Hi from the UK. I've just finished doing all these mods to my Q2 MT Flux only in gold. I also replaced the camber arms to adjustable ones along with adjustable steering arms which are available as a full set (MV150469) I think it makes a noticeable difference to the steering, seems more direct. Started watching your channel recently, helps alot being new to the hobby, thanks and have a "Happy New Year".
Any outer diff gears (bevel gears)?Mine broke after 4lipos just driving on grass. Car is useless without an upgrade there... I am not even driving mine anymore. Affraid of breaking it again. Have 50+ rc's, but have never had this issue. It's ridiculous
@AussieRCPlayground I would say check your diffs. Mine were not clicking or making any funny sounds or anything. But several teeth were missing both front and back diff. Other users and UA-camrs (I believe Kaosrc, he made a video about it) are having the same issues, while others are saying the car is bullet proof. Hope you have better luck with yours, but am curious what you will find if you check your diffs after a couple of runs :)
@@Lander76 might be. Had to tighten it a couple of times since it comes loose really easily. To a point where it is slipping constantly and the car does not accellerate properly anymore. Wheelies are out of the question. I think I have it just right now. But as I said, it might be. Not normal as well that it comes loose like that. Really regret buying this car. It does handle well though
I've been searching for anyone upgrading their HPI Jumpshot Flux RC car and can't find anything at all. I've already ordered the aluminium shock set and a new 22kg servo. I'd love to see a full upgrade on the Jumpshot - If you can get HPI to send you the bits for that, would be awesome
Nice one Vass, it's always a pleasure to watch one of your videos mate.! I don't have one of these yet but my MT10 is starting to get a bit tatty & this looks like a good replacement.!! 👍 👍 A belated Merry Christmas & a premature Happy New Year.! 😉 😂 Stay safe out there mate & the very best wishes from Scotland 🏴 🙏 ❤️ 📻 🕹️ 🔋 🚗 🚖 🚕 🚔 🚚 🚙 🚘 🚓 🚒 🚑 🚐 🚎 🚤 🚁 🛩️ 👍 👍 👍
Getting old sucks! 😁 Also, running downstairs to stop your dog from barking while you're trying to film and doing multiple takes should be mandatory training for deep divers. 😆
This weeding is horse spit! I live in America and we cant get half of that . What gives, HPI? ive only got 5 mavericks, one of which i only bought to rob it of parts . Sad
How do you like this style of HPI racing RC 's ? Do they require a bunch of upgrades from the start to keep them from basically braking parts with every battery pack or are they decently durable 🤔 ?
I've not had too many issues with HPI in recent times. Like every other RC, if you don't abuse them to extremes, then they'll be just fine. I honestly don't think they're any different or better than other RCs on the market when it comes to durability. There's an argument to be had regarding design, style, parts support, ease of use and maybe even power, but they have made improvements recently and at least here in Australia, they're well priced and among the cheapest in their class.
I love videos like this, awesome stuff. Happy New Year Vas!
Very great detailed review. Is there a center diff upgrade?cheers

Thank you so much and thank you for that part number, much appreciated. Happy new year to you too. 😎
Always enjoyed these RC Pit Stop episodes. Love from India.
Thank you so much. 😊
Thanks, Vas. Always really enjoyed the RC pit stop series of videos.
👍😎👍
If you need to apply heat to a screw to melt threadlock you can use a soldering iron. Saves melting surrounding plastic and what not.
Love the video
I LOVE RC PIT STOP 🔥
Great build video 👍👍
Thanks. 😎
Great video as usual! Just got one of these so this will come in handy! Will be keen to see how yours runs after the upgrades.
Thanks. Yeah, should be fun to see how it goes. 🙂
way to go hpi !
Awesome Vas 👍 I haven't seen a video like this in a really long time bro 👍 this is great thank you !

Im going to upgrade the steering assembly for my brushless Mojave Grom, its very similar to this but a bit more of a faff.
I would like to see a center diff upgrade replacement

Not that I'm aware of, but I don't think I've had that issue yet. We'll see how this one goes when I take it out.

Maybe your slipper is too tight bud?

@@beman87 The best way to set your spur is to pin the car down by it's wheels and you should just be able to turn the spur gear over by hand.
Wonder if that motor would handle a 16 tooth
TBH, the only reason I didn't change it was because I didn't have one on hand. 😁 But I'm sure it'll handle it.

Although the old model was made of cheese, the older model looked cooler. I would be looking for the old shell and wheels then it would be so badass

It Needs Stronger Differential ring gear
This weeding is horse spit! I live in America and we cant get half of that . What gives, HPI? ive only got 5 mavericks, one of which i only bought to rob it of parts . Sad
😟 Wow, that is bad. I thought HPI has a strong presence in the USA, that's actually surprising to hear...
Boo hoo dude, arrma and traxxas costs us more in pounds than you pay in American dollars over here in the uk.
Looks like all that upgrade cost can buy another Maverick.🤷♂️ Maybe even 2 Maverick, almost. 🤔

Just buy a better car would be cheaper
Tell that to all the Traxxas owners out there and let me know what they say. 😏
Imo there's only one better in the class and thats an MT10, which is nearly £100 more expensive.(the mods cost less than half that)
