Great Video, well explained! I think a buggy is good for beginner. Fast and for multiple undergrounds. But I think the Neo Fighter or the Sand Viper is the better choice because you get more for the money. Don't forget to buy ball bearings (Sand Viper package includes ball bearings). Best wishes from south Germany!
Thanks a lot! Very helpful information for an absolute beginner. It just saved me from buying a package with lipo an brushless. But I think I'll be much happier if I start smaller! Exact the video I needed.
👍🏻 Welcome to RC. Do you have a car in mind? If you have Facebook come join the RCKicks group, it’s full of friendly people who are happy to answer any questions you have. 👍🏻
@@RCKickschannel TT-02 Porsche 911 RSR. That's how I landed on your channel. TT-02 simply because my brother bought the tt-02 Capri and I thought it would be fun if I also have an rc next we visit.
Thankyou for making this video I've been building model kits for many years and have been interested in building an RC This video covered everything I need to know (I didn't realise you needed so many extras on top of the kit) Very informative and encouraging Thanks again I will hopefully buy a rally car style kit in the next few months
Cheers for the info really helped👍 Just getting back into RC cars approx 25 years ago and have felt verry over my head with the esc, pistol controllers and lipo batteries
Great video Gavin!!!. Lots of good information there. I think the grasshopper is perfect for a first kit. I also believe........... The grasshopper is Tamiya’s greatest ever kit.... pound for pound I mean. It’s the one that got so many people into the hobby. Think of how many they have sold over the years!!!!. It’s easy to build it’s easy to maintain and it’s cheap. But most of all it’s just pure and simple great great fun!!!!. And that’s what it’s all about!!!
I'm torn between a Hornet, a Grasshopper or a Frog for my second build. My local shop has a Hornet in stock but not a Grasshopper or Frog so I am leaning more that way but I can order either of the other two.
Excellent bit of information Gavin!! 👍👍 I'm a few Decades from Novice.... but I found this so good, that I've added it to my Video List "RC Tips and Tricks". 😃 Servo selection can be dizzying! I knew a guy who built his first, a Hornet. Good choice.... but he thought if a standard Servo was good - a 25kg Crawler Servo must be better!! 😳 He brought the poor Buggy to me, after RIPPING APART the Steering Knuckles!!! (He also wasn't aware of end point adjustments!) 😖 So with people just starting out in this day of massive choice and minimal information... I would add, PLEASE try to find someone who knows enough to guide you in the right direction! Carmine ✈🚂🚙
I will do a second video soon to follow up. Good point about the servo mistake of going super strong and not setting end points. Also want to talk about bearings and what are some good first upgrades.
I'm sure that mistake has happened more than once.... You are a good Presenter! I've been on RUclips since 2008, and I know my Channel will never be big, because I'm not! 😖 I'm okay with that though... I do remember starting out, in late 83, with the Frog. I can only wish I could get another, even re-re. But my situation has been BAD for several years. I can't even buy parts. I'm coming to terms with it, best as I can. I do have experience, and happily share that with whoever may need it. Feels good to help new people in the Hobby, NOT make the mistakes that I made..... Especially pre-Internet!! 😳 Gavin..... Can you BELIEVE that Tamiya STILL offers their new Kits with *PLASTIC BUSHINGS!!??* 😳😡😠 Even in the Konghead, with 5 gazillion Gears! SMH
Speek for ur self I like bl better yes it cost more but speed makes it stand out more picture this u running ur rcs and I pull up with a brushless rock u just got out whataburgered mine had cheez💪🗽⚖⚪⚫
paul Anthony I wasn’t referring to cost point. Having brushless 90k/hr cars & buggies I definitely enjoy breaking out an older slower brushed rC and just having some fun. You would be quite surprised how quick you can get a brushed car going with a 2s and high speed gearing. I recently built a TA05 with stock silver can, high speed gears & 2s and it cracked 70k/hr.
@@RCACTIONAUSTRALIA I feel that you would say that but ok u know what brushed is just as fast as long as you put a lipo and gear it right their I said it u win u can wing it to the hobby shop I feel it's like a dog with a big bark u want him to have a big bite not a big dog with a little bite might as well drive a Honda civic with a exhaust tip on it lol lol jkv red cat situation
I use lipo and brushless for years. I can say that they are much lighter to reach the same performance and booth my car got a much better handling. I think it was a very good decision to change.
Can't help noticing one slight omission. Not an essential of course but something to think about. Paint. Now I already owned an FTX Vantage buggy which came ready to run so I already had a transmitter so I just bought another receiver for it. Not a memory based TX so you do have to bind them before racing but since I can only drive one car at a time, well ........ lol. So, £12 for a receiver and £8 for the steering servo and £15 for a battery. Not expensive at all. The kit I bought (having watched your build first of course) was the Tamiya Lunchbox. It came with a Tamiya ESC in the box so one less expense and the ESC it came with supports both brushed and brushless motors so a neat upgrade path already included. One other thing I bought (because most build channels I follow suggest it is by way of an essential if you are serious) was a set of proper metal bearings! Can't argue with that, cheap enough if you go unbranded, the set of 10 for the Lunchbox cost me about £8 with postage. The build was easy enough since I've been an electronics hobbyist for 40+ years and the included instructions are easy to follow. It ran perfectly straight away so definitely one for a beginner because you do want a successful build. Then we got onto the bit I really didn't care for. Painting it. The wheels were a horrid yellow so they had to go. Now they are a nice metallic blue. The extra paints to complete the model are quite an expense even if you are not going with the box art. Just a little something to think about if you are starting out. Painting isn't essential of course but if you want a nicely finished car ...... One last thing - I bought everything (except for the upgrade bearings) from my local RC hobby shop as it is important to support these shops as they will give you the after sales service essential if you are serious about the hobby.
Hi Nick, I’m going to do a second video to cover painting and what’s required as well as first upgrades like bearings, suspension and that kind of thing.
@@RCKickschannel Good to know cos the stock suspension on the Lunchbox is a pile of unmentionable. I really did not enjoy the painting but that might well be due to the fact I am arthritic and found it a pain in more ways than one.
I need a transmitter that has all telemetry temp volts rpm speed all the nick nacks I have a hotrc transmitter ct6a but has no temp reading, but it fulfills the basics with 6channels
Helo ,,In my local hobby shop, there is only one rc left and that is leonis ,, do you think i should get it? Im kinda new to this,, i like a fast all terain vehicle,, what you think , thanks ,
I am new to the RC car world and I was thinking of getting the Grasshopper 2 as my first build followed by the lunchbox or monster beetle. Would the grasshopper then lunchbox/monster beetle be a reasonable cars for a new starter? Followed later in the year by Thunder Dragon?
Love your videos and Good day. I was wondering if you had a good idea for a new chassis build to go with a body that I acquired. The body is an Austin Healey 3000 that I want to make look like my grand fathers car(which my parents still have). I am thinking either a rally car or street car(not a drifter). I am not sure which chassis would be best for it do you have any good ideas? Thank you
@@RCKickschannel it’s 1/10 scale I honestly do not know who made the body it’s from a British car club in the Midwest US a replica 1960 Austin Healey 3000 shell like my grandfathers car that he bought when he was posted in Germany in the 60s
Have not long had a XV-01 Lancia,now fancy a buggy for rougher terrain. Thinking about the Dark impact OR now the Top force. You must know about about both : )Looking to run low end absima BL combo with LiPo, any thoughts or tips please on both kits?
Two great cars! I like the Top Force myself but I think the dark impact could just about beat it for reliability but it’s close. When you say rough terrain both cars can do OK but don’t go too rough as ground clearance will start to be an issue.
My first and Best Buggy I owed around year old had that connection but I not seen it on the wall and I have described it too you Yellow with Wolf ar Bear🐻
Hi rckicks! Im new to rc and im thinking of getting into the hobby, although i heard that rc is expensive. I saw a few rc cars with tt02 chassis at a tamiya store a few weeks ago, and im just wondering if its an easy to build chassis. I have a bit of building experience as i have played with mini 4wd before.

I would never suggest any tamiya as a first RC. They are so expensive and fragile compared to the contemporary marketplace. Calling any tamiya "bomb proof" is a hilarious and disingenuous statement. People new to RC need to understand this is what a fanboy looks like. I'm not saying it's bad, when I want to see a certain tamiya car I watch this dude. He knows tamiyas inside and out. When I want objectivity I do not watch this guy. I'm just looking out for newbies. If you buy a tamiya for your first RC you won't have a good time 9 times out of 10. Once you get it built, probably after breaking several fragile pieces on assembly, it's fun for about 30 seconds then it requires more money. Then you end up with an upgraded car that explodes if a stiff breeze hits it.
The fragile part: *could agree* Expensive?: 93$ USD for a rising fighter could be worth it… it’s literally a *asshopper* reskin but like *5-7* dollars cheaper
I don't disagree but this video was more focused on the person who wanted to try building a kit build car for the first time, over just opening the box.
we have 2 local hobby shops where i live.... One is a great shop, the other is a Chain Shop that is more of a Joke of a Toy Store......Oh and the Chain place rips everyone off.....
I get excited about gavin's videos also shoot he talks to u so it makes u more interested and he is humble I did a shitty paint job on one of my cars he still gave me positive feedback lol he's really kool
Going to say the esc . Some if its a brushless one could be a case of only having forwards.. and no reverse.. something that might need a program card. The same for like as example a hobbywing 1080. Used in crawlers. That it can be programmed to run a certain way. More power or less . Electronic brakes..
You nailed this one , this is going to help so many newbies go deeper into the hobby.
No need to apologize for the voice when you’re standing right next to a giant word that says “ASSHOPPER” We are all giving you a like!
I just bought my first and cant wait for my hornet to come in the mail. But dang, that Porsche looks nice
Great Video, well explained!

People new to RC need to understand this is what a fanboy looks like. I'm not saying it's bad, when I want to see a certain tamiya car I watch this dude. He knows tamiyas inside and out.

Expensive?: 93$ USD for a rising fighter could be worth it… it’s literally a *asshopper* reskin but like *5-7* dollars cheaper
I built my Tamiya Lunch Box back at the start of 2020. It is still in one piece and no broken parts during construction either.
I like how you said the Stick one is a bit Harder....
Wait so everything you need is not in the god dammed box??
RTR kits have everything apart from some AA batteries for the controller. Most Tamiya and Kyosho kits you have to build yourself and fit electronics.
You forgot to mention that the 2.4 Transmitters don't interfere with each other like the old days of having only a few available frequencies
If your new to rc you should get a traxxas slash rtr you can run the piss out of it any ware !
