I have got one of these and let me tell you.. it's worth every penny! I have had zero problems with it.. it was 243 dollars before tax I believe so half the cost of the real thing.. again worth every penny
We have the same taste Aaron. Ordered mine last weekend, should be in next weekend. I got the red. Cant wait! My last HB is still running great! When I heard this one was out , I just had to get it.Don’t have the beans for a real TRX-4😜! Awesome run and drive my dude!😎👊🏼💯
Good day sir, I just bought a used "Beluga"" without battery, but my available battery at the moment is a Li ion type. My question is where would you place the pin on the esc , in the Lipo or NiMH. No selection for Li ion in the esc. Thanks and more power to your channel.
Nice buy! Great truck dude. LiPo and Li-Ion run under the same principles for low voltage cut off. Put the pin in LiPo 👍 If you have it in NiMH mode the battery will drain until it's completely flat. If that that happens with a lipo or lithium ion, it will take it past the point of recovery and you will never be able to charge that battery again. Hope that helps bud
Nice video, it made me finally I ordered one (the red one) after much looking around. Was out of the hobby for a decade but wondered into RC shop a couple of weeks ago to kill time and thought I should get my stuff up and running again. Also though I should try a rock crawler and clerk recommended a TRX-4 but it was $700+ (I'm also in Canada), which would be about as much as my 1/8 Hyper brushless truggy so I passed. Anyway, looking forward to getting one in my hands and having as much fun as you seem to have.
Just seen this & paid $156 with tax on Ali for the maroon one. Always wanted a TRX4 Bronco but $500? Not that I haven't had more expensive crawlers ie SCX10 1 & 2, GS01, CR01 but as an RTR couldn't want to. I do have the TRX4M HT though. Thanks for your 2 cents & cheers!
Very nice jeep. I only have one Traxxas in my meagre collection but the TRX4 looks very promising. Great job on this video. Your channels is really nice. 👍👏
Hi, this one of the best reviews of R1001 I've watched. Could you please let me know if charger is included in the box? and how many minutes we can drive with the battery it comes?
I think for the price, yes it's totally the best. Great starter that can be modified with a lot of standard bit you can get for 1/10 scale trucks. The body does have to come off, but it has hidden clips and is super easy. I don't recommend charging batteries while they are inside the vehicle though. It's best to take them out and charge well away from anything combustible. Make sure you keep an eye on it from time to time as well 👌
There is no way in hell I'd buy an off brand RC vehicle unless there were a large number of replacement/compatible parts for them. I'm not talking about little easily replaced things, but the little bits that break and that's all she wrote. My cheapest large scale crawler is the FMS Atlas, but at least I know that FMS is good with the cheap spare parts. I have enough spares to rebuild a couple times. I have better stuff, but am drawn to the power wagon style so I drive it a lot. Being able to freely get parts is important to me.
I totally get your point. HB Toys has been around for awhile now and has a few 1/10's with matching part numbers. The Atlas is nice for the same price, but I just feel with the portals and styling, this one appeals to me more. Guess that's what makes this hobby great, there's something out there for everyone's taste 👍😎
@@coolhawk2003 I personally went arrma 6s platform (fireteam, did the front bearing/shimjob first, ten bucks) and that thing is - holy 💩! The xmaxx is cool, just not for me
Can confirm that Hobbywing ESCs are good. Used one as a replacement in my first gen E Revo after going through 3 of the stock Traxxas ESCs... it has more punch and better modulation for a fraction of the price!
Not all Hobbywings are equal. The 1060 is marginal at best, while the 1080 is awesome for a brushed crawler. The 1040 that comes in a lot of large scale trucks is straight up dog shit.
Haven't seen one of your videos until now but I'm now subscribed for future. Very entertaining and thanks for putting this affordable truck on my radar. Looks like it'll handle my trail needs just fine. I haven't gotten into crawling yet but maybe now I will.
I just ordered one for my wife and me. Are those 4.2 tires on 1.9 wheels? It will be our second 1/10, first was a redcat ascent but we wanted something more scale looking for out next one. Is it still holding up? Plastic gears sketch me out a bit.
Yes, I've been working with them and buying products from them for years. Very good. This truck is worth it for the price, after over a dozen packs of my bad driving, I've yet to break anything 👍😁
Hey, You're still making Great rc videos, thanks! I bought one of these using your code. Any chance of a future discount code on the new one? HB Toys 1011, Jeep
A great looking truck with plenty of scale details, a 2-speed gearbox, good electronis and excellent performance - all at a price that is hard to pass up! 👍 I mean, VERY tempting but.....?! I really do find it difficult to support these overseas companies that clone (rip-off?) the designs of established manufacturers. You know all the reasons why you should support local businesses so, I won't bore you with the details. Funny thing is, some of these overseas companies are making great products and deserve a fair shot . However, blatantly copying another manufacturer's product just doesn't sit right with me. Of course, this IS Traxxas, and the temptation to stick it to them is really hard to resist, lol! Hmmmmmm? 🤔
I've actually gone into the guts of it and the running gear is actually completely different. The similarities are superficial. Ideas taken, but the design is it's own-ish 😂
@disciplinerc yep, I built such a cool crawler from an entry level crawler, with all the upgrades I did it actually gives a TRX4 a run for it's money lol
This is more cost effective for sure, but the Gen8 has OEM and aftermarket parts for days readily available. This is really tough though, a dozen packs through with my rough driving and no breaks 💪
@@lnpxw20if you don't mind me asking where from and did you have to pay import fees? I'm also from the UK and want one but it'll be closer to £200 if I get charged import
I would still only buy the real deal, this thing looks like what it is. A cheap copy, and what about parts? How long will they be avail? These knock off companies seem to disappear along with their parts.
I got two of these thanks to your video =) can you tell me as far as tires or upgrades in general do the traxxas parts work are the wheel nuts the same size? Thanks!
It's more inline with typical 1/10 crawlers. I've torn it apart and aside from looking similar, the internals are quite different. Wheel wise, Traxxas hexes don't fit at all
@@disciplinerc If you get a chance to measure the wheel hex size could you let me know I can't find information anywhere about the hex size. I assume 12mm but could be wrong. Thanks!
It is too pricy for what it is, a clone that has mess it with the lights and other details. TRX4M is chaper, it is not a clone and it is quite enjoiable. BUT if you have the nice real one ... I probably will try to go for one of this to keep the other in the best saphe and mod this one to be a beast and try new things. But out of the box ... not for me.
The quality is still very questionable. The gears, the plastics, shocks, bearings, the entire drivetrain... It's not just about the fancy features or electronics. For example Traxxas is known for using some of the highest grade plastics out there. Better save up and get the proper thing, you won't ever regret unlike this one.
I won't disagree, but I will say that for 1/3 the price, you are getting an amazing value. I've put 14 - 5200mah 3s packs through this thing, driving it hard...really hard, and nothing has broken. Check out the upgraded version video to see what I mean. For people who don't want to commit to spending a lot because they are new to the hobby, this is a great jump off point 👍

Ours caught fire 🔥
How many trx4 parts will fit this? Most the parts on the hg p411 clone are cross compatible with the trx4 so wondering if it's a similar deal here.
Could one put a trx4 body on this? Say, if one wanted a defender style makeover?

Sniffs the tire glue then "accidentally" jabs the truck with the knife......Awesome! My kind of review. 👍

Is the real traxxas parts compatible with it? Like the motor?
Some do yes, the motor will work, no issue. This has more in common with standard 1/10 parts than it does with Traxxas. It just looks Traxxas-esque
Is this still the BEST beginner rock crawler today? Do you have to remove the body each time I need to charge the battery? Thanks 👍

Nice! You won't be sorry
Parts availabel or interchangebal with TRX4 parts?
Some axle parts and hubs work, but most do not. It's not a direct clone at all, it is its own design just set up very similarly.
Sadly, mine broke first time out. And since I left a friend drive it so we can crawl together, it means I never got to even drive it
Love the video❤🔥. I just got mine last week(red one), I just love it, great value for the price🔥🔥🥳🥳
