Tamiya Subaru Brat was originally released in 1983. This is the re-release from 2007. If you interested how to waterproof, then watch this video: • Waterproofing of RC Ca...
Great video! Love the music. I remember having this truck and a monster beetle. I don't recall the wheels on this truck though. I must have switched them out for monster beetle ones.
I still have my first rc that I got 30 years ago and it was the Subaru Brat! She a litte beet up but it still work great my good old Brat!! Awesome video Matteo!!
Matteo another fantastic video! You've inspired me to build my brat from all of the parts I've collected. Two frog chassis and a heap of ebay parts....thank goodness for the re-re otherwise I'd still be looking for an affordable polystyrene shell. Keep up the great work, and keep posting these super quality videos.
Another top video. Just love those tracking shots. Its classic Tamiya it seems this week. Been loads of old Tam vids lately excelent bring on the classics
Another outstanding video Matteo! It seems that you have all of the best environments to run your cars near you...I'm jealous! :) Keep up the great work, looking forward to your next video. 👍
come sempre hai fatto un grande video, complimenti! magari un giorno arriverò a girare video al tuo livello....sarebbe il mio sogno e un tuo consiglio sarebbe veramente apprezzato!
Thanks for the video. Good Camera angles, good editing good audio. Did you use fpv on another vehicle to shoot in some of the shots? Asking cause that's the only explanation i could give it. Unless you're running tracka and having a camera ok slide on the tracks to shoot...
Just beautiful Matteo. I'm thinking of getting this car. How's the ride of this car? Looks very bouncy. Did you cover the electronics before running it into the water? Either beautiful job and regardless, Im gonna purchase the car. Thank you for your hard work Matteo!
Thanks Christopher. Yes, the car is a bit bouncy, as many of the old vintage cars. Yes, I waterproofed the electronics. You can do this on two different ways: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-JPuz7MhwJlw.html Or a more simple way: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-srYwTVjT5Nk.html
I have the same kit and love it! Great vid! I hope to see more of this iconic classic in future vids. Maybe a vid of some modifications? Great work as always!
I Just love watching your videos. Such professionalism at work, I love how you use your camera angles and the music in sync with the action shots. Thumbs UP!!!
VERY VERY VERY GOOD NICE ACTION GREAT DRIVER GREAT GREAT I started to buy one instead I got the SCX 10 JEEP WRANGLER RUBICON you did right best regards keep on RC ING BRO
It says "Subaru" on it too, but isn't made by Subaru. It's just for scale realism since real Brats were 4wd and the decals are done accurately in the same style as real Brats
Hallo Matteo! Wieder ein geiles Video, Kompliment! Wie behandelst Du eigentlich deine Fahrzeuge nach solchen Ausfahrten, um Rost an Schrauben, usw zu vermeiden?
latosa 76 Danke fürs Kompliment! Mache eigentlich nicht allzu viel, mit klarem Wasser spülen und dann die Lager und Metallteile mit etwas Ölspray behandeln.
erstmal gratulation zu deinen wundervollen videos! eine frage drängt sich mir auf: hast du bei den wasserszenen vom brat einen "wasser auf der scheibe"-filter drübergelegt? habs mir angesehen und irgendwie fiel mir das auf weil die tropfen zu scharf waren.. in welchem programm schneidest du? grüße aus wien :)
Danke Georg! Ja, da hab ich tatsächlich einen Tropfenfilter darüber gelegt. Der geübte Filmemacher bemerkt das natürlich! 👍 Ich schneide mit Final Cut Pro.
I have an original Tamiya Subaru Brat that I purchased new in 1984. I am currently restoring the SUbaru but having a hard time finding a replacement battery for the motor. Does anyone have a good suggestion for a replacement battery that will fit? Originally it came with a Tamiya 7.2V 1200mAh battery about 4.5 inches long. I do remember upgrading it back then to a more powerful black motor that was much faster than stock. Thanks for any help -Glen
Hi Glen, I used some spacers on the plates on each side of the battery compartment, so a bit longer batteries such as lipos will fit: teamorion.com/en/batteries-en/lipo/hobby-stick/rocket-sport-4200-lipo-7-4v-tamiya-plug/
I STILL HAVE THE BOX FROM THE BRAT BODY KIT , IT HAS MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE FIGURES IN IT , I BOUGHT IT FOR MY FROG IN I THINK 1986 - 87ish ?? LONG TIME AGO MATTEO !!!
Hiya Matteo, just watched this video again, about the 15th time this weekend. I've got a Brat coming, so I'm getting some inspiration. What editing software/program to you use to get such flawless videos?
Wow, you just amaze me every time with one of your videos of my favorite brand of rc. It would be really cool to see you do one of a Mad Bull! which is "as tamiya as it gets" quoting from the Jang :)
These two cars are much different. The Subaru Brat is a buggy and runs fast. The Landfreeder is a Cross Country vehicle, made for slower crawling and trailing.
@@Matteomeier i changed the motor on mine and fitted a bigger gear and fitted a bigger battery. added 50% more speed but the Hex on drive shaft rounded after a few weeks of heavy use. was cheap enough to replace the part.
Hab heut meine Brat Karosserie lackiert, nun ist er fertig, is ein echt schönes Teil. Nun hätte ich zwei Fragen: 1. Wie mach ich ihn denn Wasserfest? Und 2.: weißt du zufällig welche Felgen (ausser die Originalen) man beim Brat noch verwenden kann?
TheGreatMajima Super, wünsch dir viel Spass damit! Also ich mache nur die Elektronik wasserdicht, wie kannst du hier sehen: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-srYwTVjT5Nk.html Felgen gibt es nicht viel andere die passen, aber mit diesem Adapter lassen sich alle normalen Felgen montieren (hinten): tamico.de/Tamiya-Alu-Radmitnehmer-2-Stk-Wheel-Adapter-Frog-ua-53913 Vorne passen ja sowieso die meisten 2wd Vorderradfelgen.
Danke, werd ich mit Sicherheit haben, da das Wetter derzeit aber leider nicht mitspielt, kam die Frage nach dem Wetterfest machen auf. ^^ Mal schaun, ob ich das mache, oder ob das Wetter wieder mal umschwingt, hab ja auch noch ein weiteres Projekt neben dem Brat. Der Wheel Adapter is ja ziemlich praktisch, werd ich mir definitv besorgen. Danke für die Tipps und die Links! :)
No, but the car himself is not a problem, but the electronics inside must be sealed. I use a simple method with a rubber balloon. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-srYwTVjT5Nk.html
Thanks! The balloon method have advantages and disadvantages. Here is another technique: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-JPuz7MhwJlw.html
