In my opinion you can have way more fun with these little RC cars then you can the big ones. There's so much more nimble controllable and bashable before they break. I'm sure you would agree in some aspects. Keep up the good videos man and I will keep watching for sure.
That double ramp back flip was sick! Sweet little car. Definitely getting one. It's like a monster truck version of a wltoys a959b. Small, fast and cheap.
@@DerbyCityRC Hey Derbi great channel, your video made me get one and arrived today, Did you find the throttle have a pretty noticeable delay? except that its a really nice micro.
I love those small RC cars, have 3 different 1:18 ones from Deerc, Haiboxing and some other noname, but this looks also tempting. Did you try if this one would also take 3S? Curious about this
Just got one yesterday from amazon. One of my front shocks doesnt compress correctly, beyond that I suspected the A arm balls would be an issue and the wheel hub, everything else feels really great. Mine has a clip/single latch on body with reinforcement inside that is really nice, and came with a spare body. Throttle can be funky if you dont adjust the throttle DR and trim to an exacting point. Servo is 3 wire and seems incredibly fast. Pretty sure same manufacturer as MJX.
Nice! Is it the red monster truck looking version? I didn’t think of that. Since I messed with the throttle trim, that could have been my issue. I’m hoping mjx makes their own model but those tie rods are undeniably mjx and the rest of the suspension and of course the body is very similar.
20mph isn't bad to be so small. It looks so fast to me. I like it....we'll everything but the lack of battery options lol Max's reaction to that jump was priceless!
Very impressive! That was some great razzing ! Definitely did not expect it to perform that well , the jumps were intense! Derby City RC approval? I think so 😄
So this is the link lol It shows as some kind of electronic device holder, but the description is correct. This is the exact link I ordered it from but the picture was correct when I ordered it lol. amzn.to/4evOIhb
You could probably make a pair of small aluminium plates or like 1.5mm thickness that connects across too the other side of the shock tower, some longer nuts & have one on each side of the shock tower to reinforce it fully if the bodymount isn't in the way.
I love the channel but I always see these cheap RCs which are near impossible to fix shortly after you buy it, and think, man those dollars would’ve been more well spent on hop ups for my good RCs!
Thanks! Sometimes yes, but this car most likely will have all the parts available. I try not to review junk cars that parts can’t be found for, or atleast warn that I can’t find parts, but JJRC has been good about that. Good comment as that’s definitely a part of the buying process. Thinking about where you want to put your money 👍👍
@@DerbyCityRC Thanks for the kind response! I guess for the price that level of parts support sounds great, but what got me into rc was finding my dads old RC10 from the 80s and still being able to find parts for cheap online. That’s why I really like the idea of upgrading what I like from the big companies knowing eventually it’ll be up there with the best RCs to date and I’ll always be able to get parts to repair my investment even 20 years from now with my kids (possibly) 😁 again I love the channel and this discussion, I appreciate your unique light hearted content
Yup i definitely get that!! It’s all about options and what people want and are willing to spend. I personally like having both high end cars and these cheap options I don’t mind breaking as much lol Glad you like the channel man and thanks!!!
If you’re wantingg for something like this sure. I’d you have a higher budget and want something bigger, I could recommend some other things. Make sure you use my coupon code if you do order this. Should save you around $10
Great content, lots of humor, also nice to see that the children are also enjoying it, Question. Can you use this indoors? I might want to give this to my kids for Christmas
Thanks! You certainly can! I ran that little blue FMS model I showed in the house for the review video on that car. Using that little red ramp and everything.
@@DerbyCityRCNice! Seems like the perfect truck for indoors and outdoors and can be taken anywhere!! I'll watch that video too.. Love your content😁💪 keep it up, I'll keep watching!!
Honestly after owning traxxas losi and other brands, these little rigs taking over the game, zero ego in them, just pure power for every penny you spend while traxxas you pay for the name
Traxxas is an American company. These little RC's are made in China. It's easy to have cheap products when you use slave labor. And while Traxxas might not actually get the plastic bits made here they are made in Taiwan. (no slave labor) Not to mention the customer support. I doubt the people who made this even give a phone number.
I amazed this didn't constantly flip over with its small wheelbase, on turning. Looks like the softish tyres and flexible plastics had a lot to do with it being compliant enough but with tyre grip levels to allow a bit of slide. Looks like a good balance. This looked really fun. I'd imagine if the range was a bit crap and there was a delay its likely the fault of a cheap esc (laggy acceleration)/receiver (im not sure its always the transmitter but would be so difficult to prove one way or the other which was at fault). on cheap stuff I've always used them as a pair and as they came on the vehicle or generally not at all!), either way it'd be to keep overall cost down. Im guessing the esc/server it's an all in one and because its so compact you can't change out the receiver/servos separately? If possible, I'd swap a dumbo rc receiver into it and it'd still be cheap as you like if you already own the transmitter. I can't believe the pasting these things can take these days. I wouldn't have dreamed of sending an old Tamiya off a two foot ramp at full throttle onto concrete and expect it to drive anymore that day.
True it could be the esc. To replace any of it you would need to solder a connector onto the motor leads, and replace the esc and receiver because yes they are one unit. The servo was separate but might also be soldered directly to the esc board. I never had any “real” RCs as a kid, but from what I’ve seen yes they’ve come a loooong way, even just the last few years.
Phillips screws and ball studs need to go away. But the rest of that thing looks super solid! That backflip you did "on purpose" was awesome. 😂😂 And the backflip double jump was incredible! What made it even better was your boy's reaction. 😄 I'm definitely gonna have to order one of these - especially with that coupon!
Nice! Got halfway through your rog1 video and my daughter started puking. It’s your videos fault. I guess she could hear it up two stories at 2am last night and said nope, that’s it! 😂😂 jk. Cant wait to finish it actually!
Does everything my MJX Hypergo 16208 does, maybe more, cause that backflip double jump was sick! But I’ll stick to the MJX for now. Another great video!
I wonder if I can buy an extra set of MJX hypergo axles and nuts and swap the ends of the plastic parts for metal ones, you can do it in the plastic axles brushed MJX but have to swap the center diffs also on them. I think you wouldn't have to do that on this car.
That's a good little.e truck for the ghd price. You gave a rugged test. Making jumps and landings in the parking lot or street would've broken many rc cars and trucks.
$61 for brushless? If it has replacement parts availability as much as the 1/16th scale udirc on road cars (from few years back) then would be very impressed , I thought the brushed udirc/sg1603 was getting alot of rc for what u pay for
I was in UA-cam jail for speaking my mind yesterday so I couldn’t tell you how cool that tiny car is… so, the video was good, not great like usual, but good😳… and the RC is pretty cool👍
Thanks! They do! Check out my “mjx 10208 version 2” video from a week or so ago and I actually show this small little truck on that video. I have the Amazon link in that video’s description! It’s pretty slick!!
Yup! And it’s faster! I’d say the FMS has better suspension, but that might be it. If the 2 speed transmission could shift on the fly, that would be sweet, but it’s just a slow crawl mode basically so not really useful on that car lol
Looks like fun! It won't let me like the video! Get UA-cam manager on the phone. I have questions and demand answers!😅 super phone video man unlike most I really do love small RC! Especially if they spend the time to put decent parts on them. I'll just give you a.👍 in the comments since I can't any other place😆
Those cars are so different. I’d take the Omni over the 18859 any day ever. I do have a video comparing the Omni to the HBX 2997a though. That could be worth a watch if you haven’t seen it.
@aknmtbr I hear ya. It seems every time I ask about the upgraded parts she responds a little weird. I think my rep might be slightly confused because we were also talking about the rally car. Definitely can’t wait for that one!! I’ve got some awesome plans for it!
If they really did all the updates they would want everyone to know this. Avoiding any real answers is a big red flag. I wanted ROG so badly but I don't really believe they changed anything 😞
The new parts show online. Metal hinge pin brackets and the axles look thicker. I may just order them. They might just not want to say it needed upgrades in the first place, but honestly with how quick they made the better parts, that’s quicker than most companies and a good sign. The big brands so running changes too, but not as quick as this. Hoping they add them to the production cars though!
lol no there was a creeping F150 with a ladder rack like mine, a dude taking pictures of his Chevy traverse, and a landscaping truck showed up lol Why do you ask? Lol

If the shocks have too much fluid, it won’t compress. Double check that if you haven’t already figured it out.
