Got the FC610 and put a 3660 motor and a hobywing 120A ESC in it. DumboRC receiver as well. I fricking love it. I wish to open it up to put a thicker oil in center diff and thats about it. What a steal of an RC car.
I love the sound of these trucks Brian. 43 mph is still ripping right along for these trucks. I totally agree with you regarding the controller.400’ is more than enough for bashing, but for spd runs another Tx/Rx set up would be better! Really loving your very thorough videos dude. Got a lot of catching up to do as ewe just got our power back yesterday! Merry Christmas my friend! 🙏🌟🎄🎉🎁🙌
Hi Brian, great videos. Have you tried HYPER GO H14BM 1/14 Brushless RC ? For me handling and keeping wheels on ground is more important than top speed you can’t control.
Thank you! I have not. I have been meaning to reach out to them and see if they will send me one..... as I would really like to try one! This HBX is fairly stable but not like some 1/10th scale trucks I have driven (like my vintage Losi's.... my Arrma Big Rock is terrible at high speed however). Derby City RC is an awesome channel and I believe he has tested both! Evan could probably tell you what he thinks is the pros and cons of both!
@@BriansRCStuff I will do that I’ll reach out to Derby RC as I did see his channel too. I have a 1/8 llossi buggy that is incredible but needs a lot of space and I have a lossi 1/10 rally X that is unbelievable on 3S. It speeds of 50 miles an hour and it’s just epic but yeah you need a lot of space for that one too.
@@mikerogers1949 Very nice! I have never had an 1/8 scale car.... maybe one day! Yeah, 50 mph is moving pretty good! I find much over 50 becomes more of a speed run thing than practical.... but I love going fast!
Honestly I have never timed runtimes on any on the LIPOs. My Urgenex LIPOs held about 1,850 mAh to 1,875 mAh and the Liperior held the full 2,200+ mAh. The Liperior would also have less voltage sag so it will not hit the LVC as soon as the Urgenex. That being said, I would only expect the runtime to be a few minutes longer (on grass the difference would likely be more). If you are happy with the speed your a getting and it is hard to be upset by the runtimes you are getting..... IDK if I would even bother with the bigger/higher performance LIPOs. I know Zeee makes a 3,000 mAh LIPO that fits in the truck so if you wanted much longer run time (and likely a bit more top speed), that is something else your could consider.
Thank you! Tell me about it! 😂 Here is the time my Bandit hit my foot when it was doing about 60 mph.... that one HURT! th-cam.com/users/shortsxDx3DwX_suE?si=KD1Hkg8bZQgIiX98

That thing must be a beast! How many kv is the motor?
@@BriansRCStuff 4300KV. Its amazing dude. So fun.
@@bismuth7730 Sounds awesome man!
Cool rc and awesome speed runs
What a great and fast basher
It exceeded my expectations for sure. For the price, it is outstanding.

I am glad you are back on the grid! Was thinking about you buddy!
Thank you and Merry Christmas!

Is these coming to uk
Sadly I don’t believe so. When I talked to my HBX contact she said at that time she had no plans. I can check to see if anything has changed.
@@BriansRCStuff be awesome if comes to uk :)
@@owen8538 more than one person has told me that from the UK. I was hoping they would make it available on Ali express.
@@BriansRCStuff if on aliexpress I will be happy 2 am waiting so I buy 1
Brian, what runtime did you get with this battery? I’m getting around 15-20 min with Urgenex 3s
Honestly I have never timed runtimes on any on the LIPOs. My Urgenex LIPOs held about 1,850 mAh to 1,875 mAh and the Liperior held the full 2,200+ mAh. The Liperior would also have less voltage sag so it will not hit the LVC as soon as the Urgenex.

@@BriansRCStuff appreciate the feedback as always!
nice
Kinda sounded like a jet going by full speed heck yeah 💯🛻💨
It is ripping pretty good. Can't wait to hear it with the 5400kv motor!
Your not supposed to hit yourself in the foot lol 😂great vid
Thank you!
Tell me about it! 😂 Here is the time my Bandit hit my foot when it was doing about 60 mph.... that one HURT! th-cam.com/users/shortsxDx3DwX_suE?si=KD1Hkg8bZQgIiX98
Dat shit hurts at forty mile an hour don't it!?
It did not feel nice but luckily it’s fairly light. My tracks is bandit. Hitting my foot at 60 hurt much worse!
Sucks about the foot
I was worried it would hurt this morning but I am good to go! Thankfully, because when the bandit hit me my foot hurt for weeks!
