I have the original MN99S, seriously under powered. My nephew melted the transmission running in the tall grass. I upgraded to the single speed metal one, and it is really noisy. But, at least it runs again. To shed weight, I installed the half cab roof. And I like the new bead-lock tires. They are more scale and look less toyish. Great review, and I love your indoor course! Liked and subscribed! Cheers!

Thank you, I agree the old one is underpowered. I change out the battery and electronics on the old version to a 2S Lipo (50C) and it made a big difference in performance but it runs HOT! The new one does have a larger motor, but the electronics are the same. I am liking the new tires, they preform better and look better. I have the metal gear box, I have yet to install or make a video on that. Coming soon! I hope to figure out how to make it quieter.

You could easily modify a small folding plate to cover the on and off switch

there was even an easier fix in the next video of the series. There is cover on the switch that extends the lever. Just remove the cover and you are good to go.

I just ordered the new version before i saw your video. I hope the metal links and shocks i also ordered will fit. Nice review 👍🏻

@BillsWorkbench 5 ай бұрын

Hope you enjoy it! The metal suspension links are different between the version. But the new version plastic ones are just fine, they don’t have the slop the old version had. The Shocks should work out just fine.

The turning radius is increased if you relocate the steering arm to the final hole on the steering servo horn.

@BillsWorkbench Ай бұрын

Correct, but on the other hand if you are getting full turn on each side after moving it down you get more "control" at the transmitter end.

I own 15 MN models and if you hold the light button down for 3to5 seconds then it converts the turn signals into hazard lights. I cannot stand turn signals on crawlers and alot of people are not aware of this MN’s light function. I am assuming this one does also. I hope this helps.

@BillsWorkbench 3 ай бұрын

That’s a great tip! I will need to give that a try.

@deanmachinerc 3 ай бұрын

@ Im hoping MN did this trick with your MN99s as I have the Range Rover MN168 it also has this led feature. I notice this 99s has the same chassis as the 168. Now the 168 has a seperate receiver from the esc, it’s the first MN model they have ever done this with. They typically have a 2in1 combo in all their models besides the 168. I hope they did it with this model but with it not being as expensive as the 168 then I doubt it. The reason im asking is they have all the leds wired into a specific large white plug that plugs into the separate receiver that I mentioned making it far easier to just change out the esc and keep all the stock leds working but I have to use the stock transmitter to do this but thats not bad. Let me know if you find this info out if you have the time? and I also subbed to you as I always support any fellow RC channels! RC on friend!

The switch being low to the ground also happened to me in the MN82, I was crossing over a tree root over and it shut off. I thought I blew up the motor or receiver or something but it luckily it was just that. Other than that, so I think there are 4 version of this thing now, the earliest non-porpotional with 130 motor, the non-propotional one with 260 motor, the propotional with 260 motor and now propotional with 280 motor..

@BillsWorkbench 6 ай бұрын

You are correct. I think of all the versions this is the first big redesign. The other versions were just building on the same platform. This one has an entirely new frame, suspension, drive train, and the servo on the axel is a big one too. Luckily the switch is an easy fix.

@BillsWorkbench 6 ай бұрын

@@yGustaSadzinn It already has a larger motor, not quite the 370. The gearbox and mount is different as well as the location of the drive shafts. Based on that I would say no. You would want to wait for their new versions of 2 speed transmissions. I have noticed that by changing out the battery to a LiPo 50c pack I got a bunch more low end power, but the top speed did not change.
