Tamiya XV01 vs XV02 Round 2: Rally Race-Off - Who Wins?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 окт 2024
- Hi and welcome to this video where we pit the Tamiya XV-01 head-to-head against the new Tamiya XV-02 Pro! The race is on a tight and twisty off-road rally course with plenty of elevation changes and loose and bumpy terrain!
Both cars are totally stock, and as the XV-01 comes with a 27T silver can motor, I fitted the same to the XV-02 Pro so it was an even contest.
As you will see in this video, the XV-02 has a greater ride-height and suffers from more body-roll than the XV-01 (and consequently more roll-overs!) - I think this is down to the longer TRF shocks and the higher C-of-G in the XV-02 due to battery placement. Check out the XV02 chassis spec here: • Tamiya XV02 Pro vs XV0...
The XV-02 also seems to torque steer due to the propshaft driven differentials as opposed to the belt drive on the XV01 that eliminates that.
I hope you enjoy the comparison, it's just a bit of fun but I think it does highlight some of the differences between the chassis.
More head-to-heads coming soon!
Many thanks to Rob @robbrennanrc for the help making this video and of course to my friend Gary for loaning his XV02 Pro to the channel for these tests.
Note: The XV02 Pro comes in kit form and does not include a motor, body shell or any electronics. We are using Gary's basher Subaru body and I fitted a standard servo and 27 turn silver can so that the spec of the XV02 is the same as the XV01 for a fair comparison.

I think we all win with this one! Getting to see them running around and hearing the tow of you laughing and having fun was a win for me!! They both look great out there and it was a fun one to watch!
That's a great sentiment, Addam, thank you! You know that Rob and I always take things lightly in this hobby. The cars sure do look cool strutting their stuff on the track as they were made to do! Best wishes from both of us, dude! :))
Hi Mark and Rob. It's a little bit unusual that the older version performces slightly better and is more durable. But the outtakes show you both had fun and that's the keypoint😁
Hiya Dirk! Yes, the older version sure still runs as good as new. I think the new car needs a bit more time to set-up properly but I think it has a lot of potential. Glad you enjoyed the outtakes, I hope we made you smile my friend! Cheers! :))
The CKG RC channel also added spacers to the XV-02 steering ball joint improve bump steer and also changed suspension hole position for much better handling.
Thanks for sharing. Interesting to know that a little mod can improve the car, I think the XV02 could be a lot better with just a few tweaks!
Wahey!!
The dynamic duo back again! 🤣
What better way to spend a Friday night-
Tamiya XV01 / 2's, rallying, Mark and Robs humour, and a few 8.4 % ciders!!
Great track/landscape there guys, and a great sense of realism.... even the crashes look very realistic as they plunge off the hillside into the valley below!
Loving this series of videos Mark, it's been most useful for me in determining my next model to buy!
You and RC Dom have helped steer me towards the XV01, which genuinely seems to be the slightly better chassis of the two!
And, the vision will be completed using the Audi quattro body shell I think!
Cracking content as always guys!
👍 👍 👍 👍 😊
Hey-hey mate! Yup, you can't keep us away! Great to hear you enjoyed it along with a well deserved bevvy or three!
Yeah, this was a great location for these two beauties, pity it's quite a jaunt from where I live. We spent ages trying to find a good area for the run closer to home but failed miserably!
You can't go wrong with an XV01, especially as it's so much cheaper than the 02. I love mine to bits. And the Quattro A2 is a perfect body for this, especially with those 6 spotlights lit up!!!
All the best, matey!
Yup, I think skittish is the issue on the 02... I noticed on the sharp corners, it would throw out the rear too much and then it took a while to regain the speed out of the corner. The 01 was more tight, as I saw it. But then again, I had the times delivered as I watched. The 02 looked very fast and made it around the course with more drama!
Speaking of drama, lots of Epic Rob commenting as usual in there, ha ha!
Great Saturday morning entertainment for me, have a lovely weekend there, my friend!
Hi Mads, yep I think you called this one correctly! I had trouble keeping the 02 in line after a turn, I think I was over-compensating for the drift. I'm sure that with some fine-tuning the 02 could be a lot better, but i think it was fair to keep each car with the stock settings. Yeah, the 01 definitely felt slow in comparison...
Haha, I love Rob's commentary and especially the laughs!
Glad you enjoyed it mate, hope all is well with you this weekend and and take care!
Hiya matey and happy Friday to you. Well I did enjoy that and am feeling pleased that my prediction that the XV-01 would have the best times was correct. It just seems easier to point in the right direction than the XV-02 from what I've seen. I think that the XV-02 is more tunable so maybe it can be made easier to drive? Also I know that with the rally cars, extra ground clearance means that they roll over too easily. My TA-01 was hopeless until I lowered it. Anyway great vid and love Rob's reactions. Always good fun. Like I was saying it's a great area for the cars with the different levels and that also works well for the video. Hope all is well mate. Cheers for now 😁
Hi Pete and happy Friday to you too, mate! Hope your week went well. I'm glad you were correct, and you are right that it's easier to handle and is certainly the more predictable of the two. I have looked around and can't find too many other detailed comparisons of these chassis (except for Rex of course) and he says the 02 is designed to be more agile and skiddish! And yeah, top heavy is not what you need on a narrow rally car or it's "Mr Tumble Time"!!! We hope to come back to this track as it's bloody great for rallying, but it's a few miles away from home. It was worth it all just to hear Rob laughing! Wishing you a cracking weekend, matey - cheers! :))
Smashin footage, great commentary Rob..
Many thanks Derek, oh yeah Rob was on point with the camera, the commentary AND the laughter! Cheers! :D
Wow mate, Id forgotten about this. No wait I think it was more like Blocked it out of my memory we did that many takes hehehe. Great editing and time travel dude.
Hehe I know what you mean my friend 😉 . I think we did a bit of a marathon that day! But at least we had a great laugh at the same time! Thanks for being there dude 🙏 🙌, couldn't do it without you mate! 😁✌👊
Impressive lap times fellas! I absolutely love this racing course! Such a great array of hills, slopes , corners and straight away. Your outtakes at the end are hilarious! It’s great to hear laughter among chaps! Happy Holidays to you both gentleman! 🎄🎉🙌🏽
Many thanks, Robby! Great to know you enjoyed our little track, it was set-up sort of spur of the moment but was awesome to drive (when I eventually got used to it!) Happy Holidays to you too brother! :))
Brilliant work chaps! The XV01 does look better out on the laps there which is really surprising.
It must be down to the balance of the car with the weight being at the front. Great work as always fella 🙌🏻👍🏻
Totally agree, fella! I was expecting the XV01 to be the car hanging the back end out, but it proved to be the opposite! You can't go wrong with either of these beauties though! Have a smashing weekend dude! :))
You may have done nothing wrong Mark, the xv-02 was intended to be more agile/skiddish making it much more of a handful to drive , great job Rob following the cars!!
Many thanks for your input, Rex, you are the man that knows! It certainly feels more agile and skiddish, for sure! You saw me struggling with it my friend! Great fun all the same. Take care, bro! :))
I think I love this so much because YOU GUYS have so much fun out there. Great video guys. Really enjoyed watching those cars flipping and bouncing all over the track lol THumbs up
Hi Nick 👋 and thanks for the great comment! 👍 Well we sure get on like a house on fire 🔥 🙃 and Rob always starts me laughing! Oh yeah the cars were good fun on that little track as well! Take care bro 🙏 ✌👍
Hi there Mark and a great head to head there my friend, boy! Did you make Rob work hard that day! He did a great job keeping you in camera frame 😊😊😊 his and your reactions where captured in the audio, and to me, summed the event tremendously! Your guys are amazing. I had predicted in my mind, the XV01 was slightly quicker overall. Great work again, from my dynamic duo! Have a great weekend, take care and best wishes to you all 😁😁😉😉
Hello 👋 John and many thanks as always 😊. Hehe, yeah I did give Rob a hard time didn't I? 😅 I thought he was gonna punch me after I crashed into the abyss for the umpteenth time! 🤣
Well done with your prediction, mystic John! Hope your weekend is going well too, take care my friend! 😎 🤝✌👍
Fantastic review guys really enjoy little favour would you also compare it to a rally made tt02 or tt01e chassis?
Thanks dude! We'll try, do you want to see the XV01 or XV02 against a TT02? Cheers! :)
@@MarkBryanRC thanks guys keep up the great work!! 👍
We'll try! Thanks again, much appreciated! :D
That would be great. I've a TT-02 set for rally but keep eying up both XV's as a next step.
Cool that you have a TT02 for rallying! I have already done a series of the TT02 vs XV01, here is a link to the first race-off, you should be able to find all the other videos on my channel - cheers!

Hi Mark, you guys did a great job of showing how fun these awesome RCs are. I would have guessed the Subaru was faster but the Lancia was the better car on this course. I love this rally rc series you and Rob are doing. Take care!
Hi Paull and great to hear that you're enjoying this series. As you know, rally cars are some of my favourite RC rigs and making these videos is a pure pleasure for me! The Subaru was definitely faster in a straight line, but more difficult to control. Hope you and your family are well, take care too, Bro! :)
This is two great cars. You seems to had good time doing this race and it shows on the screen. I really enjoy this one!
So pleased that you enjoyed this one, Mathieu! We certainly had a great time making the video, more Smiles Per Hour!!!
I just got my XV-02 and am building it. To me the XV-01 looks to be more planted and controlled . Great video lots of fun!
Hope you enjoy it! Yes in this video the XV01 was more controlled but I'm sure if you start tuning the suspension on the XV02 you'll be able to get it dialled in much better! Best of luck with it! 😎👌👍
Finally the video! thanks.. i was waiting for it
i just finished building my xv-01... decided to go with xv01 as it was about 60 pound cheaper than xv02 with shell included
Thank you too! Glad you liked it, and I think you made a good choice! All the best from Mark...
Awesome vid guys great little track you got there 🚴👍👍🚴🤩🏅
Thanks a ton, Pete, yeah this turned out to be almost perfect terrain for a rally, maybe a bit too lumpy in places though! Cheers, mate!👍
That was fun!! they are so close it could be the grease in one is more or one motors a bit faster even the body shell can make a slight of a difference. So close they are both great cars!
You are right, Steve! Both great, and the designs are so different that they are bound to handle differently. I bet if it were another driver, the results would be different, too! Cheers! :))
What a terrific sho-down! I look forward to getting my hands on that pair 01-02 at some point to do the very same thing. Cheers1
Hi there dude, great to hear that you enjoyed the show! Yep, either one of these rally cars would put a smile on your face 😀! All the best and cheers 🍻 to you too 👍
That was excellent, top work lads, loving the crash and burn footage reminded me of the old dukes of hazard show 😂
You'll be needing some new bodyshells soon 👍
Many thanks, glad you enjoyed those crashes, too! Hehe, yeah, good job I keep a couple of spare bodies for Sunday best! Cheers! :))
Nice one Gents, above and beyond as always, and thank you Gary. Interesting the dog bones popping out, if memory serves when upgrading the 01 with GF01 damper set for max ride height on the 01 before the steering can bind when suspension is fully extended, the rear dog bones could pop out over very bumpy ground, but that was once the suspension was upgraded, not fresh out of the box, I'm sure like an xv01, the 02's price could almost double when going all out on upgrades, and this is my problem, I would be disappointed to spend £330 and to know it needs basics like uj's out of the box (and I do mean basics, it is almost 2023, and this is the new premium/flagship off road chassis). To end on a positive, (don't want to sound like a hater) i sure we haven't seen the xv02 really shine yet, hopefully Tamiya has given us another quality chassis that can do everything but needs setting up more for that preferred discipline. I haven't gone looking for much 02 footage, but would be interesting to see both compared over very low grip conditions, i expect the 02 to be more predictable, i think with the overdrive in rear could make an excellent drift car (not something i'm into but would expect easier/better results with tuning a 02 over the 01, especially for average driver) and given the dedication of the 1/10 rally fans on the forums it's only a matter of time before the 02 magic unleased, again thanks for taking the time and making the effort to try and answer the questions we need to know.
Cheers and best wishes.
Hi there and many thanks for the interesting comment, it's much appreciated here! I'm keeping my 01 pretty stock but I do have a set of UJ's (donated by The OAG RC) and a Sport Tuned to fit at some point. I think the 02 does have UJ's, but it was the dogbone end popping out of the diff output cup that was causing the problem with this 02. But yes, I did think you'd get more hop-ups included with the 02 considering it's hefty price tag, and yeah, you could easily break £650 with a few more options, blooming crazy for an RC car if you ask me! And it doesn't even come with a body shell or motor!!! I also agree with your positive points though, I think that with some (cheap) tweaking it could be a lot better. Personally I'd lower the suspension a little and have a play with the toe and camber settings, but as I said in the video, the whole point was to run both cars in the stock setup. I have looked and can't find much in the form of comparisons here on the tube, except for REX RC's @rexdlu who seems to agree (basically!) with my experiences with the 02.
It would also be fun to experiment with the overdrive settings, yeah that could have some interesting results! As you say, I'm sure we'll see more on the forums soon.
Thanks again for taking the time to share your thoughts and for your supportive words! Cheers and best wishes to you too! :))
I think the XV01 drivers had some Martini samples before they got started, so they were a little more "loosey-goosey" on the track, taking the win! Lol! - Great video dude!
😂😅 Haha, you know my rally drivers spend too much time down the pub! But this time it seemed to help them relax and "get into the groove"!!! It was a ton of fun doing this comparison, we all love a "VS" shootout! Cheers dude! 🍻👊😎👍
hello mark , i realy love wenn you do that typs of race :)
Hello Many, great to read you - thanks very much my friend! :)
More classic timeless content 👍🏼 loads of fun and interesting to see the result. One day I will get a rally car, can't believe I still don't own one, feel the shame 😆 ps. I need some Rob Cannes laughter for when I need cheering up. Dear Santa....
Hiya Damian and thanks for that, you are very kind! It certainly means a lot coming from another creator 🙏 as you know this looks like a fun 10 minute video that took tons of planning, travelling, setting up, hours of filming and editing... and then someone comments simply "body posts are to long" 🤣🤣🤣 So I truly appreciate your comment! Oh yeah, I need to get working on that tape recording project of Rob's laughter, just in time for Christmas 🎄 I think I could make a few quid selling those! 😁✌👍👍 Cheers 🍻
@@MarkBryanRC It's hard getting time to produce content and stay on top of life at the same time. You have a strong catalogue of videos behind you and in front no doubt 👍🏼
So true, mate! About the content that is, but no, I ain't in front, video is usually edited the day before uploading!!! 🤣
Excellent video Mark, the xv02 did look visibly quicker on camera,I'd honestly take either of these chassis's as they look alot of fun and pretty rugged,loved the outtakes 👌have a great weekend mate👍
Yep, the XV02 certainly seemed to get a move on! It must be the newer motor , but the extra speed also made it harder to control! Agreed, they are both worth having if you can afford the higher prices. Thanks for the comment and good wishes, same to you my friend! 👍
3 seconds quicker is a big win in real competition terms. Great fun video Mark 👍
Thanks Tibster, very true my friend, I've seen real rallies lost by only a fraction of a second! All the best, matey!👍
Hiya, cracking video guys enjoyed it as always , I actually though from the footage the xv01 ride the bumps better , definitely more stable. Maybe with tuning the xv02 comes into its own and wound out preform the xv01 ? 🤔 time will tell. Great job 👏
Hiya Andy and thanks for the great comment. It's a strange one, on paper the 02 has the best suspension, but as I said, both are dialled in as per the manual. Definitely agree that with some tuning the 02 could be a lot better, it sure has potential. Thanks again, take care, fella. 👍
I really love the Subbie 22B Tamiya body. :)
Me too! I do like most of the versions of the Subaru rally cars that Tamiya make, they are all classics! :O)
Hi from Dublin Ireland 🇮🇪, brilliant video very good 👍 cool cars 🚙 🚗 brilliant of road driving
Thank you John in Dublin! Much appreciated by me in Birmingham! 👍
@@MarkBryanRC your welcome
brill im impressed with the driving
Thanks Mark, that means a lot as some folk have criticized my erratic driving! All the best, dude! 🙏😊👍
The old girl still got it ! great series. Great cars and video 😊👍
Glad you enjoyed it matey! Oh yeah, the old XV01 can still pick up her skirts and run! With a nippier motor it would be no contest! Have a great weekend, dude! :))
Would be good to see the MK2 Escort MFX-01X racing these two.
Cheers, that's a great idea! The XV02 has to go back to it's owner soon but I could do a comparison with the XV01 and TT02. Thanks!
Awesome video!!! Part way through now, Looks like you enjoy the xv-01 more so far,
Thanks for tuning in my friend! Hope you are enjoying the video, well, I am finding the XV01 easier to drive but they are both awesome! :D
Nice job mate, thanks for your upload 👍🙏🐱
Thank you too, Cat! You know that I have to wish you a great weekend, my friend, it's a tradition between us every Friday! Long may it continue, mate! :)
I would love to see a rematch with the 02 overdriven front axle, I would wager it will be a lot less a handful.
Yeah, that would be an interesting rematch! Sadly though, I had to return the lovely XV02 to its owner. My friend Craig at the OAG RC has one now though, so we might be able to set something up for the summer. Cheers!
Cool video man
Thanks very much dude!
Nice race . love this wish you have fun . like and subbed you
Thank you so much, really appreciated here! :))
Both have a place my friend (I never drove the XV-02), but I cant help wonder if the XV02 center spur gear may have changed the gear ratio (I cant remember if they both are using the same size pinion). Are the diff gears the same size from kit to kit? Look at you Mate, 9.58k subs!!!!!!! ATB my friend, to You & Yours!!!
Hi Bob! Both sure do have a place! Not sure about the gear ratios mate, I'd have to check. But the 02 I'm testing accelerates faster and has more top speed than the 01 so I'm putting it down to the motor! Hehe, yeah, 9.60k subs today - how the hell did that happen to little old me?!?!?!?! Cheers brother, best to you guys too as always! :))
cool video with the 2 rally chassis from tamiya! cheers!
Thanks very much, they are both great rally chassis! Cheers! 👍
4:48 triple roll got me bad 😂
Haha! 🤣 yeah that was some roll! Thanks for watching, dude! 😎👌👍
I don't know about rally cars, but with all this Time Travelling you need a DeLorean mate - that would be cool. Anyway Marty, I'm pleased the Integrale outpaced the Impreza, but who would have thought it ? Watching the footage I couldn't see a difference in speed, but the XV-01 cornering looked a little tighter to me, so maybe that caused the time difference. Speaking of time phenomena - I wrote this comment 2 days ago....🤣😉. Have a good weekend dude...👍🏻👍🏻.
Haha, you make me laugh, dude! Always great humour in your comments and much appreciated here! Yes, I did flit around the present, past and future didn't I? Well, mate, the XV01 just feels like it knows where to go and the XV02 was the DeLorean of the two! Speaking of which, you must have one too if you wrote this 2 days ago!!!! I tell you what, lets meet up back in 1986 and we can give the "just released" Monster Beetle it's first run! Thanks as always, hope it's going well for you! :))
@@MarkBryanRC Now that would be cool...😎👍🏻.
I wonder if the times could be impacted by the gearing, the XV-02 is geared slower than the 01 out of the box
Hi Peter, yes the gearing may have an effect on the speed for sure, but the XV02 definitely felt faster in both acceleration and top speed, need to get the speed meter out! :)
That was awesome, looked like a barrel load of fun!! The XV02 looked faster, just shows that looks can be deceiving....
Hi Barry and thanks for tuning in dude! Yep, these little rally cars are a real hoot to drive, especially on a tricky little course like this! You got it, we thought the XV02 was way faster, too! All the best! :))
Grt chassis. love the XV-O1 For it's motor placement.
The XV-02 pro for it 's high quality build.
Very nice rally rc car video 😊👍
Thank you so much 😀
Hi brother, nice rc rally game 👍👍👍👍👍, I like, Big like video
Thank you brother, I hope you are well!👍
great video, you look like you had a great laugh filming it :)
Thanks, Andy, you got that right, more smiles per hour with a Tamiya XV chassis! Cheers! :D
XV-02 seems sensitive to steering inputs, maybe try turning the dual rate down.
Good point, Craig! It sure did feel more sensitive than the XV01...
The01 seems more nimble and as u say the 02 looks faster great vid 👍😎
Yep, I agree with that, Chris. Thanks mate!👍
The XV-01 still winning, but not surprised as if I was going to buy one it would be that.
Spot on, dude, and yeah, I think that would be money well spent! :)
Great to see some more comparisons between these two cars. Good driving and nicely handling cars but I think I could give you a run for your money with my TT02😂 hopefully you got to race in the snow and all the best mate:)
Hiya mate! I am pretty sure you and your TT02 could beat this old man and his XV cars! It would be awesome to meet up and have a blast one day! The snow has gone now, hoping to get a run in with the XV01 if it snows again! Cheers! :))
Yeah it would be nice to have a blast one day! Do you know of any rc meet-ups because I would quite like to try going to one. It would be nice to get to meet more people in this hobby:)
@@fireuprc5693 Cool mate, but I don't know of any meet-ups at the moment. We are thinking of setting one up in the summer, will let you know! :))
Ooh yes that would be great thanks! Do you know of any good forums for that kind of thing?
Ooh yes that would be great thanks! Do you know of any good forums for that kind of thing? Cheers
Hi Mark, I have a question for you lol, did tamiya do an xbs holiday buggy from the 80 s, sorry to be random. Cheers. Paul
Hi Paul, the original Holiday Buggy was released in 1980 but I don't know what the chassis was called, never heard of XBS. The chassis had torsion bar suspension and an open gearbox!
The new Holiday Buggy is on the DT02 chassis, and they did do an XB (expert built) version. Sorry but that's all I know, dude! :)
Thanks Mark I've got one that has metal bar on chassis and has metal cover over engine and Gearbox but has a big plastic front wing never seen one ever on all the pictures I'v seen and no screws just pins and c clips
Wow, that chassis sounds a bit special! Looks like some serious research is needed! All the best! :))
Nice!
Cmon, rally cars, still on-road stuff, not off-road ...
Thanks! But seriously, you think this track was a road track? No Tarmac or asphalt in sight!
Do we get a part 3 or do we keep going until xv02 wins something. Great driving by the way 😊
Thanks Ian, what do you reckon? Should we keep going or leave it here? 🤔 From where I'm standing it looks like the XV01 has the edge, but in this game you never can tell!!! All the best my friend 😁✌👊
@@MarkBryanRC to be honest the new chassis should have been a winner straight out the box. But I think should it be going back to its owner. It as been a honest review great job. Have a great weekend 👍😃
Cheers Ian, I think you are correct! A smashing weekend to you too! :))
Great video, ya had me cracking up 😂.
😁Glad to hear we made you smile! All the best!
Hi Mark hope all is well. I would like to find out how many LED LIGHTS can be used on a rc car. I would use the ESC LIKE u did. Thanks
Hi there! We are doing OK thanks! If you wire LEDs directly to the battery power cable on the ESC you could safely wire many LEDs without significantly reducing battery power, 20 LEDs would be fine.
However, if you wire to the receiver the available power is much lower, I'd say a max of 8 LEDs.
I hope this helps. :)
@@MarkBryanRCThank YOU. HOW SAFE IS IT TO USE THE ESC POWER CABLE
@@aviramlucken6475 LEDs only use a tiny amount of current, so it's completely safe to connect them to the ESC power cable. Just ensure that the wires are correctly insulated (no bare wire uncovered).
@@MarkBryanRC THANK YOU WILL DO THIS AN LET YOU KNOW WHEN I'M DONE
What scale are those? 😊
1/10 scale! 😎👌👍
That doesn't show anything if you want to really see how fast the car is hook up a GPS to it and do Straight runs.
Yes, but I wanted to find out which was the best handling! 😎👍
I don't know if it was same driver for both cars,But everything the xv-02 overshot every turn and was all over the place. Noway the xv-01 was faster....
Yes it was the same driver. Yes the 02 did overshoot more, but as I said it was harder to drive...
...and yes the 01 was faster! :)
what cameras do you use on the cars to film
There is a mix of Sony handycam and gopro hero 7 and maybe some shots from my Samsung phone!
@@MarkBryanRC thanks i love the videos, reason why is your not after 100 cars or showing off anything like some others do, you put passion and heart into rc and so does rob dont want to forget him lol
Thanks a ton, that really does mean a lot to me! Oh yeah, can't forget my partner in crime!!! Cheers! 🙏😁👍

IDK!?!?!?! 😂
I think xv02 should have won.
Well, you thought wrong, Brad!!!! :P
...but thanks for watching and sharing your opinions, buddy! Sorry if my other answer was a bit short! :)
Those body posts are to tall.
It's not my car and I'm not cutting them down, I said in the video that it was on loan to me, Brad!!!

found a great course there marky well driven guys always good to watch some rally blasting action !!
Thanks brudda Dave, yeah we were lucky to stumble over this area of grass and gravel, such a perfect little rally track just lying there! Glad you enjoyed it matey, have a cracking weekend there! 👍
Cool vid Mark. Just something I picked up on in this vid and previous ones , what's clicking on the xv02 when driving? Appreciate possible gravel hitting bodyshell but it sounded more like the drive train clicking
Hi Dave and thanks a ton! Yeah, I heard the clicking now and then, I think it must be those pesky front driveshafts that kept popping out! All the best, dude! :))
@@MarkBryanRC sounds like the vintage Kyosho Tomahawk I am doing up. Alot of wear in all the links , drive cups etc. Fired up the mabuchi black can and under 3/4 to full throttle dog bones are really loose and click badly lol
Sounds like some new parts are required there, Dave! Hope it's not too expensive!
@@MarkBryanRC you know mine are all shelf queens so will be leaving as is for now. Don't want to loose too many original bits . May change if I find bits at decent prices. 80s kyosho bits are fun to find lol. Emailed you some pics
