Exchange totally bro. Those $35 little mustangs that Discipline just ran with you in the video… those are bad ass! I am ordering the black and the red👍🏼
Sick ramp slide at 2:00. 😆 I love a good bargain find, but I gotta go with the little one Discipline just posted today. That one looks so much better, and still in the same price range!
I was just binge watching your other vids 😂😂😂 I'm surprised that took it so well. My experience with going from 3.7 volts to 7.4v has always been immediate death of the ESC.
All I could think of was that old saying "all show and no go." It has a nice looking body and the lack of steering lets down. As you said for a little more money you do a lot better. I enjoyed the video.
Fellow "Derby City-an" here, just over in Highveiw as a matter of fact! Where is the BMX track that youhad the MJX HyperGo V2 running on? I assume its in our area somewhere.
That’s dying for some laminate flooring lol . that’s perfect for them rainy days indoors & I reckon some little kid would love that in there Xmas stocking ,awesome. Always enjoy your your content no matter what it is 💯👌🤙🇬🇧
Yes would likely work very well on a smooth vinyl or laminate floor. If the concrete was polished. But yes it’s a good $30 gift exchange or kids gift absolutely!
The power craze drifter truck, looks just like a lil arrma it actually drifts! I bought it from costco for $30 or $40 i cant remember and it has proportional steering 💪 & 3 different speed modes lights also
I do, and I’m itching to get it back out for something. Definitely soon! Can’t necessarily do a one year review as it has lots of upgrades so it has an advantage, but it’s needed a diff bearing for over a year now 😂
It's crazy to think that a happy meal was under $5 when I was a kid, but video games are still $60 ..now they're saying $70-80 is the norm 🤯 Fair take on the little car, though!
As the sun rises in the East and sets in the West, I was just thinking about doing the exact same thing to a really cheap 3.7v car I use to teach a STEM class.
Nice to see the cheaper stuff every now and then. Will you be testing the new Grom 3s BLX range? I'd like to see if they can handle a good ol' Derby RC bashing.
I have a similar little drift car but it doesn’t have lights or anything. Not going to lie for a rainy day it’s not a bad little toy to mess around with for a few minutes
Between all these RC transmitters and kids toys that randomly go off singing in the middle of the night bringing my childhood nightmares to life, it’s the only way 😂
Have you ever installed or retrofitted a lithium battery into MJX Hyper Go which uses only 2 AA batteries..my guest is a 7.4 volt would double its range or burn up its board...with new AAs its over 100 meters,but mine does drop off range after a few days of running...Years ago i converted my flysky 3ch 10 model memory radio from using 8 AAs to using 3s lipos...i still use that radio after 12 years and its range is over 300 meters...😊
@@DerbyCityRC voltage is the force and amps are the flow of electrons. High voltage is too much force and High amps will equal high heat. That’s what low amps does. Sneaks up on you which is why it’s important to run right voltage.
@haywirerc true. If I remember from the auto tech classes I took 15 years ago, a rise in voltage with the same resistance on the circuit will equal higher amps. Amps are what truly do the work and higher voltage pushes it through harder. Lol Or something 😂
With few more dollars you can buy any of the LDRC 1/18 drift rc cars models which they have a very nice low end control. Think that you can park them between 2 cars like the real cars tested by me. I am not fun of on-off electronics in rc cars. 30 dollars is very good price but put proportional controls and don't sell the 80s rc toy technology. If we wanted toy rc cars we wouldn't be here. I don't judge the video i judge that still there are on-off technology rc cars.
I’ve got an LDRC coming soon along with some others. “Modding” toys is definitely fun though and made it worth it. My excitement certainly dwindled as I expected it to be better being from jjrc. As people are looking for cheap indoor cars for winter, it’s good people can see if they do or don’t want this, and I agree! Tech is far enough along that adding proportional controls should be all that’s out there. The on/off came as a shock to me and that’s when the excitement started lowering.
Just don't expect any customer support from LDRC, or parts to be sent in a reasonable time when you purchase them as they won't replace then under warranty, came faulty out of the box and they wouldn't refund or replace the parts. My experience with them was horrendous and I have an NZ$80 paperweight unless I throw more money into it. At least I have a half decent die cast Skyline R34 model, but I could have got one better for much less. I agree on the on/off steering and throttle, it must be proportional or no thanks.
@WorkInLight interesting. Hasn’t heard they were bad. That blows 😢 Ya I do wish I’d known it was non proportional. Figured I had to do something to make it a fun video lol
@@DerbyCityRC I got a blue and a black Skyline, they are not the same, the black one is far inferior to the other and cost more, it was faulty out the box, and Banggood eventually refunded me NZ$80, so I must apologise, it's a NZ$37 paperweight. I gave up asking for a fair deal as it took 6 weeks to get to the point of the refund. I asked to return it before I even opened the box. LDRC said the board was faulty, I bought another one and find the servo is actually the issue so now need a servo, so another NZ$40 or so extra to get a working car, hopefully. Some of their cars seem fine, the black skyline is a no go, don't bother with them. Have fun my man, I know you always do. Again, thank you for your fast response, bloody impressive mate.

That was fun. I figured the motor would smoke.

@@DerbyCityRChey, even your early vids were edited well, and humorous. You always deliver, for which we thank ye.
I got serious about my videos pretty early on, so thanks 😊 Definitely cool to go back on occasion and see how they’ve changed.
Just awesome dude, gonna have to get one of these for winter 😂

Hello Evin hope all is well with you and your beatiful family, nice video man, you allways put your rc through its paces 😂.
See you soon.

Thanks Ricardo! 😊
It lasted longer than I expected 😀
Me too 😂😂
very cool!
Thanks!
Do you still have the Kraton 6s ? If so, maybe do a long-term review on it.
I do, and I’m itching to get it back out for something. Definitely soon! Can’t necessarily do a one year review as it has lots of upgrades so it has an advantage, but it’s needed a diff bearing for over a year now 😂

I am such a sucker for micros man! And I don't know why. It's my Achilles heel.😂
Happy you did it. Happier it wasn't me. 😂 you still made the best of a bad(ish) thing. Everything should be made to take double voltage.
😂😂 Yes everything I agree!! ⚡️

Best comment thread I’ve seen in awhile😂 The Thing That Should Not Be $30 definitely didn’t like that Battery.

@cody41895 this car is For Whom The Bell Tolls…it just wasn’t the One
It would work good on a tile or hardwood floor. I got something like that you had water and it smokes.I chase my cat with it 😂
It is a cool little thing I suppose haha
Haha! Not terrible for the money but there’s better for just a bit more lol
Double volting is fun until the steering burns out😂 speaking from experience
Ha! I can’t believe it worked at all loo
@ I knew something would freeze up. Too bad it was the drive motor and not the steering
@haywirerc I know lol and no heat!
