    I have watched these uploads out of order. And I can’t believe the kit handles that well.
    The most simplistic design, and fit out. You have a convert here Mark.
    Stay safe and well 👍🤓🇦🇺

      Thanks, Paul, I'm just grateful that you watched them! Yeah, for such a basic layout, it's surprisingly agile! I'm very glad to have it in my collection and will definitely choose it to take for a run over some of my other cars! Take care, too, my friend! :O)

      Thanks, my mate! Well, I got a lot of spare time as I'm still on sick leave, stuck in the house :-/
      At least these builds keep me occupied. Definitely enjoying my non-Birthday presents!
      And the cockpit will be more of a cover than a real cockpit. I need to find a driver with some arms!!! All the best, my good friend. 👍

    10:46 "Easier said than done."..🤣 - too right mate. Oh how I've struggled with that particular fitting over the years, but a great feeling when you feel those screws bite. Glad you did a build video of this one as it brings back memories from 2004 when I built mine ( long since gone. ) As you'll know back then mine came with a MSC and needed an extra servo. I'm so glad Tamiya brough in ESC's shortly thereafter. I was genuinely surprised when you started building the shocks as I have absolutely no recollection of doing oil filled shocks on mine. Memory must be going..🙄. Thanks for the memories dude and cannot wait to see this one completed and running. #blackbeauty....cue the music...👍🏻👍🏻.

    • @MarkBryanRC
      @MarkBryanRC  3 года назад +1

      Hey mate - yeah, a lot in this hobby is easier said than done! I find brushless motors ever harder to fit as they don't have that collar near the spindle. Oh those MSC's - I loved the way you could go from full forward throttle to full reverse in a fraction of a second! Probably didn't do the car much good though! But modern ESC's sure give a lot more control.
      On the shock front, I think the oil shocks are part of the special edition features. Could be wrong!
      Thanks for taking the time to write all these interesting messages, always a pleasure, mate! :)

    Quick tip, you can put Tamiya Anti Wear Grease on the spider gears inside the diff to make it limited slip, you can do this to all Tamiya gear diffs for better performance 👍

    • @MarkBryanRC
      @MarkBryanRC  3 года назад

      Great tip! I use the AW grease on my rally car diffs and it works well - was tempted to do it on this one, but went with normal grease, can always change it later! All the best from Mark... :)

    Hiya matey. This was a lovely treat before dinner 😁 Looks like a nice simple build but always room for some Mark Bryan top tips along the way. I think that your plan for a cockpit looks very nice. Should be a fun one to race around the trees with Rob when you can get out. I've been carrying on with the Wild Willy build today. Mainly finished but a few bits to do and a load of editing. Anyway fish and chips in the oven and I needs to get the beans on the go. Enjoy your Saturday mate. Look after yourself 😁

      Hiya Pete - glad you watched and thought it was a treat, only that can be said by a true Tamiya fan! I'm the same, I can relax to a nice RC build video too! Yes, this buggy will be good for a few little races, against a Rising Fighter, I think could be fun. Especially as our RF's are hopped-up, should be a close thing. Wow, I love a bit of fish & chips - lots of salt and vinegar for me please! Hope all is good with you down South - take it easy, mate! :)

    Hi Mark i love your videos! I got a tmayia terrer schorcher for christmas last year. It has been used quite a lot is dirty. The gear box seams to be sounding weard too. Would the car be needing a re greaseing and rebuild? Is it ok to take the gear box apart? Would the suspension be needing re olied because it seams to be leaking out. Is it ok to strip aprt your rc car or is that bad for it? Thanks

    • @MarkBryanRC
      @MarkBryanRC  3 года назад

      Hi Jamie, as I said in my other reply, it is good to rebuild a kit after a lot of use. However, if there is a concern, like a strange noise, I'd definitely strip it down to investigate. Just be careful to find the threads when re-inserting the screws, you can do this by "backscrewing" - very slowly turn the screw the wrong way until you feel the thread click into place and then screw in normally. If the suspension is leaking, also take off the shock caps and top up with oil. Hope this helps - cheers!

    I'm becoming more impressed with this Kit! Might be a quite simple one, and a Grasshopper rethink....
    But some things they just got RIGHT!! 👍👍
    Sure, it's very simple. But balanced Steering with a Bellcrank and a CENTRAL Steering Pivot?
    The Hopper, CW-01, ORV Chassis...... In fact most of the first 100 from Tamiya SHOULD have been designed that way!
    And the DIFF!!??? 😲😞
    I can SEAL that!! A thick Lube in a novice Buggy... It could really work.
    I shall write more later. I'm uncharacteristically TIRED! Take good care my Brother! Stay SAFE out there. 😷

    • @MarkBryanRC
      @MarkBryanRC  3 года назад +1

      Hey mate - yep, this is a cool kit for sure! A cinch to put together, very agricultural, but that's it's charm! Looks awesome with the body on. The steering needs sorting as it has that slop that you hate! Hope you get some rest, take care, my friend! :))

    • @CarminesRCTipsandTricks
      @CarminesRCTipsandTricks 3 года назад +1

      Mate, I would have been surprised if it DIDN'T have any slop! I'm certain that it can be sorted easily with aftermarket parts. 😉
      This was a bit pedestrian for your skill level... But I thought it was unique amongst starter Buggies. You might need something with more of a challenge!
      No matter what, I'm really curious about how it handles... Which I expect to be at least superior to a Hornet. I still want one - or a Mad Bull really, IF I can find one......
      I'm doing better, thanks. 😊 I'm prone to Tunnel Vision when I get excited about doing something - like my Semi!!! 😁😁
      I hadn't slept in over 3 days, and the old Body just said "NO! Stop and sleep now". So I got a forced rest.
      I'm just glad YOU'RE doing better!!! 👊 Keep it up!
