- This is the perfect beginner RC Car in my opinion and a great step up from the budget options out there.
Its excellent quality, strong, durable and although it's not as fast as some of the other beginner options out there it's a nice all round package.
Team Corally have done a great job with this new RC Car and it destroys the ARRMA Typhon 3s BLX in terms of build quality and features (IMO)
The Syncro4 shares 80% of its components with legacy vehicles making it much easier to find spare parts.
Team Corally have also improved on spares/parts availability and shipping is also much easier than before.
Lots of you complained last time saying it was too slow so today we fit the biggest pinion gear possible with the stock motor mount to see if it really can do the claimed top speed of 50mph!

All that was required was a bigger pinion gear to extract extra speed out of this awesome beginner buggy! See its super easy ;) See you on the next one!
Maybe they could include it in the box? Like Arrma does sometimes.
I like Team Corally very much. They seem to have found the best balance of price and performance across many models. They are very durable too, or at least in my opinion. at 300 quid for a 4s basher buggy I can't think of anything that gets close, Great car, Corally are making some serious waves in the market.
For anyone! If u do not want to make this hobb ya money pit and keep repairing and breaking stuff, go for a small pinion, get in the 2/3s lipo range with this buggy, get a nice heatsink for the motor and have fun. It is more rewarding and fun to invest in tyres and new body shell than on expensive electronic and blown up diff!
Totally agree with everything you said 👍
I totally agree as well. I'm a 50 year old guy who only got into the hobby 2 years ago, but I now have over 10 cars. I respect that different people want different types of enjoyment, but I'm happy with having my cars looking nice on the shelf and having fairly light runs with them on trails, in car parks, and on the beach.
I can't be arsed with bashing and thrashing and fixing. I enjoy them but respect them and have never had to replace any bits or service diffs, irrespective of whether it's a £200 FTX or a £600 Losi. As you suggested, the only things I have ever done is upgrade wheels and tyres.
Each to their own, but I'm very happy with how I use all of my cars.
Of course and for normal use i would 100% say stay with the stock pinion on 3s. 29mph will be enough for anyone starting out or just enjoying the hobby. This video was a test to see if the speed claims where true. At no point did i say anyone has to do this mod. I did say its probably worthwhile if the stock speeds are not doing it for some but on 17t i would advise against going off road to prevent heating up the motor. Can i also remind people that there is a 50% and 100% Speed Switch on the transmitter so even if you do fit a 17t pinion you can turn the power down which will make it easier to use/control.
@@beyondRC i understand, but sometimes people miss the point and start gearing up and overpower their rc, whining about how many times they broke down etc
Good advice! 👍
This is such a bargain for a larger buggy imo. There's so much potential for someone who's learning along the way or someone wanting to upgrade it straight from the door. If I ever decide to give up on my 8 wltoys cars I've built I'll definitely be looking at a corally car for sure!
Just bought my syncro. And fitted with a 15t staight out the box and on 4s got 46mph. Plenty fast enough and such awesome value for money buggy. I got mine for £297 new which just blows my mind for what you get for your money. Wasnt a team co rally fan after seeing reviews on there other products the past few years but man am i a fan now. Well done co rally.👏
Nice buggy! Hope to see ya in the next future rewieving the upcoming Mjx 1/10 that will be a 4s MT for only 250€!!!
Keep up the good work,ciao
will get one of those on the channel for sure!
Awesome! This was a very educational video and this rc is great
My complaining comment was posted first in the video, I feel honered😂 I just expected more from straight out of the box. They really did gear it down, I wasn’t aware it was a beginner buggy. It is a monster geared up.
It’s certainly aimed at people looking to take the next step up from a budget car. 👍
Just brought this RC what a beast.
agreed.
I have both a Typhon and a Radix. Despite the Radix being a much better platform I usually recommend the Typhon solely due to parts availability in the USA. If TC had better parts availability I would recommend them.
cool video, 17t woke it up, its become pretty common to have to pinion up to get top speed
Batteries and electronics are definitely an investment. In my projects I install electronics that are rated higher than necessary. They perform cooler and longer.
Another thing is battery connection and wire diameter. Think of them as a funnel for electricity. The bigger the wire the easier they can provide power. Almost every failure I have experienced was due to wire diameter, poor soldiering or under rated Batteries.
4s rigs are where these details become very important.
Great video cheers from Ohio
Awesome! I just got new losi 8ight-xe rtr to begin my RC racing season with
How is it. I'm on the fence between the Losi 8ight rtr, Typhon TLR roller and the Hobao Vs2 roller lol
oooo that VS2 is tempting!
@beyondRC Maybe you need to get the roller. Max8 sensored and Savox it up and get down to ARC Raceway or Badlandz Raceway.
See if you can keep up with the Teknos on the cheap lol
@@chrisvda7277 that's not a a bad idea at all!
@@chrisvda7277 It is absolutely amazing! 10 mph faster than the syncro 4 off road! I like beyond RC's videos though I'm not trying to take away from this video. The syncro 4 looks like a great idea Great Great RC car!
People need to understand that the manufacturers gear them for moderate performance and LONGEVITY of ESC & motor. Their concept is to provide reliable platform at a reasonable price so that the customer can develop their skills and grow in this hobby. High geared, overpowered RC’s break and require upkeep… thats why most get out of the hobby.
Yes exactly. People are very quick to call some cars slow without understanding the reason behind it. This was a point proving video to show firstly it can do the claimed speed and also educate people who didn’t know that a simple gearing change can bring lots more performance. Like you mentioned going faster can mean things break more which I wouldn’t recommend if anyone is brand new to the hobby. Leave it as it is out the box and enjoy it.
@@beyondRC great video!
I have the older Radix 6 running a legal for racing 4s battery .
19t pinion and a dynamite cooling fan body fitted with a surpass fan ( 26000 rpm allegedly ) .
Runs cool in summer ( Australia ) although not beginner car , but meeeh , whatever ...
Oops , reliable , almost forgot .
Really like that guys jacket!!!
😂😂
Yep, proper basher speeds now 😁 👍 nothing a fan can't cure in regards to heat as well! 🫡
100%
Team Corally is really nice looking, however here in the states it's hard to get parts for it.
Shame as i have seen they are pretty popular over there.
@@beyondRC that's the thing, I've never actually seen one at any rc meet I've been too. My local hobby store carried the Corally Punisher briefly and then poof no more team corally.
I've never had a problem getting parts
In my opinion, being disappointed about the out of the box speed of an RC and completely writing it off because of not changing the pinion gear, is like making pasta and being disappointed that it just tastes like cooked pasta. Next to no effort and it can become something amazing
This.
She's fast. I had the 3s it was ok I got tired of spur gears n axles shocks junk 3s typhone
personally i think it should've came with a 15T pinion from factory, would've given it more omph while maintaining its offroad capability
Very true. Kind of like the sweet spot
$699 here in Australia
Do a GBP, USD conversion
No parts on eBay and aftermarket parts.
Corally should have included a better motor mount in my pinion
a normal adjustable one would have done fine :)
Easy change easy speed gain. I can already see my self bolting it through a nearbu field
Any tracks near your location you can take it to?
Only ARC :/
Did you test the temps of the motor and ESC after gearing up?
nope. Corally would have more than likely done this themselves when testing the buggy and it would have been fine on 17t. This is why the motor mount supports 15t and 17t upgrade pinions comfortably. Its not massively over geared so i highly doubt temps would ever be an issue on 17t just not off road
A lot of manufacturers include all that too, but state it's for speed runs only. Corally didn't state that?
What is the price of this rc car
Really does depend where you are.
Whst would the price be in the us
@@Ethanstvchannel haha you know you can google it 🤪😛
Yeah😛😜🤪
It's geared out the box for bashing, if you bash with that gearing the motor is going to run extremely hot
For sure but this was an experiment to see if the speed claims where true. If its just bashing then of course stay stock 13t.
@@beyondRC definitely it's just letting folks know that it isn't suitable for normal running especially on a warm day without any motor fan. I didn't quite understand the reason you had to drill the holes out did something not line up or something and is that the same with the 15t which is probably a good sweet spot if you add a fan?
@@Luke-en2tk the holes are too small for the screws. Using smaller screws which do fit through the mount without drilling would work but the motor doesn’t support smaller screws. Weird one for sure
@@beyondRC ah yeah they messed up a bit on that, cheers for letting me know as I sell these cars in my shop is it the same with the 15t then or just the 17t? I had a thought could the motor not be rotated?
Those traxxas pinions get worn down pretty quickly especially on 6s. I prefer Tekno pinions with the m4 grubscrew on them.
its a 3-4s ESC no one is running 6s here. Max the electronics allow is 4s which i believe this pinion should hold up just fine :)

I’m sitting here with my Typhon 3s and now I’m wondering why I don’t have the TC😳
yep...
@@beyondRC I have had my Typhon 3s for years though… it’s never broke or given me one problem since I’ve had it. I only jump it 20 foot high and I’ve never hit any walls, curbs, or any sudden stops like that. I do bash it… I just bash smart.
That motor mount has really put me off. Why did you do that for. Corally. Wanted one till I see that. Great buggy, tho. Bit gutted if I am honest. Any recommendations on something as good? Anyone
the only reason i can think of was ease of use for beginners to get the mesh just right but in actual fact with the holes being different sizes its not exactly beginner friendly. Very odd.
@@beyondRC great review. That's exactly what I thought. Very strange 🤔 thankyou taking time out to reply. Do you know if the spark is the same
@@Rc.me.1 no worries. As far as i know the spark has a proper adjustable motor mount
@@beyondRC THANKYOU!
I'm sticking to Arrma for parts availability and the body style. But I must say Arrma is annoying me with the Smart battery proprietary stuff. Its starting to feel like Taxxas.
You don’t have to use spektrum smart batteries. Any IC5/EC5 (EC5 have Blue connectors) battery will work, and the spektrum charger will charge those batteries too.
@@AmpdRC I should have stated that I was speaking about the Typhon and Granite grom.
“Call it slow now.”
I didn’t comment on the first video, and I couldn’t care less, but since you requested it;
*That IS slow.*
A buggy that’s maxed out on its pinion, and it only eeks out 50mph on 4s? And what’s up with the plastic motor mount? TC usually give you metal all over the place, but they go plastic (albeit chunky) on a mount that is going to get hot……seems a poor design choice.
The Syncro looks stout and I’m sure it’s a great rc and fun to drive, blah, blah, but let’s not pretend it’s a fast one.
50mph on 4s is more than fast enough and certainly not a slow RC car.. this is also a buggy built with beginners in mind and 50mph speeds as a beginner will feel like a rocket 🚀 your also forgetting this is £315 not sure what the current price is where you are but that’s great performance for the price. Have a good one 👍
