      So that's why I am looking for something else that is just a touch more forgiving than the Kraton. I love it, but I am waiting on parts for it already.
      Thinking maybe a Granite would fit the bill. Plus a 903A, seeings as the 901s are good!

    Would you mind doing a comparison between the new X-08 and the hbx 2995? I'm just wondering how they stack up in your opinion. I'm torn between the 2 and each one has something the other doesn't but I'm not sure which would be the better choice.

    • @DerbyCityRC
      @DerbyCityRC  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      That could be something I do eventually, but I have a few reviews I have to get done first. A few quick points would be that the 2995 will be more durable and the Hosim will be faster. It blows my mind that no one has made a brushless version of the 2995 yet. When they do, it will be huge and would be a better candidate for a compare video with this Hosim because it will be able to perform similarly. My recommendation is a 2995 with upgrades. Have you seen my upgrade videos on it and the Flyhal fc610?

    Awesome review man! Cool truck and seems pretty durable but that auto brake thing the esc does would make it a no go for me.

    First I want to say I'm new to rc cars and have been watching your videos for about 2 weeks now. Love your personality and humor but still a great review.
    So I bought this car right away and got it Wednesday. I've played though the 2 batteries and on friday bought a 3s battery. This this is a rocket ship, until i stripped out the front differential gears. I noticed you saying you didn't see any grease, Is that something i should have checked for before i took it out?
    One last thing, do you (or can you) post repair videos?

    • @DerbyCityRC
      @DerbyCityRC  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Glad you like the videos! It’s kind of a good idea to check for grease in every RC car, but I usually don’t lol. There are reports of these diffs having issues but I haven’t seen it yet. Front diffs are a common problem on a lot of RCs though so not surprised at all. Most likely having grease (if there wasn’t any) wouldn’t have changed the outcome. 3s batteries on a car that technically should just be 2s along with heavy starts and stops and jumps will ruin front diffs. Especially if they use low grade metal, which is also common on many brands. Haven’t looked at Hosim diffs before.
      I do post repair videos, but they’re usually just in the beginning if another video. For example if I were to break something on this Hosim, my next video that features it would likely have the repair in it. Not necessarily a tutorial, but just a quick shot of each step.

      Glad you liked the review! I’ve found that the HBX 2996a is probably an even better choice for pretty close to the same amount. I’ve got a couple videos on that one you can check out if you want.
      If you still decide on this one, the battery I linked won’t need an adapter, but it’s a slightly different battery than the one I tried as I couldn’t find the exact one, and Hosim does use an odd size battery tray. It looks like the same size as what I used, I just don’t want to swear by it.

    • @DerbyCityRC
      @DerbyCityRC  ปีที่แล้ว

      It wasn’t every time but it was sometimes. Mainly if I had to do any throttle correction in the air is when it would apply the drag brake. That usually is a programming deal but I’m not sure that esc can be programmed.

    • @DerbyCityRC
      @DerbyCityRC  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      There is actually. I forgot to mention that. It was very slight and didn’t do it every time. Seems like it only did it if you had to hit the throttle in the air to control the landing and then it would apply a slight drag brake and make you need to keep correcting. You can definitely see it in a couple of my jumps. It didn’t seem to drag when staying on the ground though. Another thing it did, was if you push the brake to slow the car down, you could just push the trigger forward and let go of it and it would auto stop. Didn’t have to hold the brake on. Made for some good brakes really.

    Digging your channel and love that you really beat these cars up to see how they hold up to the punishment. Question....my wife has decided she wants an RC car to play with while camping. So I've been doing a ton of research and think I have it narrowed down to the Hosim X07/08 and the MJX Hyper Go 16BM. Both seem to have a lot of nice, sturdy upgrades. I think you beat on both of them pretty well. Do you favor one over the other? I know they are 2 different size cars but they are in similar price points. Any direct comparisons of these on your channel?

    • @DerbyCityRC
      @DerbyCityRC  ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks man! So a few pointers for you. I feel the little HyperGo may struggle more off-road as it is a somewhat easy car to tip over. On concrete anyway. Maybe won’t be as bad on dirt, but definitely is in grass. The Hosim is ok, but I hear alot of complaints in quality even though I haven’t run into it yet. I highly recommend this one. If you haven’t seen this, check it out. Slightly more expensive but for very good reason. Also, it takes upgrades extremely well, which I showcase in my latest video.

    • @DerbyCityRC
      @DerbyCityRC  9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      A somewhat slow rebound is good. It has oil filled shocks and keeps it from being bouncy. Also, sometimes not going to full height is good too for better ground handling, but there should be a ring that can screw down the shock body to tighten the springs and give them more upward pushing power.

    Quick question I know you like using drywall tape and shoe goo for your bodies to make them stronger and last longer. Question is have you ever tried flex seal put a couple coats underneath there? I saw one TH-camr do that but I didn't see any results on how well it sticks or how it worked or how long it lasted. It'd be nice to shoot a video with undercoating or flex seal something that sprays on or you can brush it on and is also flexible. I wanted to see other TH-camrs results on that before I did it to my car. Lol😂😂 My guess is that it will work very well especially the flex seal. 👍👍

    • @DerbyCityRC
      @DerbyCityRC  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Actually, I did try that in this video here.
      This was a long time ago so forgive the video quality, but results weren’t bad. I’ve got another method I’m going to try soon too, but with the flex seal, so what I did, but do like 3 light coats instead of just one. Let dry between each. th-cam.com/video/tntdPKS-zQA/w-d-xo.htmlsi=ILv0jJ9vhQkA1Qat

      I tried a cheap spray bed liner and had terrible results. Actually made the it brittle and cracked easily. I’m sure a better quality one may have better results, it just needs to be flexible.

  • @philote09
    @philote09 ปีที่แล้ว

    Does it have a slipper clutch? I broke both my diffs on the X-07 with what I would regard as light driving and jumping, and my assumption is that the diffs have to cope with too strong forces when doing wheelies or landing from jump with wheel speed not matching landed driving speed. Or of course the diffs are just too small with this 1:10 car, as RC Guy Garage thinks (he also broke at least one diff).

    • @DerbyCityRC
      @DerbyCityRC  ปีที่แล้ว

      It does not have a slipper clutch. Very few of these cheaper RCs do, which is why I recommend the HBX 2995 or the Flyhal fc610 so much. It’s got a center differential. Because yes not having a slip system is very hard in the diffs.

    • @philote09
      @philote09 ปีที่แล้ว

      ​@@DerbyCityRC Thanks, thought so. Very minor changes over the X-07 only. Comparatively heavy car, undersized diffs, plus no slipper clutch is really a bad design flaw. And I wouldn't call the X-07 / X-08 cheap, it's a budget, but still hobby-grade car. My son's car (1:10 Sand Buggy) cost the same but does have a slipper clutch.
      I never understand why often a center diff is regarded as sort-of replacement for a slipper clutch. It only makes a difference if the car lands on two rather than all four wheels, and then the inertia of big wheels to speed up in reverse and a fraction of a second later in forward direction is probably as taxing on the diff gears.

    • @DerbyCityRC
      @DerbyCityRC  ปีที่แล้ว

      Ya I agree!! That’s awesome the sand buggy has a slipper. These Chinese companies really need to get on board with that (or the center diff) they both offer gear protection but the center diff also increases handling if tuned properly

    Just drove mine for the 3rd time. Not sure what you call them but the retainers for the back wheels are all loose now they hang and rattle around the dogbone.
    Also I notice that the L/R trim on the remote only really adjusts to turn right. If I have the knob turned all the way left the wheels are straight but offer no way to trim left. It’s all trim right. Have you ever run into this on any of your cars?

    • @DerbyCityRC
      @DerbyCityRC  9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Are you talking about the little springs on the dogbones? I can’t remember if this uses those in the rear. That’s common on a few different cars and can be a nuisance. Never had it happen on a Hosim yet, it’s usually HBX.
      To fix your trim issue. Turn off car and remote. Remove screw that holds the servo arm to the servo and remove servo arm. Set the trim knob to the middle position on the remote. Turn on the car and remote and the servo should self center. Now reinstall the servo arm making sure the front wheels are straight ahead. I have that highlighted pretty quickly in this short video for a different car. That should fix your issue. th-cam.com/users/shortsDLSbFodu46M?si=6ud5aCKWuOfXBWAp
