Tamiya Holiday Buggy Upgrade

- A gift from the RC ELF, the holiday buggy is awesome fun, but was pretty mundane with the stock 380 motor and 10t pinion. We installed a Tamiya 18t pinion and an HPI RACING Firebolt 15t 540 motor

Buggy looks so cool,awesome upgrade, much better 👍👍😀😀
I love it even more now. The fact that it does wheelies took me by supprise
S also a cool looking rc buggy glad the gears didn't suffer any catastrophic catastrophe and wit bigger motor looks good rc elf is legend 👍
Thanks for watching my friend. Yes the RC ELF is an amazing friend
@@IowaBudgetRCBashers sure is bro keep up the good work ill be watching 👍
@@keithsmodelsandrcs6593 thank you 🤘
Thad and Gray have all the cool toys!!
Lol my wife went into our RC room the other day and sent me a video saying I think you and Grayson have a problem lol 😂 it’s amazing how fast these things collect isn’t it lol. Thanks for watching brother ✌️
cool upgrade and great run
Really woke it up. Thanks for watching my friend
I forgot to comment on the other video, I love your intro thing, it's got a ton of energy!
That's a significant upgrade to that buggy! I didn't see it before but I've seen other videos with the 380 motor and it hasn't been fast...
DT-02 is a great buggy, I just built one a couple weeks ago, I am putting a video together about it, should be ready any day soon.
I love this thing. The motor really made it fun. Thanks for the feedback on the intro. Some people say it’s too long, but personally I think it grabs peoples attention 😁
I need to get a HB . 👍👍👍
It was fun to build, also fun to see the speed with the stock 380 and then the 15t 540. Side note totally recommend those hpi racing motors for the price ya can’t beat it. Thanks for watching my friend
Way faster indeed!
It’s a hot rod now 😁 I expected a problem with using the 18t and almost sent you a message before I tried it but it worked beautifully. I knew it’d be faster, wasn’t expecting wheelies like that😎
@@IowaBudgetRCBashers I would replace the pinion eventually as it may wear out the spur gear a little quicker being a little loose but from the video it didn't look super loose so you should be good for a while. Much better than too tight! It really turns into a whole new car with a fast motor and some oil shocks. Seeing as you went with the HPI motor with the longer shaft you can get a standard sized pinion as there is enough room on the shaft. The Tamiya motors have shorter shaft lengths on the stock, sport and torque tuned so you have to run that slim Tamiya gear.
@@AddamsPlayground I checked it with a piece of paper, probably should’ve showed that. Equal all the way across so I think I’ll be ok. There’s no slipping issues that I can tell.
Very nice upgrade guys! It definitely does it justice now! Now you can paint a real big smile on the RC elf drivers face!😁👊🏼✌🏻
Woke the thing up a lot. Still couldn’t Brit was doing wheelies. Honestly though I’m just glad the 18t pinion worked 😁
Noice!
Still by far one of my favorite RC’s we own
Man your videos take me back to my roots. I've posted new video. You need a track
Yes we do need a track
