And Jake again is the first to review a truck! Lol the RC sailors were right about to tonight! You beat em by a tyre! This truck looks absolutely lovely, and evil! Keep up the INSANE work Jake! 👍👍👍👍👍👍 I love these really durable trucks form China! They always love their aluminum! I really wish local brands made Rtr trucks with this much aluminum. $300 for this 1/8 is great

[@wipatriot510]

For running 6s, they recommend upgrading to a 150A ESC...

[@TomleyRC]

Good to see you back running some RC Vehicles 😎👍🇬🇧

[@JakeBilling]

Hi Phil, hope you're doing well? Thanks for the kind words! - Jake

[@TomleyRC]

@@JakeBilling All good here Jake, just plodding along with a garage full of 'things to do' lists!

[@RecklessVac]

One question Is this waterproof?! If so, how is it? Can't really find any protection cover for it yet I see videos about it being used in mud and so on

[@philliplyn2692]

Nice truck it's worth the money just get some upgrade and everything else you'll be fine keep up the good work 🙏🙏🙏🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲💪💪💪

[@restinpiecesrc5528]

Hey Jake, do you by chance know what the stock motor pinion tooth count is? Ive got the eachine eat02 roller and installed a 3670 2150kv motor and 120amp esc, gps run only gave me 37mph, with higher kv than stock i was thinking it should be faster but i think i was given a smaller pinion than the rtr comes with

[@klausknudsen106]

If you warnt to run this on 6s you will have to change the esc to an 150a. the stock 120a can not handle 6s. but nice video ;)

[@violater7026]

What about 4 S ?

[@klausknudsen106]

@@violater7026 4s is ok for it, mine came with a 4s setup

[@philthyco1]

Very cool!!!!Any OCDAY,Gool RC or RaceStar programmer will work on that ESC

[@ryanfrieman733]

OMG, that is massive and looks like a great truck!!

[@carloscolmenares2594]

hi friend which one you recomend that pirates 3 or dhk maximus?

[@davidmolyneux7284]

I was going to get the ZD buggy but I might get this instead as I got the tiny 1/14... wltoys144001 buggy. When you get them sent to you do you have to send them back or get to keep it

[@melgozakoki85]

Wish I would of seen this one last night before buying the Rivals MT10.. good thing I have 2 kids so I'm obligated to buy one for my daughter as well lol..

[@sosoapy8154]

My question is does the truck bottom out with the chassis? Because from the footage it doesn't and that's a bad thing. Also the rims look a little skinny in the center. Scaried it might not take jumps that good

[@l.spottispotti9891]

Dear Jake ... Have u change the esc 120 a original with 150 a ? Or u use 6 s lipo with original esc ? Pls answer ... Luc

[@owen8538]

Are these durable and are parts available

[@sniper688]

Hello 6s batteries works on this model?

[@ivodeluca2325]

Waht is better, dhk zombie or this one? Pirate 3 mt8 vs dhk zombie

[@eliobakhos8740]

[@danielemulazzi1615]

Woww...video spettacolare...ma questo Monster è un missile ...una bomba ...lo compro anch'io... ciao dall'Italia

[@mrcapello2]

poi fammi sapere come va che sono interessato pure io!!!

[@danielemulazzi1615]

Si certo che ti faccio sapere...appena mi arriva da Banggood la provo e ti dico come va. ..ma ho già capito che è una bomba... ciao Grande...da Parma

[@mikeegorospe9979]

Should I buy this or the Maximus

[@stevewest7260]

The only reason I've never bought this truck before was. No front bumper or rear protection. Now it has both. Might have to consider this one.

[@stevecallrc4640]

Well done my friend! She looks like a beauty!

[@JakeBilling]

Thank you

[@daveprice9698]

Im having problem charging mine?

[@nethunamaraweera3878]

is this water proof

[@rcflo7300]

It does Not Support 6S only 2-4S.

[@martinhart9004]

I ordered this after seeing your video on it last month and it's just arrived yesterday. But the one I've got seems to have a problem with the drive. Everytime I try go forward to reverse or even from a dead stop it's struggling to go. All it will do is just stutter like it trying to go but something is stopping it til I let go of the controller and then push it again. I've check the car the best I can but can't see anything wrong and was hoping you may know anything. Many thanks

[@gonzodetroitify]

Did u ever fix what was wrong with the truck, what was it, esc calibration or something else 🤔

[@ksrnate]

Sweet video dude! I hate the way you say dam by the way! But I love the way you say Woooooooaaaaaaahhh :)

[@robertbould2638]

Hi all, thinking of buying this very soon, it comes with a 3s lipo as stock, can anyone tell me if this will run fine on a 4s lipo without any upgrades? Thanks in advance for anyone who wants to help me!

[@restinpiecesrc5528]

4s is good, just watch dimensions, 138mm L makes it a little harder to get

[@PORCIMADOMURO]

zd pirate 3 or DHK Maximus ? who is the better ?

[@FullOnRC]

Reminds me of a DHK Maximus/Zombie.

[@jomarmacasukit1383]

Hi!, im one of your new subscribers.may i ask what your opinion between pirate3 vs zombie 8e?

[@EG-vy2lm]

The v2 tires have better grip.. but the updates look good tho. Im driving the v2 with the jlb cheetah motor its vast as hell on 4 is little slower then with the stok setup on 6s but more torque. Or it might be the tires there lighter ofcourse

[@borasiman648]

So its capable of running 6s lipo fully stock with its 120amp esc right?

[@mattward4184]

Nope need better esc

[@robertbould2638]

Minimum upgrade to 150a esc to run 6s on this safely

[@BDTennessee]

Whats the difference in this and the Pirate 2 thats 50 cheaper?

[@robertbould2638]

Pirate 2 has i think 9kg servo, this pirate 3 has 15kg servo and more torque

[@tonneauguys6448]

What range you get?

[@AddyRCBuddy]

It looks dope! 🔥🔥🔥

[@johnwilson-stafford5985]

Hi jake great video again, how does it hold up against the ARRMA granite 4x4?

[@ValFPV]

Get the granite, this thing just falls apart

[@mythoughts8681]

Why do you try to break it is that your intention ?

[@deldia]

Insurance job

I am from Brazil and I want to buy my first car rc, but I'm in doubt ... help me, which you indicate me !? JLB J3 SPEED or ZD PIRATES 3?

[@classicvwbugs]

Has anyone tried this one www.geekbuying.com/item/ZD-Racing-9021-V3-RC-Car-ARR-415600.html#jbReviewsArea looks like it is just the truggy version of this truck. Both say pirates 3. I am looking to this one as it is a lil cheaper, the body covers down to the chassis, and a fan and heat sink on the motor. Anyone's thoughts?

[@innovativerc7155]

great video 👍👊

[@jamesnight156]

Now that is a BAD TRUCK! 🤔mmm! I want one. Lol

[@Shrinekeeper1]

why the hell would you want a 6s in this thing?

[@collinsnjarara3352]

What an awesome car that is. Cool editing and background music 😎 rock on dude 👊💪.

[@JakeBilling]

Hi there, thank you for the support my friend! All the best, Jake.

[@deniscaius996]

Nice I just find my son Christmas present.

[@pops4141]

Looks like a fantastic platform and I might get the truggy (I’m more of a truggy guy myself)

[@nikounourbakhsh8433]

I don’t know if this or jlb cheetah is better

[@msd24200]

It's so ugly, any different shells for it?

[@davidmolyneux7284]

Just type in on ebay truck 1/8 body shell lmao. Loads will be on there.

[@louise_efe]

Hey, can you buy sst racing 1999 brushless monster truck ? This brand isnt so famous but maybe you can give a chance :D

[@typicaltoad9610]

Could you try testing the traxxas stampede

[@brenthumphreys5747]

$260 dollars from Dropshipping. That is a 100 saving.

[@cwatson42785]

That might be the one with no electronics. They have both Rtr

[@horstknatter9823]

Not a good Truck, Trust me!!! Looks massive, but you can't bash it. This review is a Bad joke, Grass ist probably the softest ground for a Truck.

[@mattward4184]

Maybe some people take care of there stuff and get to use it for years to come. Who spends that kind if money on something you love to destroy it. Doesn't make sense to me. If you want to destroy buy a 300 dollar junk car and enter demolition derby. This "bashing " is for people with a lot of money to waste or the rc's are free. I enjoy the hobby not to constantly repair them. my full size vehicle does that for me

[@sbetv7808]

[@jonbarnell186]

Hello its lennon barnell

[@JakeBilling]

Hello Lennon 🙂👍🏻

[@ravenlorans]

To Bad the Rims are made out of a Shitty Plastic and Snap real easily. All ZD and DHK Vehicles Suffer from this. Along with WEAK/Slow Servos. So you have to get better Rims (Proline) and Replace the Servos for a 20kg one that's also Faster.

Am i the only one who hates it when these big truck Willies. Can't stand it and wish they wouldn't make them this way and keep them ground it. I love these monster trucks but the willie function just annoys the hell out of me.
