My second hobby grade RC car! :D Bought it after my brother crashed my original Hornet into a wall lol, I remember also fitting my first ESC, a Novak Explorer II, and having smooth throttle response blew me away :o Thinking of getting a used one right now for about 150 USD for the nostalgia as well as the fun, just yesterday I bought a Tamiya VW Beetle with an ESC for 100 bucks, probably selling the FM radio it came it though, and the ESC isn`t LiPo safe so until I replace it, I`ll run it with a LiPo alarm :p
Again a great find and enjoyable video Adam. The shortage of supplies is a real frustration but I was informed of a possible Tamiya re-stock in Oz late this month.
i got my new super hornet from the tip and the transmitter wasn't there so i'm guessing they broke the radio and through out the car i have one new in box and all so have all the parts to make one um what paint did u use 1 2 3 thanks did the black came up normal back did it? or a different shad black i'm trying to restore my chassis grasshopper 2 i dont know much about paint i dont like the original shocks at all so i removed them and used the grasshopper 2 cva shocks the springs are much much better
@@RCACTIONAUSTRALIA thanks mate um is the black the same as the chassis thanks so if put them together they are the same black thanks u been a great help i just got the paint u used thanks
@@RCACTIONAUSTRALIA you know some people think that the rising fighter is the same vehicle is this one it's not true at all the rear ends different even the suspension is different they may have that same hook up in the back but the super hornet has more of an angled rear shock setup than the other. one.
@@RCACTIONAUSTRALIA yeah those people think that's why they're never going to release the super hornet there are different car because I say that was the super hornet re-release under different name and the bodies are different.
Ma première voiture RC magnifique ❤

Nice! Is anyone in Australia selling new bodies for the Super Hornet?
Unfortunately they don’t come up often
