@@muskokamike127 I’m planning on doing an endurance race next year. Although will be getting drivers from the community rather than the Celebrity’s… I find they can be high maintenance 😅

I ended up buying the granite boost, ended up selling it too, I found that the motor really easily overheats and I had to keep working on it so I sold it and invested in a used dr8, overall the granite is a nice frame to work with, the high suspension is nice for offroading, once again the motor let's it down and the rwd feature (in my opinion)
@@TomleyRC yeah, it's not a good starter car but us at the same time, for a newbie behind the transmitter and a easily overheatable motor aren't the best mix, also I have a quick question, I tried bending out the pins in a ec5 connector since they were bent in and wasn't connecting to the battery properly and of of them snapped, I ran it with a missing pin and all the other bent out how they should be and it ran fine but do you think it's safe?
Very happy this year i saw a lot of people recognizing the value for the money of the bandit, traxxas put also cheap good quality stuff on the market for a fair price!
The Lunchbox with just a battery swap to lipo isn't particularly good for anything, but it'll always make you laugh. 🤣 It's plenty fast enough to be entertaining. I love mine and I'm definitely going to put a bigger motor in it at some point.
Hi, the link to the Hbx ravage pro, doesn’t work, do you know if that’s because it’s out of stock? Or no longer produced? I have never used that site before. Thanks for the guide, looking for my sons first Rc 😊
My son has a udirc "infraction". Bloody good car and I'm very tempted to get the mini pickup. I'd like to know how much faster the brushless version is.
I’ve bashed both mjx and Hbx trucks. The Hbx is pretty damn tough but you can snap the chassis at the skatepark. It took about a 30 foot landing to catch the side of the chassis. The mjx is about the same although the Hbx has better diffs and suspension.
I need suspension parts for my WLtoys buggy but I'm having troubles finding the parts and I don't know why. Where's the best place to find WLtoy parts? The plastic parts that hold the wheel on broke
Have you tried the Flyhal FC610? Same chassis as the HBX2995 and Bezgar sells one as well. The Flyhal is the best bargain though. Pretty slow out of the box, but brushless ready and crazy durable.
Wheres the best place to get RC cars? I used to have a few when I was younger and got them all from model shops, now it's all online. Any standout websites to get RTR kit? Thanks.
As a grownup adult with money and no kids .... I NEED to buy this now. There are a couple of parks close to home I could take any of this and have a cool time
I reckon the commercial was cool, Mate. Love the movie, a great list of cheap trucks, my Wife, Daughter and I are just getting into RC. She bought me a HSP Wolverine Pro, it was fast but the construction is too weak for the power and it virtually rips its self apart... I only had it 3 weeks and I sent it back to the dealer in pieces and demanded my money back. So I'm saving for an Arrma Kraton 4S BLX but in the mean time we're looking for cheap reliable Trucks to Bash with. Movies like this are Gold, Cheers Mate. 😁👍🏻
The MJX 16x was actually a Hosim branded truck that they sell on Amazon. Are the Hosim trucks with the "Hyper Go" bodies the same thing as the MJX Hyper Gos?
Hi, I am going to purchase my first rc car never have one and I think this is going to be a hobby down the road, any advice I can get when purchasing ? Thank you in advance .
It's a little disingenuous to say that the Bandit has a new chassis. All they really did was change the color. Again. The only real thing that's changed on it since the original 1995 release is the addition of a sealed radio box and additional mounts to position the ESC on the left side of the chassis rather than the center. Thing is, Traxxas could have completely reworked the vehicle while still keeping the mounting hole patterns for the various parts, much like what HPI does with the Savage platform. Instead they just make the same car over and over and slap some new paint on it. It's also becoming a _very_ bad value when you can get into the RTR version of the Serpent SRX-2 for not that much more.
HBX Ravage is also my number one choice, the upgrades to get the HBX 16889A to 16889A Ravage (Pro) status costs more than to just buy the Ravage straight out of the box.
@@TomleyRC The link for the Ravage Pro says no longer available. Is the normal ravage with the brushless motor, the same thing, or no oil shocks with it?
Hey Tom, please help me decide between this crawlers: RGT rock Cruiser (Jimny or "Bronco"), Redcat Everest or FTX Ravine. Hope You help me choose My christmas gift. Nice line up un this video by they way...
@@andygrant5275 you certainly don't have to spend that much but there are tons of great upgrades you'll probably want. I would however recommend having the money on hand to replace the ESC, receiver and steering servo when you order it. The steering servo tends to be a bit weak and it's fairly common for the 2 in 1 ESC to not function properly. When I got mine it only drove in reverse.
Tell you what Mr Tomley , since you went full time you have really notched it up a gear video quality content the works , really enjoying your videos , just thought someone should tell you , well done and thankyou ,don't know how you do it 👍👍👍
Minie EV looks hilariously awesome. My daughters (9yrs and 12yrs) and I have more than a few cars of all types, so when something weird like this pops up (that we can drive inside and irritate my wife) we jump on it.
Cool list. I am going to second the MiniEV. It's a heap of fun. Granted I runit in front of my year and a half old nephew, who chases it and picks it up and has a good laugh. That puts a smile on my dial.
Love my 144010 and my Rlaarlo 1/14 scale buggy both killer rigs. Surprised you didn't have the Ridge Rock on your list as it has been a epic crawler with minor mods.
Tamiyas... definitely and glad you put FTX in there. A friend has the Paso and its a great truck. I have just bought his Geo off him.. He has 2 TRX4s. Took the Geo out today. What a piece of kit

whats the difference between a brush one and brushless one please im really new into this
Cleverly done.
Thanks for the list. They are all very tempting and I think it's a great list for this time of year for people looking for last minute presents.
Yes, although I was a little late this year so thought I’d do a 2023 wish list 👌

@@messn03 Unfortunately, you're wrong.
Great chart! I've bought two of them during 2021-2022. Thank you for excellent reviews!
Arrma vorteks is my truck I use and I love it
... Say, Jay, what are the "specs"/dimensions of this ARRMA Vorteks' Body... !!???

Hbx, a little like HPI? Sounds like a wannabe I can't believe HPI didn't catch it. A ravage? So stupid
Really wanna get the rlaarlo. But unfortunately have to be shipped from abroads
I am hoping to get it reviewed this week
Happy New Year 🥳
Great video as always, where can I buy a fully assembled Lunchbox can't find one online easily, thanks
I need suspension parts for my WLtoys buggy but I'm having troubles finding the parts and I don't know why. Where's the best place to find WLtoy parts? The plastic parts that hold the wheel on broke
I think MN78 also should be in this list. It is so cheap and be easily upgraded.
Have you tried the Flyhal FC610? Same chassis as the HBX2995 and Bezgar sells one as well. The Flyhal is the best bargain though. Pretty slow out of the box, but brushless ready and crazy durable.
There’s quite a few that are similar abs come under different names.. some decent ones out there for sure
Great selection there!
Thanks mate
Great you mentioned Tamiya..

Do the hyper gos have a slow mode?
Will the wltoys body fit on the rlaarlo?

Thanks mate. You too, have a good Xmas 👌
@@TomleyRC Thanks! Merry Christmas! 🖖😊
I payed 208 for a hpi e10 michele abbate model and its awesome what upgrades would you advise to do
