I have the original MN99S, seriously under powered. My nephew melted the transmission running in the tall grass. I upgraded to the single speed metal one, and it is really noisy. But, at least it runs again. To shed weight, I installed the half cab roof. And I like the new bead-lock tires. They are more scale and look less toyish. Great review, and I love your indoor course! Liked and subscribed! Cheers!
Thank you, I agree the old one is underpowered. I change out the battery and electronics on the old version to a 2S Lipo (50C) and it made a big difference in performance but it runs HOT! The new one does have a larger motor, but the electronics are the same. I am liking the new tires, they preform better and look better. I have the metal gear box, I have yet to install or make a video on that. Coming soon! I hope to figure out how to make it quieter.
Hope you enjoy it! The metal suspension links are different between the version. But the new version plastic ones are just fine, they don’t have the slop the old version had. The Shocks should work out just fine.
The switch being low to the ground also happened to me in the MN82, I was crossing over a tree root over and it shut off. I thought I blew up the motor or receiver or something but it luckily it was just that. Other than that, so I think there are 4 version of this thing now, the earliest non-porpotional with 130 motor, the non-propotional one with 260 motor, the propotional with 260 motor and now propotional with 280 motor..
You are correct. I think of all the versions this is the first big redesign. The other versions were just building on the same platform. This one has an entirely new frame, suspension, drive train, and the servo on the axel is a big one too. Luckily the switch is an easy fix.
I own 15 MN models and if you hold the light button down for 3to5 seconds then it converts the turn signals into hazard lights. I cannot stand turn signals on crawlers and alot of people are not aware of this MN’s light function. I am assuming this one does also. I hope this helps.
@ Im hoping MN did this trick with your MN99s as I have the Range Rover MN168 it also has this led feature. I notice this 99s has the same chassis as the 168. Now the 168 has a seperate receiver from the esc, it’s the first MN model they have ever done this with. They typically have a 2in1 combo in all their models besides the 168. I hope they did it with this model but with it not being as expensive as the 168 then I doubt it. The reason im asking is they have all the leds wired into a specific large white plug that plugs into the separate receiver that I mentioned making it far easier to just change out the esc and keep all the stock leds working but I have to use the stock transmitter to do this but thats not bad. Let me know if you find this info out if you have the time? and I also subbed to you as I always support any fellow RC channels! RC on friend!
@ Thank you! Your video is great! Awesome review of it and great point about it being good for someone who likes to upgrade as it has alot of potential! ☮️👍
i realy liked the new version, but i live in Brazil, i tried to buy, but is so expensive because of taxes, the item custs more than 50 dol, the price goes up 92%
The new version is a nice upgrade. Man 92% is a bit difficult. Maybe the MN82 is within reach. It’s a nice little truck as well. Lots of upgrades and tinkering on that one too.
@@yGustaSadzinn It already has a larger motor, not quite the 370. The gearbox and mount is different as well as the location of the drive shafts. Based on that I would say no. You would want to wait for their new versions of 2 speed transmissions. I have noticed that by changing out the battery to a LiPo 50c pack I got a bunch more low end power, but the top speed did not change.
@@hobbykita5193 they are a bit different. The top links are not as close together at the axel end. But the connection method where the screw strip looking at them wrong are still there.

I just ordered the new version before i saw your video. I hope the metal links and shocks i also ordered will fit. Nice review 👍🏻

The motor driver (8DIP IC) in the MN82 sa8336d can handle 7A continuous, 14A peaks, the older one is the TA6586 is 5A continuous and 7A max
Thank you for that information.
Great review. Really nice to see the version 2 for the popular MN90. I had the same power switch problem with the MN128. 👍
My MN128 is not having that issue. But now that you said something I am sure it will :)
Probably flip the power swtich orientation so it doesnt get hit going forward? Still could grt hit in reverse though. Good review
@@z33tanner I have a video right after this one with my fix. It was an easy one.
Really nice review, thanks! 🙏
My pleasure!

@@suvsteve Thank you! After I found the fix for the flaw, it’s a nice little truck. Video coming this week with the easy fix.
Is not much info online about this MN 98 v2 Camel trophy licensed version... Thank you. Keep posting! 👌
More to come!

Does the mn99sv2 have drag brake?
Nope 🙁

@@BillsWorkbench yes, its a nice option, but, i have one
@@yGustaSadzinn WPL is next on my list of cheap crawlers to try out.
@@BillsWorkbench yes!! i have 2 wpl's, i love wpl models, one question friend.. the new mn99 can be updated to 370 2 speed motor??

RC J22
You bet!

I would tend to agree the RC J22 is something.
