I can’t believe how poor quality this RC is for the money, it was hardly extreme bashing. Imagine being that kid who waited ages to get a hobby grade RC car and it falls apart that easy. Saving up ages for replacement parts or upgrades, you would lose interest so quick in the hobby.

[@sethp0411]

Exactly companies will never think like that. Such a fun awesome hobby but many burdens with payment and trial and error.

[@Regan_Tatham]

thats me, bought a cheap hobby grade rc car, the batteries died, then bought more batteries, they never arrived, bought more batteries just for the car to break

[@shrek9840]

This is my arma granite…

[@cindyshields5753]

Agree

[@cindyshields5753]

But my first rc was a Stampede 2wd lasted 14 years raced it bashed it around some jumps and speed bumps never replaced a single part. Now I have me a slash and love it!

[@cliffjones9922]

Had my eyes on this for a while, but after seeing the problems and your confirmation of them, I think I'll just go with its older smaller brother or maybe the new 4s outcast

[@141Marios]

The older one MGT was a beast

[@phantom.btroupe5512]

SAAAAMMEEE

[@JanHarmSteenkamp]

cliff jones go for the new 4s outcast they are amazing I love mine 👍👍

[@FarmerFpv]

The new 4s Kraton is much better than the MT8. The MT10 is a little beast.

[@cliffjones9922]

@@JanHarmSteenkamp think I will

[@DozerBoyRc]

WOW... the big brother was a total let down durability wise. Hard to tell if 4s would be the better power option with the parts breaking all over the car on what looked like a very tame landing. Definitely a back to the drawing board item. Needs more BEEF!! Great fun vid Kev !!! Keep them coming!

[@rcalltypes8230]

Associated MT10 is good value. Hopefully RPM make parts for the MT8 for extreme bashing. Not being able to do 40mph without crashing, is unacceptable. Especially from Associated, we all know they can do so much better!

[@Gavs_rc_hobbies]

Interesting, those Reedy servos are usually pretty good. I have a couple in my cars and they work fine. Perhaps they had a servo that was too weak? 🤔

[@martinmang1]

I think it has something to do with the steering geometry because he immediately broke another servo that doesn’t normally break

[@IcecalGamer]

@@martinmang1 on point

[@pushtoexitracing5520]

Or over volted

[@brontecountryrc]

We had the reedy servos fail within the first 2 runs on the mt10

[@masjuggalo]

I was gonna say is it a cheap reedy like having a Wal-Mart mongoose bmx over one from a bike shop

[@yindyamarra]

I don’t even own a RC car, I just love these vids, the carnage, and the tumble wumbles

[@theblue_hatter4829]

I see you’re rebuilding the losi 5t cant wait for it to be back together I really can’t believe the car got completely destroyed like that. This time I hope it won’t explode into a thousand pieces

[@kevinwhite6176]

I feel like you need to lower the wheelie bar when doing speed runs so it might just bump onto the bar. Then again, with the way this thing seems to just spontaneously backflip out of control, it'd probably just pogo off the wheelie bar and launch itself steering-rack-first into the nearest tree.

[@benklock4477]

For the money kev i do believe that its “Epic” 6s with a rolling back-flip out the box is just what we need for $550(u.s) Arrma has exploding diffs and Traxxas is hard to customize/upgrade and both are way more expensive. Ive got both and defiantly need an MT8. Good servo and smaller tire’s it’ll be wicked.

[@kylejames3959]

Kev can you do a brushless build for the wltoys 144001

[@JPBashed]

Thing is Kev I watch many videos you do and you upgrade the crap out of your vehicles to make them durable. If you do the EXB mods it’s one of the most durable trucks out there.

[@IansRcFun]

Anyone else waiting for the day when Kev chucks a rc in the back of Landy and we get an instant "WASTED!"?

[@connorclark8541]

I've found associated rigs are generally built for precision and flow. Can expect junk electronics rtr and they're just designed to be driven with more care than an Xmaxx or kraton

[@Rex_Stuph]

Tomley managed to turn one into a canoe, didn't think it'd do well here.

[@TomleyRC]

I’ve yet to take it in the lake 😅

[@Rex_Stuph]

@@TomleyRC You know, when some goon knocks all the corners off an open wheeler, it's then a canoe :P

[@NerfCraft]

Hey Kev, next time you want to review this truck, do yourself a favor, save $50, and get the Redcat Kaiju instead. It's the same front and rear end, bolted onto a fully plastic chassis instead of an aluminum chassis. I bought the Kaiju EXT for $350 on sale, and it's actually been pretty fun. I think if you really want it to hold together, 4s is definitely safer for it, but I have put several 6s packs through it as well, jumped it, backflipped it, and landed poorly many times. I've had one caster block half way crack, and replacements were only $8, not too mad at it. Only major issues is it is way overgeared out of the box, electronics overheat like crazy, and it comes with belted tires, one of them exploded from a controlled wheelie. I don't think RPM has any parts for it, but Redcat does sell aluminum caster blocks and axle carriers that might be worth giving a go.

[@joshdunbar3818]

The redcat has the same chassis as the team associated m10. Those chassis came from a vkar bison

[@NerfCraft]

@@joshdunbar3818 Oh crap, you're right! The MT10 is just a straight copy of the 1st gen Kaiju. Never even noticed that, although probably because I saw Kev's review of the 10 before getting my Kaiju. Guess I can cross off the MT10 from my list of trucks to buy.

[@middlofmowhere1421]

Hey mate, I saw the Cison FG-VT9 on your bench. Great taste in engine's 🤓!

[@DjGlenJon]

Servo saver bro nothing to do with the servo..... same on the mt10 I blue glued mine shut

[@NeoIsrafil]

You know you can tighten it up without actually gluing it right? Lol. He needed that servo saver though... didn't save his poor little "high speed" economy servo.

[@rcaristocat4460]

Hey kev what editing software do you recommend for beginner youtubers. Was trying to use Imovie but I can't add music over my content.

[@Aroticas]

Wish every servo was as talkative as that one.

[@kylefletcher1002]

Servo was better with a broken arm 🤣🤣🤣 your lucky Kevin to have a cool group to have rc fun with man!!

[@wadevallbona5314]

This may be good just for an off-road in the mud or dirt but you are definitely not bashing this thing hardcore. It's sucks too, looked like a decent truck

[@michaelramirez4864]

I like the guy with the SMAX, he seems really mature and like a dad for the channel. Stemp and Kev are the kids lol

[@Charlie6969]

They might as well not bother including a servo if it needs replacing out of the box anyway.

[@TomleyRC]

Could be worse… could be mine! Oh hang on…. mine ended exactly the same 🤣

[@EliasE4]

Hi kev. I watch your videos all the time! You made me get a xmaxx!!!

[@ianthompson043]

I was hoping it would be as good as the MT10!

[@KevinTalbotTV]

same!!

[@carlhungus2521]

the old 1/8 RIVAL with rpm arms etc was wicked durable and it was so friggin fun even on the track. just a few rpm parts and some aluminum shock towers and that thing was un killable

[@joshdunbar3818]

The arrma 4s v2 lineups are going to sell out quickly. Almost the size of the 6s kraton but all plastic. Aluminum gears and aluminum shocks

[@rcary]

That wheel whizzing off had me 😂. Fun stuff. 👍

[@phantom.btroupe5512]

I had my eyes on the Mt8 but after seeing this, ill just looking at JLB Cheetahs lmaooo

[@coryjamesc]

that sucks to see, I have Raced Associated RC race cars for years and love them, sucks to see their RTR line isnt cutting the mustard compared to traxxas and arma

[@thejeepinrealtor5742]

Servo better when saver is tightened as tight as it’ll go.

[@Nlangkirby135]

If you can export this product to the UK… try using Redcat Kaiju a arms.

[@GazUK828]

Are you going to try and beef it up with RPM and so on to see if its any better? Its a shame its so crap as its almost the same price as the MT10 now

[@BeardRubEnjoyer]

Hey Kev, do you think it's true across most trucks that the 1/10 is more durable than the 1/8 due to weight? Would be interesting to hear your thoughts on that.

[@brentfabian174]

Its more on quality of materials used and the design. My maxx is heavier than my 2WD stampede but is far more durable

[@roberthallock7629]

Kevin the Evil RC Tire said, "See ya!"

[@sethp0411]

Can’t wait for a 5T video those parts look amazing

[@mikkellarsen4931]

Buy the mcd max ultimate. I want to see what it can take 👍💪

[@travallen5481]

You have to use Kaiju arms, they're not a brittle!

[@beef24v]

you did hit the side of that ramp pretty hard lol 15:30

[@Dakmaxx1218]

Are you going to get the ZD Racing MX 07? I really want to know how it holds up and how it stacks up against the X-Maxx.

[@Nlangkirby135]

RPM Performance parts made a arms for the rival mt8.

[@mlikyz]

Get a Redcat Kaiju 1/8th scale. And bash that thing. Mines pretty tough and is a beast!!

[@alantoms3263]

How much extra would it add to standard-fit radial ply - limited expansion - tyres and even a smaller pinion - lower speed. Is there a 'beginner's setting' and an 'unlock to speed doom' process? Al.

[@mikeharlow2908]

Too bad Kev! It looked pretty cool and the power was insane! The gearing seemed to hold up well!? Maybe a longer chassis to hold the front down and XMaxx tires for less ballooning? Love the vids as always! 100 plus in Oklahoma right now so not much RC-ing going on besides watching you on KZbin! Always epic though!

[@chrisleach4245]

I think if you add a spoiler to the front of it you might be able to go all out. I think the wind is getting under the front and acting like a wing.

[@rc-hobby-fun]

which car is better you with. Traxxas maxx v2 or Rival MT8. thx

[@jasonhowell9589]

You think associated would send you some better belted tires stronger steering servo and maybe some upgraded spindles knuckles

[@nox1010]

It's not, kaiju arms and upgrade parts fit from what I've heard and make it a lot more durable

[@imlurkn5291]

My man Kevin sets out to seek and destroy every new RC he gets then acts surprised when they break lmao. That's why I watch

[@theonemanopinion2764]

Associated have always had bad plastics in my opinion. I used to race an associated TC5R way back when, and it used to just break from the smallest of crashes. Switched out to an X ray branded model and 100x better

[@RCHobbyFarm]

Great video as always, I my top picks for bashing would be Tekno, Arrma and Traxxas!

[@naestrawe458]

I Have one of those...IT IS MADDDDD on 6S. i Broke my back drive shaft on my second 6S pack. But it IS Fun to drive....but better on 4S. Thank you for confirming i am NOT as a crappy driver as i thought.

[@jeremyflemingii929]

😲📢 TEAM ASSOCIATED usually makes some awsome stuff, like the RC-10. I use to be sponsored by them in the late 90's and boy how RC has came a long way since then... I had the fastest car on the tracks! But the servos came with the radio you used, you picked them out then...ohh well, the Traxxas Xmax 6S is a pretty solid truck if you drive it with some sense... but you D E S T R O Y those trucks you get in LOL!!! Jeremy USA Virginia

[@FeralRC]

JX Ecoboost servos strip out in no time. You already know that after you put on in your MT10!

[@brei.z]

Hey Kev! Another Great day at the track :) Did another Hydrodip the other day and came out pretty cool I think. Have a good one mate.

[@An_Lach019]

I love your content and I wanted to ask if you can test a RC car from maverick because I want to know if they are really durable for there prise.

[@edwardschraysr2836]

Nice video What about battery maintenance

[@Tony-sz8ql]

If you think this is bad, you should check out the corally dementor

[@bobkeul7682]

Wheels of wheely bar is from the JLB?

[@bobedibob3084]

kev you should try the tekno mt410 with max 8 2200kv combo and 17/44 gearing on 4s its this car but better

[@STORM_CUBER_BG]

Try it on 8s

[@opaqueemu4343]

'oh no did something come off? yea the wheel came off'

[@jasonhowell9589]

Could be the steering servo savers little sloppy I have seen that before

[@jasonhowell9589]

Nope!!!

ive been using those ecoboost servos in alot of my cars and race kits even. I think they are great for the money and fast enough for me. Im not one to spend $200 on a servo.

[@davidfalter4551]

Also i just bought mine and i need some help finding the right pinion gears and battery conversion.

[@BGBG-dq2rd]

3:40, what did it hit? An invisible wall? Lol.

[@thejeepinrealtor5742]

After replace about $100 in parts it’s good to go and a lot of fun. Huge jumps are going to need better chassis though. Steering rack sucks. All lower arms suck. Rear upper arms/turnbuckles suck. When it’s running good….it’s a lot of fun! I call it my “chunky” RC hahaha.

[@davecooper312]

Hi bud, is that steering servo good for the MT10? Do you have a link for them please. (I’m brand new to the hobby)

[@Moggmodels23]

I'm buying one myself but I'm worried about the shit servo what comes with this stock factor car we see if its better then the mt10

[@joshchatwin8569]

Can’t wait for that losi build so excited

[@kirillkapaln4536]

How much longer till Kev has his own line of RC?

[@BeanTheBarbarian]

I think it would be hilarious if you did your special way of putting parts on and right as you throw the part it cuts to another camera filming you putting the parts on

[@mojappa]

Surprising since their 1/8 buggy has been tough as nails (racing, not bashing). Kinda makes sense cause one’s designed to finish a race and the other to sell parts.

[@ianmangham4570]

This is a good buggy but only on 3 or 4s

[@RecklessRcuk]

Servo on the mt10 isn’t much better, I’ve been wanting one of these, glad you bought one so I don’t have to 🤣

how many rc are there?

[@polishguywithhardtospellna8227]

0:54 They've put deans plug on this one to rid us of the problematic warranty, so we loose it when we NEED to change it out of the box. Now how awesome is that!? Support Associated with this RC is amazing 😅😂🤣 Or maybe they knew this one ain't tough?

[@based_will]

I was thinking it was actually decent up till both the rear arms breaking at the same time 😂

[@MannyCo]

I'm a little disappointed that this one did no hold well at all. I have a converted MGT that does so much better.

[@craigengelman4534]

oh my gooood that was sooo funny ! wow what a pos ! id be so mad the r/c shop would need a new window . take that back ...the r/c would explode as it hit the window of the r/c shop . that would break in a padded cell lol!

[@klippschliefer4968]

i wish i could say its as durable as an E maxx, but since i own an E maxx, i really dont know where this myth of the E maxx durability had come from.
