  • Carl is super excited about the New Schumacher LD3 which is a long way from where we started with our budget racing with the FTX Vantage and Ftx Comet.
    A year of buggy racing and Carl still has not had a competitive car to race but he finally has his hands on the LD3M.
    You guys asked for a more details build video so here it is part 1 of the build..
    If you want to go for the stock version check it out rochesterrc.uk/schumacher-cou...
    more info on the schumacher website www.racing-cars.com/
    Massive thanks to Rochester RC, who are going to be helping us with the electrics for this amazing buggy. So if you want to get a LD3 use discount code: PopalongRC for a discount at the checkout : rochesterrc.uk/link/popalongrc

    Great build video! Nice bit of kit - love my LD2 Stock Spec. Schumacher builds are all about staple management and I wish they find another way to seal the parts bag although I’m going contradict myself here and say that is quite satisfying opening the bags and removing the staples 🤣

      Still finding staples a week later

    Lil tip. I like to empty parts bags into old plastic takeaway cartons (washed of course). Avoids any small items going walkies off under the table and under the beer fridge never to be seen again.

    • @PopalongRC
      @PopalongRC  8 месяцев назад

      I normally do that but with it being one little bag at a time I found it easier this way

      I like to tip everything out on the bench and spend hours looking for the bits and rebuilding multiple times for bits I’ve missed out 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

    That steering hop up part was full of bling this car looks great. I think when I go to the Netherlands for work soon I will get one delivered to our HQ then take back to Malaysia.

    Nice build so far Boss! Building it yourself at least you don't have to worry that Mark has made any mistakes that will show up on race day!

    • @PopalongRC
      @PopalongRC  8 месяцев назад

      True but then I need to trust that I have not made any mistakes

    Turn buckles, my god my fingers wasn’t happy doing them on the dirt master 😂
    looks like it goes together very well and the instructions so far are clear to follow.

    If you weigh in the staples at the end of the build, you'll get half your money back!
    I love my LD2, but it's way better than i can drive it

    Looking to get an LD3 for mainly Grass outdoor racing, would you recommend the M or D for this?

    • @PopalongRC
      @PopalongRC  8 месяцев назад

      I’d imagine D but not run much on grass so can’t confidently say …
