Insane 3S Brushless Hyper Go 16207 Buggy Review & Speed Test - The Best Budget RC Basher Yet?

- Hi and welcome to this detailed review and Speed Test of the latest Hyper Go 4x4 RC, the 3S Brushless 16207 Buggy. Could this insane little 1/16 budget basher be the best yet? Let's find out!
This very affordable RTR (Ready To Run) from MJX R/C comes with a fantastic specification and excellent build quality. Although it comes fully assembled and has a price tag that's extremely competitive, it is a true hobby grade RC, fully rebuildable and fitted with separate ESC and radio receiver and a 3-wire servo. This means that this buggy is fully upgradable and compatible with readily available hobby grade electronics and radio systems.
In this video we take a look at the specifications, do a speed test on 2S LiPo and then a speed test on the included 3S LiPo. We also filmed some shots of the buggy running off-road so you can see how it handles the rough stuff!
We also take a look at the new HG-T22 2.4Gh Smart Radio System, a separate upgrade pack that includes a GPS module for full GPS data that can be displayed in real time on an app on your mobile phone.
Many thanks as always to Rob of @robbrennanrc for the help making this video.

The amount of extras that come with this is an added value in itsself! Great review!
Many thanks, Matthew! Totally agree, the included spares are a massive bonus! Cheers!
That little thing is nutty fast on 3s!! It is crazy how fast they can get these little buggies going now!! Glad everyone's ankles came home safely in one piece!!
Sure is mental with the stock batteries, Addam! Yeah I could control it much better on 2S. I know what you mean about these little things, most are way faster than my Tamiyas!!! Take care, dude!
Great review guys, for the money you can't go wrong. The filming was exelent as usual.
Thanks a ton, Peter! Definitely worth the asking price in my humble opinion. Thanks for the ace support my friend, cheers! :)
Nice looking well built little RC, thanks for your upload mate 👍🙏🐈
Thank you my friend, yeah this is a tough little so and so! Have a great weekend there! 👍
Wow Mark! That is a cracking little buggy! Wakes up a bit on the 3s doesn’t it! Great review as always matey 👍🏻🙌🏻
Thanks a ton, Craig! Yeah, this thing could set your lap times on fire! Hope all is good with you, buddy, say hello to Mini for me!👍
Mine is going to be here tomorrow. I can't wait
Get ready for a wild ride!!! 🤪 😁👌👍
Hi Mark and Rob great presentation. This baby's a beast👍 Th manufactor has done awesome upgrades.
Many thanks, Dirk! Oh yes, this sure is a beast of a baby RC! Agreed, the upgrades are all good! Cheers and have a great weekend my friend! :))
@@MarkBryanRC this I wish you too
@@RCBirds Thank you, Dirk! :)
Good to see you back in the videos Rob!
Seems like you got your mojo back, i hope your are feeling better these days 👍
Hi Pete, yes it's great to have Rob back! I think his mojo is slowly returning. Thanks for the comment 👍 😀
That little thing was a rrrrrrriiippppppppper lol awsomme little truck mark and nice over view buddy
Hi Tibs hope you are doing well my friend. Oh yes this thing is on steroids!!! It did put a big smile on my face though ☺ cheers 🍻 bud!
Awsomme 😁
Hi Mark, I gotta say it's a real bonus that this buggy has a separate ESC / receiver rather than those 2 in 1 affairs. I think most of the small Axial trucks have a combined unit and it completely put me off getting the Yeti Junior. 36mph, that's nuts for such a small vehicle and congrats on your excellent driving skills on the concrete. If that had been me it would have wound up in the far bushes, never to be seen again. In many ways this reminds me of the Traxxas 1/16 E-Revo - looks, speed, durability, fun factor but for a quarter of the price. You can't beat these for value. Great stuff as always dude...😁👍🏻😁👍🏻.
Hi mate, you know, it only seems like a little thing but I totally agree that having a separate ESC & receiver really raises this buggy into the hobby grade arena. As you say, for the price this thing is well specified and performance doesn't disappoint. But oh boy was I struggling to keep it straight on that speed test! Good job it's a tough bugger! Not tried the revo but it does sound similar in design. Anyway thanks for the top comment as ever and hope you have a great Sunday 👍 👌 😀
The chassis looks nice and clean, I like all the separate electronics. Oil shocks, adjustable toe. These companies are really listening to the complaints. It only costs a bit more to have really good components. 2S is sufficient. 3S is insane. This little buggy is a beast. 37mph is excellent. Our formula: Advertised speed divided by 2 does not apply. Did well on the dirt. You launched it off that one jump in slow mo. Great basher, great vid. I may have to get one of these 😀
Hi Paul, yes one of the reasons I really like this one is because of the hobby grade electronics. And the excellent chassis specification, it feels like a "proper" buggy! Hehe, yes our old formula doesn't work on this beast, especially on 3S!!! I was amazed at how far it jumped off those little dirt ridges. Speed has a lot to do with it! It certainly wont disappoint, buddy! Take care :)
What would be some upgrades you can do to the 16207 ? I’m more into speed
WOW, what a rocket on 3S!!!! I cant really type what I'm thinking about this little truck (All good stuff mate), just keeping the text clean, LOL. What a great video, well said and awesome run(s)!!!! Have a great weekend to my friends across the pond and the families too.
Hi dude, yeah this is a mental pocket rocket 🚀 😄 Glad you kept it clean, wouldn't want your comment going in the bin! Glad you liked the video my friend, best to you and your family too mate 👍
Hello, Mark.
I thought that you guys did a great job of comparing this buggy with its brushed predecessor and pointing out all the detail differences.
And what a buggy it is - it's absolutely wicked on 3S!
Thanks for that compliment, Del, always appreciated! Oh yes, this thing is on steroids! To fast for me, I'm getting too old for anything over 30mph!
@@MarkBryanRC My 1:16 Slash goes zooming along, and then, for no apparent reason, suddenly it's tumbling end-over-end just as this buggy did. However, it cost a fortune to get that kind of performance back then, and this little buggy offers inexplicable forward rolls for a far more reasonable price.
Hi Mark, sorry for the late reply, I’ve been on holiday for a week and a bit. A great little buggy, is🎂😳😳😳
No worries - ever - my good friend! Hope the holiday was a good one, and welcome back!!! :)
Ah, Mark, one thing I noticed, your grass is totally scorched, what a summer you had there! I remember we had summers like that but this year we had enough rain in the mix to keep it all green...
Cool buggy and of course good Saturday morning entertainment for me, you and Rob are great fun as always. I know my money is going towards the Tamiya kits mostly, I will skip these new things. But I reckon there's a lot of kids getting this one, with its aluminium shin breaker ram thing on it, ha ha!
Have a great weekend there, buddy!
Haha 😄 shin breaker ram thing!!! Thanks Mads, that made me laugh!!!
But yeah, lots of folks love these little bashers so I'm happy to test them!
Oh, the weather here has been so hot 🔥 and dry, we really need some rain but I think there is more hot weather to come 😅 anyway thanks for the great comment mate, hope it's been a good one there!
Insanely fast, and very tough! Awesome review my friend, might have a look myself too. Take care and best wishes to you and the family. 😊😉😁👊🏼😄
Thanks John! You got that right, and thanks for the kind and supportive words, as ever. This buggy really is worth a look my friend. ATB straight back at ya!👍
@@MarkBryanRC hi there Mark, thank you my friend. Back from Lago di Garda, Italy. Missing the 31degrees and the excellent food and wine, but missed my RC’s even more (just don’t tell the misses🤣😂) take care and best wishes to you and the family 😊😉😁
@@JF-RC Sounds like you had a smashing holiday my friend! Take care!
That is nuts!!!
Sure is mate! Thanks for commenting, it's much appreciated! :O)
Hiya matey. Omg that does look a bit bonkers. I can see why you thought that the Tamiya Avante looked a bit slow. It's a different world with these 3s cars as I've found with the Arrma ones. They are rather bigger though so this little buggy must be quite a handful. If you can get this for under £100 then it must be worth it. Really good video that you put together here and always great to have you and Rob together. I'm pleased that you are getting sent things to review so you can keep the channel going without spending much. You were saying on a previous comment that you were feeling a bit better so I hope that continues. Tea time now which is curry so hoorah. Best wishes matey 😁
Hi Pete! Yeah, bonkers is the right word for this buggy. And you are right, we ran the Avante after this and it looked like it was in slow motion! A 1/16 scale going at 35+ mph is a real handful, I can tell you! But yeah, at 85 quid this think gives a lot of bang for your bucks and is very well built, too. I really appreciate the kind words mate, I know it's not a Tamiya but it still made me smile! That curry sounds good, gonna make a new batch of curries tomorrow. Enjoy the weekend my good mate! :))
Mmm, I love curry. I hope it was delicious!
@@Del350K4 it was! 😁
@@PeteWylieRC Yummy curry...
I was so impressed with the 16208 and 16209 so that I had no doubt in buying the 16207 as well. I can hardly wait for it to arrive!
I totally agree! The 16207 is a bit special though! Enjoy it! 😉
@@MarkBryanRC I am most probably going to put that 3S battery in the 16208 also and see how much more insane it can be than it already is! 🤣
@@philiprccars4340 Hold on too your hat!!! 😜😜👍👍
@@MarkBryanRC The MJX 16207 has arrived and it definitely is a mad machine!
@@philiprccars4340 Cool! I knew you would approve!!!
"Hasn't it, Rob?"
"yes"
"Aren't we, Rob?"
"yes"
"Don't you think, Rob?"
"yes"
i laughed, you guys have quite the dynamic
Well at least we made you laugh, so that's fine by me!! In fact you won't be surprised that other folk have said the same thing! 🤣👍
@@MarkBryanRC brilliant, never change!
@@bullfrogcristiplaka Cheers! 😎🙏👍
Cool and informative video!! I am considering buying the Hyper Go (same version as yours) because it's a very good looking RC, almost like a model on a shelf. And the speed is another reason. I already have 4 RC cars and this will be my fastest if/when I buy it. By the way you can buy one of these for about 120 - 150 US dollars.
Thanks a ton, Mark! I gotta say this is a really good buggy, it's one of the few that I've been sent to review that I actually take out regularly for some fun! So far it's been strong and reliable and it's still as fast, I fact I often run it with a 2s battery as it's fast enough! 120 dollars is a bargain 👌 All the best from Mark 👍
VERY short Wheelbase and Wheel Track.... I can't see it as anything but squirreley!! Again, looks like a TON of fun! 😀
Oh yeah! Totally, I do hope you are doing better than last time we spoke!
@@MarkBryanRC
I could be released from Hospital tomorrow!! Temperature, normal!!
I'll still be quarantined, of course, but I'm definitely doing better!
Thanks Mate!!
Honey I shrunk the TT-02B!! 😅😜
Honestly, that seems like a FUN little Buggy. I'd have a go at one! The Radio is COOL with built-in GPS!
BTW..... NO SUCH THING as too fast!! 😵😉 (although my 38mph M05 came close!)
Cheers Gentlemen!! 🍻🍺🇺🇲🇬🇧🍻
38mph IS bookin for a 1/16th Scale! Really looks like great fun 😀
AMAZING AIR on the Grass run!!
Hi Carm, Yeah, this has a lot of TT02B genes, but just shrunk! You have a keen eye and mind!
The GPS kit is very cool and great for more speed tests in the future.
I'm just so lucky they sent this stuff free for test, and I really appreciate it.
Haha, yeah, there really is "too fast" !!! For me at least!
Too right mate!!! :))
You're lucky indeed, Mukka!! Rioollarido (however it's spelled!) Offered me a try.... if I PAID up front!! If I Could afford that, I'd buy one to keep, not try out! 😡
Haven't been Offered anyone else's 😕
GPS built-in IS an impressive feature!!
ATB dear friend! Stay HEALTHY!!
I definitely saw the TT-02B inspiration in that.
34❤️👍👍👍
Amazing and fantastic sharing friend
Thanks very much my friend 😀 👍
Great vid Mark,what do you prefer a stick transmitter or a wheel.
Thanks col, I'm definitely a twin stick man, although with all the practice I'm getting with these RTR trucks I'm improving on the wheel radios!!!
@@MarkBryanRC yeah I'm stick as well,old school,temted to try a wheel tho.cheers
Nothing wrong with old skool, bud, but those wheel radios are everywhere nowadays!
Damn if old dudes in my country were reviewing toy cars people would make fun of em. I'm 34 and I'm getting into hobby rc now. 😂😂
I think you are never too old and I'm 60 years old! What country are you in that people would make fun?!?!? That's a shame! Good to hear you're getting into the hobby - have fun! 😎👊👍
@@MarkBryanRC India.. here old men talk about politics nd stuff. I always wanted to RC cars when I was young but they were pricey. Now that I have a job I can finally afford one . I'm getting the same model which you reviewed.
@@fzz6716 Ah I see! I find politics essential but boring! I got into RC cars when I was 20 and have stayed in the hobby ever since then. This model I reviewed is so fast and is vey reliable - enjoy!
Think this could do with a gyro to tame the little beast. The wheelbase is so short. You should try the 3s in the old buggy.
Good thinking, Alan! Yeah, this really needs taming, but it was a blast to run, all the same. Yeah, short wheelbase and all that power = squirrelly! Good idea, I might just plug the 3s in the old buggy and hope it don't fry! Have a good one, dude! :O)
Does the controller use a triple a battery?
Hi there! No, the controller uses 3 AA 1.5v batteries. :)
What are the dimensions of the 2s Lipo?
22x35x80mm. Hope this helps! :)
This looks way faster than all my nimh powered tamiyas !
Hi bud - yeah, this is a bit too fast on 3s, for me, anyway, I'm used to the slower Tamiyas, too! Thanks for the comment, always appreciated here! :O)
@@MarkBryanRC nice little car though, a good find there !
Can't find the Radio on Amazon 😐
Try Banggood or Ali Express, I think they might stock them! 😎👍
Decent bro I got rid of my hbx 16889 pro way to many screws mate quick one do you know anybody or any company that does custom made body's mate I've got an sg 1603 custom max10 cf build I need a body for mate and also if I get a wltoys 184016 or this one in couple days mate sorry bro I suffer with autism and ADHD etc and find it all very hard work mate 🙏💚👊
Hi Jordan, great to read you dude! Sorry to say that I don't know anyone that makes custom bodies, maybe you could find an off-the-shelf body from another RC car that will fit your chassis?
No worries mate, your comment was very clear to read, no way I could tell you have autism or ADHD. Take care mate and if there is any way I can help then just ask. Take care, dude! :O)
@@MarkBryanRC no problem mate and good to speak to you man and yeah that's the problem I'm having because it's 1/16 scale and around 170mm wheelbase and yeah I do my best and have to think before I right etc or it comes out wrong mate 🙂
@@sTuPiDiScOoL_ Hi mate, is this kind of body any good to you? i did a search on 1/16 rc body and 170mm rc body:

@@MarkBryanRC I'm after like a mini speed run body mate like the delta plastic Ferrari or something but not sure how would get it to fit as they 180mm mate IL show you example 🙂
Pretty much the same as my HYPER GO H16BM 😜👊👍✌️🦅🦼🇺🇸
Yep - blooming good little cars! 😎👍
