This $80 RC Car Really Surprised me!

This is the New JJRC C8809!

There are hundreds of options when it comes to 1/18th scale mini trail trucks and RC Cars which makes it hard to work out which are the best to go for.

I have featured lots of mini crawlers and trail trucks on my channel and this new one from JJRC shows incredible potential for the small price of £67/$86!

What an epic little trail truck from JJRC! For the money its another excellent choice for someone looking for cheap fun on their favourite trail!

Oil shocks would make it drive like a whole other kettle of fish!

Nice one! Got one on the way on a deal for just over 50 quid. Really looking forward to it now. Thanks for the review. 👍

As previously said in the comments it is the same as the Austar Hobby AX-8560 you reviewed last year. Bought one off the back of that video and inspired me to set up a group dedicated to it!

This is a really good small scale crawler for the price and i can see that parts are widely available. Very good scale and affordability in my opinion wins the day. I'm going to this versus the earlier ones.

[scaleworksRC]

Wow.. pretty impressive little rig for that price! The added stickers, white body, decent wheels with included spare, and the quiet motor! Just those shocks are the only negative I can see.. easy fix though

[MarcoL]

That’s definitely a rebranded AUSTAR ax8650. It’s such a great truck, Especially for the money! I might get this one just to have a different style

[kashmurray]

Neat little truck. Good for the money.

[DanielLindholm-hc]

I would cut the fenders out unless the body clips to them and add some better wheels. Good little truck to pickup for play. Looks like a great time to be honest

[bobbjorkner]

great truck, great location! i would add more weight to help it put the power down, like brass wheel weights

[rcplaytime]

great little truck, like it, fms put oil shocks on there 24th scale trophy trucks so they could have put oil shocks on this, still a cool little truck 👍👍👍😃😃

[KeithRichardson-nx]

Oil shocks would improve the cars handling greatly. Oh, by the way, I phoned Buckingham Palace to ask if I could use that road at the back of the Palace where they keep the wheelie bins to do some speed some reason they refused.😢

[wolfeman]

While friction shocks are generally crap that's actually scale for how a real Jeep Cherokee rides 😂

[benjamin]

Nice rig for a nice price! I can see people buying just for the body lol

Which of your mini crawlers is your number 1 and number 2?

[bengaming]

Hi mate can you please review the element enduro 24

[gazzap]

i cant help but like the look of these, they do look such good value for money but it will appeal to my 6 year old more then me as i get bored with trail trucks and crawlers, . my son however is happy to emerse himself in the mini world and drive around in a small space for a good while before he gets bored, . He also loves blasting around with his most used truck right now which is the Omni Terminator, , , he always draws a crowd and other kids when he is blasting that around the dirt. All in all though I can see why these mini crawlers/trail trucks have a place its just not for me I guess. :)

[andyshaw]

shame about the shocks, nice little car

[dangrady]

Hmm are the tyres glued on to the wheels ? If so that’s a whole new wheel set ! Deep dish for extra width . Looks very much like the Austar 8650 under the body, can you do a comparison video ?

[Adeadoornail]

Not bad for the money, you pay nearly that much for a hardbody swap, plus it has the inner fenders.

[Nerm]

I am tempted to get me one of these. Do you know of anybody that offers brass upgrades that would fit on it?
