It’s now been over 3 years since this was released. I was in love with this thing right when I saw it but never got it. I watched the video over and over again. I finally started to count and I counted around 200 times. Still don’t have it but dreaming of the 120a
RC cars sure have improved since I bought my first hobby grade truck, a 2.5 Traxxas Revo. At the time I bought a Nitro machine, because I wanted to run it not charge batteries... Now, I could have something faster, that requires less tinkering.
For anyone having nuts un doing themselves, or screws from using the this or any other RC..... Buy some LOCTITE (Its an Thread locker). So LOCTITE screws and nuts onto metal with a dab of LOCTITE on the threads. Will not loosen out from vibration,m and is not a permanent glue or anything either, its regular practice in the hobby community when building RC's anywhere where metal meets metal. Apply a dab to the threads of all Screws, bolts, nuts that have to be fastened onto or into another metal part, and anywhere there's expected to be rotational vibrations. Now with Wheel Hub NUTS, they are usually Nyloned Nuts, so I suggest TEFLON Thread Tape. and thicken the threads on the axles. Or some pick up some better nylon threaded hub nuts. Awesome Review
This is why you don't buy a value brand RC truck because a lot of the times parts and services are hard to come by, it's worth spending the little extra money to have the customer support, and being able to go to a hobby shop and for them to have your parts already in stock. I'd save up a little money and get a Traxxas, Losi, HPI, Team Associated, or one of the other big name companies
+Accelerated Weather so true... Someone else was saying this to me.. main reason why I bought a kyosho mp9 tki3.. can always get parts.. and it holds it money value
I really don't see how rc cars stopped being so popular. As a child I had many Tyco cats and trucks. They weren't as fast nor as durable as the newer cars today, but they were a world of fun for me. This was an awesome video!
No Open space like before to play in... Many Parks Don't Permit... Many Construction Sites That Had Moutain High Dirty or Sand are fenced off... Open Spaces are fenced off... And Many Open Spaces Have Been Converted In Homes or High Density Condo Style Homes... Dirt Race Tracks In Open Fields Were No Longer Permitted...
+Hampus Rose Since I see you don't really mind spending ~$250 here and there, you wouldn't mind getting one per all of these people who can't afford it, right? Not everyone can get a job to priority or afford an RC car that expensive.
I've got two rc cars on is losi and the other is latrax. The losi is the 1/10 scale brushless sct xxx. The latrax is the latrax teton 1/18 scale. They are AWESOME!
1/10 all day!!!!!!!!! 1/16 are too small, remind me of rc cars wed play with as kids...note: my son has a 1/18 but its a losi mini rock crawler with 200$ in upgrades, 1/10 are for grown ups, anything smaller, get em for ur kids lol
I got this car 2 weeks ago. it's very durable, fast and allot of fun. The quality of material used in it is good and strong. it has a slipper clutch for adjustment and goes on wheelie every time I full throttle!it's enough fast enough on 2s and safe to play but on 3s it's unbeatable terrain monsters. Throw on any terrain and it will prove superiority.
The Cheetah is better, You can put 1/8 Monster truck tires on the Cheetah and have better control,You can't do that with the Bison without modding...My cousin has the Bison and has begged me to trade him for the past 4 months and I always have the same answer..NOT HAPPENING!
too much money..lol you don't want to know what I paid for my Revo 3.3 long body never mind some upgrades. Plus I have a full conversion brush less set up I swap with once on awhile. They can get expensive but it's the nature of the hobby..lol
Its actually cheap... There aren't too many reliable Chinese RC cars but they usually are around this price point. A comparable car with a brand name behind it will be around 500 bucks. I have cars between 700 and 1800 bucks.. That doesn't take into account mods so the 700 car is now up to 1K in price.. Do the math with the one costing 1800 bucks.
hey ben i bought this on gearbest but i did not recive it yet BUT YOU WERE THE PERSON THAT SHOWED THE CAR TO ME YOU ARE A GOOD PERSWADER SO THANK YOU GOOD JOB ON THESE VIDEOS
if you have any 1/8th scale rc vehicles id like to know if you have done videos on any? i want to go up to 1/8th scale but dont want to break the bank to much
Hello there's a guy on youtube that makes videoa with i guess a gas poweres or unless its a battery type of rc car and it goes fast up to 45 i think to like this one. But is there a rc car thats a fast one that you can see while u drive it remotely? Not a go pro cam like an actual cam for u to see so you can go for miles he goes through a city a neighborhood for a long range. Look up video called "driving a rc car at night with real traffic". If you can tell me which model that one is
Thanks for watching. No I don't believe it's a limited amount of time, but then again, if this video pushes a lot of sales it might sell-out or price jump up? Not sure.. don't wait forever ;)
This is really very faster than my thought .You have said that you will give this car to a lucky person and i really want to be that lucky person.I LOVE IT BUT I CAN'T AFFORD IT....
So comng from China how long did it take to come in? I've bought from Gearbest MULTIPLE times and I'm not pleased. Sometimes it takes almost two months for my package to arrive.
I got mine a day or so ago... Its crazy fast and fun.....the whole 5 minutes I got to play with it. In 5 minutes of playing, a lug nut came off, headlight wires pulled out of a led headlight and to top it all off the servo saver split in two rendering the steering inoperable. Its not as tough as the dude says it is in the video. Consider this when you are about to hit the pay button. I contacted gearbest and am waiting on their reply. Will update soon
Did you drop it off a cliff? I'm still thrashing mine around months later and it runs fantastic. (I mention the lug nut in my video, at that's a quick easy fix.) Maybe you received a defective unit..
Lol no cliffs, just racing around a parking lot and in the middle of turning it just went straight and wouldn't turn. The servo saver split in two at it thinnest point. A defective unit is possible because I didn't receive the toolkit as well as the ecm was flopping around straight out of the box. Had to retape it down. I hope gearbest does me right because this thing is a blast. I just tried superglue to fix the piece and it only lasted a minute or so lol
nice video. I'm into RC cars and name brand but for the speed and setup, that is a far better deal for people looking to get into the hobby for their first time. my 4x4 traxxas slash goes 60mph and that was 500$! and ive broken an a arm the first week haha
you should review the slash. because I put a speed omator app on my phone and it had a speed at 60 mph I am not joking. but with the slash it has a option of one or two with one it goes I think about 35 mph. with two it goes 60. it has a 2.4 gigahertz remote. but ya man that would be cool if you review it it is super awesome. it has a brush less moter so it dousent over heat so quick. I love it AND I LOVE YOUR VIDS !!!
i have bought a revo3.3 (5309) , jato 3.3 ,rustler,emaxx,slash anddddd the list goes on experimenting with electric and nitro'd rc models and im about 4 years into it , i bought this one with some birthday money and iv gotta say its probably the most out of box fun i had considering the big ass price difference.
QUESTION: I have never owned one of these. I am looking for a off road type of car to take and have fun with. What would you suggest for a first timer, something fun and easy, under $350.00 - Thanks
This would probably be a great option for a newbie, just be careful as these speeds can kill someone. Also, if something breaks, not sure how easy it is to fix - I personally drive a bit extra careful so I don't encounter that issue. Hope that helps.
I assume this is upgradeable as well? Siri, getting back into rc I used to run a Savage 25 loved it but no longer in need of nitro so looking for the best option for a 4x4 electric truck. With room to upgrade if I want any info is helpful
Got around about the same size car 80 mph over the years probably got over three grand dumped into it buddy had a racetrack we had about 30 plus people there on the weekends racing all their dune buggies those are some fun times
I did a review on this a while ago, its an epic car for the money!
Nice!
Your the best Kev!

I totally agree with you there.
What he ment by affordable was affordable for him
same :o
ikr not everyone has 300 bucks to throw out towards an rc car.
its 400
Its about what he ment not the details

Well..it's been 4 years...and the price has actually almost doubled on these
Facts
It’s 2022 and I purchased mine from amazon for $390 without including tax
I was looking a little more in the 30$ range 😅😂😂
I hate to tell you the hard truth but 30$ won't get you a good rc car
It’s now been over 3 years since this was released. I was in love with this thing right when I saw it but never got it. I watched the video over and over again. I finally started to count and I counted around 200 times. Still don’t have it but dreaming of the 120a
It’s listed today at over $425
That’s way over priced
we need more rc car review people like you
Thanks! :)

do more rc videos i love your videos
Thanks Greg

I have one question, when parts break where will you find replacements
This is why you don't buy a value brand RC truck because a lot of the times parts and services are hard to come by, it's worth spending the little extra money to have the customer support, and being able to go to a hobby shop and for them to have your parts already in stock.

"Only" $265
PhantomHD fun yeah you're right if you're gonna spend that you might as well buy a 2000 dollar one
Lev Leon dude, has just saying its way overpriced. It probably costed the company a total of $50 to make it and it costs over $250
its over 400
Rich Savage the car is way overpriced and so are your fuckin sunglasses
"Only"....
i want one so badly right now all of the other videos were good but this one was the best
Wish I had the money for in for my little brother. So broke. awesome price though
Zlb cheetah is the beast of rc cars
Hey bro that car is fast
U commented on my post
See how this one looks coooooolllllll
ONLY 264$! BECAUSE MONEY GROWS ON TREES.
BECAUSE $264 IS CHEAP FOR RC CARS. GET A JOB.
Man, It's actually expensive. you can build yours for far less than that
Nizar Science exactly
+Hampus Rose Since I see you don't really mind spending ~$250 here and there, you wouldn't mind getting one per all of these people who can't afford it, right? Not everyone can get a job to priority or afford an RC car that expensive.
***** Wrong, everyone pretty much can. They just think everything comes eventually though you have to work hard to get it.
Is there a datasheet for this RC with info about circuit board, motor spec, motor speed controller and PWM etc?
its not 264.90$ any more its 423.71$
I'm seeing it at $318 currently - Prices are always fluctuating, just keep an eye on it
JdmVideos for me its $449.99
JdmVideos thank
Blazicon Sins it’s 789.37 now
I've got two rc cars on is losi and the other is latrax. The losi is the 1/10 scale brushless sct xxx. The latrax is the latrax teton 1/18 scale. They are AWESOME!
"super cheap" 264.00 USD = 2,252.20 SEK
Atleast not here
ja
Awesome
BOOM .. ONE OF THE BEST TECH INFORMER YOU ARE. SUPER COOL GADGETS
Do you recomend a 1 /10 or 1 /16 car for my first RC
+Marcus Fenix - Depends on budget, speed, etc..
Marcus Fenix I would recommended 1:10 but if you like small get 1:16.
1/10 all day!!!!!!!!! 1/16 are too small, remind me of rc cars wed play with as kids...note: my son has a 1/18 but its a losi mini rock crawler with 200$ in upgrades, 1/10 are for grown ups, anything smaller, get em for ur kids lol
thank you for the response I guess ill go 1/10

Full Boosting 101 dude traxxas rc models are like 200-700$ I got a traxxas and there very tough

XMA channel how much is the cheapest traxxis
Full Boosting 101 that's pretty cheap for a 4 by 4
Full Boosting 101 449.99 for me
I think that car is cooler than any other car I've seen so I added a comment

carlos DJ squirrel Nice lies bro
Can you charge the battery with a Maxam Pro 5000 Charger Balance/discharger?
your opinion which one is faster jlb cheetah or the Bison
I'm thinking about making a race video! ;) Seeing which one is faster.. interested??
AuthenTech - Ben Schmanke o yeah very interested but wich cheetah would u use the original or the 21101 jlb
The Cheetah is better, You can put 1/8 Monster truck tires on the Cheetah and have better control,You can't do that with the Bison without modding...My cousin has the Bison and has begged me to trade him for the past 4 months and I always have the same answer..NOT HAPPENING!
Crazy fast! Im waiting for my first ever brushless upgrade for one of my cars atm, should be a ton of fun! Brushless is so effing fast!
Best budget RC car
Imagine having a 3 speed transmission on something like this...
the slash is King of the Ring!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
to much $$
too much money..lol you don't want to know what I paid for my Revo 3.3 long body never mind some upgrades. Plus I have a full conversion brush less set up I swap with once on awhile. They can get expensive but it's the nature of the hobby..lol
In the Rc world, $265 is really cheap, especially for a 1 10th scale.
for a 1/10th scale, brushless 4x4, i think your getting a really good deal
Its actually cheap... There aren't too many reliable Chinese RC cars but they usually are around this price point. A comparable car with a brand name behind it will be around 500 bucks. I have cars between 700 and 1800 bucks.. That doesn't take into account mods so the 700 car is now up to 1K in price.. Do the math with the one costing 1800 bucks.
even more an erevo 760 but that car is very cheap for the quality and speed
god damn it looks powerful and fast
ill rather have a traxxes
more reliable and better
***** but you atleast know where to go for parts when they break
I would rather have an HPI
same and u can find a used one that goes faster then that for pretty cheap
+Jacob Butler exactly, hpi is quality and affordable
Which is more fun, this JLB Cheetah or Dhk Maximus or Arrma Granite 3s 4x4 blx?
FIRST!
your so lame
ur the best give me urgently car man
xD
what a kid dude
voice issues in this video or is it just me?
could you do a review on the traxxas bandit?
I'm looking into it, thanks
Brinquedinho bacana esse aí.
Ben what's a fun RC car that you would recommend for a beginner? Thanks for your awesome vids
Hi man your car is very nice
That is one great looking remote control car! I hope I can get one soon :-)
very nice rc car.nice price to car ratio. a lot of car for under 300.
How does it hold up in winter , snow conditions and drying it ? I feel at winter would be hella fun with all the trampolines you could build
Amazing video Mr.Ben
The Cheetah is bad ass! Great review
hey ben i bought this on gearbest but i did not recive it yet BUT YOU WERE THE PERSON THAT SHOWED THE CAR TO ME YOU ARE A GOOD PERSWADER SO THANK YOU GOOD JOB ON THESE VIDEOS

Looks cool Im getting my son one for his bday lol but low key its for me 😜 😂
if you have any 1/8th scale rc vehicles id like to know if you have done videos on any? i want to go up to 1/8th scale but dont want to break the bank to much
Can you add different batteries like can u buy better ones like does the tamiya battery pack work on it? Btw I subscribed

Looks like a lot of fun. Is it only available for a limited amount of time?
Thanks for watching. No I don't believe it's a limited amount of time, but then again, if this video pushes a lot of sales it might sell-out or price jump up? Not sure.. don't wait forever ;)
This is really very faster than my thought .You have said that you will give this car to a lucky person and i really want to be that lucky person.I LOVE IT BUT I CAN'T AFFORD IT....
If its price is 90$ than i can think about it..
Reminds me of the "REBOUND"FROM Tyco RC I had growing up in the 90
Holy Keywords Batman! LOL! Nice job man! Thumbs up!
Thanks Ricky... I think
lol! Seriously great job man!
Should I buy this? Instead of the Traxxas Slash 1/16 4X4?
she is a BEAST!
So comng from China how long did it take to come in?
I've bought from Gearbest MULTIPLE times and I'm not pleased. Sometimes it takes almost two months for my package to arrive.
If only I had such a fast RC car in the end 80's (as a kid)
awesome car
Hey, you did not mention the volts of the battery. Is it 11.1v or 14.8?
I have a question is another truck that you may want to try out sst1928v2
Nice car
I got mine a day or so ago... Its crazy fast and fun.....the whole 5 minutes I got to play with it. In 5 minutes of playing, a lug nut came off, headlight wires pulled out of a led headlight and to top it all off the servo saver split in two rendering the steering inoperable. Its not as tough as the dude says it is in the video. Consider this when you are about to hit the pay button. I contacted gearbest and am waiting on their reply. Will update soon
Did you drop it off a cliff? I'm still thrashing mine around months later and it runs fantastic. (I mention the lug nut in my video, at that's a quick easy fix.) Maybe you received a defective unit..
Lol no cliffs, just racing around a parking lot and in the middle of turning it just went straight and wouldn't turn. The servo saver split in two at it thinnest point. A defective unit is possible because I didn't receive the toolkit as well as the ecm was flopping around straight out of the box. Had to retape it down. I hope gearbest does me right because this thing is a blast. I just tried superglue to fix the piece and it only lasted a minute or so lol
Bummer man, hopefully Gearbest takes care of it for you
is it fine if the tire car gets wet or when it is submerged it will get messed up
best car evear seen
I love this car
very nice thank you for the teknaloge
nice video. I'm into RC cars and name brand but for the speed and setup, that is a far better deal for people looking to get into the hobby for their first time. my 4x4 traxxas slash goes 60mph and that was 500$! and ive broken an a arm the first week haha
You're exactly right, this is a great first-timer RC
Hey this is pretty cool to see the cheeta
What would you recommend now, 6 yrs later...
RC's will make a comeback because of FPV, especially with the oculus and vive headsets, I bet headtracking cameras become a standard in all FPV soon.
I think you're right man, RC and FPV is coming in hot
Great job bro love this rc
you are the best you tell me the best RC cars thx :)
whats all that stuff on the grass when u were driving it on the grass?
awsome vid hope you get tonnes of subscribers
you should review the slash. because I put a speed omator app on my phone and it had a speed at 60 mph I am not joking. but with the slash it has a option of one or two with one it goes I think about 35 mph. with two it goes 60. it has a 2.4 gigahertz remote. but ya man that would be cool if you review it it is super awesome. it has a brush less moter so it dousent over heat so quick. I love it AND I LOVE YOUR VIDS !!!
i have bought a revo3.3 (5309) , jato 3.3 ,rustler,emaxx,slash anddddd the list goes on experimenting with electric and nitro'd rc models and im about 4 years into it , i bought this one with some birthday money and iv gotta say its probably the most out of box fun i had considering the big ass price difference.
plzz review about how to use or control the remote control...
QUESTION: I have never owned one of these. I am looking for a off road type of car to take and have fun with. What would you suggest for a first timer, something fun and easy, under $350.00 - Thanks

This was cool
I love the rc cars
I liked your videos
crazy fun. A battery rivals te power of gas power then
I assume this is upgradeable as well? Siri, getting back into rc I used to run a Savage 25 loved it but no longer in need of nitro so looking for the best option for a 4x4 electric truck. With room to upgrade if I want any info is helpful
Fantastic video mate! I love these RC Cars, i've just reviewed the WLTOYS A959 and that was fast, but not as quick as this JLB LOL!
Got around about the same size car 80 mph over the years probably got over three grand dumped into it buddy had a racetrack we had about 30 plus people there on the weekends racing all their dune buggies those are some fun times
This isn’t an entry level car for most people but there are sub $100 cars that aren’t as fast as this but they are durable and fun.
