Just got one of these a month ago, first RC I have had since I was a little kid. Super fun. Just ordered a set of OVONIC 3s Lipo Battery 35C (Burst 70C) 2200mAh 11.1V Lipo . I hope they are compatible and don’t mess up the electrics.
That farmer had no right to tell you to leave that was a public parking lot you had every right to stay I would have stayed let him call the cops and they couldn't do anything 😂 and I would continue to play staring at the farmer 😜
@@413RChey did you have to do anything else to this truck to run 3s? Also this video is a couple of years old, did you ever have any issues from running 3s?
I picked up the brushed one for 20 bucks on marketplace , I just finished converting it to brushless and did the shocks, and waiting for my bigger 1/12 th scale tires from Amazon....I like it a lot.. fun little basher.. 👍
Put on the Duratrax Bandito ST 2.2 tires Item# DTXC 5105, did my speed run on a 650 mah 3s 100c got 40mph, put in a 850 mah 3s 100c got 41mph on my gps.
Does anyone know where to get spare pinions on the Internet for for these models? I CHECKED ALL OVER THE INTERNET AND NOBODY HAS THE PINION THAT FITS WITH THE SPUR GEAR! someone please help me find the spare! Either fir the 2mm shaft or 3mm shaft!
Not positive for this newer updated version, but I used a Traxxas pinion on my older hailstorm I did a brushless swap on. I think it was a .5 mod, cannot remember what model it was for originally but likely off a latrax. I went into my local hobby and they helped me identify the mod on the spur to try and match. Also, Redcat sells the volcano 16 which is a rebranded 1/16 HBX and carries all the spare parts on their website including upgrade parts (and you get them fast because they are located in the US, been my little trick of keeping my HBX 1/16 going without waiting for parts to come from China, not that it's broken much of anything). Maybe you could look or ask them what the mod is on that model for cross reference/confirmation of what I am saying. I am guessing it's the same style. Good luck!
It's people like that farmer that make the world a terrible place and they don't even realize it, they think they're on the moral high ground constantly. I know the type.
0:42 Jeeps look great, I’m sure they’re fun, but they’re always feeling Uhh under the weather. 🤒🤕

Just watch your motor and ESC temps
WOW EPIC VIDEO AND RC TRUCK MAN!!!
Thanks!!’

He woke up on the wrong side of the bed lol
Farmer got mad his tractor can’t go fast. Lol
Great vid. HBX is solid.. Also, total New England problem getting chased out of an empty parking lot by a grouchy farmer. 😆
LOL! i never thought of it that way... i guess it comes with the territory
I bought 3 of those for my 3 sons. Hopefully this makes them more inclined to go outside this winter. C’mon Christmas morning!👊🏽🙌🏽💯
you're going to have an absolute BLAST running 3 of these together. They are super fun and fast. Hopefully you bought some 3S lipos for them too lol

NICE! Happy Tinkering
Nice vid bro, really good speed with a 3s for sure. Farmer has no life, just forget it dude! Keep it up! ✌️😸
Thanks man! figured i'd leave in the grouchy farmer lol
@@413RC better that way, for him! 😂

Wish you left the farmer convo in lol
I wish I recorded it lol. He was a d*ck
Wow ,, would you have to change the connectors to get that 3s to fit ??
I have the same car lol
You shouldn’t as long as you get a battery with the right connector
I'm curious what camera did you use to mount into your RC? I'm shopping for one myself. Thanks!
Check it out!

Good contents bro forget about that mean ole farmer
LOL thanks! he was definitely a meanie
Good rc car :-)
I agree!
@@413RC Yeah . ;-)
Any pinion upgrades?
If you had to pick one, The HBX 16889 Pro or the 18859A?
Have you had any problems since running a 3s on it?
@@alanblack5257 this car is long gone unfortunately. But I never had issues. Just be careful of temps
Did you have any problems running 3s on the brushless model? I just got one and want to put a 3s but I’m scared to burn motor or esc.
Haven’t had any issues just watch the motor and ESC temps
@@413RC Ran 3s yesterday and holy shite thing was a rocket! Even on half speed. Motor honestly didn’t feel any warmer than 2s which is strange.
Nice jump! You think the drivetrain will handle 3S long term?
Thanks! I would say it depends on how hard you bash and how good your throttle control is. Pretty sure the ESC has 3S rated written on it
Did you solder that t connecter on to the batter 3s battery?
I did
Have any issues with your axel pins? The 18689 and 90 does and wondering if you know the size so i can track down some when my truck arrives. Thanks.
Nice runs and jumps little truck is a beast. Did u have to add Grease to the diffs,before you ran it
I did not. These smaller ones seem to be okay. You could always check
How long have you run this truck on 3s? Curious how long it will last. I know the manual says 2s only
I run it on 3S every time I bash! Just watch temps
I don’t even have the 2s batteries anymore, the 3s are a perfect match just let it cool down in between battery swaps

The farmer didn't like you because you're wearing sandals. LoL. The prejudice runs wild.
How many c on the lipo you use? And how many volt?
3S Lipo
Sounds to me like Farmer brown hasn’t been doing too well with his old lady back at home. He’s gotta take out his frustrations on somebody 👨🏼🌾
Maybe he just needs to BASH
what would you buy for a 3s so you don't ruin the motor? i'm looking at buying this one.
Something like this but you'll need to replace the battery connectors amzn.to/31OlQka
What a shame. Isn’t that the place you’ve been filming all along? Why did he wait so long to throw a fit after all this time?
I dont even know. maybe he was having a bad day on the tractor lol

Ooof I forgot about him. I was heated! It’s best to just carry on and not make a scene
@@413RC Agreed, it's just sad some people just don't get it. Simple acts of kindness, cooperation and a giving spirit go a long way.
Boomers are SO annoying...
Anyways. I have one of these. I frikin LOVE it.
LOL! Mean farmer!
Nice vid Where can you find the battery connectors..thanks
Thanks for watching! these are deans connectors you will need to solder on amzn.to/3HXi0XJ
