Solid list Matt. No complaints here. I was in deep thought the other day, and being a 47 year old teenager myself. It struck me.... Take a look around. How lucky are we to have such a huge, magnificent choice in RC cars?? When I started waaaay back in 1985. The choice wasn't anywhere as big as it is now. Great time to be an RC'er hey!!.
You're 100% right dude! I started racing about 17 years ago and that was before lipos became super popular, I took a large break and everything had changed, we are definitely seeing the rc evolution haha
Great video. I'm new to the hobby. Have my eyes on an X-Maxx or Maxx haven't fully decided. I love big R/C cars but that $1,000 price point is a lot. I saw the Arma outcast 8s on the video and that might be where I'm headed!! Cheers to the great video and possibly saving a little until I feel more comfortable spending over a grand on the X-Maxx. Definitely a new subscriber over here!
This was a great video! The white text things were a really nice touch. Keep the videos coming! And imma try to be more consistent on watching ur vids. Ive kinda been off for a while. lol. Great video!
@@MatthewSimm Not bad. Been busy with school work, so i am kinda limited on time that i can watch videos, and make videos. But I do my best. even if i dont comment 😅. But hbu?
Great list mate everyone is worthy on that list ..... I'd like to see more unique cars like the summit that one is the ultimate fun for me excellent video bro 👊👍💯
Great Top 22 List! Love the MT10 its one of the best 3s ready bashers out there without a doubt and I prefer it over my Arrma Granite plus its cheap in my opinion for what you get!! I see some people saying why recommend cars you dont own well I can confirm Matt does in depth research about each car listed here and I have no doubt his recommendations are spot on! Cheers mate as always great vid!
Hey thanks a million bro! And for the use of your footage 😀 I definitely do need to widen my collection of rc cars but I'm not rich haha and it's reviews like yours that make me confident in recommending some of the rc cars on this list!
Tamiya sales kind of went down since 2020 after covid so they don't really produce products much anymore. It's more like a vintage brand now. That Hornet is super rare.
Will any of these do good against a boxer/lab mix chasing it? Lol I have a bad ankle but i want to give my dog a good run. I figured a dog treat, tape, and one of these would do awesome
My new favorite in my collection is the arrma senton. You can't beat it for the price. Driving it for a month now and I can't break the damn thing haha
@@MatthewSimm thanks for reply mate. Much appreciated. 🙏 Guess that settles it then...XMaxx here we come 🤗 My eldest boy has decided he wants the Arrma Fireteam, so I guess we'll have a Arrma in the stable after all. See how I like the platform and maybe add one of the others down the road.
Man, back in 1990s Team Associated and Bryan with Novak was such a dual and RC car hype. Possibly bc I was much younger. Traxxas had their Stampede and Rustler. Quadzillas we’re all the rage. Serpent Impact had the class of no other (greens and purple anodized whoa). I enjoyed this vod, good to see RC is still around and changing. But can I say, RC10GT 1/10 Nitro for life?! :-)
I'm surprised the Arrma Typhon 6s didn't make the list or even the Typhon 3s. The Typhon 6s is a great basher, great for speed runs, and does pretty good at the track. As for the 3s version, it does everything the Big Rock 3s does, but does it better. But hey, that's just my opinion.
Hmm that's a hard decision, I personally would but I'd maybe keep one. The bigger you go, the more expensive parts will be, so it's good to have a spare rc haha
ok im 13 and im use to walmart ones till recently i got sick of them not lasting a week or not going through grass now i got a vxl slash 2wd and a losi eight-e for 60 bucks together and im going after a traxxas 4 tec 2.0. vxl ima swap from my slash im bouta get then im going to build a f450 hauling truck using a redcat gen 7 cause i cant afford 390 dollar truck cen racing f450
I am new to the RC game. Can someone recommend me a decent rc car for under $80 with parts that can be upgraded/bought online. I want to buy two for me and my sister and they shouldn’t pick up each other’s signal. I‘d appreciate some help a lot
Great video but it’s not much use to anyone. Basically you just listed 22 rc cars I think a top 5 or 10 list would help buyers better Also it’s odd you recommending cars you don’t own as well? Keep up the work. Just a little help maybe for ya
Hey dude, I always update the list at the end of the year with the new releases, I just thought I'd try something different with a top 22 haha. I don't own some of the rc cars but I have used them, besides a couple but I always do my research before recommending any rc car 😀
Traxxas... Durable... Sure. Were is Tamiya, the oldest rc brand? Or Kyosho with the best buggies out there and several world championships? On the crawlers side, do you know the Absima CR 3.4 Khamba? That thing, blows out of the water the TRX-4 in terms of durability, reliability, performance, construction, and features. You should try it. Axial... Meh, but ok. The rival MT10, nice basher. For desert buggy, the FTX DR8, plain and simple. Touring cars? Again Kyosho or Tamiya, Serpent and X-ray. I've been in this hobby for 25 years, I own 307+ models of almost any kind, scale and brand. Not a single Traxxas or Arrma (I got rid of them all). Those brands are just problems behind a smoke curtain.
The list is based off of my own personal experience, ones I've owned or used, although I plan to widen that experience very soon. I have been in the hobby for a good 15 or so years, I mainly raced and then took a break so I'm yet to experience alot more of what is out there. I've heard really good things about the absima and the ftx! Thanks for the recommendations dude, you have definitely given me more rc cars to look at buying 😀
Yeah man, I think it was around 1 billion dollars 💸 I'm not paid by a single rc car company to say anything about their rc cars and I never will be. My list contains the rc cars I'm most familiar with 😀
Thanks for using our footage on the scx6!!! Great list and video sir
Thank you for letting me use your footage haha 😄 you have a great channel!

Awesome RC list
Great list. After almost three years my traxxas rustler 4x4 vxl finally broke 1 part. I find this funny as I bash it around so much.
same bruh shame the motor is on the back with no protection
wow yall must be barely bashing lol, or bashing them super softly
@@stinkmod2297 I think you just said the same thing twice.
@@davisfamilyshenanigans4807 nope, two different meaning
@@davisfamilyshenanigans4807 but similar
Great RC channel Matt
My first RC car was a Tamiya Hornet sometime around 1984. Do they still make them?
Tamiya sales kind of went down since 2020 after covid so they don't really produce products much anymore. It's more like a vintage brand now. That Hornet is super rare.
Hi RC Taz here on my other phone. That bronco is wicked
Nice list
I love your Ahseecah list!
LOL
Will any of these do good against a boxer/lab mix chasing it? Lol
I have a bad ankle but i want to give my dog a good run. I figured a dog treat, tape, and one of these would do awesome
Very very good job! 👍👊💯
Thank you
Solid vid as always. Do you know if there is an upgrade diff and pinion for the 104009? Standard ones are made of cheese!
Hey dude, I'm not sure of any upgrades yet, sorry mate.
My last car was a astute like early 90s so what has changed since then?
My new favorite in my collection is the arrma senton. You can't beat it for the price. Driving it for a month now and I can't break the damn thing haha
Great list of cars.
Thanks dude! What's your favourite?
Thank you i wanted a rc car but i didint know what to buy
No hobao or HPI..?
Great video really think about getting the scx 6 I just like big rc and that has put me off crawlers a little bit in the past
Gotta love big rc cars!
I really want a big crawler too, but I'm seeing if traxxas will make a 1/5 trx4 haha 😄
@@MatthewSimm that would be so cool
@@MatthewSimm hopefully traxxas sees this hahaha
Arrma Kraton 8s, Arrma Outcast 8s or Traxxas XMaxx. Bout to drop some coin on one of these, but not sure which way to go!!!
Man that's a tough call, I personally love the Xmaxx and with m2c now making Xmaxx parts, it's going to be hard to beat!
@@MatthewSimm thanks for reply mate. Much appreciated. 🙏
Guess that settles it then...XMaxx here we come 🤗
My eldest boy has decided he wants the Arrma Fireteam, so I guess we'll have a Arrma in the stable after all.
See how I like the platform and maybe add one of the others down the road.
The Rival MT10 is brilliant. I love mine
A great rc car!
I was wondering if you can get me the traxxas slash vxl 4x4 fox addition
What about ARRMA Fireteam??? It is the newest and coolest in 2022.
Man, back in 1990s Team Associated and Bryan with Novak was such a dual and RC car hype. Possibly bc I was much younger. Traxxas had their Stampede and Rustler. Quadzillas we’re all the rage. Serpent Impact had the class of no other (greens and purple anodized whoa). I enjoyed this vod, good to see RC is still around and changing. But can I say, RC10GT 1/10 Nitro for life?! :-)
i would like some SERPENT And KYOSHO in that list..have you ever tried serpent truggies??or kyosho buggies..
I have used Kyosho but not in a long time 😞
thats what im saying not 1 kyosho on list or ecx even
I'm surprised the Arrma Typhon 6s didn't make the list or even the Typhon 3s. The Typhon 6s is a great basher, great for speed runs, and does pretty good at the track. As for the 3s version, it does everything the Big Rock 3s does, but does it better. But hey, that's just my opinion.
It’s really good 👍
I think the typhon is a bit underrated
Myself and a few of the lads think a 1/5 rustler would be the nuts, Traxxas need some new big rigs. Nice selection dude 👊
That would be awesome dude! 👌
Looks like 2022 is a great year to be into RC cars...
Love yr TOP vids👍
Maybe the e revo 2, or Summit.. maybe.😑 (comments, input wanted) I'm a speed basher😁mostly.
Already have 2 Mojave and 2 Baja rey👍
Hey thanks mate 😀
Oh nice, good rc cars! Which one do you prefer? I love my Mojave!
@@MatthewSimm Both😁. but my custom mojave takes the cake♥💪

What rc cars would you be giving up?
@@MatthewSimm thunder tiger eb4, tamiya grasshopper, hpi micro rs4 and a drone plus quite a bit of cash
Hmm that's a hard decision, I personally would but I'd maybe keep one. The bigger you go, the more expensive parts will be, so it's good to have a spare rc haha
@@MatthewSimm I got loads of RCs just getting rid of ones I don’t use if I were to get the mojave
1:53 Right when you said its rather durable, if you watch the landing a piece goes flying 😂
🤣🤣
I have the first one
Really cool spot at 7:25 🤘💀🤘
Soo much fun bro! I love going out bush sometimes but the clean up is harsh haha

Nope, not sponsored dude
What's up Matt 👍

Just enjoying life trying to put my rc car back together
Nice dude! Hope it goes well 😀
Which is the cheapest and most durable speed is not a factor since I’m it’s for my son who’s 5 yr

And what about the jlb cheeta?

I don’t think it matters what version of the Maxx it is
Suprised the outcast 8s isnt in there 😫
Traxxas XO-1 ???
You sound like Maker's Muse.
Haha, we are both from Australia 🇦🇺
I bet todays date you would have the new Sledge in the bunch
I am new to the RC game. Can someone recommend me a decent rc car for under $80 with parts that can be upgraded/bought online.

Is the RcTown HS18311 still a solid choice for what i need?
Down mildura skate park, fair enough
Haha 😄 I guess you're from Mildura?

No Nitros made the list?....or do ya have a separate video on that?

Haha I get this comment every year 🤣 I'll make an updated one at the end of the year with all of 2022s new releases 😀
No sbr2.0 ? That should be top 3
The list is not in order, from worst to best.
WL Toys are THE BEST!
Cheetah is not in your list?
No it's not sorry dude

Do u live in australia.
Yes 😀
@@MatthewSimm same there’s hardly any youtubers in australia and yes I know stock is hard in australia 😢
