what some of them are worth m8,own quite a few myself but i'm a boring reebok classis kind o guy so mine are worth f**k all 😂
Honestly I think the suspension.. is like that because of the set up of that KIND of suspension set up. It's not setup like a truck... But also not like a car... But they did have fluid in them... So we're wrong about that.
You can bend the body clips yourself with pliers, in case you didn't know... but the loop end in the pliers, hold nice and tight, push the opposite end to the ground. Wallah. And yeah, a little pricey.
Exactly. Dang near everything now is RTR which is fairly annoying. Get a few RC vehicles and you end up with a closet full of remotes too lol. I guess the days of enjoying the build have moved on for the most part, as the newer generation is more for instant gratification.
I went to buy either the Fireteam or the Mojave or the new on-road one and fell over this and without looking at the price pre-orders were being taken I thought it looked epic, so I now for the first time in my life a brushed 1/10th vehicle, it arrived before the projected date had to wait for a 7.4volt 2S battery as I had none not sure what size battery, motor and ESC I have a very good steering servo. I have bent the R clips. It is bouncy, slow, sluggish steering so hoping that you point me in the right direction for more power and better handling I will have to invest in a 3S FOR MORE FUN.
Yes, it’s certainly not the best out the box for the money. Hopefully a brushless set up will get it moving a bit! Shocks are good with a little thicker oil

G10 is practically what is used for making electronic boards, its not green but its the same, it can also be use as a build plate for 3D printing
Thank god for magnets. That truck looks clean.
Yes… so lucky!

I am not sure if you have taste in rc cars but you have an incredible sense of speed! respect
😎🤟
That 3's lipo really woke it up👏👍
Certainly did
I've had many 1/4 scale helicopters who's frame was G-10. It's easily milled, and pretty sturdy, and low weight.
Been looking forward to this video. The sneak peeks on your tiktok haven't been enough for me 😁😂
Haha
Nice Jordans! And that truck too 👍😊👍
very well explained and informative video, just need two more. 5:40: What kind of lipo is that and where can I get it?

WOW TOMLEY DUDE THIS RC CAR RIPS PERFECT INDEED!!! CHEERS FROM HAMZA!! 😝
Love it 😍😍 would be wicked to see with some drift wheels on it
@TomleyRc Dude I freakin love that you’re a “Kicks” guy as well as an RC Enthusiast! I thought I was the only one!

Nice video. Love your approach to these videos. And one nice truck...trying not to love it...😁

I use use small key chain like rings for body pins. Makes it easy peasy to pull pins out.
Thats awesme! The people geting upset about brushed...need to realize that a good brushed motor is better for drifting then a brushless motor in alot of cases!
EVERY REVIEW IVE SEEN SO FAR HAVE SAID YOUR PAYING FOR THE BODY👍🏻😊

They definitely set up the suspension like a drift car. I don't think that's a bad thing.

Love that thing ! PLEASE Hoon it!
You should make the lap time board like the one from the original top gear maybe on the back wall or something 👍
Awesome vídeo Bro! Very complete and Yeasaah!
Nice run with Hoonigan on T. I. T.T
To each their own . I bought a Bianchi Super Pista frameset because I wanted one. Could've spent less on another brand, but I wouldn't have been happy.. kudos
I spent a fair amount on my bike… and then added a Brooks saddle which cost me a small fortune haha
As a sneaker head you know my favourite part 😜 Damn that was luck with that camera. Nice one, phew!
Jordan 3’s are so hard to get in the UK
O yeah 💯👌👌. Looking Sweeeet 👍
Top Insta 360 recovery action!
If you want something bad enough, you fork over the green 👍 nice job sir!

I always say it`s your money spend it on whatever you want and if I had the money I`d buy that truck in a heartbeat
just on looks alone =)
Very nice. It's always going to cost more if its properly licenced, but the smiles per mile make up for it!! 😎🤘🏻

That's a lot of money... interested in the brushless conversion you do though, and it does look sweet
I'll be adding one myself thanks for the video

no denying it bud it does look awesome 👍
Yes it does doesn’t it 👌
I enjoyed your review, thank you.
Thanks dude
Ken block be like 🤦♂️.... Lol!!😂😂😂
Your driving in drifting.. hahaha!!
I believe G10 is a sort of fiberglass laminate used mostly for (pocket) knife handles.
Runs awesome for drifting and skids
I've just seen the price!!!!!😱
OUCH,,, that's more expensive than the Arrma 3s range "including the mighty Typhon 1/8" and for it to come brushed, the wrong shock oil, and only holds a shorty pack,,,, I'm very disappointed with it. Great video as alway's Phil 👊
Yes… really not cheap!
The track suit looks awesome!! where can I find one if those and those Jordans⛹️ are clean

Sos is this sonsored.. or sensor less... I don't know how it works for brushed... Or brushless actually

G 10 is layered kinda like carbon fiber also very high chemical and water resistance.40k psi tensile strength on the cross section.great video
Why is your coffee so heavy?
Lol
Fun vid, thanks for the time
I don't necessarily think it's to expensive.but they should of chucked one of there reedy brushless systems in it.
Yes I agree 👌
@@TomleyRC could use the old system from Dr10. Another quality vid tho mate.lovin the content
I've seen the brake callipers break off very easy. Speed wise it's more of a short range Hooner mind so not a problem for me.
Yes, geared perfectly for some skids
Who cares what people think man it’s bad ass!!
The Supreme Hornet, but that was expensive & that still sold well.
Costa tasts like swamp water lol. That is a sweeet truck
😅

aint expensive if you love it mate :)
Very nice💯👊🏻👊🏻
Shouldn't have watched this video- now I want one...😂
Haha
When you can buy 2 or 3 of the wltoys you just tried with paddle tires. For the same price ? ? You can make a hoonagain sticker pretty cheap
Arrma tough baby! Felony 6S with 22 tooth pinion and 120C 6S battery on Hoon golds burns all four tires on demand and goes 80mph. 800 dollars!

AE - from “toy-car”, crawlers to race kits.. 😂 it’s all made by Thunder Tiger.. TT RTR is one of the most robust RC car back in the days ..

Hi mate, Are you local to Surrey? Wondered if you fancied meeting up either for a joint video or just for some RC driving lol
The cost of a cup of coffee makes me appreciate my coffee maker...and thats not cheap either....
Just goes to show how much the brand can add to the value. If that was a none branded or cheap banggood thing it would be less than half the price
I HAVE THE PATCH WORK 3s as WELL THATS AWESOME I HAVENT SEEN ANYONE WITH THEMMM
Good taste 👌
The reason I don’t seem like 10th scale is because the hoonitruck is pretty small 3:28
