Max is a beast! I agree!

Glad you have taken an interest into crawlers recently. I started watching you when I got back into rcs bashers is what I thought I was into but quickly learned crawlers are where it is at for me. I'm deep now lol

Thanks! Yes I Definitely have fun with all sides of the hobby. Street cars are super cool too! The low stress of crawling is awesome where you’re not as likely to break anything lol

You always do such a nice job. Awesome truck. Super simple design that works well. 👍

Very capable! Danchee is out here doing big things. I have a Ridgerock. I believe Danchee said it was splash resistant not water proof. But itl looks fine and still working. Great video as always Evan.

Nope it’s at a local park! Definitely will be more!

That rig DESPERATELY needs lighter shock fluid and some tire weights on the front. The lighter fluid will help the springs apply more downward pressure to the ground and the weights in the front wheels will help with cresting ridges and give more front traction bite. Just those 2 things will DRAMATICALLY change the way it traverses the rocks.

@DerbyCityRC

Ай бұрын

I agree on both counts! Forgot to mention the shock fluid, but yes they’re tuned like a basher lol

And or is it worth putting in the spacers for more stability?

Looks like a ftx ravine / danchee ridgerock / t2m pirate swinger ?

@DerbyCityRC

Ай бұрын

Similar to the ridgerock but I believe suspension is different, tires are bigger on the rock, and body of course. Not sure about the others

I know this is random, but can you recommend a wheel spacer for the hyper 816 BM?

@DerbyCityRC

Ай бұрын

These are the ones I typically use: amzn.to/4bzPzvN Some cars you have to drill the center of the wheel to 5mm and sometimes you even have to drill the center of these spacers to 5mm. Depends on the car, but I will say I’ve only tried them on the 1/14 hypergos. So I imagine it will work.

Well your video made me like it a little more but I still say feed it to the trex!

@DerbyCityRC

Ай бұрын

lol! Well it certainly couldn’t outrun it!

Okay, so here's a ridiculous question. And it's only ridiculous because it might actually not be as asinine as you would think. Is this truck ambidextrous? With motors in the front & back, AND 4WS, is there really a front and back of this truck? I mean, in theory, you could just put the body on, change the steering mode, reverse the throttle, and it's good to go, right?? I do love the features of this truck, along with the price point of it. Good highlight video!

@DerbyCityRC

Ай бұрын

So close! But the bumper sticks out further in the back and won’t let the front of the body down all the way. If you lift the body high enough, then you can. I was not impressed than I thought I would be! Thanks!

Hey I'm a Newby to hobby grade RC cars and I have something to ask I just got a Haiboxing 16890A and it came with 2 1050 man batteries it says Lithium ion on the batteries are they as Dangerous to store as the lipo batteries are ?? Do I need a battery bag to store them in ?? My cell phone and small power banks have Lithium ion batteries and I don't But anyone stores there cell phone in a Protective bag !! I know it's a dumb thing to ask but is it OK if I store the Lithium ion batteries in a plastic toll box along with the Controler and Spare parts ??

@DerbyCityRC

Ай бұрын

Ya the lithium ion batteries, to my knowledge, are safer. I’d still practice as many safety precautions as possible though. The batteries get banged around in the car sometimes and damage can make them unstable.

@DerbyCityRC I'm not going to be doing what you do to the cars In you're videos lol lol so is it OK to store them in a plastic tool box along with the Controler and other parts that I got with the car ? Or do I need to store them in a battery bag like the lipo batteries ?

I thought the truck performed very well with the tires on it. I think with some better tires it would be even better. As you said, the creek was no problem for it. You didn't mention anything that broke. I agree it would be a lot fun for this just starting out. A lot of people get into a hobby and then find it's not for them. With this truck they can get into and if they change their mind, they haven't broken the bank. I was surprised that it had all the features for the price. You gave it a good test and it appears you and the boys had fun.

It's a sweet entry level rig, praised by other crawler channels out there 👍 I wanted to hate on the dual motor design, but it's actually pretty smart with this application and I know there are some higher end rigs that use the dual motor setup. I'm getting a boat next though!🚤
