DRIVER'S NAME= my cousin had a very similar ride. We gave that thing hell. Rest his soul, he passed at a young age. His name was Jason Bentley Anderson. I could see him driving it in the video. We had a blast!- especially in the night shots. Have a great vacation! Thanks for the video‼️👍👍
I have it and I am very happy with this purchase. With few mods I turned it to a real crawler : replaced the original wheels and tires with softer and bigger ones, increased the overall weight and the center of gravity to improve the climbing abilities and now it is a real tank and goes everywhere.
I saw that Whistlin Diesel G-Wagon video a couple nights ago, that was crazy what he put it through but as you said it held up well in the dunes. Enjoy your holiday mate
it's fine i put monster truck wheels on a df02 tamiya - rising storm, but its really slow, i dont understand the mechanics, i dont want to bash it, its 12T brushed motor, should be decent speed, not sure
Dude it’s too bad that’s not officially licensed because the detail on that thing is epic! It surprised me how good it could crawl as well! And the suspension definitely looks realistic, just saw the WD video where he took it to the dunes and the suspension on his real one looked very similar
I hope you're enjoying your vacation. It's a very cool looking little crawler. I think it would be fun to have. Thanks for sharing. Would It perform as well in cooler weather?
That's definitely going above and beyond, taking the mini G Wagon to its natural habitat, in the UAE!! Nice job!! I hope you're slapping on the factor 50!!?!! 🥵
great little truck! seems capable of doing a lot of things with some minor upgrades. thanks for taking the time out of your vacation to edit and show us this video. also very happy that you and the camel were smiling at the end! hahaha! clever shot by your wife or whoever was behind the camera. cheers Phil! enjoy what's left for your holidays and we'll see you in the next one!
Considering its a die-cast body and pogo stick shocks it preformed well . Cute little thing. Looked cool running at night . Enjoy the rest of your holiday Phil 👍
I know of where you was , my sister an brother in law live in Abu Dhabi and I was helping my sister look for a new apartment one of which was behind that big twin building. I love that country.
I was impressed with my landrover defender d90 for the price and that it’s die-cast body. I am wanting to put in different tires on it (if possible) just to make it run a bit smoother? Or perhaps newer shocks? Hydrate and thanks for sharing your point of view!❤
looks large for 1/24 but.. really nice looking, especially lit up in darkness. excellent detail, naturally top heavy being metal body, nice suspension too. if you can find good dampers for it that'll help some.
Regarding the friction shocks, I agree that the small scale stuff including 1/18th works well: Near as dammit the right amount of bounce over the terrain. Hope the holiday went well!
Yeah the prices on ALI express and Banggood have gone through the roof recently. The RGT Pioneer is now $400 CDN + $200 shipping, and the HG P407 used to be $300 + $40 Shipping it's now $300 shipping (approx). In many cases, banggod will advertise a low price but "does not ship to Canada".
Sweet little rig pinecone model have been stepping up their crawler game I have the sg 2801 great little rig but it’s more of a trail truck than crawler
Great video. I just received today and I have a issue with my sg2401. When i driving it the car stops and looking for signal and then starts again and then stops again looking the signal. Maybe you can helping me out here how to fix it or what is going on
Maaaaan!!!!!!! I saw that G Wagon video as well. He has another one that just came out where he drove it into a mud pool.. Mouth was wide open in awe…lol &&& .. he has this offloading technique that is just insane when he takes it off the trailer…..lolll.. 😮😮😮😮😮 .... he really does have GOBS of money, you can tell with his disposition and temperament ..lol. Very entertaining.. and I would need only maybe a quarter of his net worth ….lol. But I loved Abu Dhabi.. stayed just outside of Dubai city and literally drove to Abu Dhabi for a month while my wife and I were doing invetro back in 2012. .. looks a lot more developed since then… Anyway.. enjoy UAE Phil, and great vid!
Oh so you are in Abu Dhabi?! If ever you visit Dubai, maybe you can give me one of your rigs lol! Pass by Dubai mall (where I work), Lets have some Karak tea!
@@TomleyRC owning an RC version of the G320 Cabrio and G500 from Tamiya is enough for me too. Overpriced in full size, especially as they drive from gas station to gas station with those V8s (no diesel here).
Nice footage mate looks awesome 😁👍😂🤣😂 nearly lost it then 🤣😂 I've got an friend who lives out there just a bit west from where you are in Qatar he's got the real thing all pimped out 😂🤣 hope you have fun buddy 😊🙋♂️
I get the 1/24 thing but I don't like this one I'll stick with my MN86K G-Wagon thank you very much! I live in Bradford honestly think there are more G-Wagons here and there nearly all the AMG versions too!
I'm back now. I went to Ferrari world the first time I was out there. Decent experience :) Went to the New 'Warner Bro's World' this time, really good 👍
@@TomleyRC I was out in 2017 for the GP, EXPENSIVE!!! £10 for a pint! My best friends brother works out there so at least accommodation was cheep. Strange place but worth a visit. And like you said G wagons everywhere.
@@ChasingplasticCars I was at the 2018 GP, I'd say one of the best places/weekends on the F1 calendar. But not cheap, although got to see Guns N Roses as well on the Sunday (Golden Circle). My Father In-law works out there, although this time we stayed in the Sheraton, just round the corner from his apartment. 👍
Thats Blackpool lol 😆 😂 they wish 🤭 fantastic review and a great test as always and as you said Diecast 😱 so it can be a ornament model and Rc 🤪 lights are cool to 👍am like a hermit crab at the moment 🥺 ill hopefully be out off my shell one day bro 😀 awesome video mate 👍😁👍

Thanks dude. Sorry about your cousin
The combo of heavy body and no oil in the shocks works amazingly well in creating a good scale look
I have it and I am very happy with this purchase. With few mods I turned it to a real crawler : replaced the original wheels and tires with softer and bigger ones, increased the overall weight and the center of gravity to improve the climbing abilities and now it is a real tank and goes everywhere.
What size wheels did you manage to fit? I got one on order, and I plan on getting/making some mods. Tires being my 1st mod
Great night time footage, pretty surprising tbh that truck 👍
Thanks mate
Love the British tan 😉
And yes, I get it too...
😅
I saw that Whistlin Diesel G-Wagon video a couple nights ago, that was crazy what he put it through but as you said it held up well in the dunes. Enjoy your holiday mate
Yeah, took way more than I expected! Home now… back to the grind 😅
That video was cool. That guy has too much disposable cash.
I refuse to watch anything he does he is a dunce
@@newbornlog2789 thanks for that
I just came back from Abu Dhabi and Dubai. Enjoy
I’ve been waiting for 1/18 diecast RC’s
Have fun in UAE Phil!
Please do some upgrades make it ridiculously good
Cool video with an epic montage at the end. The truck is wicked too. Didn't know diecast RC's was a thing. Looked like a great holiday Phil 😎
Thanks Arron. Yeah, had an awesome time
I'm glad you found time to get out into the dunes while you were there.
I love this little vehicle!
have a good holiday! great video that!
Thanks Andy. I’m back now 👍
@@TomleyRC ha ha ha! well.. maybe you can help me fix my RC then!
it's fine i put monster truck wheels on a df02 tamiya - rising storm, but its really slow, i dont understand the mechanics, i dont want to bash it, its 12T brushed motor, should be decent speed, not sure

The coldest time of the day in that place is as soon as the Sun starts Rising.
Sure is a neat looking little truck.
It feels as hot in the UK as where you are now.
I’m home now… yeah, pretty hot here at the mo
Man that thing looks incredible
Awesome looking little wagon, Phil! It really runs nicely! 😃
Great review! And enjoy your trip there!!!
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
That night shot where the frame rate matched the wheel speed, looks sick😁😁
Thanks Victor. I knew it would look good at night… glad you enjoyed
G-Wagon part 2 just dropped and amazing video
Yes just watched it. 😅
Tbh it's kind of cute xd
I hope you're enjoying your vacation. It's a very cool looking little crawler. I think it would be fun to have. Thanks for sharing. Would It perform as well in cooler weather?
Back home now. It’s performance surprised me, I thought it would tip over way more
Gotta say, love the look of that little thing. Goes pretty well too!
That's pretty cool 😎😎
That's definitely going above and beyond, taking the mini G Wagon to its natural habitat, in the UAE!! Nice job!! I hope you're slapping on the factor 50!!?!! 🥵
Haha… yeah, had a quick holiday at the same time 😅

Aww, what a cute Lil G-Wagon. Keep it away from Whistlindiesel, hes' gone mad, lol.
Considering its a die-cast body and pogo stick shocks it preformed well . Cute little thing. Looked cool running at night . Enjoy the rest of your holiday Phil 👍
Those night time shots were amazing 🤩
Thank you
Hope you brought one for Abby to play with too! Nothing like racing down hotel hallways!😝🏁🏎
Haha
Its so difficult to work while on vacation. kudos to you & awesome video!!!
Please tell me u r on the mission to secure the Land cruiser pickup 😂
Haha.. if I could, I would 😅
I wish I saw this video earlier... I would give you a tour around my city

Hola Amigo muy buenos dias como estas , consigues autos muy bonitos y de bajo costo gracias Amigo genial exitos siempre

This is how I wish all crawlers looked.. I love it
One more thing I believe they have an indoor ski resort there, if you wish to cool off.
Cool enough in any building 😅
Love the night time footage 🥵👊🏻👍🏻
Looks like someone has been watching whistlindiesel
Yeah, his Hilux and G-Wagon videos are pretty good 😅
I wish the mn86 had lights and paint like this
Amazing my friend 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤠👍🇮🇩

Back home now, but it was awesome
That place is gorgeous I hope I can go one day maybe catch a ufc event while I'm there big dreams not gonna happen on my current income haha
HAPPY HOLIDAY PHIL EVEN THOUGH YOUR HOME😋. THANKS FOR POSTING SIR HAVE TO COMMENT MY FRIEND 🇬🇧😉👍🏼
Thanks Mike :)
The body weight makes this look a lot more scale over bumps. Add some oil filled dampers and it’d probably be really nice
Have you seen - Pinecone SG 2402
Brilliant video Tony nice car have a brilliant holiday 😀👍👏
Thanks Mogg
@@TomleyRC no worries chat soon when you go live streaming OK

I’m in ahby dahby! Lol
I believe there are more G-wagons in Beijing. In my community we already have 3 different ones: AMG G500, standard G500 and a G350
I’d love one… just a little too expensive for me 😅

Hi Phil
Welcome to the UAE😍
Hi. Had an awesome time (my 3rd time there)
We all need a kick in the rear end every now and then,😋✌🏼🇬🇧

Didn't like it on the sand, then came night time in the city it looked great.
Yes, I knew it would look good at night, made a special trip out, and came home like a drowned rat 🥵
@@TomleyRC worth the soggy socks mate great footage of the car overall.
Nice Phil 👌 will you be reviewing the rapioly scy 16302

Please reply between X-maxx and Losi DB XLE which one to go for?
My requirement is should be fast and fun along with durable
Never had an Xmaxx. But the DBXLE is awesome
