Ok here's my entry lol. I just got into RC this summer for real. I have a WPL-E1 (Such a fun slow couch crawler), then I had an MJX 14209, loved that. Moved onto a Losi Hammer Rey which I sold and have found my Zen. A TRX-4 Defender. I'm way into the slow crawl and tiny scale accessories. Based on the reviews I have seen of this truck I intend on buying one for the two kids who will be coming over. One is my grandson and the other is a wife's friends child. This looks just right for them. Cheap and tough and if it dies a kid-astrophic death so be it. What I am trying to avoid are the over powered wheelie monsters that kids can't steer due to front end lift. This looks pretty planted and would be great for them both.
I got this exact one on FB Marketplace for $32 plus $5 shipping. Best $40 I've ever spent! Thing takes a BEATING even at a skate park. And it does awesome and consistent front flips! RC is fun for me because it's different from videogames. And as a 19 year old, "go play outside" has been the big thing in my ear. So RC is awesome. I've been having a blast just driving and trying new stunts and drifts!
My son is 6 years old and I'm excited to get him into it. I have fond memories of playing with my Nikko Black Thunder RC truck in the early 90's. I recall a toy-store grade buggy I had in the late 80's and enjoyed that as well.
This would make a great birthday gift for my son, we have been building our crawlers as of late and my son who is disabled loves the time we spend building and driving our rc great video and review
I feel the speed is good for young kids and takes a beating, the water test was a bonus I would be afraid of testing myself. I’ve owned nitro cars, way too fast for beginners
Hi I'm a new subscriber and what I did recently in the rc hobby was taking a couple of my rc cars the get repaired and upgraded. I'll have a video on the upgrades once there finished.
Looks pretty sweet. I am building a Dromida SC4.18 and a wltoys a969 1/18 Short course trucks myself. I have the brushless DT4.18 and the MT4.18 but I want to build a little track at my camp for racing them. I have the bezgar pxtoys one also. And It looks like the Himoto Tyrono or Maverick ionSC is in my near future. I may have a problem. Still looking for a duratrax vendetta and maybe one day I will spend the money on the Latraxx prerunner or better yet the Team Associated SC18. The brushless hsp "caribe" looks pretty sweet. I have a VRX 1/18 chassis on order to make the Dart beetle. keeps me out of trouble. all 1/18 for me!
Thank you so much for this video. I've been out of the r/c cars for a while I usually went with Traxxas however I wanted a good r/c car to get my 7 year old started in them and this video was a great review. I feel way better about my son's birthday now! Can't wait to get him to the Traxxas level
Some good info to add for the watchers is that deans plugs are rated for 7.4 volts and if you use a 3 cell Lipo it may burn up the plug and or electronics.
I don't think you understand how a current circuit works lol, I mean no offense. When you more up in volts its less amps, amps is what burn up things. A plug will never just burn up lol. Why do you think your house breakers run 20amps on 120v lol. The only thing that can pull more amps will be the motor from the ESC. ESC will not draw more amps if you don't have a BEC which you won't on these cheap guys the servo isn't drawing more amps. You know the KV/Turns of these motors, 3s is fine lol
Loved to know there’s a budget option. I had a Team Associated Buggy but lost it in a flood. This looks like something I could attach a GoPro to for fun. 😅
Do you recommend running adapters for the dean's connectors? I got my son an Mjx hyper go with the proprietary battery, but I'm not sure what all you need for adapters in the car as well as charging. It would you end up needing to get a different charger as well? Thanks for the great, objective RC info. Just starting to get into the hobby and my kid is loving it.
Nice little truck maybe some mods on it would probly make it better. Im excited about modding little rc trucks and just make em faster and better for other rc intusiast. I just got my Traxxas stolen so im pretty much modding all my friends rc or fixing them right now. Great video by the way.
They don't sell a lot of 2s 850MAH batteries with Deans. So this is what you need to do. Buy the batteries in the first link. And then buy the adapters in the 2nd link. these batteries will have a Higher C Discharge and will put out some extra power! Batteries: amzn.to/3Z813mU Adapters: amzn.to/4dLnpig
Went to an RC racetrack last week with my dad's RC car and was looking to buy one myself in the near future. Maybe also buy one for my girlfriend who went with me so we could race. Do you have a link for the Arma Granite you're talking about? Thanks!
Might I ask your opinion on the 18859E vs this one? I went on Amazon and saw them both and was curious as to which was better or newer? I did find this one had the water resistant ESC, is the other also water resistant?
If the battery’s has a different plug, than you need to solder on the correct one. But you need to make sure the esc can handle the battery pack. Cell wise
@@WickedRemoteControl It has the same plug. I needed to be more specific. Now it has a ton of torque and spins out. i was wonder if there are any tires or suspension upgrades I could modify? Thanks for your response.
I miss RCing when I was kid. I recently bought this same RC car and love it. But..... My 2 year old toddler took it from me 🫤. If you still have it, sent it my way please 😂
Bonjour moi j'ai le Granite Grom et c'est le pire que j'ai jamais eu il est toujours en panne je crois que le petit camion de ta vidéo est 2 fois meilleur que le Grom. ?

Awesome! That’s a good deal
I’ve had mine for a couple years, beat the crap out of it, and never broke a single thing.
Awesome!!!
My Rc car keeps braking and now it’s in the trash :(
My son is 6 years old and I'm excited to get him into it. I have fond memories of playing with my Nikko Black Thunder RC truck in the early 90's. I recall a toy-store grade buggy I had in the late 80's and enjoyed that as well.
That’s awesome! A great Bobby for any kid to get into! It also teaches some basic mechanical skills. Great for kids!
Looks like a fun one for my littler kids who aren’t ready for higher speeds just yet.
This would make a great birthday gift for my son, we have been building our crawlers as of late and my son who is disabled loves the time we spend building and driving our rc great video and review
That’s awesome! RC is a great hobby!
Looks fun.. I'm sure you'll find someone that will love it !!
Hopefully!
I feel the speed is good for young kids and takes a beating, the water test was a bonus I would be afraid of testing myself. I’ve owned nitro cars, way too fast for beginners
Haha the rain was a nice surprise. The car still works to this day.
i just purchased this i love the review my first rc
Awesome!!!

Awesome! Repairing is always fun!
Nice! Looks fun for its size and durable of course! Really liking the 4x4 recently.
Awesome! Yes, it was quite durable

So many things to buy!
I mostly fly RC planes, but I do love RC cars. I’ve had that one twice already and I love it!
Awesome! Yes it was a lot of fun!

Hey that’s awesome! Great to get kids into the hobby!
I've had a Temu car for a couple of years and like it.
Nice!

Awesome car my son would love it ❤

Rc hare so fun me a was a lumberjack a long time ago, and he broke my back and he switch rc to shainsaw ...Arrma to Huskavarna 😅
That's nice, I would love this. I am new to RC, just getting my Tamiya lunchbox.
Awesome! Tamiyas are a lot of fun!
great content!
I just got a HyperGo. I've spent $1000s in my head already!
It’s a dangerous hobby on the wallet!
Looks like a sweet basher for a small area, have to really look 👀 to find somewhere to bash the Mojave 4s😮!!
Haha indeed!

Thanks for the great, objective RC info. Just starting to get into the hobby and my kid is loving it.
Adapters are totally fine! I run the in a lot of my cars so I can easily go from Traxxas to the Arrma cars without buying more battery’s.
This looks fun and I’ve been watching you for a while this is prob my fav from you thanks bye
That’s awesome to hear! I’ll keep that in mind!
Wooo. Nice video. 👍always on the way inn. Keep up the great content😊
Thanks! I’ll try!
I’ve been looking for a fast Rc that can go off road nice video ❤
Also trying to find one that I can take to trips
Awesome! Thanks!
Nice little truck maybe some mods on it would probly make it better. Im excited about modding little rc trucks and just make em faster and better for other rc intusiast. I just got my Traxxas stolen so im pretty much modding all my friends rc or fixing them right now. Great video by the way.
Thanks I appreciate it! A friend who knows how to fix Rc cars is a good friend!
Thinking about getting this, thanks for the detailed review. God bless. Jesus loves you!
You to! Thanks!
I just bought this, it’s arriving in a couple days for my 5yo. His Target Bigfoot broke.
Nice!!!
Looks pretty good.
Agreed!
Can you suggest a better deans connector battery for this exact RC car?? Thank you!
They don't sell a lot of 2s 850MAH batteries with Deans. So this is what you need to do. Buy the batteries in the first link. And then buy the adapters in the 2nd link. these batteries will have a Higher C Discharge and will put out some extra power!

It’s like buying a Honda 300
Built to last
😂😂😂
Might I ask your opinion on the 18859E vs this one?
I went on Amazon and saw them both and was curious as to which was better or newer? I did find this one had the water resistant ESC, is the other also water resistant?
To be honest I think they are the same car with a different body
@@WickedRemoteControl Thank you!
No problem!
Got it on sale for 66 bucks, love it so far
EPIC!
My kids is getting this for birthday hope it holds up
Nice!
I upgraded the battery what should I do to translate that power to the ground now?
If the battery’s has a different plug, than you need to solder on the correct one. But you need to make sure the esc can handle the battery pack. Cell wise

Hha you’re gonna have to get one for Christmas!
I don't know if I missed it but did you run it on 3s??
Unfortunately not. I don’t have a 3s pack that small
Why not just change the terminal connections if they are an issue
You could
Uf i win thank you you man i ser your vídeos from spain every Day
That’s awesome! I’m on the process of picking the winner now!
@@WickedRemoteControlWell, remember me at the time to pick one. Thank you bro
i have one i am 57 i love rc car i had gas rc car my first car a turbo bandit
Nice!
yeah yeah yeah
H8 ive got a smaller rc car and its fun
Nice!
How many people can race together with this model? I got six kids.
That should not be a problem. It’s 2.4ghz so in theory you could have hundreds of people.
How’s the part support on that thing?
There is actually a ton up “upgraded” aluminum parts you can get right now.
Bonjour moi j'ai le Granite Grom et c'est le pire que j'ai jamais eu il est toujours en panne je crois que le petit camion de ta vidéo est 2 fois meilleur que le Grom. ?
It could be!
I wanted a rc car but I couldn’t get one because there to expensive so hope I win
Maybe so!
Hi

When you need parts, you just buy another.
