Thanks mate. I do often see people getting it wrong, or not understanding it. mostly on the 1/8 Motorbikes/Trikes etc... they expect all 1/8's to be really big.
@@TomleyRC My latest irritation with that is the Axial Yeti Jr Can Am. Because the jr. is marketed as a 1/16, so many YT'ers state that the side by side is 1/16th when it is actually bang on the dimensions of a 1/10 Can Am (and for that, I want one badly).
@@Maschine_Fuhrer Scale is basically percentage. So if you say something is 1/5th, it should mean it's 20% (5 times smaller, or 1/5 the size) of the real thing. But, you will get companies saying "This is a 1/10 chassis, so everything we put on it is 1/10th scale" So we end up in a world were Mitsubishi Colts and Chev Impalas are the same size 😆 Tamiya made the exception. Their original touring car chassis they made, the TA-01 (258mm x 185mm) was spot on 1/10 for the Skyline they sold on it. They made the M01 chassis for the Morris Mini. Because it's tiny, the chassis was tiny in 1/10. 208mm wheelbase. But so happens, that the 1/0 chassis was exact size of a Mini in 1/8 scale so they made a 1/8 mini and put it on a normal chassis later. So just like this truck. The chassis is made for 1/5th touring cars so no way the truck is the same size as a mid size 4 door saloon, so it can't be 1/5th.
Awesome !! After being a HGV fitter for 25years before ending up in a wheelchair. This truck is just incredible , Keep up the great work on the channel 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
I never get tired of seeing the truck in action. So freakin cool as hell,lol. You should get a friend to get one and have a drag race with them. Gas (petrol) vs brushless 8s,lol
@@TomleyRC I think you did the right thing... you know electrics , it’s got line lockers does burnouts n drifts , I can’t see that happening in standard ‘race’ form! Love it
Something a little off topic. Are the white caravan things in the background a film set location? If so what’s being filmed on your base? I’m guessing Endeavour?
That is fast, i used to have a FG Monster Beetle 26cc that was a Size , two of my friends had FG 23cc on road AMG Mercedes , so I know how big they are and do 50+ is very Fast for that.
@@TomleyRC yes stupidly fast lol it had a nova Rossi size 11 nitro engine with a tuned pipe and it was 2 speed took it to a track for a race and the "professional racers" said NO ended up selling it as was way to fast for me and way to fast to be a street basher lol
I appreciate that you're one of the few rc youtubers who understands the concept of what scale means and how it works. I just had to acknowledge that.

@@Rex_Stuph thank you
I was literally wondering yesterday if we were ever going to see this massive beast again. Well done.
Glad you enjoyed it :)
Really appreciate seeing seeing something less mainstream like this.....thanks!
I like to do different stuff 😎👌
You make truck RCs look very interesting, absolutely mental seeing a truck of all things hitting those speeds. Great video mate
Crazy thing isn't it haha... I love it
Awesome !! After being a HGV fitter for 25years before ending up in a wheelchair. This truck is just incredible , Keep up the great work on the channel 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks Rob. I love it... one of my favourites
Loved that inside shot of the differential spinning.
Cheers dude. I liked that shot too
lol awesome. Its funny it hit 55mph because here in the states the max speed for semi trucks is 55. Good build I enjoyed it. I hit that bell.
haha, that's awesome
Absolutely love that! Looks more fun than even a Felony
I have no idea why someone would give this vid a thumbs down.. that thing is beautiful. Well done 👍
Yeah... that's TH-cam for you!
The ones who gave it a thumbs down I'm just gonna say they're probably jealous they don't have a truck this cool 😄
Love that truck, mad power drifting 4x2. Those brakes aswell. I live this conversion
Yes, lots more potential for this. More power.... more burn't rubber!
Bad ass rig. Cant wait to get one.
That thing is freaking awesome! Nice job on the conversion. Front brakes burnout 👍👍😃
Does some awesome burnouts for sure!
Phil that is awesome you know I love brushless and large scale so this is just heaven thanks for this upload Phil
Cheers dude. This is one of my favourite RCs :)
That thing is sick!
I never get tired of seeing the truck in action. So freakin cool as hell,lol. You should get a friend to get one and have a drag race with them. Gas (petrol) vs brushless 8s,lol
The nice thing about speed runs with something this big, is you can see it in the video.
Yes, and when it goes passed you, you can feel it!
This thing sounds like a jet going by you! The first person GoPro views were just great! So much fun for a ride along...
Yeah, this has plenty of space for extra on board Cameras :)
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS TRUCK 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Love the truck man. I like red rcs but this orange looks really nice
Crazy fast! Despite being heavy and 2wd! That's some topnotch RC
Cheers Ian
That’s a beast of a unit , well done mate. Much love from Australia.
WOW Awesome RC Lorry!
I was wondering when we'd see it again... awesome tomley!
Cheers dude. Glad you enjoyed it
@@TomleyRC more than that lol I neeed it. Great video as always!
That thing is ridiculous...awsome...thumbs up for the vid...
Cheers dude 😎
Awesome ride, Tomley! 😃
This little truck is crazy fun! 😃
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
It's a little crazy!
That's a sweet rig🚀 and unusual.. You don't see many and that's always a good thing bud👍
I just got my first set of arrma hoons belted.. They rip 😊
The Arrma Hoons are decent
That’s actually cool as hell
I can see why you're chuckling so much! It's hilarious fun!!!!!!!!!! 🚚😂
Yes, it was so funny
That is awesome 55mph wow. Some of my friends have 1/6th rc tanks/panzers armatec & Mark-one. The merc' must cost a mint. What a great hobby.
It's a beast! I only paid £300 for the Truck (with the stock 25cc motor)
O M Goodness you lucky son of a gun.
Time to go back and see how this beast started life, loving it! don't mind me, i'm just catching up on your vids :)
Awesome Big Truck, shes moving Phil, does a decent burnout too! 👊😆🍻
Yeah, put plenty of rubber on the road!
What a great build! Really enjoyed watching that run 👍🍻
Thanks mate
Awesome truck and footage
Thanks Jason
One of the more unique RC on YT.. (also hate when the GoPro GPS never works)
Thanks mate
Love a race truck, love a 2 stroke large scaler but I love your take on this! Cheers mate 😉
I'd of kept it 2 Stroke... but the noise is to much for anywhere near where I live
@@TomleyRC I think you did the right thing... you know electrics , it’s got line lockers does burnouts n drifts , I can’t see that happening in standard ‘race’ form! Love it
Very nice indeed love it 🤩 very nice speed
Well done! She is super cool bro
yeah, it's awesome!
Monster truck is a monster👍👍💯💯
That's really is an awesome looking rc I love it 😀nice video Phil
Cheers mate. It's a beast!
Awesome! Sounds wicked!
Yeah, it's a beast!
That beast is dynamite!!
My son just asked if could have any rc, what would it be? I told him a 5th scale of some sort! And here you are showing me a 5th scale!
haha...
That is a very badass truck
Should try some kind of dual motor setup.
That is cool as! I love it 👍👍👍👍
Love it, so much power!
Yes, seems to have a massive amount of power. I might throw some more weight over the back wheels and tow some stuff
@@TomleyRC sounds cool!
I need one of these in my life
Amusing truck! Am curious, what mount do you use to attach your phone / camera to your transmitter?
It's a GoPro 'Claw' I think it's called
beau camion et beau rc tout court
Hell yes,i love the big fat silicone battery wires,dont they just feel awesome/tactile silicone wire lolz
Yeah haha me too
I think you should get one of the horizon jet planes and turn this into a jet truck. Who else thinks that would be completely EPIC
Love it to bits!!!!!!!
That’s awesome!! I love racing semi trucks! You’ve got enough motor/electrics for 130mph. Ide love to see you hit 100mph in that :)
I think the body may stop it getting to 100 haha.... but would be fun to try!
Brilliant this thing!!!
Love the colour 😀😀🤩👍🙏🏻
Something a little off topic.
Are the white caravan things in the background a film set location? If so what’s being filmed on your base? I’m guessing Endeavour?
That's just a long term storage for Caravans
Thanks :-D
Love that monster!!! Awesome mate 💥💫💫💥🤘👍👍
Fantastic job I'm considering electric conversion for my dbxl.
I had a DBXLe.... awesome buggy
@@TomleyRC love it but hard to find somewhere to run it due to the noise. So thinking electric conversion would be better.
@@wayneweston123 Yes, that’s why I like electric.... it’s less offensive!
Faster than I expected! How much do you think the body slows it down? I'd be interested to see what little extra you'd get with the body off.
Yes, I'm planning to put a small car body on it at some point. I expect it's knocking a few mph off the top speed
@@TomleyRC nice, look forward to seeing it.
Awesome truck. But more to the point that airfield is sick.
Very welldone you have there... awsome...👍
Awesome 🚚 fun 🤘 have you added a mental huge wing yet?
This thing is insane!!!!!!!!
It's a little crazy for sure!
@@TomleyRC yes 🤣🤣🤣
Ace! I wonder where you get tyres for this little monster?
These were the ones that came on it
Since last vídeo of This truck i was waiting for it. Uau love this thing. 😁😍
It's a beast! Hopefully get it out again when the weather warms up
"This things' so funny, it's sooooo fast FOR A BIG THING!!!!!!.......... 😣 DOH!!!! THAT'S WHAT SHE SAID!! 🤣👍💯💥
haha
love this truck great Machine ive subbed mate to your other👍😊👊🤟🇬🇧😎
Cheer dude :)
Coolest truck
That's Tuff 💯🔥🌡
Ok now that is sooooo cool ahaha just how big it is and fast
It's a cool truck!
My neighbour has a 1/5 petrol racing truck. It is so cool 🚚
That would hurt if it hit you. Decent speed for such a big truck. Nice.
Yes... probably break a few bones!
Hi
Love your vids
Thanks dude
So cool
That is fast, i used to have a FG Monster Beetle 26cc that was a Size , two of my friends had FG 23cc on road AMG Mercedes , so I know how big they are and do 50+ is very Fast for that.
Yes, awesome things!
Awesome 😎
Doughnuts and coffee...make it a large...lol
And now what will you do with those wheels? Are there spares available???
You can get them... but they are not cheap!
Nice 👍 Burnout
She's ORANGE "i love Orange" 🤣🙏💪🇬🇧
Me to. Such a happy color.
That thing is Rapid, would be interested to see what it would actually pull.. (weight wise) as it seems currently to have torque to spare....
Maybe I should hook it up to my car.... give it a go!
@@TomleyRC that would make an awesome video.
And its the correct colour
That is awesome if you ever put it up for sale I would be intrested it would look good in my collection
Definitely needs a case of liquor strapped on the back 🤣
Excellent ! :-)
I used to have a team magic g4 black magic 1/10th scale with a truck shell it was good for 100+ mph and that thing was stupidly fast
That is fast!
@@TomleyRC yes stupidly fast lol it had a nova Rossi size 11 nitro engine with a tuned pipe and it was 2 speed took it to a track for a race and the "professional racers" said NO ended up selling it as was way to fast for me and way to fast to be a street basher lol
My missus hates you, because now I want a drift truck! 😅
hahahaha
WOW!!!!!!
With that battery it must last hours of playtime no?
I think I got about 30mins
Please make a video building a tamiya drift truck
Fg ❤️
What electric conversion does it use?
Finally!
Madness
I wonder how it would be on speed without the extra battery
I think the motors pretty powerful, so not sure it would be any faster
Use that ballast battery to power lights.
Good idea!
9:27 is that drive shaft rubbing on the sway bar link?
What mah size of battery do use on this to get 30mins?
This truck looks great amazing skills, now it has! Great project Bro!!
Thanks dude
