@minititan100 Sorry, didn't see this comment before... in answer, it is good, but not great. being 1:16 it is prone to easy breaking if driven hard (e.g. into things). We had a problem with our engine that we never managed to get compression back into, so sadly it doesn't run any more, but again because it is so small it is tricky to fix.
@Roridge Nonono I think you misunderstood me :) in the video at 1:10 theres a green car that looks as if it is a 1/10th model, do you know what it's called? :)
@roztheboz ahhhhh, right, that is my Hyper 7, it is a 1:8, i have a few videos of it if you go and look at all my videos, or just search for Hyper 7 :) It's a fantastic car.
Yes it was a great mini RC 1:16 car. But being so small makes it much less durable. I wouldn't recommend it unless you already had a 1:8 or higher and are comfortable with how to run and maintain them.
The NB16 is supposed to be vaguely 40MPH, I believe. But you'd know better than I - mine's yet to arrive! How long does a tank for fuel last, by the way?
@jorin12 Stock, they're around 25mph, I ported and polished the sleeve and crank, installed the "tuned" pipe hop up, and the 2 speed gearbox, put some 1:10 slicks on it, put a 1:10 air filter and wider fuel hoses, put 1:8th fuel outputs on the tank. Then ran it on 45% nitro, It reached 55mph with around £20 of upgrades and a little time, needless to say the spur quickly melted and I wrecked the engine, but now I'm in the process of restoring it. Easily the best nitro I've owned!
they are that small u can put them on ur shelf in ur bedroom well i got 2 meny petrol cars mate if u r in 2 petrol cars get a banja 28cc ( change the engine 2 a 50cc you will love it thye are 1/6 sclae
Hi i am thinking about getting one of these.. are they any good? and what are the pro's and con's .. also i am quite experienced with rc cars... please reply quite quick :) .. nice video btw ..
im sorry i must retract that coment the drive shaft problem was from a crash i didnt know i did and the engine problem was down to me not breaking it in properly its seriosly a great car
yes the problems i had was purely down to my incompitense wen it was working it was sooooo much fun you should buy one but i think you should get the truggy its faster and a bit more reliable
yeah these things r great for begginers but if u dont want to throw a load of money away on a expensive hpi or kyosho u shud get one of these fast agile and lot of lots of fun

not sure, they are pretty nippy though... maybe 20-25MPH?
