BUYER BEWARE, some products like Mew4 M163 ESC has changed to not allow the use of 3S battery. Read product page description carefully. I see it from time to time these rebranded products that they downgrade their component soon after release.

Great video. Been thinking about adding a fan to the MEW4 M163 motor, but just trying to think how that would work, on the 16208 they are screwed on, but this doesn't seem achievable on the M163 as the motor grills are different. Perhaps I can slot it in the side next to the motor, maybe glue it in place. WHAT WOULD YOU DO?

[@customtoyrevolution]

Most cooling fan mounting screw can thread directly on to the heat sink. I've done it many times.

[@luvadealme]

Would the hyper go roll bar by MJX fit the MEW4 M163?

[@customtoyrevolution]

no

[@drwoodlawn]

Question for you, I got the hyper go h16bm, brushless, what should I up grade?

[@customtoyrevolution]

Nothing but if you want to go faster, swap out the 2845 4200kv motor with 5400kv or higher motor. Check out this for reference kzbin.info/www/bejne/bJO1koRjjbpghbM

Thank you, your channel is great!!!

Hello!) Is the 3s battery suitable for m163? How do you like the machine? doesn't break? strong? I want to buy one and ride in the snow🌨❄️

[@customtoyrevolution]

3S is fine for such cold temp, but absolutely need an active cooling fan, say above 60F /15C, that number is just my guess. It run perfectly fine, you won't even notice the slower speed compares to Hyper Go

[@jundu2310]

I have a mew4 m163 and cannot run 3s at all. The esc disallows it.

[@customtoyrevolution]

@@jundu2310 correct, see my review kzbin.info/www/bejne/rpbbhIWPp9icgqc

How do u add oil to the shocks? And what kind of oil?

[@customtoyrevolution]

There are plenty of videos on youtube that show you how to add oil. Shock oil comes in various weight depending on your driving style and terrain, that in itself can be another video. If you do care any of those, you can add any oil, even cooking oil, lol. I, myself, actual fill them with silicone gel to fit my style

[@LS6WS6]

Can always use lipo.

[@customtoyrevolution]

Stock battery is lipo
