I bought a Fake Kyosho Mini-Z 4x4 off Aliexpress and then bought a Genuine one to test them side by side. Can the Fake $90 Mini-Z 4x4 compete with a $200+ real one?

I have the dark green Jimny and something is a little off with them. Perhaps it's the lower voltage on the 4 aaa batteries. I think wiring in a LiPo and coming up with some better metalwheel/tire combo would do the trick nicely.

@PrinXessDime Год назад

I wouldn’t feel bad about showing off a “knockoff” of a Kyosho vehicle, because if we are all being honest with ourselves, mini-z’s are extremely overpriced, and very outdated tech. If Kyosho wants to charge over $200 for a 1:24 scale RC, it should come with modern RC tech, not the same system from 20 years ago.

@TomleyRC Год назад

I agree.. I know most will have the same opinion. I just like to make sure others can make their own mind up and not use me to much as an influence 😅

@Raycefan Год назад

@@TomleyRC I sort of agree, however, 2 things kyosho has likely considered: 1. If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. 2. Hard to argue with the success and remaining popularity of the Mini-Z

@microrigs Год назад

As all said, the Kyosho is overpriced, everyone in the scene that bought a mini z 4x4 noticed they are weak and un capable. For the price you can get an Axial (not to mention a cheap Chinese copy) and a ton of upgrades... And have way more fun.

@whatswiththissassylostchilld Год назад

I agree with you. Just my opinion but I see kyosho as a racing rc company than anything else to be honest.

@quackman7027 Год назад

@@Raycefan personally id argue that triple a batteries in the car should have been phased out a decade ago, why pay every time you want to use it? If it aint broke, improve it in the areas its lacking.

@nomercy_AtAll Год назад

The added weight of the fake is mostly due to the larger screws used - like a weighted lower center of gravity. For $90.00 there is not much to complain about. The question is does it accept the real Mini Z hop-ups or are you stuck with what you get out of the box?

@miguelcandelaria460 Год назад

It's an identical clone so any hop up for the mini z will work

@rctrucks2094 Год назад

You could mod it to have genuine electrics in it and still be cheaper

@sambagogo777 Год назад

It'd be nice to think that the existence of such knock-offs might influence Kyosho to price their RCs more sensibly. For instance, their new Mad Wagon has plastic shocks while being priced at an outrageous £439.

@xf1757 Год назад

Yeah, I'm team clone. Considering you could spend the cost of the car on upgrading the electronics to create a superior setup and still not spend more than the genuine one, that seems like the better option. Personally though, they both seem fine as-if. I just wouldn't want to spend $200 on something that could be outperformed by an $120 SCX24 Deadbolt. 🤷‍♂

@TomleyRC Год назад

Yes, the SCX24’s are still one of the best in class

@Mckhus Год назад

Miniz is more for scale than pure performance, tyres are smaller and with different thread also it’s a straight axle over worn gears so you have the benefit of rolling. Not to try and justify 200$ on it, don’t get me wrong I feel like minizs are fairly overpriced but it’s hard to compare as they aim for different things

@GSG-lc5zm Год назад

Hey.. Kyosho plays the same game Traxxas and Tamiya do. Stop over charging guys. I mean, I like the brands but my biggest issue over 40 years of the hobby has been "excessive pricing", NOW, there are plenty of options. Most times you can find a competitor that's better for less, a lot less . Seriously, If you don't over price your product then you don't leave much room for knockoffs to be profitable, kinda sowed your own fate by being greedy, in my opinion

@youseflegg2298 Год назад

@TomleyRC Год назад

@Addicted_2RC Год назад

Tomley get yourself a few 3.7 volt lipo AAA batteries and a few dummy AAA cells. you will end up using 2 dummy batteries and 2 real batteries for more juice in each mini z. It will give you just over 2 volts more then the 4 AAA setup. What a difference it makes. More juice = more power!!! This is how I setup my mini z's now. My brushless mini z Evo kit must do about 20 mph now. It just about doubles the speed of any mini z. Great video Tomley 👊👊👍👍

@polarbearjf Год назад

I'd say the difference isn't in drove or parts in this case. I guess Kotosh have to pay licencing? Same as Axial with the SCX24, The deadbolt is the cheapest csuse there is no licensing for them to pay as its a mage up car? Loved the vid keep em coming!

@michaeldorich4485 Год назад

This is another great video. Are these 1/24 scale trucks? You can some listings saying the Kyuosho is 1/28.They both performed well. One thing I thought was interesting about the Kyosho model was the the right front tire. It would come off the surface on steep inclines in your shop and out on the trial. I found it interesting that on Amazon in the states you can find well known 1/24 scales at reasonable prices. Keep up the good work.

@3rdpig Год назад

Considering the original is not only made in Japan (at least from what I can tell, the parent company has changed ownership several times in recent years), better materials are used, QC is higher and the bodies are licensed, I just couldn't buy the clone despite how good it is. The more we support companies who steal IPs and have no original designs of their own, the less time and effort legit companies will put into original designs. just sayin...

@mitsmatsushita9941 Год назад

I have to absolutely agree with Chuck. I have been a Lego builder for the last 50 years of my life and it truly annoys me when copy cats steal the designs that Lego engineers have spent countless hours working on. The same with Kyosho, their engineers have spent a lot of time designing their products as well as paying license fees for using the body design. Perhaps if people stopped supporting the copy cat companies and supported Kyosho they could lower their prices and refresh their designs. BTW - LOVE the channel, has helped me get back into the RC hobby. Thanks Tomley RC!!!

@TheTruthHz Год назад

One hundred percent agreed with you on that. I already have two Kyosho miniZ trucks and although there are complaints with them I wouldn't even be tempted to buy the clone. The more we support these fly by night IP thiefs the more we put the original companies at risk.

@techpriest4787 Год назад

For the record though. It is not only the Chinese that clone. Germans do it too now. For the ALDI store they got that River Cola. It got the same colors and writing style too. Frankly it even tastes the same yet costs ~1/3 of the original Coca Cola that you can by at the same ALDI right next in the same shelf. I am all for supporting original creators but only for a limited time like a bonus. I am afraid over a period of decades those original creations become abusive and rip you off.

@BangForYourBuckRc Год назад

Kinda reminds me of what Happened with RocHobby and Eazy Rc. EAZY Rc ended up being the same company as Rock Hobby using maybe slightly lesser quality packaging and lesser quality material. Maybe Kyosho owns owns the lesser brand and is putting out a copy cat of their high end vehicle knowing that Kyosho fans won’t go for the lesser model, yet making money on the green one , because there is a market for these for guys like me who like to save money. My bet is the “clone” is actually an affiliate company to Kyosho. Bet they will sell a ton Of these clones while selling a fair amount of overpriced mini z’s too to people who are brand snobs and value means nothing! Great video Phil!😎👍🏻🍻

Those will wear out and it ends up buying their genuie hardened steel gears.

I do not like how directly they cloned the Mini-Z right down to using their product name on the box... but... I'm broke and want to have fun. Kyosho could price closer to a range I can afford or they can live without my sale while the clone gets it... clearly it's possible to make those vehicles at a profit for far less money. :\

Mine cracked in a week. 4 transmitter trimming all in wrong direction, so if you trim to left, it will go right. Front will go back.. 5 front light cups need to drill 3mm hole to install leds... 6 you cant reset center point from transmitter like the miniz does, only way to center is from the trim vr.

I mean, to be honest. I love kyosho, I pretty much have a 4runner modded to the 9's. They are just not as capable as axial scx24's though. I'm just going to be honest, cheaper, better mod availability and they perform better and it's easier for them on obstacles. Kyosho's just look good and they are more "to scale" vs scx24's. So I can see why people would like the appeal of a replica mini z but then again. You can spend like $40 more and just get an axial instead. Plus when you mod a kyosho they don't perform well and you really have to keep adding on mods.

Clones / copies whatever you want to call them are getting closer to original than ever before no matter what the item . Drag break aside, the clone performed pretty much the same really.
