Man thank you for this freaking video I've been trying to find something on this specific car because it's either getting this or the Arma Kraton for almost double the price
Tonight is a good night to rip outside with the full ish moon and cloud cover looking like a lit canopy . The difference between a full moon and no moon is easily noticeable. I like how new bearings coast forever is what I was checking . So smooth with new bearings and new diff oils and tires refreshes an RC . Actually going over everything really breathes a new life into RC s .
@@JayTeeRC hey bud me and my son are just getting into the hobby..have any RC Buggy u could donate for my Non Profit (EmpowerMarion) in Ocala Fl?.. Getting these young guys from the HOOD off the streets and getting them excited about the world of RC!! I only have 2 cars at the moment and 1 needs some shop work…Love your Channel!!! Thanks in Advance Bro!!
This is literally a bigger MJX. Looks exactly like all my 1/14th scale MJX’s that ate too much. Not saying that it’s a bad thing, just saying ME LIKE-A-LOT! Just kidding Jay but it does look exactly like all my MJXs. I do like the way they look!!🤷🏻♂️🙂👍👍💯💯💯
I'll be honest, I have the new MJX 10208 V2, and this hosim is nowhere near as good. I'm reviewing both now, it's very very tough, but it's not as good as the MJX. It did appear that the car JayTee has actually had fluids in it. Mine was bone dry, diffs, shocks , all of it was bone dry.
@@JayTeeRC it's able to run 4s, but you'll see pretty quickly why it's not a good idea. Those diffs need so much tuning to even effectively run the 3s it comes with. Let alone 4s, and you'll be able to see what I mean in about an hour
It actually doesn't look that bad. I like the metal chassis, the metal drive shafts and the beefy links. The shocks are a pleasant surprise but internal c clips and such are what usually fail. Overall I would say its worth that or maybe 200. Still a lot of plastic of unknown origin. Does it have glass in it? Is it flexible? lots of questions. And the fact that they cant glue the tires right out of factory is sad.
I have been patiently waiting for someone to review this car for like 2 weeks now. I've been looking ag grabbing it for my i yr old son. Who currently has the hosim I think x05 the brushed version of this truck and he hates that it's " slow " to him bc dad has a bigger faster redcat lol. So I'll wait for a couple more videos I hope and then check it out. BUT he also wants a traxxas Bandit. So someone help with the choice plz
I got to make sure I can find a battery that's going to fit. I'll try to get it done in the next day or two sorry about that I thought I had something that I could run
@@JayTeeRC I guess I'm not allowed to post an Amazon link on here? My comment went away. 🤦🏻♂️ Perhaps a t connector two battery adapter so that you can run two 2s batteries for 4S.
Ordered this and a couple four c batteries with nice high discharge rates. The discount basically took care of the taxes that they now charge on the internet.
@@JayTeeRC wrong ones... Too big. 🤦🏻♂️ going to have to see if they will work in another car instead. Amazon had hoovo 6200mah 120c on sale and I did not check the dimensions. Incorrect connectors as well. But I think I'm going to remedy that because this motor really needs more discharge. I do like that there's almost an inch of space behind the motor so we might be able to put a longer motor in there as well. 😊
I like how they did the graphics on the body shell: nothing too crazy with wavy lines and colors everywhere. I'm looking at you, Traxxas.
😊😇
Almost 100K my brother!!!!
ikr...😭😭! trying hard to get there!

@@hotrod6728 may be able to help. Do you have IG? Reach out to me there
@@JayTeeRC I do have IG I just forgot my handle. Not on social media much..lol
Yes sir this car is pretty good and it happens to come in several varieties (brands). I have one of the XLF models all metal and wow.
Does the XLF version come with Phillips head or hex screws?
80wt Oil will help out in the handling performance
yes it will

So far so good on this one. I do want to try 4s if it's capable. I have to look at a couple more things to make sure

So... It is worth the $250?@@Rek_Rc
@@Metallica269 flat out no, and if you give me about an hour, I'll prove it. Uploading now.

Will the tires being completely fail I think that a lot of this is due to more oil needing in the differentials

I Love my Hosim X07W!
Not to bad for a cheaper car wish they would get hex hardware and be done with the Philips.....
What happened to the 4S run????

Did I miss the side by side size comparison with the kraton?
No my bad I just forgot it

Which batteries did you order?
