i'm a bit disappointed that people thought the telemetry setup was "gimmicky". that kinda stuff takes some work to add in, even with drones, there's a bit of extra work adding in a positioning system, but by all means, call it a gimmick. i can't believe they received _that_ much negative feedback. From their own and OUR own research, how many of us have gone out and purchased a US$80.00 GPS module with a free app? Give us what we want and we complain. 🤦♂ great reviews btw!
GPS is a gimmick on a car that does 20mph , if it was a ~50mph car that has a platform worth upgrading for even faster speeds then it would not be a gimmick. People were upset because the preproduction models had GPS but were lacking oil shocks for example, they addresed that at least.
@@darkki94 i don't disagree with that point of view. still, we all know, well most of us in the hobby do, the smaller scale manuf. release brushed first, then brushless. in respect to that "marketechture" decision, you're also right in that the gimmick shoulda been added to the brushless release instead.
@@rogueFactor yep , it makes more sense to make the brushed first without the gimmick at a price that would make noise in the community and then release the brushless version with the gimmick for the people that are willing to spend more , or just sell it separately and get A LOT of sales since many people would by it for their models.
If your laughter and the epic noise the car made whilst powering past you is anything to go by then this thing is Epic! If it makes you laugh for the right reasons then it's a keeper. Nice job Mr Tomley Sir.
The brushed was pretty good. Managed to break my hinge pin brace in about two packs but MJX customer service were really helpful in sourcing new parts. The BL looks like good fun.
@@TomleyRC you earned it man! - I've watched a LOT of rc videos, and just can't get through most of them due to the creators... meaning the way the describe the cars, test them, just everything. My buddy will be watching other videos & go- " I'm getting that one!! " I'll check it out & go - Dude!- you better watch Tomley and make sure! EVERY TIME ( 3 so far ) He watches YOUR review, he ends up thanking me & saying- ALL the other channels should be saying the same thing Tomley says!! I simply point to all ( don't laugh) 4 of my cars/trucks & go- he's 4/4 so far !! THANK YOU‼️👍👍
Another great video Phil! With all these great little RC’s coming from abroad it’s a shame regarding the delivery time for damaged parts. Maybe someone should bulk order these cars/parts in and sell to the UK market for a quicker turnaround 🤷🏻♂️ keep up the great work.
I do not have any regrets getting both the MJX 16207 and 16209, they are both awesome RC cars. The only upgrade I want for this is to replace the OE TX RX with a Dumbo RC unit with gyro, this small mod will make these RC's silver medal if not gold medal RC cars.
Hi Phil - great timing, mate! Just got mine in the post this morning so watched this with great interest (as usual!) You did a superb job with the video, all I can do is just follow your lead! Amazing you got that shot with the wheel coming off - I just checked mine and the front wheel nuts are a tad loose. Many thanks for the heads-up, you just saved me losing a wheel! All the best, dude! 😎👊👍
It’s a lot of Fun Mark… all be it a little ‘scatty’ 😅. All 4 (well 3 lol) of my wheel nuts were lose after this run, so worth checking and then checking again half way through. Enjoy it, and I’ll look forward to you video 👌
@@TomleyRC Cheers, Phil, definitely taking the wrench along when running this thing! ...and a couple of spare wheel nuts! Just got a video of the new little DEERC brushless truck to do first, only 2S though!!! Love it if you can pop over when I do this MJX vid, got the "pin" waiting!!! 😅👌👍
These things all look awesome!! MJX seem to be listening to their customers, too! That has to be a good thing. I never really get why the range on some cars/ remotes isn't good! It can't be down to price, as the Dumbo controllers have a massive range!! It'd be good to see them do something a bit bigger. 👍🏻
The fastest small car in my fleet - WL 124016, 85kph or 53mph on 3s. Its a freak show!! You wont wipe the smile off your face mate, Seriously a great buy.
I think that buggy looks great 👌 like a reptiles head huh! Great tires look like they'll last! Lots of people told me lately thier 1/16-1/14 brand new buggies wore off thier tires in five minutes. If I didn't have a Q901 I'd buy it 😎😆
Have you tried the H16BM yet? (Mini not-a-Vorteks) I think that one might be great, but would like to know if the body and wing from the H16E could be fit to it. 🤔
That thing is out of control. It's like a wombat with the zoomies, lol. TH-cam deleted my comment again. So I farted and made a stinky on their head! 😂
I recently got this one and I love it ! But the battery just last 9 - 11 minutes and that’s so frustrating, I have other batteries but they are too large or big, what battery can I buy that fit on this one ? I don’t want the wants that came with I want a 2kmah 3s
Just received mine and this thing is QUICK. Makes a 540 brushed WLToys look like it's standing still even just on the 70% switch. 100% is nuts. But one major annoyance is that on full lock the front tyres foul on the body shell and cause a horrible noise, not too mention likely stretching around the mounting points. Any fix for this?
I know im late to these mjx cars, but how do i get my hands on one of the mini outcast style bodies? Been searching every where seems they were discontinued. Any idea where i can find one?
Hey... Is it possible to bind and program my own receiver and transmitter with the onboard ESC. Is there a description to program the esc or do I have to change it?
Loving your work mate. Keep spreading the word that you can have as much fun with a 200 quid (max) 1/16th as you can with a £1000 1/5 scale car. REspect mate.
Just got one of these.... Have to agree that they are tons of fun.. Reasonably well built and can sustain alot of abuse...just In the terms of fun, it's right up there with my maxx or xrt or infraction 3s
I LIKE the looks Mr T. Seems a durable car. Has the underpinnings of a very good car. Cleaning dust/ dirt out of the hexagon chassis bracing would be annoying but the reason at present for not buying one? Dismal range. It's dreadful............
Wow, these buggies look so good, like you said, the quality is amazing! Besides the range, and the buggy absolutely rip! Nearly 40 mph????? Thats insane for a little guy!
Good little buggy.. which was faster? Your brushless or theirs(don't remember how fast yours is). And I think it looks kinda mean compared to the other buggy bodies. 👍
100th comment, 🤪 awesome review and a animal test run , hand me down trainers lol 😆 😄 great video again as you always make me laugh with you funny comments nice Bashing spot to 😄 😆 have a great day mate 😀
The MJX set they sell you can use on any car. It comes with the module, a 3 channel radio and a 3 channel receiver with a port for the gps. If you click on the "More info here" link Tomley left in the description and scroll all the way to the bottom of the page you can see the gps set.

Yes… had me laughing a lot haha
For what you get, MJX have really impressed me, great video Phil! 😎
Agree. Not much out there that can compete with this at it's current price on Aliexpress (well, at least for us in the UK)
That body is wicked :) love it
I may be the only one, but i actually think it looks awesome!
I do to I bought the truck and run 3s packs and love it , my buddy got the buggy and I think it looks great .
They need to grow this into a 1/12 or 1/10 scale buggy. Separate components is the only way to go, no matter the price. No fail safe?!!
Yeah, didn’t seem to stop when it lost signal, unless I was hitting the throttle without realising
@TomleyRC that seems to happen to me when I'm having fun lol.
I had no idea those little guys even existed. Thanks for sharing because I am going to buy one of those RCs
Nice 👌
The brushed was pretty good. Managed to break my hinge pin brace in about two packs but MJX customer service were really helpful in sourcing new parts. The BL looks like good fun.
Glad to hear they were helpful 👌
That buggy looks super fun to run!!
Monster buggy of awesomeness
Is it a big difference with the latex teton? Go through with the good work, thank you!
I’d have this over a Teton
You have done another excellent video. It's an impressive car. I am anxious to see the truck at the skatepark. Keep up the good work.
Thanks. I’m looking forward to giving the MT a good bash 👌
This little buggy has my attention now. Nice video Phil, and keep them coming!! To the skate park!!!
Just want you to know I like 👍 all your videos. Thank you for putting in the work for us to have a nice show regularly to enjoy and learn. 💯😎
Thanks Ricky, appreciate it 👌
Great review but can you recommend anything to sort out the range thanks
Nice little buggy, quite impressed
Great video! I love the small bashers! Everyone hit the like button! Awesome video mate!
Yes… everyone hit it 👌

Does the 45a esc have a LVC for when you use your own lipo batteries? Or are you just estimating the voltage cut off time?

0916 here in Arkansas USA! Morning Tomley! That bike is sick af. The hyper go are growing on me.
Pretty fantastic little buggy, Phil! 😃
Awesome review and bashing!!!
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Thanks mate
What a little ripper!
If it makes you smile, you're halfway there. Looks like a great budget truggy. Insanely quick too 🤣

Did you have to pay import tax on it - can ya tell me the total cost yo get to your door? Cheers

It'd be good to see them do something a bit bigger. 👍🏻
Yes, shame about the range. But a decent little buggy
Is there room to swap in a Dumbo RC transmitter receiver?
@@jakeb9790 definitely. The Dumbo receivers are really small. 👍🏻😊
I'm debating between getting this or the 144010, for general bashing and also on road. Which would you recommend I buy?
The fastest small car in my fleet - WL 124016, 85kph or 53mph on 3s. Its a freak show!! You wont wipe the smile off your face mate, Seriously a great buy.
I like the way the buggy looks. Has a Tekno ish body. If it had buggy tires it would look much better.
Thx for the review. Ordering one.
Pretty epic but not convinced on its looks . How’s it compare to say the e - revo 1/16 vxl ?
I’ve not owned an E-Revo so couldn’t say 👍
@@TomleyRC fair enough . Thankyou .👍👍👍
In your opinion which is the best mjx rc car ?
Hello Mr Tomley which one do you think is more durable? The 16209 or the 16207 both on 3s
What a great video Tony good information 👏👍
Cheers dude
@@TomleyRC have you checked out my TH-cam channel lately there a few new videos on there I'm doing one now has I speak 😀😉
Best thing I’ve heard all year.
Tomley: “ for those of you who use mupuhu” 🤣🤣❤️❤️ love it bud. And as always I love the little hand. 🤣
What function dose the button on the handle part of the controller do , is it for LEDs or something
All you hear coming out you unit is cheers, banging and laughter ! I’d be wondering what’s going on inside 😂
Fairplay they look decent great video as always dude
Thanks dude
Nice one mate but I have to say I do like how It looks with those oversized tires 😍🤣🤷
So this buggy or that wltoys brushless desert buggy v2 that you took to the beech with paddle tires.
I like both, opinions?
WLtoys Buggy on Sand tyres 👌
@@TomleyRC awesome thank you going to buy that and the tires right now.
Keep up the awesome videos
Looks nice for a little RC buggy
Congrats on 100k!

looks quite impressive that bud, I'm not too bothered how they look as long as they go ok to be fair . can't wait for the next video 👍🐿
Is it hard to control? Looks unstable
That thing is out of control. It's like a wombat with the zoomies, lol. TH-cam deleted my comment again. So I farted and made a stinky on their head! 😂
Nice. I think you are in the habit of finding diamonds in the rough.
I think it looks awesome!
Add a Dumborc (Dumbo RC)transmitter and reciever for massive range, and they're dirt cheap!
Great little car for the price... that range would ruin my day though 😬👍👍👍
Yeah… although was not an issue whilst bashing 👍
I recently got this one and I love it ! But the battery just last 9 - 11 minutes and that’s so frustrating, I have other batteries but they are too large or big, what battery can I buy that fit on this one ? I don’t want the wants that came with I want a 2kmah 3s
Can i put my own receiver and what kind of 3S batteries can i use because it realllyy looks interesting
Yes you can fit you own receiver. I didn’t measure they tray, but plenty of small Lipos about 👍
@@TomleyRC that's good to know thanks
I will try to find some lipos !
Just received mine and this thing is QUICK. Makes a 540 brushed WLToys look like it's standing still even just on the 70% switch. 100% is nuts.
But one major annoyance is that on full lock the front tyres foul on the body shell and cause a horrible noise, not too mention likely stretching around the mounting points.
Any fix for this?
Absolutely mate.. Fit a Dumbo TX/RX with Gyro for about $30. Problem solved.
It's an impressive car, keep it up
Would you buy this over a WL 14010 just to bash around a backyard witha young kid?
That’s cooL
What is the difference in ground clearance between this one and the monster truck version?
Haha, I just bought one by the amount you have laughed!!
Thanks!!
Did you make a video of your 3s conversion?
I know im late to these mjx cars, but how do i get my hands on one of the mini outcast style bodies? Been searching every where seems they were discontinued. Any idea where i can find one?

That is a bit nuts lol Cool video 👍🏼

Cool plates on the land Rover😂
Can I use a Dumbo RC remote on this buggy? Im planning to change receiver.
Speed and Power!
I really enjoyed this one cool cool stuff 👌
Are batteries included or would you have to buy them separately
Yes. Included.
Pretty good!
I wonder if you threw some wltoys wheels and tires on it if you'd gain speed as that wheel and tire package seems pretty heavy
Yeah, I thought the same. May give it a try
I LIKE the looks Mr T. Seems a durable car. Has the underpinnings of a very good car. Cleaning dust/ dirt out of the hexagon chassis bracing would be annoying but the reason at present for not buying one? Dismal range. It's dreadful............

If the 16207 had more battery capacity and a full covered body for more protection at the same price or a little more I would be in.
This is a nice one. Gotta have one now lol.
Noice! Shame about the range though!

Love it I consider it as my next rc, definetly change the radio for a Dumbo RC
Solid little rc ! wonder if the big boys will start making smaller bashers? Like arrma mini 3s range would be cool
I range of Mini Arrmas would be awesome 👌
I'd switch body's but looks decent running it.
Yes, not a good looker
How long dose it take to charge
Still love the hand
I think it looks awesome unless you’re doing bashing with i I’m gonna try some mini b Losi tires for it and see how it handles on an indoor track.
Is it still durabel
What's the bike laying up next to the bench 👀😎?
I’d love to know what your thoughts are on the best sub £150 and sub £100 buggy or truggy?
