Tamiya DT03 Racing Fighter Unboxing & Hop-Ups - is this the best New in Box deal? 

Without a doubt the best buggy pound for pound in my eyes. You get a fairly good esc and slightly improved motor as standard and many kits out there with cva''s in the box too. Plus they are great buggies that can handle plenty of power should you choose to push it a bit.

I must say we have used this now a few times and so far it has done its job well! The price is fantastic for what you get 👍

I like the proportions it has, also it has loads of hop ups available 👍

It’s a really nice buggy, might be better than the Tt-02b maybe 🤔

@@chiefengineer4330 no chance!

Looking forward to seeing this one running and finished 👍

It’s a great addiction to the family

But less tinsel 😂👍

It does seem good value. I have no idea on the final design will be though, so that should be exciting 🤔👍

Always looking for a Tamiya bargain

Rising Fighter !

It should be a good one, Ive seen the Chassis together and looks good, need a design for the shell though. I’m glad the stickers finally arrived, post is annoying here at the mo 👍

I’ve got a feeling this will be one of my favourites

It should be a good one, interesting to see if the bling helps 🤔👍

@@RCsoandso the c-hubs in the front for sure. The plastic ones break almost on the first run. And for design reasons the rear knuckels and the mounts look at least nice and fit perfect😉

Yes its a great price for what you get, and it performs really well. It is a sound investment 👍

Very red and shiny, logic would dictate it should be red, but who knows 🤔😂👍

I’ve got an idea in my head for this one

I do like a BZ, I have the RZ in my cosworth, but I don’t think we have a TZ in anything…yet 😂🤔👍

@@RCsoandso Yes fella, nicely engineered motors that perform well, sound great and are a joy to work on. Who needs brushless in these types of kits?! I've found all the superstock series perform very similar, I generally base my decision on what colour Bell end matches the car best..... woops, I mean end bell! 🤣 😂 The RZ definitely seems to have a bit more punch though, possibly due to its lay down brush design. But in reality, can't go wrong with any of them mate! 👍 👍 👍 👍

@@yodadarksideGreenHawksRC my rule of thumb, and I’m not sure where I got this from, I put RZ in road cars and BZ in off road ones. But I drive both on all surfaces, but for me the BZ is my favourite as I like the noise 🤔😂👍

It’s a great deal 👍

That’s true, for a starting point to test the water it’s kind of ideal. Hop ups are great for it 👍

Its good it has decent tyres as this sometimes is the downfall of Tamiya models 🤔😂👍

It does seem a good price, so much so I think my brother-in-law has just bought one. Extra tyres is not a bad plan 🤔👍

@@RCsoandso depends… if you are on the tarmac slicks for the win dude!!

BZ is good enough

Two would be ideal, whizzing around, and good wholesome fun 👍

It does seem pretty good 👍

It is cool

Sadly no, but with the price savings for the kit it means that adding the hop ups is affordable, and you have an amazing buggy for the money 👍

I run BZ in most of mine with Tamiya ESC, always works, you do not need a Hobbywing

@@RCsoandso they tell you not to have anything lower than a 25 turn with their escs and believe it or not some of the hobby wings come in their cars now. And I find there escs frustrating to use. And they're waterproof the hobby wings. And I can use a lipo with them I have to hook there's up to a a monitor for the battery except for the TBL e04.

Tamiya ones are cool they run out others no problem

Was that with Torque tuned motor and an ESC tho 🤔

@@RCsoandso no it wasn't but it's cheaper than the original grasshopper. But even with a torque tune motor it's going to be about the same price.

We might get one, one day

It was a right good deal, welcome onboard, coming over from Addams you must know your onions 😂👍

@@RCsoandso thank you very much appreciated it I have been around for a while 😂 but I'm always happy to learn more about all sorts and happy to support 🤘

@@Fonzierc well I guess if you ever needed to know what to do, check out this channel 😂🤣👍

I think they no longer even want them!

I’ve added them to the collection 😂

Even Blue Peter probably prefers ball bearings to bushings now!!

@@guymarotta2596 are they making Tracy Island again then 🤔😂

I’m almost worried to find out, personally I always go for black aluminium parts, but the Chief Engineer is a bit more of a magpie 🕊️

You better believe it brother 😂👍

We use these as standard

@@RCsoandso I would put no more than 12 kg in mine.

@@bradkalman2353 it’s worth overkill just incase it gets used in another, transmitter slows it down

That’s true, but as the car is a good price it is a good one to invest in upgrades with 👍
