Cheap grade maybe but NOT toy grade,that thing is definitely hobby grade IMO . Looks like it rips,great value for money and you guys were having fun and that's all that really matters. A great hobby for father and son and after watching you guys bond over rc I went and got my boy his first car. He's a bit young to really get into it,the wrenching etc as he's only 7,but he loves driving ( only slowly a cheap wltoys) but if I can bond with him over rc like you guys do then I'll be very happy,it's a great hobby and after losing a few people recently it's made me realise how short life can be and family is the most important thing and going out every weekend just having fun with our cars and kids is important cause in the blink of an eye he'll be going out with his kids as time whizzes by so it's important to make the most of the time we have. Anyway great video and best of luck with the channel mate,oh and I must say after watching several of your videos that your Callum is a great driver
@HardcoreRC
@HardcoreRC Год назад
Thank you for your very nice comment, means a huge amount that we have helped inspire you to get an RC for your boy and are now bonding more. Love Sundays when i get to go out and do some bonding, but as you say life goes by so quickly, Jack is now out chasing girls most Sundays and i do miss him coming out. Enjoy your time with your boy as timer really does fly by.

Run time is dependant on so many factors, temperature, how hard you are driving, surface you are driving on etc, Run this car on 5,000mAh packs that with hard constant bashing on loose dirt surface will late max 15 minutes. Stop start, or lighter slower bashing then 20 - 25 minutes

Toy grade is a bit of a running joke, mainly because its a lot cheaper than other 6s car, plus its made by the same factory that makes Arrma cars, yes they are very good cars

The Xmaxx will be back out, it actually comes out every week, just we dont film it 😂 havent had to change our servo yet as still on the stock one, although already have the part to put a standard servo in and when it goes will likely just use a DS3525 servo or a JX 35kg one

I wouldn't say a knock off, similar as in same style yes like the Tenacity and Lasernut , same as a Kraton is like a ET48 which is like a Sledge and like a Kronos etc, but the actual layout inside is different. Plus the DB8 is discontinued
