- Today we are going to upgrade everything on the MJX Hyper Go 10208 RC Basher Monster Truck! Willi it make it a better 1/10 scale basher than the Arrma Granite or Big Rock? Will it be a better deal than The Traxxas Stampede? Let's find out!

I really like that you take the cars apart before driving them. It’s important to know what we’re buying! You rock dude!
Yeah I'd be taking them apart either way so might as well bring you guys along for the ride :-)
Several months ago when I came across your videos I thought "man that guy can't land a jump to save his life"...Then I realized you were doing it on purpose as part of your evaluation...LOL!
Yeah I actually started putting more clips of me landing properly in my videos because so many people complained about my driving :-). You're right though I do crash intentionally a lot because most modern vehicles can handle a proper landing from pretty much any height. It's what happens when they don't land properly that matters!
i love how you take the cars apart before driving them. It really shows the quality of the car. Thanks man!
Glad you enjoy. This is the stuff I would be doing even if I wasn't recording so I'm happy to share it!
I love seeing you take everything apart, really helps me understand how things work. I really enjoy your vids!
Awesome glad you're enjoying :-)
You put out the most informative to the point videos. Awesome as always 😊
Thanks Glad you enjoy :-)
Glad to see this video make it out. Love the detailed analysis on how you upgrade. Thanks man!
Glad you enjoyed and thanks for watching :-)
i like that you gave this car a fair shot, no rc is perfect out the box and this platform seems solid as hell
I agree. I was not easy on this thing and it's pretty rare for a car to make it all the way through my evaluation without breaking at all.
I'd love to see some longer Arms added to this truck to make the stance wider and provide some better anti-tip performance. But time will tell what would work here for that. I love the 2997A arms on my 1/16 Hyper go
The Badlands do make it about an inch wider overall which does help but it is pretty heavily counteracted by the increased suspension down travel.
Great upgrades there, the hobbywing esc is my go to for 3s and 4s 1/10 cars, great budget esc, this car looks like a good deal here in the UK 👍🏻
Yeah it's hard to go wrong for the price. I keep a few of them on hand for just this sort of occasion.
You were really quick. I was not expecting this upgrade video sooner than a week
Yeah I was really curious to see how it would handle the extra stress so got right to it :-)
This! 😅
:)
Good upgrades. A guy could definitely do better than those Techno shocks but they did work & you had them on hand . The ESC really brought that rig to life. 42mph is plenty for a basher rig.
That servo would make a nice addition to almost any 1/10 scale running a stock servo from the big 2.
Yeah I'm sure there are plenty of options for shocks. These did work okay but are certainly not the best choice. I have no doubt someone else will come up with a better solution
I wouldn’t never consider buying this car- until this video! Hook me up with that sick servo! Lol
It's actually a pretty good in stock form too.
Looks like a blast, love when you can see the dust/dirt rip up through the grass like that at the beginning of the rip session lol looks so epic
Yeah I really like doing the slow-mo stuff!
Hoping to see other versions and designs with this size! Great review btw!
Yeah it'll be interesting to see what different styles they come up with using the same chassis.
This lil' truck is becoming more and more appealing to me after seeing your videos. And, at approx $250, it's a must have; I think I'm gonna replace my brushless E-Maxx with one of these and maybe an Omni Terminator.
Keep the videos coming.
Yeah this would be a massive step up in terms of durability from the emacs. I think it'd be a little bit smaller but a lot more capable
Nice, I've been eyeing off this MJX. Pretty keen now after watching this vid. Loving your work as always. Keep up the great work👍🏼
With the experience I have now on the truck I'd say it's definitely worth picking up especially at the aliexpress.
😢great video as always,I haven't came across any channel do what you do as far as taking every rc you test fully apart to show everyone the quality of the build and just proper maintenance. Keep the videos coming. Other people as well as my self learn something on all your videoos!!!!!
Glad you're enjoying and there's plenty more to come!
Beat me to it! Badlands and all 😂 That was super awesome, man!
Yeah it came out pretty sweet!
You should do it anyway 🤘I’ll watch it haha
Me too!
@@richiesavino9653 oh for sure! Hopefully Wednesday 😉
@@DoRC thanks! 😊
Thanks for doing the modifications to the truck. I may have to seriously consider one. Love the channel.
I'd recommend giving it a try. Even without the upgrades it's a pretty fun truck.
Hi Do
Watch you all the time.
When I have issues I look up your videos cuz you're so thorough about everything I can see everything and I don't have to take it apart
You have a lot of knowledge I enjoy watching all your videos
Awesome glad you enjoy!
That servo would be a great upgrade for my MonsterPede!
Sounds like a good use case. I'll be doing the giveaway soon.
I really enjoy the way you do the videos. Good explanations and showing details that helps the rc enthusiasts.
Yeah this is the kind of stuff I would be doing even if I wasn't recording so I'm happy to share it :-)
Dude your channel is great man i actually look forward for new vids to drop! Between the information and testing you do with these trucks it takes the guessing out of buying/upgrading our touys lol . One of a kind brother! I do need a servo btw the motor in my spectrum just hit tha dirt, go figure tho right! Take it easy
Awesome glad you're enjoying! I really love making these videos and interacting with you guys so keep watching and commenting :-)
I have beat the ever living snot out of my tekno SCT for years, like 60mph launches off ramps on asphalt and i have never broken a shock so it's impressive that you managed to! They do sell metal caps for them but i never saw a reason to do so. Perhaps it got twisted sideways by the a-arm during a bad hit and the upper rod end didn't have enough angular travel so the cap got wrenched off
Oh, and your videos are awesome. I've learned a few tricks from your channel so please keep on offering those little tidbits :)
Maybe though I'm not going to lie I've already popped a couple of these caps off on the MT-410 2.0. never had a problem on any of the others from tekno So not sure why.
Those bent shocks will probably be very common with the amount of flex that chassis has. All that plastic will bend a lot more than metal shocks. Might actually be a good candidate for some 3s Arrma plastic shocks.
I might agree except I popped the caps on the same shocks in their original vehicle which has an aluminum chassis. I think it's just a weakness of the shocks.
Great upgrade video, your vids are always great for seeing how it is to work on the rc👍
Also wanted to see the standing backflips that was shown on the promo video, either on stock or this lol, did you happen to do them accidently?
I tried in the dirt but wasn't successful. I think you need thicker center differential fluid. I'm guessing they had the center differential pretty much locked up in those test videos.
Those wheels are awesome, the way you can change the hex.
And I've changed all my cars over 1/14 scale to EC5 and it makes a difference! I always tape my battery leads when I cut each one.
I'd also love to win a servo😁
I'm surprised that EC5 would make much of a difference at that scale is those ESCs don't usually flow a lot of current but bigger is better.
I totally agree with you on the Amazon servos, they are somewhat powerful, but very slow. Still worth the money
Yeah I think it just depends on what you're sensitive to. I'm so used to fast servos that I find I actually have trouble controlling the vehicle when the servo is too slow because it always feels like I'm fighting it.
Great video as usual and i like what you did with thing! Looks like a beast! i was happy to see that esc you used as I've been considering grabbing one of those combos for quite a while now 😅
It's not a perfect ESC but I think it's the best value for money on the budget side.
Excellent video, great info, not too short or long. Keep on rolling.
Will do!
Awesome video man I love watching you take them apart. Thanks for doing the giveaway and Good luck to everyone
Glad you enjoy!
Another great video. Always looks forward to your videos. Very informative.
Thanks Glad you enjoy!
Looks good. Will be interesting to see what the actual actual final version of this ends up looking like, v2 or 2.1 or otherwise.
What you saw in the original video is the final version.
The gorilla clear dbl sided tape is real sticky . Super sticky . I still haven’t had any issues with the red m3 kind you used . Great build as always 👍. I ll bet them badlands made a world of difference .
Yeah I'm sure there are other options for double-sided tape. The bulk of my experience has been with VHB and I've had Good luck with it so I've never really tried anything else
The gorilla stuff is so strong, when I needed to remove it, I had to have a heat gun and a big thin spudger and a lot of time and patience. That stuff is nuts on porous surfaces at least.
Ooh, love the new shocks! Haven't seen it rip yet, so hopefully they work as good as they look
Yeah they're not too bad.
Love your videos, great to learn a lot about the hobby and the tech behind it
Glad you enjoy thanks for watching :-)
Best video yet on the MJX Hyper Go 10208. Too much misinformation out there on this model. Personally, at the current price point, I would give this model a miss. Better out there already.
Well hopefully the information I'm giving you is accurate. I'm getting it straight from MJX so it should be. Overall I think this is a pretty good deal. Especially at the $260 AliExpress price it undercuts a lot of the competition and has a lot to offer.
@@DoRC You're doing a great job as always fella. I actually un-followed a channel the other day regarding this car and the misinformation being spread out there.
@@rcfools I'm glad you're enjoying!
Nice little truck. First upgrade video I've seen. 😊
Yeah it's only been out a little while.
Thanks for the vid, very innovative upgrades! 😁
Thanks Glad you enjoyed!
Top notch Sir thank you ! Appreciate the upgrades so fast and the chance to win a servo 🙏
Glad you enjoyed the drawing will be soon!
Not going to win the giveaway but that’s ok. These upgrades really woke this RC up. Should have came out the box this way. If so I would already own one.
The upgrades are cool but I still recommend it even in stock form. Especially at 260 bucks from AliExpress This is a cool car.
Nice vid. Really like that Servo! 7:22
Glad you enjoyed the drawing will be soon.
Awesome upgrades love the video. That servo looks good. Thanks for the opportunity to win
Glad you enjoyed :-)
I always replace plastic servo horns with the same ones you do. I also just finished modding my No Cry driver per your instructions. It's perfect now. Thanks for that.
Nice! Glad the screwdriver mod worked for you.
Man the more times i see this truck in action the closer my finger gets to squeezin the trigger on purchasing one.😮😂
Honestly at the price you can get them for on AliExpress I really think it's worth getting. This thing's a little tank and even stock it's a lot of fun.
keep up the good content man love watching your vids have a good 4th of july
Thanks you too!
Great video. I always learn something from your videos. I’m going to try one of those servo horns you mentioned on a hammer rey to see if it improves handling…🤞
It may or may not. In this case the stock servo horn was physically loose which meant that it would never center the same way twice but if the servo horn you already have doesn't have any problems upgrading it probably isn't going to make much difference. That being said it's a cheap thing to try so go for it :-)
Thanks for another great video and build
You're welcome thanks for watching!
i been waiting on that truck i was pumped when it dropped then all the v1 v2 stuff so ill wait lol thanks for the great vid and awesome chance
Well according to my contact at MJX what you saw in the original video and what the other reviewers have is what they are shipping. They're is no V1 or V2 it's just this version.
@DoRC yea i cant afford any new rc at this point in life and im ok with that keeping a roof over my family's head is the most important thing to me right now hit a really rough spot in life and pretty much had to sell most of my rcs off 30 + years of collecting is all but gone i have 4 trucks left that are all up for sale still but gotta do what i gotta. Thanks.
That car is badass with those upgrades it’s came alive
It's pretty fun out of the box too but yeah this definitely woke it up
Team corally for the win! Mjx stepping things up tho.
TC definitely has been making moves lately!
Hi! Great video! Your channel is one of the best IMO. Wish you had much more cars to review and bash ) Well, the sweet part kinda ends here ) To be honest, I'm kinda tekno-boy, sooo I got my s burning, when you say tekno shocks aren't up to the task. You're supposed to have the droop screws so the shocks do not overextend. Maybe that's why the caps blow off )
Yeah it's possible but to be fair I have also had the same thing happen on the MT-410 2.0 with the droop screw set correctly so I think It's a weak point with the shocks.
@@DoRC fair enough ) well yes, plastic shock caps often don't stay on anyway. One of possible reasons, ithink, that droop screws get pushed through the arms. The stiffer the springs - the faster.
@@T0x1c0v3r Yeah it's entirely possible but I will say that I've had lots of other cars with plastic shock caps that didn't fail. It is a little disappointing to have such a fundamental thing be a weak point on such an expensive car.
@@DoRC Tekno's are commonly very good for racing, but when they do a "basher", it's always the same lightweight racing parts. One of the best options is to sell the light parts, when they are still new and get tougher part
@@T0x1c0v3r oh yeah for sure. They're just really weren't very many tougher parts available when I got my MT410 2.0. I pre-ordered it and put it together the first few days it was out. I haven't really messed with it a whole lot since then. Tekno has aluminum shock caps available.
Awesome upgrades 👍
Thanks :-)
Thank you very much for doing this video bcuz I've just bought this monster truck 188$ and I was a little spectacular,, but with all your videos I'm sure i did a great buy,,,, thanks for sharing,,,and new Sub here
Glad you enjoyed!
Nice review, I'm glad to see all hex hardware but I'm still leery of these Chinese brands. You can get a Maverick Quantum2 Flux for $275 at Amain Hobbies vs $250 and waiting for the slow boat from China. The earlier Maverick Quantum trucks had some issues from what I've seen, but the newer versions have been fixed apparently which is why Amain is willing to sell them now. Would love to see you do a review of a Maverick Quantum2 Flux and compare to this MJX.
Stay tuned. I've got the new pre-ordered. I kind of missed the boat on the monster truck so I'm excited to get this one.
Thank you for the detailed explanations
Thanks for watching!
i especially enjoy hearing you talking! Your tone is fun, energetic and passionate!
Thanks glad you enjoy!
Great upgrades. Same esc I’m putting into hbx 2995.
It is probably the best budget ESC you can get.
Love the info you provide on this channel
Yeah I would be doing all this stuff on my own anyway so I might as well share it :-)
epic video, youre very well spoken and easy to watch.
Thanks Glad you enjoyed :-)
Some nice upgrades mate 😊
Yeah it's really decent stock but this definitely wakes it up!
I don't think I have any shocks that fit mine, at least, none that I've found yet, but I did extend track width and switch to 17mm hexes to use thos same tyres you used in this video. I might also try and switch out the ESC as well and probably the servo as well while I'm at it. 🙂
The taller tires and wider stance will give you effectively more suspension travel so that might be all you need. I did find that the hobby wing ESC really woke it up. Let me know how it goes!
Love that you did this but I'm surprised at the price, having to upgrade that much is a lot to make an ok car acceptable
The upgrades were fun but I don't think they're necessary. This truck is actually pretty good right out of the box.
Cool upgrades. Always get nervous wiring up lipos. 😂 not had an issue so far.
Yeah the part where you've got one pin done and your soldering the other one on always gives me a little bit of the pucker factor. I've made contact a few times and it's pretty spectacular.
@@DoRC QS8’s are the worst. Plus you’ve got 500 in the lipo. 😫😫
Amazing video to the point thanks for doing it
Thanks for watching!
It's looking the way it should comes. Good job bud.
It's actually pretty good out of the box but these upgrades did definitely change how it handles!
@@DoRC I'm glad the rear cvds held in an not pop out. Good job again bud.
Awesome mod, love the detail and knowledge
Glad you enjoyed and thanks for watching :-)
Love your videos brother keep up the great work
Thanks Glad you enjoy!
Like the upgrades cool truck love your videos
Glad you're enjoying and thanks for watching!
This is what RC is all about, 60% of buyers will be perfectly happy with an RC out the box, meanwhile the other 40% of us will swap out everything we don't like & fit something else to make it do what we want it to.!
I'm usually in the 40% btw.!
I often start swapping things before I even put a lipo in, especially if it's not a crawler & comes brushed.! 😉 😉 😁😁
Cheers mate, another fantastic video.!!
(I just watched your Associated Hoonitruck video from a couple of years ago, you've really come a long way with your channel, it's awesome to see.!)
Stay safe out there mate & the very best wishes from Scotland 🏴 🙏 ❤️ 📻 🕹️ 🔋 🚗 🚖 🚕 🚔 🚚 🚙 🚘 🚓 🚒 🚑 🚐 🚎 🚤 🚁 🛩️ 👍 👍 👍
Yeah it's crazy watching some of those older videos. I would hope after 250 videos I've gotten better :-)
@@DoRC You have mate.!! 👍 👍 👍
Your's has become one of my favorite RC channels nowadays.!
Right up there with Tomley, Kev, Beyond, Razor, Thunder, RC Driver, Raz, RC Kicks & the rest.!! 👍 👍 👍
Your enthusiasm, passion & knowledge is just bursting out of every video.!!!
I'd like to tell you something about myself just now...
I'm disabled & I suffer from pretty bad PTSD, anxiety disorder & depression, because of that I often struggle to do things for fun...
My illness dominates my mind, I get wrapped up in negativity & from where my head is often at, it's hard to imagine going out, enjoying myself & having fun.!!
The distance from feeling depressed & negative to feeling care free & positive often seems unimaginably huge without any way of even getting there.!!!
This is where people like yourself provide a valuable service to people like me... A service that you probably have no idea that you're providing.!
Watching positive & fun videos like yours can sometimes be what it takes to get me feeling better about myself to the point of putting my boots on, grabbing an RC or two or three 😉 & going outside.!!
I see YOU bashing an RC, I look across the room at MY RCs & I'm able to imagine myself doing the same thing & that distance often doesn't seem so huge.!!
Sometimes I'll come back in after only a short time because I just couldn't find my Mojo, but that's okay because I can still tell myself that "At least I tried" & I feel just that little bit better about myself.!!
That in & of itself is an achievement.!!
But other times I'll go out after feeling terrible & have an ABSOLUTELY AWESOME TIME.!!! 👍 👍 👍😁😁😁
For that my friend.. I absolutely thank you from the bottom of my heart.!!
I feel it's important to give thanks & credit where it's deserved & you deserve it mate.!
THANK YOU SO MUCH.!
Please stay safe out there & the very best wishes from Scotland 🏴 🙏 ❤️ 📻 🕹️ 🔋 🚗 🚖 🚕 🚔 🚚 🚙 🚘 🚓 🚒 🚑 🚐 🚎 🚤 🚁 🛩️ 👍 👍 👍
Seems quite a good rig! Like someone already said, you were really fast on the upgrade! :p
Well there were two reasons for that. The first one is that I really wanted to get it done but the second one is that I actually delayed release on the first video until I heard back from MJX. I didn't want to give you guys bad information.
@@DoRC thoughtful of you. Thanks!
I try thanks for watching :-)
Also, i think it is always good to know the weight of the car. IMO there must be about 1s per kg to have some good fun with a monster/stunt truck style car
Good call. I need to start weighing them and putting it in the videos.
Sweet machine , cheap basher and durable 😊 MJX for the win . I reckon those expensive company’s are going to be losing some serious dollars now 😅
Maybe though it seems like it takes a long time for new companies to gain traction in the hobby. TC has been making some really good cars they've got strong aftermarket support and they've been doing it for a while. They're just now starting to seemingly be taken seriously by The mainstream in the hobby.
Another killer video brother.... do they make aluminum caps for them shocks might be a good option if they do and you really want them shocks on it
They do they just weren't available when I first got the kit and I haven't gotten around to really messing with it since putting it together. It's just been sitting on a shelf until I grab the shocks for this video. I have them ordered now
It seems it needs longer control arms with the longer shocks
Eh maybe but I feel like you could just keep changing parts out until you had a completely different truck. To be honest this thing's fun right out of the box. None of these upgrades really needed to be done. That being said the proline tires do make it about an inch wider overall from the stock tires so that's similar to increasing the arm width.
Love the vids keep them coming
Awesome glad you're enjoying :-)
I guess I am going to have to get me one of these. I was worried about the ride hight but after seeing this it's kind of a simple fix! Give me that servo!
Yeah it seems to handle the extra down travel pretty easily though The best way to increase ride height in my opinion is just to go with bigger tires. The 2.8 Badlands seem like a great option.
@DoRC great entertaining video btw!
That came out better than I expected
Yeah I figured most of the upgrades would be great but I was pretty skeptical about the shocks. I wasn't sure I was going to find a set that I already had which would work properly but they seem good other than the fact that they broke :-)
@@DoRC I’m actually modding a Losi mini non prep to be a dirt racer. Any advice to keep the ball ends clipped in?
@@lu22334 Not really unfortunately. If they are coming apart the best thing to do would be to either find a substitute that would be stronger or if you could figure out some way to screw the ends in instead of using the ball end so that you give it a washer on top of it to prevent them from coming apart That might work.
Awesome tire choice. Looks way better
Yeah definitely has better air control as well. Don't get me wrong the stock tires are very good but these do feel better especially for stunts.
Nice upgrade. Maybe V2 can have these applied ;)
Maybe but I will say that even this release version is pretty darn good out of the box.
Great video as always!
Thanks :-)
The car looks pretty cool after the modification
It's actually pretty good even before the mods.
Great video, could you provide the measurements of the Tekno shocks? I wasn't able to find the information online. Since the MT410 shocks are quite expensive I would like to search for other compatible shocks...
Extended there about 106 in the rear and 96 in the front
Awesome video man!
Thanks Glad you enjoyed!
I’m waiting for arrma to drop the new exb’s I can’t keep up with every other company’s releases 😅 this truck looks fun I like the black and red reminds me of exb lol
I'm pretty happy with the design of it. It seems like these companies are finally starting to realize that they don't need to just plaster a bunch of random crap all over the outside of their cars. Definitely looks better
Hey hey hello.!! just want to thank you again for the Suzuki Jimny giveaway. I could use that for an upgrade😂
Glad you're enjoying!
Great video dude keep it up...
Thanks glad you enjoyed :-)
Nice upgrades. Contemplating this or outcast v2.5
I'd say it depends on what you already have. If you're buying your first basher or a truck that's going to be your primary basher I would say get the outcast. It's a great truck and parts and upgrades will be more readily available. If you already have some cars and you're just looking to experiment with something new I'd say get this. It's cheaper and pretty fun.
Looks like a mean little truck
Yeah overall I'm pretty impressed with it. It's not perfect as I outlined in the first video but it's definitely good.
Really quite enjoy your vids
Awesome Glad you're watching and thanks for commenting!
Thanks for the contest!
Thanks for entering :-)
Gonna do this to mine for sure when I get it!
It's definitely a fun upgrade!
Running gtr shocks and badlands on my stampede 4x4 vxl great setup
Yeah I really like these Badlands. I've put them on a lot of different vehicles and I don't think I've ever been disappointed in them.
Great video 🤘🏻
Thanks!
You need to show me how to just snap those ec5 together lol
It depends on which ones you get. These are a mass brand I got on Amazon and they snap in very easily from the back like shown in the video. I've heard from people though that there are other versions out there that are almost impossible to get together.
Great videos
Thanks!
I think that servo could be great for my Redcat Machete.
Yeah it would probably be a decent step up from stock.
Could you do a video on differential fluid and effects? I don't have a full understanding of the effects, thickness, and types of l7brication you have used in different builds.
I wouldn't mind doing one but I don't think I'm the best person for it. I am pretty tolerant to different suspension and differential tuning and I don't have a lot of experience doing fine tuning like a racer would. I usually just kind of throw whatever feels right in there and deal with the consequences :-)
That truck definitely looks way better 👊🏼👍🏼
Yeah it is pretty sweet. The stock car is also good though.
@@DoRC yea it definitely did look pretty good !! Definitely some great work and information you’ve putting out
@@JOHND_RC Glad you enjoyed :-)
@@DoRC I always do !!
:)
Ohh that definitely improves it to be better
Overall I would agree. The extra ground clearance is nice though it is more prone to tipping over in turns now.
