To be honest its offroad capabilities are quite simmilar to most real life SUV's (maybe exept the lack of power) Still I think that even in that price point you can get a better crawler/offroad vehicle lol
If you compare these with a toy grade RC car (e.g. Rastar), then I don't think you can complain too much. It has decent scale realism, it has a transmitter with proportional controls and it can be used to a limited extent outdoors. That in itself is a miracle in this price range.
@@DoURC The MN82 does seem like a decent product for the money and also has a more interesting body with a chassis that offers better opportunities for customisation.
@@DoURC I have an MN86, and while it's fairly decent in some regards, it is wildly under powered. When I tried some light crawling with it, the little 260 motor acted pretty much like the LDRC did in your video. It's better now with a WPL two speed and 370 motor in it, but still no crawler by any means. These days the MN is little more than a shelf queen, just like my upgraded WPLs are, more or less replaced by better, small scale stuff like the UTB18, SCX24, FCX24, CR18P, FMS Jimny (not a crawler, but still awesome), and of course performance oriented 10th scale rigs. :)
@pmilitary047 I'm sure you could, but you'd probably be better just getting something else or using the body on something else. Its not something I want to upgrade tbh as its just not very good. 👍
3:38 That noise is the PWM whine of the ESC. Its frequency determines the pitch of the whining, which in turn has some influence on how loud it is. Certain ESC + motor combinations can make more unsavory noises than others of course.
To me it looks so funny seeing a compact suv actually offroading 😂 maybe with loads of power it would be fun to test on dirt ramps and stuff and just jump it until destruction. Also I didn't realise you're almost at 50k 💯 growing fast (:
Lol "ship horn" sounds about right 😄 It seems this one is geared towards the younger crowd or someone that wants a working mini version of their actual car. Good review 👍
Thanks very much 👍 Yeah, it's a shame it's not better tbh, as the Unimog they did was soooo much better. Hopefully their next release will be better. 👍
@DoURC yeah I'm pretty happy with the 1/18 drift car they put out not too long ago as well. Outstanding value for the money and only needs a gyro upgrade to smooth it out 👍
Yeah it's cheap enough you could upgrade it. It's got a 280 motor in it. 👍 Tbh I'd just buy something better. The MN82 is only like $5 more and much better out the box. 👍
You probably seen Trasped 4Runner 1/24. The body and interior look great. But the videos I’ve seen. I think this performs better.. I see it at banggood.
Yeah there's lots of cheap cheap rigs that look decent but aren't great. You can have fun with cheap rigs, but the danger is judging the whole hobby by the cheap stuff, whereas in reality it's like the difference between a cheap toy and a proper hobby grade RC. Can be night and day differences. 👍
Shame it's so awful really because it looks really good.im sure you can make it much better Rob.great stuff as usual mate ..quick Q. Any news on a date for SST this year yet that you know mate?
Yeah it's a shame, tbh I don't see the point putting any effort into it. It's just one of those duff rigs to gather dust! 🤣 SST, there is the Pay & Play on 28th April. The main event is 7th to 8th September I believe. 👍
Australia watching. This complete vehicle costs the same as one pair of 1/10 proline or axial wheels and tires. That’s two wheels and two tires. I can see it’s a rubbish truck with no performance but I do wonder what you expected for $90 Australian. It’s something to chase the cat with and pretty good at it I imagine with the ships horn.
🤣 That would be quite funny tbf! Yeah I know it's cheap, but tbf a WPL C24 is better for $25, or an MN82 is much better for $50. If you just used it as a toy or on road car, then yeah it's better than what you could buy in a shop. It's still the worst RC I own though! 🤣👍😁
For its price (or less) you can get WPL stuff that performs well out of the box, or MN's like MN82, MN D90 or 99S, or the unpopular-ish but great performing FY-003. This LDRC just have no excuse to perform like this for the price if compared to other competitors.... Buuut then again can't expect bangers to always be output from a company.
For the answer of 7:00 i think in my opnion, this car is made of to be looking real, drive real, response like real car on road , other than that, nothing it can do
Yeah I can understand that, but even there isn't not quite cutting it. Straight axle on the rear, no oil filled shocks etc. To me it's more just something to drive on a hard surface like an RC car, not a crawler. If they hasn't listed it saying a out it's offroad capabilities I wouldn't have an issue with it. Sometimes you do get what you pay for! 🤣👍
Now I know which RC to get for people that I hate. My Furitek Katana arrived today. The thing looks quite nice. Very detailed oriented and a balance of scale and performance.
🤣🤣🤣 Brutal! 🤣👍 Ah cool, I've just got the Hobbyplus CR18 Evo Pro, will be doing a video on that soon. The Katana does look good. You ran it much yet? 👍
Id love to get one or just the body and mod it on another frame from my collection is what i might do when payday hits ive done it alot putting bodys from one to others and modding the body out i have 18 different rc cars/trucks but there all for show except for 3 that i play with
Yeah it's cheap enough to use the body on something else. Just a shame it's not better. For like $5 you can get the MN82 which still isn't great, but much better than this imo. 👍
🤣 Did you watch the video? It couldn't even manage the easiest of obstacles! I've got WPL's, MN etc and they're all better. I like LDRC's other stuff, but this is just rubbish sorry. 👍
To be honest its offroad capabilities are quite simmilar to most real life SUV's (maybe exept the lack of power)

Yeah, it's a shame as the previous rigs from LDRC have been better. The MN82 is about the same price and its much better. 👍
Hahaha

3:36 Ships ahoy mate
🤣🤣🤣 Land ahoy!
@@DoURC Could you do an upgrade on this to improve it for offroading. Id love to see it get a much needed upgrade.
@pmilitary047 I'm sure you could, but you'd probably be better just getting something else or using the body on something else. Its not something I want to upgrade tbh as its just not very good. 👍
That motor test and ship horn sound made me laugh out loud, that was too funny. Thanks for making my day 😅
🤣🤣🤣 You're welcome. When I heard it I was like, oh, drop the anchor and hoist the sails! 🤣🤦

Just call it the boat, problem solved! 🤣👍
the MN82 sounds like the Stuka death siren lol .

I was hoping it would be better tbh, but unfortunately not.

@@DoURC missed the turning and accidentally put on big tyred steels! 🤣🤣 Yeah shame it didn't perform but you had some fun filming it surely (:
@firewaffle1 🤣 Yeah, shiny steelies at that too! Can never have too much bling on the school run! 🤣

I'd drop a different controller/esc I to the thing, it looks good enough, what motor is it running?

Tbh I'd just buy something better. The MN82 is only like $5 more and much better out the box. 👍
Bro check the ldrc 1899 its comes with a R34 body and its looks so cool ❤
Yeah it does look good. Not sure LDRC will like me anymore now though! 🤣😬
@@DoURC 🤣🤣🤣
Remove the body and plant it on a real 1/14 ish rc crawler might work in another more solid platform
Yeah it's cheap enough if you just wanted the body for a project. I'm more a Land Rover or Toyota man tbh. 👍
@@DoURC do it and you will have a more solid scale rig ✌️

The Katana does look good. You ran it much yet? 👍
@@DoURC I hate to say it, but it’s so much better than the LC80. Even stock it climbs better.
Great video =] =)
Thanks very much 👍
Can the wheels be fitted with modified wheels or larger tires?
Probably, they're like WPL though, don't have normal hex and use screws for the wheels. 👍
Have you test the ldr/c ld1297 (the Mitsubishi Pajero)?
Not yet, but I have it and will be doing a video on it soon. 👍
@@DoURC if it is possible, on your video let us know the possibilities of upgrades.
Maybe with some serious upgrades it can be better
Maybe, but then you could just buy something better anyway. 👍
@@DoURCtrue
Vraiment top 🔝 top 😊
Thanks very much 👍😁
It's just like a real life car, this car is a good use as a everyday service only 😀
I'm sure the real life version would have more torque though! 🤣👍
@@DoURC indeed for sure haha
In this procepoint you're better getting mn or wpl models
Yeah, the MN82 is much better. 👍

I think it's quite obvious it's not a crawler, toy grade RCs are swamping the market
Yeah, this is quite possibly one of the worst I've tried! 😬
It looks cool though 👍🏾
Yeah it does look cool! 🤣👍
Nah, its not bad. You're probably used to 1/10 cars and you give it overly hard tasks.
Remember its scale also.
Does sound a bit loud though.
🤣 Did you watch the video? It couldn't even manage the easiest of obstacles! I've got WPL's, MN etc and they're all better. I like LDRC's other stuff, but this is just rubbish sorry. 👍
LOL it's a soccer mom car. A grocery getter. A crossover SUV for a bored suburbanite mom🤭
I get that, but their listing says about offroad adventures, bit hard to do that when it can't actually drive offroad! 🤣
Sounds like a blender.
🤣 Should've probably thrown it in one! 🤣😬
Norbert Points
🤔❓️
All this for only 45dollars? Wow
It's better than a toy shop purchase, but still not great. You can get a WPL C24 or MN82 for less which are both better. 👍
@DoURC which scale are they
@@iamhugry 1/16, so tiny bit smaller than this. 👍
Got reviews of them in my Reviews playlist. 👍
