This video series is part of my effort to get all my RC cars up and running this year. One car at a time. Slowly. I hope I will make it.
Be aware that this is not a true restoration of a vintage model. More of a runner-project with a complete clean-up, transformation, upgrade and modernization. Some will like the final result, some will not. I will.
This is an original 1999 Tamiya Wild Dagger I purchased for little money several years ago. It was dirty and well-used but I never got around to a clean-up and restoration, before now.

Fyi, the 860 esc has been replaced by its successor, the 880 esc. I am impressed that you landed the 860 esc.
Ahh, he he. Didn’t even know that. Yeah, most of the stuff for this project I got two years ago. Just never got around to starting. The 880 looks cool 🙂
Interesting Esc! Can't wait for the Mini Cloud Buster running video.
Thanks, Sven! Mini Clod Buster is an excellent and perfect name for the WR-01 I think! Final video and a little test run up tomorrow 🙂
Looks like a monster.
Yeah, gonna be a real monster. So far so good.
👍That's a great ESC I use it in my tamiya bullhead works like a charm!! 👍 Sweet upgrades!
Thank you, Steve! The beautiful green Bullhead. Yeah, think it will do alright 🙂
Nice upgrades bud, One step closer to running that beast around again 😊👍
Thanks, Chris. Yeah and just one more step now 🙂
Nice practical upgrade 👍🏼😊👍🏼 Will be installing 880 on my Twin Det.
Nice! The Twin Detonator is a beautiful truck too. Got the 2WD version (Mighty Bull with Twin Detonator body).
Nice Upgrades 😎👍🏻
Thanks a lot, my friend.
I used the Hobbywing 880 and two 17T motors in mine. Works very well. Love that truck.
Yeah, just found out there is an 880 now. But had this one, purchased for over two years now. Sounds good with yours. Have you measured the top speed?
@@NordicRC No i haven't. It's not super fast but nice to drive. I'll measure it next i'm out with it, if i won't forget to. :)
Nice video bro keep up the good work. 👏👊👍💯💯
Thank you, Ruth!
Great progress Mikael! Nicely done, too. Strange you needed to change the Transmitter? Anyway, the Wild Dagger is looking cool, and I think the servo you fitted will do just fine. Can't wait to see it finished! :))
Thanks, Mark. Yeah, something is wrong. I had problems with it on the last run too. Not sure I will bother investigating, since I got the brand new spare one. Springs, where and trigger and everything feels so much better too. I’ve used the old one quite a lot. And thanks! Yeah, servo will do for now 🙂 Final video coming up this weekend. Thanks a lot for watching, my friend.
@@NordicRC I agree and understand - too many issues to deal with and so little time - carry on with what works and not to worry about little problems - more fun with our hobby times! :)
Very sensible choices between what you have and what you bought. Nice! I would not have done any differently. It's not sexy but you can wrap the receiver in a ballon so all the electronics are waterproof.
Thank you, Benoit. Yeah, not too much, not too little. I think it will be fine. Yeah, but I think the hot glue or epoxy on a receiver is better. But the Sanwa receiver on this one is already waterproof/splashproof.
@@NordicRC OK I did not know that, I use cheap skyrc receivers on my builds and that is the thing it lacks. It's perfect then, can't wait to see it in action. ^^
Yeah, I use cheap GoolRC too. But for some I use Sanwa and Tamiya.
Nice upgrades and video
Thank you, Duke!
@@NordicRC your welcome,✌👍👊
Great stuff I have one in my clod
Nice, Tom. I hope it will be a good one.
I was surprised there was a issue with fitting the motor wires might be they use larger plugs being for 1/8th. All the Hobbywing I have used never a issue. The ESC does look up to the job size wise but testing we will see.
Hi Mal! Yeah, I was surprised too. I think it is the RC4WD Motor wires/plugs that are small, but haven’t measured it or re-wired it yet. My other Hobbywing fits perfect to the motors I have tried it with. I think the ESC will do great, although I was surprised at the low speed on my test run (coming later this weekend) 🤨
Nice choice of electronics Mikael, seems about perfect! Can’t wait to see her out running once again!👍😊
Thanks, Jeremy. Final video coming up tomorrow 🙂
Great transformation! Definitely looking forward to see the wild dagger in action 👍
Hi Charlie! Thanks a lot! Final video with a little test run already up!
Hi sir, you should use those cheap but effective lipo low voltage alarm that can be set the limit, it helps to preserve lipos. Just an info...$1-5.00 cheap😁
Hi! Yeah have them, use them with my Tamiya ESC’s, but no need when the ESC have a LiPo cut off like this one ☺️
I hope that goes better than mine mate? good video👍👍
Not sure 🙂 Maybe it’s just the low gear ratio. Winds out very quickly.
Hey I know you can find lipos that will fit that.
Yeah, got plenty. Just needed to solder some connections first 🙂
Good progress Mikael. Could you send me the link for the servo mounts please. Thank you 😊👍
You could find those alloy servo mounts on ebay... just search tamiya wt01 servo mounts.
I actually have the same mounts in blue.
Thanks, Derek. Yeah, as Nick writes you can search them easily on eBay (on my phone right now so harder to make links). I will copy the link here as soon as I get to a computer!
Yeah, got them in blue too. Hope they will hold up better.
Good evening, Derek! With a computer now:

How much is the 860 hobbywing? And how low can you go for duel brushed motors?
Think it’s around 50-60. But just learned that it is replaced by a 880 🙂
I guess the hobbywing wp 0880 would have been the better choice...
Oh. Why?
@@NordicRC
It would have been better, because
it has more setup adjustment and even adjustable PMW Frequency!
That's most likely a 1080 with a new case and 4s capability....and two more motor plugs, of course.
Sounds great. Yeah, but I think this one will do fine with the 1999 model 😅
@@NordicRC Of course it will!
Finally finished my Bullhead body today....
Yesterday I built the chassis...
4 wheel steering is completely different than the standard front steer..
It's also a lot slower, but hey,a monster truck is more shine and show, especially the stage 2 version out of the 80s...
The stage 1's in the very early 80s(talking about the real monster truck scene) were very heavy and even had LEAF SPRINGS!
I hope you GPS it.
I will. It’s surprisingly slow 🙂
where are you from?
Denmark, Scandinavia. You?
cool, im from sweden
i thought you might be from denmark cuz of the flat landscape
Im new in rc, i just bought my first rc car, the wltoys 959
