If you decide to go the Hobbywing option, it goes well beyond the x07 and still keeps its durability. Happy new year to you too!!

So this car is based off of the hbx 2995 while the smyter is based off the hbx 903a. This car has a center differential and the 903a/Smyter does not. They do look very similar. The big tires are goofy, but they will wear out the drivetrain quicker on the Smyter than they will on this because the center differential helps take load off the drivetrain.

● BATTER INFO● = hey buddy- I found a 3s battery on Amazon that almost fits in the battery tray of the 16889a Pro! Just barely sticks up, but with the trucks strap, never had it come out on me, and I bash the hell out of it at the skatepark. Venom Fly 3s 800mah. Now I know it's low mah, but the run time isn't bad, & that pro is INSANE on it- you nail the gas, it comes ALIVE‼️🦾🦾 now they have the jst plugs on them, so I had to get a pack of adapters- amazon has them too. They are smaller in person than they look in the pictures. 👍👍

Hay man, I just upgraded my flyhal fc610 with a 5200kv motor and a 120 esc. I put everything on but it sounds pretty bad. I put a 16t pinion and a 17t pinion and both of them lost their teeth. How can I fix it?! 😢

@DerbyCityRC

5200kv is pretty high for that truck. Also, sounds like maybe the tooth pitch was wrong. They need to be a MOD 0.6

the pinion gear link is nothing like yours, it shows a pack of pinions 15-17t which is fine but I noticed in the video yours had a sort of collar you used but I do not see that in the pack. Is a program card needed for the motor combo?

@DerbyCityRC

That’s weird! I just checked it and it brings me to the correct page. Try typing in “Hot Racing 16T .6 mod” I did not use a program card. I think I tried to use one I had, but this esc doesn’t have the correct port. The way you see it in the video is the way it came out of the box 👍

Dunno if you remember my whinge about about my xmas present to myself of a fc610 + eventual (quick) upgrade to brushless etc, being lost by aliexpress or the company that sold it through them. Ok, now normally I could hit a dispute button......but.......although the company selling it messaged me half a dozen times with 'no stock' and sometimes 'cancel order' I could not due to somehow the item being marked as shipped. This changes things, the dispute button disappeared (cuz it shipped) and I guess it will not reappear until after the longest possible delivery time + a extra week or two just to be sure. I was told by a Ali-E computer the item was shipped so i could not appeal until sometime in the middle of February. Talking to aliexpress is impossible....well without a dispute button it is. Anyway I bought a Flyhal fc600 brushless and a ton of larger batteries (actually the ones i think you suggested in one video and in a later video you said they both died so DO NOT get them lol (ugenex i think) well they are both doing well. \o/ While realising that the flyhal fc600 is amazing i do not want to try 3s without a better ESC that will squeeze in ........ideas?? The flyhal has that RED esc/receiver thingy, I am sure it must be in some of your other cars. Lastly I decided I wanted to get a Rival MT 10 but I saw there was a v2 coming (which is not as good it turns out) and my impatience got the better of me so I bought a ARRMA Granite, not the latest v3 but the earlier v2 with a little discount. Proper charger and a couple of 5000mah 2s batteries and it is awesome. (almost scared to try 3s in that, it is quick enough in 2s to self destruct, well on the concrete with kerbstones outside my house it is, maybe later in a better area with more space) The flyhal is going 3s, I just want a smallish but capable and not expensive esc. My plan is to get a dumbo xt6 with avc or whatever and stick it in the Granite, and the use the granites reciever/controller with the new esc in flyhal Hope you are ok , hey Max 🚕🚗🏎🚓 ps. I feel like you cost me a getting on for 1000$..........your damnn videos brought back all my Tamiya Pajero and Fox memories from my childhood. 😘

That stinks about Ali express! I’ve never bought from them cuz of stories I’ve heard like this. Banggood has been great so far. I haven’t tried a different esc in the little 1/16 scales yet. I have put 3s in them and it seems like if you keep it below a 35c, it may be ok. I have a 35c and mine cuts out at full throttle, but other people say it works perfectly with 3s and a 25-30c battery. The Urgenex ones did go out on me pretty quickly so they sent me two more lol. So far one of those has gone out but I used it quite a bit. I’ve been going for the ovonics and the Gens ace batts lately. They seem a little better. Glad I’ve helped you spend money on some awesome stuff 🤣🤣 Other people have told me the same thing lol Not to mention I make myself spend money. 😂😂 Thanks for watching!!

I need a push have a hard time Choosing between this and Hosim Brushless RC Cars 1:10 High Speed 68+KM Remote Control Car X-07 4WD Off Road RC Monster Trucks and this one never order anything on banggood before and they are the only one I can order this truck and parts don’t seem available for this one

@DerbyCityRC

Жыл бұрын

Banggood accepts PayPal and I’ve never had an issue. I do think they’re both good, but I have a feeling the Flyhal will be much more durable over time. Just get that Hobbywing kit I linked for it as well. Also don’t forget I have a coupon code on the truck ok with my link. The Hosim is faster out of the box, and was certainly fun, but it doesn’t have a center differential, and that does make a difference.

Depends on what speed you want. This tops out around 17 mph and the 2996a is around 28 I believe and comes with better tires.

Trying to upgrade a deerc 9206e to brushless. I got a s3650 3500kv motor, 60a esc, the servo you recommended, new transmitter and receiver. Put a 64t spur gear with a 18t pinion. ( only pinion that would fit with the crappy motor mount) Everything seems to run fine when it's on a stand. Once wheels are on and put on ground it doesn't go. I've watched videos and taken this car apart 2000000000 times. I'm not giving up!! Is there anything you can think of that I've done wrong? I'm not smart with the gear thing and I feel confident I have the mesh right. I'm just lost in the sauce on this. HELP!!!!
