That is very nice that you have it before everyone ! Thanks for the review :)
Oh man, I've been waiting for Lego to release planetary final drives for ages!
It would be great to see the competition 42099 vs. 9398
Agreed
Might rebuild 9398 and give you such a video if there will be enough demand!
@@ZEROBRICKS I'd absolutely love this! This set seems to be the direct successor with the new powered up system instead of pf.
Also the suspension is pretty different, I'd like to see how they stand up over obstacles.
I’m very keen on this comparison!

At first I was excited to see a “modified Toyota”. But after watching your review the performance is more in line with a jeep. Great little review man!
Mehr Bodenfreiheit, Starrachsen (Portalachsen?), Öldruckstoßdämpfer, langsamere, stärkere Untersetzung, Differentialsperren/ keine Diffs, Adapter um anständige Elektrik einzubauen (2,4GHz- Empfänger, 540er- Motor, Fahrregler, Servo, 2s LiPo- Akku) und 2,4GHz- Sender und oben genannte elektrische Bauteile müssen dabei sein
Great review. I really appreciate the thorough testing. This set combines my 2 loves of MRC Tamiya and Lego. Fantastic. I will definitely be on the look out for this. Thanks for the review.
Looks fun, just wish it had a bit more power and speed.. that's the only issue i have with these..
Well in the lego World this speed and Power is high but yes could be a bit higher
This is what I get for my birthday.
Really looking forward to!
Amazing set and i will definitely buy it 👍🏻
nice video mate!!
thanks for the indepth comparrison of the motor speeds!
Swap the drive gears and it can climb ridiculous angles until it rolls back, at expense of speed. Also increase ride height by moving the shocks one stud closer to the center, drawback is narrower wheel base. It makes functionality 9/10
well it should come as either changeable gears or better geared from the box for the price, as stock it climbs worse than the 9398 offroader and that one has weak m motors change that for l motors or aftermarket ones and you better off with that....
*earliest review ever!* for sure it performs better than the older crawler, but was it necessary to gear up the already fast new xls? can't wait for some heavy modification!
Not at all i had old on with l motors and i think that it was stronger
@@call___me__hero1118 i'm 101% sure it won't 😬
Less stickers and more power and speed would be better.
This model is many times faster than heavy off road lego vehicles, you are correct in saying that it needs more torque.
Yeah exactly it would be much more better with more power and speed
Well in the lego World this speed and Power is high but yes could be a bit higher
Speed, no. Crawlers are high torque and often slow vehicles.
@@astrowx447 yea but that thing isn't a crawler, maybe it can drive over a coin but nothing thats higher..
I like this new set for its size compared to my 41999, but I still much rather prefer power functions
Looks like one of my RC trucks, but with Legos. Crazy! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Pro-line Racing makes 1.9" rim size R/C rock crawler tires that fit on the rims. I bought some knock offs on Amazon. 4.7" tall, look wicked cool on the 42099! Have not run it with new tires as I'm about to tear down and build MOC's I saw on Rebrickable before I play. I posted photos on Rebrickable forum, search for Non Lego Tires.
Really interesting video, I learn so much thks
Many question left not disclosured : are you going to compare motors not only by speed, but also torque? Could you test these motors with train/batmobile smart hub and train remote? Almost nothing about new wheel hubs, except fact that it is 1:5.5 reduction.....you have a luck and lot of time to do it better, man...before embargo date will come and all info we want, will be disclosed by other reviewers 🤷🏻♂️ get hype, don't loose privilege
I did indeed test motors, but the hub limits their current some 600mA before cutting them off, so I couldn't fully test their performance.
Zerobricks could this be a software limit?
@@rm8brickgarage I think it's hardware limit, but can't be sure until we get the app. I will do a follow up video when control + app is released
О, Егор)) Здрасьте)
сколько стоить будет?
you should actually put the pins that hold the wirres outside the body not inside, placing the pins outside helps taking the battery out without removing the bodywork
Da wird sich der Held freuen😂
Und nicht nur der.
I got a challenge for you if you can do a comparison of the PU parts on this build with PF and see which one is better in climbing speed outdoor etc. I think it would be really interesting to see them compete and find out which is better overall awesome review no clue how you got it so early im really hoping the price is under $200 but i doubt it
You were right 3 years ago it's not under 200 dollars waay more than that :D
They finally have those tires in lego sets. Best lego technic model.👍
They had those tires before in 42070 and 42054
It is still nice to have another set with those tires
i can't wait for this goldmine of pieces!😝
This isn't goldmine, it's less than 1000 pieces and a few motors and battery box. I think car transporter is more worth, more than 2000 pieces
@@gkbrickworks7924 dude are you serious?!? we probably think on different lenghtwaves, for sure we have different targets...
I wouldn't call a 200+$ set goldmine. It maybe has a few new pieces and motors but controlling this set with app is hard (if you have EV3 and control it with an app, you would know). Even if car transporter has no motors, I think it's worth it, 2000+ pieces for 150$
@@gkbrickworks7924 so little ninjago sets are better than car transporter because they gave you hundreds of awesome pieces for 20€? what's the point of your debate? and the prices you said are more like in £, for sure not in € nor in $...the point is what you need, car transporter, just like the previous, the mack, is supercool with possibly even cooler b model (rare thing nowadays) but i won't (i can't) buy it even if i like it a lot..the offroader has the same value of a bricklink order for me!
@@gkbrickworks7924 you also mentioned mindstorms, that you belong it seems..how many pieces for 3/400€? is there a reason?
Are you really allowed ti do that ?!
(It's cool btw)
Cooles Teil aber ich würde die Übersetzung und die Bodenfreiheit ändern. SO ein Teil muss nicht schnell sein das muss klettern und ich würde noch einen 4x4 Lenkung einbauen
Und Starrachsen fehlen, sowie anständige motoren
Good looks, but the underwhelming torque and speed are the deal breakers for me.
not the price for what you get too? I'd feel much more comfortable if the price was closer to 100 bucks...
Looks like it could do with a 'drag bumper' - connected to the front, and sweeping underneath the centre of the chasis, to protect the forward and underside from scrapes and block damages.
That would give the car even less ground clearance
Labster Industries I was thinking a strip of non-Lego plastic about 2mm thick. It's non canon, but would assist at high speeds in protecting the more expensive parts.
Thanks for your rewiev, am i wrong or the new xl motor has much less torque than the old one? Looking to your vertical test, the crawler stops at a ridicoulous incline... Hope its a problem of gearing... What do you think about?
Thanks.
I think its also important that the motors are not connected directly to the wheels and one motor has to power two wheels over those many gears. It's very inefficient and causes the motor to produce more power that than the wheels will get. Also the weight of the Model and the hub has to be considered when talking about the slope angle. And don't forget the Clutch gear built inside.
@@robin_iv hi robin, everything you wrote is correct except, maybe i'm wrong, the cloutch gear inside the transmission, i didn't see it. I think the friction generated by the transmission is the same of the old rock crawler.
I think the 1:2,77 final gear ratio, is the main issue. If new xl has an higer rpm, the torque is for sure lower than the old one. Looking at the comparison of the two xl version, I assume that the speed is doubled in the new one, making this final gear ratio similar to a 1:5,5 with the old PF xl.
That's why the crawler is stalling so easily. Probably, with a 3:1 gear ratio, this thing can became a serious climber.
sicuramente avrebbe avuto maggior resa se fossero direttamente attaccati ciascuno al proprio differenziale senza altre rapportature di mezzo, vista la velocità già alta..curioso di testare i nuovi pezzi con buggy motors e buwizz, non sto nella pelle 😝
@@robin_iv a clutch into the motor, especially xls, would mean killing it 😬
@@bossolo7582 Sorry. You misunderstood me. I meant inside the vehicle. There is a new part, the linear clutch gear which they built in the car. Not inside the motor. This would make of course no sense.
ruclips.net/video/YeZLX1sPBsg/видео.html here is the vehicle explained and they also show the new parts. Including the new linear clutch.
Wait, range in sunlight is actually good? By how many meters? Awesome review, better than I expected!
Awesome vid man, looks like a fun set. 👍🏼
These new joints look a lot sturdier then the previous joint. One problem with the motorized Porsche was the joints breaking
Satisfying to see
i guess we will see a new Bodywork competition like at 9398
I think I'll buy it mainly because of the new cv joint and wheel hub
Bricklink.com
I already purchased the cv joints on bricklink and didn't buy the set :D
@@Timoundryan www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?S=42099-1
Finally they updated the power functions motors
I don't know how you get one, but really good review!
Wal-mart.com has them.
Hard to believe Lego still doesn’t have a rechargeable battery pack. WTF?! I am not buying this until then. I do NOT want to put stupid AA batteries in on a regular basis. Come on LEGO! They say they are concerned about the environment, yet are a good 20 years behind when it comes to electrical.
Panasonic brand Eneloop low self-discharge NiMh AA cells could probably give better performance than the alkaline ones they used. Best rechargeable batteries I have found.
Great review! Thanks! :-)
It looks great for sure.
I am not good at English, but I always support your channel!^^
Good job and nice review
Very cool video :)
For $50 less a could get a 35mph radio controlled car with more ground clearance and torque although it isn’t a model I can build and learn from I can take it completely apart with proper gearing and steering performances
Given how much Lego charges for their motorized technic models, I was really hoping for an improvement with these new electronic systems. However, it looks just as weak as the older motors......
this needs proper reduction gears and way more aggressive tyres. it would be much more capable if it had solid axles
What a disappointment! So slow, and cannot climb. And for that price? I'm having more fun with my cheap 42095 modified with a SBrick.
very cool I'll be getting this 8-)
Good review. Thank you.
Awsome!
Great review 👍, how did you get this set 😁
Stole it from Billund maybe.
@@sitsia3808 www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?S=42099-1
Good video!
Don't like the power cut-off while outdoor drivin. Could be annoying when you're playin with the car. Is it possible to add front, roof and rear light to the unit? Is there a free output? And I need adapter plugs? Superb Video BTW. Thank you. I think I'm waitin with the buy till price drops ...
I'm a little disappointed by that ground clearance and low gear ratio. Sure the gearing can be upgraded but do they do bigger tires than that? Maybe the old school Technic airless tires.
Great review. Does the set come with a PU controller or there is only the app to use with?
Only app for now
Nice intro dude.
Ich glaube das Lego Technic schön langsam mit dem Preis übertreibt. Was ist besonders an dem Modell??? 220 Euro und das ist nichtmal eine Fernbedinung dabei. Finde es einfach nur unverschämt. Sorry.
How did you get the set so early?!!! Great review btw
New Sub! Thanks for a great video detailing the build and play factor. I’m pretty sure I’d forego the Stranger Things set to get this one.
Nice carrr
Cool review!
Great review but has very disappointing performance for the price witch for us canadians is $350. I own the original crawler and it's great.
I may plan on getting this set. A question about the control+ - you could now make customized control profiles in the Powered Up app, correct?
I think so, but that app is very hard to use.
Very nice vid.
waiting !!!! czekam!!! ;)
The app is in the play store.
Thanx for great video.
be great if you could fit a regular RC body on top or use a RC remote radio
Great review
I just got this for christmas
I heard this was a new color? In the video it seems standard orange, but I was under the impression it was flame yellow/what the bionicle community refers to as "keetorange"
Never mind, I see now it said new yellow/orange color lol
How come this 1000 piece truck costs $250 if 4000 piece crane (42082) costs $300? It doesn't add up.
Nice job
cant wait to make one 2wd with my buggy motors.
Why not 4wd with one buggy motor for each axle?
Would you be so kind and post parts list(s) from instructions? :)
I cant wait for instructions, maybe I can build it from my parts with a few mods.
XL motors are faster!!!! right on
2:20 Seriously?! Still AA batteries?! Smh... Lego, wake up! It's 20 freakin' 19 everyone has at least one spare microUSB charger at home...
yeah, we need the rechargeable system (i did my own for the classic pf).
But you can't use your usb charger because this charger got 5v (1cell lithium (up to 4.2v)) and you need 9v or even 12v. So you have to use 2-3 lithium cells and if you got more than one the charger needs a balancer. But if they release it, they made it to expensive or bad (they also released a rechargable option for the pf system which hosts only 800mah)
Well I have to admit that I have very basic knowledge about electronics, but reading the BuWizz specs it seems doable to me.
Kree Larson otoh, AA batteries will still exist in 10 years. Lego is something you keep for a long time, not something to throw out after 3 years. Do you still have some camera from the early 2000s? I bet the battery is dead by now and it's impossible to get a replacement now. You might not cry about some old 6mpix camera but if that was a cherished lego set...
For anything long lived proprietary rechargeable batteries aren't a good choice imo.
well you can buy nimh batteries which are decent for powering the piece.
Also they are fully replaceable which is great.
I was thinking to use my RC's LiPos but are too exagerate. Probaly the NiMh fixing it under the front support or elsewhere
June 30 it revewed and testing
How much did it cost it? Cause i want to buy 1
Will the wheels get scratched up if I drive it outside?
Hi I recently built this and it doesn't go as fast as yours. Do you have any ideas on how to sort this out
Bad batteries, different gearing?
Magnifique
I just finished building this amzazing set but I found that only 3 of the 4 wheels spinning properly. The other one just refused to spin with the opposite one. I suspect the differential was the problem but couldn't see why. Can anyone help please?
Yes, probably a flipped diff.
@@ZEROBRICKS Fixed by rebuilding it. Thanks!
Ryan Li i have the same problem how did you solve it?
Those motors look a bit like EV3
nice review
look like a decent model but the price and the stickers are crazy!
Why don't you include a price suggestion instead nothing?
Is is included, at the start of the video.
Where I Can Buy It ya? From Indonesia Totally Very Interested and Awesome Incredible
You need no Handy, it works with Lego 88010 RC Control, see: Technicmaster0 or Pybricks RUclips Channel
Guess it fell off the back of a truck.
@2:30 are you saying Lego has released an entirely new battery line not just the good old AAA or AA? If so I aint touching this!
do the new motors work with the buwizz battery?
cool friend😁
Would you recommend bigger wheels for more ground clearance?
There are no bigger wheels
I like it but I’m concerned about it,it might be fragile and it’s not waterproof and it can get stuck it’s not same thing as the real rc cars
Oof.. that thing has NO power. How did you get it btw?
How did u connect to it without the App?
Hmm. Let’s see. Spend ~$250 USD on something that goes 3 mph and can’t climb a flat ramp at 25 degrees and has plastics gearing. Or spend same on a hobby-grade crawler than will go 15 mph max and can climb 60+ degree ramp and has metal parts? Lol.
is that usa?
Wish they showed it drift
How much money does it cost
Does the new XL have the same torque as the old one?
No, it seems geared less
Mine is very easy to stall..like something slip very easy..have no power to climb...so back to axial rc 😁
Thank you for the good review!
But I see no reason to buy the car, even considering the new parts. Apart from them this is actually a pretty basic crawler, that we have seen among MOCs.
