  • Enjoy my full and in-depth review of the "Strong as a Tank!" Optimus XL 4X4 Brushless Race Buggy. Get it here: goo.gl/j8u75a
    TEMPORARY FLASH SALE: goo.gl/gmNJts
    I have honestly never owned a stronger RC car or truck in my 35 years into the sport. This race buggy is going to take a whole lot more than these crazy jumps to break. I would love to race this thing at the track in the 1/8 Scale 4X4 Brushless buggy class!

    that was great you can tell the lower centre of gravity and top speed gearing was holding it back on those jumps, transitioning was slightly short compared to that last truck you reviewed but it held up great with the punishment it was taking. great review and it's a thumbs up from me

      +DAVEEYEINTHESKY Thanks..for a car it flew and crashed very well 😉✌

      @DustinDunnill  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      +johnboygtv yes, it is very similar. Ah the days of getting dirty at the track in the 90's. I miss it too. We need a dirt track built. Closed down here long ago 😕

    DHK cars can only run 36mm wide motors ( that really limits your upgrades ) unless you make a custom motor mount ...
    jlb j3speed , sabertooth or berserker ... is a much better option ... if you wanna go cheap get a rattler

    Hi my friend that is one cool car great video great and great review. I'm just wondering how it would be with monster truck fat wheels bigger wheels to give it more ground clearance Plus think it would look cool I think you're the best one to try it keep up the good videos. 😊 I hope my channel is as good as yours one day.

    Nice car Dustin and just a thought that you could take your rc cars to a local skate board course , you must have a ton of them in Hawaii .

    • @DustinDunnill
      @DustinDunnill  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Hi i have a question , i am looking of starting playing and getting into rc is this model good for a beginner?

    • @DustinDunnill
      @DustinDunnill  7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      +E Girl it can definitely handle a huge amount of abuse and crashing..so in that respect yes good for a beginner if you turn down the throttle power rate until you learn how to drive safely.

    In your opinion. Is it worth $313?

    • @DustinDunnill
      @DustinDunnill  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      I think so. For it already being tricked out and so durable 👍

  • @AlphaMachina
    @AlphaMachina 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Where did you buy this from? The one from Monkey Hobby says 80A ESC and no charger comes with it. I see that banggood supplies it with the correct 100A ESC and charger included. I'll get it from there.

    • @DustinDunnill
      @DustinDunnill  6 ปีที่แล้ว

    What's the best basher truck in your opinion?

    • @AlphaMachina
      @AlphaMachina 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      I'd say this would be the best bang for your buck scenario. You really can't get this much aluminum and power for this price anywhere else.
