I'm the same with tamiya. I get so excited like I'm 10 years old again. Brings back good old memories every time
I love the mad bull .when fitted with decent shocks servo and get rid of the wire servo arm its awesome lol.
Love show pics not a clue how .
Love the smell of those new tyres! Sorry I'm an addict.
Darth Nagus
Me too 😂😂😂
Thanks for watching my friend 👊🏻
I love the back pivot mount on the madbull makes it a good crawler too with oil shocks.
Kind of takes you back to the basics pretty awesome cat good video take care and be safe
Can’t wait to see this one finished, I know exactly what you mean about how exciting Tamiya kits are, I love the smell of a Tamiya kit!!!
Mr Doofa
We are addicted my friend 😂👊🏻
Great video Glenn! Building it right now
Love your excitement and giggles, my friend 🙂 Spot on. The right attitude for this build. I enjoyed mine very much, although I went the classic hopper way with it. Some day I will definitely put on the stock wheels and tires and have some fun with it 🙂
Nordic RC Visions
Absolutely my friend 🤩🤩🤩
Nothing like slightly over powering a basic buggy and then giving it a good thrashing to see what it can take! Good simple fun.
Wade Beaumont
Absolutely agree 😊
Thanks for watching 👊🏻
Fab build video Glenn. Because of your enthusiasm on this, I’ve just ordered one. 😊👍🏻
Dave Pearce
Oh great buddy 😊👊🏻
I’ve not run it yet, but all the guy who do love them 🤩🚗💨💨
Stops the gearbox slamming upwards and locking the travel upon acceleration. Actually works quite good
Lee Hurst
Cool I’ll really looking forward to running this one 😊👊🏻
Thats going to be a blast.
Robert Warke
Yeah I can’t wait to get it outside Robert 🚗💨💨💨
Thanks for watching buddy
Nice build 👍🏻 I like how your creating your own version ......awesome
RC Bro
Thanks buddy, I’m doing a few like this at the moment, it’s actually more fun 🤩👊🏻
Thanks for watching
Love the passion, I also enjoyed buillding mine! When the weather allows me I will post some driving video's love your Channel BTW
Love it Glen. Really good to see you have started it!!! As I said at Christmas I’m gonna try and follow you with mine. Couldn’t agree more on the point. Forget they are a budget model..... they are just great fun......... and it doesn’t matter if they get bashed about!!!!!
Darren Grimmer
Excellent Darren 🤩. Let me know if you want to see it finished? I can email you some pics or just wait for the next instalment 😉
Thanks for watching buddy
TAMIYA Legends cheers Glen. I’m going to source some parts and get started!!. I may email for some pictures so I can take my time!!!.
Darren Grimmer
No worries 😊
Looks crazy. Love the tyres.
FlyingAmbo
Thanks for watching buddy 😊👊🏻
Awesome build👍
tamiya frog
Thanks man 😊👊🏻
Great job and great passion as always my friend! 😍😍. Looking forward to the next installments. 😊😊😊
Markys Mods and Models
Thanks buddy 😊👊🏻
Glad to see this, I always thought it was just a 'hopper with big wheels.
Eric Zajac
It’s the last of the Hopper family 🤩👊🏻
I have a Mad bull to restore, love this series thx
Looking forward to seeing your version of this Frankenstein 😁
I'm doing a Mad Bull with budget BL with 10T too!
Am keen to show you my progress too 😎
Wing Ping Fan
Excellent 🤩👊🏻
That's a really cool project.
Steve Moon
Yeah wait to you see it finished, it’s sweet Steve 😊
Thanks for watching buddy
Oh that thing is going to fly with the brushless set in. I think that the gearing is quite high as my mates one goes way quicker than my lunchbox with the same brushless set. These are great fun. Nice build so far 😁
Pete Wylie RC Videos
Thanks buddy 😊👊🏻
Looking forward to the rest of this one ;)
DustyFingers
Sweet it’s finished now and I have to say it’s pretty cool 😎
Thanks for watching buddy
The Mad Rabbit 😂 Awesome, Tamiya should release it!
DashDrones
Lol 😂. Wait to you see it, it looks sweet 🤩
Thanks for watching buddy 👊🏻
Brings back memories the mad bull
David Turner
Sweet 😊👊🏻
I love it , going to be epic !
David Cotter
Cheers David, can’t wait to run this one 😊🚗💨💨🥶💨
Thanks for watching buddy
Go 1/8 back wheel conversion on armour wheels tyres.im running 8.4v 5000nimh on my grandsons mad bull tottaly stock but 17t pinion,ftx shocks all round ballraced just like mine.so much fun and lasts for ages.
That's probably the most unusual Tamiya build I've seen.
stephen manley
Absolutely agree Stephen 😊
Thanks for watching buddy 👊🏻
The Hornet has a bit of the same way of pivoting the gearbox , as I can remember from way back there were some springs in it to. Of course they break. lol. Tires seems a lot like from the lunchbox.
Sonny
Yes you’re spot on my friend, the DT-01 is the last of the Hopoer chassis’s 👊🏻
Hey, great video.
I’m looking at getting a Madbull for my 8yo who loves RC cars. For now all he’s used are Amazon specials. Would you recommend the Madbull as a beginners car? Or any other Tamyia? I’ll build it for him, and he’ll be racing it mainly off road.
Thanks
I've fitted the back wheel conversion too 1/8 wheels gives better stance and grip.
Me too fella alot better.
I gave a Mad Bull to my niece and nephew for christmas a few years ago.
Grumpy Modeler
Did you ever run it? I’m really curious to see just how they perform 🤔🤷🏼♂️🚗💨💨💨
@@TAMIYALegends No, I live in Norway and they live in England. I haven't seen it.
Grumpy Modeler
Oh wow you’re in Norway 🇳🇴 wow that’s a beautiful place my friend 🤩👊🏻
Fella I'm having probs getting the back hex splined for drive shaft keep getting let down ?.
I've taken the servo wire control arm out made a better one out off scraps from vantage 2.0 also the shocks fitt straight on ball cups the lot drives like a champ.
The rear pivot means that the suspension actually works under acceleration
Lee Hurst
It’s now fitted with the CVA’s which is a huge difference 😊
Whoop whoop 🙌 👍🏻😉 let’s see if I built mine wrong 🤦🏻♂️🤣🤣
Paul Russell
Lol 😂 I don’t think that’s possible with this kit 😂
Thanks for watching Paul 👊🏻
Does anyone know, can I put a madbull transmission on a grasshopper chassis? I am not sure if there are any modifications I would need to do. Thanks. Great video as well.
Jacob Kaiser
Hmmm 🤔 I’m not sure on 🤷🏼♂️
Mad Rabbit.... MAD Glenn!!! 😳😜😎💖
Really can't wait to see what you did to it.
It's kind of sad really... $135 USD + $14 for Bearings.....
For everyone else, cheap as chips. I've really wanted this Buggy for a long time. $150.00.... No way I can get it. 💔😞 asked for it for Christmas, even went as far as asking my friends, giving them my PayPal Link.... Embarrassing and unfruitful.
I haven't been able to afford a new RC since 2014. 😭 I keep hoping my luck will change.
Nope.
Anyway, sorry to bore you with that. I've never seen a Rapid Rabbit, and the cross with the Mad Bull AND Brushless Power....
Can only be EPIC!!! 😎👍👍
I'll be looking forward to seeing it done, and especially a running Video of that BEAST!!
Carmine ✈🚂🚙
PoorManRC
Well it’s finished now my friend and I hope you like it 🤩
Thanks for watching 👊🏻
@@TAMIYALegends I'm sure I will!!
Glenn the way you're talking about this bugging and I would feel the same way if you did think the way I'm thinking about this I think this could be one of them next 102 miles that will be considered vintage one day and you said maybe not the one but the way you're talking about it maybe it will the next 100 vintage.
Brad Kalman
I’m really liking this idea of the next 100 🤔. I need to think about it and see if I could do a video on it 😊
i put lunchbox esq wheels on my burns 1/8th ic ...... it was epic........
chloe devereaux
Lol I bet it was 😂. Sounds like great fun 😎🚗💨💨💨
@@TAMIYALegends nah it chewed up grass like a fresien heffer lol......
Does any body know if you can get metal gears for the mad bull
Is it possible to turn the Pogo shocks into oil-filled shocks?
You better glue the tires or the damn brushless motor is gonna fling all four into the weeds 😆😆😆
mitymike 1996
Pmsl 😂 love it 🤩
Stick some weight in the front. Should improve steering and reduce those bloody wheelies. Could allow a 3S
Alan Morris
Not sure I’ll get the traction over here for a wheelie lol 🥶🥶🥶
Are you like close to ottawa canada?
2:08 Monster buggy ;)
Linus Lundgren
Yeah that works for me 🤩👊🏻
put the cva's on the inner most mount on the lower wishbone, improves handling dramatically.... also does tamyia grease still smell like prawns????? odd question i know but the old 80's molybdium greas smelled like seafood..... :D
chloe devereaux
Yes I’ve made that change when I fitted the new shocks on it, those shocks make a hell of a difference lol 😂
Regarding the smell 😂. No it’s not something I’ve noticed, but now you’ve said that, I’ll have to check 😂🤩
@@TAMIYALegends seriously the old speed controller grease pongs of fish........... i tasted it once to be sure...... blllleeeeearrrggggg hhh lol :)
chloe devereaux
😂😂😂🤢🤮🤮
Not much you can do for the play in the stock steering. Works fine though when driving
Lee Hurst
Cool I’d heard it was a problem Lee, but I’ll now try it stock first buddy👊🏻
Make it rip Glen it will be a beast with those brushless motors.
Brad Kalman
I’m hoping so Brad 😬🚗💨💨💨
I call it a truggy 😂
Glenn don't forget the anterior crease in the depths so it be acting like a limited slip diff.
I bought a used Mad Bull. It is so worn out it need a new EVERYTHING. surprised nothing is broken but it was well used! Everything is worn out!
TheStuffz
Sounds like the previous owner had a lot of fun with it 🚗💨💨
Thanks for watching buddy
Glen there's a new comical Buggy out the avante and it's the first one of those that is 4-wheel drive they also have a new Karmann Ghia on the m chassis you might be interested in the they have a brand new 8x4semi and the Terra scorcher is being rered.
Brad Kalman
You need to check out my last video Brad 😊👊🏻
I typed “rookie rabbit” into google. Auto-text kicked in and I searched for “rampant rabbit” instead. At least I now know what to buy the wife for Valentines Day. Should mean that I can spend more time down the pub .... Cock On. 😬
If I upgrade it to 3S I can probably go clubbing as well.
Alan Morris
Pmsl 😂😂😂
That literally made me chuckle out loud 😂👊🏻
NJP Made 😬. I do worry about the thickness of the lubricant and the stiffness of the ride.
You should see the mud mad 1/24 truck.
that rear shock angle is shockingly terrible and does it have the really ropey front handling probs as the original bull?????????? where the wheels catch on the bumper under tight reversing out of a corner?????????????? either way should still be fun.
chloe devereaux
Yeah it’s great High Tech design 😂👊🏻. Definitely made for fun 😎🚗💨💨💨💨
@@TAMIYALegends awwwww awesome greg.... you reply super quick.... i'd love to do a mod build with you if you were still in the uk , or what's left of it :) x
chloe devereaux
Yeah think I’m better over here 😬😬😬. But I do know I could do so much more with the channel if I was back in the uk😞
@@TAMIYALegends hey ho buddy..... at least your happy and doin your thing, which we your viewers and subs love very much......
So do I share that sentiment.
Yeah but you have a fighter buggy there I know that they very similar.
It's a monster buggy.
Brad Kalman
Love it 😎👊🏻
