My morning as I pull into my parking spot at work… I put my truck into park, I turn of my headlights, I turn down my radio, I straighten the steering wheel, I turn on Exo, I balance my phone on the top of the wheel, have a great 10 minutes. Great way to start my day.
Have had a lot of fun RC's but the GROM line has brought back a fun I didnt think I could have. Low price and nearly in destructable. I bought the Mojave and took it straight to a Skatepark aka Breakparts and it survived many many sessions there, The only thing that happened to it was my dogs love to grab it haha.
Hell must have frozen over because Redcat is a serious contender now! What a brave new world we live where someone could reasonably choose a Vigilante over an Arrma 8S or XMaxx, myself included
Solid list! Redcat really stepped up big time this year. Vanquish has their stuff down to a T. The armma grom Mojave has been catching my eye. Will be my next "basher/ go fast" rc car.
Redcats got my vote..they gave us new platforms and vehicles with hobbywing electronics not just upgraded re-released versions of 5 yr old platforms and their customer support rating isn't 1.7 out of 5 globally. 😂
There ARE A LOT of choices for every venue. Which venue, how much $$ just to start and how far to upgrade. Mind boggling. So much cool stuff. Gotta pick one or two and Then break it down further
Arrma is probably top dog in general! Sure there’s specific other brand rigs that are better for some people , but Arrma in general has it going on overall imo!
My RC truck of the year is the Mojave Grom BLX in that fantastic black/gunmetal grey colour. On 3S it accelerates better than any 4S or 6S truck. Amazing acceleration and great handling. Eats that Fury BLX for breakfast. Although the Fury also makes a lot of fun with its 2 WD and centre diff. Reminds me of my old Rustler VXL. Can't expect the Gorgon 223S to arrive in 2025. RC car of the year 2025 for sure...
AMain says they added the Kraton 6S EXB V2 to their site on December 23, 2023, so that’s close enough to count it for this year for me. It’s my TOTY since it’s the only one released this year that I own.
I love that redcat has stepped up for us that can't afford traxxas and aarma the trucks are pretty great for the price and the customer service is top shelf
It came out last year but went on sale this year . The Traxxas raptor r has been a blast I bought a kraton exb v2 at same time and it's been sitting there cause my raptor r has been crushing everything I put it through
@ExocagedRC I naturally assumed that you would have it and that I just must've missed the video 😂 Cool, so more or less the SCT version of the Typhon.
@ExocagedRC from what I've seen so far it puts all previous versions of the kraton to shame, even without the EXB aluminum bulkheads. Apparently the new updated plastic bulkheads fix the weak point without adding the alloy weight penalty
Rlaaro burned me on the Omni carbons. What terrible build out of the box. 3 times, 3 different orders were all defective. Replacement parts about a month from China. And unless you order from Amazon. You cannot return anything. Stay away
My carbon version has been great. I've beat the snot out of it and no-issue. But I also go through it after almost every bash and check everything and tighten everything etc.. j couldn't be happier
Truck of the year, let's go! Mine got delivered last week, can't wait to get it out of the box on Christmas and drive it!. All thanks to your videos and live stream that helped me decide to buy one. 👍
If the mini Maxx came with a center differential aluminum driveshaft, and sold it for $250 like they had originally advertised it for, it would’ve been the best RC car of the year hands-down.
Traxxas released nothing amazing this year. Clipless bodies that womt stay on and "heavy duty" plastic that is finally up to par to be on a hobby grade cars but far from heavy duty. They got whooped this year for sure.

😂 i used to do the same. My position changed now I get to wake up later and watch on my throne😂
dude youre AWESOME!!
Arrma did good that's for sure. Picked up a Gorgon and did a brushless conversion and it's heaps of fun.
They're slacking by not having a Gorgon 223s. We would be all over that
@ruuster83 absolutely

Your word is the gospel brother, you run so many R/C's....great pics, you are truly the ambassador for the R/C world!!!!
7:08 no, but it helps
Arrma killed it this year. I really want that Notorious

The Grom family line-up took over this year and is my pick for the top release(s) of 2024
Mojave grom is my favorite for the year. I pull it and the Typhon out all the time just to run them. Nice pics for the year.
You nailed it 👍🏻

They kicked butt this year
I do believe I might need that fury soon.
👍👍😃

Great selection of RCs 👌
👌😁
Better. 7 seconds.
Gotta be my router🤷♂️🤯
Oh, maidening of my vigilante today too😁
@@old-rcplane-phartgood luck and have a blast 👍😁
Im amazed in the vid. Traxxass not in the list anywhere 🤪
@ I’m kinda glad in a way. Get to see other companies products for a change. I’m a Traxxas guy anyway but it’s nice to see what’s out there. 👍😁
Anyone else wishing for an Arrma Infraction Grom? In BLX?😁
AMain says they added the Kraton 6S EXB V2 to their site on December 23, 2023, so that’s close enough to count it for this year for me. It’s my TOTY since it’s the only one released this year that I own.
Great line-up for this years best.
👍😁😎✌️

Thanks for sharing your passion with us, brother. I have the fury 223s on my list. Probably will be my next purchase!
❤ XTS rally car! Guess you didn't try the Syncro4 from Team Corally? It would've made the list...
💯🤸♂️🙌🏁🏆
It came out last year but went on sale this year . The Traxxas raptor r has been a blast I bought a kraton exb v2 at same time and it's been sitting there cause my raptor r has been crushing everything I put it through
2wd truck for truck of the year.. Imma go ahead and roll out...
I know right, I'm a 4wd guy too
I love gorgon y vorteks 😊
❤
I'm surprised the H10 Optic didn't make the list. I think it's one of the best new vehicles this year.
to me its just a decent trail truck, love the front end on it, the scale aspect but its just ok for me
Good choices! As always, love your enthusiasm for the hobby! 👍
When Arrma gets finally their esc fixed to a single unit, not a 3 in 1 and cutoff programmable at least, they would be king.
Y'all are leaving the stock rtr ESC in stuff?
@ often I keep the stock esc, as long it’s brushless and has my desired features like battery type autodedection
😂 rtr electronics are meant for a mediocre demo at best. Aftermarket is why these models sell for the true hobbyists anyway....
Good list👍🏼
💯Agree!!! Great picks!
Spot on👌
losi b .. or brushless grom ??
Spot on!😎👍🔥
ok the losi nascar some one needs to 3d print (in carbon)a adaptor to put bsr/jaco or 1/12 foams on it . thats the way to make it okay for cheap .
excellent review. I can see how you came up with it. i agree with ya. Have fun.
Yeah I only comment on vehicles I have
I know that one is 2WD and the other is 4WD, but how does the Senton 223s stack up? Dont recall seeing a review on the channel?
unfortunately I don't have that truck so I cant comment however, its close to the same as the buggy and thats awesome!
@ExocagedRC I naturally assumed that you would have it and that I just must've missed the video 😂
Cool, so more or less the SCT version of the Typhon.
Have you driven the new v6 kraton yet?
I have not, I have that Notorious though and I have an older Kraton EXB here
@ExocagedRC from what I've seen so far it puts all previous versions of the kraton to shame, even without the EXB aluminum bulkheads. Apparently the new updated plastic bulkheads fix the weak point without adding the alloy weight penalty
Whole lotta awesome, that's for sure 💯
Thank you for Word 2024 thank
What?? 😂
Word!
The more I see people‘s comments the more I see that people don’t like red cat fusions, ascent
Vigilante
Rlaaro burned me on the Omni carbons. What terrible build out of the box. 3 times, 3 different orders were all defective. Replacement parts about a month from China. And unless you order from Amazon. You cannot return anything. Stay away
Thanks for the heads up on that. I saw several reviews that said the same thing
My Omni was the aluminum version, its done great for me. Solid platform from what my experience is
I was very disappointed in the Rlaarro also. Out of the box it was missing wheel bearings.
My carbon version has been great. I've beat the snot out of it and no-issue. But I also go through it after almost every bash and check everything and tighten everything etc.. j couldn't be happier
Should be called the best arena list,lol
Truck of the year, let's go! Mine got delivered last week, can't wait to get it out of the box on Christmas and drive it!. All thanks to your videos and live stream that helped me decide to buy one. 👍
I hate you, your list stinks!!!!
Just kidding, it's a great list and great video! 🙂 Arrma Fury BLX added to my "to buy" list.
Traxxas Mini Maxx because it's so durable & such great value for money 🤔
Hahahaha 😂😂😂
You're joking right?
If the mini Maxx came with a center differential aluminum driveshaft, and sold it for $250 like they had originally advertised it for, it would’ve been the best RC car of the year hands-down.
But they didn’t 😅 I tried these new brands MJX riarrlo pretty greatness for the money , headlights wired neat scale
Traxxas released nothing amazing this year. Clipless bodies that womt stay on and "heavy duty" plastic that is finally up to par to be on a hobby grade cars but far from heavy duty. They got whooped this year for sure.
🤦
@@spike-- here's a fan boy who got robbed by Traxxas this year.

How do you figure that? 🤡
@@spike-- clown emojis are lame kid.

So is your whining. That's why you deserve one, poorboy.
