I have like 15 different radios and I always just use the old Tactic one with every car. It works great, it's comfortable in my hand, and I can reach the knob with my thumb really well.
Found your channel through Kev's channel, but I really don't watch his vids anymore, and don't miss any of yours. Good stuff, relevant content. Hopefully Claire is back soon too.
Your video before this on the Element Enduro Ecto Black cost me a bunch of money because I couldn't resist buying it after your great video on it. I am glad I am not in the market for a small fireteam right now or I would buying this one!
Oh man, this would be a killer present for me haha Could you please do a build on the Orlandoo Hunter Trophy Truck some time..? It seems like a really cool kit, but the big reviewers seem to pass on it. If someone like you give me a take on it, I think I would save up some pocket money and get a kit!
Could you do a video on how you do your camera work? Quite impressive one handed. Maybe you could find a volunteer to film you filming. I’d love to get some cool videos of my toys. John.
oh wow that's another great review of a good little truck. I can only see one downside to the 1:18 market - looks too small. Looks like a toy, but goes like a full race spec model. Tough call! 👍🍺🇬🇧
been having fun with the brushed one of these, but it bounces like a bouncy thing on a bouncy castle with the pogo stick not oil shocks, is fun though!
-4:30 Definitely a great car but this pretty much help me decide it can wait-maybe payday. Thinking of some kind of body wrap or at least stickers else a constant need to tell my mates - its not me its pre-painted.🤷🏻♂
I’m betting that in order for them to achieve that 52kph they had to of had it juiced on a3s battery to make that claim. Even if it blew up after, it’s enough to put it on the box. I love these though, I have a brushed black hole 😝😮 innuendo intended🤪LOL! Just as fun as the original!
Couldn't get the brushless 431 in black and white.... So I ordered a brushed 331, stole the body, and re-gifting it for XMas! Note to the wise, Hospeed's box tape comes off really easily, nobody will ever know :)
Amazing how much it looks like the arrma fireteam even the same tire design and everything Hope u dont get in any trouble with arrma for talking about their rcs 😂😂
Phil mentions that the IMPERIAL system is used in Britain (Pomp and Circumstance starts playing)(Phil starts imromptu speech-dammit I miss Tim Brooke-Taylor). Pretty good buggy that one. It, or the company that makes them, seem to be following the usual pattern of lesser known brands when they start out. Get a good product out there, start by selling it cheap. Over time you can charge more as you get better known (cough!HobbywingCough!). Cool vid as always.
@@TomleyRC the spec is pretty good and it performs well though, so it's on a par with WLToys, for example. Stop showing stuff like this! I've got no spare cash any more!
HA! For once I got something before you lol 😂 I bought one for a Christmas present for myself,, then they put the fireteam on sale for 399.... Aaaand I looked at my Walmart rc lovin older brother and tossed it to him as I bought my fireteam. Good news is now he's addicted to Quality rcs like me , - he went back and got a granite lmao 🤣
The only RC car I ever bought was the WLtoys 144001 and tried to do the metal upgrade for everything. I say tried because now I have a box full of bits and no car😢
Hi would you recommend the mjx hypergo 1/14 drift truck over the wltoys 1/10 drift truck as sale this weekend , so not sure either one to get mjx cheaper smaller what would you say tomley?
What plug does it have? Trying to order it and few 2s lipo's for it right quick but not sure which ones will work or what plug to order to change it to.
I have to chuckle when you go to that construction site...the guys show up Monday morning to get at it and see their site all covered with mini tire tracks.....haha. Not sure if I mentioned this but when I worked construction here in Canada in the winter we'd show up and often see paw prints in the show. One time there were rabbit tracks coming out of the woods then fox or a small coyote tracks intercepting the rabbit then a race around and around and the rabbit eventually flying off in one direction then the "dog" off in another. "bugs got away that time". Some guys I worked with said on another site they were working away next to an iced over lake. "hey look" and a pack of wolves were running down a deer.....many people say "how horrible" but wolves only go after the weak or the sick and make the herd stronger. They NEVER go after a buck in his prime...wouldn't catch him and if they did, they'd get torn to shreds by his antlers....unless he was old and on his last legs.
I knew it. So just to be clear if you drive 62 mi an hour for an hour you will have covered 100 km? As opposed to state side whereas I would have covered 62 mi
😂awesome video as always keep the great video luv the color and its a awesome little car luv the 🚗car would did you get the battery that lipo would like to no we're you purchased it and wandered if you you could run a 3 s battery in it for a short period of time any information would be greatly appreciated thanks Mike holden out of north Carolina said that
The Chinese rc car's seems that they have start to get better than any other time. My worst experience with a cheap arc car was with wltoys 144001 before 4 years. From then i said i will not buy again a chinese brand rc car and now i see that chinese have start to make jumps to much much better quality rc cars. Of course damages are acceptable from a point and then from any rc car you beat to the ground and the same is with the cars.
Just got myself one of these the 15 percent off code works got it to go with my mix hyper go brushless witch you also recommended 😂 your making my spending habit worse
He talks in dollars cause it's watched all over the world and not just in the UK. So he talks dollars so everyone can understand, he's mentioned this before as has Kevin Talbot, who does the same thing
"Call it the Mini Fireteam, I'm sure Arrma won't mind".. They probably won't mind.... But I wouldn't put it past Traxxas to sue the company on Arrma's behalf.! 😉 😉 😂 😂 ... ... ... ... They'll be like.. "Hey Arrma, here's an invoice for the recent court case against HS models, we know it doesn't really concern Traxxas at first glance but here at Traxxas we're a little bit like Mother nature... Nature abhors a vacuum & Traxxas abhors a copyright infringement case un-litigated.. Also, we make RCs, you make RCs & these Chinese companies are making RCs... So it really is Traxxas's business in the end.! Thank you & your welcome... NOW PAY THE BILL OR WELL DAMN WELL SUE YOU".!! 😉 😉 😂 😂 😂 😂
Im more than surprised Traxxas hasnt gone after MJX with there Hyper Go MT with the clipless body. Funnily enough the MJX clippless body dosnt keep coming off in crashes, unlike the Traxxas body does lol.
Those cars lost gears. Gears' teeth wear out in 2 months. Both gears and the one on the axis and the one on the motor in the same time. And motor loses contact with chassis. I'm not sure if 35 USD even a fair price. Definitely not more.
@@TomleyRC I bought a machine with this chassis based on your review, where you said that it is very durable. I bought for a small child and he did not use it in proper way. He managed to break it in several places. I don't think this is the correct usage, so I have no hard feelings for your review. On the contrary, I think other cars (chassis) would not have survived less of the abuse that this chassis has withstood. But "eaten gears" is a problem that could have been avoided at the electronics level, if it's expensive at the mechanical level. I think a possible reason is when the wheels got stuck so they didn't move at all. The mechanical part is connected directly, and the controller does not seem to take into account the current and does not turn off the motor. As a result, I rather support your opinion about the strength of models on this chassis. But still it is cheap and you should not expect a miracle. I did not expect. But I'm upset that the controller does not do its direct job - current limiting. Anyway thanks for reviews.
"no guns" I remember KT got a little spiffy that there were guns on the one he reviewed a while back.....I have to laugh at people who say they don't like guns...."oh? you don't like being alive? because the only reason you are is because there are other people with guns and willing to use them to protect you".
I generally don’t get in to debates about Guns… or Religion or Politics. To many differing opinions. Anyway, Guns aren’t the problem…’people’ are the problem. That’s all I’m gonna say.
I noticed that in the KT video as well. Brits don't have firearms like we do in Canada. Trudeau is trying to disarm us and leave us defenseless to tyranny eventually.

Glad you found me 😎👍
I love the automated captions.
Apparently this has a 4000 KB brushes tomato
Still curious when Arrmas gonna release a mini basher like a 1/16th Revo smasher 😅🤣
The remote reminds me of the Pirates of the Caribbean scene, when captain jack’s telescope is larger than Barbarossa’s. Ahhh toilet humor.
Haha.. can’t say I remember, but sounds funny 😅
I bought the early brished version for my son a couple years ago, was great until the servo gave up 5 charges in
Dang it Tomley now I'm gonna buy Yet Another official Tomley recommended cheap RC
Pretty cool!!! I want that body for my Teton!!!👍👍👍
Your video before this on the Element Enduro Ecto Black cost me a bunch of money because I couldn't resist buying it after your great video on it. I am glad I am not in the market for a small fireteam right now or I would buying this one!
I thought it was a very cute mini rc car, but the performance, speed and power are quite good. awesome.😁💕🎶👍
🤘
I'm a fan of you and Kevin. But I must say, Kevin could take some videography lessons from you. Awesome footage man! And a great video as always.
That little finger pointer is cool,,i could have alot of fun with one of those.
Oh man, this would be a killer present for me haha

Cool little fireteam ripper!! Epic video as always ‼️ 👍👍🦾🦾

I did make one a few years back. It take lots of practice… the most important bit is working out/practicing how to drive one handed
I have the cheapest model and it was a great buy.
Now for the price I prefer HBX 16889A Pro
Sweet looking truck.
Great review as always.
I really like the look of those tyres...
It looks good and performs well. It took a beating and kept going. I was surprised it wasn't a little faster.
Awesome little truck thing 😀👍👍👍👍
Always keeping me entertained on Sundays 💪
Standard 😎🤘

Yeah… good for the garden… kids or to take away on holiday.
been having fun with the brushed one of these, but it bounces like a bouncy thing on a bouncy castle with the pogo stick not oil shocks, is fun though!
Yeah, they are good but desperately need oil shocks
Yay

Amazing how much it looks like the arrma fireteam even the same tire design and everything
Hope u dont get in any trouble with arrma for talking about their rcs 😂😂
The covered electronics chassis design seems to hold a lot of dirt and sand . Thats my only real complaint about it .
Content on this channel is gold, well done mate 👍🏻👍🏻
09:01 Nice...!

Awesome video Phil! Love the Bottom Armor 😂
Hahahaha… I turned in to a 8yr old for a bit there
Great job as always Phil, well done you. John
Cheers John 👌
Hey Phil just liked it let you know I love your videos, long time subscriber & also I love your selection of wrist watches!
Thanks dude… I like a cool watch. It really in to the luxury ones though
Should have been in grey or black
Still using my tactic radios from seven years ago luv them 👍
Yes, they are really nice to use
Great video Phil
Take my money!!
Camera work is first class mate
Right on. Coooooool!

Me gusta la tortuguita🐢 de 100 dolares es muy agil
ArrmA fans hate the original. Imagine how much could they love a mini clone
Your awesome love the funny stuff keep up the great work
Cheers dude…. appreciate it
52kph is achieved by strapping it to a house brick and dropping from a tall building 😅😅. Funky little thing with bonus bottom armour 😅
Haha… maybe that’s the next video
Nice
What a great RC... Thank you
Hi would you recommend the mjx hypergo 1/14 drift truck over the wltoys 1/10 drift truck as sale this weekend , so not sure either one to get mjx cheaper smaller what would you say tomley?
What plug does it have? Trying to order it and few 2s lipo's for it right quick but not sure which ones will work or what plug to order to change it to.
Hey love it witch is better MJX OR THIS TINY FIRE TEAM. ALSO WHAT IS THE BEST MJX CAR TO GET. ON ROAD OR OFF-ROAD.
MJX for me… any of the brushless ones are a good choice 👌
OMG i finally got mine. slowboat to Texas. it's purrrrdee
Do you know if they make upgrade parts for these? I have a Matco Tools RC that is exactly the same, other than the body.
I can Dig it ! Thanks 👊🏼

hey tomley alex kowaliuk here from america im about to do my first tamiya tt 02 build any advice on anything i should know ..
The best I have the most fun with is the fy03 I just haven't run it in a year or so there is still parts available for it at this time
Do those wheels have the same size hex as the hs18302 ?
I knew it. So just to be clear if you drive 62 mi an hour for an hour you will have covered 100 km? As opposed to state side whereas I would have covered 62 mi
We use MPH in the uk the same as you
Heya Phil! Just getting into the hobby. Loving your reviews and energy! May I ask, what app do you use on your phone during speed runs? Thanks!
Hi :)
It's a SkyRC GSM020 module and it works with an app on your phone
I cannot find any spare/replacement parts in Google search?
Maybe it's going 52 with all the upgrades.
It's not to bad. But I think if I was going to spend over $119 on a rc car I'd just save up more and get something that's really worth it
🗣️Quit Playing with your Dingy!
😇
Bit late to the party but that's pretty nice
Never too late ⏰
I might get one for my son he alway wants drive My Fireteam but its way to big for a small child.
It looks too much like a toy for me. Great video with some nice filming 👍
Phil, I'm gonna watch the video as usual, but PLEASE tell me the name of the music you played when testing the shocks on the bench. Many thanks 👍🍺🇬🇧
