Don't buy this one

[@fiatfixie4344]

With upgraded electronics, suspension, chassis, wheels, body, drivetrain and hardware, this thing will be almost mint. 👌

Difference between toy grade & Hobby grade is immense! Ah the days of Tamiya 'auto toe in/out'!😳🤪🤷‍♂️😂😂😂

[@DocWolph]

And comparing Toy Grade to Competition Grade is like comparing a Paper airplane to the SR-71.

[@Wreenz]

Make it a series... 40 dollars for a two wheel drive buggy was not enough, but how much before you get a decent experience? How much before you get a great experience and how much is maybe over the top? Could make a fun series that might help some with no experience to the Hobby.

[@daylightdies7194]

Some poor child will receive this as a (gift)

[@Turbowagon]

Glad I got the stinger buggy for $50 when it was on sale lol. I should add, thanks to you lol. Appreciate the video on it

[@davidpigg3942]

That just makes the Jegs Stinger look even better. LOL

[@kyleteal5888]

We got our youngest son this exact car to match our Tyco Heads-up buggy the one everyone wants, and the red New Bright F150. This is a great match to old school toy grade rc cars. But then again we run both hobby grade and toy grade it's fun as a family.

[@IowaBudgetRCBashers]

I thought about getting one of these for Grayson to learn how to modify. A cheap surpass brushless system and a servo would really wake it up, but at that amount you can buy a rising fighter from Tamiya and have a legit buggy

[@alfalso434]

For about $60.00 more (give or take a few bucks) you can pick up a Tamiya Grass Hopper or a hornet. They are a lot of fun and can replace parts if they break.

[@ExocagedRC]

Oh yeah I’ve always wanted a grasshopper but never had one

[@alfalso434]

My brother had one way back when. Lol. They are an easy build. Kinda falls into the " functional model" but upgradeable. Oh and you get to put some RC " history" on e shelf. Lol. Side note.... I think the Hornet has a couple different features.

[@thegreattreon0177]

This will be good for kids under 8 to help develop their hand eye coordination

[@Jeepy84]

I would say you are just under the threshold of decent bashing buggy toy at that price. I got a $70 18th scale awd one a few years back that is actually fun, like a mini Exo Terra. Proportional steering and throttle. I'm guessing 60 is the lowest you'll find any hobby level components in what may appear to be a toy otherwise.

[@francismoran1230]

Brand-spanking New to this hobby, (only just noticed this toy @ WW the other day [April 2024] & almost bought one), and, after a quick research learned about toy-grade vs. hobby-grade and the benefit of “proportional steering.” Nonetheless, this toy IMO, is a fun, affordable, entry-level RC car. 🏎 😎

[@TheMightyPooh420]

Got one used for $20 just as a project. The rear skid plate is the reason the rear is locked in place. The springs on the shocks are rock hard front and back. Glad I did not spend 40

[@donniemarks94]

It’s a 1/8 so it’s good for a hobbywing max8 system lol

[@joesant1943]

Could be a fun project lol

[@maryl.johnson4401]

I got one on mark down. I love it. If you want big air,use a taller ramp and go up backwards. It landed on all four like a cat, so I kept going backwards. Fast in reverse Hey it's cheap fun.

[@erazco6568]

I just bought this RC it’s cost efficient and doesn’t brake the bank and does what I expect it to do I can give to shits if anybody wants to go spend hundreds on their toy that’s gonna collect dust

For $49.99 you can get a awesome fast mini 4x4 basher. The Laegendary 9145. Normally they have the worst prices I'd never reccomend, but the truck is actually fun and $49.99 and now you can get replacement axles for $7 all on Amazon. I reccomend getting extra front and rear axles when you get the truck so you're prepared. Lots of fun tho

[@ChiefRickyRC]

And it takes 3s good

[@ExpensivewheelbarrowRC]

I got this for Christmas 😂 I’m starting to put spare parts I have laying around on it to see if it gets any better. Oil filled shocks on the front and some hex adapter for some larger tires for now 😂 funny to see it on your channel

[@ExocagedRC]

Yeah it’s lacking so much.

[@TABRO284]

The worst thing about toy grade is always the steering.

[@TX_TP]

I just got started with the rc community and i think these rc cars are good for beginners, but i have this and im slowly upgrading it, i like the oldschool style alot

[@RomeoLualhati]

I have a one toycar like and no remote controller im kindly asking where to buy the remote controller

[@booboomarshburn1577]

I’m glad someone legit did a review on this thing. It needs much improvement,too much. I like upgrading cheap stuff that has potential like the blaze buggy but this is a dead horse.

[@mikebird8290]

GOOD MORNING JOE THANKS FOR YOUR HONESTY SIR. TAKE CARE SIR 🇬🇧🇺🇲🕊️✌🏼🤟🏼

[@dirtrider88]

you should bring that to a hobby shop that doesnt know you and tell them you need a bulkhead for it or something and make a video out of it.

[@chrismoorhead11]

Having a hard time finding a replacement front Axel and motor for one I bought my son he broke the front Axel

[@ryurc3033]

My son ended up with one of these, I might put it on a bandit chassis just to be cheeky

[@BeardRubEnjoyer]

I actually think this looks great for an even younger kid. Like 4-6. Too slow to hurt itself but looks decent.

[@robertestrada912]

I’m shocked it made it up the jump on your track!!! Happy RC’ing Y’all!!! Great video!!!

Gonna buy an 11v battery , just got one for my son . Should give it a kick for him to use in our backyard

[@offroad1911]

The body is cool lookin so maybe a different chassis could be adapted to it.

I thought it was a rovan 😂 for 40 bucks better than any jada toys of the same price why not try to upgrade that thing 😂

Try to put a actual small 2S pack in there and see what it will do

no real gains, it's already 2s. I don't have a small 3s myself but even that would just be waiting for smoke

when i was 8 rc was new to the world . 1982 i had wired to car from ames there was no rc stores . only place i new of was at a gun store and they had the super champ $150 for a roller . it was all most $400 for everything to drive one !

Poor children who get this as a present! It doesn't even need Li-Ions. Ni-Mh would make it much safer to handle for beginners and also it would reach that miniscule speed.

For $40 🤷🏼‍♂️ I have a 6 and 8 year old. If they weren’t spoiled by mine ha they would enjoy this. It can actually be driven outside ha. The RC’s I got for Christmas at that age in the late 90’s were reverse to steer ones lol. Something like a tamiya was WAY out of reach for my fam.
