VKAR BISON V2 EXTREME BASHING & DURABILITY TEST - Did it survive?

[@dustinfowler7868]

Whoever is running that bison, nice skills. making that thing look good,at least for the first few minutes. I like it.

[@CCxRC]

+Dustin Fowler Ha! Thanks. Some of the crashes we intentional and others were actually from the beginning when I was learning the right speeds and jumps. It handles really well once you get a feel for it

[@RCTanksTrucks247]

Excellent man! They are such a great car. Stella video by the way. Always enjoy your style.

[@CCxRC]

Thanks Steve! Run videos are my favorite to make. It really is a killer RC car. I did end up taking my Panasonic out to film and used my iPhone. So I was running 2 cameras and the car! Lol.

[@humblerc841]

good throttle control. you really gave it to that thing, and it took it. i'm impressed.

[@CCxRC]

Thanks! Throttle control is a bit trickier when that hand is also holding a selfie stick with phone on it. lol Probably added to my crash roll at the end.

[@robertcole8931]

heyyyyyy....... this is by far the BEST DAM TRUGGY THAT I HAVE SEEN DOING THESE STUNTS AND NOT BREAK ONE PART.

[@CCxRC]

It is pretty crazy that it made it through that beating without any breaks!

[@robertcole8931]

Yeah congrats on that one its a BEAST.But a bit too pricey from some area's of the globe .Worth looking into though thanks for a great vid.

[@theRCelement]

Nice edit buddy! I am pretty impressed with the beating it took. Gearbest is sending me one out for review as well. I was checking it out on the website thinking it would be a junky RC, but after looking at the pics and specs I was pretty impressed. Nice bash bro!

[@CCxRC]

Thanks! I'm very impressed with it. I broke it doing double backflips today, but it should be an easy enough repair. The way the shocks are bolted on is a bit weird and the long bolt makes it easy to bend and snap. Going with a thicker bolt on the repair. Look at the Helion Select Four 10tr...it is the same basic roller but re-branded. That means parts are available from Hobbytown.

[@2RCPRODUCTIONS]

Dude your videos are ridiculous!!!!! I was grinning ear to ear watching that thing flip with insane control and 0 breakage very impressive!!! Love the music as well!!

[@CCxRC]

Thanks Rich.."When I see you smile, I can face the world". lol This truggy is very impressive - especially considering the price. This is stock with the included 3s LiPo battery.

[@2RCPRODUCTIONS]

CCxRC Ahhhh Alias...... Nice touch brother!! Very impressed with that rig for sure!!

[@CCxRC]

me too! Charging it up for the big jumps tomorrow. :) It's got to have a breaking point...and I am good at finding those. lol

[@2RCPRODUCTIONS]

CCxRC​ Yes you are!! The ultimate durability tester you are..........( In aYoda voice) ha-ha!

[@2krcbackroads421]

Killer vid Man!! Tough as nails that rig...

[@CCxRC]

Thanks man! I had so much fun shooting it on my lunch break...of course I didn't have time to eat...but it was worth it. :)

[@2krcbackroads421]

CCxRC Eating is overrated...ha ha ha. RC is where it's at! Really cool rig Man. All the best!

[@Clementine465]

That's amazing how tough it is in the video. If I so much as fart near my racing bison, something new will break. I haven't gotten through a full battery pack without a breakage of some kind in about 2 months. And I'm only driving this thing in my driveway and around the front yard. It's a standing joke with my wife "hey Hun I'm going to go drive my rc" and her response "ok see you soon" cuz she knows I'll be back in 5 minutes looking for replacement parts. I drive this thing like it's made of wet paper and still I have gone through about $100 in parts and maintain a constant 5 minutes of driving to 60 minutes of repair time, if I'm lucky. The other day I got through a full pack without breaking something new and rainbows started bursting in the clear blue sky. They lasted about 30 seconds when I put a new pack in, drove away and immediately a shock mounting screw broke in half when turning at about 5 mph. This truggy is a complete joy to drive when it's working, and that's why it's such a tease. But every part on here that needs to be tough or reinforced is made of the cheapest materials available. This is particularly true for the screws - and let me tell you the factory didn't do you any favors there either. Make sure you have your drill bits ready. My suggestion is definitely to buy this truggy if you want to learn how to repair and reinforce cheaply made hunks of garbage. Couldn't be more unhappy and it almost killed my rc hobby before I ever really got started. Hopefully the next one I buy will be significantly less discouraging.

[@CCxRC]

David sorry it's been such a headache for you. I just broke the chassis on mine after a serious thrashing. Gonna be a big tear down to replace it.

[@DirelectRC1]

took it like a champ! great vid and looking forward to seeing more of this rig flying around lol

[@CCxRC]

Haha. More are coming. It is probably my 2nd favorite in my basher collection now...just behind the X-maxx. Charging the battery for the big jumps tomorrow. lol

[@roynelson7613]

two thumbs up brother that was a kick ass video man one of the best keep all that cool shit coming bro you know how to drive that's for sure

[@CCxRC]

Thanks Roy! I was having a blast driving this...which made filming hard. lol.

[@roynelson7613]

CCxRC oh I know you was having a blast bro and I tell you what you got some damn good footage bro damn good everybody can see that it was awesome man this was one of the best videos I have seen in a really long time

[@midliferc1165]

Yuuuuuuuuuup!!!! Like a champ man!!!! That thing took CCxRC abuse like a champ!!! Nice work Tony!

[@CCxRC]

Haha! That's how we roll...or fly!

[@midliferc1165]

Heavy nose dive as you predicted and the lights still work!

[@BasBoyRC]

They seem to have made a well balanced car. The suspension looked like it was soaking up the landings very well.

[@CCxRC]

They sure did. It looked great when I unboxed it, but I wasn't going to get too excited until I saw it on the trails. For the price, it outmatches almost everything I've seen.

[@what1864]

love the video , my bison though would ov needed many repairs during that bashing , have not put it through near what you did and have had to replace many parts including the chassis , front bushings and pins one front a-arm, now need to replace spur gear for second time , but it is fun to run ....

[@CCxRC]

Yeah man. It was "hard", but for the most part it carried the impact through and didn't cause any crazy breaks. The chassis really seems to crack when you land inverted and catch the tail fin. The force definitely stresses the chassis. Cracked mine on some smaller jumps where I was going for distance. I bought the metal chassis brace to install when I stop and fix it

[@ikromimansor88]

Hi.. I just ordered this Bison and now become worried about it. Just reading yours. Is there any metal gear spur? How bout the parts.. Easily available online? Thanks

[@rcoverdose]

A lot to learn from you my bro.Love the RC.Cheers.

[@CCxRC]

I'm here to help. Let me know.

[@rcoverdose]

CCxRC 👍👊

[@talltiger2790]

Hey, I wouldn't expect to see you here! lol

[@RCCrawlerWorkbench]

Super cool edit. Killer bashing . We need to get together out there now that i have a basher too. Thumbs-up my friend.

[@CCxRC]

Thanks Buddy! This was a ton of fun to edit

[@satorrotas]

I think that the test is very conclusive, lol, really a very good rc !! Excellent video !!

[@CCxRC]

+sator rotas haha conclusive indeed.

[@flashhobbies]

Awesome video! Held up pretty well. Bike trails and skateparks are hard on rcs.

[@CCxRC]

It sure did. I've broke my X-maxx 2x here, the Grave digger a couple more and the Yeti about 5x. Lol.

[@RcNickster709]

WOW no kidding that is a pretty durable car that's for sure. It wasn't like you were taking it easy on it either. Very cool looking almost E-revo(ish). Cool video Tony. Thanks for sharing. Thumbs up from me too.. :P

[@CCxRC]

+RcNickster I was trying to destroy it. 😏 it seemed to like it. Lol

[@RCTeamAustria]

wow! seems to be really durable! thanks for sharing!

[@CCxRC]

I was shocked on a couple of the landings. I expected a broken arm or cvd on a couple hits.

[@theimacman]

WOW! Awesome video, bud! I just released a jumping video of this car too, but yours puts mine to shame! hahaha

[@CCxRC]

Everyone likes different kinds of videos. I get complaints about music and cutting the video because they want to see non-stop driving. Each has their place in this wonderful KZbin Universe.

[@theimacman]

Haha true, and there's always a KZbin troll and hater for every kind of video as well. lol

[@Racer-X-090]

Man that looks like fun. Now you need to go for the double back flip :)

[@CCxRC]

Most fun RCing I've had in months! This is what I've been wanting to do at these trails since the beginning, but haven't had the right car to do it. I brought it with me again today and hope to get out at lunch to bash it again.

[@needlejuse1113]

Still wickid awesome video!

[@juantabby4787]

Playground is awesome

[@ricowswave1324]

Awesome skills there tony😁

[@sviridovrus]

Понравился монтаж видео, спасибо на хорошее настроение! Вам лайк!

[@acesonthego2287]

Nice driving, good video

[@itsjustpaul4499]

I just got the yeti and now I think I should have got the bison bc of this video 😂😂

[@CCxRC]

lol. The Yeti is a cool truck as well. Glad you liked the video though. :)

[@FrankygoestoHobbywood]

wow... what an awesome durability test..! :-D

[@CCxRC]

Thanks! If I'm sent something to review...I'm going to put it through its paces to make sure I can feel confident about how I'm going to review it.

[@declanthiele]

wow... gearbest really upped their game...

[@CCxRC]

+RC Media Network By Captain Thiele they sure have. There are a few trucks that I'm interested in and a lot of drones and planes. Their drones seem to really cover more name brand offerings.

[@declanthiele]

CCxRC sounds interesting...

[@davmanlop333]

Mine had one crash and the pin snapped in the front wheel arm. Not happy

[@jonash.8082]

Do u think the BL combo is nice in my e-revo?

[@familyurias1938]

right on thanks man

[@RCVHX22]

Back flip💀back flip💀back flip💀 back flip💀Looks beast bro pretty durable car Freaking Awesome!! Have fun ✌ツ👍

[@CCxRC]

+RC VHX 22 thanks man! It wanted to flip...so I let it! Mainly because I can't get my other cars to flip and break them trying to. Haha

[@guidelineuk]

easy to find part's ???

[@CCxRC]

+guidelineuk in us it is the same as Helion Four 10TR parts. But pets are available online

[@domly5548]

Awesome vid!

[@familyurias1938]

will the bison go under 300 dollars again?

[@CCxRC]

I don't know. You can get it for about $305 if you use the discount I asked them for. Use the link bit.ly/VKAR_BISON and during checkout put in this coupon code: CCxRC This will get you 10% off the non-sale price

[@bosstan4928]

Where can I get some parts"

[@CCxRC]

I buy parts for the Helion Four 10TR. Same parts and I can get them in the US.

[@myrongstevensjr9800]

Where can I get spare parts vkar bision

[@jamoflys]

Look for Helion Four 10TR parts.

[@Ccodebits]

Does it come with a battery?

[@CCxRC]

Yes. It comes with a 3s LiPo battery and a balance lead charger.

[@gece8783]

Hey man could you upload just the raw footage next time? Some people just like hearing how the car actually sounds haha

[@traderlincolnmitchell9786]

good video

[@tomaslungs3845]

Should i get this for my first rc car or the jlb 21101?

[@CCxRC]

+tomas lungs either one is really great. I prefer the Bison because it feels quicker and more agile. Plus parts are easier to get quickly for the Bison if you live in a country where Helion products are available. Most JLB parts have to be ordered from China.

[@the_true_moe6715]

when I saw this car online, why does it have an exact copy of the exceed 2.4 control. it's nice though

[@CCxRC]

a lot of these companies source from the same manufacturers and rebrand them.

[@the_true_moe6715]

oh. thx

[@mecarrot8717]

that thing can take out a toddler

[@CCxRC]

+Me Carrot haha. Sure could. I've accidentally done that with my Losi10. 🙄

[@Nic_odd]

Indestructible :D

[@CCxRC]

That it is. But I'm sure I'll find the break point on it at some time...I always do. lol

[@israelcardona5170]

its just a erevo with a different body and name literally uses the same wheels and wing and wheely bar..

[@CCxRC]

Actually, the only thing that reminds me of a Revo is the body. The shocks are are like an Arrma or Losi truggy. It's a pretty common design.

[@NobodyNoWhereElse]

This is not what i call hard bashing lol. All i see is a commercial video.

[@CCxRC]

:) I don't think the commercial would've put all the crashes in there. lol. I was intentionally nose diving some to see how it would take the bad landings. Did alright. Today I did break the bolt that holds the front right shock. Bought another 3mm traxxas bolt and an HPI lock nut to fix it up and get it running again.
