@@koenv85 nice! Happy to hear my video/experience helped someone. I don’t know of any net small enough to fit this 1/18 scale car but maybe you can make something that’ll keep the dust/dirt out if you really like driving on that type of surface. I’ve never done it, but pantyhose comes to mind. Breathable yet would filter out some of the dirt - I think. Totally not sure but maybe worth trying.
I covered the vent holes on mine, with a waterproof adhesive tape, where no dust can get in, but it can stay cool and won't overheat. I'm running my hbx haiboxing 2022 model 18859.
mine has decent signal when its fully charged, sometimes throttle will bleep a little. But when its almost dead it gets to where it wont go, unless i walk up to it. But i can steer it still from a long way away. Would seem like no signal and it wouldnt steer. Any thoughts?
You shouldn’t run it that far down. You never want to run the battery dry. After awhile, you’ll get the hang of how it should feel and when the it starts to lose power, you’re likely at storage charge or 3.80v per cell. It’s okay to run it maybe another 3 minutes after that but I wouldn’t go much further before letting it cool before recharging.
Hello, I have a problem with my 9125 vehicle. The vehicle accelerates by itself when I touch the gas trigger, I cannot control the speed at all, it does not go behind. What could be the reason?
@@Funcentric I solved it, the problem was with the remote control. I took the turning part of the wheel, put it on the gas part and changed its place, it was fixed.
my q is I have the 1/12 scale army willies jeep and I turned it on and it won't stop running it stress l and r but the controller won't work what could be the problem
My Hoisim 9030 turns of when throttled. If I hold the switch on or depressed it will run but not like it should. I have replaced the ESC, Servo, and motor. Help.
I highly recommend HBX b/c of their customer service and superior products. Hoisim is non existent. I unfortunately don't know what to say about that brand. I've never come across a car that turns off when throttled. That's very unusual.
If you see this or someone know what wrong password tell me what to do my 1/18 Scale haiboxing rc cars won't turn on I try changing the battery it won't turn on the controller fine but the car won't start
Some owners of the HBX 16886 told that pinion is fixed and you can not change it like this model but with our lovely 16886 that not true. Please check also if your is like 16886. The pinion hole is not positioned in the middle vertical symmetry axle of the support but is a little bit eccentric. All the rest is symmetric and this means that you can fit the motor and the pinion closer or more far from spur. In this way you can have options to set it more far and install a wider spur gear or a wider pinion. Please check. Than usually the thermal glue/grease har not hard to remove and probably you can probably detach the heat sink and reuse it instead of thrown it away. Avoid gravel with a brushed off-road vehicle is like going to purchase dessert when you can not eat them. I'm thinking to cover the holes with nylon women socks with more or less textile armature based on how much the temperature change increase comparing it without sock. But needs time lot of different thickness socks an a remote temperature control to test. This anyway could be filter offroad debris. Waiting for your feedback ☺️
I had thought about covering up the holes too but I don’t want to get so involved in it. I’ll just avoid gravel all together. I have other cars that can run in gravel just fine. Each car has its own purpose. I won’t be taking the car apart again unless something breaks but the pinion is due to the motor mount. Yes, you can probably hack it so that you can change the mesh but that’s not really a beginner thing and like I’ve said with all Haiboxing vehicles, they’re not meant to modify the electronics so do at your own risk. I always recommend to run the drivetrain stock.
What is the purpose of this one if is an off-roader that can't handle the gravel? No critical but I really don't understand what is its purpose if not offroad
@@bipantera Just a warning. You're welcome to use it in gravel if you wish. Just want to warn people that they run the risk of the motor seizing. And b/c i know that people will do it anyway despite the warning, this video is instructional on how to respond if it does seize.
No, I won't be double checking the pinion. I'll just trust what you're saying is true about your 16886. I have no reason to doubt you. No reason for me to take my 18868 apart unless I'm repairing something. I have no plans to modify the 18868. I'll run it as is, but away from gravel.
Off-Road RCs are made for dirt and gravel, I mean you bought an off-road RC for a reason. I think you just gotta deal with it and take the chance, buy brushless, or buy a real brand RC such as Arrma or Traxxas. Its not a cheap hobby. Anyone who thinks they can get into Hobby-Grade RC for next to nothing are in for a very rude awakening.

Thank you so much! Also was under the assumption it could handle sand. Drove once and got stuck. Your video helped me fix it. Awesome!

Totally helped. It’s fixed. Thanks man!
@@chriswilson8849 Great to hear!
Great video 👍🏻🍻
Thanks. Had to get it out in a hurry because my last video said to run it on gravel or pavement. I was wrong.
I covered the vent holes on mine, with a waterproof adhesive tape, where no dust can get in, but it can stay cool and won't overheat. I'm running my hbx haiboxing 2022 model 18859.
How are you allowing heat to escape though?
@@Funcentric it's a breathable waterproof tape for wounds and I added a cooling fan. I ran it for 30min straight on a 2s it just got warm.
@@Funcentric I'm running this type of fan.

Hello, I have a problem with my 9125 vehicle. The vehicle accelerates by itself when I touch the gas trigger, I cannot control the speed at all, it does not go behind.
What could be the reason?
Does the motor make a noise or completely quiet? Does it turn?
@@Funcentric I solved it, the problem was with the remote control. I took the turning part of the wheel, put it on the gas part and changed its place, it was fixed.
my q is I have the 1/12 scale army willies jeep and I turned it on and it won't stop running it stress l and r but the controller won't work what could be the problem
Was brand new and used once. Now it will only work for 2 seconds then stops. Is there a reset?
I have the same problem ! Have you gotten any info on it ?
what if it goes slower on grass after use? but on concrete it runs smoothly
Yeah going slower on grass is to be expected.
I’ve got the same car, it’ll run for about 30 secs, then stop. Changed out the sec and motor. Still the same thing. I am at a loss.
Replace motor
My Hoisim 9030 turns of when throttled. If I hold the switch on or depressed it will run but not like it should. I have replaced the ESC, Servo, and motor. Help.
I highly recommend HBX b/c of their customer service and superior products. Hoisim is non existent. I unfortunately don't know what to say about that brand. I've never come across a car that turns off when throttled. That's very unusual.
my hbx is not turning but throttle works - any solutions?
Hopefully it’s just a broken servo. Reach out Haiboxing on Facebook groups. They have excellent customer service unlike WL toys.
Mine was that too but my dad wouldn't let me to buy motor
@@abdahmad8653 were you able to fix it using this method?
no
@@abdahmad8653 I see. It probably overheated. The brushed motors are cheaper but a lot less durable than the brushless ones.
Ok what app do i need to buy
@@abdahmad8653 app?
they now sell part for it now
Replacement motor? Yes.
Controller won't connect any ideas
Will need more info than that. Do you mean the esc or the transmitter? What do you mean by controller?
hey dude have u fix ur haiboxing rc
Yes, I cleaned the motor. Runs fine. The video is a warning to not run it while it's messed up or it could die completely and cannot be recovered.
If you see this or someone know what wrong password tell me what to do my 1/18 Scale haiboxing rc cars won't turn on I try changing the battery it won't turn on the controller fine but the car won't start
What have you tried so far? Any sounds? Any lights? Hard to diagnose without any info.

All the off-road brushed cars have the debris, dirt, dust, mud, muddy water problem. Which one do you have that not have this issue to solve?

Yup, got plenty of those. Just warning those who may be expecting something else and who may be new to the hobby unlike us.
i have the same truck, I have a problem where it turns on and esc blinks and when I try to steer or throttle it dies, even when battery is charged?
Contact HBX through the Facebook group. If it’s under warranty, you’ll likely get a new ESC.
@@Funcentric I dont remeber getting warrenty how do I check?
@@user-hv6vc3xz3i I would recommend just joining the Haiboxing Facebook group and asking Sy Llin about it to see how she can help.
