This is one of the Best On Road RC Cars you can get for the money. Kevin Talbot did a review and missed one vital issue, which in my opinion lead to a little bit of an unfair review.

​​​@@TomleyRC running over stuff is fine in itself (his money, also his content style is durability and viral video style carnage of rc's, what brings his viewers), but as a point to be made yet with an inacurrate reviewing, would see as less than good. i.e. what u said when people mistake quality and price, which are 2 seperate things (kyosho miniz or fms is cheap or cheap price, but still quality). Like when people buy $700 rc and when something goes wrong... they say its normal (ofc ppl will want to fix $700 rcs), but to say junk when its cheaper price and it breaks just as often (or even less often!), a double standard.

True, but I've read bad reviews on the MJX 14301 where some doofus didn't read the manual (most of us don't) and went an installed the gyro upside down because he didn't know you could reverse it digitally. And in the MJX manual, they TOLD you how to reverse the gyro. People don't read things. I've seen bad reviews for the awesome Felony saying "der, um, duuuh, da car don't go straight in reverse, I'm a big fat idiot" Not understanding the fact that no car with a gyro goes straight when reversing. People are idiots, and even when you print out the helpful bits on instructions, 9 out of 10 customers won't read them. People are dumb, dumb as hell.

Thanks for sticking up for this amazing RC.. I was really disappointed in Kev doing that stupid video, he was a total Kevin.! I absolutely loved mine from day one, it took 5 minutes to snip a bit of material from the rear diffuser & then you can go flat out on 3S without any problems.! It's tyres are awesome too.!! I use them on my other 1/10 road cars now, they're especially good in the wet.! I'd avoid using them on salted roads because the springs, screws & driveshafts will rust quite badly.!.. Or at least rinse it off afterwards.! This car is sooooo smooth, agile, quick off the mark & fast as f***.!!! I honestly can't recommend them highly enough.! I've got a gorgeous Killerbody Nissan R-34 Skyline body in white on mine & it's just amazing.! That happened to my input shaft too, a lack of threadlock... Easy fix.!

I don’t think Talbot is bad for RC at all! He may break everything he gets, but he almost always repairs it, and most of the time, does it on video. If you are a basher or looking to get into it, then you have to know that you are going to break stuff and have to figure out how to fix it. What I like is that Talbot shows the limits of each vehicle. He also gives us an idea of what types of landings and bashing is most harmful to the vehicles.

Been toying with idea of getting back into RC for a while. Last RC was a panda stocker and a futaba attack sr transmitter. If this comes with drift wheels, gyro and is 3s capable it might be what I have been looking for. How easy are parts to get and would it accept another body? I have vague memories of 190mm wide and 200mm wide bodies on 1:10th stuff before

I personally wish you could buy all the rtr kits and build them your self but have the prepainted bodys and radio gear in the box, you could loctite and grease as you built them up and learn a bit as you go along. Presumably this would make the kits a bit cheaper and perhaps a better end result depending on engineering skill. (yes ive built the tamiyas in the past but they dont have ball races included on the whole, are painfully slow, and painting and stickering some rally car with livery arrggh)😅

You do get these problems with dealing with Chinese companies. The company I worked for imported HSP cars which is where this car comes from, we had a batch of nitro trucks and 1 in 4 of them they had fitted the diffs in the wrong way round, so the trucks would only run backwards. It took many emails and a video to get them to understand the problem. At least being the importers we could test every one and rebuild them correctly. And a batch of large scale petrol cars from another company that would unbind the receiver when you started the engine. It took weeks to convince the factory there was a problem, then we had to open each one and swap out the receivers with new ones. I would hope that the new cars you've bought were from the first batch and have been sitting on a shop shelf. Once the problem was discovered I should expect CML to open them up and test that the gyros are set correctly before sending out to the shops, so all models sold after you told them should have been checked and corrected as the cost in time and money is less than the cost of dealing with the customer complaints and telling shops and customers how to fix it.

I have only seen the clip where he wrecks it, but I think you're right here. His video made this thing look bad. I don't have it, but every video I see you make with these always makes me wanna buy one, but I'm probably sticking to the 1:76-1:16 scale drift cars with gyros for now. Banggood specials

I hated that video of Kev's. As you said though, carnage and destruction are his gimmick. Also, did you run foams on your previous 3s speed runs, cause in my experience foams are usually a bit smaller in diameter than standard rubber tyres, even before trueing. That could explain the difference in top speed. Top video though, and a bit of positivity for what seems to be a great, budget "street basher". Keep up the good work, cause I've bought 2 budget rc's (Hyper Go ute, and MJX Rock Van) after seeing your videos on them, and they're both just as much fun as you said.

Some people may remember the days in the hobby when RTR was a dirty word!! Granted the offerings back then were all brushed and entry level, to get youngsters into the hobby. Nowadays there's so much RTR to choose from, and kits are destined for the traditional hobbyist model builders who have the time to build them to their satisfaction. Also, gyros are good for beginners in RC, but you shouldn't rely on them and not improve your driving skills before upgrading to faster motors and more powerful ESC's.

I am not a fan of KT, he does good videos and of course people love him.. For me I got over the appeal of watching someone treat RC cars terribly and then making a claim that the RC car must be poor because it doesn't survive a 40mph jump 40 feet in the air at a concrete skate park.. However he does have a point, the car should not be like that out of the box and as it is now with the gyro reversed it will be impossible to drive,. As a side note I kept hearing him slagging off the UK and his move to the Isle of Mann which is really just a tax avoidance exercise, if the UK is so bad he can go and go riddance, not interested in all that nonsense, just want to enjoy and learn a bit about this hobby we all love. Good to see you putting it all right in this video. 😁

That video where Kevin was driving his full sized car over these RC's was the exact moment I stopped watching him. So stupid to do that rather than fix it and he should know better. I'm probably a bit older than his average viewer and am not impressed! Thanks for clearing this up Phil. Top work 👍👍
