Kevin's logic $100 RC: why is this so expensive? $450 RC: dirt cheap RC review!

I got the HBX devistator bc of you and I LOVE IT!!! Thank you for the great recomondations

Me: looks at the thumbnail WHAT HAPPENED?????? 😂

Kev, there’s one awesome little budget crawler I’d LOVE to see your take on. It’s the ECX Temper gen 2!! Give it a try PLEASE!

Nice little crawler there... I got my boy the FTX Ravine for the crimbo and I use it more 😂

5:36 how I feel when I realize I have school tomorrow

I love the HBX stuff, we got a couple of Rampages and they kick ass. Even bring them to the skatepark with the xmaxx trucks

This a great demonstration. Love the vids PS how's the outcast 4s I would like to see more of that car

Can you find the absolute cheapest hobby grade RC, and put it against the most expensive toy grade RC.

Ive got the new Devastator and it's brilliant. Ive done some real cool crawling with it. You didn't mention that now it comes with a li-po batterie and a light to say that it's charged.

I was just looking on amazon for a rock crawler like the 100$ one and I found the exact off road Jeep one for 130$😂

Hi Kev, been watching your videos for a few weeks and must say I really enjoy them, especially the workshop and project ones. You're the first KZfaqr I've actually subscribed to so keep up the good work. I've just ordered one of these and wondered if you had any recommendations for upgrades. Little more speed is always nice. Cheers Stu

You have inspired me to get a trx4 with all these crawler vids and I actually did and its awesome😁 That was a great purchase.😄

could you give us a slight estimation on when the next engine in toy car part 4 will come out

So today in school we had to write a essay on the person who expires us and I chose you!!

you should build a proper crawling track for testing RC's l indoor project

Hey, A+ stuff! The cheap equipment draws people that wouldn't otherwise jump in. I'm dipping my toes today, just ordered an HBX Rampage and oil shocks, with plans to 'step up' to a WLToys 10428B this summer. After that I'll look at a nice crawler or buggy depending on how I most enjoy these in like, a year when I can afford it. Thanks for all your videos!

Devastator is awesome. Just wish the tires would be a bit more grippy. Cool to see they’ve adjusted the design. Moving the charger plug and power switch is a big plus. Entertaining video!

ive had the a couple of the big one a realy cheap rc they go through some pretty good stuff

Thanks for the steering tip! I’ve done the modification, and the car steers allot better!

We all start somewhere. Cars like these have a place in the chain. 👍

Perfect this things gonna be awsome for my son inside for these -50 Canadian winters. Probably gonna be many mornings waking up with this thing crawling over my head in the bed. Cheers bud

Can you take the body of the Red Devil and build that in to a capable mini/micro crawler? Would be amazing to see!

Hey Kevin really enjoy watching your show from Australia, just bought a devastator, wanted your advice on wat I could upgrade the motor to, and wat new new tires I should get thanks 🤙🏻

Bought the hbx for my kid for Xmas, we both love it. Add extra wheel weight with wraps of solder around the rim helps stability. Mine climbs 54 degrees. Rc4wd tyre upgrade coming. Friend just got scx24 at over double the cost, we haven't had a competition yet!

Hey kev... is there any way I could maby steal a part from one of ur broken Devstator for my broken gear on mine? It's also a part u can't buy anywhere

The red devil looked like it wasn't spinning The rear tires

Love your videos I hope to be able to have as many rc cars as you thank you you are an inspiration to so many people

This is basically TopGear in RC.

I love your channel. Love the honesty and the joy I see in ur eyes when ur playing with them. I'm wondering how I could start testing rc cars like you do. Could you help me out

Why did you change the thumbnail? I was scrolling KZfaq and saw the thumbnail during lunch at school and I was laughing my ass off and everyone was staring at me 😂

Video idea, so you made a crawler do 40mph+ so why dont you make a basher into a crawler

When you’re trying to review rc cars and Agent Smith makes your mouth disappear

Ive been watching all your xmaxx videos and youve done alot, but one thing you havent done is put a 1340kv leopard motor with a hobbywing max 5, yes the max 5 fits, they make a bracket for it to mount on top of the braces that sit above where the old esc sits. The leopard motor is the size of a pop can almost. Its powerful,

The bigger crawler is great for a project and the metal frame look great

Can you please try to put two 6s lipos in the xmaxx

It would be interesting to see where you'd rank the Axial SCX24 among the indoor crawlers.

Awesome vid Kevin, I do think you explained the differences about the cheaper units to a better Rc grade unit , I also think your spot on about people being able to start off with something that’s a lot less money and then they still get to learn exactly how everything works and then their more likely to move up to a real Rc because they can better understand the workings and the movements without having learnt a big lesson by wrecking a real Rc like Traxxas ect... and losing interest because they had to spend extra money fixing something they really didn’t get to enjoy before truly understanding it 1st ! But I don’t ever think that the Chinese Rc’s will ever replace top notch Rc’s because the Chinese stuff aren’t even close to the type of Rc quality you get from the top Rc builders , and overall the Chinese Rc’s aren’t far off the top Rc prices , so you really do get what you pay for when it comes to buying 1 from the top Rc builders ! Keep up the Great vids ! 👍✌️

This is an amazing small crawler

Hey kev When are you going to do a fix vid of the rustler? 👍👍

Hey kev glad you made this vid like I asked about! *so the other day I was ramping my rustler like 8ft high and it was fine but yesterday I drove it off of a 2ft drop and the shocj broke LOL*

Great video. Just goes to show you if you spend a little bit more it's much better. But you can still have fun with all of them. But I would like the expensive 1 lol 😂 Good Job. Love the look of the Devastator.

Do you think on the Devastator if you wanted to you could remove and swap the battery with a little bit of effort?

The off road brand would be pretty cool if it had different Axel's and maybe some hobby grade parts. I like the look of it

Cool little trucks. Nice vice grips on the chair shaft...hehe.

You should turn that black cheapo into something good, like put a good motor and radio and stuff

This is another col vid. Thanks for great vids

hay man i just want to say keep up the good work and never give up and keep that good enthusiasm :)

Basher Rocksta is my fav, very similar to the HBX, but more capable IMO

Hey kev, would love to see a comparison between the devestator and the axial 1/24 crawler. Would be a awesome comparison

I wonder if the tires from the off-road will fit on the devastator

How I feel this video you just picture of the watch watch a broken key by those toys just like me

I love my Devastator! I got it a few years ago when they came out. The only thing I've ever done to it is put RC4WD tires on it! They're taller and softer. I'd like to see you do a hobby grade build using the metal Jeep body and the cage!

Kev try upgrading the battery of the cheap big crawler the black one with twice the voltage of its stock battery I've tried it. It really moves a lot more and I can even get it up on its own if it is on sideways. Great Video by the way😁😁😁

Can you get bigger wheels that will fit on those to make it a little more capable?

The red one needs a bit more weight to climb it. The reason for more weight in the front is because it provides more grip

I agree with the end of the video Kev! Get into the hobby before they are scared off by high end prices! Every hobby is expensive so it not bad in the grand scheme of things.

Mate the best cheap rc crawler I've ever bought is the ftx ravine it is so capable its mental for £100 I really dont think u can go wrong for price my sons absolutely love taking it out

I think you just like saying, "Devastator"... 😊

I suggest u add a “how to wall paper” book to that collection Kev lol. Just joking mate 😉

7:11 was it just me who cracked up when he said "last and least, the red devil"?

Could you switch the wheels from the A959B with these wheels? It seems that the 959 would run better with these wheels.

Can you make a video how to upgrade that black off road rc toys grade to a proper rc hobby grade? Or at least upgrade it so you can control the throttle and the steering? I have that rc but with a different model (the price must be same) and i wanna upgrade it...

I love them devastators wish i had 1

Hi kev! I got my first hobby grade rc car a few days ago! Any tips to keep in the best shape for longer?

Very cool! Love the vids!

Is it just me or is it that every time I watch his videos I buy another rc for the kid 😉

Whenever I watch kevs vids they always make me smile 👍

Have you done a review on scx24 1:24 scale. For the price $120 and it is hobby grade it is the most superior mini crawler. I have more fun with it than my scx10ii. The only thing I found it needed was the shocks lowered to the chassis to help clear the tire rub on the front fenders. To do that I had to drill small holes in the the chassis in the front. The rear had holes to use.

I need an expert option. I have a jlb cheetah. If I adjusted my camber too tight and the dogbones were seated too deep into the drive cups, would that be the cause of them bending?!

Got my son the white/green version of the "red devil" for Christmas. He's 3 and loves it.. I can't stand the thing🙄😅

I got the same set up on my crawler as the big offroad how do you make them water proof

The last minute of this vid is for real. Bought a WLtoys 12428 because I wanted to break things. Already broke things and fixed them now looking for upgrades to not break so much. Now I'm looking at higher end models. But I will say I love this car so far

It’s great to see more crawlers !! I’m coming to Paddlesworth and sending slash to the moon do you think I would be in the vid :)?

How do u make a hardcore suspension for extreme off roading

Right now on Banggood the devastator is about $70 to 80 which is not bad at all

Have u tried the mn-99 d90 Kev?

Funny one xmaxx tire is almost as big as the devistator but I think the devistator would do just fine outdoors too

HBX is really doing themselves proud. I own their 18859 and I’m about to buy a 2997a!

Dude try the axial scx24, tiny 24th scale crawler and it is really awesome :) I was wondering if I want to get into crawlers and this one makes me sure of it :)

Kevin you should get a Primal R/c Raminator I’m really curious about it but no one has any detailed reviews really

Hello kev was wondering if you would ever start up your own hobby shop?.

I just bought a Devastator, and very impressed, I'm thinking about buying two more

I have a question, I have an old radio shack RC truck 4x4, with a broken battery door, is it possable to take this heap, and turn it into something professional? if ya can, i will give it to you, i have no use for an rc that dosint work properly

Good video as usual kev, awesome, awesome,awesome

The red devil don't even have enough power to spin the wheel under a lil bit of pressure bc of that it gets stuck on everything bc the tire just stops and won't spin

What size wheel nut does it come with because I just got one

Hey kev just put a flysky radio and receiver to the off road rock crawler

Thank you for the links

When are you going to carry on with the petrol powered crawler?

How safe would you say it was ordering from banggood? I'm thinking you're not too worried since you feature a lot of products available there. By the way, it looks as though the Devastator is no longer shippable to the UK. Shame, as it's only £65 at the moment

You should modify the offroad one and make it good I think it has potential

I love your vids and for my birthday I'm getting a jlb cheetah 120 amp and a wltoys a979b and I'm going to put a 2000kv 6s motor in it. I got my first hobby grade at 5 it was a hpi maverick strada xb evo

Kev should I do crawling or drifting or bashing you choose hobby grade ones

kevin how much it takes to charge And what run time is Please

Kev, my man, where's the Scx24 and basher rocksta love??

Hi Kev. What is your opinion on the thunder tiger 1/12th Toyota Hilux as a budget crawler ?

Adoro seu canal cara parabéns assisto sempre que posso

I’m looking for the usb charger for devastour any one got a link

Wise words about barriers to entry. There is a market for the cheaper, crapper stuff.
