Just want to say I enjoy your watching your videos! Thank you.

[@ReactionRC]

Great top 10 subbed!

[@SkunkCity_RC]

I would like to thank the camera crew and editors on this channel. making every shot look epic🤘🏽

[@Lost-outdoorsmen]

It was from the adds

[@TheRustyRagdoll]

The Yokomo RO-1 deserved a spot on this list. And like the RMX 2.5 it's super hard to find. I managed to scoop the last RTR in Europe for myself for Christmas. Such a great buggy, it's so weird that almost nobody has reviews up yet. I first found out about it through TomleyRC a few months back.

[@steven.h0629]

Love the dirt bike idea 👍😎✊

[@viNcENtttt]

WHERE IS THE MOJAVE 4s?!

[@UnixicanEditz]

Basically a Arrma senton but just a little bigger

[@etuskoe]

Why would it be on the list, it's not even HPI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@Krapper515]

​@@UnixicanEditzI own all 3 ARRMA SCTs, and what I can say: you are absolutely incorrect. It's not a Senton at all. More like a Mojave 6S with a plastic chassis. Handles like the 6S but better, same kinda "point and shoot" straight line stability, massive tires, massive shocks.. yeah it's configured similarly to the Senton but every single part is beefed up and pretty much straight off the Mojave 6s.

[@cayenne7857]

​@@UnixicanEditz yeah, it's not. 4s Mojave makes all SCTs obsolete outside of spec racing

[@all-is-Grass]

He already mentioned the 4s Outcast. Same center diff. So, by mentioning it, that basically covers all the new center diff 4s models. Kinda like how he mentioned the same revisions to the Traxxas stuff that follows the newer entry level Slash. He didn't do the Mojave 4s a disservice.

[@BiggestStone31]

Great vid. Missing the 4s Mojave and Corally Kagama

[@deezrcz]

I knew the pro moto mx would be number one. Now primal needs to make a gas bike with a Zenoah 23cc engine like the losi bike. That would be insanity. Real 2 stroke sounds coming from a rc bike.

[@user-gj5ws2yy4i]

Great video as usual, but what about Mojave 4s and the new Kraton 6sexb rtr? I got mine today it’s a beauty

[@Hellseeker1]

Just finished My TA B74.2 you guys shipped last week, got it on Wednesday. Boy she mighty sweet!

[@stephenpheonix6549]

Haha I knew the ProMoto would get No.1! It’s so worth it! Thanks to AMain for having the best parts support for the bike too! Would love to have seen the Mohave 4S in the mix! 😁👍🏼

[@jimpalazzolo6013]

Great list! Mine would have the Redcat Hauler and Big Rock 6s up higher on the list 😊

[@Prestigepiratex]

I was thinking the same!

[@fredfredrc]

Great video

[@franciscovazquez4589]

From 10 to 1 all these are 🔥🔥🔥

[@ianmangham4570]

TRX4 truck in red looks stunningly beautiful 😍

[@jagergerg9771]

That outcast video is sick

[@mnakash77]

missing the Mojave 4s and losi mini lmt

[@RC4us]

great video i cant believe how many of these new 2023 bashers the channels been able to get review test an just have fun

[@cduncan5864]

does the IFS (independent front suspension) work on trx4 trucks? thanks for the video!

[@Casitascrawlers]

I love the Losi it’s just Calling my name but the Mojave 4s is also calling 😉👍

[@jaymitchrc]

I'm wondering where the team corally kagama is and also the Arrma 8s kraton/Outcast exb.

[@mindyourbeezness]

the beastly mojave 4s not being on here is ridiculous. it is the strongest most reliable and fastest controlling rc car released this year.

[@Blimpus]

I can't believe the Gorgon didn't make the list !

[@PigglyWigglyDeluxe]

I can. It stinks

[@WhiteTrashtastic-sr1qe]

It definitely is the most underrated rc of 2023.

[@woutervanwijk4369]

​​@@WhiteTrashtastic-sr1qe especially at its price point. Even if you upgrade it to fully brushless it's cheaper than some 4x4's that drive worse.

[@WhiteTrashtastic-sr1qe]

@@woutervanwijk4369 I threw in an old castle 4600kv motor with a hobbywing 80amp and a flysky receiver and it runs great on 3s. It keeps up with my Big Rock just fine.

[@woutervanwijk4369]

As long as you reinforce the body

[@kubeanie18]

still love my losi tenacity tt pro.

[@ianmangham4570]

269 fot the BEAUTIFUL QUALITY in the slash is still a forever beautiful car especially for a newbie wanting a full hobbygrade beast 🤠🤟🙏

[@PigglyWigglyDeluxe]

Big Rock 6S is wayyyyyy overpriced considering the v2 K6 EXB is the same price

[@UnixicanEditz]

True

[@Krapper515]

Kraton 6S EXB should have been on the list instead. And the Mojave 4S and Gorgon definitely should have made the list.

[@robertshelton2605]

Wanna see someone install a sound system for the Losi Dirt bike. Icing on the cake!

[@Matthew_Does_To_Many_Things]

I wish traxxas would add clipless body systems onto all or most of there nitro models! They need to do a refresh onto the nitro’s because they have been the same for years!

[@thomaswalton9089]

I think list needs to be uped to top 15-20 since so many good cars have been coming out lately!

[@GeorgeCostGolf]

Hey, can you make a video about the 10 largest RC cars and how much they cost?

[@RC4X4]

The ProMoto is bar the best thing to be released in 2023. I couldn't resist and bouth one to run and several for dispaly. The MST drift is on my list.

[@cayenne7857]

Big Rock is a lightly modded Fireteam with a heavy, harder to self-right body. Mojave 4s made all SCTs obsolete outside of competitive racing.

[@mastermind3457]

Make a review video on traxxas rustler 4x4 Ultimate

[@coyoterc8711]

Can y’all do arrma mojave 4s review please 🙌 one of the best rc trucks out right now. 🤟

[@fromthebackofmymind]

Top 10 list. Not a review. Based on sales. So, the Mojave may be the hero under the radar.

[@davidzimmerman2478]

Hosim Power, Hosim Speed, Hosim Tough, Hosim Fun !!!

[@RandomPerson-vs2yh]

so.. i looked up best remote control cars to buy for my 3yo brother and this video is NOT what I expected to find. You're telling me adults came out with the professional adult version of the toy to enjoy it themselves? that's so cool! I kept having to remind myself these cars are not real, nor human sized.

[@Suborikillu]

Pro my rc car didn't work after 1 day 😢 i put the batterys in and did i have to put batterys in the rc car

[@FrankvdBerg]

Oehh i think the Kagama should be in here as well.

[@johnwayne666]

Happy Holidays everyone.....✌🏼🤠

[@DEEZEL_gaming]

why is the traxxas sledge not in the video?

[@OCTEXRC]

Where's the Mojave 4s? 👀

[@SG-wj2qj]

Idk, I’d take that Redcat trailer truck of the list. It’s cool as a novelty but nothing really more past that. And I’m pretty cheesed with the BigRock 6s. amazing chassis but that body is weak AF. First bash and I got replace the body for like $90. Didn’t even really abuse it… a few rollovers Would have liked to see the Mojave 4s on the list. Outcast is great but it’s an old model with a refresh - rather than the Mojave as a fresh release. And the Losi Mini-LMT

[@Bziiit.]

How about the Mojave 4S rather than the outcast 4S v2 ?! I feel like it deserved to be on that list.

[@AMain_Hobbies]

Good point, that was a tough choice. The new Mojave looks like an awesome basher but the main reason we didn't pick it is because it's $50 more expensive than the Outcast and Kraton trucks. -Brett

[@Ljloves_rc]

I got the outcast 4s v2/v3 for my birthday and it kept flipping over and doing wheelies but I broke it yesterday😢

[@endosrc]

top 10 race kits of the year next?

[@michielpoortvliet3003]

Mojave 4S should at least in the top 3.

[@politie_jip112]

arrma grom should be on the list

[@all-is-Grass]

Kyosho KBL10L deserves a spot.

[@rigoarredondo1986]

Xmaxx number 1

[@Mictian1980]

Is Traxxas gonna do a 1/6th crawler?

[@just.jose.youtube]

"Best" really can have a lot of different meanings, so there's that. Would have liked to see a list with more varied and "exotic"/unique RCs, from less known, no mainstream brands. It gets tiring watching content on RC bashers... :p

[@AnthonyELombardi]

I still like my axial yeti kit

[@BangForYourBuckRc]

No Mojave???☹️ Great list just the same!

[@massmike11]

Personally I would like associated to rerelease the TC3 and not some neutered RTR. Real touring cars seem to be a missing segment, the only thing you can really find are drift cars or wimpy RTR.

[@userTJ39780]

I'm set with my 3S Arrma Granite.....

[@woutervanwijk4369]

I get that the BRCC 6S is on the list specs wise. However it's flawed due to its faulty ESC that makes it nose dive with jumps. Totally unacceptable for a $700 truck. And to solve that problem Arrma expects customers to buy a program card with only a 20% discount. Actually Arrma should be disqualified from this list completely untill they understand how wrong they are.

[@AMain_Hobbies]

What's wrong with the ESC? -Brett

[@Havingoneofthosedays-]

@@AMain_Hobbies The esc is malfunctioning from factory. It hits the drag brake causing it to nose dive and destroy the body. KZbinrs around the world have spotted it. Earlmoorehead, DoRc, Aussie rc playground. Horizon is charging customers to buy a program card. Download software on a computer if you have one, then reprogram esc. 5 of us will pass on this truck and the Kraton till second batch. Still want one, but not gonna this year. But I’m sure you knew that. It is wrong and everyone should know before they buy. They / you all that distribute them, should help out as well. IMO
