I was way to dismissive of this when I got it out the box!... It's not all that bad, however, there is one problem!! Subotech BG1525 4x4 Monster Truck.
Buy it here:

I'm not a massive fan of the looks, but it does have some good features:
Metal Diff Gears
Metal Driveshafts
Powerful Motor (Got over all the terrain I tested it on)
Full Ball Bearings throughout
Fully Proportional.
What it would need to make it better:
Oil Shocks! (No surprises there!)
Faster Motor
Softer Tyres

U suck
Thanks Dino.
I pinned your comment just in case people didn’t know 😍
@tomleyrc , great comeback 👍👍
@tomleyrc I'm subscribing due to this reply alone lmfao great man😂 good content aswell
@@TomleyRC lol nice nice mate, Dino will be extinct soon anyway 😂
Yo Dino, was that an insult or a request?
We need a new category for RCs like this. ToyGrade+
Fully proportional and fast, but not modular electronics, scale, or oil shocks.
"China Grade"... but I like your Toy Grade+ idea
Bobby grade, Budget Hobby 😂
こんにちは(笑)
同じラジコンカーを持っています。
結構楽しいラジコンです。
アップグレードのパーツもあるそうです。
確か、海外の専門店サイトです。
This body looks like the graphics designer just slid a few bars over on the proportions, and said k, lets get them out there! Lol
haha
I agree man!! Looks very good for kids. BUT!! My wife gave me this truck as a birthday present, so what can i say !! LoL!! Very honest man!! Love your channel bro!!
It's not a bad truck, just needs a few tweaks. And it has 12mm Hex hubs... easy upgrade for wheels.
cool they went 12 mm hex instead of their older big + sign shape,
some light weight knobby rally tires on it might help it a bunch.
a little less top speed but less rotating mass, lower center of gravity, and quicker acceleration, could be more fun in a small space.
one of the last videos I did was a GPtoys/Subotech quad picked up RTR for 20 bucks, slapped a blue WLtoys A979 body on it to match the funky blue tires... for a little cheapo it jams along pretty good.
only real upgrade was 800mah 2S lipo, runs a long time on such a small battery and it does itself shut down early enough to be lipo friendly.
Great vid! , actually thinking whether or not I should get one! Very helpful! Also love the fact you put 看这个 in lol . Also , I saw and advertisement for the mn90 , and it said that it could do 40kmh . 40kmh my arse
Thanks mate, yeah MN90 40kmh haha
Got this car for Christmas, and I LOVE IT! It runs fast, however the battery sometimes does die off quickly. The grip is amazing and I like to steer at high speeds. It’s almost perfect, although over priced! I would definitely recommend it! It’s actually pretty fast in real life, so don’t judge videos (no offence Tomley, your videos are cool!). Check it out for your self and maybe you’ll like it just like me!
It’s not a bad truck, there are just some better options for the same money.
@@TomleyRC Well, I didn’t choose the car. Maybe there are! I got it from Santa Claus. I think its ok)
@@TomleyRC Also I would LOVE a video of you checking out how many degrees can it climb (like an RC crawler), because i dont have the proper materials to do it. Make this vid if it’s possible. Thank you, The Mercedes Guy
@@pfosirens1398 It's a decent present! Glad you are enjoying it
And also you can control the speed on the controller. Mine goes faster than on your vid. It comes stock at 75 percent throttle. You can change it for battery save( when you dont need speed) and put it on 100 percent throttle to go as fast as possible. There are upgrades on websites to upgrade to brushless motor to make the performance better (for about 5-10km/h). I didn’t try it so you can do that if you want. It’s also nice off-road and crawls Amazingly well. Don’t forget its not water proof just in case you didn’t know. Tha ks for your time, Kind regards
Good review! Just out of curiosity, what oil shocks would you recommend that would fit perfectly (No modifications needed.) to improve performance? And, imo knowing the performance is not as good, this looks better than those "flat jobs" that don't look anywhere near like a monster truck. Just noticed what appears to be a "flat spot" in the rear left tyre. Now, about those shocks, Phil?
The "Brave" uses the same chassis and electronics. Basically a few plastic bits and a different shell. It's a decent truck imo. My nephew hasn't broken it yet, and that's saying a lot!
Yes, like I mention near the end, it's actually ok! Just needs a few tweaks
Cool little RC truck,great review
Thanks mate
My Subotech Brave went over everything, I love mine, think the Body looks ok 🤔😁 oil Shocks is a big one and hopefully manufacturers will listen one day 🤞🤔🤞 fantastic unboxing and a great test Run Mate ,really enjoyed it 👍😁👍
Cheers Tony. Still can’t believe how much you paid for it! £26 wasn’t it?
@@TomleyRC In my country it costs about 110 pounds
I’m with you. What’s with the friction shocks and the 380 and 390 motors in everything. We want a better ride with more power!!!
Yes...exactly
I bought one of these for myself recently, and I have to say that I think the comments section here has been a little bit hard on it. Its not by any means perfect, and certainly not as quick as advertised, but for being the toy\hobby grade hybrid that it is, its surprisingly sturdy and capable, and a lot of fun to mess with. The only major complaint I have is the price they go for, which I agree is a bit too much.
Yeah it’s not to bad actually.
It seems like a pretty cool vehicle. It'd be cool to put like a different motor and ESC in there maybe speeds up to maybe 30 35 mph hour.
I actually quite like the body, its a bit different, with the clear windows and rack detailing, interesting.
It’s not my cuppa tea, but I know others will like it
Can you reccomend a robust rc car like the one in the video that can be throttled to a certain speed? i want something robust for my little one and he already managed to shorten the lifespan of 2 (cheap tho) rc cars. he was careful but the material just couldn't take a drop or two and when driving in the garden outside the back wheel broke of the axle. and sadly the cheaper cars don't come with spare parts. any ideas? regards
Alright there dad !!! With your terrible puns 😉 haha . Great stuff as always mate 👍
haha
I think a 10 year old would be happy with this one.
my rear left wheel keeps spinning with no throttle, rest of other 3 wheels stop spinning. only left rear wheel keeps spinning at idle. This also causes car to not run straight or wheel to not respond to throttle.. you experience this yet with this MK model?
Only ran mine a couple of times so far. But not had any issues yet.
Your pin at the wheel hex sounds like It fell out!
When did this problem first start?
Steven Powers no it’s on , it prolly the rear differential it seems
747Fan actually about a month after
I own about half a dozen Subotech models. Subotech makes decent stuff especially when you consider how inexpensive their RCs are. They always cut corners with shocks, though. The shocks are by far the worst part about all their RCs.
Yes....Oil oil oil.....
You should put one of your brushless system in it and oil shocks and see how better it is!
I'd love to.... but the list of projects I have is very big lol
Not many new products coming out of China right now. Have you tried reaching out to hobby grade companies like Element?
Bigger Companies don't tend to want or need reviews as they focus on a small amount of their own products rather than products from multiple companies. And they do their own advertising.
how long this car working , before overheating or damaging engine, i want to go with car to nature for 60-90 minutes
I see a lot of these lithium ion batteries with a usb charge cable. Do these batteries not need a lipo alarm or storage charged when not in use?
I just treat them like lipos. We all have ions in our phones and laptops ect.
Liion batteries are much more stable and forgiving than LiPo, but they are less energy dense and have significantly worse voltage sag and current delivery.
Makes them great for cheap small Chinese brushed motors, but they melt down with even 540 motor loads.
The usb dongle is a miniature balance charger.
Vok250 the WLToys 12428 has a Li-ion battery with a 540 brushes motor and they hold up just fine.
@@nschaad1982 upgrade to a LiPo and you'll notice the performance difference. Even the runtime on the liion is poor because the voltage sags below the ESCs cutoff long before the battery capacity is used.
They add crappy shocks so are we spending more money on upgrades,how was the battery,looked like wltoys size ?👍🏻
Standard li-ion used in pretty much everything
I would consider it one of those cars you could bash and trash and not feel bad about destroying it .
are this waterproof? If Comparation with xinlehong 9125, which better? (Sorry my english so bad 😁) Thank you
Definitely china grade. 😃 Even the better ones fib. Some of them might hit the numbers on the box on 3s IF they can handle it.
Have a great day and be safe out there!
Thanks mate. Yeah 3s for 45km/h
The styling is weird, it's so close to being good but not quite there.
I really don't know why they use 390 motors in 1/10 stuff so much. There's nothing wrong with them fundamentally but a 540 isn't going to break the bank, probably costs about 10p more to make and will be more powerful and less stressed.
18650 type batteries aren't ideal but they do the job at this price point I guess. The shocks always confuse me though, they could at least make them capable of being filled. I find it really odd that so many Chinese brands give you bearings even in entry level stuff like this but omit oil dampers. Some established brands like Tamiya do the opposite! You get oil shocks but no bearings!
It's a lot easier to get the right size bearings than it is to find oil dampers that are a good match. For bearings, you just need the right measurements and the world's your oyster. For shocks, you never really know if they will be suitable till they turn up. I know which one I'd rather have to buy myself.
Doesn't seem to shabby overall but I think it could do with costing a bit less or coming with proper dampers.
agree, for a 1/12 scale rwd old school on road pan car, a 390 motor would be good and fast, because they're so simple and light weight. just not enough power for a 1/10 awd basher. a 390 in a 1/12 or even 1/10 crawler can be decent enough too if its geared right, like the "Doomsday".
Oil shocks better tires and upgraded motor n I think that would b really fun
Nope the RC sucks ass I own one of those and no a 540 won't fit and oill shocks wont fit with braking the rc to make them fit overall this is a piece of SHIT RC
With all that upgrading just buy a good truck like traxxas trx4
Well done nice video
Thanks mate
Recently I'm not too happy with Banggood. 40 days for a servo from China to Japan. After your review of this toy not impressed! I'm getting better shipping and packing from eBay.
You have to understand that a lot of cargo is now going by land. I have some stuff that takes weeks, and some takes months
Can't knock my 'china grade' BSD Racing Prime Baja! Takes a beating and has oil shocks lol. Not much more expensive than this thing either. Cheers for the great content btw👍
Yes some good stuff out there from them
I love the name Warrior ❤️
Wow i was so close to buying this.
That might have been an airsoft battery.
You by this cars or banggood send it to you for free review?
Free for Review
Tomley RC send it one to my kid mate , we don’t have money to by none
Tomley RC please
Just wondering: Do you still have room in your garage? Or are you saving up to then be the best Santa in your street this year? 😂
Haha... sorry to disappoint but I now have a 20ft Shipping container to fill 😎👌
Over all... it's pret-y POOR. 😖 I hope you didn't have to pay for it!!
It's not the worst... would I get it for my Grandbabies? Maybe, if was under $50 USD.
You gave it a good, fair look though.
Please stay SAFE! 😷
Carmine ✈🚂🚙
Oil shocks. Got it!
Did I mention Oil shocks enough? haha
Cool cool
car seems to run great, but you keep saying "not that bad" why not just say it runs and performs good? not sure if you're giving this product a genuine clean and fair review.
you can't seem to let go of the non oil shocks, but even without them, the product appears to run and perform good. so let's just say it runs good and give credit where credit is due
Yeah it’s not that bad. But with a $100 price tag there is a few better options out there. Oil shocks should standard on anything over $60 in my opinion. Tyres are hard and motor is a bit under powered. So I stand by my ‘it’s not bad’ statement 😎👍
@@TomleyRC ok ic, curious what are the better options out there for a $100 RC car? this is the first RC i bought, so maybe i'm in love with something but haven't been exposed to mores that out here for this price.
Weird, their older and cheaper bg1521 comes with oil shocks
Yes...Subotech have some decent stuff
such a fail...looks super cheap and hey I have an idea! lets put a 380 motor in a 1/10 scale vehicle...what?? add the fact that there is not oil in the shocks and no where near 45kph. Well I would not purchase for sure. Metal gears great!, metal drive shafts and dog bones great!..full bearings excellent!...but why would you then fail on the shocks, motor and battery! what you didn't want to spend the extra 10.00 per vehicle to produce!?? do it right or don't do it at all! Nice video Phil....still wanting a recommendation from you for my first crawler under 100.00 that you recommend as the best.
Its not a 1/10, more like 1/12 I reviewed the Flytec 8897 last year and its basically the same truck, subotech chassis, Ford Raptor shell and friction shocks... Feels more toyish than hobby grade like this one!
Yeah, a lot of the Chinese manufacturers miss oil shocks, and it's one of the main things that changes a car/trucks performance! As for a Crawler under 100... there isn't much about unless you go for something like the MN99s...but that's not an all out crawler, or a KM version of a WPL.
Damn a crawler under$100? You're not going to get much at that price the scx24 is $120 and from everything I've seen is a pretty good rig
grabbed an ECX Doomsday Barrage when they were 100 bucks RTR free shipping, was an excellent deal for a basic (but real) crawler.
today you might need to bump up to about 150 for something fair.
@@modelnutty6503 great info. Thank you!
I bought one of this and is still working good but i broke boody
For 86 quid its OK or is there better?
Depends what you want. WLToys 144001 is the best value out there for buggys. If you want a monster truck then maybe look at the 1/10 HBX range or Xinlehong
Its for my 4 year old boy. I have vintage tamiya.
@@TomleyRC Hi Phil. Just took a quick look at a couple of HBX (1/12 and 1/16 only. Didn't see any 1.10) and Xinlehong trucks and the first thing I noticed was they don't seem to come standard with oil shocks, the HBX had 390 motors and they don't look as good as this Subotech truck. Yes, they're cheaper by about $40 and they probably outperform due to their w-i-d-e wheel base, but they don't look as good imo. Cheers.
I have the Brave I got on Amazon for 30$. Good rc car but gears strip with 2 s lipo's!
$30 is cheap!
Tbh, I think there are only a few good Chinese rc cars and trucks out there
The chinese caption is quite right haha
haha... 😎👍
Just put a 3s lipo in it might do 45kph if your lucky
Yeah probably!
It runs like my dog when see a cat
haha
it was ok
until I saw the price
Hi mate, wow yeah this is nearly not worth nearly 90 quid in my opinion, definitely a pass and much better rc models out there for that money, although 90 quid is dirt cheap for a full proportional model there's still much better out there a mate, most wltoys for example.. Happy rcing bud
Agree mate.
I see you've come to begging people to watch your videos now
Desperate times call for desperate measures 🤣😂🤣😂
@@TomleyRC True my man, True
Rudder machine? Fifteen years ago, I laugh. Now c'mon.
haha...very true
The speed ratings on these cars are as exaggerated as the MPG claims for actual cars
Lol看这个 pretty native too
"Look at this" 😬
45 KMH this is if your grandmother threw it .
Hmm good bit costly
Yeah, better stuff out there
That thing just sounds like toy grade.
Honestly, it looks alright for a pile of shit 😅
Certainly a better option than a toy RC
haha...
buy cheap buy twice - Chinese knock off crap doesn't last and it puts people off the hobby (the reason the RC world is suffering) ...... parts are scarce ..... drives like crap ..... save your $ and spend them on something decent - PS this crap should not be put in the spotlight and killing the industry
Disagree. Cheap RC’s are allowing more people in to the hobby. Everything is made in China... it just varies on quality. Not everyone can afford 200...300....400 or even 1000 for an RC. I have plenty of ‘cheap’ RC’s that have outlasted my named brand stuff. My La Trax Teton broke the Servo on the first run, and the diff on the second run.... where as the $35 equivalent is still going strong! It may be the case in this example, which is why I have given it an honest review and said it seems a bit ‘cheap’ and I wouldn’t personally buy it. I’d say If anything, it actually encourages people to buy better brands when they buy cheap and it breaks, rather than putting them off. I like the X-Maxx... but how many people have spend over $1000 on one and then killed the spur gear on the first run? Or bent a chassis on an Arrma?
@@TomleyRC the principle is that these knock offs take away pioneering companies that push the RC envelope while chingwah copy for nothing but free easy $$ - no passion invested. Without pioneers there will be no progression and we'll all just get bored of the same crap everywhere - LRP/NOVAk the pioneers of brushless - GONE! . i'm sure someone can do what you do cheaper too... our electronics industry is going to crap because of exactly the same issue. people expect the world for peanuts as that's where it now starts... many major players pulling or winding down investment......
I think you are 10-15yrs to late for that theory/idea. Everyone jumped ship to China along time ago for the cheap labour and now even the big names have ‘Made in China’ stamped all over them. I used to buy and restore 80s/90’s BMX’s, and from about 96> nearly everything was made in China but prices didn’t reflect the cheaper manufacturing. So maybe it was not all down to China, but greedy companies trying to save a few $$$. I do agree with what you are saying, but in 2020 is just the norm now.
Give away me😓
lol looks like the rc car i have when i was a child.
If you find a tall enough building to drop it off it might do 45 kmh 😊
Haha
