My r40 and hpi pro 2 is still sitting on the shelf in the original box. I stopped running them when HPi started having issues. Now it’s just rebranded Chinese junk.

@gillian9178 4 месяца назад

HPI should be congratulated on this new Quantum2 truck, it is night & day better than the old orininal Quantum. I still have an original Quantum Flux from a few years back & still run it now & again, but most are aware of the durability issues with that truck. I have had the new Quantum2 Flux in the best color green of coarse for a few months now, it is a fantastic budget truck. One of the most durable 1/10 trucks you can buy in my opinion, It also drives pretty good as well & easy to drive for newcomers with little or no rc driving experince. The new radio is also better than the old radio as well.

@Basherqueen 4 месяца назад

Basherqueen Approved ! 💪They trucks are absolutely AWESOME! Super tough and they drive really nice! Fast, Durable, cheap and easy to work on. The ULTIMATE 1/10 scale. Basherqueen already makes Upgrades for them, Aluminum Motor mount for extra BIG AIR. Also, a Carbon Fiber Center Brace is on the line. Thanks AMain Hobbies for bringing them to us, you won't regret that move! 😘

@OscarOliu 4 месяца назад

I had t he quantum flux+ and honestly, one of the best RC trucks I ever owned. The center diff was extremely well balanced and you gunned it even at 4s it didn't get unstable. I still regret selling it.

Its like a basher mt10 with wider wheel base i dig it

@nemesis8664 4 месяца назад

Mine has proven to be more agile and durable than any Traxxas or Arrma. And more fun to drive. It happens that people still have bad memories of the first versions in their heads, in addition to the fact that many are worshipers of their favorite brand and do not dare to try different and really good things. They only care that the model is expensive and large.

@UnrivaledPiercer 4 месяца назад

"Basher Brands" need to stop. They're not selling because a lot of people don't even know what they are or who they are manufactured by. If they just said HPI on the box and then called it a "Basher Series" or something, it would be much better. There's honestly zero reason to change brands other than making the suits happy. It does nothing for the hobby itself. You can still sort and catalog your product by UPC and such without alienating and confusing the customer. I like HPI, I've owned quite a few, but there's no reason to rebrand.

@FarmerFpv 4 месяца назад

I've seen they are really popular on the Europe and UK RU-vid basher channels. It does take a beating. Would make a perfect skatepark stunt truck.

@2WingSamebird24 4 месяца назад

I’ve been trying to talk myself into buying this truck for about a month. If it came with a lipo I would’ve pulled the trigger. Or even another edition that came with a lipo for like $300 they would’ve nailed it. The truck is mint it needs to be marketed better it’s very underrated. Cool video.

@Boogie_the_cat 4 месяца назад

I understand people buying their first truck want a lipo, but now that I own 5 lipo batteries, I'm happy to not pay extra for a lipo that comes with the truck. Plus, they'd include a terrible USB lipo charger that takes 5 hours to charge a 3s 2000 mAh lipo (not exaggerating) and so you'd be paying for crap. If you wanna be in the hobby you need a decent balance charger anyway for safety fast charging and long-term reliability.

@BurungBiru 4 месяца назад

@Hungrybird474 4 месяца назад

This looks like a fun RC to me . IMHO , if they’re taken care of and cleaned up after every use whether it be a air compressor or leaf blower . I find it good to blow the dust off and use some wd 40 or silicone lube and keep them clean , somewhat clean . Especially the driveshafts .

@V8chump 4 месяца назад

I’m glad companies are starting to put solid plastic links on bashers. No need to buy spare rod ends AND rods, they’re lighter, and they should be even more durable

@27Zangle 4 месяца назад

First, you're looking healthy! Second, I've always felt the 38-42 range for speed to be the best of both worlds. Fast enough to have fun, but also slow enough to not worry about breaking many parts while having fun.

Why don't you guys pay someone with a skid steer and a rock bucket to come in and clear all the large rocks from that dirt area? Wouldn't take long at all.

@IntegraDIY 4 месяца назад

They put those rocks there on purpose. It’s to show the trucks flipping and tumbling etc. more like a torture test. Usually people don’t run their RC’s into 8” tall rocks full speed, but for demonstration purposes it’s cool

@PigglyWigglyDeluxe 4 месяца назад

You guys should make a video with the Associated SR7, I saw that you guys have a few at the showroom. The lack of content from Associated and creators with that car is really frustrating. Associated still hasn’t published exploded views, manuals, part numbers, option parts, nothing. No videos of anyone driving it. I want to know if the Castle ESC that comes in that car can be programmed with Castle Link. I know it’s a Sidewinder 8th clone, but still.

Been on the fence about these for a while. Looks better than my initial thoughts. Only downside seems to be slipper rather than third diff.

@just.jose.youtube 4 месяца назад

Kinda newb here: what are the differences between having a slipper clutch vs the third differential?

@FullOnRC 4 месяца назад

@@just.jose.youtube 3rd diff just gives better overall handling. Doesn't impact an RC of this size too much. The version before this had three diffs so it is more to do with my own personal preference. After watching AMain Hobbies video. I must admit I want one more.

@just.jose.youtube 4 месяца назад

@@FullOnRC OK! Thanks! Ialso guess that a clutch will always divide power 50-50% for front ant rear axle... On the other hand, with a diff, some power may be lost on the axle with less traction, right?

@FullOnRC 4 месяца назад

@@just.jose.youtube Pretty much. There are all kinds of reasons why people prefer it TBH.. I think slipper clutches work best in 2wd to help power delivery to the two rear wheels. I had the Arrma 4s 4wd that had a slipper clutch and had nothing but problems with it. Probably one of the reasons their new 4s cars have a diff instead of the old slipper.

For being mostly plastic and steel parts, I think 275$ is a bit on the pricey side even for an RTR. Are there aluminum upgrades? Are the replacement parts east to find? I just think it’s worth more around $175 for the brushed and $199 for the brushless version.

@christopheranderson6931 4 месяца назад

It's cheaper than almost anything else on the market at the same scale, 4wd and brushless. The Arrma cars have more plastic than this (not that this is a bad thing)

@IntegraDIY 4 месяца назад

the quality of their products went into the toilet. Almost $300 for a Chinese toy like RC, all flexible plastic and steel parts that’ll rust easy. For a beginner looking for something nice, spend $200 more dollars, and find a second hand radio with a higher quality chassis and it’ll be money well spend.
