Why hasn't been ysed the Powered Up remote from the City trains? After all, it's always bluetooth technology. And if it isn't enough, maybe TWO PU controllers (or, realistically, a proper console controller)
I'd prefer to use a controller. I wouldn't use a phone or tablet to control anything. They are jusy being cheap , they should include a controller , they charge enough
Like a batch sensor to touching a ball before all 13 or more balls releases like a starting gate. Or build new like a clutch using a friction pin. to connect a gear. Or maybe you can build a electric reveser to detect the motor in reverses direction.
I believe lego could easy release a motor and pieces that can take this car to something close to the real RC models at high speed, but dont do that because its afraid of kids breaking the toy and adult parents complaining lego sold a dangerous toy.
George Barbosa they made the RC Buggy motor, however they have since discontinued it. If they did make a motor again though, and create a faster RC vehicle, then it shouldn’t be handled by kids at all
Have you never owned any RC cars as a kid? They are being sold to kids all the time and nobody has died yet. Sure you don't need one with a combustion engine that can go 75mph, but this Lego thing is just extremely slow. Kids are not that dumb unless raised to be that by their parents.
@@jltworks3167 i own both the yellow rc buggy and the silver race car. both with the black with red bushings rc motors and REAL remote. that thing is amazing and mental compared to the shit ir and bt crap lego released afterwards. They were exactly as you espect from a real, non lego, rc car. These are just embarassing
Yeah, it's always not little Billy's fault he crashed the car into mommy's leg on purpose and made her break her back and now she's a quadriplegic. It's definitely not little Billy's fault. It's Lego's fault.
I bought this set for myself, but decided to let my 6yr old grandson build it with my guidance, we both loved every minute of the build. Then after downloading the App, he had just the best fun in driving it, as did his 4yr old sister. For $120 AUD it is good value, time with the grandies priceless. Adults buying and building it for themselves may not get as much fun or value. Cheers
@Toby N. that's true, but actually I think lego can think about inwheel motors instead. it sure isn't very realistic from a mechanical point of view but that kind of motors can revolutionize MOCs in so many ways. also for propulsion and simulate mechanics as you can still have a "fake" transmission as you can have the motors transmitting towards a fake piston engine. So in the end you can have a lego with some 15 kph of speed without breaking anything.
Moonstalker that seems very legit but I think one problem is that if the Technic car goes too fast the amount of rumbling might result in pieces flying off or a bump might result in a big crash. Though back in the early 2000s they had this big green radio controlled RC lego racer that can go really dang fast but it only had like a couple of pieces. It was kinda hard to tell it was even a lego
Moonstalker my lego racers car from like 2008 (I think) that’s yellow (around 5 inch long) can go speed walking running speed and even drift on sooth surface turns. It had a custom power function kit that was the whole car chassis body (including steering) and I’m surprised not even my 2019 4x4 Technic off roader could match the speed at all which is quite disappointing yet that racers RC has wheels that are less than an inch in diameter. The lego racers RC series could go pretty dang fast. Man back in the day around the early 2000s Lego RCs were so much more rad
@@cyborgpunk6668 I never had those but I don't mind not that fast lego, however I do mind when it's boringly slow. The only exception is some models that are heavy or supposed to be slow. here it's a simple RC car, it should be fun to drive that around.
This set is pretty much a perfect example of taking things I love (Top Gear, cars and Lego) and messing it up when putting them together in a bad way. It's amazing how very unappealing this set is, even for me! I knew this would be bad but I wasn't expecting it to be this bad! Even I thought before this review that it looked like it was based on the 42077 Rally Car from a couple years back, which is significantly cheaper nowadays at £55, even if it does forgo the Control+ stuff. I don't expect this to do too well with that high price and the niche-ness of it; there's a lot of significantly nicer sets at that price or lower, even if they don't have Control+. Even the 42099: 4x4 X-Treme Off-Roader is already half off at £100 and thus cheaper and the better choice than the Top Gear set, if you really want the Control+ system.
Also bearing in mind that some of us don’t even want an RC vehicle controlled via smartphone. Most of us prefer using a physical control, it just feels more natural
I like the Diff, that's about it. Performance doesn't push the peaks to the point where clever engineering is needed. Yeah yeah the Technics line is for kids... True.
I respect your honest opinion on a lego sponsored set. Nice work to you for your honest review and also nice work to Lego for continuing to sponsor sets for you to review even though they may not get a good review on a set.
Lego has always been full of integrity. One time I was missing an entire bag of the old tower bridge set and they sent it to me, no questions asked, no price charged. And the employees at the store are always so kind
There is a LEGO speed champions Audi Quattro coming out, so maybe they could have made the body look like an Audi. This seems like a good set for around $70, but between the performance, the looks, and the fact that you have to pay extra for a Top Gear licensed product make this disappointing.
@@chrissmarduksrccarcarnage4940 Wrong. The extra gears in this new diff make it MUCH tougher than the old one. Good for big mocs with high torque, and This new diff is probably less problematic for making things like automatic transmissions, and subtractors
In my opinion, the car keeps going to the left because of "torque steer". This results from the lengths of left and right drive shafts are not equal. Usually, it's the case for transverse front engine, front wheel drive with high torque in the real car. Unfortunately, the software cannot correct this unless you can distribute power between left and right drive wheels.
Could you please do a video on how to get more gear it up more/get more speed out of it? Also, can the diff be removed entirely and would that stop the veering? 16:46😂😂😂😂
The best thought was: "Why Oh Why LEGO Put This New Defferential in This Particular Set??" It would surely make 42099 too innovating for Lego's liking porbably. New wheel hubs, electrics, "biscuits" and imagine this heavy-duty differential as well! BTW, our Lego Ambassador explained to me that "All new electric parts are "Powered UP" family. "Control Plus" is just the name of the app." A train hub, "Boost" hub, this "C+" hub, even 6-port "Spike" hub can work together, he said, in the PU app since version 3.0.0 release a couple of weeks ago. Indeed they do up to 4 in one program.
Thanks for your video! Could you please have another video comparing the new differential and the old one? I think many of us are really interesting in this new part. Thanks again!
Just picked up an Axial SCX24 micro crawler for $115. Fully modifiable. Amazing little vehicle. So glad I got out of LEGO. There hasn’t been anything worth buying since the orange Porsche.
Maybe a correction to the release as it was for end of December I could find it just before Christmas at a retailer store. I bought it because it looked good, even told myself to wait on your review to know what the set was worth! Should have wait! I have the same feelings you have.
Obviously a completely different thing so I don’t think they are comparable - but I know what you mean. The powered-up motors and hub on their own are most of this cost though.
They really should focus more on the model's performance. I mean, you get all these really cool looking race cars, and they only go about 2 MPH and get bogged down on carpet. Come on!
There are Chinese alternatives to the 5292 buggy motors. I bought 2 of them from "your world of building bricks" for $19 each. I think the brand was "Sembo". They definitely work but the 9v box can't power it under load for more than a few seconds. I just got a buwizz 2.0 so we'll see how that goes. I've never owned a Lego buggy motor so I can't compare them, but they are way more powerful than any PF motors I have. Search UA-cam for "Sembo monster motor", you'll find some reviews.
Hello Sariel, I think you should reupload the video of the 4x4 Jeep Wrangler trailcat that you have on lego ideas so you can get more support, I know this is unrelated to this video but I’d really like to see it become a lego ideas set
As a donor set it wouldn't be worth a 5 star because you are paying for the Top Gear name and that increases the price for all of the parts. There will be other sets with the new differential and the control plus parts are better from the 42099
I doubt a really fast 1/8 size lego car is actually possible. The motor power needed to move that weight would probably be more than the lego components can actually withstand. It would chew through gears and axles needing continual replacements.
Johan Sten that’s why I was hoping Lego would make a powerful enough rc motor- like thoes really old buggy motors but idk- I’m currently in the process of adding actual rc components to my Bugatti Chiron
@@Aj-894 Like I said, a motor strong enough to move the Chiron or similar at speeds that would actually feel fast would absolutely *shred* the gears! The plastic components simply aren't built to handle those forces!
the new diff just gave me a box of ideas. like you could put a thin bevel gears inside of just the red 28 tooth gear, or drive the red gear with a worm gear or with double bevel gears but as regular spur gears. I bet a thin 20 tooth bevel gear fits just inside of the red gear on its own
I wonder why lego doesn't do a modular controller device using bluetooth or whatever system the brick uses. For me and probably for others here it might be a better option than a smartphone for that. Sure if we see the Liebherr and what it can do the smart device appears to be great as it can program a lot of things. But for me I like my legos to be sort of "stand alone" I bet people have trouble to make old minstorms to work, or the cybermaster to work. So how is this will hold up ? As for the video game aspect, I think that's completely gimmicky. I'm not saying this is bad or against it. but really for me a lego set is about getting fun with your lego. It's about getting fun with what you are building and fun while you are playing with it. I'm not sure kids will enjoy a 3 kph rally car even if a lego isn't about performance which it didn't do with PF but 7kph would be at least descent for that kind of set.
Lego needs to make tougher parts and/or more powerful motors that will appeal to older audiences who expect more performance out of their Lego Technic vehicles. I really do think there is a market for this. Also, this vehicle's performance is by far the worst I have ever experienced or seen from a Lego vehicle. EVER
I don't think it's that ugly - I personally just can't get over how SMALL it is! And this set is a wasted opportunity to not make this brand-spanking new motor do more in a small set like this. There isn't even any other manual functions, which is obscene for a $130 car.
#bringbackthebuggymotor - maybe ill start manufacturing and selling custom motors and electrics that toast TLG ones. they made the buggy motor at one time so clearly theyre not afraid of the consequences of excessive SPEED AND POWER!!! so can we go back to then please? thanks.
Kids don’t even know how mechanics works... make a set THATS hard that says 16+ on it, make the car go 45 mph put some LiPo batteries or brushless motors. Also you should change up your music a bit it’s a little bit too kuch
CN Gaming a kid would have no trouble building this, even 42056 is easy enough. I’m practically a kid myself, 16 years of age, and well even I’m disappointed with this set. LEGO would have to introduce a faster motor for this to hit a faster speed like e.g. the RC Buggy Motors (45 mph would be overkill though XD)
Was in a Lego shop today. The creator series is waaay better value per piece and has ABC models. I think the current designers just aren't into technic :(
MrAmorti eh I don’t think it’s that I mean look at 42082 that’s really good and the Mercedes Arocs from 2015? Those are sick but we’re getting some pretty lazy designs and what’s a b-model haven’t seen one of them for a while
@@Toa-Ignicus at less than 500 pieces, it's expensive for a donor. So much of the cost is the license and the Control+ stuff. The only thing that actually looks properly interesting is the new differential. I guess there's a couple of the larger rectangular frames too, but I doubt that's worth all this... No suspension or anything...

Can this thing fit in the 42098 car transporter? Someone pls reply
Ima get this
And destroy it
I have this already
I have a guestion can you do a B model of set top gear rally car
I don't want to. It's a really bad set, the 42124 is way better.
Everyone saying the car is ugly, but I honestly can't agree. It's more of a typical rally/hillclimb car...
Lego needs to make tougher parts and/or more powerful motors that will appeal to older audiences who expect more performance out of their Lego Technic vehicles. I really do think there is a market for this. Also, this vehicle's performance is by far the worst I have ever experienced or seen from a Lego vehicle. EVER
I bought for my little nephew
he's so good .............he doesn't need my help
16:30
Because Crawlers don't need any differentials!
Yey its out
12:18 Stig only wears white, then turns to wear black😂
the price for tech pieces is 50 I think
the rest is motor hub
I don't think it's that ugly - I personally just can't get over how SMALL it is! And this set is a wasted opportunity to not make this brand-spanking new motor do more in a small set like this. There isn't even any other manual functions, which is obscene for a $130 car.
Would this fit in the car transporter Lego technic 42098
No.
@@searme with that bombshell back to the drawing table
Some guys are complaining here that this set cost too much and has poor performance hahaha
Wish i could afford one :)

maybe ill start manufacturing and selling custom motors and electrics that toast TLG ones. they made the buggy motor at one time so clearly theyre not afraid of the consequences of excessive SPEED AND POWER!!! so can we go back to then please? thanks.
Can i have one!... seriously i need it and want it my parents wont get it even tho i saved up
Kids don’t even know how mechanics works... make a set THATS hard that says 16+ on it, make the car go 45 mph put some LiPo batteries or brushless motors. Also you should change up your music a bit it’s a little bit too kuch
CN Gaming a kid would have no trouble building this, even 42056 is easy enough. I’m practically a kid myself, 16 years of age, and well even I’m disappointed with this set. LEGO would have to introduce a faster motor for this to hit a faster speed like e.g. the RC Buggy Motors (45 mph would be overkill though XD)
LEGO is never going to make a 45 mph car and I'm sure you'll find that Mute button eventually.
Kru Mic and even if it were possible, axles and gears would suffer damage from high friction, after all plastic has its limits
anyone know if this fits the car transporter 42098?
It doesn't.
@@searme I think it's too big due to size.
A buwizz in there would be so much better
Rtc steering?
Yes.
Its nice you can control it with your phone but the fact it doesnt come with a remote controllers is just lazy and cheap..
lego Is getting really lazy with technic now and it really annoys me
Was in a Lego shop today. The creator series is waaay better value per piece and has ABC models. I think the current designers just aren't into technic :(
MrAmorti eh I don’t think it’s that I mean look at 42082 that’s really good and the Mercedes Arocs from 2015? Those are sick but we’re getting some pretty lazy designs and what’s a b-model haven’t seen one of them for a while
@@ozziefz2161 exactly, those are a few years ago now. Maybe someone left the company now they just get this junk, and no B models.
MrAmorti mmmmm maybe it’s pretty disappointing
*WHEW* glad I saw this before buying one; NOT the best effort by LEGO....
for 130 you get a smart rally car!
very cheap
1 star for design? isnt looks so terrible
Give it a BuWizz module and some buggy motors. < < U P G R A D E > >
There's no room.
@@searme Sheesh, that sucks. So if anything, it's a good parts set.
@@Toa-Ignicus at less than 500 pieces, it's expensive for a donor. So much of the cost is the license and the Control+ stuff. The only thing that actually looks properly interesting is the new differential. I guess there's a couple of the larger rectangular frames too, but I doubt that's worth all this... No suspension or anything...
Are u polish ?
Combo x3
So the massive price is more than likely due to the licensing and the control+ kit? As the car itself is an absolute joke by the looks.
