I Traveled OVER 8000km for THIS??!? The HPI Maverick Quantum RX Flux Rally Car is well...😮💨
Ойын-сауық
I really wanted this platform when it launched, but Canada said 'No sir, you can't eh!' So, I travelled across the globe and finally got my filthy hands on the HPI Quantum RX Flux 4S 1/8 4WD Rally Car in the UK!!! Am I happy with it? Did it live up to my expectations? How much sand got in my eyes? STAY TUNED to FIND OUT!!

Good to see you back making vids. Great cars but have their issues for sure. Same grub screw issue I had with mine just apply some red loctite and hope for the best. Slow servo, weak body, metal shielded bearings instead of rubber sealed. Check those bearings after all that sand for sure. After a few mods is a great car for the money.

Red loctite? No! Blue..Red will need to be heated up with a soldering iron in order to remove..And if you forget you put red on that grub screw and go to force it off you will strip it out..Blue is the key
Love going on vacation and coming home to a big box of RC in the front room ❤🎉😅

Looking forward to the follow up. Looked at them before the rally came out. Hope it's just a little fix. Keep smiling.
That thing flipp'in RIPS brah. So rad!
I love rc companies that cover their trim settings with a cover. Nothing like going somewhere to run your rc... then having to reset your settings because of the settings being touched. The cover saves all that frustration
"That's a lot of beach in there"-and then- "I'll hold it but i sh'ant giggle it about!" Priceless. I travelled 7000km from Newfoundland to BC and all I got was a TRX4m. 😂😂

Absolutely maniacal car you bought… till it broke! WTF! I’m sure it has something to do with at input gear grub screw or the gear itself. I’m sure you’ll have it fixed in a jiffy brother. Thanks for sharing! That’s pretty cool of Jono to do your dirty job of shaking that thing for you!😂😝✌🏻😃

That platform is sadly junk, and just a copy from a 8-9yours old China model i've found out. I had the maverick quantum flux.., it broke just by running on grass, almost every battery it broke something. And getting to the diffs, to put some grease in, take forever and a ton of screws. -getting the traxxas stuff, takes like 6 screws, and youre in the diff. Og 4 screws to get to the slipper. The maverick is just a pain. Litterally.
就這樣?

U Wonder why your car doesn't work and your gears are stripped but There you are, driving it in a bunch of sand which is one of the worst things you can do to an r c car If you want your car to last long don't drive and sand I've made the same mistake, and it saved me a lot of money in parts, not driving the sand
@disciplinerc

The gears were fine. It was a grub screw that came loose on the rear input gear. Easily fixed but a known issue with this chassis. I do agree with you tho, sand = a bad time 👍
If it is the differential, this car sucks..sorry
