Proboat Blackjack 29 v3: 4s vs 6s lipo
มุมมอง 2.2K7 ปีที่แล้ว
Proboat Blackjack 29 v3 I'm new to boats, this is only my second day running the BJ29. The first run was running 2x2s 6000mah 35c Zippy's whilst the second was running 2x3s 5800mah 60c Zippy's. The boat itself is running completely stock - stock electrics and stock prop. The only thing I adjusted was the LVC. I'm hoping this video will give a good comparison between running 4s & 6s speed wise. ...

    Hi great video, I just had one delivered today also an eBay finds , its been in a garage for ten or more years unused , it's very dirty but after unsticking the engine it turns over nice with the pull start , no body shell but I have a few to try out until I find the correct one and no radio gear but I have spares to use on the truggy , right now I have sprayed it with wd40 and i will let that soak over night and tomorrow see if I can get the engine to run and see if the two servos work , the wheels and tires look good with no cracking to the rubber just need a clean and regluing, so up to now I pleased with my £40 including the postage eBay find , how did you get on with your own truggy did you find any problems mate 🇬🇧

    Recently picked one up also, However, the motor is cooked in it, and it seems here, Nitro is all but a thing of the past, it's hard to get the fuel, much less a sleeve and piston for it! I'm really concerned about making parts and converting it over to electric, which I know makes no sense as there are much better platforms nowadays for electric trucks.

    Hi James, just found your channel, nice content! Curious what persuaded the decision to go HB for 2WD versus a more common buggy? I'll confess I am a bit curious about the vehicle, but the fact here in the States is runs almost double the cost compared to other 2WD buggies is a big off putting. Lastly, that is one heck of a facility you have there, not a back place to call home is it? Take care!

    Hopefully it shifts gear for you. I got a brand new previous gen 4.6 X that was sitting in HRP’s warehouse. Yep, emailed them everyday for almost two weeks and they finally emailed me back asking me to stop contacting them. So funny, they said they’d make one available online. It was $499 and on HRP’s website they offer a $30 coupon for purchases over $250. They ship directly from Utah so there’s no sales and shipping was also free. So yes, brand new 4.6X that was last generation, but again was brand new just sitting in a warehouse for years. $470 and that bad boy was all mine. It’s stuck in second so no wheelies. I’ll have to get into the transmission one day and sort it all out. Good luck

    I got one of these , bought from brand new ran once has a friend ran over it with his nitro monster truck causing it full throttle into a kerb, I did a major expensive rebuild and a different engine from the hpi rush , but unfortunately it never ran so I borrowed the radio crystal and a steering servo for my hyboa which I don't have now, so my Mt2 is sat in its original box collecting dust , unfortunately

  • @michaelnordin3006
    @michaelnordin3006 ปีที่แล้ว

    I have the same one I bought it probably 20 something years ago brand new. I'm pretty sure I put a 2 speed transmission in it and bought the best engine hpi had to offer in it at the time. Unfortunately it sits in a plastic bin in my basement so I don't break it lol. So cool to see someone else that actually has one still in good condition!

  • @MostlyHelpful
    @MostlyHelpful ปีที่แล้ว

    Useful video, thanks. I've been trying to get mine to run reliably, but I'm not having much luck. It just about starts (via rotostart) but won't run for more than a few seconds. Like yours mine is covered in fuel so I suspect I've got a leak somewhere.

    • @KITLEYJA
      @KITLEYJA ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks for the comment! If there’s a way for fuel to leak out then there’s also a way for air to get in which ruins the tune. Once you fix the leak it’ll run much better. Also check your idle gap - you want about 1-1.5mm. Any less and it’ll struggle to keep running👍🏻

  • @hw9695
    @hw9695 ปีที่แล้ว

    Mines got the roto start... which do you think is better

    • @KITLEYJA
      @KITLEYJA ปีที่แล้ว

      They both have their pro’s and cons - the roto start you have to remember to charge the battery and bring it with you. But the pull starts can break leaving you stranded if you don’t have a spare. I also get blisters on my fingers!😂

      I've got one these but the mt2 18ss version they share most parts with the rs4 if you ever need parts for the.

  • @David-069
    @David-069 ปีที่แล้ว

    Having fun. That is pretty clean and there fast enough for a single speed but i believe the rs4 two speed fits straight on these and the G3.0 engine bolts straight to the chassis for some extra mph

    • @KITLEYJA
      @KITLEYJA ปีที่แล้ว

      The plan is to ultimately drop a G3.0 in (I believe the later MT2’s shipped with them fitted?!). But now you mention the RS4 2 speed…..that’s an epic idea! Thanks!

    Aww waw great Nitro this is what I raced back in 2008 I had a cool BMW m3 bidy in black for mine yeah! Nothing ever went wrong with just remember to empty the tank when your finished and having it sitting a couple of days the fuel clogged in the lines on it but just let it idea out of fuel get the air filter for it they definitely need it mine ran alot better with one there not for show on these HPI RS4 evos mine used to stall like heck without it or if the top got clogged with crap! They go through plugs like mad so grab alot! This remedied with the air filter the engine wasn't heating up as much to kill the coils! What mixture nitro you using in it? Was just but rich n idea could do with being turned down another slight turn another thing with mine if it went on its roof get to it quickly it floods it and trying to bleed it was the quickest way getting it back running but you'll pick the wee temperamental thing of it up through time I loved mine so much mine got stolen from the work shed had everything for it! They stole the lot!

    i know this is an older video, but i am super curious what the difference between the 817 v2 and the 819 is.. or if it is even worth upgrading to the 819.. i got my hands on a second hand 817 v2 recently and i love the platform. i am also curious if the 819 parts will fit on the 817 due to the 817 being phased out soon.

    • @joshdsm1

      All the rs has is basically a 2mm smaller chassis. All 819 parts are cross compatible to the 817 v2. I just bought a nice lightly used 817 v2 to run and upgrade to the 819 ram down the road.
