Run, jump, break, fix (repeat?) ... Here's the new and upgraded HBX 12815 Protector 1/12 4WD Sand Rail Buggy/Truck. Seems like every time I try to get a few jumps out of my tiny little ramp ... it ends with a broken part. No matter the brand. HBX, WLToys, Traxxas, Tamiya, Kyosho. Always thought that grass would soften up the impact of my bad landings, but I am beginning to think that the uneven lawn in the country side demands more of the car than the running conditions back in the City.
The new yellow/orange HBX 12815 Protector 4WD 1/12 Sand Rail Buggy/Sand Truck was kindly provided by Haiboxing, free for review and tests. Check out the (non-affiliate!) links to the products and prices here on Amazon (links where provided by Haiboxing. I receive NO money/pay/commission):

Compared to the standard version (also featured in this video) the new version includes a new body design, oil filled shocks, metal wheel axles and outdrives and an extra set of batteries. Still under $100 and with the same other features of the standard edition: 4 x LED lights, 2.4G, full time 4x4, double wishbone suspension, metal differentials and full ball bearings.
As far as I know the first edition of the HBX Protector was released in 2018, and the new one in the middle of 2019. At the day of publishing this video, both editions sell on Amazon at just below $100. Remarkable, since the new edition comes with a lot more value for the money.
The HBX Protector is officially specified to a top speed of 38 kph, which I doubt it will do, based on past experiences with this particular chassis, gear ratio and motor size. But time will tell in the upcoming speed test.
In the meantime check out some previous speed tests and other videos with the HBX Dune Thunder and HBX Survivor MT, which just as the Protector, are based on the HBX Survivor chassis. Definitely one of my favorite chassis' from HBX so far, in terms of durability and allround handling.
