  • Fast, tough and a great price point!
Color: 16890sa Green
I picked this up wanting to get back into RC trucks after being way for about 12 or so years. I wanted something that was ready to run out of the box, brushless and had good reviews, this was a great decision! First off, it's not really a toy for youngsters, unless you work with them first because this little truck can move! I plan to pick up some 3S batteries (which this little guy can handle) and see how fast this can go. It handles very well once you have a few minutes to play with it. I can't say anything about durability because I've been pretty careful, but other reviews say this will take a beating and keep going. Battery life is really good on the provided 2S batteries and it's range is also quite good. Be sure to read the manual and adjust the controls if needed on the remote, but mine ran great right out of the box. You'll have a good time with this little truck, I'd buy it again in a heartbeat! ... show more

  • Best value RC truck
Color: 16890a Yellow
I'll come straight to the point...these HBX trucks based on the venerable 16889 platform (or the smaller 1/18 platform) are the best value in RC. They are not the cheapest, but the combination of price with the quality of design and specification is unbeatable. The only bad news is that you cannot buy this one or some others, direct in the UK and have to buy on Amazon.com, which adds to the cost due to tax and postage. The latest 16890A shares its chassis and most running gear with the 16889A, with a slight difference to the top link in the rear suspension and the rear shocks being mounted to the rear of the shock tower and arms instead of in front. This new truck has a different truggy style body and a green-coloured brushless motor that is 3500Kv, instead of the 3800Kv of the 16889A. In theory this should allow more punch for acceleration and places less heat stress on the motor and esc, but I have no idea whether they have up-geared it to achieve the higher claimed top speed or not. The truck is constructed largely of an engineering plastic, which is perfect as this plastic grade is very elastic and reluctant to break. HBX seem to have nailed the formula here, achieving good rigidity for sound handling, but great durability. Metal chassis parts are NOT an advantage on such trucks as they add weight, can bend or snap and transfer impact energy to weaker components. The truck is plenty fast enough and wholly enjoyable on 2s battery power and the manual states 3s is not recommended, although many people do seem to use 3s. In use everything just works well with no hitches and great design. The remote is a great one with no lag, good feel, lots of adjustability, including a power knob, so you can dial down power when inexperienced or handing to a child. The on-off switch is perfectly positioned at the side of the chassis, so can be accessed with the body on....just so convenient. The oil shocks are well-tuned and give the ride quality the feel of a much bigger truck, with minimal hopping or bouncing, controlled landings and smooth progress over uneven ground. The driveline parts are all-metal and seem incredibly durable. I have several HBX trucks at this scale and nothing has broken or worn out. If anything does, parts can be sourced via Amazon, HBX or the large, Asian online market places. The provided wing and wheelie bar are easy to install and the lights come already installed. A couple of tips I would offer: Firstly, although the provided USB chargers work fine, if you are using LiPo batteries, you really should be able to do a proper, balanced storage charge when not using them for a while. They should not be left at too high or low voltage, as this presents a risk and can damage the batteries. Get a simple balance charger that will do storage charge. I also use a low voltage alarm and battery checker to keep an eye on voltage. You don't want to discharge a LiPo cell to 3V or below, so the cheap alarms available on Amazon offer some reassurance and can be strapped down on the battery when running. Secondly, I spray the chassis and running gear with GT-85 PTFE spray. This provides a dirt and water repellent finish that does not attract dirt like oil-based products. The solvent flushes out dirt and dust from moving parts on application, then dries to a sheen to both lubricate and protect. After running, I use a dust blower and then apply the spray, wiping where necessary and the truck comes up like new. ... show more

  • Buy it! Great value
Color: 16890a Yellow
Excellent car. Worth the money. Great car for a new user. You get a lot for the money. Not to fast as to make it hard to control but fast enough that you can do all kinds of tricks and go through grass and stuff at speed. Put bigger tires on it and it was even more fun. Recommend highly for the money. Also the oil filled shocks work very well for bashing.. Batteries were surprisingly good for there size. When I took them out of the box I was really concerned but they last very good and have held up well to lots of charges without a noticeable difference in there life. ... show more

  • Excellent Small RC
Color: 16890a Yellow
TL;DR: One of my favorite RC cars (and I have more than a few). Plenty fast, fun to drive and bash, durable, and a great value. Most common/desired upgrades are included. Great customer support. It is on the smaller side, part of the reason I like it. It is also hobby grade, meaning you can repair and/or upgrade it. Continue reading for more detailed review: Summary - This is honestly one of my favorite RCs. I’m finding myself loving these smaller scale RC cars. It’s small and easy to take with and bust out anywhere, and the batteries charge so fast (with a good charger). You don’t need a lot of space to run it, the controls (specifically speed limiting) allow kids to easily use it, and I’m not afraid that it’s going to hurt someone/damage property. And honestly, I have less reservation about driving it hard because it’s super durable and inexpensive. It’s perfect if you live in town or in urban/suburban settings. I own this model and the 18859A. I love the 18 for it’s small size, but if I could have only one, it would be the 16890A. The 16 has a better motor, better differentials, sturdier spur and pinion gears, and overall just seems more capable while only being slightly larger. Pros: very durable, no issues so far with some decent bashing. All metal drive train, including diff gears, cups, spur/pinion gears, and driveshaft/axles. Quality aluminum oil filled shocks. Strong brushless motor. Sweet looking body. Easy to work on/service, simple design. Comes with two capable LiPo batteries. Also comes with a set of paddle tires and some spare parts. Cons: the product pictures show diffs with four planetary gears, but they actually only have two; not a huge deal, but want to point out the inaccuracy and 4 would probably increase durability. Rear wing/spoiler breaks off pretty easily; attempted to reinforce it and it still broke off in less than a month. ESC is a weak point; works fine, but braking is almost nonexistent and there’s no programmability or way to adjust it. Chassis is cramped with a small battery tray, and bulkheads are integrated as part of the chassis. Third party support is almost nonexistent. Included charger is low quality (usable, but I suggest a full fledged balance charger that’s more capable). While it may have some shortcomings, for the price this RC is really hard to beat. I will update this review regarding durability in the future, but so far a month in this thing has held up to everything I throw at it (and I’m not holding back), and the only broken part is the rear wing. It’s great for in town and smaller spaces, but might not be the best choice if you have lots of open space and rough terrain. Overall I would buy it again and recommend it to anyone looking for a beginner rig, a smaller size RC, and/or a budget-friendly option. ... show more
