Sorry, but this is no review but rather a short presentation. No word about how terribly sloppy the chassis is. Its so bad its appalling. And i thought the times of Tamiya releasing highly flawed chassis are over.
G'day mate!🤠👩. Very nice beetle👌, straight away I recognised the tyres HPI😁, they look perfect, we have them on ours too. Thanks for telling what the rims are from, they suite it 👍. We have a rere and I just checked the body, it has only one stamp inside that I can find and no mention of made in Japan etc. That's really cool that you have an original!. Thanks for sharing your video and what the differences are, we didn't know until you mentioned 👍🍻. We hope you're well👍🦘🇦🇺
@@outbackrcaustralia4895 Thanks Mate 👍😊 glad you enjoyed it . Yes the wheels fit it perfect 👍😍 i need to run mine more , hopefully this weekend 😁 it weather is better . You guys take care down under .😁👍
Awsome bro as always! This was my first hobby grade car and it's been all crazy ever since I saw your red blitzer beetle video. This car will always have a special place I'm my heart!
Thanks Bro 😊👍The Blitzer Beetle is just awsome 😍 I remember you was a crazy hunt for the chrome version 😁😁 and now you have that and some other really "insane custom" versions . 😊 and you are probably not finished and never will be 😁😁😁 take care Bro 👍😊
Good looking car this Madcap 👍 Always nice to see a mechanical speed controller. The rear tires are easy to find (Manta Ray), it's another story for the front one 😢 To be honest, good move on fitting front CAT ones, they look nice on it 😊 Can't wait to see some of your cars running 👍🤝
Thank my friend 👍😊 Same as the manta ray 👍😁 cool . The front tires ok to I think 👍 And I must find the radio soon or atlest borrow the crystals from another set . 🤔
Nice. This was my first hobby grade Rc. I thought the chassis was made from Delrin. Also my kit was from TowerHobbies and it was the Ultimate Combo they sold. The motor I got was the Lemans 240st. I remember it came with bushings vs bearings. That was a huge difference! I never did install the side trays. The only thing that i can remember that broke were the idler and spur gear stripped. I replaced them with a Thorp overdrive kit. I added a Duratrax powerline 13x2 motor and a Duratrax dtx-4 esc. The esc was a rebranded Novak T4 and the motor had a Epic endbell so it could have been a Trinity motor. Sure hope to find another new in box i can build again. Looking forward to receiving the RC10T re release in the next couple weeks. As that was my second RC vehicle. But it was the ST version. Thanks for the memories!
Thanks 👍😊 soo cool to hear that people remember the the cars on my videos 👍😊 good memories. Hope you find one soon 👍 and yes the Rc10t is really tempting 🤔😆
@@newinbox yes it was tempting but not for long. I just had too. Glad I had the extra money. And I learned that the ultima was a kelron chassis maybe it was the shocks..... Funny I cannot find a outlaw ultima that came with the lemans 240st like mine did.
Yess , 😊 The rc10t looks really nice . Never had that before, not many Associated or Losi stuff here back in the days 🙄 It was Tamiya and Kyosho I remember from my childhood.
G'day our friend🤠🙋♀️. Thanks for sharing your Falcon with us, it's a pretty cool buggy, I hope Tamiya do another release one day, it'd be great to have one in a collection. It's nice weather for you now🌞👌. We hope you're well and enjoying your beautiful weather mate🍻👍🦘🇦🇺 PS Yeh that motor protection bar would be perfect on a Blitzer Beetle👌, it's a shame it never came with one.
Thanks Mate 😊👍 Yess , its cool 😎 really hope the rerelease it some day . Weather was soo nice in May and first days of June 😍 but last week has been cold and rainy 🌧 today it was only 7c in the morning and maybe 13-14c now and a little rain . But its just June soo we have July , August and hopefully September with good weather . You guys have a nice weekend 😊 👍
@@newinbox Did Tamiya ever do a re re?, I can't remember one. We were excited for you having warmer weather lol, it 8°c here and will most likely go to 5°c but luckily we have our wood fire burning so it's nice and warm😁.
G'day my friend🤠🙋♀️, Wow that looks great👌I have never seen one before. It would really stand out on your shelf👍🏁. Hopefully Tamiya do a rere or another Daytona car one day. We're glad things are dry and warm for you guys. Thanks very much for sharing your video mate👍🦘🇦🇺
Thanks Mate 👍😊yes , its not one you see every day for sure😁 Yes , weather has been beautiful the last 2 weeks , but a little rain today but that's ok , good for the flowers and plants 😊😁👍 Thanks for watching and you guys have a wonderful week 👍😊
@@newinbox Thankyou, it's beautiful weather here and things are nice and green also. Congratulations on having the car in your collection, it's pretty special alright.
Maaaan, this was an awesome review. I love the movie Days of Thunder! That color blue and yellow looks great together! That chasis looks so light, and I love the shock set up. Everything about this car is awesome!!!
Ohyess Bro 👍😊 Days of thunder is awsome 😍👍 that's true , that chassis don't weigh much , it was fast with that cool 01R motor too. You should get one , but only 1 😅😅you know what I mean 😁
You have good weather up there 😊 That car is a real beauty, so special with the 01R and the Parma body 🤩 As someone commented, I would raise the body 1-2 notches, but that's a detail and totally up to you 😉 All the best 🤝
@@newinbox this was king of carpet. I have a one.. its built but almost new & its the graphite version have thought of selling it but id have no idea what its worth
G'day mate🤠🙋♀️ That's a really good looking buggy👌, the body colours look perfect. Not a mark on it! 😳👍. Nice to see things dry out a bit for you over there. Thanks for sharing your buggy video and have a fantastic weekend🍻🦘🇦🇺
Hi mate🤠🙋♀️, That's insanely good looking👌, for a small car it looks tough with it shape and the way the rear wheels are under the sides of the body etc. Look like nice wide tyres too. Thanks for showing us the little beast😁👍. We hope you are well and having a great week my friend🦘🇦🇺
@outbackrcaustralia4895 Thanks 😊 all good here , cleaning outside on the porch after the winter 😊👍 weather starts to get warmer , soo can get some flowers and stuff 😊😊
Interesting show. I like the pick and blue car too -- nice one. I see you are near 1000 subs -- hope your viewers that haven't subbed yet will push the button. The channel deserves it for sure. Good Show always. Cheers.
G'day my friend🤠🙋♀️, I'm not really into Fiat most likely because we didn't grow up with this type of car in Australia but this Abarth really does look great, the camel yellow and black looks nice together too👌. The chassis looks really tough too. Thankyou for showing your build, it's very interesting👍. We hope you have a great week😁🙋♀️🦘🇦🇺
Thanks Mate 👍😊 you should check out the European cars 😊 soo many nice cars from the 60s , 70s and 80s . I don't much about Australian cars 😄 only Holden and the cool cats from MadMax , but the Australian V8 series is really cool. Sound awsome, and love Bathhurst 😍😍
@@newinbox Yeh you've got our interest with your euro car for sure👍. Sadly we don't make the Fords and Holden's in Oz any more, we're lucky enough to have a nice old school 5.0 litre V8 Holden, the prices have really gone up a lot and the cars are becoming more scarce, one upon a time these cars were taken to the rubbish dump and now we want them lol. Yes our Bathurst race is awesome, I've ridden the track on my road bike and it was fun. The track when not being used for racing is accessible to drive on as a normal road and in the middle of the track is a person's home and land. There are also kangaroos that live there. We hope you're enjoying some slightly warmer weather 👍🤠
@outbackrcaustralia4895 Yess , many cars are collectable here now , was sent to the scrapyard 10 years ago . I some watch the v8 series from back I the days , even cooler than now . Racing in the 60s and 70s is soo cool . Yepp , weather is getting better , probably 10c now and a little sun 🌞 Take care you guys 👍👍😊😊
@@newinbox Haha how funny is that, you guys are wanting the older cars now too, if only we had a crystal ball when we were younger 😂. Yes the older cars were tough here but technology takes over now. 10°is ok, we could handle that👌. Thanks my friend, all the best from Ingrid and I 👍
Was my first rc car . Got the kit for my 10th birthday . Got a battery and charger for Christmas, and waited till my 11th birthday for the attack ii futaba controller to finally get to drive it.
I recently came up with the idea of how to make normal grasshopper 2 to make it a comical version with just a couple of rubber bands. I will upload the video eventually. I believe you've already seen it on my Instagram 😊 Thank you for being my Instagram subscriber. Cheers!
