Very nice looking buggy. I was totally surprised it drove perfectly straight out of the box. The receiver with extra channels was also a nice surprise. Another great review Captain
Thanks for another excellent review! The colors of the body and wheels are really cool, and remind me of the Gulf sponsored racing cars. The specs on this one (brushless motor, 3S ESC, receiver with extra channels) are great.This type of 1:12 scale rc cars have become a kind of "standard" and so even more desirable, as one can now buy bodies and wheels to easily make a completely different looking car, if desired. But above all, they are really fun, as you very well show!
Thank you! Rlaario sent me the link to your video to assist me in finding the ESC power switch. Being my first RC vehicle of any type I couldn’t find that little switch.
Yes. Most lipo chargers will let you change battery type to LION. The only difference is that the per cell voltage is slightly different but charging on a lipo charger normally won't cause any issues. I'd just check the battery now and then to make certain it doesn't get hot.
With the drones & RC planes becoming such a problem to be able to fly down here in the States. I am thinking I probably will go to these RC cars & trucks. I got a boat you reviewed and it just rips !!! I just got a little GO 2 camera, so I need a buggy or truck to put in on !!
RC cars & trucks are what my friends and I go to on days we can’t fly due to weather. Everyone in the flying part of the RC Hobby certainly needs an RC car/truck for enjoyment.
Hello. I ordered one of these cars and I'm waiting on it. I am interested in a link for the 3s battery if you don't mind. Also I'm interested in the camera that you had used on the car.
This is a lovely car but the amoril/wlt tires are awful on my 114/144. Can't see how they'd how old to 95 kph lol. Still impressive and cool though. Thank you for the video
Yo captain, got any plans to review the sjrc f22s? curious about it since it's pretty new but most of the reviews available on it are on a different language
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 Thanks! Yea I read that the carbon wasn't good for off-road bashing. Seems like it wasn't made of the best grade of carbon material. Hope the aluminum chassis does...
This car, sold in the thousands when the pre-release was announced 3 weeks ago. I did an RC Car week a few months ago where I reviewed all the best RC Cars at the lowest prices. Just search my channel for RC Cars.
Next time get a professional on a track to do the testing, that way you get a true test & not a novice 🙄 You truly find out what your getting for your money.
Thanks!
Thank you kindly!
im buying this and this is the most thorough and best review for this car
im from the uk btw
Hope you enjoy it!
Very nice looking buggy. I was totally surprised it drove perfectly straight out of the box. The receiver with extra channels was also a nice surprise. Another great review Captain
Never stop flying Capt'ain !
Love how you always include POV footage in all your videos; so cool ! :-)
Excellent Video, and Excellent RC Buggy. Thank You Steve.

WOW !!!; thanks Captain for sharing and what a "Beast" !!!!
Glad I got mine and it came with the gold rims .. NEXT I buy the 3s

Glad it was of help
Enjoy the weekend nice colors
what type of connecter does the battery have? just want to know so I can buy more! 👍👍
Hello, How big is the battery compartment? Thanks for the info
Sorry, I no longer have this car so can’t check.
Hi Steve....Great video.....Wow...that car is awesome....👍
Another good review Steve. Nice RC buggy.
Wow... Excellent review 👍🇵🇭
Does it come with the front bumper?
I believe that is an add on
My amoril 114 (mini brushed version of this one) came with a front bumper and some other breakable spare parts which was very cool.
Really nice set up
Sounds really insane
Hello captain, how would I charge a li ion battery pack,(long range battery pack)? Can i use a regular lipo charger?
Yes. Most lipo chargers will let you change battery type to LION. The only difference is that the per cell voltage is slightly different but charging on a lipo charger normally won't cause any issues. I'd just check the battery now and then to make certain it doesn't get hot.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 Thank you so much for replying!
CAPTAIN!!!!👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Great review 👌
Maybe the really cold weather could impact on the performance a little.
Hey, nice video, you have inspired me to buy one
Does it come with the extra part you have installed at the front or is that an extra?
I have no idea as the video was not made this year so the store could include more or less. The website should mention what is included.
Great review. Thanks
That looks like a nice Christmas gift 🎁..... Santa...?
Good evening captain really cool car nice review
Thank you

I believe all that info is at the links under the video.
what 3s did you use?
Just your everyday 3S battery for a drone. There is a link to one below the video.
This is a lovely car but the amoril/wlt tires are awful on my 114/144. Can't see how they'd how old to 95 kph lol. Still impressive and cool though. Thank you for the video
3660 motor (got mine for 24) 4700kv you are now time traveling. 4s capable too.
hello i have a question its not related to this one,,how much are RC tanks? i hope someone can ans :)
They start at $200 US for large ones. I have reviewed several. Just search on TH-cam for CAPTAIN DRONE TANK
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 i have watched one before this one,,commented on this latest vid,,thank you :)
Hey great video! Newbie question here. Is the 3S at 1500mah the highest battery capacity for this format? My 2s hard shell goes up to 6000mah!
The MAH of a battery is also the physical size of the battery so use whatever size you wish as long as you can secure it to the body.
Can you review ae3 pro max drone pls thankyou
Cool video and speed runs! What connector are you using for that 3s?
The 3S has an XT60 connector & I just added an interface plug to match the car connector
Yo captain, got any plans to review the sjrc f22s? curious about it since it's pretty new but most of the reviews available on it are on a different language
All depends if it becomes available in my area
OMG...STEVE MARTIN HAVE A TH-cam CHANNEL..😱😊😊😊😊😁
Great review mate! I'm considering getting the aluminum chassis. Is it worth getting the carbon chassis? Thanks! 😁
Only if you wish to go fast and not crash... in other words, it is great for onroad, but not for offroad.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 Thanks! Yea I read that the carbon wasn't good for off-road bashing. Seems like it wasn't made of the best grade of carbon material. Hope the aluminum chassis does...
i'd like to see a top comparision of similar rc's with prices if i decide to give them to my nephews

Hi captain, you're awesome videos are sooo cool
Thank you
Great review but is that a real carbon fiber?
Yes
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 I don't think so coz I've seen one video where you could see too much flexing in the chassis.. so doubt that...
@@prathmeshdk it comes in different versions. Mine is the top model with carbon fiber.
Cool remote control car
Would you ever build a fpv rc car 🤔
I have a digital FPV unit that I can place on any RC car.
I like it
You look cold
make it FPV 😁
Goood day!dude~yo~you made epic , wanna a promo?.
this is great but id rather be in the air
It does jumps! Every person in the RC hobby will eventually own RC cars/trucks because on non-fly days they become essential for sanity.
Third
Costs 329 in australia no thanks
Next time get a professional on a track to do the testing, that way you get a true test & not a novice 🙄 You truly find out what your getting for your money.
Wow it's super fast like a filipina who takes my money 😆💯👍
