This video is for you, the select few that went looking for help on assembling their new RC hauler pit bag, especially the ones like me that didn’t get any instructions :) Assembly is for the Proline 1/8 hauler bag but most all other rolling RC hauler bags should be a very similar construction. If nothing else, it is good practice for me to make more and better quality how-to content, right? Th...

    great vid.. id like to have this kind of glue and needle to try this myself... , . I just bought a mini t 2,0 brushless and it wears of tires like a madman.. Im experimenting with making my own tyres too. But then with Lego rubber...... Did you balanced the wheels? Cuz mine goes 65kph and ,,well :) haha.... ,,,nice driving at the end btw

      Thanks! I didn't find a need to balance the wheels but at 65kph maybe it would become more necessary. I never take mine outside and stretch their legs that far haha. Have fun!

      Thank you! Infinity cars are definitely not only for team drivers. They have a great customer base and lots of shared information between customers and team drivers. The engine here is the OS Speed R21 Shimo edition-very fast! Got 4th in the A final with it in 1/8 expert at the final race at Steel City! 💪

    • @hotdogrocketshiprctechtips4352
      @hotdogrocketshiprctechtips4352 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks! One 1/10 buggy tire unfortunately can’t build two mini tires, but I suspect if you were cutting up 1/10 truck tires you could do a 2:1 ratio!

    • @weylinrose1766

      If they made the tread patterns I wanted then I would accept your gracious offer 😄 Back when I started doing this there was literally no carpet tires on the market for a mini. Now they have some decent options but I still find myself building custom tires :)

  • @johnnycash7803
    @johnnycash7803 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Do these tires work good on loose dirt also?

    • @weylinrose1766
      @weylinrose1766 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      While I'm sure they would work well I would choose a different tread if building custom tires for dirt. There are also good dirt tread tires available from JConcepts, Proline, and Losi, but none make quality treads for carpet (yet).

  • @BurgerurgerFPV
    @BurgerurgerFPV 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Do you think i can put weights in the wheels to keep it on the ground and give it better traction? I want to drive it on dirt mostly so could i also swap the front wheels for another set of the back wheels?

    • @hotdogrocketshiprctechtips4352
      @hotdogrocketshiprctechtips4352 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      You can definitely run rear tires all the way around if you want. It's great the at the 2.0 uses the same wheels f/r. In general if you want to add weight to a vehicle to add traction it's better if it's sprung weight (meaning on the chassis) rather than unsprung weight (on the suspension arm/wheel/tire). However, building custom mini tires like I'm showing in this video usually adds some weight to the wheel because the carcass for 1/10 tires is thicker than 1/18 tires, so there's a small amount of added rubber. From what I can tell it doesn't seem to hurt the performance but it certainly helps it cartwheel like a frisbee! Cheers
