Review: Best value RC truck - 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 desertcart.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 desertcart, 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 desertcart 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.
Review: Fast, tough and a great price point! - 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!

## Features

- 【High-Torque Brushless Motor】This brushless RC monster truck is powered by a 2840 brushless 3500KV motor, which hits a top speed of over 30mph. Its full metal drive train, reinforced with powder metal gears and pinions, ensures durability for high-speed off-road racing games. It is a deluxe fast RC cars for adults and practiced children over 8 years old.
- 【Smooth Out the Bumps】Aluminum oil-filled shocks help absorb bumps and reduce vibrations to improve maneuverability and stability. Paddle tires are optional, and the wheelie bar is included for stunt performance or improved driving balance. This allows the 4X4 RC truck to handle tough terrains, such as sand, gravel roads, grass, or concrete roads.
- 【Precise, Responsive Control】The 2.4GHz radio system provides control from up to 330 feet away with minimal interference when racing alongside other RC cars. Refined throttle response delivers linear acceleration and precise handling at both low and high speeds. A dedicated 3-wire 2.5KG digital servo ensures quick, accurate steering through tight turns and across varied tracks.
- 【Splash-Resistant ESC】Equipped with a 35A splash-resistant electronic speed controller (ESC), this 4WD off-road RC truck handles rain and shallow freshwater puddles with built-in protection against overheating, overcurrent, and low battery voltage. For significantly higher speeds, the ESC also supports 3S batteries, recommended for experienced drivers in wide-open areas. Avoid saltwater exposure, as it can damage electronics and corrode metal parts.
- 【Hobby-Grade RC Truck】Install the wheelie bar and head outdoors with this remote control truck for adults and boys. The package includes an extra green body shell, decals, paddle tires, two Li-Po batteries and two USB charging cables. Enjoy over 30 minutes of combined runtime with both batteries. Wear parts are individually replaceable; consult the manual's parts list or contact HAIBOXING support for help. Gear up for your next off-road adventure.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Upgrades list in the review, great little car.
*by P***D on February 14, 2026*

This is an awesome car for the price. Something you can take out and play with and not be afraid to break your expensive RC cars. It will need to have some upgrades. The parts that I put are not recommendations, they are just the parts I chose. Shocks were the only plug and play parts. The original shocks leaked oil within a week. The body needed to be cut to fit, the original body is a hard brittle plastic the breaks easily. For the body mounts I switched the front mount that was on the car to the rear and the rear to the front. The front circle needed to be shaved down a tad to fit back in. For this body the original width of the body mounts will fit the body I chose, the front will need new holes. The light is bright enough to actually make a difference but it is not extremely bright. I did splice them into original wires. There may be and easier way. The brass spacers are to give a wider stance and add weight. The rims needed to be drilled out a little, very easy to do. This car is fast for the size so the extra weight and stance helps with stability. Stock tires are great, just expect to buy new ones because you constantly will be pealing out, if wanting to do so. The controller is actually very nice with the speed limiter. The list of parts I chose are in the pictures.
