LEGO Technic Audi RS Q e-tron 42160 Reviewed

[@pdfbro5118]

I think you built the hood wrong. 😅

[@Real_Octagon]

He built the whole thing wrong

[@bibasik7]

I am very happy to see non-planetary hubs with the new stronger CV joints! Planetary hubs are cool, but impractical for smaller sets.

[@Unbrickme]

It’s so good to see you on my channel again! I remember you did a ford raptor RC mod

[@eriknelsen5529]

I just noticed. You placed two of the front panels on the wrong side/backwards. The stickers don’t line up and the headlights are closer to the windshield instead of where they should be near the grill. Just letting you know.

[@Unbrickme]

I appreciate you telling me. I will fix it

[@dinhtuan752]

:)

[@alphaniner3770]

Lol, I was assembling the kit today and thought I was doing something wrong - turns out I wasn't, and it was because of this video. It looks pretty good the wrong way around - only the stickers don't line up (but do they ever really do...?) - it is a great model, only you have to use good batteries - on rechargeable it's a bit under powered.

[@dinhtuan752]

I checked the instructions real quick lol

[@ParadiseSwirl]

Thank god, I wasn't the only one who knew. I just finished building mine today, that's why I noticed his mistake

[@funnyduck4568]

Imagine if the little off roader actually good go 170 kilometers per hour

[@Unbrickme]

that would be, to put in some of my most commonly used words "insane, incredible, legendary, and revolutionary"

[@EvanMoon]

It would be a lot of grease on all of the hubs

[@ADHD69964]

That's funny😂, you just made my day

[@TheDotransporter]

I actually have RCs for speed, I got them to 45 mph and I can tell you crashing it at 45 I'll shatter in pieces, now 100 mph you won't find the parts!

[@carrerafreakphotography]

Would be illegal😅

[@mkprofessionalism]

Hi Unbrickme! This set is so much better than I thought because it has tons of new elements,great building techniques,nice parts pack for the price,new pieces. Groundbreaking set without a doubt! Nice content as usual! I send soon my cool Ideas project. 😊

[@Unbrickme]

Thanks! I look forward to seeing your ideas project

[@mkprofessionalism]

@@Unbrickme Thank you very much!

[@tylerfaubert1201]

As a leftie I think it should be a setting on where you want the controls. I for one would like the steering on the left but that’s bc of my bias. I would like them to have accurate distance for a trip or some type of way to see how far you actually drove

[@zanefelix9541]

6:45 there not supposed to overlap, you just put them on horrendously wrong and now i cant sleep

[@victorparchambault8962]

I got it and it the best set ever

[@TechJoe1994]

I picked mine up for 99 pounds brand new, bit disappointed with the speed, I'll likely buwizz it for more speed and better control.

Wwwhere did u buy it

[@Cyberdyne_research]

I’m definitely buying 4 of these bad boys. So many useful parts, a full rc kit, 3 motors, new tires, and everything you need to build an RC. All with the new control+ system. This finally makes PF obsolete. I can’t wait to redo all of my RC cars with the control+ system. This is hands down the best kit of 2023, and the best kit since the motorized excavator. Better than the 9398, and I’m going to use two of them and 8 motors to motorized one of my 8466(I own two and I finally have a reason to open the second one. It’s BNIB. Cost me a fortune)

[@soup_can469]

I honestly wish that the two driving L-motors were used in unison connected via gears(preferably the 12 and 20 tooth) and placed in the undercarriage, as it would not only improve stability, but increase power distribution and speed.

[@Unbrickme]

Agreed!

[@astonm1990]

I am left handed and even I would like the steering control on the right because its more natural to me. Usually steering is on the right anyway (mouse, game station controller).

[@Unbrickme]

Swappable controls are a MUST

[@RileyGoss]

Is the speed displayed in the app perhaps the scale speed?

[@ramonxulvi-mojarrango2474]

I'm glad lego made a lego set like this one with 3 motors under $200. A very affordable set.

[@Unbrickme]

Yes it’s awesome! Definitely better than the 4x4 xtreme off roader

[@ramonxulvi-mojarrango2474]

I'd rather have this set instead of every lego technic control plus set.

[@DragonOfCOD]

i got this set last night its my first motorized set and im lovin it

[@M1longer]

Quarter circle gears are not new, they are 2 years old, debuted in 75313 :)

[@welovenature360]

This is really an awesome set and parts kit. Please make more videos about this set and modifying this set. For example locking the diffs so wheels do not spin freely when in the air.

[@Seal-hs5il]

Wouldn’t the stickers get damaged if you use it in water?

[@Penguinlife5208]

Anyone else notice the river running backwards at 6:08

[@hamzapusic1345]

Yeah its kinda wierd😮

[@largewallofbeans9812]

Moments like this are where I miss stackable cables. It seems like a waste to use an extra drive port where a set of lights or something could be installed instead.

[@PraetorianAU]

To answer your final question, yes i will be getting this set. Ive been on the fence for a while but after watching your video, this convinced me. Thanks bro.

[@KannX]

OMG such a great model! I just bought Ford GT and still didn't assmble it. Next month gonna buy this Audi!! I wish it was a bit faster in a straight line but still it's such a great RC car ^^

[@SlavikKubikoff]

Awesome outdoor shooting!

[@bobbyc912]

Definitely going to get this Black Friday

Saw this in Costco and I just had to buy it

[@jessicaweatherall8165]

Any suggestions if the control+ hub won’t turn on at all? Have checked the batteries…

[@JirkaMichalik]

Thanks for an awesome review. I just decided I will be getting this set for my birthday! 🙂

[@Warmachine-fortnite]

I think this set has a lot of potential. Firstly, the price. The app-controlled transformation vehicle costs $140 and had only one less motor and 200 pieces less. I feel like this set is not worth it. Second, I feel that the 42140 of last year was a much more fun control+ set since it had that amazing flip function.

[@Unbrickme]

True. But, this set has a unique selection of pieces

[@Warmachine-fortnite]

@@Unbrickme I understand but the App-controlled vehicle also came with some intresting pieces such as the rubber pieces and some cool neon yellow pieces

[@rishablal2547]

Are there aftermarket shock upgrades?

[@erankuznits907]

Just bought it, can't wait to assemble it with my son. Do you know if there are any upgrade kits?

[@zacharypaulfestejo8425]

I got this on my birthday and spent 12 hours building it

[@robinhood184xD]

In a youtube comment I simply can’t explain how happy I am how this set turned out. Thanks Lego! It looks super much like the real thing, has (for a lego set) VERY good off-roading capabilities, as you said excellent suspension, very sturdy chassis, and then it’s an Audi! (my fav car brand after Porsche) And don’t get me started about the price, compare this to the 488 GTE, like what is lego doing with the prices? This is so much better! Great video as well of course! almost forgot it xD

[@Unbrickme]

I wouldn’t say it has “VERY good” off reading capabilities. The zetros is the only set that actually had “VERY good” off reading capabilities

[@robinhood184xD]

well true but if you compare it to other technic sets (not the zetros)…….

[@chrisanthony144]

great vid as always. i personally prefer a physical controller .

You can just connect a controller to your phone and use it for the lego set

[@LastChanceForRise]

I buy this one for my bday 🎉 please tell me you were in river with it. Can water do damage on battery or motors or is it real perfect lego rc car?

[@Unbrickme]

Yes I was in a real river. Motors are not waterproof, and neither is the hub. However, as long as you don’t completely submerge the car under water, I think you should be okay. I was

[@shihabaldinmahdi8514]

Yeah so for me this is the best Control+ set ever. Even better than the LIbherr crawler

I got this set few weeks ago, but it is still unopened! I’m thinking of making a video of it soon.

no.

[@jurgenkuklane1926]

Yeah no worries mistakes in Lego happen all the time hopefully it's just panels are wrong way not the stickers

[@brendan_creator]

btw i want to know i never ever bought a C+ technic set and i am considering between this or the huracan tecnica and heres the question does the motors last longer like does it last maybe 7 years with new batteries everytime its out of power or does it break easily like life span of 1 year?

[@Unbrickme]

C+ Large and Xl motors have been around since 2019. In those four years, they’ve never broken for me and I don’t expect they will. I think that they’re gonna last for a long time. Some of my power functions motors have been with me for well over a decade. I don’t think you should worry about that. Between this or the huracán, you should absolutely get the Audi! It’s so much fun to play with, where as the huracán is just a small display set

[@brendan_creator]

@@Unbrickme alright thanks unbrickme :)

[@roborbob2913]

Looks good. Not sure if it's because I'm left handed or that all car racing video games have the steering in the left, but that's how I prefer it.

[@Unbrickme]

Nice

[@roborbob2913]

@@Unbrickme I just checked to see what old RC cars like the Nikko Hilux I had as a kid in the 80s, and it steered on the right and acceleration forward and reverse on the left of the control unit. So it is made for the comfort of the majority who would be right handed.

[@Captain-Bricks]

Is it completely waterproof?

[@Unbrickme]

yes

[@L.O.O]

Let’s go !! I might buy it in august but the price point sure is high

[@Unbrickme]

expensive but not overpriced. maybe underpriced considering the price of the 4x4 xtreme off roader

I will buy it from certified Lego seller from ebay for 2 reasons: 1. I will get it a little bit sooner than it's released 2. I live in Serbia so Lego doesn't ship here nor have a normal lego Store.

Phone control is not bad

[@galizakeithd.2579]

Then its a good opportunity for your kids to start coding

[@brickotronic]

@Unbrickme It can be the best control in the world. The point is that Lego is a great physical toy, and it should get the kids away from the phone and console. Also, my kids don't even have a phone yet.

[@brickotronic]

@galizakeithd.2579 Well... I think this is a valid point if it would be like a Mindstorms or Boost set. But an RC car? That's meant to be fun for driving around and not for programming.
