[@nickshermeyer4484]

U mentioned about one of the diffs grinding. How does the diffs and drivetrain hold up to all the extra power and can you get replacement parts?

[@DerbyCityRC]

Yes. With oversized tires and with 3s, the car basically destroys itself. Diffs, axles, lower control arms. I just filmed for a video today on it. Broke with almost every big jump. Honestly, since making this video, I’ve found a much better car to upgrade. Check this one out: kzbin.info/www/bejne/faexf513mqqhZ5I

Brenda right now I don't think you know but I have the holyton RC car it's kind of squirrely, but I do believe when you come visit you will totally fall in love with it

[@Molekulasti]

Those motors with ribs are 2847 in 3650 cans. ESC and motor have to work much harder to push heavier cars. Largest cars I'd put those systems in are 1:14 scale.

[@DerbyCityRC]

They can push these 1/12 scale cars ok, but they get hit much easier. I agree a true 36xx is a much better Choice.

[@lanzotv]

It’s been 2 weeks now that the RC bug bit me! After watching a whole bunch of KZbin vids, your channel really stands out to me… For a beginner, would you recommend the Deerc 9206e or the new upgraded 200e? I definitely want to do upgrades in the future! With both models having the same platform, minus the motor and esc, which one would make upgrades easier?

[@DerbyCityRC]

Thanks! I’m happy to hear that! Well if you plan on upgrading, I would go with the cheaper 9206e. I’m about to do a review on the 210e, but it may still be a few weeks. Have you set on these two cars for sure? Have you seen my videos on the Flyhal fc610? That is one of my favorite cheap cars and I’m about to do a budget brushless conversion on it.

[@lanzotv]

@@DerbyCityRC Yeah I’m pretty sold on this car… If I go with the 9206e then I would have to upgrade the receiver also. Right?

[@DerbyCityRC]

Thats correct. I’m not sure if the 200e comes with a separate receiver so if you were to upgrade that one, may still need to buy all the same parts (except the servo). I can say most likely buying your own brushless motor will be much more powerful that the 200e or the 210e, but I should know more once I review the 210e that’s in the mail.

[@lanzotv]

@@DerbyCityRC So, you didn’t change the servo on these builds??? Thanks for all the help and replies

[@DerbyCityRC]

I used to servo that comes with the brushless cars, like the 200e, so if you get a brushed one like the 9206e and convert it, you will need to get one of those servos, but If you get a 200e or a 210e and upgrade it, the servos those come with should be fine.

[@joshuacormier9294]

Do you think the cheaper* 60A esc you listed would work with an ARRMA blx 3800kv brushless motor?

[@DerbyCityRC]

I don’t think I would trust it. I’d stick with a higher brand esc for the higher brand motors. ESCs are usually the weak point and can catch fire.

[@skunko162]

@DerbyCityRc I had a question, I have a holyton 9200 E series car like the one in your left hand at the beginning of the video, in need to replace because the one of the steering dogbones in the rear because the spindle for the tire is slightly bent, and it seems that the bearing is causing the arm to be stuck in the hub, how do you get that out and have you been able to find the correct size bearing to put into a new hub? Also what banded tires have you found fit the car, I keep buying 1:10 scale tires for it and they are too big, I am afraid I will be burning up a pinion gear.

[@DerbyCityRC]

Sometimes those axle stubs are tough to get out from the bearings and it just takes force or gentle prying. Sometimes when they bend, they “friction fit” to the bearing. I don’t remember off hand what size the bearings are. I have it in one of my other Holyton videos from a while ago but I can’t remember which one lol. This isn’t a true 1/10 scale car. It’s sized more like a 1/12 scale. So if you go for tires more for a 1/12 scale, that should help!

Hey I’m still thinking of getting the max 10 hobbywing but i want to ask if im forced to buy a new receiver if I do buy the max 10? Plz respond

[@DerbyCityRC]

It’s a great system, but yes the stock esc on most of these cheaper vehicles has the receiver built into it. So when replacing the esc, you also need a new receiver with transmitter

[@grantromriell4970]

are there other good battery options for a battery, and does the esc have an included connector

[@DerbyCityRC]

Yes Ovonic makes good batteries, but the ones that fit are currently out of stock

[@2hotkarzndelot745]

pin gear is it the stock one that will fit the motor or what kind you use

[@DerbyCityRC]

The stock one should last a while if you use the stock plastic spur gear. I ended up getting a Hot Racing pinion gear when I had a metal spur, but I went back to plastic. The pinion gear size is MOD 0.6, 22T. If used to be on Amazon but seems it no longer is.

[@santosmartinez3254]

Hi there need to find a charger not to expensive for the XT60 battery or can you get an adapter and charge it with the dean connector charger thank you

[@DerbyCityRC]

I’m actually not very fluent on chargers . I use basic USB chargers for all my batteries except an EC5 charger for my Kraton batteries. Check out Van City RC’s channel. He has reviewed a few chargers on his channel recently and they look like they have xt60 plugs!👍 Thanks for watching!

[@dehabify3244]

Also if I do get the max10 what gears do you recommend for top speed?

[@DerbyCityRC]

Unfortunately you can’t really change gear sizes on this car. It’s a fixed motor mount. I just use the stock spur with an upgraded 22T pinion, which is the stock size.

[@GordoDrummer]

Hey there! I have the DeeRC 9200e. Have any of yours have the pinion on the stock motor without a grubscrew? Mine doesn't, and won't come off the motor so I can take the motor plate off. Have you come across this before?

[@DerbyCityRC]

Hello! Yes I have had that issue. Seems all the newest ones don’t have the grub. I’ve just ordered a new pinion gear to solve that issue. Here is the ink to the proper gear. Then you can either order a new motor mount or carefully press or cut the old gear off so you can get the old mount off to reuse. Thanks for watching!!

I know this video is old but I have a 9206e that I converted to brushless for my 9 year old daughter. Problem is the 3s packs I bought will not let the factory hold down clip fit. You said you used straps. Id like to know where you went through on the chassis. I see the 2 holes on the outter part but where did you put the straps on the inside of the car towards the driveshaft?

[@DerbyCityRC]

When I did this, I believe I didn’t go through anything on the inside part, however, they have another car out that’s the exact same and they run bath straps through the slots on the upper chassis brace only. Even though they don’t line up perfectly with the battery tray. Either of those should work 👍

[@mrdevo1983]

Well here is the build for my daughter. I put a 3300kv 3660 surpass hobby motor and esc, larger tires, 2mm axle pins in drive axles, oil filled shocks, dumborc transmitter and receiver, and custom painted body. Look pretty good and she can’t wait to get it out. But the weather has been horrible. Thanks for all you do, a lot of my build, the influence came from your videos.

[@GordoDrummer]

Does anyone know if the Deerc 9200e have a low voltage cutoff with the stock setup?

I believe so. Before we upgraded our Holyton 9205e, which is the same car, it definitely seemed like it had a low voltage cut off.

[@TeachGosple82]

Hello you mentioned in your video about metal spur gear for this car do you have the link to where I can purchase them at please and thank you

[@DerbyCityRC]

Here is the metal spur I ordered. It worked well at first, but it takes some strange maneuvering to get the gear mesh to be correct (even though the mount is not adjustable). So I went back to plastic and have not had an issue with them yet. www.haiboxingtoys.com/pxtoys-9202-parts/2754-pxtoys-9202-upgrade-parts-metal-reduction-gear.html

[@TeachGosple82]

Thanks bro I appreciate it

[@TeachGosple82]

The problem that I'm having is I upgraded my car to brushless and it stripped the spur gear I think it is too much power for the plastic spur

[@DerbyCityRC]

That’s interesting. You should watch some of my other videos on that car. I blast the crap out of it and have yet to strip a spur gear. Actually the metal spur gear stripped out my pinion gear, so I had to get a stronger pinion also, but like I said, I have since gone back to plastic. But I was able to get the metal one to work after a bit of trial and error. Mesh was too tight, but loosening and tightening the gear cover a few times seemed to help 👍👍
