Unfortunately here in the UK we are in Lockdown again so thought i would use this time to take another look at the TOP 5 Cheap RC's list and make a couple of changes for 2021! 😏 Does the 144001 still deserve the no 1 spot? I think it does. The 124019 and 124018 are great and the extra wheelbase makes them very stable especially at speed but can you justify the extra cost? Let me know if you would change anything about this list. Cheers guys and see you on the next one!

I think I would go with #1-124019,#2-144001, #3-124018, and the reason for 144001 being #2 instead of #3 is because of the shorter wheel base, and price. The 124018 could be #1 if your preference is more off road driving. Have you found the 124019/18 for a 100? I got 3 batteries, but paid 150.00+

And damn!!!! The DF Models Z06 Evolution is freaking crazy for less than $100!!!!!! Made by Wltoys. It is 4 wheel drive, 60mph, hella durable, cheap replacement parts!

Love this channel so much! Great stuff mate. I think there are so many decent options out there at the entry/budget end of the RC market. I think a lot of RC snobs are so anti budget RC cars but there is so much to like about them....and upgrading them is fun!! Also it is a great start point for so many people to start out in the hobby, and when they break it’s normally easy and cheap to fix!

Not everyone wants to spend a fortune on one of the bigger brands and these cheap budget RC's are an ideal way for someone to get into the RC hobby and move on to the bigger more expensive brands later on. They may not be the RC enthusiasts first choice but for a beginner you really cant go wrong with any of the 5 mentioned!

Few things to add to the hbx. That dam truck is indestructible. It's light. It's quick. But 22-24mph is really a sweat spot to where it's fast, but not too fast that any crash will rek it. Stock, it beats out all the wltoys imo with just 20min runtime alone versus 7 on the wltoys. I own the wltoys and it's upgraded to brushless. Fun buggy, but not a basher.

Fantastic video and now I'm definitely considering buying one of those in the #1 spot, thanks! I do have to say that I hate background music in a video like this with people talking, it's really awful.

Got myself the 124019 and my nephew the hbx 16889, so i got to test 'em both. The 124019 is a real rocket, feels heavy. The hbx is a bit slower, but it is so much fun in the grass/dirt. It does seem to fall over a lot though :D. The 16889 is better for some offroading fun and the 124019 is better for speeding and showing off.

Honestly, do you think if I bought the HBX 16889, would it over shadow my modified 144001 (full electronic replacement, except I'm still using the stock motor)? I mostly run off road, (dirt, small roots, short/medium grass), and some on road. I would also take it off small/medium jumps. Do you think I should save the money for another different R/C? I have entry level crawlers (could you do a top 5 on those?) in mind. Edit: I'm also going to switch over to wider, tires with more grip on my 144001, they are like the ones that come on the 16889, but better. I really don't want to waste money on something I won't use that much.

I would say the 144001 beats the 16889 every time. The hbx 16889 is a great little monster truck but its probably the least hobby grade on the list. Ideal for an absolute beginner. It would make a great addition to your collection and with some oil filled shocks will feel great on jumps but I think as you already have the 144001 which is a great buggy the next step after that would be something else not the 16889. I will look at doing a crawler vid in the coming months 😏👍

Stock. I like a brushless hbx way more than my wltoys. That car is practically indestructible. Easily get 20 min of runtime and close to 40 on a bigger 2200 lipo. It's light weight so it bounces off crashes rather than break. Perfect basher, can't go fast enough to really cause damage but 22-24mph is plenty for a small scale. Meanwhile my wltoys has broke ever c hub arm you can imagine. If you're just going to bash the get the hbx. If you want a faster buggy that's less runtime and easier to break, get the wltoys. Both are great but my hbx puts a smile on. The wltoys I'm always nervous about a crash.

@Raul Delgadillo thanks for the feedback. I don't give my 144001 h*ll like some people do, but I haven't broke any parts yet. Only thing I've broke is the stock servo, (driving inside + younger sibling chasing it + table leg = broken servo) and I actually think that was a good thing because it gave me an excuse to upgrade and tinker with my car. I fitted a new brushed ESC, new servo, and a DumboRC radio and receiver set. I love my upgraded 144001, probably going brushless after the stock motor is done. Plus, if you limit the top speed, you can get good run times.

I just purchased the 16889 after reviews from this channel and a few others. Really enjoying your content. Any UK shops have spares for these RC's? I should have got the oil shocks on the car order! Hindsight hey :(
