I seriously don't understand why this channel doesn't have 100k+ subs. The effort that goes into the editing and the sheer volume of content alone is worth the sub!
Agreed. I think he will get there, just takes time to get the algorithm to recognize you these days with so many other already established content creators.
Top recommendation. This thing is epic and my 3yr old has abused it and nothing has broken. Mine also came with a faulty remote. Car steers itself but luckily had another hbx 16889 brushed and that remote works perfectly. Excellent channel and this guy makes me feel enthusiastic about rc
I dig how you put so much effort into everything. Driving filming and editing. On top of keeping us entertained you keep the little ones involved. Great job!
Looking at getting my oldest her first car for her birthday so thanks for all the awesome footage. It’s good to know awesome content being made by a local guy!
Thanks man I appreciate that! Watching the full vid is the best form of support for us. Glad it was entertaining and helpful for you!! Greetings to you!!
These little trucks are pretty awesome. Nice catch off that jump. I have trouble with the steering on my HBX too. I found three baseball fields if that will suffice for the dirt you were wanting to run on. All I got so far
No crazy gasp-worthy performance, but it’s about what I expected. Hbx isn’t known for shattering expectations except for on durability most of the time lol Thanks man and thanks for being with me so long!! Always appreciate the comments and still replying to them as best I can 😃
I was unimpressed with this truck. I bought one a month or so ago, ran it once and haven't touched it since. The thing has these special sparking wheelie bar on it and it can't even wheelie!!! Your intro was sweet!!
I feel it could have gotten a bit of extra power, but I still enjoyed it. It wheelies, but it can’t hold one for long lol. So ya you’d think they would have made it so it could hold one atleast a little longer. I actually had no idea those wheels were supposed to spark 🤣 Thanks!
@@DerbyCityRC Yeah it isn't terrible or anything but not very exciting I would say or as exciting as others in its category. It just seems to be lacking. On the other hand it doesn't cost very much. It looks like they changed their advertising. It used to show a bunch of sparks coming off the metal wheels on the wheelie bar. Not sure if it is on the box?
@MagnifiedGiant no I didn’t notice any pictures with sparks. I felt this one was better than the 903a. That was just a repeat lol. Atleast this one was a little more original.
@@DerbyCityRC do I sense an upgrade video coming soon?? Lol This truck looks like it has great potential, just like most hbx rcs. I’m really surprised at how the wheelie bar broke and the dogbone bent so bad. I hope hbx didn’t downgrade the materials they use. My 16889 has been through hell and back the past couple years and only a couple parts have broken. How would you compare this to the 16889?
I agree and was thinking the same thing. I know I’ve had a few 16889a dog bones pop out, but I don’t recall them bending like that ever. It didn’t happen again so could have just been a really bad landing, but that’s also now two bad hbx remotes lately. I sure hope that’s coincidental too! I may upgrade this car but technically that 16889 I made longer and wider would be how I do it so not sure lol
Nice one, Evan. I hope "he" left some bubbles for you pop after your wrenching session. So therapeutic. Anyway, what a lot of car for the money. Even with the shock upgrade its still around £100, probably less in the US with your discount code.
After he had his way with the bubbles, my kids got ahold of them. None for me… oh the sadness… Yes I’m surprised it’s cheaper than the 16889a pro really. I feel it would have been better to put the oil shocks on and just make it $10 more but they didn’t ask me! Lol
Very cool/fun video Evan. It is a lot like the 16889A Pro but non Pro in some ways for sure 😉 Seems durable enough though, not bad handling either. Hey, thought for you. You should make a ramp of the back side of your big ramp make it a 2 way jumper then no more crashing into the back side of it. Hing it so you can flip it over onto the ramp to keep it easy to move around. Again A+++ on the video (Man, Max is getting BIG!!!)
Thanks Brad! I’ve had plans on adding a foldable or removable ramp to the back of that but just haven’t gone beyond the thought yet. Maybe one day 🤣 thanks and yes, Max is huge for his age. Smart too!! 😃
Nice work, did you get a speed run with the 14mt? Or 3s? Maybe like some others i have seen with simillar 35A 2s esc it just needs a 3s for claimed top speed 🤣
Hello, thx for the great vid!! Unfortunately the link to the oil filled shocks is not working (maybe because of the country I try to open them from?). What's the selling item number or the exact name of the shocks?
Great video, thank you. Do you know of metal upgrade parts that are available besides gearing? I was also thinking the WLTOYS 1/14 scale RC would probably have interchangeable parts, as both these RC are on the WLTOYS website.
Thanks! I don’t know for sure. Ali express seems to have more of that stuff, but I’ve never used them. The Wl toys definitely does not have interchangeable parts. They’re completely different vehicles. That’s interesting it’s on the wl website, but it’s probably not an official website. There are websites out there (some real, some scams so be careful) that list different brands even though it’s something like “Haiboxingrc.com.”
Definitely looking at one of these but what are parts availability like? Can get the 16889 parts everywhere from different brand names but what about this 1/14 hbx? Struggling to find anything for spares 🤷
Hbx is sometimes slow at getting spares in their website, Haiboxing-hobby.com, But if you go there and send them an email, they usually are able to get the part you need.
I tried the coupon code and when I put it in, it made the price go up to $123.99 before the discount, then took off $27.98 to make it $98.64. That’s still a couple bucks cheaper but feels like being misled by banggood. Awesome video though my man!
I didn’t feel the batteries for temperature in time, but in theory, since it shares the load like you said, it should help with that. I don’t really ever have excessive battery heat anyway though.
I use one similar to this when I’m not in a hurry: amzn.to/3rP6s3s The main one I have is from Lectron Pro but I don’t love it. I’m thinking about getting this one as it can charge tow at once and is from a brand that makes decent batteries: amzn.to/47bVvcr Thanks!!
Hello, i heard its only about 1.3CM longer than the 16889 but you said the width is the same. So are the rest of the parts like the arms, CVD's/Dog bones, Front/Rear bumper mounts the same as the 16889?
But which is better/ faster/more durable, 2996a or this one? Any chance of a comparison? And would they blend to make franken-truck? Love the videos BTW!
The 2996a is the best if all of those things I think. When I did my franken monster, there was something keeping me from being able to use the 2995/2996a suspension and I believe the control arms just didn’t match up well. I’m sure it could be done with some brain thoughts though! The 16889 and 901/903a and this 2105a chassis is awesome!
Man! I'm glad I have this little thing waiting to be played with. Pretty cool video, dude. I'm still annoyed by the guy who interrupted your cool video with them bubbles tough 😒
@@DerbyCityRC I'm not married, but I think I get a similar look with attitude from my dog. She'd rather be getting the attention and time I spend working on my rc cars....she's gotten too old to chase them now.
Well it’s not really a “pro” version but like I say in the video, the only thing keeping it from being pro are the shocks, so ya I feel it should have the better controller and I have no idea why it doesn’t lol
@@DerbyCityRC Even the 16889-A has the transmitter with the steering dual rate, so I do not understand why HBX walked two steps back with this one. The 16889-A has friction shocks, but at least it has the same transmitter as the PRO, not sure about the receivers though, don't know how to check if the black ...A RX/ESC is different from the Pro's orange RX/ESC. I just know another TH-camr tried his best to drown his HBX 16889A Pro and nothing bad happened to it. LOL!!!
@@DerbyCityRCAmen to that. I love a channel just like this one that has no cursing in it. People don't understand how many children actually watched this kind of content. And their parents scold them for cursing and you have other channels that's cursing almost every other word that comes out of their mouth. They're the channels that I don't watch. Even though I'm a grown up I don't like the support that type of language. Just because it's obvious enough that children do watch this stuff.😊😊 God bless you all. Keep up the good content and I'll definitely keep watching like I do everyday and all night. Lol Yes it's addicting. Especially your channel. 👍👍
Nice video dude! I been wondering when you were going to get this one. I been eyeing this one but I can’t find much info about it and I don’t see any parts yet. Do you know what parts fit? Does it use any of the 16889 parts?
It was a good one! It doesn’t use much or anything from the 16889. Most of the parts are from the EC30B. Chassis, suspension, and everything. Motor and esc look different though.
No it only increases run time 👍 If you hook them up in series instead of parallel (electrical speak), that will double the voltage, and in theory the speed, which in this case would likely cook the esc.
Awesome video Evan! I really like this truck! Can’t believe HBX would stop at the shocks! Guess they don’t really pay much attention to our videos! Or listen to what consumers are asking for. 🧐 Aside from the shock issue, it seems to be a decent truck!any sparks result from the wheelie bar wheels? Just chiming in, Now go play with some bubbles!🫧🫧👍🏻😎😝🍻
Thanks Robby! Ya just seems odd they would stop at the shocks. Especially since it looks like the T10 is the “non pro” version. Maybe they have plans to release another version lol I didn’t notice any sparks, in fact I didn’t even know it was supposed to spark until a few other commenters pointed it out lol When I fix it, I’ll check it in the dark! Thanks as always!! 😃😃
Thanks! You really don’t need to do anything special, it learns which esc is waiting for pairing automatically. Not all brands do this though. Luckily hbx does lol
Awesome video like usual! So Haiboxing has/had a promo for the 2105 "Duel" here in Canada. The "Duel" is the brushed 390 version. What parts list do you figure I would need to setup the "Duel" on brushless? The 2105A would have came close to $215 to get to me in Canada, but the "Duel" only cost me $89 with this promo haha. Cheaper than my son's 16889 brushed with the same 390 motor and my daughters 18858 with the 380 motor lol. I guess I would need a brushless motor, a new esc and would I need to do something else? Looks like hte same transmitter for 2105 vs 2105A...
Thanks! If it is the same transmitter, then that should be it unless you wanna fit oil filled shocks. I thought it was weird they came out with the duel, cuz they already had one called the T10 I think it was that was the brushed version of the 2105a. Lol They keep coming out with the same cars!! 🤣 But ya that seems like a darn good deal!
First off love your videos! Just getting into the hobby with a 16889a pro per your recommendation and loving it. I keep loosing the pins in the front cvds any idea where I can get those, Thnx and keep up the good work
I hope he replys to this comment too, but you can't get just the pins I don't think. I've used small finish nails and cut them to size. Works in a pinch, but I did see they make ones with a cvd joint instead. I wonder if that would be stronger? Evan? Thoughts?
It’s actually been a while since I lost one of those, but if I remember right, the same 2mm x 10mm wheel pins fit. I might be wrong. I haven’t seen any of the cv joint ones specific for this car. Once you get that sorted, you may be able to wrap one tight layer of electrical tape around the spring to keep it from loosening and allowing the pin to fly out. There’s not much room between the hub and axle though. Hope this helps!!
@@DerbyCityRC Sorry I meant drive shafts and BTW the wheel pins are thicker in diameter. I will try the electrical tape thnx for getting back, Bash on!
The lipo usually gets it a hair faster than the stock lithium ion, but I’m talking less than a mph. Using the connector doesn’t add speed or voltage, only battery run time.
@@DerbyCityRC No, I’m on a bit of an RC diet plan at the moment. I do want to get one though, just need to get some $$ together. Have you tried these: Bezgar HB161S, Hyper Go H16BM, HBX 16889a? Are they the same manufacturer? Hard to tell.
I do have those. The bezgar is the same as the h16bm. I did a comparison video on the 16889a vs the HyperGo you should watch IF those are two of your choices. They’re quite different from each other. Also, check out my hbx 2996a review and also the upgrade vid comparison. Love that truck! They’re all good though!
@@DerbyCityRC Yup, the cheapest RC cars I have, have friction shocks. - LOL WLToys had so much pushback about this that they delayed the release of their 124010 until they were able to release it with oil filled shocks.
@@DerbyCityRCThe ones that are actually much closer to the claimed top speeds are the JJRC/SuChiYu brushless cars. I don't know what the difference is with the electronics, but with which looks like the same green brushless motor in the HBX as in the SuChiYou, I expected it to do better than it did.
A few of them may fit, but not all of them. Most of the parts on the Stryker are from the Eachine EC30. What parts are you needing? Have you checked Haiboxing-hobby.com?
If a lot more people was like me I wouldn't purchase any vehicle without oil filled shocks or a brushless motor. Why would you do that. If people would do that maybe these companies would put oil filled shocks and brushless engines and all their vehicles. They got to realize this is the 2000s not 1917. Yeah they want to make money off of that stuff. Make money the right way You can make money off your stuff when stuff breaks then we'll buy it. People would be more likely to buy your vehicles if they had brushless engines and oil filled shocks. And like I said when things break then we will buy parts then you can make your money that way. Thanks for listening. God bless you all.😮😊😊

They keep coming out with the same cars!! 🤣
But ya that seems like a darn good deal!
Yeah, it’s called Duel, but they have dual bodies LOL
@derekarsenault3652 🤣
Great video keep up the great work.
Thanks!
A great review as always!!!
Thanks!!
First off love your videos! Just getting into the hobby with a 16889a pro per your recommendation and loving it. I keep loosing the pins in the front cvds any idea where I can get those, Thnx and keep up the good work
I hope he replys to this comment too, but you can't get just the pins I don't think. I've used small finish nails and cut them to size. Works in a pinch, but I did see they make ones with a cvd joint instead. I wonder if that would be stronger? Evan? Thoughts?
It’s actually been a while since I lost one of those, but if I remember right, the same 2mm x 10mm wheel pins fit. I might be wrong. I haven’t seen any of the cv joint ones specific for this car. Once you get that sorted, you may be able to wrap one tight layer of electrical tape around the spring to keep it from loosening and allowing the pin to fly out. There’s not much room between the hub and axle though. Hope this helps!!
Thanks!
Where have you seen cvd joints for this car? That would be cool!
@@DerbyCityRC Sorry I meant drive shafts and BTW the wheel pins are thicker in diameter. I will try the electrical tape thnx for getting back, Bash on!
Ok I couldn’t remember if the pins were the same or not. I have some 1.5mm pins as well so maybe I’ve used those. Hopefully that e-tape works!
Is he better then the hbx 16889 pro?
With the better tires and shocks, it comes close. Not sure it’s better though.
Does this 2 battery connector for the esc increase the final speed?
The lipo usually gets it a hair faster than the stock lithium ion, but I’m talking less than a mph. Using the connector doesn’t add speed or voltage, only battery run time.
@@DerbyCityRC I got it, thanks
Is derby city rc from Louisville?
It is lol.
Are you?
Yes I am. I love the channel. Been in the hobby for two years. Would love to do some rc stuff sometime.
Been about two years myself.
Send me an email at derbycityrc@yahoo.com
Nice catch.
Thanks!! Did you get an hbx yet?
@@DerbyCityRC No, I’m on a bit of an RC diet plan at the moment. I do want to get one though, just need to get some $$ together. Have you tried these: Bezgar HB161S, Hyper Go H16BM, HBX 16889a? Are they the same manufacturer? Hard to tell.
And now you just put up the 14MT video! More expensive though.
I do have those. The bezgar is the same as the h16bm.
I did a comparison video on the 16889a vs the HyperGo you should watch IF those are two of your choices. They’re quite different from each other. Also, check out my hbx 2996a review and also the upgrade vid comparison. Love that truck! They’re all good though!
@@DerbyCityRC What’s your favorite for all-around fun & durability?
Seriously HBX, LynxTech, a RC in this price class with Friction shocks, are you kidding me?!
I know man! The whole world is screaming to stop that garbage! Lol
@@DerbyCityRC Yup, the cheapest RC cars I have, have friction shocks. - LOL WLToys had so much pushback about this that they delayed the release of their 124010 until they were able to release it with oil filled shocks.
@philiprccars4340 I know I love it lol
They claimed 80km/h for this, so really a huge difference!
Yup unfortunately that’s what they tend to do.
@@DerbyCityRCThe ones that are actually much closer to the claimed top speeds are the JJRC/SuChiYu brushless cars. I don't know what the difference is with the electronics, but with which looks like the same green brushless motor in the HBX as in the SuChiYou, I expected it to do better than it did.
The reflex is stiff competition at $215.
Hi, do you know if the 16890a Destroyes parts fit the 2105a Stryker? I'm having trouble finding replacement parts for the Stryker. thanks.
A few of them may fit, but not all of them. Most of the parts on the Stryker are from the Eachine EC30.
What parts are you needing?
Have you checked Haiboxing-hobby.com?
If a lot more people was like me I wouldn't purchase any vehicle without oil filled shocks or a brushless motor. Why would you do that. If people would do that maybe these companies would put oil filled shocks and brushless engines and all their vehicles. They got to realize this is the 2000s not 1917. Yeah they want to make money off of that stuff. Make money the right way You can make money off your stuff when stuff breaks then we'll buy it. People would be more likely to buy your vehicles if they had brushless engines and oil filled shocks. And like I said when things break then we will buy parts then you can make your money that way. Thanks for listening. God bless you all.😮😊😊
I think it will stop eventually!!
Your twin brother is a duckhead! ;-p
Dude I know! So immature!!
Hmm just slightly longer? That's underwhelming.. 😅
Ya. Too long and it would look like the Oscar Meyer Weiner-mobile lol
@@DerbyCityRC I was looking for a bigger size everything and not just a lengthen chassis... how about 1/16 to 1/14 in width and height?
@acche-rc ya that’s why I built the other one the way I did. Better control and hard to flip over lol
subs????
I’m taking applications 😃🤣
Cool stuff. Keep it up. Is there any way i could contact you?
Thanks.
