Brilliant review Mark (and Rob on the camera 👍), very clear and to the point... this little thing is good fun. As I mentioned on the previous video, some cracking under water shots! 👍🇬🇧
Many thanks for the great feedback, Phil! Yeah, "Rob on the camera" got some great shots with his gopro on a stick! Cheers mate and I hope you have a lovely Bank Holiday! 👍🇬🇧 :-)
Thanks for the comment Michael. I was really surprised at how well this little thing ran out in the park, think I'll be running it a lot more this weekend! All the best mate! :))
Cheers my mate Tony! Yeah, I'm not just saying it because it was free - it really is a fun and capable little crawler mate. Always enjoy reading your comments Bro, and every one is really appreciated! :))
Much appreciated, Martin! Yes, this is a competent little crawler, still going strong today - although I have replaced the body with a Range Rover shell from a toy grade RC! All the best.
@@MarkBryanRC I recently bought an scx24 (which goes great) and some thing from aliexpress (topfire 1/24) which is a pile of garbage. Wish I had gotten one of these instead!
Hi Martin - oh yes, I've heard a lot of good things about the scx24. Good info on the Topfire 1/24, I hope people see this advice and avoid it! Take care!
Great test review Mark - very concise. For the price it seems toy grade but the spec it feels more hobby grade with the waterproofing, throttle and steering trims, bead lock wheels, lights and an impressive 45 minute run time. A nifty little machine for the price. Thumbs up mate and congrats on negotiating your first run with a pistol grip...👍👍.
Cheers Cosmo! Thanks for the kind words, always appreciated mate. Yes, I think I would definitely put this one into the "micro hobby grade" category! You pointed out the best of the specifications there! As for the pistol grip, Rob will confirm that I had a few issues - most of them edited out of course! Thanks for watching bud, and have a lovely weekend! :))
Wow, I'm impressed!! Mine arrived this morning, so I'm fully charged and off out to film the "first run" video 😁 Great review sir, excellent presentation, subbed😁👍😎🇬🇧
Thanks Southpaw! You will certainly enjoy the tiny rig, small on size and big on fun! Appreciate the comment my friend, great to have you aboard! Enjoy the first run! :-)
Cheers Mikael - yes, it rather surprised me with it's performance and fun factor! I bet Jr is having fun stealing dads car! My big son wants to have a go with mine too! Thanks for the comment, always appreciated, especially when the views are low, as they are on this video - but I think it may pick up over time. Enjoy the weekend mate.
Fantastic little scale rig and super test. Waterproof is always great and all my tiny rigs aren't waterproof. I guess I need to get one and test it out :) Superb testing as usual my friend. Have a fantastic weekend 👌
Hi Charlie - yes I really enjoyed running my first micro crawler and using my first pistol-grip controller! This little beauty is more fun than I expected, especially in the water! I'd love to see a mini water run on your channel mate! Thanks my friend, I hope your weekend is a great one too! :))
Thanks for the nice comment, Jeremy, always a pleasure! I had more fun than I expected with this little beauty, it's strange how the small scale makes a tiny area a massive playground! Enjoy your weekend buddy! :))
The body supplied with this absolute bargain of a car reminds me a little of Daihatsu´s little 4Trak. I love the fact that the RTR comes with soft tyres - when it effortlessly clambered up that giant tree root it was, surely, the tyres rather than,say, the four-link suspension that made it possible.
Cheers my friend Del! Yes, I think it is a bargain at about £70! I see what you mean about the 4Trak resemblance! The tyres are as soft as you could get away with, any softer and the little car would squash them flat! Both Rob and I were astonished at how well it gripped and went over that root, we tried it several times and it never slipped once! I put it down to the tyres, too - great observation mate. Enjoy your Bank Holiday weekend! 👍🇬🇧 :))
Hi Nikki! Yeah, it's a fab little truck isn't it? I've had a lot of fun with mine, and it's so small you can take it anywhere. Hope you are well my friend! :)
Hey great review mate. What a cool little thing. I'm just wondering how fiddly it is to work on if you had to repair it. Maybe it will never go wrong! Great shots in the water. A good test of the waterproofness of the GoPro too. Hope you've got a good weekend lined up. I'm off to the pub in a bit. Ric has done a video of a crawler challenge we did yesterday. You can find it on his RC Ricco channel if you fancy it. Have a good evening mate 😀🍺🍺🍺
Thanks Pete. Yeah, I think it may be fiddly to work on with my sausage fingers! But there are only a few parts really, so a set of watchmakers screwdrivers should sort out most repair issues! Yeah, you can hear the water draining out of the GoPro microphone if you listen carefully! Already watched and commented on Rics vid mate - looks like a fun day out - you were in backflip city! Enjoy the beer or two that you have tonight, I'll toast you with my G&T later! :))
It seems to be VERY waterproof!!! 😳 I'd be concerned about the Batry though... Lipos explode when wet. I would double shrink wrap the Batry. Carmine 🚂🚙
I'm guessing it doesn't have a very potent Batry... But still be careful. The only thing that puts out a Lipo fire quickly is CO2 or burying it under deep soil. Water makes the 🔥 🔥 even more aggressive!!! 😳 I finally switched to Lipos though... I figured that they sell millions of them all over the World. They're not as sensitive as some make them out to be. Like any HazMat materials (including Ammonia, Chlorine, Bleach and GASOLINE), it warrants respect and common sense handling. Should you or Rob ever decide to switch, DO NOT order them from China! They can't travel by Air, and it could take Months to get!! 😖😳😳😤 They are though, far superior to NiMH in performance, runtimes and longevity. Just a thought...
@@CarminesRCTipsandTricks dipping a lipo in water is fine as long as you know the battery hasnt been scuffed up or anything, theres so many layers of other things that wraps it that unless you have cut or drilled through the battery it should not react to water, as that was a brand new battery i wouldnt be worried. But if you like to be extra safe using some plasti dip or other protective material you can do so.
Hey! mine steering when turning wheel to right, the car goes left. I tired to press the reverse button, but i didn't get it to work. Any thoughts? Instructions was in chinese only, i can't it so well... :D
Hi Jan. Hmmm... sounds like an issue with the controller - the only think I can think of is to remove all the batteries from the controller and the car to make sure everything resets and then try again - good luck! :)
I really need one of those Micros... Looks like fun to chase the Cat with. Maybe someone will buy me one... The Body looks like a Jeep YJ.... A little. Seems pretty stout and well built. Anything 2.4Ghz will be proportional. I just HOPE you can handle having no wibbly wobbly!!! 😋😆 LOL I'm very impressed with its performance. How can I get Banggood to send ME one?
Hehe - your cat would have to have 3 legs for this to keep up with it!!! Getting the knack of non wibbly wobbly mate! Keep banging out content and Banggood will find you my friend! :)
I think it might be - although I have not tried the SCX24, I see from other videos that it is a very good little micro crawler - it would be good to see them running together! :-)
Good overview Mark. The tyres are really impressive, as is the battery. The Pup only came with a 130mah NiMH. I bought two 300mah lipo's for it. Much better performance and run time. But it did come with 4 x AA's (cue fanfare) lol : )) ps:- your links to Bangood aren't working for me mate?
Thanks for the heads up on the link failure mate - I hope I have fixed it now. Yeah, the LiPo gives a good run time, my first LiPo! Enjoy your weekend mate!
@@MarkBryanRC You're welcome Mark 👍 I would also advise you to get a Lipo safe bag for storing and charging your battery. You can't be too careful with those things, no matter how small they may be. There isn't a bag as small as these Lipos (I searched for one for mine) but the smallest ones available, which are big in comparison to your battery, are definitely worth a few extra £'s for safety and peace of mind my friend 😊
Hi Vapletrichs Gne. Well, I think this one is excellent, especially for the cost. But you need to approach a run with a 1/24 very differently to how you would with a 1/10. Tiny obstacles and terrain features become massive challenges to the tiny little truck - just look at the tree root and shallow water features in the test run at the end of this video. The water would barely cover a wheel of a 1/10, but the 1/24 was submerged! Great fun in my opinion! :)
Hi Marcus - no, it comes with a 1S LiPo. I think if you put a 2S in it you would damage the ESC or motor. TBH, it has plenty enough power with the stock battery.
Hi Adi. I don't think the gearing is too high, it is very good for crawling and only goes at walking pace when full throttle. The controller is a bit tricky to get used to - after more practice I found I could drive smoother, without the car jumping forward.
Hi - not tried the Deadbolt, I don't think it's available in the UK at the moment, but I have heard that it is very good, and probably a little better than this! :)
