    My el cheapo generic 1/16 model is faster than this out of the box! Not really a great achievement... maybe for a Tamiya lol

      @Paul__FC  2 месяца назад +2

      Fast and cheap are 2 words never said with Tamiya. The challenge is speed. Or we would call it the "Speed Run Easy" You are more than welcome to join us in making slow cars go fast. The fun is in the effort as much as the results.

      @@Paul__FC thanks.for replying. The thing I like about Tamiya is their attention to detail. Their scale models of full size cars are the ones I like. I used to race superbikes so I like making anything go fast. Looking forward to seeing this car go brushless lol

    He he, awesome video, Paul, you should be in front of the camera more often! Cool paint job on that Beetle, and a nice story behind it, gotta love a messed up paint job!
    Nice run, good idea with the intro, I see Nick already watched the video, he he...
    Yeah, I'm that one single person in the entire RC community who isn't excited about that Evo Hornet thing, he he... Like you said, a lot are doing this already, and actually Yonghee Humble Village RC, he did similar on a Wild One, put a DT-02 gearbox on it, only he didn't call it Evo and make a big number out of it, ha ha!

      I'm prepping my beetle for the brushed category at the moment. I built it about a year ago now and I'm glad I've got an excuse to upgrade it. I'll probably start a new RC channel, as all my videos are motorbike stuff just now.
