Absolutely couldn't agree with you anymore..to .any people are stuck in that negative and bashing mind set.. I greatly enjoy your reviews.nice honest review 😊
It's surprisingly capable for such a small rig, you were a bit hard on it to start with, but came to the right conclusion in the end. Yes it's slow for adults but it's not made for us hardened rc guru's, it's made for the child in us all. 'Love it for what it is' well said my man.😊😊😊😊
Great energetic review. I'm 50, and my inner 7 year old thinks this thing is really cool. It might not be a great rock crawler, but it has great scale detail and lights everywhere. Also...Adding a video clip of Donald Sutherland from Kelly's Heros......Awesome!
Great review.i got one should be in any day now...I think it can be a nice scale complement to the other 1/18 like fms ...but few upgrades could be really cool
The body is cool on this one aswell and has some sweet lighting to (: I heard people say you can use babyoil for the smoke box, it´s cheaper easy to get and gives off a nice smell as a free bonus. Love your videos (:
I like this little truck! It looks fantastic and keeping expectations realistic, it performs quite well out of the box. An easy Christmas gift for any 4Runner owners out there.
Another amazingly put together video. I agree with you tbf, if you just take it for what it is, and enjoy the scale/detail, it's a fantastic thing to mess around with! The lights on the dash are so cool as well! As you say, a kid would absolutely love this thing, such a cool little car 😊👍
My first time visiting your channel and it was this video. LOVE IT. Really enjoy your energy and attention to detail - two things that are not often well-mixed on youtube. Nice one, RC bro!
That was actually very fun,the inter kid did come out and yes,,,I have to vacuum underneath my work table just to find the missing parts and pieces I've dropped on the floor!!!😊
the younger me would totally have fun with this until i break it and then cry myself to sleep, the older me would probably put some beefier looking wheels if possible and use it as a display piece because it looks cool
Great video man... hilarious intro 😂 I can't believe it survived that real looking crash from 3ft! 😅 totally agree, there's no toys in our kids shops for that price that come anywhere near the features/quality. That's why I love what I do, sharing the best of these affordable Chinese made entry-level RC's 👌 keep up the excellent work💪👍
Nice commentary! HG Trasped has some nice vehicles, but they definitely need improvement on their electronics. Check out the P411 Pro. 👍🏻😁 Like I always say, just have fun!!
Cheers man! You gotta take the good and the bad together. In the end it's about the fun YOU have with it. Every RC has it's place for something or someone. 👍
When I was growing up matchbox cars are the only thing we had my older brother got a slot car track & cars & I was mesmerized by them but I wasn’t allowed to touch them so something like this would’ve blown my mind.🤯
Pretty nice little car, dude! Awesome ride and review!!! 😃 But you know what... It could be an interesting project! I don't know, but I wonder if a brushless motor would fit in there... Get rid of the back steering and stuff like that, you know? It could be fun! Anyway, stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
its pretty cool for what it is and its realistic looking for sure. cant say the full size version would do any better on a similar course. sort of have to temper expectations for sure, but i was actually rooting for it to get through the mud haha
RC-TNT modded his and is in love with it. He is supposed to be dropping a video about all the things he did etc. He dropped some good ideas for inspiration to mess with it.
Hey dude you should come out to the Drift track in Cloverdale! Eighty 8 RC would love to see ya come out. Also I’d love to follow some of your cool RC’s with an FPV drone. Looks like you’re living where I graduated wouldn’t mind coming out for a visit.
@@disciplinerc hmm I wonder if we met or it was after I got butt hurt about my expensive Yokomo ESC randomly dying after I bought it and disappeared 😂 We are having a comp on May the 4th if you’re down ill send ya a DM for sure
I almost bought one of these but at the time there weren't ANY videos... I must say, I'm 56 and I actually LIKE this... I wonder if you can put different wheels/Tires on this to get a little more clearance.... not talking HUGE... just scale... like scale 30s.. those huge C-hubs hanging down are bound to get hung up on stuff.... What size motor is in it? if it's an N20... maybe an N30 can go in (higher torque)... or if it's a high RPM motor, I wonder if a lower RPM one can be swapped in for more torque Thank you for the Video... this has helped my decision-making
Cheers dude, glad it helped. Not sure the size, but could benefit from something with more torque. Still ripping into it, but 30's would be perfect. Longer shocks would allow them to fit too, the stock one have no travel. A few minor upgrades could really make this alot of fun 😁
A model car with radio control function lol the body probably would fit on a rock van v2 chassis or something similar that's more capable. But from a kids' point of view, it's amazing as is. Nothing compared to the cheap stuff we got in the 90s lol
I like it I’ve seen one other good review & like they say it is what it is it’s almost more of a toy & you can’t expect a lot of performance but I’ll probably get one for the looks alone I’m sure it’s not very expensive.
Its more of a display model rc (not rc would be diecast); Theres toy grade rc of scale display model, and theres hobby grade of scale model (like many crawlers). I think the latter more focused on being an rc, whereas former focused on being a display model.
Another great review sir. I'm going to be giving that a hard pass but you get a lot for your money in that one. Hope your channel keeps growing mate....you deserve much more UA-cams money for these videos!
Great review of this little forerunner👍👍👍✅✅✅Was thinking about getting one as it is hard to find any other forerunner bodies for 1/18 other than FMS, this is the only one with doors that open that is pretty cool. Can you set it so it doesn’t four wheel steer?
Yeah the guts aren't the best at all, but the body is actually pretty cool. Haven't had the chance, but would still like to mount it on a 1/18 chassis to see how it would look
lol, i'm sorry just the visualisation of seeing you in an empty field recording this little turd of an RC car is hilarious. thank you for this stunning review of barely a hobby grade RC car haha...
It is kinda cool but. They put so much effort into the detail, loads of cool features, shock filled suspension, then they put no travel on the suspension like why why bother going to all that effort then zero travel suspension and making it underpowered. A better motor and suspension travel wouldn't push the cost to high ffs.
@disciplinerc It's the fact it would hardly have cost them anything to make it better gets me. I was just watching thinking why spend so much time on the details which coasts in the time it takes to get the details that dialled in. You'd think they'd spend a few extra pounds on the drive train, also the sounds and how cheap they can have these things made in China it probably would only work out at like £5-£10 extra a car to make it perform decently and for a highly detailed vehicle that performs decent people who are into their small scale crawlers will pay. They'd sell way more. They're definitely missing a trick.
Love your channel man, but we gotta stop supporting and advertising for these cheap, unlicensed rip offs. These companies have no interest in the hobby and do not help support the hobby overall.
Honestly a little research with these offbrands rc are often worth it. Not everyone has the means to afford the high-end brands like traxxas/arrma/losi/ta I can go on. These cheaper cars allow more individuals to be welcomed Into the hobby without forking $300+ just to see if you like the hobby.
✌🏻😎🏴 Truth is if you are buying things like this from unlicensed dealers you are supporting criminal activity & putting reputable dealers out of business & destroying your own economy.

Cheer man, sometimes we have to put the negative aside and just have fun 😊

Thanks dude! Sometimes we lose sight of that. Was nice to just play like a kid 😁
Great energetic review. I'm 50, and my inner 7 year old thinks this thing is really cool. It might not be a great rock crawler, but it has great scale detail and lights everywhere. Also...Adding a video clip of Donald Sutherland from Kelly's Heros......Awesome!
Yes!! I'm glad someone else besides me got a kick out of that clip 😅👍
Great review.i got one should be in any day now...I think it can be a nice scale complement to the other 1/18 like fms ...but few upgrades could be really cool
The body is cool on this one aswell and has some sweet lighting to (: I heard people say you can use babyoil for the smoke box, it´s cheaper easy to get and gives off a nice smell as a free bonus. Love your videos (:
Cheers! I'll have to try that out 👍
great video, that interior is so cool! Can’t lie the dashboard lights look crazy scale it’s impressive!
Fully agree, that is the way to look at it. For little kids it is a blast 👍🏻
👍👍
100%
I like this little truck! It looks fantastic and keeping expectations realistic, it performs quite well out of the box. An easy Christmas gift for any 4Runner owners out there.
Agreed 💯👍

My first time visiting your channel and it was this video. LOVE IT. Really enjoy your energy and attention to detail - two things that are not often well-mixed on youtube. Nice one, RC bro!
Cheers dude, appreciate the support. This UA-cam game isn't for the faint of heart 😅🤘
I love the detail put into this thing. Wish I could get a 1/10 hardbody 4Runner
That was actually very fun,the inter kid did come out and yes,,,I have to vacuum underneath my work table just to find the missing parts and pieces I've dropped on the floor!!!😊
I hear that. Sometimes if I drop something, I just call it gone forever 😅
Great review of the whole rig
Thanks my guy!! 🤘😎
the younger me would totally have fun with this until i break it and then cry myself to sleep, the older me would probably put some beefier looking wheels if possible and use it as a display piece because it looks cool
It's a looker for sure. I think some sweet rims and a bigger motor would make a world of difference
Great job of reviewing as usual 👍. Think you are spot on with latter thoughts 💭. Keep up the great work
Cheers brother 🙏🙏
The imagination is what does it for me. I loved being a kid and when a toy had limitations, my imagination would fill in the rest
once again that GTR in the background super cool! 😎
🤘😎🤘
Well done!
🙏🙏

Nice commentary! HG Trasped has some nice vehicles, but they definitely need improvement on their electronics. Check out the P411 Pro. 👍🏻😁 Like I always say, just have fun!!
Yeah that thing is amazing. They do make some great RC's but this lineup needs more work still 👍
Thats a great statement brother "Lets enjoy it for what it is".... Everyone here should review RC's with that mindset! Great review!
Cheers man! You gotta take the good and the bad together. In the end it's about the fun YOU have with it. Every RC has it's place for something or someone. 👍
I love all the scale fun this has to offer! Great review friend!
Thank you! 🙏😊
That body mounted to a trx4m chassis would be siiiick 🤘
When I was growing up matchbox cars are the only thing we had my older brother got a slot car track & cars & I was mesmerized by them but I wasn’t allowed to touch them so something like this would’ve blown my mind.🤯
Totally get that too bro. Never had such cool things back then either 👍
Pretty nice little car, dude! Awesome ride and review!!! 😃
But you know what... It could be an interesting project! I don't know, but I wonder if a brushless motor would fit in there... Get rid of the back steering and stuff like that, you know? It could be fun!
Anyway, stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Spot on review and nice sunset footage! Top notch content
Thank you my brother 🙏 🙏
its pretty cool for what it is and its realistic looking for sure. cant say the full size version would do any better on a similar course. sort of have to temper expectations for sure, but i was actually rooting for it to get through the mud haha
Nice review, and based on the comments, most people get it. Healthy people don't judge themselves by the toys they own.
What a NERD YOU ARE…. Your AWESOME!!
🤓🤘
That sunset shot is sexy, good work bro
Cheers brother!! 🙏😊
wonder job on the chase/following camera work on the truck! Very steady cam!
Cheers dude, appreciate the feedback 😁👍
That's also an interesting truck, nice unboxing bro! 👌
RC-TNT modded his and is in love with it. He is supposed to be dropping a video about all the things he did etc. He dropped some good ideas for inspiration to mess with it.
Nice! I'll have to check it out
Not much interest in the toy but your videos never disappoint. Thanks
All good dude, I get it 😁 Thanks for the support🙏👍
Hey dude you should come out to the Drift track in Cloverdale! Eighty 8 RC would love to see ya come out. Also I’d love to follow some of your cool RC’s with an FPV drone. Looks like you’re living where I graduated wouldn’t mind coming out for a visit.
Yes and yes!! I was part of the underground setting up carpets with Chi back in the day. Would love to do some FPV stuffs. Shoot me a DM 🤘😎🤘
@@disciplinerc hmm I wonder if we met or it was after I got butt hurt about my expensive Yokomo ESC randomly dying after I bought it and disappeared 😂
We are having a comp on May the 4th if you’re down ill send ya a DM for sure
Nice video dude! Keep making these bangers
Copy that!
I accidently founf your content and you make great content. Keep up the good work❤❤🎉
That's the best kind of accident to have 😂 Glad you have you along 😁👍

For the record. Hg toys start with "hg" ie hg p802 or hg p411
Love this video and your content always much love
Thx bro!! 😁
they are beautiful.😃😱 should have it on skala 1/10.
ive been wanting to get one, i saw the drop last month and thought it had some really cool details!
It could be great with a bunch of work, the body is amazing 🤩
@disciplinerc is it like FMS under it? I feel like this is a good buy.
A model car with radio control function lol the body probably would fit on a rock van v2 chassis or something similar that's more capable. But from a kids' point of view, it's amazing as is. Nothing compared to the cheap stuff we got in the 90s lol
Totally agree, and even the stuff I see at toy stores can't really compare 👍
Erm, HG is on the door of the car!
👍👍
I have one it's fun and the kids love it 😁
Perfect!! 👍
Man i love the ammount of memes u put into the video, great sense of humor!!
Cheers brother! Glad you liked 🤘
I like it I’ve seen one other good review & like they say it is what it is it’s almost more of a toy & you can’t expect a lot of performance but I’ll probably get one for the looks alone I’m sure it’s not very expensive.
What is the wheelbase on this? I'd be interested in just throwing the body onto a better platform. Maybe FCX18 or TRX4m.
Would love to see it hit 20
🤔🤔🤔 I think I can make that happen 😜
Where have you been young man! I think the rear wheel only steer is twerk mode maybe? Great video!
YES!! 🙌😂
Its more of a display model rc (not rc would be diecast);
Theres toy grade rc of scale display model, and theres hobby grade of scale model (like many crawlers).
I think the latter more focused on being an rc, whereas former focused on being a display model.
Copy that
Another great review sir. I'm going to be giving that a hard pass but you get a lot for your money in that one.
Hope your channel keeps growing mate....you deserve much more UA-cams money for these videos!
Aw thanks dude! Appreciate that a lot. I agreed, the body is actually really sweet 😊
Great review of this little forerunner👍👍👍✅✅✅Was thinking about getting one as it is hard to find any other forerunner bodies for 1/18 other than FMS, this is the only one with doors that open that is pretty cool. Can you set it so it doesn’t four wheel steer?
Yeah you can toggle the modes for just front wheel steer 👍
Thanks👍
Might need to get it to match my 4runner.
Nice!! Do it 😄👌
Awesome Review my Friend ❤
Thanks my dude 🙏
You're welcome my Friend
💪🏻🐼💪🏻🐻❄️👌🏻
And your Cool and Fun Vídeo helps me a lot! I learn a lot thks ❤
I just bought it! Is yours also faster on reverse than forward?😭
Btw you Just need water to make it smoke just regular water
Ah good to know, thanks 👍
Looks awesome but I get what your saying rc bloke to a kid man 100% still very cool
👍👍
Truthfully I would only take the esc out and use it for the rear steer on a lcg rock crawler.
My bad, I meant integrated circuit board
Yeah the guts aren't the best at all, but the body is actually pretty cool. Haven't had the chance, but would still like to mount it on a 1/18 chassis to see how it would look
lol who is going to sit in that drivers seat??? 😅😅😅 the steering wheel is on the seat
A legless tiny hero I'm guessing 😂
so nice bro need buy this
🤘😎🤘
I got the fms suzuki jimny Lime Green for $100 on Amazon.
Nice!! That's a great rig. Is it still on sale? 🤔
@disciplinerc 😬 that was like a Christmas special. I wanna say. 🤔
lol, i'm sorry just the visualisation of seeing you in an empty field recording this little turd of an RC car is hilarious. thank you for this stunning review of barely a hobby grade RC car haha...
Anytime my man 😊
I'm not 8 and I appreciate it.
Mind you, mentally i'm only about 8 and i'm easily pleased...
This is why I like you 🤩
Better shocks, better tires, it be a good crawler, the steering modes help big time
Can we upgrade the speed of this?
I'm sure with a different pinion or brushless motor setup you could yes 😁👍
Why 4WS on a scale stock 4Runner!?
Mind boggling I know 😵💫
Almost late!
Thank god..,Anyways!
I really want that rc car!
Heh.
Never too late bro 😁
It is kinda cool but. They put so much effort into the detail, loads of cool features, shock filled suspension, then they put no travel on the suspension like why why bother going to all that effort then zero travel suspension and making it underpowered. A better motor and suspension travel wouldn't push the cost to high ffs.
I completely agree, they put too much focus on the rear steer, lights and sound. The drive train is what counts on these little rigs
@disciplinerc It's the fact it would hardly have cost them anything to make it better gets me. I was just watching thinking why spend so much time on the details which coasts in the time it takes to get the details that dialled in. You'd think they'd spend a few extra pounds on the drive train, also the sounds and how cheap they can have these things made in China it probably would only work out at like £5-£10 extra a car to make it perform decently and for a highly detailed vehicle that performs decent people who are into their small scale crawlers will pay. They'd sell way more. They're definitely missing a trick.
Just wait untill you can't get parts, I'll stick with the name brand company's
Parts are non existent Im sure 😄
Fun video terrible truck lol
😅👍
Thanks for the video. Thank God I cancelled buying this.
Anytime 😂🤘
Love your channel man, but we gotta stop supporting and advertising for these cheap, unlicensed rip offs. These companies have no interest in the hobby and do not help support the hobby overall.
I agree, sometimes they do get it right though. I feel I'm up to the task to weed out the garbage 😅👍
These are the companies making it affordable lol. Good electronics really wake them up
Honestly a little research with these offbrands rc are often worth it. Not everyone has the means to afford the high-end brands like traxxas/arrma/losi/ta I can go on. These cheaper cars allow more individuals to be welcomed Into the hobby without forking $300+ just to see if you like the hobby.
I got suckered in too 40bucks. These ldrc traspeed are sleezy companies. We are paying for their r and d.
I feel you are on the mark with this one 👍
✌🏻😎🏴 Truth is if you are buying things like this from unlicensed dealers you are supporting criminal activity & putting reputable dealers out of business & destroying your own economy.
Came here to say something similar 😅. Stop supporting cheap Chinese rip offs!
You are just a hater. This thing is super cool specifically for that price point.
I totally agree, hopefully you watched the entire video to see my change of heart 😅
Mate buy some decent cars and calm down a bit 🥱
Great idea! 😃
Doesn't even sound like a 4 runner
Same motor sound that the huina dump truck has..
😀👍
