Theres no reason why that car cant run on 3s on a flat clean road like that..did you hold it at fjll throttle and make sure tires were not expanding and hitting the body or frame...i saw a few reviews where that was the problem...

I hate glueing tires too, good honest review, I probably would like it cause I like the slower cars and trucks since I'm old and slow. Yeah I enjoyed my Traxxas Bandit most when I slowed it down so it became more controleble🙏☮️✝️

Absolutely it's still fun for sure yes personally I find that it's the main problem body trimming it's not a big deal really also have to adjust the gyro and st rate as mentioned it's a little twitchy 😂. Thanks for watching much appreciated it !

Thank you spare parts are available at the hobby shops in the UK model sport . Also available at AliExpress
@tylerowen61528 ай бұрын
Just ordered one of these thanks for your honest review! Looks like the sensible thing to do is keep this on 2S. I saw on another review that the gyro was working the wrong way out of the box and needed to be reset so maybe this could have contributed to the twitchyness ?
@Fonzierc7 ай бұрын
Thank you very much for checking in! Glad you enjoyed it and yes the gyro was the wrong way also the only way it got slightly better was because I have turned it right down . Agree with you 3s it's quite a handful for it but I will be trying that again 😄

The Stinger in mental on 3S, tires balloon that bad. Foam tires, or better on road tires. It's an excellent running rc .👍👍👍

Hi Fonzie, a great video, the FTX Stinger certainly looks the part and looked very smooth running, sorry that the tyres don’t seem to be right, surely, that can’t be too expensive to change to see if this RC car gives you more feeling 😊😊best wishes 😊

for a small cheap and cheerful 10th scale car , i have just ordered two of the new HSP HISPEED GT BRUSHLESS 3S TOURING ( 56 mph ) , with hobbywing motor & hobbywing ESC ( 60 amp) with 15 kg metal servo and with all metal drive train , with Honda NSX body shell , along with a couple of additional extra body shells . The wheels will not catch on the rear diffuser or the body shell because you can raise or lower the body shell , and secondly the diffuser is not as wide as the FTX STINGER , nor is the chassis , as the chassis is similar in width to my kyosho 1969 chevrolet camaro Z28 VE cars . Major down side of the STINGER is that you can not raise the body shell height for more clearance , like you can with the HSP HISPEED GT TOURING 3S . I am just waiting for delivery of my two HSP cars to come by courier ( from SERIOUS RC in the UK ) , 2 cars bulk buy price for £156 UK POUNDS each , without the lipo battery option without the additional added on cost. The extra body shells are only £20 uk pounds a piece . The cars comes with a fly sky transmitter / receiver like my 14th scale LC RACING EMB-RA RALLY cars . Personally I think the new HSP HISPEED GT is the better option for a small 10th scale RC over the more expensive with a couple of issues FTX STINGER . I have already bought and got the FTX SUPERFORZA GT in blue , and i have just ordered another SUPERFORZA GT in red . 99% of my RC cars are , road cars , rally cars , touring / GT cars . I have two buggies in my collection which are HoBao Hyper VS2 , along with my HoBao VT and GT cars .

@@Fonziercno problem thanks , I really think THE HSP HISPEED GT is the way to go for a dirt cheap 10th scale on road car , very easy chassis to maintain and fix , and has the hex bolts , very similar chassis as my beautiful kyosho 1969 chevrolet camaro Z28 VE cars 👌🏽👍
@ianjohnhorwood260526 күн бұрын
actually i meant to say the chassis is the same width as the kyosho fazer chassis tub , but all the HSP'S electronics , swing arms , are all exactly the same as the FTX STINGER's , but the body mounts are different from the STINGER's and are adjustable .
