Hey Guys, Here is a Build Series of the Team Associated B7 ( Part 1 ) Hopefully this video helps you gain knowledge and improve your experience building your car. #teamassociated #amainhobbies #howto
Really great videos, just watched parts 1 and 2. I ordered my B7 today so this will be very handy when it arrives. It'll be my first ever 'modern' racing buggy so excited to see how it runs not having any experience of cutting edge technology!
"I'm just gonna go ahead and build this brand-new kit with all of the best option parts". Still very informative, these videos are greatly appreciated.
@@spencerrivkinracing I know, I have been an AE fan for some time and know you are AE sponsored. I have been watching your videos for a while. My comment was actually just a joke as most people who get the kit won't really put many parts on it initially. As a Sponsored AE guy, you have the luxury of being able to do so. If I were you, I would do the same. The new car is doing well so far and looks good on track. I have seen multiple podium finishes so far in the hands of the AE team drivers, very nice! I also like the carbon parts where I can use them even though they can be prone to breakage (B3 was the last car that I raced with), If I could get the new car, I would. I would just tune for a chassis with less flex.
@ 13:00 would love to hear more on why changing kickup is preferred. For me its about how weight transfers but where I struggle is identifying the track.
Just some advice. I would apply Loctite on screws wet and a friend who is a mechanic said I was applying it wrong. They pointed out that it should be applied first, wait until it dries then used. Hence why on car bolts i.e. wheel nuts for large cars they come pre applied. Also it prevents issues if the bolt or screw needs to be removed. Now I apply Loctite the day before I use screws now.
Thinking about getting back into rc and want a b7 but I can’t afford to get both a carpet and dirt car but will be racing both. Which would you recommend getting c or d model so I could run both with changing the car setups for what I’m running on.
My arms came super smooth. The hub inserts were another story, I had to ream those. I think the set screw design on the hub inserts were not a good design
I'm sorry any new car that has over 2hrs of 'build tips' has an instruction manual that is way off. Either in practicality or in theory or in both. Even after you already paid the 400$ for it. Folks this is a classic example of the YT algorithm focusing more on watch time than views/comments/likes/shares etc. Note - not an AE hater. I still hope for another rere of ole goldie (never had 1 new) and still maintain of all the 2wd mods i've race the B4 takes honors. -U10
Lol, whether you’re aware of them or not, every kit has tips and tricks that aren’t written in the manual. They’re usually just convenience or “just in case” tips. Nothing absolutely crucial.
