Nah, this was run only in a lake. Sea water deveatates rc boats

Haha, yup 😁

Cheers, man, i know time is precious. People have other things to do, so i don't want to take up too much of their time! I have not been very active on here lately, but i am working on changing that in the coming weeks 😊

You might be able to replace it with one from Aliexpress 😊

You bet it is 😄

These are only rear wheel drive. There is no function other than steering in the front wheels sadly. It is just the draw back of 2wd vehicles, they are pushed through corners instead of dragged

It has a third channel, so you may be able to set that as one. I believe the system also has a build in fail safe that you can set

That's in wingate, wellington, new zealand 😊

From memory, i believe you will get 10-15 minutes out of a full charge. Charge time, i believe is 30 mintues odd

@@How-To-RC how do you know when it’s fully charged? K-Mart have taken it off their website. I’ve been lucky to get 20+ minutes out of it since Xmas.. feels like you charge it more than you use it.

These trucks don't tend to have a very long run time, as they are toy grade. But charging should not take any longer than 30mins to 2 hours at max. I think they have a light on the truck somewhere that should go out when they are charged.

Cheers for the sub 😄 Yeah, it is a fast little critter, haha. When you take the slack out of the drive train with the alloy upgrades and install the high-speed spur gear. This thing flies! Even with just a torque tuned motor.

Nice! They are not bad for the price tag. Rtr of course, but still has plenty of punch. This kit also has the benefit of two pinion gears, so you can change the torque depending on whether you are going to drive on dirt or on tarmac

Haha, it set me back about nzd$350 back when i bought it. I ended up selling it off to fund parts for my racing vehicles 😆

Hey man. I don't believe any of the gears are provided by tamiya in metal form. They all come in plastic as far as i am aware, all except the pinion gears

Yeah man, it is easy as 😊

Hey man! Cheers 😁 yeah parts for the tt02b are fairly easy to come by, fortunately this buggy shares the same parts catalog as the on road counter part, the tt02. The only difference between the two is the suspension units front and back have been changed to suit off road conditions, so yes parts are quite easy to track down 😊

Thanks for your feedback. I will definitely note this for a future video topic 😊

Compared to what i paid in NZD, yes it is. I had to pay $450 for mine 😁

King Cobra Hobby out of Pensacola Florida has them for 139$. Guess I should get 1 or 2?

Man! I wish they were that price over here, that would be a steal! 😱 at that price you may as well get two. They are of course brushed, but if you are not willing to pay the increased price for a brushless model, these work great as an entry class, then you cam always upgrade to a brushless setup later on 😊

Oh? I found it to be a pretty solid contender. It held it's own rather well when it was up against the competition. Did you have a bad experience with the product?

Have you ever owned one? I'm guessing no. To say that is nonsense. Stick with your bestest rc in the world.... Your slash lol

Yeah you are right. The TT02b does sit a lot lower, even with the heights adjusted. It all comes down to preference. I prefer the tt02b as the vehicle feels more stable, being that it is a 4wd, where as the dt02 is rear wheel drive meaning you have to compensate a lot on the steering as well as maintain a constant speed to prevent spinning out 😊

Oh thanks for the support 😁 yeah sorry my videonwas very basic. Perhaps i can still be of help. What would you like to know 😊

?

It is kinda tricky moving the cg on this boat. There is not a lot of room inside the hull, plus the battery is in a fixed position.

Tyres are usually mounted to the rims with glue so they are not really intended to come off. How ever... you can in fact cut them off and re purpose the rims with healthier tyres 😊 i tried the acetone trick on tamiya one once and the result was not good. If you are able to find out what the rustler rims are made of, you might be able to seperate the tyres from the rims that way

@@How-To-RC I just realized I bought the wrong tires.

😲 can you exchange them? The multi ring feont tyres arw the best 😄

It is usually due there not being an air pocket at the top of your piston sleeve. When you rebuild a shock you want to fill the sleeve to sbout 5mm below the top. This creates an air pocket and causes the piston to return to where the rebound was set. If the piston does not rebound. There are a few things that could be causing the problem. The main issue being a possible leak from the o ring sleeves. If this were the case your shocks may need to be rebuilt like in this video. If that is not the issue another cause could be a bent piston rod presenting the shock from rebounding due to binding. If that is also not the case, then my last guess, if the vehicle is new. The shocks may have not been filled before the rc vehicle left the factory. In which case, just do a rebuild of the shocks and you will be sweet 😄

Hey man! Thanks for reaching out. No question is a dumb question. 😊 The way to make the battery fit is to hang the balance cable outside of the battery tray. I believe there is a slot in the tray door that you can feed it through, at 4.33 you can see me holding the end of the cable.

Omg Thankyou so much for your help. We now have one happy boy!

Absolutely no problem at all! 😄 so glad i could help you out. You guys are going to have an awesome time with this truck 😄 the only thing to watch out for is the coloured light on the charge cable. I think glowing means charging and when the light is off it is charged. Or it could be the other way around. I tend to forget lol 😄 Merry Christmas to you and yours Scotty

They are awesome aye! If i was ever to upgrade i would move onto the noble 4

Wow! Thats a lot of useful info. I am going to save this for future tweaks to my vehicles 😁 i currently have to of the dt02 chassis. One is in pieces and the other hides beneath my holiday buggy shell. I agree with you on the aftermarkert shock oils. I use the losi brand and normally run 30wt rear and 35wt front to keep the nose of my vehicles out of the dirt

Oh wow, cen brought them out? I used to love CEN, my first ever 8th scale nitro buggy was a CEN product 😁 mean... so i have a parts supplier now 😉😄

@@How-To-RC yes, glow plug, diffs internals, a set of dog bones, a lot of stuff in package sealed

How far back were these 16th scale buggies released?

@@How-To-RC 6- 10 years there where in hobbytown

Oh man... i am way out of the loop then haha. Did you ever have issues with the clearance of the steering linkages? They seem very cramped and appear to need a lot of force to steer the vehicle

Hey there, thanks for reaching out! To my knowledge. Only the noble 4 can operate without the use of a receiver gimbal. It has built in software with it's own drivers. Most of the other fly sky models require the use of a usb gimbal to connect to a pc

Good to hear

I had to come up with some new content 😁

@@How-To-RC Yeah that sort of thing can take a while. Good to see you back though (from best blader)

Oh it's you lol! I'm glad you have been so loyal. I half expected you to unsub lol because of how long i have been absent 😅

@@How-To-RC thanks, I figured you would come back eventually so I decided to stick around.

I had that issue too. I believe it is a sync issue with the wireless control system. I'm not sure how to solve it though

Hey man! Thanks for reaching out. Yes, the kit includes two sensor wires. I tried running the motor withou them and it was chaos 😆

Is it not clicking when you push down on it?

@@How-To-RC its clicking. But nothing happens. I did see a video on ytb someone praying wd 40 on the button inside the shell. I might try that!

Oh awesome! Are you any good at soldering? There is a mild chance that wiring to your enter button may have come loose. If it is not too difficult. I would say dismantle the remote and check the circuits leading to the button

@@How-To-RC i will check everything. and no iam not good at soldering😅 thanks for the help greetings from sweden!

No worries jesse. You got this though. Dig deep and i sure you will solve it. If you know anyone who is good with electronics. Adk them if they can check the circuits inside the remote. Greetings from new zraland 😄

I had the same issue with mine. There is a chance though that there might be air bubbles trapped in the front shocks. Although less is unlikely if both are stiff. In any case. If that was the issue you just need to bleed the air put of them. Just remove them from the chassis and unscrew the shock caps, slide the piston up and down a few times and see if any air escapes from the shock oil. Them rest set you piton to your desired rebound height 😊 if that does not change anything. Try removing the spring tension vlips on the front of the buggy if any are installed

@@How-To-RC thanks. I was swapping out the one piece plunger in the ccas for piston rods, c clips, and the one hole plunger. Swapped out the black o rings for the red ones, I filled it with new yellow oil. No air bubbles this time. I tried the different mounting positions for the shock then noticed what you had in the video. Rear middle setting and front inner most setting. WOW what a difference. It’s as if the rear has to be in the middle setting or it’s not happy. Outer or inner settings make the rear damper stay flex. Middle doesn’t. Thanks for all your help. I knew it had to be something simple.

Haha no worries man 😄 glad i could help. Yeah the set up i have in the video is what i found worked best. Once the buggy is dailed in. It drives like a dream 😁

Unfortunately the bike isn't all that fast.

Nah this little drill is seriously under powered. It is really only strong enough to back out screws on a door frame or back screws out of a plastic RC chassis If you want to start nitro vehicles. I recommend getting one of these Electric Power Starter HSP 70111 (11001) Drill Holder Plate for Vertex 16 18 21 Nitro Engine Parts Roto RC Car Without Battery Amax Himoto Exceed Buggy Truck a.co/d/bcBhnCK

Hey man. Cheers for checking out my video 😄 yeah i opted to only use the alloy prop as i didn't see the need for the flashy pivot cups. In my opinion the stock ones work just fine. I suppose the stock ones might provide a bit of friction, but the effect is so minor you hardly notice it. Bearings however are a must in terms of upgrades, bush friction is definitely something you want to be rid of 😁 the BZ motor should give you some crazy offroad power. Might i suggest getting the tamiya high speed gear set as well. The change in the gear ratio draws out more power from the motor and gives the buggy more speed over jumps

Oh awesome! What do you think of it?

@@How-To-RC its awsome i changed the wheels but teyed glue ing them didnt work

Oh you mean you tried to glue a new set of tyres onto a new set of rims? Haha. It does seem simple but even i struggle with the task at times

@@How-To-RC na the rims and tires wernt pre glued

Oh right, victory! Then lol 😄 this truck uaed to be my wifes. But she stopped using it and ran short on cash, so she ended up selling it. I owned the brushed version. But in time i too, became strapped for cash and ended up selling my truck also

I found the same issues. When i installed this into my vkar buggy i couldn't keep up with the pack. Sadly... this particular buggy can not have it's gearing enhanced. Does your tt02 have a high speed gear set installed and have a 25T pinion on the motor?

@@How-To-RC yes my tt02 has high gear set and a 25t pinion but it's slow. Than the torque tuned stock motor

From what i have heard. This esc-motor combo comes with the timing reduces for some reason. I have the same issue with mine. I have found you need a hobbywing programming card to adjust the setting. I think the timing needs to be advanced

What kind of programming card I only have a 1080 program card

I believe you need a hobby wing programming card

The grasshopper is a great rc model. I currently have one in my possession 😄 they can be very quick, but they struggle with the modern day track jumps

Getting toys as presents is the best 😆

@@How-To-RC just changed the servo on mine the stock servo went out on m...... I'm gonna hit my track a little if you wanna stop by my channel this evening!!

Sure. I would love to support a fellow rc enthusiast 😄 what type of servo did you install, Speed or torque? I had an idea for a video this morning. So i will work on getting that sorted and uploaded within the next few days as well 😊

@@How-To-RC its a hexfly 25kg I'll show it in the video this evening and I'll supply a link it was $15 🇺🇸 servo it has more torque and is faster then the stock servo by twice the speed almost

It is always good to upgrade from the stock gear. It is usually of low quality to cut costs and make kits cheaper for the consumer, sadly the trade off is the the parts dont last long and end up letting you down when you need them the most

Oh awesome! The lipo version is so much better 😄

@@How-To-RC now if can cet the recievers to bind .. one that came w transmiter no issues but 5 pack I bought can't get any to work is 100% same reciever at least looks same and same sticker

Hmm.. that is unusual.. and you have tried using the binding plug?

@@How-To-RC yes.. and tried every way I can find last instructions is bind plug at top battery in any of other 3 get a slow flash but when hit bind and turn on transmiter never goes solid is slow blink. Trying on 2nd model on transmitter now the original transmiter on model 1 can be controlled w transmitter on any model 1threw 10

There is always the chance that the recievers you got came from a bad batch. The chances of getting 5 duds are extremely low, but it can happen. I would contact the company/petson you recieved them from and ask for an exchange

Hey man! Cheers for the support 😄 I race up at cmr as well. There are too classes you could race in. We have a 4wd class that has a lot of high end cars in. Or you could race in the vintage/sunday cup races like i do. I find it safer to race in these classes as there is a much lower chance of suffering vehicle damage. You just missed our most recent race meet. But we will.have another one next month 😊

@@How-To-RC oh man that sounds good i will have to look out for the next one then 👍

Search up our club page on facebook. There is usually a post that will come out giving the event details 🤜

Wingate, Wellington, new zealand

I'm not actually too sure tbh. I believe all transmitters work the same

Cheers for clearing that one up for me 😄
