Great review, didn't know they made a new version. I still have my 1985 Optima and it is still running.

What settings would I use for a 7.2 volt? It only wants to go down to 10.0 v

My question is when you spray the body do you always have to spray the black for the final touch to make it dark or is that just for that color for an example I seen you spray a raptor body two-tone color like a blue and black with the white stripe I like that I just want to know after I'm done painting the body do I spray it with a black coat just to make it pop

This buggy looks like it’s having a blast! What motor/battery combo? My original from 1985 will be resurrected soon. I can’t wait to drive it again!

Just got a used one. It's been fun. Still relevant in the 2024 RC world?

When someone claims I make a mistake: @acecapone8086 I'll save you some time and maybe you can feel like a complete idiot: @2:27 @11:04

This rig is so impressive, my first run on the kit was epic, bit the tire situation sucks. Better off to just run the stock set up. I've been through all the variations and they are all shit. Definitely a miss design from yeti. The growler is absolutely not a scale tire to this rig. The bfg is the most scale tire for this era. The bulging sidewall is hideous. Looks terrible. Looks like a Mexican lowrider. Looks like ass

That’s what he was trying to go for. Go for it brah

Whats better in a b5m 3 gear or 4 gear transmission?

You mention they’re made from drill bit blanks like mip but the only reference I’ve seen protek mention about the bit material is that it’s hss

Theres a few. 1 it jumps like shit the small hole pistons r in rear. Oils 2 thick. Alot of slop even for a tekno. And its really front heavy

Very enjoyable look-over, thank you. It looks super❗

10 YEARS LATER! Revisiting this video because I just got a stock HPi Sprint 2 Flux. With the HPi Flux Vapor ESC (rebranded SW3) and the HPi Flux Vektor 5900KV motor. Even though the HPi website states the Vapor ESC is NOT 3s compatible that is misleading, it isn't 3s compatible with the 5900KV Vektor motor installed! It IS actually 3s compatible up to 4800KV (and can maintain high drift revs well enough if you add your own fan like HPi did on their second release of the Vapor, the Vapor Pro). I wanted to run 3s so i swapped out the 5900KV for a 3700KV VRX purple 3650 to match the integy purple upgrades i added. But since I came across a new HPi FLUX MMH-4000, so i guess i will be doing some motor comparisons! So I decided to build a pair of CS drift cars using this HPi and a Tamiya TA04 (after finding the rare one way front diff for each, new, at very good prices!). After a quick search i found this video and discovered Amazon has all three parts you recommend so I ordered them! Thank you SO MUCH for taking the time to produce this video and posting it! You are still helping peoples like me a decade later and that's just pretty darn AWESOME!!!!! 🤙

Hi

Axial was good company but after horizon hobby brought them up they're killing the brand..... Axial should make rock races and rock bouncers not losi... Losi have to stick with their racing DNA... Not making rock races because it sucks.... Axial Yeti was a good U4Rc standard rock racer... This should make another one to.... Because the specialized in that

Mip does have a speed handle

Can the RX8 handle the tekin type d 4 pole drag motor?

Does the old parts fit up to the vintage? I’m willing to transfer all the modern stuff into a vintage

Hell yeah, I bet it rips

Hey Rich, long time viewer of your videos, particularly the build overviews. A quick question: in your honest opinion, your thoughts on the 410 2.0 vs the 410.3. i have the .3 and from the looking at the manuals and research I've done, it just seems to be built a little more heavy duty compared to the 2.0 such as the bigger shocks. Also I'd rather have a sliding motormount. Additionally, i wonder if the rather narrow chassis body of the .3 allows for less parachuting. Just curious to see what you think. Thanks.

Can’t wait to get mine out next racing season

That looks amazing.

Is this truck nosedives like the sl version

wow, going to sell my slash ult and buy this babe :)

Hey what charger can I use to charge the battery?

Nope, terrible plastic quality is why the front bits broke

Puedo instalarlo en mi camion con una Bateria 3S ???❤❤❤❤

That was a lipo? Looks like a Lion battery in toy cars like the hamdol stunt car

I love this car i want to get it so bad it looks awesome.

29:36 I have an issue… when I tighten the screws on the bottom, the suspension trailing arms becomes stiff and very hard to move… if I back off the bottom screws by a 1/4 turn then they loosen up… but when I tighten the bottom screws the arms stop moving… it happens with both the left and the right… any suggestions? I might have to post a video in order to explain

Good day RC friends, does anyone know why I use 3s with this hobbywing 2200kv combo and an XR8PRO ESC Are the batteries lasting 3 minutes? My batteries are 8000mah 80c 3s but they last 3 minutes or less. Is the ESC being protected from something? The motor says in the manual that it is 2 to 6s. and the ESC from 2 to 4s But with 3s batteries I have not been able to make the batteries last more than 3 minutes. if someone could help me

Is 4900mah enough for 8 min mains?

I did mine with abs in my cheap 3d printer.

So you showed nothing. Waste of 4 min.

'You need a cool knife'.. then proceeds with embarasing dull knife cutting shot...

That driver was moving

But of a random question but I would really appreciate if You could assist. I'm desperately looking for full slick tyres for eb410. Is there You can recommend?

Building Now, Half way through. About to open Bag K and mount the same 2s system you displayed, Tekin RX8 Gen3 w/ Pro4 HD Redline Motor and 16t Pinion. Gonna try her with the new RadioMaster MT12 with ExpressLRS. Also built her with Carbon Fiber front and rear shock towers. Stock rear tower weight is 1.2oz, Carbon Fiber rear weighs 0.6oz, that’s half cut in the front and rear. Purchased front and rear Skid Plates, add a little lower Cg weight.

Thank you for the video. I still love all of my Novak ESCs (Super Roosters) and they still work flawlessly in all of my monster trucks just like on the day that I bought them back in the day. RIP Novak - you are missed!

Wicked truck! Great choice in the music!

I have one of these chassis’s. $400 kit. With a built in interference between the front pan and rod and the horn for the steering servo. Limits articulation in the front

I honestly wonder if the quality of the rc (polycarb) paints has become less lately (EPA regulations causing formula changes or otherwise...)... I've been doing this stuff for almost 40 years, now, and it seems like the past 10 years or so, I have trouble with paint adhesion... After a crash or something, I'll notice paint just coming right off the body like it was made of cling wrap. I have no idea what the deal is! I've always prepped them very well, making sure there are no oils or contaminants of any kind, and never had issues (I must've done over 200 bodies in my life so far) until recently.

Can I run one of the 8000 mah on my arrma typhon 3s? Have not seen anyone mention it so O have no clue

Hey Rich they made the handle we have been asking for

Do this for the scx6 please

If I buy a Axial Yeti in 2024 do they have aftermarket parts available still I know it's the one of the best rock races... And he won't have 2 speed transmission... Which is really good in racing even losi Don't have it....

i like this video can u review more about the ratio gear of this rc please

I've started with the TRX4 Bronco 1979, then picked up a TRX6 AMG G63 and today I picked up a TRX4 Sport High trail launch edition.

with a 2s lipo my amperage is 5 amps, my charge time exceeded its charge time and my 1st maxx amps lipo was a non operational lipo pack with a 3 plus hour run 1st time. i always run 3 minute run packs with 15 minute charge time, lipo run time is impressive but troubled.

I kind of want to modify a Arrma 6S to fit the 15000mah batteries, wonder if that would be possible. will probably just buy the 8000s.
