Kyosho Mini-z Buggy Unboxing and First Run 

Run these in the garage, buggies and street cars, absolute blast with a few friends..can setup a course with rope or just about anything.. get a little drifting goin on with a slick garage floor..

The problem is in the UK these are selling for $270! I would like one but at that price, it's just better to get something else.

Thanks Tony. I was just given one of these yesterday and looking forward to hopefully driving it tomorrow.

I have one! Performs great. Fully ball raced and added a mod motor. Fast with good rechargeable batts.

One of the biggest upgrades you can get is the big bore shocks and good AAA rechargeable batteries

thanks for the review! I am going to buy one for my first racer!

I’ve got mine today and mine is the mini z buggy mb-010 series for $300 AUD

Ive been eyeing one of these for a good while. This may be what makes me take the leap

Price keeps me away from these but they are definitely the nicest of the little bitties for racing around inside!

The world of RCs... Is getting smaller everyday. And that's big fun for a small ones 🤠😜

Unboxing Kyosho mini z buggy 👍

Cool buggy! I still have my old Losi Mini-T and Micro-T! Thanks for the video, subbed!

I like it my RU-vid friend, looks pretty cool. 👌 👍🤙

You know when your so excited for something you watch an unboxing video? Thata me rn

I can't decide between this and a losi mini b, both are priced similarly The kyosho seems fun and simple with AAA batteries and only for indoors, while losi is larger and can be used outdoors

I love mine. I went for the upgraded brushed motor from Kyosho which made it come alive a bit more, without the crazy expense of the brushless setup. I have a Mini-T 2.0 brushless for that and besides, the Mini-Z is no good indoors if it’s too fast!

I’m the same way bro. I can’t narrate videos with people around me. I feel so awkward 😂. That’s why most of my videos I film are at this bmx track where nobody ever goes.

That handling tho 🥷

Nice review. I really like the concept of these things (indoor fun, particularly during the upcoming cold season where I don't see myself deep in the woods with my Rustler), and the price is pretty steep, but Kyosho seems like a tried and true company with quality products. I also like how they just use rechargeable AAAs as I have dozens of them (young kid = going through lots of batteries lol) so I don't have to deal with more LiPos and all that. The biggest issue I can see is being able to find these things. I've got a few hobby shops within a 45 minute drive but I'm thinking they're going to sell out of the limited stock they already have by the time my budget opens up a bit. Oh well. Thanks for making this video, though!

I like Kyosho and I think the car is cool but not practical at that price. You can get a Losi mini T that can run outside or inside for less.

These are actually really good pretty tough I felt the same on the price but totally worth it

Thanks for the video didn't know

You mean you didn't want them to think you were racing your invisible rc pal 😆

Very good description, bro.

wow that's so smooth 😮😮👍👍

Love my mini z cars on the RCP track, however I only have on road cars. That off road somehow does not make a lot of sense to me unless I can run it outside.

Great video we all appreciate it

Thanks for sharing

It looks cool! I was waiting for one of those monsters to run it over! LOL!

Awesome video as always. Subscribing for more

I wish there was a Bezgar 5 championship these lil trucks run all over a mini z js

Tony how so these compare to the team Associated 28 line?

Are those black jump ramps custom made?

Done any upgrades too this ? Should get the mini-z x-speed motor as well for the mini-z awd (that one is compatible with the mini-z buggy) it's a welcome upgrade too the performance of this honestly without going with their brushless kit which easily is another 300. I myself will be saving up too get a Carisma gt24b as i want something similar, besides the wltoys K989 i got in the mail today after asking myself if i should get something rc again close too mini-z size & pulling the trigger throwing 50 usd that way while I'm also saving up for some pc parts, performs about what i expected with some problems of buying cheap rc's which so far is the drivetrain. Besides needing to take it apart too fix the drivetrain (Excess plastic on the wltoys needing some sanding down & trimming with a blade too stop the motor from overheating as much. Along with the battery lasting longer once this is fixed, with some minor work on it so far ive gotten about 25 - 30 minutes out of the 400 mah 2s lipo. Also need too do this with the rear & front diff as they are not exactly working as diffs atm but should be fairly straight forward too do & free in terms of cost other then time.) I like the wltoys k989 so far still though, just wish i could shorten the wheelbase too fit my old mini-z bodies. 2 which are from a clone of a mini-z mr01 from like 2006 - 2009, good luck finding an iwaver 01 these days lol. Which are 90mm a evo 6 or 7 & a dodge viper gt-s r i think and a genuine autoscale subaru impreza that was a re-release of a mini-z mr01 body, which since i bought it for like 27 usd has increased too like 100+ usd used online... Worst case scenario I'll be putting these electrics into my mini-z mr01 (first mini-z that came out.) just too revive that & have the bodies i want too run without buying a mini-z mr03 sports used or new just too do that.

Do you know why my reverse isn’t working?

Very expensive for what you get over priced if you ask me the losi mini b or t is better way to go if you guys are looking for a small car

I enjoyed watching your video bro but I don't think I could ever justify spending that much on a mini z I know there hobby grade but they just have a toy grade look to them but that's not the main reason the main reason is there is so much better rc's out there for that price like scx24's the wpl's or if you want a buggy even a wltoys for that money, I just couldn't justify spending that on something you stick AA battries in haha 😉 but still enjoyed watching it buddy

I'm getting a mini-z buggy and was wondering if u could answer a couple questions I have please. First, is the esc and receiver together or separate? Second, if they are separate, would I b able fit a small receiver for a flysky nb4? Thank you for your time

At that size does low center of gravity really matter..thing looks like it ways as much as a smart phone lol Cool but waaaay too small for me personally.

Beautifull

how does this compare to the Losi micro? which has fast lipo's that can be charged in a short time? My micro is getting old and i cant find anything else that looks like it exceptthis mini z buggy. :) tnx

Those AAA batteries.....Is that a RadioShack logo?

Can this be upgraded with a faster motor?

I bought two of these and the steering rod pops off he servo arm constantly. One now has a grinding sound out of the gear box. Not even one battery pack through them yet. They are JUNK! I tried to return them and RCMart will not take them back. Buyer beware! I wasted hundreds of dollars,

How fast can it go? Like how many kph?

189$ is crazy for this. Just my opinion. Looks cool though.

Come on kyosho no more mini cars bring back nitro

$189 is way to expensive for this

Almost 200 bucks with just plastic shocks?? Kyosho charges way too much for their products!👎

the steering an speed are good, but $200 for a small rc that takes AAA batteries? They look like a $100 rc.

So slow so boring so expensive..

Way overpriced like all mini z.
