Looks like Gavin was down in the trenches getting all that work done that's awesome happy to see your new event for your Avante I'm a top Fanboy to the end I like the wheels bold but stylish and the color is not all that bad either they should have did those in gold Superstar Racetrax
Nice build video, the chassis goes together pretty easily. Can't say I'm a fan of the DF-02 chassis, but it's got a lot of potential as far as I can see.
I run mine with a Leopard brushless 10T, plastic motor mount, handles the power really well and everything still fine. Only broken front tower. Recently bought metal bling parts as they are getting harder to find.
I am lucky enough to now have the full 1/10th Avante family. 1988 Avante, Vintage Egress, 2001 Avante, Vanquish, Vajra, 2011 Avante, 2013 Egress, Avante Black, Avante Mk2, Aero Avante and VQS. Not all of them are perfect yet but I'm working on it.
Hi Gavin. I am toying with the idea of getting a tamiya 1/10 and putting 3s lipo and brushless in it. Assuming I hop up the drive train, would the rest of it destroy itself or is it possible? I have a stampede for bashing and after a rapid flat car.
@@RCKickschannel something kinda like this avanti you built on this video. I don't want a pure flat carpet racer type so something that I can run on a normal road. It doesn't need to be tamiya to be honest but something where the base kit is acceptable but the chassis is good enough to go a bit mad with when a few after parts are added.
@@RCKickschannel thanks. Just had a look round and it's out of stock. Looks like a good candidate though as it looks like it has a good chassis to build on.
Nice looking Build Gavin 😎

Front universal shaft is a must upgrade! After 4 years, motor mount still holding fine. I still run it time to time up till today, and I love it!

I've just finished the build. Next video will be out tomorrow.
Good video really liked that showed the hop up choices and kept it in box form. Watching for part 2
Completes the collection - great video!
New studio looking great, well done you.
Cool video Gavin. Audio perfect👍 loving new studio
Voice quality needs some improvement and I plan on some audio changes for the next video.

Nice build
Thanks Bobby. Body painting today :)
Nice video mate, tamiya need to step up and get upto date with their battery sizes.
Hi u need a bar stool in there to sit at I think it b just rite height or 2 so both u can when u do the live streams m8 👍👍
I have one 👍🏻
Get some restoration projects on. More interesting than a new build.
I've built so many Tamiya TT01 cars I reckon I could build this without the instructions.
Nice kit, would fit perfect in your avante-family.

Thats awesome 👍
That would be my first unbuilding video 😂
Like the look of the new studio! But you need to sort out the acoustics…
100% agree, it’s really bad. I’ve got a few things I’m going to try for the next video

When you say flat car are you talking about a road car or flat dirt running car?

I would take a look at the Kyosho Turbo Optima

Sand scorcher or bust
Hey gavin are you going to get the Ford escort tt02
I have the full body set, wheels and decals but I didn’t want the chassis. I will fit it on another chassis
Do you build them for customers ?
No I don’t as it’s too expensive for people when you add in two shipping fees and the hours needed to build and paint a kit.
That defeats the purpose entirely. Build it yourself or buy a ready to run car.
Reminds me of the DF02 Gravel Hound I built once, lovely little chassis setup
Basically it’s the same thing with a different body and one or two different upgrades.
this is the same as the Rising Storm no?
Yes it’s the same kit , Aldo plasma edge 1 and gravel hound are all the same chassis ;)
wait,,,where's the finish? It ended just as you were getting to the body...
Body painting and running video coming tonight. At the end of the video, it did say coming soon 😜
@@RCKickschannel oops! I think the ads started before i heard that part. anyway...love the channel.
"unbuilding video" lol!
I make enough mistakes when building kits that I do spend a reasonable amount of time unbuilding :) LOL
Wow what a cheap looking chassis! wonder if the WLToys buggies are better for far less money lol
I paid £160 for the Aero Avante so yes you can get better for that amount of money. I wanted this kit for my Avante collection.
The DF-02 chassis came in 2004. The chassis is pretty durable except the front being a weak spot.
