Win my XRT RC Car - Here raffall.com/342003/enter-raffle-to-win-kevin-talbots-xrt-rc-car-hosted-by-kevin-talbot (everyone can have 1 free ticket, see terms)
Need to come to your shop before you move kev. You probably don't remember me at all. Talking like 2008 with Natalie but thanks for the earlier years and thanks for getting me back into RC and boys toys 🙏🏽 hope monster truck nationals went well ! can't wait to see more footage ❤️
Im just getting into the hobby. Bought a hypergo for my son and then saw how cool his was and bought myself a brushless version. Its has been EXTREMELY tough. I have beaten it and crashed it and jumped it and its taken it all. Only little things here and there have broken (mostly cosmetic). I did notice the differential seemed like it was starting to have issues and email their customer service and they sent me a upgraded replacement and some additional upgraded parts free of charge. I would definitely recommend buying one as a beginners car and also highly recommend upgrading to 3S battery. I keep the controller on the 70% mode and the battery lasts a long time, then if I want to do some speed runs or send it to the moon.... 100% power
hi kevin im a big fann of you and when im sad i go on youtube and watch your channel and everytime im always on it im so excited to watch your vidds and it always make me happy but i want to know what it would be like if you put brushless motor in the wltoys 12428 and reach it 100mph i hope you would do it at some point tho
Kev, even though there are 100’s of videos about this product out there, we will watch your review! We come here for your content, for the fun of it… keep doing what you do mate 🤟🏻
I can personally attest to these HyperGo cars. Although I've never owned one, I came across one when at a local park. The fam and I was running an Outcast 4S, Vorteks 3S and Granite 3S on the grass. We saw some random kids flying through the same grass with a 1/16th HyperGo car. I was impressed with how fast that little RC was.
the 1/16 hypergo is really something worth every penny spend...i bash mine like theres no tomorrow,,,,almost everyday for the last 3 months of total bashing and carnage with 3s 2200 100c lipo....the kit handles it all like a champ....and yesterday i finally manage to strip the rear bevel gear...so i guess its time to upgrade it to the better metal quality instead of the original molten metal casting parts.
Lovely to have seen Claire and Ian feature albeit I don't know how long ago the footage was recorded. Hope they managed to find a new home and will be back on RUclips again sometime soon.
I got the hyper go truck for my 5 year old son, his grand parents bought him some crappy batman monster truck and I was like "nah he needs a decent beginner RC" :p Only problem is I might have to fit a gyro, because offroad, on gravel or sand, it just spins around in a circle and he gets a bit frustrated with it, plus the front toe out (as it came) caused twitchy steering with massive understeer at speed, so that has to change. People complain about the battery too, but I think it's great for a beginner.
Just ordered the hyper go as my first rc car, as a fpv drone guy living in the uk it collects dust more than flys so I need some kind of winter rc hobby so I think by the look of it this one shall get me through the cold wind and rain lol
Just bought my1st decent RC car, I am like a 8yr old kid with 42 years experience, my wife is laughing at me enjoying myself. so much fun... FINALLY I have one
To be honest I just come back to RC I bought this model 16208 it’s fantastic tough little truck parts are cheap it’s my mini mini Xmaxx I absolutely love it big smile for so little money
Hello Kevin, your videos are incredible, a real joy, I am inspired by them for my rc channel but I don't even have 1% of your talent. thank you for everything you bring to the rc
Heya mate can you recommend upgraded shocks for the mjx 16208. Like u say the standard ones are really soft and chassis slap way to easily. Thanks mate
@craigknox8516 I didn't actually replace them just adjusted to fully compress the springs, it helped a lot. Might try replacing the oil but I'm happy with the adjustment atm.
@@GeoffDavis1974ahh rite. Yeah I have done the same screwed the adjuster on the shocks all the way down on the front and back haha. Does feel better but like u say I need to change for thicker oil
I remember when the original .15 trx 4tec and tmaxx came out, and they were the biggest thing out there for hobby play (not competition obviously). Sometimes there is just a product that becomes amazingly successful.
I’ve got two 3s brushless hyper go myself and one for my son. These things are worth every penny, crazy tough, super fast. Almost too much power for a 1/16 scale truck.
They're fun but the servo on mine lasted about 5 days before dying completely. And it's a 5 wire so to change it out you're gonna need a lot of extra stuff
that is one of the problem I concerned. They are good but, parts is the problem. In terms of parts, low end RC brand like FTX, Redcat, and HSP, RGT (in asia) is better
The testing scenes in this video are both fun and detailed! 😄🔍 It’s really informative to see how the RC car performs. Great job and looking forward to more!
i had one of those. put a 3S from amazon in it and it would go nearly 40mph with only a bigger battery. ESC would get ridiculously hot (burn your finger in less than a full second of contact) but never burnt up or melted. completely totaled it doing top speed into a curb as i had converted it to 2wd and could not stop in time. snapped the chassis nearly in half. Lol
Anybody out there with a 16207/208/209/210 I strongly advise to check that your screws are tight, last week end, both my MJX 1/16 lost a screw (different one each) in the direction, these screws are not easy to find (and expensive when you can order them, because of shipping mostly), but I found a full set of the direction parts including the screws for a few dollars and it will give me some spares... I will check every screw before my next session.
That tire testing rig is such a good idea. As I said on a previous video, if you can't keep the tires on the wheels in the shop you might as well stay home and not waste time at the track!
CONGRATULATIONS both this is well Deserved, and i am sure you will get another 500k before long.. its a nice down to earth Channel that we can all connect with
Mini RC is the best imo, can run them anywhere, they are strong due to low weight and throw in the car and go. Cheap batteries too! I’ve learnt skills running a 144010 in the wet, bigger cars seem easy in comparison
That rally car was sick! I’d love to have something like that but I live in the middle of nowhere and only have fields and a rc track so no road rc cars for me. Need that motor on a truck or buggy.
Good day Kev. Why don't just mold your own wheels from silicon? You get loads of different types with different tearing strengths. If you design your own wheel and print it out along with a mold you can easily make your own wheel to your own spesifications or is this not allowed in the speed runs?
Need to come to your shop before you move kev. You probably don't remember me at all but thanks for the earlier years and thanks for getting me back into RC and boys toys 🙏🏽 hope monster truck nationals went wellm can't wait to see more footage ❤️
It's a great rc because it's durable and cheap. The only real weak part is the screws that hold the diffs together. They snap relatively easy. The other week part is the ESC but that can easily be fixed by swapping it out for a Hobbywing 16BL30.
Agreed. That is why I am buying some spare to repair most of the weak points of this little tough car. Plus one of my two hyper go can become a donor car in the future
I got the hypergo, it was super fun! Only problem I found was the steering was super super weak! Upgraded it and it was all good, but the stock one was garbage! and the shocks, not to good either. upgraded a few things now i love it!
Literally just got mine out this morning to have a blast round garden and then your latest vid popped up on it haha. I've got 4 of the MJX hyper go I bought just for a bit of fun trying smaller scale and I've loved em. Managed to get them on some good sale prices from Banggood as well. The monster truck there I paid 67 with some vouchers added and when it was reduced to 80.
i got this and i run it all the time on sand and massive jumps which make it go fuill speed straight into solid metal poles. Only broke after a long time the diffs because they came loose and stripped. If they fix that im sure it would be even more nuts and value.
Kev has to be the worlds best rc reviewer, especially the way he bashes the hell out of those rc cars. I might have to get this if it survives the talbot test.
i think you should continue to do these cars because more people are gonna start with these than not because of the price point. Not everyone can start with a $500 car so i think its important for the community to show these off because i had no idea of banggood before i started watching your videos. Just keep doing it how you are though and instead of doing 1 car per video do 3-4 to keep it interesting,
If he did 3-4 cars per vid, then he'd run out of cars to do vids on. Also think of it from a business stand point. If you make a living off RUclips, why put all your eggs in one basket with one video, when you can stretch them out. You should know this. With 2.38 mil subs, you say keep it interesting? Lol.
@@ubreakitirepairit3569hes talking about not doing bangood videos period so instead of not doing them at all he could lump serveral of their cars together and keep doing them. im not talking about like arma, traxxas, losi or the big guys out there as your right in those cases.
Lmfao Kev this Hass to be the most entertaining video that you’ve posted so far I mean like I do love all the rest of your other videos but this one in particular is pretty damn funny kind of feels like I’m hanging out with the Brose
Would this survive a 3s pack though??? I might just buy this for my friend if it can, he's in love with my 14210 & Holyton... same price I'll give him the option he likes both

Awww grate to see that Kev have some old friends that still look up to him 😢😢😢
greetings from Indonesia kev..🇮🇩
What we really need is the review on the new v3 1/5 scale Xmaxx 🕵️♀️🤷🏻♂️
The best mini monster truck Is the hbx 16889 ( brush AND brushlesss) indestructible
Im just getting into the hobby. Bought a hypergo for my son and then saw how cool his was and bought myself a brushless version. Its has been EXTREMELY tough.

Top tip,forget 70% and trying to squeeze a few more minutes of run time it needs to be on 100% all the time,just buy another battery mate
How long 70% last for?
Idk
I've heard of some people having problems when they use 3s after a while I guess the 70 percent mode could mitigate that
Kevin is the madman the RC hobby always needed. Nothing out there is like a Talbot video. The man is National Treasure in the RC industry.
thanks bro appreciate it!
hi kevin im a big fann of you and when im sad i go on youtube and watch your channel and everytime im always on it im so excited to watch your vidds and it always make me happy but i want to know what it would be like if you put brushless motor in the wltoys 12428 and reach it 100mph i hope you would do it at some point tho
I have the same thoughts! kev is one of the best reviewers to watch!!
100%
I own the black hyper go car
Dang that rally hatch was sick with the nitro. Way cool that the rider on the bike moves as well.
Kev, even though there are 100’s of videos about this product out there, we will watch your review! We come here for your content, for the fun of it… keep doing what you do mate 🤟🏻
appreciate it bro
Hi kev
@@KevinTalbotTV Tbh, why go anywhere else when you have a channel like kevs to enjoy watching. I feel so lucky to have content like kevs to watcn
The hyper go(s) are a blast, especially if one consider the price 👍🏻
Is there a site to buy replacement parts?
I can personally attest to these HyperGo cars. Although I've never owned one, I came across one when at a local park. The fam and I was running an Outcast 4S, Vorteks 3S and Granite 3S on the grass. We saw some random kids flying through the same grass with a 1/16th HyperGo car. I was impressed with how fast that little RC was.
Pls reply which is best.....mjx hypergo 16207 vs 14210 v2
Durability,performance,waterproof
Kevin is the reason I happily own an HBX 16889pro. Now I found another inexpensive, durable rc to purchase.
the 1/16 hypergo is really something worth every penny spend...i bash mine like theres no tomorrow,,,,almost everyday for the last 3 months of total bashing and carnage with 3s 2200 100c lipo....the kit handles it all like a champ....and yesterday i finally manage to strip the rear bevel gear...so i guess its time to upgrade it to the better metal quality instead of the original molten metal casting parts.
Lovely to have seen Claire and Ian feature albeit I don't know how long ago the footage was recorded. Hope they managed to find a new home and will be back on RUclips again sometime soon.
Kev recently gave them a free arrma vorteks, do yeah they doin fine!
Great to see Claire and Ian. Hope to see more of them soon!
Exactly my thoughts!
yep
I got the hyper go truck for my 5 year old son, his grand parents bought him some crappy batman monster truck and I was like "nah he needs a decent beginner RC" :p
Only problem is I might have to fit a gyro, because offroad, on gravel or sand, it just spins around in a circle and he gets a bit frustrated with it, plus the front toe out (as it came) caused twitchy steering with massive understeer at speed, so that has to change. People complain about the battery too, but I think it's great for a beginner.
Dude. You’re really crushing it on the cam in motion. Pretty sure island folk are the gold medal. Are you just using a selfie stick or something?
Would love to see more on the kyosho mad wagon! It looks like a killer truck!
Just ordered the hyper go as my first rc car, as a fpv drone guy living in the uk it collects dust more than flys so I need some kind of winter rc hobby so I think by the look of it this one shall get me through the cold wind and rain lol
Just bought my1st decent RC car, I am like a 8yr old kid with 42 years experience, my wife is laughing at me enjoying myself. so much fun... FINALLY I have one
Great vid Kev. Nice to see Claire and Ian again. Those little RC cars would be a decent option for kids or someone just entering the hobby.
Was it though
Anyone not wanting to spend $400-$1000
To be honest I just come back to RC I bought this model 16208 it’s fantastic tough little truck parts are cheap it’s my mini mini Xmaxx I absolutely love it big smile for so little money
I have one too and photos in my break. When did the tiles break for no reason me and my grandpa fixed it my grandpa is very smart.
Hello Kevin, your videos are incredible, a real joy, I am inspired by them for my rc channel but I don't even have 1% of your talent. thank you for everything you bring to the rc
I just bought one!! Thanks to this video.
First time buying from Banggood - 3 week delivery but it was worth the wait!!!
Thanks
3S lipo kills the standard diffs pretty quick. Suspension needs stiffening and servo needs upgrading. Unlimited fun after that... 😁👍
Heya mate can you recommend upgraded shocks for the mjx 16208. Like u say the standard ones are really soft and chassis slap way to easily. Thanks mate

@@StognaBolognaFPVI have that problem but mine is a 3 wire
@dylanewelch also the diffs aren't up to the power
that is one of the problem I concerned. They are good but, parts is the problem. In terms of parts, low end RC brand like FTX, Redcat, and HSP, RGT (in asia) is better
I dont care whos reviewed what, when. When Kev does it thats the only time I am interested. Thanks again Kev!
So glad you went back to your old Video style with the load shouting and sound effects everywhere, It just makes me smile!!!
That 2 stroke on road is beautiful!
The Brits have the best placed, and most perfectly timed, sound effects. TomlyRC is another great example.
The testing scenes in this video are both fun and detailed! 😄🔍 It’s really informative to see how the RC car performs. Great job and looking forward to more!
They don't don't know I'm sitting in a wheelchair watching you all the time
i had one of those. put a 3S from amazon in it and it would go nearly 40mph with only a bigger battery. ESC would get ridiculously hot (burn your finger in less than a full second of contact) but never burnt up or melted. completely totaled it doing top speed into a curb as i had converted it to 2wd and could not stop in time. snapped the chassis nearly in half. Lol
Thanks for sharing the little cars. The Hyper Go's seem like solid fun no matter how advanced of a driver you are. Great job.
Kev i was thinking of getting a mad wagon and what i needed was an honest reviewer like you to bash it!
Anybody out there with a 16207/208/209/210 I strongly advise to check that your screws are tight, last week end, both my MJX 1/16 lost a screw (different one each) in the direction, these screws are not easy to find (and expensive when you can order them, because of shipping mostly), but I found a full set of the direction parts including the screws for a few dollars and it will give me some spares...

Hey Kevin you should next get the Quanum Vandal 1/10 4WD it’s dirt cheap to! 👍👍👍
Kev videos are fun and crazy to watch as well learning a lot of tips/tricks with lots of Bashing 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
They’re very similar to an AARMA K8S. But way more durable.
Coming from a K8S owner.
14:25 Best bit - fantastic editing
8:30 I love how there’s a ring pop on the ground😂😂😂😂❤❤❤😊😊😊😂😂😂
That tire testing rig is such a good idea. As I said on a previous video, if you can't keep the tires on the wheels in the shop you might as well stay home and not waste time at the track!
I'm impressed that it's not just another HBX 16889A Pro Clone.
What’s the best beginner truck? One that also can be upgraded.
CONGRATULATIONS both this is well Deserved, and i am sure you will get another 500k before long.. its a nice down to earth Channel that we can all connect with
Went to buy one, found multiple reports of people complaining about throttle lag, the car taking half a second or more to respond to throttle inputs.
9:49 that is a chassis BRACE!
What we really need, is a full review of Noah’s mom! 😅
Lol
😂
Keep these comments to yourself and have some respect
👍😋
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Those Hyper Go's are 3s ready. They go 60-70km/h on it!
I have all 3 of the Hyper Go you showed, they are crazy fun on 3s.
ooooo it’s christmas ever day when kev posted
Mini RC is the best imo, can run them anywhere, they are strong due to low weight and throw in the car and go. Cheap batteries too! I’ve learnt skills running a 144010 in the wet, bigger cars seem easy in comparison

Never mind I see one I can buy now.
My 6year old son has had the mjx for a year now and the back diffs have just gone, such good strong cars im ordering the new truck version today 😊
I just got the infraction and man i love it, cool vid Kev!
Epic truck!!
Good day Kev. Why don't just mold your own wheels from silicon? You get loads of different types with different tearing strengths. If you design your own wheel and print it out along with a mold you can easily make your own wheel to your own spesifications or is this not allowed in the speed runs?

I love Kev's british sarcasm in this video of how the thingy isn't a copy of the infraction or xmaxx lol
That Grave Digger Monster Truck Looks so Amazing. I WANT ONE
Picked one of these up back in July and I love it!! Can’t beat it for $150
That drifting in the rain had a string of very nice shots!
How much was your xmax and where did you get it from
There are some cool little entry level cars not bad At all. Always a fun time with you thanks for posting
As someone from TX(USA) idk if I'm more envious of the cars or the rain at this point!!:
Ice hockey pucks are virtually indestructible- they would be worth testing for tyres!!!
Bit heavy but might work, definitely worth trying
It's a great rc because it's durable and cheap. The only real weak part is the screws that hold the diffs together. They snap relatively easy. The other week part is the ESC but that can easily be fixed by swapping it out for a Hobbywing 16BL30.
good job showing more than one RC in one video
So much content in one vid 😊😊😊
Kev, have you looked into 3D printing your wheels/tires? I’ve seen it on other channels. But I’m not sure of the quality.
Long term parts availability is what usually scares me off the banggood specials
Agreed. That is why I am buying some spare to repair most of the weak points of this little tough car. Plus one of my two hyper go can become a donor car in the future
For the price point I am not sure I care about parts. Can part out a broken one for other projects.
Great to see Claire and Ian out playing. Hope they are doing better.
Col lil mini,'s.
I haven't gotten into cars yet but when I had my racing drones I only got a few minutes. On average how long do the basic batteries last? Thanks!
My son has the hyper it is a great RC for the money the only thing we've broke is the rear bumper after installing the wheelie bar
Love these type of reviews, keep them coming Kev! 👍🏻✌🏻
We need more videos like this I love them❤❤❤❤😊😊
We use 1:16 because they can fit in the DUV with the whole family each got one, even the wife😂
I got the hypergo, it was super fun! Only problem I found was the steering was super super weak! Upgraded it and it was all good, but the stock one was garbage! and the shocks, not to good either. upgraded a few things now i love it!
Literally just got mine out this morning to have a blast round garden and then your latest vid popped up on it haha. I've got 4 of the MJX hyper go I bought just for a bit of fun trying smaller scale and I've loved em. Managed to get them on some good sale prices from Banggood as well. The monster truck there I paid 67 with some vouchers added and when it was reduced to 80.
My buddy has one these suck! The diffs will be gone in no time and the shocks are trassh
Andy's rally car is brilliant!
What car would you get for a 5 and 7 year old? They are beginners.
Really great video looking to upgrade soon me and my son and daughter are really taking a liking to RC'ing. Keep up the great work
it's great for a while, until you start noticing the issues and the diffs start stripping out..
i got this and i run it all the time on sand and massive jumps which make it go fuill speed straight into solid metal poles. Only broke after a long time the diffs because they came loose and stripped. If they fix that im sure it would be even more nuts and value.
Kev has to be the worlds best rc reviewer, especially the way he bashes the hell out of those rc cars. I might have to get this if it survives the talbot test.
the jump at 12:16 was so smooth that it looked fake, like something out of a video game with lower end physics!
Kevin what would be in your opinion one of the best chargers for your batteries. Something easy to take the guesswork out for beginners ?
My bet is the recently released b6neo. It's 40 euro and can charge at 200 watt and, rather important, discharge to storage voltage at 24 watt.
This goes 45 km/h right?
Arrma granite grom is an awesome little truck as well
everyone goes home and kev keeps playing in the rain🤣
You should make a segment called the talbot test, where you run the hell out of the car, if it survives it is talbot tested
Love the drop in affects I personally love RC cars
You’ve got some awesome RC’s!
Hey mate just purchased one of these and wondered what would be the first upgrades i should be doing on it?? In australia cheers
What run time are people getting with the little basher using the supplied battery? Are aftermarket batteries available that are compatible with it?
i have that car and it was the best value and speed for an rc car i have got. i recommend!

Would this survive a 3s pack though??? I might just buy this for my friend if it can, he's in love with my 14210 & Holyton... same price I'll give him the option he likes both
Watching this as 2024 rolls in. Happy New Year Kev x
