This could be the truck we have all been waiting for.. A Budget friendly 3s beginner option which ticks so many boxes! Well done HPI/Maverick! This will be available soon and you can find your local dealer here: www.hpiracing.com/en/shops let me know what you think of this new truck in the comments! I am seeing some people commenting that this did well at a skatepark on another channel. I dont support skateparks on this channel. This is a beginner inspired truck which has no place at a skatepark in my opinion but each to their own. I wont be telling people how to run their RC cars. I have no interest in skateparks as they are an unfair test again that's my opinion please dont be offended. See you on the next one! 😎👍

Nice truck Here haha I seen tomley did a wild vid at sk8 Park. Yup I'm the same I am not into High jumps or wild stuff I love speed crazy on road stuff will do small jumps but that's it. Yea no matter what parts will break and these guys don't know that when u land these hard servos motors start getting internally damaged. I am also a rc jet guy so I know 😅

Tomley did a skate park bash with this and it stood up to the abuse really well. He did a full speed jump maybe about 30 feet and nose dived it onto concrete, he broke 2 teeth on the diff. Really impressive little truck!

Great video keep up the great work. How to compare it with the corally sketer??

@beyondRC 4 ай бұрын

The sketer is better built and 100% more durable but it’s more expensive and the looks are 50/50. I would say the sketer 4s would be an intermediate truck whereas this is better for a beginner

@NathanStorer-RC 5 ай бұрын

I think you hit it right saying it's a good beginner truck, however it is probably a good intermediate truck also. My only concern would be how readily available replacement parts are. Hopefully they'll be plentiful, and easy enough to procure.

Great vid! - Yes it holds up fantastic at a Skate park - Just seen a couple of other vid's 👍- Tho not being a Skatepark basher myself, I need some advice - Which buggy would you recomend best, between the Rlaarlo Desert Buggy 1/12 or the MJX 14209 - both look great to me (I'm stepping up from an HBX16889a - which has been brill!) -Thanks for any advice👍

@beyondRC 5 ай бұрын

the 14209 or 210 are fantastic i have to say and i think are more capable than the rlaarlo.

Really nice truck. What’s it like size wise, Ricky ? Is it a small 1/10 like an mt10, a true 1/10 like a Granite, an “L” like a Big Rock or XXL like an armma 4s ? You showed the mt10 with included battery and charger, is that because this comes with both ? If not, I’m guessing the mt10 is still around £80 more ?

@beyondRC 5 ай бұрын

i am going to try and do a comparison of similarly priced trucks for people in this price range. Stay tuned for that. the mt10 without the battery and charger is around £329 i believe so £80 or so more. Factor in most people especially those just starting will have to buy a battery or two and a charger and the cost will be close to £400.

Tomalley took it to the skatepark, it proved to be super durable. This looks to be a great truck,, according to Tomley, Aussie Rc they both found it very tough. I don't do skateparks but its interesting to know that its durable. I think this looks like a serious rival (excuse pun) to the MT10, looks good too in green.

Looks like a great early truck to own. I have been introduced to the hobby by my young son (ahem), we are a little way in now with 5 RC cars / trucks. We started with a cheap Chinese Hosim, then HBX, then I picked up a Strada MT and we upgraded it to brushless, then an FTX Zorro brushless and now we have an Arrma big rock.. All that in just over a year!! Anyway, looks like this would suit anyone who wants something they can start and grow into before they move onto to something a bit more challenging / exciting. Price and truck looks good to me.

how does this compare to the cheaper Chinese options? i guess there is not really a good 1/10 Chinese option, but how does this compare to say a 1/12 AM-D12?

@beyondRC 5 ай бұрын

way more capable firstly as its 1/10 so much larger than the cheaper/smaller Chinese offerings. Parts should also be way easier to obtain from local stores. If the budget can stretch something like this will always beat the cheaper Chinese stuff. Those cars are perfect for people on a very tight budget looking to get into the hobby.
