    A lovely blend of classic tamiya and modern technology. Even better that you filmed this on the beach. Thanks for uploading.

    I simply cannot imagine the Tamiya Brand without the Sand Scorcher, This is like having a Cult classic.

    Awesome! I had one of these over 35 years ago, used to love Tamiya stuff

    I like the sun gleam off the windshield at 4:08 and the wheelie 4:28 was very cool especially since it was a recovery. You have to get the shelf Queen dirty at least once that's the rules. I was debating buying one and now after seeing your video I will pull the trigger. Good music, good driving, and proper modeling make for a three thumbs up video.

      thanks buddy! i really appreciate the feedback especially positive ones!
      i love my sand scorcher, not that im using it much, but when i look at in in my display cabinet, it gives me a big smile :-) i may take it out soon!
      after all it is summer!

      I bought a Scorcher 2010 version just after I viewed and posted on your video, it will be here tomorrow. I am looking forward to building the model but only after I complete my Tamiya trf801x truggy. I think the Scorcher will be a nice relaxing driver for my daughter and I to toy with on the beach or even in between charging her bash-em-up cars. Thanks again for the video that inspired my purchase.

    interesting using that nimh with brushless,it looks almost tame compared to your 3s endevours :-p i think therein lies your answer, no need to go back to stock motor, use 9t brushless with nimh...possbily?

    Hi there ! Great Car ! Great paint job ! Well Build ! Do you have problems with intruding sand due to the modifications on the Engine Cover ?Do you have a heat problem with ESC in the RC Box ?Greetings from Germany !

    • @RcWebbo
      @RcWebbo  7 лет назад

      Thanks for the questions!
      No I don't have problems with sand or heat, I ensured that the cover was sealed using clear mastic.
      I always give it a clean after a day on the beach :-)

    hi there
    have been watching your vids with interest as i am putting the finishing touches to my sand scorcher(got stadium blitzer,fast attac
    k vehicle,xr311 and mini cooper)
    have already ordered the ali front bumper to replace the monstrosity that that tamiya supply
    the other problem i have like yourself is the dampers
    they are shit
    i notice you have replaced the rear dampers on yours in another video
    may i ask what with and where you got them please
    i looked at the rcchannel replacement dampers but fucked if i will pay £45 for them
    ps that losi looks awesome

    • @RcWebbo
      @RcWebbo  7 лет назад

      Andy Roberts your right about the Rc channel they are expensive, I replaced the oil in the front and put pen springs in and seem to do the job, I then used Tamiya tto1 suspension for the rear.
      I don't take it out anymore as it's a shelf queen with all original motor and springs :-)

      @andyroberts536 7 лет назад

      rcchannel.com sell them for £35 but postage to uk is a bit steep at £18

      i ordered mine off ebay :-)

      this is more a thing of beauty, than something to use on a regular basis, it really depends on what you want it for?
      it looks great in my display cabinet,but like an old car, you got to look after it and maintain it regular.
      its your call buddy?
      I love mine :-)

  • @bradkalman2353
    @bradkalman2353 3 года назад

    I see you change the front shock and spring on it do you still have this vehicle you ever thought of getting the other three vehicles on this chassis specially the one with the mono shock in the rear no shelf queens please what a waste of money in my eyes and opinion.

      RcWebbo I had a Mk 1 back in 1980 and although the first run was a LOT slower, I remember shedding both mirror and snapping the exhaust. At 15-years-old, I was mortified.

    Normally when you go to the beach you hear the wind and the waves.
    When you bring a car like that you hear.
    How fast does it go? Is that nitro? How much did it cost? Did you buy it like that? Where can I get one. Can I try it. How far can it go.Are you going to be hear tomorrow too? Do you come hear all the time.
    Then a second person comes along and asks the same questions.
    Answers,
    120mph, Not nitro ..atomic,...,$2,000, .. I built it but Jesus sold me the motor, ... You can get one in Venezuela but you'll need a passport, NO!,.. I can go all the way down the beach like 20 ft, ... No I will be hanging myself tomorrow, ... I used to.

It MUST be slow like a fuckin' turtle! And it's electric...never heard of a nitro scaler! But people out of this hobby i think it's normal for they making these stupid questions, even if sound really strange to us! :D

      you will not regret it! it was my favorite build, its a piece of art and if you decide not to use it, it looks great on a shelf! i have my one stored in a display cabinet. one word of advice. use the standard motor dont go brushless!

    • @NiallAllen
      @NiallAllen 10 лет назад

      Yeah, I never bother with brushless. So many videos and reports of tyres being stripped in minutes and cars being written off!
      I'm halfway through building it at the moment. A couple of things though, the suspension seems rather awkward and the plastic inserts are loose (the oval ones you connect the steering rods to), yet I can't see a mention of them being screwed down/in, but they must be (assuming this is later in the build) and the sealed unit the servos/receiver sit in, seems odd. Does it really just sit on the two rubber prongs? Seems to me it'll just wobble about, causing a lot of vibration issues! Unless there's something further down the line that secures the whole thing properly.
      Still, halfway through so chances are I have a lot more bits to attach!
