    Here's the HB Toys ZP1001 Land Rover Defender 110 RC Car. This RC truck looks very much like something else!...so again, we have another Clone to add to the collection. It is actually around 1/11 scale rather than 1/10 scale, so smaller than the TRX4.
    Out the box this looks quite cheap and generally a bit toy grade, however, it has plenty of power from the 540/550 motor, and actually runs very well! I think upgrading the suspension and adding some softer tyres will transform this in to quite a capable crawler!

    I've got this one couple of years ago from a local store only after I've checked it Ali Express for upgrade parts. And there were tons of ém 🙂Two years later and spent another 300-350 $ , now it is a way better crawler, no but very capable trail runner : Swamp rider super soft tires 108 mm outer diameter, proper oil filed shocks , all metal links , rear and front axles ; stainless steel drive shafts , 3546 brushless outrunner motor , 80 A ESC ; 25 kg titanium gear servo, 5000 mAh li-po battery etc. I love the results ;-) Out of the box is just a comfortable platform for endless mods - great to fill up my time as a cripple in a wheel chair

    I bought some 4x4 around that size for around 120 bucks including a couple cheap lipo batteries. It had the same kind of parts and cheap springs like that did. The landings were pretty rough. That being said, it had some pretty darn good get up and go! It would run for about 15 minutes on each battery. For the money it wasn't really half bad at all. Downer side was it was too close to my heater and melted the plastic rims. I'd have replaced them, but regular rc rims were too large to fit on it. I ended up putting a bigger battery on it and shorted it out. I ended up tossing it out in the end. I did have fun with it while it lasted.

      I'd even give WD-40 bag soaking the stock tires a try if they can be peeled from the rims easy enough, sometimes its surprisingly good results. edit: if so (peelable)... yes wrap the rims solder+tape, ditch some chassis weights to give it a chance with lower C/G, more flex, and a lower all up weight. cheapo that it is, with some real world inexpensive practical mods, it might do really well.

      @modelnutty6503 Před 5 lety +2

      definitely, just 1/4" to 3/8" taller with some softness would do it wonders, same for ditching weight on the chassis and putting weight to the rims instead. hopefully the manufacturer sees comments like this and does some tinkering to improve them as suggested, I get it that the molds have already been created and going new would be expensive plus it'd cause down-time for production. chassis stiffness could be improved with a little different type plastic being injected, going plastic friction damped shocks, longer with lighter springs... MN-D90 style stock cheapo's wouldn't be a mold making nightmare, they ARE a little too bouncy for MN-D90 as got, those would need slightly lighter springs and less clearance for more friction to happen.

      Traxxas needs to downsize their legal department.
      Alot of us Texas/former Texas residents would not buy their stuff because of the constant lawsuit nonsense. Their headquarters was right up the highway from me but I don't want to support a company that is always unzipping their fly and getting their lawyer out.

    no complaints about its appearance, they definitely should have gone more rigid with the chassis, softer springs and more ride height (longer shocks). if they're going to add WEIGHT, add it at the wheels where it'd help real flex! no problem with softer plastic suspension links if its harder to break something. good review, we know you didn't invent it.
    liking MN-D90 here lots more, it got oil shocks and the Fayee 6 spoke rims+tires when built (are wider), with 16 turns 2 mm solder on the front rims helps. it just got a tan colored B-36 type gearbox (low ratio) in it, about 1/2 the speed double the torque, crawls+climbs easier.

    • @TomleyRC
      @TomleyRC  Před 5 lety +2

      The B36 gearbox is such a good design, geared perfectly for the little trucks!

    • @modelnutty6503
      @modelnutty6503 Před 5 lety +1

      for the heavier ones they're really perfect for single 180 motor power. MN-D90 definitely qualifies as heavier (top heavy too unfortunately). the old WPL stock #316 gearbox: C-24 here is two "69'd" together with a 130 powering each axle, the C-14 (just built) got "HobbyDaddy" dual 130 motors with his "just add a motor" method. "RTR" (RunThatRc) just did a cool video about the swap-ability of WPL type parts, WPL, Fayee, JJRC, etc. JJRC heavier axles and Fayee 6 spoke rims/tires under the C-14 gave extra 3/4" of width, plenty stable for the #316 gearbox dual 130's higher speed (both perfect trail walkers with torque for climbing too).
      I know I can't be the only one who commented for several months about the #316 gearbox not having a low enough ratio, is totally fixable if they would re-do counter gear #1, counter gear #2, and the gear on the output spindle, just enough to lose 15-20% of the speed in favor of a little more torque. I'm still unable to locate a source for purchasing the B-36 type gearbox as individual units, if anyone sees, please holler out!!

    I really wish people understood the difference between a clone and a knockoff. This is NOT a clone of a TRX4, it’s a knockoff. A clone will be a copy with parts that are interchangeable between the two. A knockoff looks like another RC but doesn’t have parts that are interchangeable and is meant to fool people into thinking they’re getting something that they’re not. You’re only helping that dishonest practice by calling it a clone instead of a knockoff.
