I think it was Nordic RC that did a few vids on upgrades for the DT03 including numerous shocks. The best working ones were the stock cva ones
The stock CVA's (when done right) are actually really really good.
Yeah I’d imagine I’ll fit them when I run it 😅
Just got to stretch those rear springs a little and they improve hugely.
I just got a DT03 (mine is the Racing Fighter) very nice progress indeed. Looks great
Massive respect to the DT-03! I have two now and l never get new modern stuff its always rere new or vintage! The DT-03 is definitely the budget modern day classic! It ticks so many boxes!
I must get on with my Aqroshot too! Work is spoiling the party at the moment!
Glenn the white springs are fantastic mate l must have a go at that as l have several part used PS paints leftover!
Pink wheels rock too my friend.
Cheers James.
I have the DT-03 and have tried various after-market shocks (3racing, GPM) and none are better than the Tamiya oil ones. For some reason, all the after-market ones think the car weighs 10 times heavier than it is and make the springs super hard. I haven't given up yet.. the shocks are well made, so it's just a case of finding a softer spring of the right length and width.
I didn’t realize those wheels would take dye , that’s good to know . The Dt03 is a fun buggy to build and run .
Yeah I had doubts myself lol 😅
Thanks for the vid Glenn. I have an Aqroshot DT03T same chassis more or less. It's a great car to build and upgrades aren't too expensive which makes it great for the beginner or those of us on a tight budget! Most importantly it's great fun to drive!
Great fun buggy for the money was very impressed racing it around just need some weight added to the front to help with steering
Fantastic I’m looking forward to getting this out for a blast soon 😅
The DT03 is a great RC. Drives really nice. I went to town on Tamiya upgrades on mine and love it.
Fantastic 😎👊🏻
Chassis looks great!
Love the dt02 buddy. Mine will need to look like that.
Yeah how the kit should of come lol 😂
Cracking job, looking forward to seeing the end result 👍 im supprised no ones done a carbon chassis for these yet, unless they allready have 🤔
Hmmm yeah don’t think I’ve seen anything like that 🤔
Sat in m&s Halifax UK cheers glen
Haha awesome 😎
You really should do a tutorial on dyeing wheels!
Great job Glenn!! Can’t wait to see it finished
Excellent such a fun platform 😅👊🏻
Nice work! I only wondered why no blue wheel nuts on the DT03
Did wonder what happened to this one.. great looking build so far and them wheels look really nice Glenn 😎👊👌🔥🔥🔥 bar of soap put soap under nails stops work grim getting under them it's what i do 👍
Oh I’ve actually just finally finished that project it was horrendous 🤕🤕🤕 believe it or not that happens with two pairs of gloves on 🤯
Highly recommend Dulpicolor engine enamel spray paint for the shocks! You can yield some insane colors and they last through years of brutal bashing with barely any chipping!
Fantastic thanks for the info my friend 😅👊🏻
Great video Glenn!! Wheels look sweet 👌
The reason the back wheels on the Dt02ms are different is because the included tyres are too wide for the standard tamiya wheel. I run into this issue when I put proline holeshots on my stock td2 wheels, no grip at all at the track, holeshots on the appropriate sized wheel hook up perfect. So really the the MS should have come with trf201 wheels or come with standard rear tyres. Knowing how much it destroys the performance of the tyre using a too narrow wheel on those included tyres feels all wrong.
Those shocks with different oil work very well on my tt02. Gotta pick up some petal pink dye now. Looks great Glen, big improvement.
Thanks buddy it’s a shame I couldn’t fit different softer springs 🤕. But they do look bloody awesome lol 😂
I had a DT-03 Racing Fighter, and it was good but boy did it understeer. I converted it to a DT-02 Sand Viper and it was way better, handled so well. Anyway, awesome video as always mate, keep 'em coming!!
Nice build. Tamiya kits, are a great way to get into the hobby. So much to learn.
The shocks did really liven it up and the pink wheels look great! Looking forward to seeing what the body is going to look like! I could tell you were super happy with the shocks, I could hear you smiling!
Due to this video Glen I’ve been stripping down my dt03 and re-building it 😂 love it 👍👍👍
Love the ms buggies. My DT-03 is running a sport tuned and C.V.As but now I want white springs.👍
Great video
Looks food5, white speings look better. 👍🏻
You’d assume the shocks were TRF at a glance. Good tip re painting springs 👍
Looks awesome! I have a DT03 with all the hops ups but no idea where they all are 😂😂 Autumn time and building will commence once again!!
Lovely Glenn, and the shocks a pretty cool.
The dye turned out great love the build great vid bud.. Thanks 😎👍
DTO3's are great little cars and it's looking good. The standard towers do flex a bit, to the point where my shocks will bind up so that's a good upgrade.
Fantastic I didn’t know that 😎👊🏻
Glenn my man you killed me when you said the stain on the nails I can so relate.🤣 anyway the Dto3 looks fantastic now!
Those wheels look so good and I think I'll have to do the same to mine, It should look really cool with the PS 16 on the body.. And those springs really pop once on those shocks which in turn makes the chassis look better.
I know what you mean about being back to work and not having the time for the hobby, which kind of sucks 😞
Really enjoyed the video so thanks for sharing
That’s really come together Glenn, nice work 😎
I have those dampers for my TT02B project. I might do this with my AQROSHOT build.
Excellent my friend 😅
Hi Glenn, looks fantastic! I was just wondering when you build Keith's Juggernaut if you are going to film it? Thanks.
Great looking build, Glenn
That turned out great Glenn bravo!
Hey Glenn, great job. Love those wheels. Amazed it worked so well using petal pink? I'd have thought fushia would have been more like it. Going to try on my DT03. ❤
do look epic on the pink shoes buddy and that display is out of this world keep up the good work mr B 🙂
Think I’m going to bling up the hell out of my DT03 now lol
Excellent 😊😊😅
9:36 Marui Ninja. My first kit buggy. Last I checked you can still get repopped bodies and decals.
Looking good so far Glenn!
For budget shocks they really do look the part
Looking great Glenn ❤❤ really like these buggies
Good to see what you’re doing to this one. Looking forward to seeing the body. I’m in the middle of this very build which is going to have a completely custom body. The painting is all done and just waiting for the custom decals to arrive from MCI. Overall I hear good things about how this car runs.
Gotta say I'm liking the white springs, giving the Aeration vibes. You are back working full-time? What are you doing these days for work?
The wheels look great
Ironically I bought a set of pink astral wheels (only ones I could find at the time) which I changed to white with plastidip rubber spray.
I wish they made front wheels to match the rears ms
Looking fresh with those carbon towers and new pink wheels👍👍👊
Where do you get the trf stickers for thr dt02 ?wouod love to get some. Also , have you done a video on painting up a trf body ?n love it.
So you can get re production decals from the MCI website. But there not as sharp as the Tamiya ones unfortunately 👊🏻
Love the wheels and the shocks I am not a fan of plastic shocks. I hope you get loads of views.
Thanks buddy 😎👊🏻
They should have made a ms version of the dt03.
Hi, do you mind measuring the width of the option no1 shocks for me. Thanks
My folks! If someone is interested, i got boat lods of CAD (3d) models for upgrades, changes and bodyshell and chassis. My son love his DT-03 Neo Fighter but "regularly" destroyed the plastic tube chassis.. i dont know how, i have never accomplished that xD but since i rebuild that thing in Fusion360 and let a machine shop make the chassis tube parts out of a solid chunk 6060alloy it never broke or even bend :D comment if you need something and i will get in touch :D
keep one Rc'ing fellas :D greets from germany
Do you have pics with the finished body?
What do with the original shocks?
Are these wheels 2.2?
I can't dye rims to save my life.
It only works on the nylon ones, sure you could do it mate 👍🏻
hugh laurie???
Jesus saves
😢
My your god go with you
