Makerfire has the mjx10208 right now , pre orders are in . They re calling it the upgraded v1 version in the email . They stated next batch around October . I ain’t getting one because I have this and the granite running good for me atm and I ll keep them that way until I can’t , lol
Intresting you got the one out of 100 that had poor control. I was also one of the ones to pre order if that’s what you want to cal it, it was more like give us your $ & we’ll get back to you whenever without communicating.😂 But anyways I’ve had no issues with mine the stock esc came loose & the battery if not secured enough will come out but other then that I’ve been running it with a Rustler 4x4 VXL but it has a Max 10 in it the Rustler is larger more of a true 1:10 scale & definitely faster. But the Terminator is blast I’d like to get it a little lower but I have alot of time on mine now & after jumping it running into stuff where I thought something would break but nothing yet. I’m curious how fast it is on 4s. I have a Spektrum 4s esc that I oiled drop in mine. Also I’ve never ran mine with the stock battery you will definitely not need the wheelie bar if you run it. I use a 3s battery with a higher cell count the stock battery is 35c & I’m running a 120c 3s & yes I need the wheelie bar. 👍
I like mine . Diff outdrives wear and blew a few e clips off the shocks under the piston , bent the front chassis and hinge pin , all fixed now , Nothjng major . I ve jumped the heck out of it . Metal hub screws keep coming loose , no biggie so far
Wow, not a good look for Rlaarlo but I appreciate the honesty. You'd think they've been around for long enough now that the QC issues should have been worked out 🤷♂ ..makes me even more hesitant to build up the 917, but I'll just check everything to be sure. Like you said, roller is the way to go👍
I was really surprised by the lacking QC. I am glad that you got the roller 917. The roller is $167 right now. I wish that I got the roller 787. I cannot believe that they ship the 917 and 787 Carbon RTR with a 2S battery.🙄
I like mine too but I think a granite is better all around . Even though this lands nicer and is pretty smooth . I like them both but if there was a choice to be made I’d go with the granite or big rock . I might feel different if the diff outdrives held up better .
Rlaarlo QC seems pretty poor.. and they dont seem to abide by their own warranty T&Cs either.. or deliver parts within a month of order. Disappointing.
The people designing these vehicles are doing an awesome job. The People building and QC'ing them,,,,,,,,,,, not so much. With that said, I am extremely excited about the Hobao TT 2.0. It looks to be a very good project Truck with many varying build options. I like what I see so far.
