Great build Mick, that’s one of the best chassis’s from Tamiya in my opinion 🤩🤩🤩

Thanks Glenn. Yeah I think so too. I've just now had the idea I may grab another one and add a Boomerang body and stuff on it. Just an idea...🤔👍

G'day Mark. Thanks mate. Hopefully my video wasn't too boring for you, since you already know the chassis. 🙂 I hope so mate, still can't decide on a motor. Might just close my eyes and point randomly at a motor lol. You too mate, have a great weekend! 👍

@@RCHobbyShed No - definitely not boring! I really enjoy seeing how my friends do their builds and how it's presented to the viewer. Always something new to learn, that's the beauty of this hobby. And who gets fed up of a Tamiya build?!?!?! Just watched your unboxing video - I got an RX too! As for the motor, put the fastest one in it, my Terra is painfully slow with the stock motor! Cheers, mate, a great weekend to you too.

Ah that's good then 🙂. Me too mate, always interesting to see other peoples builds. Exactly, Tamiya builds are always fun! Oh yeah, I plan to leave the stock motor out of the RX, I've yet to decide which motor I'll run but I also think it needs to be fast. Will do mate, thanks! 👍

You need to be a bit careful though the A5 part - front arms brace - is a known weak point. But there are 2 options a metal brace or the TL01 e-clip pins.

Hey Mick, nice vid. Its a lovely build this one, I enjoyed building mine. After I finished the shell & decals I figured the red wasn't bright enough so masked it up & backed it in white, much nicer! Maybe consider this before you take the backing off, unlike me! Lol

That's actually a pretty cool looking buggy, it has a space vehicle sort of a style about it. I like your parts containers with the decals on them👌. It was nice to sit back and watch someone else do all the work for a change haha. I picked up a couple of good build tricks from your video, thanks for sharing mate🥇👍🦘🇦🇺
@RCHobbyShed
@RCHobbyShed 3 года назад
Yeah I think so too mate, maybe this is where they got the idea for the Mars Rover lol. Thanks mate, the containers are handy. I took the letter decals off Kyosho parts bags, so I just empty the parts bags into the right tubs and I can move them whenever I need to with forgetting which tub is what. Hopefully it wasn't too boring lol Glad you got something from it mate, there wasn't a lot of tips I could pass on with this one as it's a pretty straight forward build. 👍

Nice one Mick! Got a Fire Dragon in post. Hopefully arrives before easter weekend so I can get building. Great to have a build along video in case I run into trouble. Question on the notorious A5 part. Is it really that bad? I've read a lot about how people just upgrade that with an aluminum part straight away or strengthen it with some shim type parts. Noticed you just left it as is.
@RCHobbyShed
@RCHobbyShed Год назад
Thanks mate! Oh nice, they're a really fun buggy. I haven't found the A5 part to be much of an issue at all really. If you saw my running video of the Fire Dragon at the BMX track you'll know I wasn't driving too carefully lol. I think a lot of the talk about the A5 part comes from people running vintage buggies and the old plastics are cracking. That said, I have done A5 upgrades on other cars with this chassis, just in case. I say, if you can afford the upgrade then go for it. If not, wait n see how it goes. Good luck! 👍
@huwtindall7096
@huwtindall7096 Год назад
@@RCHobbyShed thanks for the tip mate - no point spending money on upgrading A5 until/if it breaks. I'm not racing or thrashing the cars (just a fun park bash) so should be ok for my purposes.

Thanks! I think I'd go for the Thunder Shot, purely because I think they look better. Performance wise, there's really not much (if any) difference as they're essentially the same apart from the Thunder Shot having the single front shock. 👍

I can't believe these are still being sold! Does it have retro appeal or something? I had mine about 33 years ago as a kid when they first came out. In fact it is basically the even older Thunder Dragon but with two front shocks instead of one.

I glue mine 99% of the time. On this one I didn't because they're quite a tight fit (and I got lazy lol), but I may even still glue these before running it. Usually I just glue the tyres regardless of what motor I'm running as it's a pain having them come lose two minutes into a run. 👍
