Mugen is amazing. back in the early 200's before mugen built an electric buggy. Me and a friend had already done it. We converted one you would have normally put a nitro motor into and it rocked it come out balanced and the whole deal. I still have it to this day and I will never give it up. I stopped messing with RC cars, the last 10 years and just found out my buddy is back into it again so I am getting things geared up and getting ready to run. I seen they now have this new MBX-8 and was going to consider getting one but mine is still killer so I am thinking no need to upgrade because its just as good as the new stuff. I can say one thing though They have some of the best and toughest plastic parts around.
Can't wait for results. This is a great stock comparison. I'm happy your doing it this way. I'm one that can't afford to buy all the parts to be super competitive. So let the stock games begin. Thanks
Cool to see a new video, your channel really helped get me in to RC. As an old broken dirt bike rider I LOVE the shootout idea, like motocross action mags when we were in high school🤘🏻
Not into 8th scale but so glad to see you doing reviews and videos. who knows maybe by the time you are done with the series I might have to jump into 8th scale. Great video and please keep them coming
This will be amazing!! Nothing like it on RU-vid. Dont stress on your production quality, your content is great, straight to the point, no messing around. Cant wait for the review, cheers my friend ✌🏻️
Glad you are back, making videos is a huge time suck and no one will ever understand the amount of time and work videos take. I get burned out 2-3 times a year because it’s all I do. Thanks for new content!
Thank u For finally making your 8th vidz again. miss u buddy. And U were the best at doing "V.S" reviews and everything 8th off road. Thanks man PLZ KEEPEM COMING FOR US
Hey Jason, so cool that you’re back with your channel. Time for me then to build my first 8th scale (RC8 3.2e) that was waiting in its box and go to a track. Can’t wait for the next video. Cheers!
Glad to see you making videos again. I've run Mugen, Tekno, and now Sworkz. All great cars. Broke very few parts with any of them. The Kyoshos and AE cars always look good at the track but they also seem to break the most. Same for TLR before the X. Seems to be better now! Looking forward to more of your thoughts on the cars.
Great stuff. Don't take this the wrong way. I wish in these car overviews more time was spent on the mechanical - like compare Kyosho's upfront motor position vs. the TLR's rear position. I think there's too much discussion over the electronics, which is not what makes the cars different - it's the mechanical design.
I can't wait for this series, I'm a little biased but I'd like to see the kyosho come out in top. I've been running mine for a little over a year and a half and have only broke one front arm and one c hub on different occasions. Both crashes were hits at full speed and I wouldn't expect any of the other cars to have survived either. Overall it's been a super easy buggy to tune and drive fast
So awesome to see this video come across my screen... cheers!!! Looking forward to more content to come... I'm debating 8th scale E-Buggy for next year, my son has had a Tekno 2.0 for a year now... debating Tekno, HB, and possibly others... might get the kid a 2.1 and take the old 2.0...
Hello, I saw an older video where you reviewed the kyosho and made the same observation of it being more prone to downtime than other similar buggies. How is this new model holding up to your I assume mellower but perhaps clumsier (you are a bit out of practice) driving? As it is easy to drive, it may be a good beginner car, but not if it cant withstand beginners’ errors.
I have a mugen mbx6 eco with tekin gen2 2200kv, kyosho mp777 with navarossi pxl21. I want a new buggy. Would appreciate your pick between mugen mbx8r with Adam drake engine or kyosho mp11 ?
Great video! I started a motorcycle TikTok channel and ran into the same thing. Is this fun? Is this who I am? Now i don't edit what so ever. I make the video and post it. Back to RC I'm extremely new to the sport. I bought an Associated RC8B4E kit built it and have gotten to the track twice to practice. I Truely don't understand how running the shocks dead (emulation) does anting other make you run a stiffer spring.
mugen is best.... i pay for all my items............. unlike these jokers where they get all for free so they have to say good items about it otherwise they dont get any more free stuff
