This truck is actually great for the price. It really wakes up with a 3s battery though. It is super durable and has taken a serious beating. It took me about 20 days of hard bashing before shearing a cup from the diff. $10 part and back in action. (I actually bought a whole second truck since it would arrive faster than the part and I would have a whole set of parts... but then I ordered the part too and now have 2 full trucks or 1 and a whole set of parts. :) ) Using the 3s gives you more control in the air as well as obviously more speed. Significantly more. Not sure what the deal is but some of these are slightly different out of the box depending on the distributor. My first one seemed faster on 2s than the newer one, and maybe a little heavier even. First one came with parallel adapter and strap to run 2 included 2 s batteries and a snap on battery cover to help waterproof when running a single battery. Second one came with 2 batteries but no adapter and no snap on cover. Have not taken apart the back half to see if any internals are different. I suspect the motors might be changed between production runs or something.... OK now I made myself curious and will have to look.
I’m trying to stop by at least once a week to watch y’all. I always enjoy you two. Since Daily vlogging I’ve been so busy I miss some of my favorite TH-camrs like you two. I enjoyed this and will try to keep up more so I can hear when the baby is born. Great little truck but I liked the other two motor a little better.
We've missed having you tune in :-) Making videos definitely takes up a lot of time and energy. Always like hearing about a person's experience from this side of the fence, too :-) Have a great day!
After watching you guys battle that hill on many videos , my OCD is screaming for you to just pull out the weeds that get in the way . :) Love the content thanks for all the hard work you put into the channel.
I was hoping for more speed but I guess with a truck of that size that is not one of those "big brands" that it is not bad. This would be great great for one of our younger Grandkids to learn on. I think Nate summed itt up when he said "Sad little truck". Bummer well not everything in the world is perfect. It really is fun trying it out though! As always what I really like about you guys, honest to the end. Later, God Bless!
Hello, Mr.Saylor & Mrs. Saylor!;) Well, I just have to say that this review was very funny & entertaining! (In addition to your excellent review content!) Congrats to the winners! "Your baby is on her way, your busy & have lots to do," so I'll end this here, my friends. Take great care! JP
Hey John! Hope all is well with you too :-) We've been so busy over this last week or so. Trying to make time to reply to comments has been a challenge, but we always make time to at least read them :-) Fun drone video coming tonight :-)
Great video as usual! Hoorah to Gearbest for supporting you guys with giveaways! I hope you get to keep doing all the fun things you do! And hurry up there IMA, the world wants to meet you!!!
Yeah we love that there is still a company or two out there willing to just give stuff away like that. No strings attached, just a quick mention of their name! Awesome! We are super excited for baby "Ima" as well :-) Thanks so much for tuning in my friend!
I have the same truck and I go up a ice hill with this little bugger, its great after paying the lock tight. The hill of ice i go up is bigger then your hill lol.
Hi guys.Joey here.Im known as Mr Straight to the point. It isn't worth more than fifty bucks and it's not four-wheel drive. Great it has two Motors but what good is it if you can't climb a hill.? Overall I give it a five at best. Thanks again to Nate and Abby give the baby a big hug for me from Port St Lucie Florida. Kudos and be well.
@@TheRcSaylors You have a great day to. Is the red cat your friend has a red cat earthquake? I have the same truck so if you have any questions maybe I can help.
@@TheRcSaylors no problem!! Have you guys tried this Rc yet? rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F173542904585 let me know if the link works
I have watched this channel since they had 1500 subscribers, but now they have 150k subscribers. I am so happy that this channel is growing very fast becuase this is a very good youtube rc channel 🙂💪👍.
That is a rebranded Xinlehong 9125. Exact same car. I just took a photo of mine but... can't post it. That said it really is a fun car for a tight area. Be careful though. Grit can get in through the vents on the sides at the back and wreck the gears. You'd have to unscrew and take off the cover to know. I know because it happened to me. I just changed both motors AND the driveshaft this week :) :( Oh, if you want to try a cheaper Redcat I have a Blackout XTE Pro. I wasn't expecting much but it is zippy as heck on 2s. A bit of a challenge to keep upright at times, though. Needs a wider stance.
That GPS can be switched to MPH if you plug it into a pc or laptop. I have one and it works well. I appreciate the comment that it may be 3mph off. Tells me my boats may be faster than I thought. Thanks for the videos.
I know that this is a year later comment 😂 but I'm kind of new at rc cars (like this one). Can you put 1/10 wheels on this or does it need to be 1/12? Thank you if you answer this
if it has 2 motors you should be able to use 4s and be fine, or does it not work like that? Normally the cars with 1 motor use 2s so i was just wondering.
I think the issue would be with the ESC. If the ESC and the motor hold up, you could strip out the gears. But the again, it would be hard to find a 4s to fit in the car.
Other than the body cover, that looks like a double for the XLH 9125 you had on before. But it could handle the hill (before the weeds got as bad probably) and you were concerned about the battery latch which fell off once. Although it looks like the exact same latch system on this one. So, two questions if you continued driving the 9125... A) can the 9125 handle the hill now, and B) have you had any more hatch issues
I have the slightly slower version of this truck, it’s little brother made by the same company (Xinlehong 9116) I am looking to upgrade soon, but worry this might not quite be a good enough upgrade... Any suggestions? My preferred style of driving is “careful bashing” at skateparks😃 Thanks in advance, and thanks RC Sailors, luv ya vids!
You guys have reviewed several truck/truggie/buggy iterations of this style chassis. Seems to be a hit or miss kind of thing? I wish I could remember the models. Perhaps the similarity to other models means there are upgrades?
Its an ok truck, but did like the muckraker...And great you just about at the 150 mark, any big plans for it...and now its not to far away from the BIG day, and yah we finally get to know Ima's real name....
Hi RC Saylors, I tried to order dis cool truck S920 from gearbest website, but it is not deleverible to INDIA, Will u please suggest me from which website i should order to get delevered to INDIA
The inner stuff on truck. Look like the thunder tiger truck. Were its all covered.. Its funny people driving by u guys. They must be out to see you guys.. They watch u guys on TH-cam.. Lol!!
Here i like the color, it does look like a nice little basher. As long as you stick mostly to speed bump size hills. Should try this one on the ramp. You mentioned mosquitos the other day. I watched the news on North Carolina flooding. They have been invaded by a NON Native mosquito that is three times normal sized mosquitoes, they are more aggressive, and news said they can get through clothing, due to bigger size. They said there are billions of them. They did say they don't do well in cold weather. So they are hoping they will be killed off,or seriously reduced. They didn't say if they were any where else. So keep spraying on repellent, wear loose clothing, hire a cave full of bats🐲🐲🐲 ( as close to a bat as I had.🐴. Good fun review,stay safe. P.S. if you look in a mirror you will see a SAYLOR ⚓.🐴🐴. A RC SAYLOR, Abby Saylor, Nate Saylor, Popeye 🐶 Saylor. Ima SAYLOR Saylors all over the place.😂😂
Love how this little truck looks too Stan :-) Woah, that is a HUGE mosquito! Hope you are right about the invasive species population going down as it gets cooler. Lol, your bat is a dragon head?! Haha!
We have been a bit curious about GPtoys RC’s. This was informative. Thanks for sharing. Appreciate the diversity of RC you guys talk about.

Oh, and the shocks need to be replaced with the oil filled ones. Big difference in handling.
I did not win. But you guys are still the best. Thanks for all the work ,I appreciate the sheer effort.
OMG. My jaw dropped. I love it. I love your channel. My hubby and I watch all the time.
The updated version is so much better lol you can equip 2 battery's at once! I like it. It's alot of fun
I’m trying to stop by at least once a week to watch y’all. I always enjoy you two. Since Daily vlogging I’ve been so busy I miss some of my favorite TH-camrs like you two.

Nice... It looks like the xinlehong 9125.. 😁
Congrats to the winners of the 12428!! Excellent review Nate & Abby!!
Thanks Alan! Woah man, you are so close to 500 subs! Sweet!!!
@@TheRcSaylors You're very welcome. I'll have to keep an eye out when I hit 500 subs :)
15:20 "You can get more for $80" Yes, this truck isn't terrible, but it's overpriced. I think I'd actually be happy with it for $50!
no man, that's not how the rc world works right now, 80$ is ridiculous for an awd 10th scale rc monster truck in terms of us standards
And it runs very well almost as well as the Xmaxx just not as fast or large of scale
After watching you guys battle that hill on many videos , my OCD is screaming for you to just pull out the weeds that get in the way . :) Love the content thanks for all the hard work you put into the channel.
I think I'm going to have to do that on our next trip to the hill. First time they've ever been this bad!!
I think the same. Clear the a little. Make an easy path and a difficult path. Good content. 😊
Dont waste ur 💰. Save it and buy a slash! Just being blunt and honest. Grea video guys.
Congrats to the winners. And congrats on 150k subs!!!!!! Love y'alls videos!
If the truck only performed as well as it looks. Thanks for the videos.
Agreed :-/ It does look really cool! Thanks for tuning in!
I love watching these videos man!
I found the S920, hosim 9125 and xinlehong 9125. Are these all the same? If not which do you recommend?
Congrats to the winners!
Looks like a fun little truck.
What exactly more can you get for $80? In other words, what can you get that is better for under $100?
Thanks Nate and Abby, Congrads to the winners, to everyone eles you win some you loose some 🖒
Thanks Anthony :-)
Maybe you have to shut it off when u switch it to high mode so it registers in the esc
Yes I finally got it!!! Thanks for the video guys!!!
Thanks for tuning in :-)
how has it been?

Great video as always :D
No problem It, thanks a lot for tuning in!
I agree with you Nate , it should do what they climb it will do, If you weed eat the hill , I would send the city the bill LoL, great video guys 👍👍

Sounds like fun 👍😁😎⚓
Is that truck called the Hudge Extreme ? Like Strong Bad hudge?
That's what it looks like the sticker on the side says: hudge.
That bouncy feeling you're referring to, I call "Squirrelly!" LOL
Yeah that's a good way of putting it :-) Thanks for tuning in Jason!

Thanks Andrew :-) Have a good day!
You can double stack batteries for more power.
Just gotta be careful you don't fry your electronics 👍😎⚓
It runs them in parallel giving you double run time, not double the power. 🤙🏼
That GPS can be switched to MPH if you plug it into a pc or laptop. I have one and it works well. I appreciate the comment that it may be 3mph off. Tells me my boats may be faster than I thought. Thanks for the videos.
Great video kids. Creeping up on 150,000 AWESOME! Great job!
Crazy how close we are now to 150,000 :-) Very exciting!
YEAHHHHH mega iper give away !!! Let's give away 150,000 RCs !!!
Thank you Love your videos and value your opinion .....Abby is awesome on the hill !!!!
Did you try putting both batteries in ? I'd like to know if it will do 30mph.
Congrats to the winners! ( I liked your Mini Golf vid - You should do RC Mini Golf .... )
Rc mini golf would be so much fun!!
Is it the same with XLH 9125???
ive not gotten into wheeled RC yet, but why would you want to reverse the steering?
Congrats to the winners!!!!
Yours didnt come with dual batteries with dual connector? Dont think the 2nd batt does much more though
Loving the video have an awesome day
Hi it look pretty similar to hosim 9125
Does it have oil filled shocks and plastic tires
Congratulations to the winners 🎊
:-) Thanks James!
I know that this is a year later comment 😂 but I'm kind of new at rc cars (like this one). Can you put 1/10 wheels on this or does it need to be 1/12? Thank you if you answer this

the slow guy that was super funny Nate
So when are you guys going to design your own truck. By the Saylors?
I been tryna find a decent good crawler for a good price, what would u recommend? And how do I qualify to enter for a give away?
I’m with Nate. I notice when people say VIN number for vehicles. I forget the model, but the under $50 metal parts truck beats this one hands down.
I have red cats earthquake 8e.. Its OK rig. I'm thinking buy one those mudraker or its monster truck force rc makes
Congrats to the winners,
It says up to 40 miles an hour. Does that mean downhill it would end up going faster and could hit the 40 miles an hour? Compared to being on flat
Cool video.
Thanks for watching!!

Congrats to the winners, may be a fun trail crawler? Say hi to popeye. Great video
Whare do you put all these cars boats trucks and planes at
We actually give quite a few away :-)
Check the speed tester in your car for accuracy.
We may do that in a couple days to see how accurate it is :-)
Congrats to the winners! Curious how this holds up to the hosim 9125?
Didn't win, but congrats to the winners!!! Also great truck :)
Thanks for the good sportsmanship :-) Have a great day!
Cool stuff 🏎🏎🏎🏎🏎

Just in case
Too light to keep the wheels on the ground perhaps?
Very possible. This is a really light weight truck.
Definitely a 1-10 scale
Yea, i was going to do an on boxing and review on my other channel and they sent me a dirty, broken truck. ( seller on Amazon ,not gear best)
