Tamiya Hornet detailed chassis build & giveaway. 

Great Video, I know it been here for awhile. But I still have my original Hornet from the 80’s. Just new tires and body and its still running all these years later. It’s still one of my go to cars for fun, also have my original Grasshopper that’s been shelved for now. These are great little cars to build and have simplistic fun with. 540 motor and a 2S lipo, run times over an hour, great memories

Nice! I always liked the look of a bright red hornet!

My first rc was the hornet in the 80s! A great first rc for any kid or kid at heart❤️

That new tyre smell !! Oh memories, had the pleasure of that smell a few months ago after waiting to build a Frog.

Such a great simple design but I remember I learned a lot building this kit as a young child and gained a great sense of achievement when it was completed. Great video, brought back many happy memories, thanks!

Had this car and its brother the grasshopper. Both great beaters. Miss the good old days.

You just can’t beat a new build tamiya out of the box. I love the smell of the tyre’s as well. Such great happy memories 👍👍👍

Excellent mate... No one else is doing this.

Silver with lime green accents or purple and lime green! Amazing video by the way,always fun to watch!

Another great vid. Thank you.

Some nice detail. Always a pleasure! 👍😎👍

Tamiya Candy lime green - awsome colour either on body, wheels or both !!

Red over Light Grey. Loved the trip down memory lane. I had a Hornet in the 80's with a Parma Ultra-stock 540, man that buggy ripped!!

Tremendous video! Cracking car!

Looking good that's a great chassis tons of fun👍😀

I think I should win ‘cos I’m the tallest 😬 Those back tyres were fab for about 2 races, then the nobbles wore off and it was spin central. This beast would be a great candidate for a steaming gyro being put in. No more mechanical speed controllers or battery boxes for the receiver! I know it would be bonkers, but a brushless/3s lipo set up would be a right blast. It might kill a few old grannies - but, Hey - you’ve got to laugh.

Would look good in white! Great build!

Awesome brother

Great video! Half the fun of these Tamiya kits is building them. At least the winner gets to see it built.

Nice build up video 👍👍👍

Love the hornet, nice vid.

Tamiya kits are always fun to build

My first hobby grade car was the world engines rock buster that I got for my 15th birthday

Great vids 👍🏻👍🏻

BTW, I think there is a distinct improvement in this video. More close-ups, voice-overs and detail. Still can’t stand the music and not a big fan of the fast forward (it makes my brain hurt), but deffo a big step in the right direction. Thanks and well done.

Awesome vid,hope i win? You wanna see this now 46 year old turn back to a very excited 13 year old this would do it lol🤣

great

😍

Bought one of these to see me through lockdown 3. Watched the whole series and I'm pleased to see you had the same gear left over that I had! What's that all about?

Awesome cool vid!! I love this rc😎👍 I subbed your channel,from🇯🇵★☆

I've Never Owned a hornet would love to😉👍

Rc Kicks or anyone reading this, what is the plastic cog for that is placed on the bench at 5.08 on the video? I've just started building a Hornet myself (first car) and have this left over. Thought I'd missed it from somewhere and was getting concerned. Thanks, Dale.

Fingers crossed I win lol

I did like and subscribe hope I'm not to late to enter

I’d have to stick to the original colour scheme I think. Great vid.

May i know the specs of bearings used in tamiya hornet? .. Thank you

I hope I can win this to give to my wife on our nine year anniversary!!!!

I’m so gunna win this bad boy 😂😂😂

Ok see now I'm way to late great little car my son and I built one together when he was 9 and now he is 41 wow time Flys but we still today run rc cars together along with my other son and son-in-law

hi is there any chance you could give me the size of those rear tiers .the reason for this is i have an old Tyco jet hopper and the rear tires have dry rot so looking for replacements was wondering if these might fit any help appreciated

I never built a RC cars.

Would have loved to have watched this, ruined with the music.
