  • The officially-licensed Hoonicorn V2 is now available in R/C form and it looks great, but how does it drive? Well today, we test it! Including bashing, 2S & 3S speed runs and AWD drifting. Plus, we compare the Hoonicorn to the Hoonitruck! So, which do you like better?

    Very good video and show of the car. Although way too expensive for a 1/10 scale brushed non adjustable RTR.

    For a mere $150 or so more the Arrma Felony wins ! once you own and drive a Felony youll never go back the blistering speeds, handling and drifting is just incredible. Arrma should have licensed a Hoonicorn version.

    Calling it "all new" is far from the truth, as only the body (and, maybe, wheels) is new. The chassis, and everything in it, was available. Unfortunately, it's also 'brushed' (come on AE, give us 'brushless'). Ignoring those two points, this body looks awesome.

      A few years ago we testing the Maverick cars to determine if AMain should offer them at our shop and our conclusion was, no, we should not. They had a few serious issues, like heavy suspension binding. Maybe it was an issue with the early cars and the current cars have the issues fixed? It's very possible the Maverick cars of today are much improved, but I don't know.
      Side Note: The suspension binding was so bad, it inspired our "How to Fix Suspension Binding Video," staring a Maverick vehicle: ua-cam.com/video/FLWNmYW7m-4/v-deo.html
