That is an amazing platform!! It is as good if not better than than I expected!! Great video Evan!!
Thanks Brad!!
Is definitely one of the most durable budget RCs out there, especially over 1/16 scale. Love it!
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! I WANTED TO SEE 3S!!! I WAITED SO LONG!!! 😢😢😢
🤣 wow this comment got some likes 🤣
I didn’t want to burn up the esc using it “improperly” for the review video. Don’t worry I’m working on this next video as fast as possible 🤣🤣
@@DerbyCityRClol awesome 👍 great video as always though!
@@DerbyCityRC you should make a video comparing this 2996 on 3S against your brushless 2995! Something tells me the 2995 is faster because of your setup. I'm just really hoping this 2996 has better diffs, not that the originals are that bad. They're great, but I want a brushless 3s-4s setup with 1/10 crawler wheels and stronger diffs that can handle it.
Yes I do this comparison on this next video and….well…. I’m a bit shocked! Lol
I personally have yet to have a single failure out of any of these diffs. And you’ve seen what I’ve done in my past 2995 vids 🤣. These things are amazing!
Just ordered it just because of your review! Thanks from Germany!!
Awesome! Hope you’re loving it!!
FINALLY! Been waiting on your review for this ever since you teased us! 😂
Haha! Hope it was worth it 😃
Great review as usual on your channel. Thank you for your time and for sharing all this fun with us. Regards from Belgium.
Thanks man!!!
Dude, love your videos. Super fun and great editing you've got going on.
Thanks!!
How am I supposed to sleep at night knowing that green terror is on the loose! Seriously, though, you keep outdoing yourself! Genius. Max's response was priceless. And god damn, if this truck isn't awesome. Potential is sky high, can't wait to see where you take it.
Haha! I know man! It was in my own back yard!
Had me cornered in my own shop! Good thing he bonked his head on the bug zapper and ran off…for now.
Ya the truck is great and can’t wait to get this next phase of it out!!
Great vid once again! You guys rocked it 🤙🏼
Thanks! We’ll keep ‘em pumpin!
Ohh by the way, your vids are my favorite out of all I watch!
Affordable cars being my favorite ones.
That’s awesome to hear!! Glad you like them ma!!
Awesome review Evan looks like this one's a keeper.
Thanks. I agree she’s a good one!
3s that beast!! Let the Mad One do a flip test!! Great video‼️👍👍🦾🦾
Seems it’s gonna happen 🤣😃😃
Another great job Evan, Its hard to beat the 2995. I did a complete upgrade to mine and it is simply awesome .I spent the extra and did a Spectrum 85a upgrade package, total Beast. Those 2995 vids got me hooked. Thanks again for your time with this review
Awesome man. Ya I bet the Spektrum kit is even crazier than the Hobbywing. Nice thing about the Hobbywing kit is the esc fits in the original space and I don’t believe the Spektrum does, but I’m having a hard time finding the Hobbywing sets anymore.
Glad you like the vids man!!!
@@DerbyCityRCwhat is the exact hoobywing specs for the hbx 2996a?
The one I used in my 2995 (same chassis) was a 3300kv Max10 EZRun combo. Esc was 60 amp I do believe.
@@DerbyCityRC can i use it with dumborc remote and reciever X6fg?
Great review! I believe the ESC is 35 amps. I got excited when I heard HBX came out with a 1/10 scale thinking it might actually be a standard 1/10 size. Looks like a great durable truck though. I do wish it had a bigger battery tray and higher amp esc.
It’s funny because they call the 2995 a 1/12 scale. But I guess the bigger wheels crossed the 1/10 scale line lol.
Yes it would have been nice if they did something for the battery tray. Surely they’ve heard that complaint on several occasions. And making it 3s capable should have been a no brainer lol we’ll
Find out if it can take it lol!
@@DerbyCityRCI found solution for battery get 2500mah x2 double tape an buy parrallel wire
Ya that’s pretty much what I did in my 2105a video 😃
Let's see the comparison with the 2995! I love my lil 2995 and I'm always excited to see what you do with yours!!
Oh it’s being filmed as we speak!
Definitely looking forward to getting this one done!
this channel got me hooked man. i love your chokes hehe :D . please do everything with the 2996a what comes up to your mind. i have to go bashing know. thanks for your videos man!
That’s great to hear!
Glad you enjoy it and bash away!!
Tank certified by the Mad Man himself‼️👍👍🦾🦾
He knows his tanks!!!
hopefully, the wait was worth it! HBX doesn’t strike out much. I love anything 1/12. My ahi Bao Hyper TT is a dope 1/12 as well.
Ya they make a heck of an RC!
It could use a bit more top speed but it’s on par with its class for sure. Has much better durability and handling than most though!
Awesome video! 👍 Not many lower budget rc's with center diff, only other one i know of is the Bezgar hm202 but that is smaller at 1/20.
Thanks! I love me some center diffage! I’ll have to look at that bezgar! Sounds cool!
Definitely wanna see the comparison!
And see it you shall!!
I absolutely love mine 🤩
It’s a great truck!!
Clean RC fun 👍👍👍
Thanks!
12:15 🤣❤️ thats why i love your videos ❤️❤️
Haha! Yes I love that part 🤣
Just ordered one 👌🏼
Awesome, you’ll love it!!!
Thanks man 👌🏼 It was purely down to your awesome review of it and its durability that doesn’t break the bank 😉
Glad I could help!!
Hope you’re already enjoying it!
@@DerbyCityRC it’s just arrived today. Can’t wait to take it out!
Awesome test. Realistic test of how the average rc owner will punish them. 🤘
Thanks man!
Great video man
Thanks!!
Awesome truck and review as always from both you and hbx!!!!! And 3s please!
Is it really 1/10 scale? Cuz it looks to be more of a 1/12
Thanks!! I address the vehicle scale size in like the first 10 seconds of the video lol
And I tried it on 3s in the very next video where I compare this to my upgraded 2995.
@@DerbyCityRC Oh nice! And sorry though, my bad for not paying attention in the beginning of the video. Thanks
Haha! It’s all good, but ya it’s basically a 1/12 scale with slightly larger wheels.
If they came out with a true 1/10 of this car, that would be amazing!
Awesome review! Yes 3s plz! 🤪👍🔥
Thanks!
3s is coming!!!
Great vid as always 3s 3s 3s do it do it do it👍
Thanks!
3s will be done for sure!
Nice! Great vid, I am game to try 3s! FYI in my centre diff on the Bezgar HM 101 there was a bit of Greece in there, but not much
Good to know. Just opened the center diff on my original 2995 and dry as a bone!
Gears are in perfect shape though so added some 100k fluid!
Brand new F &R diffs had grease in them. Lol
awesome as usual :)
Thanks!! 😃
Great video, buddy! It's a cool truck, but a bit of quality control might have been in place... I received my FC610 just a while ago, it had one shock completely with the cap tilted and another shock had leaked all the oil... Oh well, they are cheap and I was going to change those shocks anyway... Looking forward to get started on it, so obviously I won't need this one... I got the 14th scale ordered... Pretty excited about that one...
Yes I agree. Things like that happen to all of them.
Ya I also have the new 1/14 coming and looking forward to it!
Yess to 3e off course!!!
It will be done!!
Has anybody found an upgraded servo that fits in without a whole lot of modification? I got a 2996a recently and the only thing I don't really love is the quite weak/slow steering, but having trouble finding an alternative servo so far.
Great video! Would love to see it on 3S!
Thanks!! The people hve definitely spoken and 3s will happen!
@@DerbyCityRC I bought the 16889a Pro because of your videos and this might be my next RC depending on how it does on 3S and if the ESC can handle it.
Ya man we will see! I’m definitely happy with it so far!!
I am happy with the budget.
Me too!!
Nice to see you got one, are the gears any different from the flyhal and 2995?
Thanks. I don’t know for sure, but I don’t think they’re different. Been too long since I’ve run my 2995, but definitely seems similarly geared to the FC.
Hi, first of all, your videos are great.
I bought the HBX 2996a 2 months ago. A great car that is a lot of fun.
Since a few days I have the problem that the car becomes uncontrollable. It reverses without using the remote control. I think you have described a similar problem. Do you have a solution to this problem?
Many thanks in advance for your feedback.
damb it your vid just cost me $265 AUD LOL. I just went camping with one of my kids we took the HBX 16899A PRO and had a ball with it, my first electric rc car. I used to have nitros as a kid these things are nuts in comparison they just go! Thanks for the vid!
purchased from your link to banggood hopefully it was an affiliate link
Haha! Sorry!
Glad you love the 16889 and hope you’re loving the 2996a. It’s an awesome truck!
That is for using my link as yes it’s an affiliate 😃😊
Whooo hooo at 6:12 one little oopsey on the steering wheel and hang that landing left and there’s an … um…. interesting episode ending. Lol
lol ya man that kid will just freakin appear out of nowhere. He’s been talked to several times about it. Hasn’t been an issue lately lol
Hello, just need a quick tip.
When i accel the front wheels tend to spin more cause i can see they balloon more than the rear. I have a feeling its more FWD over all.
When i free spin the rear wheel by hand they spin for almost 10 sec.
Does that mean the rear diff is too loose and i need thicker diff oil to avoid FWD¿??¿
Good to see Theo Vaughn living his best life.
🤣😃😃
This channel has been absolutely unreal for learning and transparency when it comes to reviewing so many different rc’s! My question regarding the 2995/2996/2996a trucks, if the plan is to upgrade electronics, motor and suspension (even on the 2996a), are they all identical otherwise? Would there be any reason to go with the 2996a? Or would spending more and moving to the 2997 make sense? Thanks!
Thanks man I appreciate this!! 😊
So if your plan is to upgrade, the best bet would be the 2995 here: amzn.to/3IOEHgH
In my opinion, it’s the best looking, the cheaper option since you’re gonna scrap the electronics anyway, and it’s almost exactly the same. Difference being the tie rods are plastic and not adjustable like on the 2997a. The 2997a electronics are decent and so far seems to take 3s no problem but I did get a faulty motor out of the box on my last one, but of course that could happen to any car.
Also the 2995 tires are garbage and would want to be upgraded quickly. But the 2997a tires aren’t extravagant either lol.
Thanks for the quick response and awesome info, I forgot to say the tires would be swapped no matter what! I know you have a hobbywing combo in your 2995 but I can't recall seeing if you've posted a speed test on 3s in that truck, unless you did in the RTR vs upgrade comparison with the 2996a?? If you have, that's my bad lol One additional question, the summers get pretty hot where I am, would there be any merit to replacing the motor and ESC to be 4s capable with a mid 2000kv motor to run even more efficient and cooler? There are just so many great deals on motor and esc setups these days and that center diff has me locked on this chassis! @@DerbyCityRC
Well donnd very responsible Video my friends! 😝Awesome truck, and tougher the fake nails! This thing rocks😝! I do agree with you Evan on the body style. Wish they would of come up with something different instead copying the 610 . Maybe offer something different and original. Any way , this was a very well done review brother. Hello to the family!👋🏻✌🏻😎😝
Thanks Robby and hello to all of you as well!! Definitely a fun truck and looking forward to releasing this comparison I’m doing!
Think ima get this for friends that wanna try out rcs an this way they won’t wreck the more expensive ones…
It’s a good choice for that!
Awesome video s
These one an 2997a don't wheelie tho
@owen8538 that’s cuz they have a center diff. More controllable!
You could always put thicker fluid in the center diff and it will wheelie for days!
Thanks!
@@DerbyCityRC what is length on the 2996a and 2997a
Waiting for you to do some rc soccer...might be the next big thing! Lol
You can put the esc from hbx 901 than you can use 3s same transmitter. But can you withe the center diff make wealyys?
I didn’t have much luck with the 901a on 3s. And with these tires being bigger I don’t think it would work for long unfortunately
hi dude, just got my 2996A, can I use 3s Lipo batt..please advice..thanks
Is the center differential so important. That I should get that truck over something like a granite 3s, horizon hobby has 50 bucks off the vortex and the granite 3S right now
If you can swing it i wouldn’t choose this over the granite. I may be getting a vorteks soon but I definitely love my granite. Center diff is a big deal for me but the granite is a beast!
This looks awesome!! Would this be a good choice for a budget rc car? Can it be upgraded if I wanted to?
Yes this is an excellent choice. And yes it can be upgraded amazingly! My next video will be comparing it to two of the same cars that I have upgraded at different price points.
Not bad for such a cheap rc. Thanks for the video. There's another version that is 3s capable from what I understand, but it's another company.
Interesting I haven’t seen a 3s version. Could be Bezgar as they just slap their name and a different body on all the other companies cars lol. Sometimes they through their own motor at it but it’s probably the same one and just say you can use 3s lol
@@DerbyCityRC I think that you are right. And it's smaller than the RC here. I think it's the one that comes with like 3s lipo that looks like a brick?
Hard to say, but very possible!
what is that? I'm looking for a car of this size with 3s capacity and better battery capacity
@aitorgonzalez5663 honestly this car is pretty unbeatable. My suggestion is get this and just upgrade the esc. That’s what I’ll be doing as the motor shouldn’t have an issue on 3s (probably).
What will thicker fluid in the differential do for you? And when you say "thicker", what weight will you use?
It will slightly strengthen the connection between front and rear wheels. And I’ll use 100k fluid. The video I made after this one with this car comparing to a similar car that I upgraded shows the difference
Hey, I would love to see the 2996a on 3S, I hope it comes soon!? 👍🏻👍🏻
Yup soon. I’ve got a new esc for it 👍
Hey with the standard hbx 16889 can you combine 2. 1000mah batteries to get longer run time or will it burnout your servo thanks Eric
That should work just fine. I actually just ordered some connectors to do that very thing!
Hey Derby, do you know where I can find a top mount that will fit a normal sized 20kg servo upgrade? Currently, I am only able to use 2 screws and it is going to break eventually. I recently purchased a 3d printer and I was actually able to take a picture of it using SelfCAD and print a copy of it, but modifying it so its a bit bigger, I am having trouble with. I am way to new to 3d printing software currently.
Unfortunately I don’t know of one yet. I have zero 3D print experience too. Lol
I may eventually get one though!
Hi do you know the cut off charge voltage for these original packs is it 8.4 normal as 2s
I’m not quite sure actually.
Which ones better or more recommended? This one or the hbx 16889?? Need one for speed/taking off durable
This one is more fun in my opinion. Its bigger, faster, has better handling, and similarly durable, but it is day the 16889a pro is slightly more durable only because it’s lighter.
I am torn between buying this one and the 16889a pro, which one should i buy? Is the included battery on this one enough to not buy it?
I like this one more. The 16889a pro probably has it beat on durability due to the fact it’s smaller, lighter weight and slightly slower, but both are awesome. Have you seen my video comparing this 2996a to my upgraded 2995? I put bigger tires on it and thicken the center diff fluid and it’s just awesome!
My 2995 is still my favorite. Fully upgraded. Still too much to handle. Got it set on 40% just to drive.
It’s my favorite budget RC too. I have a Hobbywing Max10 3300kv in mine and it’s a monster
@@DerbyCityRC I pretty sure there is a small cult around the 2995. I run a 80a surpass hobby with 3650 4200kv motor.
Hoping to grow that cult!
So 3s won't work on stock electrics, but will the rest of the car take it if the electronic bits are upgraded? Can they handle the POWER?
@@daveeltringham8695 yes it will.
My current setup is
80 amp esc
3660 brushless 4650 kv with 5mm shaft. Absolute size limit
17t mod .6 pinion gear
15mm wheel spacer.
Dumbo control and reserve combo.
Top hoonage ma dude now wack that 3s in and let's party! 👍😜
Thanks! Oh it’s happening!!
For my hbx 18816a pro what is a good 3s batter for the truck?
I don’t have that model so hard to say for sure. I usually just try to find the measurements on the Amazon or whatever site listing and measure my battery tray.
Do you think they will start selling theses on Amazon . I like the 903A but like the bigger tires on the 2996a
The 2996a is far superior to the 903a. I have a video showing my reasons, but they do have the 2997a on Amazon. Have you seen that one?
amzn.to/47WGoD3
Looks really cool nice clip.. I did have a question though how would you say this compares to a arrma granite or traxxas stampede?
Well it doesn’t compare to a granite lol. Obviously this one is about half the price, but The granite is an animal of massive proportions, but wait until you see my hbx 2995 with my Hobbywing kit in it for the next video (unless you’ve seen it before in my older videos). It actually is somewhat comparable to the granite lol
@@DerbyCityRC I can't wait to see your next clip! And thanks for doing them I'm just getting into the hobby I recently got a traxxis stampede and the bronco t4m there both alot of fun especially after upgrades.. Just looking to add to the fleet.
awesome man!! Can’t wait to get the next one out to you!
Almost 5 tousand views in just 4 days! Wow I guess this car is pretty popular
Or people just like my videos 😎🤣
Is it just 34cm long these car.Shame small do hbx do larger ones like these
Hi. Could it be that the 901 and 903 have the same parts as the 2996a?
Because I can't find any spare parts.
Not even on the official website.
The 2996a is also not on the Haiboxing website.
No those are totally different than the 2996a. You can click the contact button on the official site haiboxing-hobby.com and send them an email with the part you need. It shares most parts with the hbx 2995
@@DerbyCityRC
Ok thank you.
Would it be possible to change just esc for more capable one? And place it in the midle of a car (like in wltoys 144001)to accommodate larger battery? I want to get it but it seems bit slow to me😅
Yes I’ve for a new one I’ll be putting in it soon.
Didn’t I get 28-29 mph with this? That’s higher than the average, HOWEVER!!!!,
I’ve got a video coming out in about 20 minutes that’s same scale and faster!
Awesome. Thanks for replying. I will check it out. Waiting for the upgrade video!!
You have a new subscriber and my 2996a is on the way, thanks for your discount coupon 😉
I'm going to buy the Injora wheels and spacers that you recommend, in m4 and 15mm correct?
What thickness oil do you use in the 2996a shocks?
2996a can it work with 90mm between holes? I think the upgraded shocks that you use on flyhal, 2995, and 2996a are 80mm between holes.
I ask this because the Injora brand also has 80mm and 90mm shock absorbers between holes (they seem good and are reasonably priced) so I have doubts about the best configuration:
80front 80rear
80f 90r
90f 90r
I suppose that in general, longer shock absorbers are better for landing on jumps, longer rear shocks favor stability under acceleration, but it is also possible that longer shocks make the center gravity higher and the car rolls over more easily in turns...
What do you think?
Awesome! Glad to have you with us!
I’m sure you’ll love your new RC!
So the 90mm shocks should work fine. And yes the longer travel, in theory, will help with landings and likely make it too easier. I guess you saw the video I made after this one? I show the shocks I use and they come with a good weight oil in them already. The stock ones I never changed, but also really recommend 100,000 wt fluid on the center diff!
And yes it’s the 15mm spacers exactly where the link takes you 😃
Hey friend!!!
I was wondering if you know if any of the differentials front or back of 2996a is the same with 901a .?
I ordered a 901a but couldn't send for some reason and then i ordered the 2996a and it came but in the meantime i ordered differential for 901a and it's late to cancel them.
Also fir 2996a how many amps esc you suggest for 3s lipo??
Any help would be great!!!
Awesome videos you make love to see them from Greece!!!!
Have a nice day!!!!
Hello! I do think the 901 diffs will fit, but really just need to try it to be sure.
I’d say a decent esc with atleast 60 amos would be best! This one here should work well: amzn.to/4c0SSff.
Not sure if it will fit in the exact same spot as the original.
@@DerbyCityRC thank you for your reply!!!
Your videos are awesome!!!
I have a little boy 17 months year old and i prepare to play with him just like you with your sons when he gets older!! When i find some time i will check if the difs are matching and i let you know!!!
Thank you again my friend!!!!
@Stavros.85 you’re welcome and that’s so awesome!
Thanks my friend!!
Hi. Where can i order all spare parts? Cant find it. Best regards!
Haiboxing-hobby.com.
You may need to email them your specific needed part numbers if it’s not listed.
i have been looking at this new version but I'm still happy with my brushless upgraded FC610 that runs and handles better then my blx granite... the 2996a they should of made a larger battery tray and come with a 3s capable esc. i cant not find the same body type for a FC610.... mine is destroyed. I'm using my old deerc 9200e body for now. any suggestion to find this body shell ?
Ya it likely won’t be as good as my I prefer versions but we’ll see. They are amazing handling. Did you put any diff fluids in?
I haven’t found the shell yet, but you may be able to send an email to Haiboxing-hobby.com and ask about it.
@@DerbyCityRC yea i use TA 20 k oil for all my rc cars seems to do good so far, any suggestions for the oil type ?
I just ran it with 100k in the center and it seemed perfect. It was originally dry as a bone!
Front and rear had grease so I just left them alone for now.
I used this: amzn.to/3Pc4Dar
Looks to be ok, i would not call that a 1/10, its a 1/12 for sure, even my pro 1/10 race truggy is bigger than that thing, but consider what you pay for it, i think its great value. Nice video, keep them coming. (Just had to add this, they claim 45kmh, and you got 44kmh, so they are not lying to us, for once ) ;-)
Yes definitely a 1/12 lol.
That’s awesome about the speed!
I wasn’t even sure what they claimed so that’s great!!
They call it 1/10 “XS“ i think that is ok! I like the size very much!
@ex-mitglied1770 ya I’m ok with it too!!
XS and XL after scale size would be fine!
lets see the three
Hihave you tryed 30mm spacers on 16889a an was it good
I have not lol. That’s a bit much and would likely lead to issues, worth a try though!! Mine are 15mm.
@@DerbyCityRC does it improve
Bought this off the back of this video, but after a little light use just testing it, the rear drive shaft has rounded. It only fits inside the gear by 1mm! Not sure how to resolve? Any ideas?
Man that’s weird! I’ve had a couple other people say this same thing happened to them. I’ve now had 5 cars on this exact platform, I beat them to pieces, and I’ve never had that driveshaft fail. I would reach out to hbx first. They tend to have decent customer service. I wonder if maybe on some of them they accidentally use the wrong pinion that’s not as long. Have you taken both diffs out? Curious if the diff pinion gears for front and rear are the same ones or if one is shorter.
@@DerbyCityRC Thanks, and yes very strange as I see how hard you've driven yours!
In the manual and online T2026 umbrella pinion looks identical front and rear, but will have a look for real. It does look like the rear center drive shaft on T2302 is about 5mm too short. A longer drive shaft or longer pinion would sort it i'm sure.
I've reached out to HBX, waiting on a reply. Fingers crossed.
@JamesMGTF responding via email 👍
Would you say that this one is a car for a 11year old one, or should he go with a smaller one?
My 6yr old can drive this one very well. He’s been practicing for almost 3 years though. I bet an 11 year old could catch on pretty quick, and this is one of my top favorite cars. Check this one out too, it’s the same basic car but has a few upgrades and is available on Amazon for $50 off right now making it about the same price: czcams.com/video/9mef2vZL-eY/video.htmlsi=nlZ4V27N55Nz9qtL

Yes 3s please
It shall be done!!!
That not a weakness you just need fit another front an rear bumper on any car on top of the other
Yo Im having issues with stripping spur gears and diffs. I up graded ESC 120 3600 kv motor, when I put 3s battery it takes about a day and diff or spur is stripped. I run mostly on pavement and grass, think thats to much power, and I went to one of tour recommended sites for the metal spur and I guess it wasn’t working right but purchase wouldn’t go thru.
That may be too much power. Lol. Thats a lot and these gears are very good quality. I don’t remember posting about any gear upgrades for the HBXs besides a pinion gear for the motor. The electronics I have in my upgraded 2995 is a 60 amp esc and a 3300kv motor (Hobbywing Max10). It easily hits 45-50 mph on 3s and is plenty for this car lol
@@DerbyCityRC thanks. Yeah thats what I thought, so I use 3S batteries and use the controller to turn it down like 65% and 2s on 100%. Its so fun having that much power on tap,Lol
It is I agree! I smash the throttle at every chance I get 🤣
You definitely need to drink some Gatorade and hydrate you look so sweaty 😂😂
🤣🤣 coming out faster than I could put it in 🤣
Is these largest hbx .What is the best largest hbx model please
My favorite would be the new 2997a. I have a video on that from a few weeks ago. It’s this same chassis with a different body, shocks, and tires. Can take 3s.
3s comparison please
Should be out tonight!!
Mate, do they have the same cvd thickness?the brushless with the brushed..
It looks like the same exact part. Have you had trouble with them? I think I broke an axle one my 2995 once but man was I hard on it!
@@DerbyCityRC i had the brushed tornado and put a 3s and lost it on a turn and the cvd broke in the joint.. that's why i was wondering for the thickness of the new one..
Thanks mate!i would like to see if it can handle 3s..
That’s surprising as I’ve abused the crap out of my 2995 lol. Definitely seems like the exact same axles as the fc610 and this new one. Hopefully just a bad metal casting for that one!
Bought today with your link and coupon code! Thank You!🙏 can I ask you the measure in millimeters of the maximum battery size I can fit in?(bangood is notoriously slow in shipping I can search and buy the battery in this time) I have found a INTELLECT PT2 5000MAH 120C 7,6V that seems the best I can get on small size! it's 95.2mm long, 46.5 wide and 25mm high, 7.6V instead of 7.4 ... I don't think this matters right? Thank You Again!!
Thanks I appreciate that! 😊
I’ll double check but if I remember right, 95mm is too long. 7.6v should be fine, but I’ll get you a link that fits if that one doesn’t.
@@DerbyCityRC very appreciated thank You man! also the slot length would be enough in case! from a research many are suggesting Zeee batteries 🙏🏻❤️
My measurements came in at 73x36 so that one may not fit right 😢
@@DerbyCityRC Thank You! so at this point I think the only solution will be 2 Zeee S2 2200mAh n parallel... they have exactly this size, thank you again for the measures! ❤️
Dumb question....I been in to rcs for a while now and have a huge collection but when it comes to dif fluid I never really paid attention and just went with what came in my rigs. What does stiffer and lighter fluid do in the cars?
Not a dumb question!
It basically adds resistance inside the diff to make it not transfer power to individual wheels too easily. So depending on the thickness you put in it, it can drastically change the handling. I think I have a pretty good explanation somewhere in this video as there is too much to type lol.

I plan on making a short video on the subject soon too. 👍
The ticker the diff fluid is, the less slipping you have in the diff. Thinner fluid let's it slip more and usually needs to be changed out more.
@Derby City RC Thank you! I love you man!
😃
Front:
Thinner:
Increases steering into corners (off-power)
If oil is too thin the steering may become inconsistent, especially it can lose forward traction (and steering) during acceleration out of corners
Thicker:
Increases stability into corners during braking
Increases steering on-power at corner exit
Center
Thinner:
Front wheels unload more during acceleration
Easier to drive on rough tracks
If a high-power motor is used you could waste too much power and sometime “cook” the oil in the center differential because it “overloads”
More off-power steering
Thicker:
Better acceleration
Increases on-power steering (reduces understeer)
Better suited on high-bite, smooth tracks
Too thick oil gives more over steer
Rear
Thinner:
Increases cornering traction
Increases steering into corner
Thicker:
Decreases rear traction while cornering
Reduces wheelspin
Drop a cheap 60A esc in then rock 3s
Once I let the smoke out of the stock one, that’s what will happen for sure!
Bro you go hard I wonder if you buy these cars full price cause if so you have no chill an just send it I like it though sucks that its not really 1/10
I get some sent to me for testing, but I bought this one myself. 👍👍
Can you find a good 1 10 truck upto 210
A decent 1/10 would be tough for $210. That HSP I just reviewed meets that (I have a discount code). But I wouldn’t jump it too much. Lol
Do it!!! 3s Bro
The people have spoken and it shall be done lol 😂
Yes...wanted to see the 3s...but are the parts the same as the 2995
Yes the parts are the same, from what I can tell, except for the body and wheels. And of course the electronics.
@@DerbyCityRC thanks my guy & I'm sure the chasis is the same I take it too.
Yes with a very small difference that the motor pinion can now be accessed by just removing 3 screws instead of the entire rear diff cover.
Have you tried 3s on these
I did. I tried it in the video with this vs my upgraded 2995. It didn’t go well lol
Do you prefer This or the Rlaaro Terminator?
Answered this bf or you in another comment, but the rlaarlo would be my choice.
Just making an FPV offroader, so really maybe the FC610 would be the best choice but I'm not sure of it's got as good of a rear/front diff. as the others.
I'm not sure if I'll run out of range of my controller first, or video transmiter ranger first (at 1.3ghz VTX).
Do you use stock controllers for all you vehicles? or do you have a programable or expensive controller that works for multiple cars?
Thanks for replying, I didn't expect ya to.
@@DerbyCityRC
Please!!!! On 3s on original ESC
That’s the plan!!!
Why can't I find spare parts for this car? Where can I find? thank you.
Haiboxing-hobby.com is the manufacturers website and they have the parts. 👍
@@DerbyCityRC Hello, I was looking at your page but they do not specify spare parts for this model. nor for 1/10 scale.
Is it possible that they are the spare parts of the 2995 model?
Yes most of the 2995 parts are the same. You can also send them an email via the contact us button and ask about certain part numbers. That’s always worked for me but it’s been a while since I’ve needed to do that.
Hello bro, I don't know if you could do a review of the new MJX 14210, it is a car that I would like to buy but there are few people who have it, there is no review of the car, thanks!
It’s not on the docket just yet, but hopefully soon!!! I’m definitely interested. Though I do have the hbx 2105a coming which is probably the car the 14210 is based off of!
@@DerbyCityRC nooo the 2105a is basically a longer and lower hbx 1/16. The Mjx 1/14 is a completely different chassis with metal base. It has proper 3S electronics too Oranges and apples 😊
Oh and it's twice the price of the hbx so...
Gotcha! Well I emailed my mjx rep to see if I could snag one so fingers crossed!
Proud they are!!
How would you compare this to the 16889a?
I like this one more due to its size and the center diff. Plus it is faster.
But I like the newer 2997a even more if you haven’t seen that video from a couple weeks ago.
@@DerbyCityRC I did. I think that’s my next car for sure. Did you ever run it on 3s?
Yup I ran it on 3s in that video 😆
It’s a beast!
Did you try 3s with the stock Electronics already?😅
lol yes. It didn’t go well 🤣
Burning the esc?😂
3s 🙏🏽 please
Absolutely!!!!
Would you choose this over the 903a? I watched both of your videos but i cant decide which one to get.
Definitely. The 903a is just average HBX in my opinion (which is better than most average cars already). To me the 2996a is superior.
@@DerbyCityRCthanks! Im going to click your link and buy the 2996a now!!
@LinezWet thanks, really appreciate that! I think you’ll love it!
@@DerbyCityRC you are the man. Me and my 10 and 3 year old love watching your videos
@@DerbyCityRC just bought it brother! Used your coupon code!! Thanks bro!! 2669a with two batteries. Should i use the chargers it comes with?
Those are some scary humans over there...😂 ive got Those around
Haha! Don’t we all!
