Yes, that kind of rc toys are what our parents bought for us when we're just a kid..i also bought toy grade rc for my toddler..and that's what makes us loves rc..
Devastator is awesome. Just wish the tires would be a bit more grippy. Cool to see they’ve adjusted the design. Moving the charger plug and power switch is a big plus. Entertaining video!
I agree with the end of the video Kev! Get into the hobby before they are scared off by high end prices! Every hobby is expensive so it not bad in the grand scheme of things.
Hey kev... is there any way I could maby steal a part from one of ur broken Devstator for my broken gear on mine? It's also a part u can't buy anywhere
Hi Kev, been watching your videos for a few weeks and must say I really enjoy them, especially the workshop and project ones. You're the first RUclipsr I've actually subscribed to so keep up the good work. I've just ordered one of these and wondered if you had any recommendations for upgrades. Little more speed is always nice. Cheers Stu
@@KevinTalbotTV yeah, I was thinking the wheels could do with being a smidge larger. I'm going to do some digging on motors too, maybe try a few different ones out. Anyway, as I say keep up the good work.
Ive been watching all your xmaxx videos and youve done alot, but one thing you havent done is put a 1340kv leopard motor with a hobbywing max 5, yes the max 5 fits, they make a bracket for it to mount on top of the braces that sit above where the old esc sits. The leopard motor is the size of a pop can almost. Its powerful,
The last minute of this vid is for real. Bought a WLtoys 12428 because I wanted to break things. Already broke things and fixed them now looking for upgrades to not break so much. Now I'm looking at higher end models. But I will say I love this car so far
My first rc car was a Tamiya Lunch box😂. I think Tamiya is the best way to start the hobby because you learn so much for example how a rc car works because the most Tamiya cars are kits😂 AND THAT'S ONLY MY OPINION
Ive got the new Devastator and it's brilliant. Ive done some real cool crawling with it. You didn't mention that now it comes with a li-po batterie and a light to say that it's charged.
Awesome vid Kevin, I do think you explained the differences about the cheaper units to a better Rc grade unit , I also think your spot on about people being able to start off with something that’s a lot less money and then they still get to learn exactly how everything works and then their more likely to move up to a real Rc because they can better understand the workings and the movements without having learnt a big lesson by wrecking a real Rc like Traxxas ect... and losing interest because they had to spend extra money fixing something they really didn’t get to enjoy before truly understanding it 1st ! But I don’t ever think that the Chinese Rc’s will ever replace top notch Rc’s because the Chinese stuff aren’t even close to the type of Rc quality you get from the top Rc builders , and overall the Chinese Rc’s aren’t far off the top Rc prices , so you really do get what you pay for when it comes to buying 1 from the top Rc builders ! Keep up the Great vids ! 👍✌️
I love my Devastator! I got it a few years ago when they came out. The only thing I've ever done to it is put RC4WD tires on it! They're taller and softer. I'd like to see you do a hobby grade build using the metal Jeep body and the cage!
Tonys Rc Tech hey Tony, yeah it’s pretty nimble for the money. I was looking for other shells for it but no luck! I never thought about a mod. Do you have a vid of it? I’ll go check..
Tal ves no entiendas esto pero quiero decirte que eres tremendo máquina y que tal ves seas el mayor representante de RC de cualquier tipo en el mundo o en RUclips y sigue así😎
Mate the best cheap rc crawler I've ever bought is the ftx ravine it is so capable its mental for £100 I really dont think u can go wrong for price my sons absolutely love taking it out
Perfect this things gonna be awsome for my son inside for these -50 Canadian winters. Probably gonna be many mornings waking up with this thing crawling over my head in the bed. Cheers bud
Can you make a video how to upgrade that black off road rc toys grade to a proper rc hobby grade? Or at least upgrade it so you can control the throttle and the steering? I have that rc but with a different model (the price must be same) and i wanna upgrade it...
I bought one cheap wltoys 18428-b crawler in Second hand store. I just paid 4 euros from that. It has similar structure as those two cheap crawlers. However, believe it or not, you can buy all spare parts for this wltoys 18428-b in Aliexpress.
Why did you change the thumbnail? I was scrolling RUclips and saw the thumbnail during lunch at school and I was laughing my ass off and everyone was staring at me 😂
I love your channel. Love the honesty and the joy I see in ur eyes when ur playing with them. I'm wondering how I could start testing rc cars like you do. Could you help me out
@@KevinTalbotTV ok. What kind of things do I need to start with? Like running cars, and bashing, and just testing? I just really love the hobby and would love to have the opportunity to try out other types like you do! And thank you for getting back to me on this!!
Chase Tucker I’m no expert at all, and am probably not qualified to give advice, but I’d imagine do everything, don’t specifically do one thing with your cars, do a variety of different things, like bashing, reviewing etc. hope this helps, but once again I’m no expert
Have you done a review on scx24 1:24 scale. For the price $120 and it is hobby grade it is the most superior mini crawler. I have more fun with it than my scx10ii. The only thing I found it needed was the shocks lowered to the chassis to help clear the tire rub on the front fenders. To do that I had to drill small holes in the the chassis in the front. The rear had holes to use.
I need an expert option. I have a jlb cheetah. If I adjusted my camber too tight and the dogbones were seated too deep into the drive cups, would that be the cause of them bending?!
The red devil don't even have enough power to spin the wheel under a lil bit of pressure bc of that it gets stuck on everything bc the tire just stops and won't spin
Kevin's logic
$100 RC: why is this so expensive?
$450 RC: dirt cheap RC review!
Ikr
Their both expensive in a way
It’s all relative
Hahahahhah
So true
Can you find the absolute cheapest hobby grade RC, and put it against the most expensive toy grade RC.
Insect King can I repost this on his newest video? It’s a great idea and I’ll credit you.
@@ev_____2407 sure.
the most expensive one i found is the losi 1:5, which he now has, but i have not found any cheap ones under 100€.
Yea that's a good idea
U can buy hospeed for 40$ and it's hobby grade
kevin is really smart AND built a monster truck now he is a god
We all start somewhere. Cars like these have a place in the chain. 👍
Yes, that kind of rc toys are what our parents bought for us when we're just a kid..i also bought toy grade rc for my toddler..and that's what makes us loves rc..
This is basically TopGear in RC.
Hey kev just put a flysky radio and receiver to the off road rock crawler
Me: looks at the thumbnail
WHAT HAPPENED?????? 😂
Same
Kevs funny way of edditing happend.
It's fixed now, but I saw it on my notification
Awww it was funny as crap tho
Radio control consumer

So today in school we had to write a essay on the person who expires us and I chose you!!
Inspired? Lmao!
Devastator is awesome. Just wish the tires would be a bit more grippy. Cool to see they’ve adjusted the design. Moving the charger plug and power switch is a big plus. Entertaining video!
You have inspired me to get a trx4 with all these crawler vids and I actually did and its awesome😁 That was a great purchase.😄
I wish I had RC cars like that
Good one handed driving. Red Devil wins for weird look.
Kev, there’s one awesome little budget crawler I’d LOVE to see your take on. It’s the ECX Temper gen 2!! Give it a try PLEASE!
I agree with the end of the video Kev! Get into the hobby before they are scared off by high end prices! Every hobby is expensive so it not bad in the grand scheme of things.
Hey kev... is there any way I could maby steal a part from one of ur broken Devstator for my broken gear on mine? It's also a part u can't buy anywhere
Yes you can just we need to work something out from Kevin Talbot
Look up the FTX Ibex. It is basically the same car.
doodlePancake 85 he says at the end of the video where to get spares
Banggood
@@SwampersRC nope, already looked. But did find a part similar somewhere else
Can you take the body of the Red Devil and build that in to a capable mini/micro crawler? Would be amazing to see!

Welcome aboard dude. I haven't done any mods but some people fit bigger wheels , that will give it a bit more speed.
@@KevinTalbotTV yeah, I was thinking the wheels could do with being a smidge larger. I'm going to do some digging on motors too, maybe try a few different ones out.
Anyway, as I say keep up the good work.

I got the HBX devistator bc of you and I LOVE IT!!! Thank you for the great recomondations
Put a bigger wheel on the devastator .........it will help crawling a lot!!!
This is an amazing small crawler
Love your videos I hope to be able to have as many rc cars as you thank you you are an inspiration to so many people
I was just looking on amazon for a rock crawler like the 100$ one and I found the exact off road Jeep one for 130$😂
Bro Amazon tries it's best to shave money off of people
Lol
In the description it has the links to all of the products
Im looking at a clear body for a 16th slash $60 but for a 1/10 one its $35
Coulda got an Axial SCX24 for $110-$120, they have a ton of upgrades for them
You should do a video with the Devitor with only crab steer only
you should build a proper crawling track for testing RC's l indoor project
The off road brand would be pretty cool if it had different Axel's and maybe some hobby grade parts. I like the look of it
My first rc car was a Tamiya Lunch box😂. I think Tamiya is the best way to start the hobby because you learn so much for example how a rc car works because the most Tamiya cars are kits😂
AND THAT'S ONLY MY OPINION

Can you please try to put two 6s lipos in the xmaxx
The red one needs a bit more weight to climb it. The reason for more weight in the front is because it provides more grip
Nice little crawler there... I got my boy the FTX Ravine for the crimbo and I use it more 😂
I have the RAVINE and its Amazing for the Money, also I've MODIFIED mine to put Scale Bodies on it 👍😁👍
Tonys Rc Tech hey Tony, yeah it’s pretty nimble for the money. I was looking for other shells for it but no luck! I never thought about a mod. Do you have a vid of it? I’ll go check..
7:11 was it just me who cracked up when he said "last and least, the red devil"?
Tal ves no entiendas esto pero quiero decirte que eres tremendo máquina y que tal ves seas el mayor representante de RC de cualquier tipo en el mundo o en RUclips y sigue así😎
How do u make a hardcore suspension for extreme off roading
Wise words about barriers to entry.
There is a market for the cheaper, crapper stuff.
When you’re trying to review rc cars and Agent Smith makes your mouth disappear
So im not the only one who noticed that on the thumbnail😂
Mate the best cheap rc crawler I've ever bought is the ftx ravine it is so capable its mental for £100 I really dont think u can go wrong for price my sons absolutely love taking it out
You should turn that black cheapo into something good, like put a good motor and radio and stuff
Video idea, so you made a crawler do 40mph+ so why dont you make a basher into a crawler
@Colton Hamilton ye thats a good point
Hey Kev that little red crawler had a cool cafe on it you should do what you did to the mini grave diggers and make one off of that cage
Got my son the white/green version of the "red devil" for Christmas. He's 3 and loves it.. I can't stand the thing🙄😅
Emoji gae
Portal axles would really help the Devistator!
And a bit bigger tyres
Thanks for the steering tip! I’ve done the modification, and the car steers allot better!
I just bought a Devastator, and very impressed, I'm thinking about buying two more
Perfect this things gonna be awsome for my son inside for these -50 Canadian winters. Probably gonna be many mornings waking up with this thing crawling over my head in the bed. Cheers bud
Can you get bigger wheels that will fit on those to make it a little more capable?
5:36 how I feel when I realize I have school tomorrow
ur comment is almost a year ago and its in the top of the comment box but nobody replied :[
@@axxur9687 I know how sad is that
I love the HBX stuff, we got a couple of Rampages and they kick ass. Even bring them to the skatepark with the xmaxx trucks
Is it just me or is it that every time I watch his videos I buy another rc for the kid 😉
For the kid? I always ends up buying for me..😆
You should modify the offroad one and make it good I think it has potential
The bigger crawler is great for a project and the metal frame look great
Hey kev, would love to see a comparison between the devestator and the axial 1/24 crawler. Would be a awesome comparison
I wanna see you test the devastator but with bigger tires
Right now on Banggood the devastator is about $70 to 80 which is not bad at all
I think you just like saying, "Devastator"... 😊
I have a car for you to try out. It is a HiSPeed brushless buggy. It is so good and I recommend it.
The HBX is awesome it needs better tires and better ground clearance..i think its more of a mini monster truck
What motor did you use on the grave digger
Traxxas should think about making a crawler that can has a switch with the ability to change it into a high speed car.
I woulnder if you can upgrade the $100 one into a mini solid axial truck
could you give us a slight estimation on when the next engine in toy car part 4 will come out
He should review the axial scx24
Can you make a video how to upgrade that black off road rc toys grade to a proper rc hobby grade? Or at least upgrade it so you can control the throttle and the steering? I have that rc but with a different model (the price must be same) and i wanna upgrade it...
HBX is really doing themselves proud. I own their 18859 and I’m about to buy a 2997a!
I got the same set up on my crawler as the big offroad how do you make them water proof
Put proportional steering and throttle on the off road toy
The off road one is bigger bit it still has the same ground clearance than the devastator
Kev has little hands 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 cheers mate !!!!!👊🏼👊🏼👊🏼👊🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🇺🇸🇺🇸
What size wheel nut does it come with because I just got one
Cool little trucks. Nice vice grips on the chair shaft...hehe.
Hi kev! I got my first hobby grade rc car a few days ago! Any tips to keep in the best shape for longer?
dont use it xD
Callum Holding keep cleaning it especially bearings when you go through water !
Don't do crazy jumps like Kev
Lubricate the joints before driving, wash the car when you're done. Keep an eye out for the bearings. Make sure the diff doesn't get dry.
All-or-nothing, definitely a crawler👌
This a great demonstration. Love the vids
PS how's the outcast 4s I would like to see more of that car
Do you think on the Devastator if you wanted to you could remove and swap the battery with a little bit of effort?
Can you ramp the Devistator?
Could you switch the wheels from the A959B with these wheels? It seems that the 959 would run better with these wheels.
Nice honest video as usual top youtuber ignore the haters🤘
Can we talk about the vice grip holding up that chair please? lol
You should Custom the off road and make it a hobby grade rc car
I bought one cheap wltoys 18428-b crawler in Second hand store. I just paid 4 euros from that. It has similar structure as those two cheap crawlers. However, believe it or not, you can buy all spare parts for this wltoys 18428-b in Aliexpress.
Where do you get those burn out tires
Why did you change the thumbnail? I was scrolling RUclips and saw the thumbnail during lunch at school and I was laughing my ass off and everyone was staring at me 😂
The Red devil is worth less I think in its place kev should have used the old flytech golden color one
Kev should I do crawling or drifting or bashing you choose hobby grade ones
What is the price of this car
You should try the. HBX 16889 I got one from banggood it’s a nice little hobby grade truggy
I love your channel. Love the honesty and the joy I see in ur eyes when ur playing with them. I'm wondering how I could start testing rc cars like you do. Could you help me out

From where can we buy the arrma felony 6s
You should start doing drone flying as well as rcs
what if you upgraded the red deval and make it hobby grade
A good cheap rc car that is a trail truck is the cr28 recommend and its only 60 usd so pretty nice
The devestator is one of the best crawlers in the world
The red devil looked like it wasn't spinning The rear tires
