Gavin, you’re gonna go so much faster with our Disco Discs Double Dipped. Thanks so much for the feature 😊 ❤#TeamFullColour
Finally! RcRaf... Kicks! RcKicks video! During this quiet time I almost went to the dark side of YT. You know, Tomley, Popalong etc. Sweet car and build!
Nice build, make sure those roll bars are free, looks like they are a bit tight. Also the white slipper pads are more aggressive, I changed mine, preferred them much more
Well spotted, yes I did them a little too tight.
Wahoo your back 😊 I was worried I hadn’t seen any new RCKicks vids.. great to see this Gavin.. lovely build 👍👍 Pete
I needed to take some time off to get some DIY jobs done before we go into winter in the UK.
Sick build! Love the quality of the upgrades 👍🏻
Parts are amazing for sure. It surprises me just how good the CNC work is on after market parts these days in RC. I don't think people realise just how hard it is and the tooling skills needed to make high end parts on such a scale.
Awesome! Thanks from this Aussie in China!
Hows things going in China? Hows the RC market and hobby doing?
I do this to all of my trucks, even "Budget" RC . I just love upgrading❤
Family calls it an obsession🙄
So true!
Lovely build, the car looks awesome 👌 🤝
Thanks for sharing Gavin
Looks a nice bit of kit with the upgrades , definitely looking forward to seeing your journey with it and not long to carpet season 😊
Thanks again
Yep, just booked in for carpet racing next friday so I need it all ready to go for then.
@@RCKickschannel brilliant I’m sure your looking forward to it
Enjoy your evening, will take a few races for you to get it dialled the way you want it, I certainly looking forward to seeing your footage and thoughts on the way it handles .
Have a great weekend 😊👍
Great vid and some very nice WS parts added to the car! 😎
Yep, the engineering is amazing. I went a bit nuts and ordered a load of other upgrades for the B7 yesterday. Totally not a good idea but I couldn't help myself.
You’re going to want to shim the servo forward in the servo mount. You want the servo link to be parallel to the steering rack. That severe angle won’t let you have a linear feel from left to right. Get rid of the slipper too.
Yep, it needs to come forward. My plan is to replace the servo horn and add some shims to the ball joint to level it out
You want the LFR Retro style body for the B7 (RPC Distribution bring them into the UK)
Yep, looks good
Also, machined shock internals are a must have, stupid price but used them on all of my associated shocks, and found 2.5mm pistons made the car feel dead, went with three hole 2mm thick pistons
1.6 on the front and 2.0 on the rear currently. Red springs on the front and blue on the rear if I remember correctly off the top of my head.
@@RCKickschannel he’s talking about thickness of piston not hole size.
Missed you sir. Was getting a bit worried there :-)
Just taking some time off to get a few DIY outside jobs done before we head into winter in the UK
Nice buggy. I would get one if I raced. Having said that I own several buggies that were racers bitd. I just like the designs and how they drive.
``I have got used to the look but the engineering is amazing. These are a massive step up and the performance is a big eye opener when you have been used to Tamiya cars
Cannot believe you put the alloy steering rack instructions straight back in the bag, didn’t even read them 😂
I know lol 🤦🏼
@@RCKickschannel 🙄
Man, these proper race-rig kits are GORGEOUS. It’s a shame AE won’t let this level of manufacturing trickle down to a lot of their other kits/RTR (I’m looking at you, Reflex 14b kit!).
Yep, these are as flagship for the company for sure. The engineering that goes into these now is amazing. I would like to try a Team XRAY to compare.
@@RCKickschannel I did a video on the X12 (1/12th scale): th-cam.com/video/ifKPK3wg8Ig/w-d-xo.htmlsi=xonfdcgNdXVd4MGd The instructions are incredible. I will say about the Xray: parts are EXPENSIVE.
Hi Gavin, I’m looking for a 4wd 1/10 buggy for a speed run build which has metal diffs and drive train etc but most importantly easily to get spares.
Could you recommend one?
I very much like the style of this buggy so something that looks similar.
Many thanks
Who's this we? You are building the car alone 😁
B7 has some quality issues, which is a shame, but it seems to be improved/fixed in current kits.
OK, yes I have no friends so I made up my imaginary friend Dave. :)
Welcome back lol
Dear sir, would just like to "present" my opinion, I was expecting that you assemble the kit out of the box. Comment, test drive then evaluate. After these recommend the mods needed for the kit, to guide us. Maybe rate the mods according to its importants. Thank you sir.
I did this on my Team Associated B6.4. It is a load of work dismantling and reassembling the buggy over and over, so I didn't want to do that again when I now know what helped on my B6.4, and thus will work on the B7. The one I am interested in is the additional weight over the front of the car. Until I run, it I can't say if these upgrades will be a big improvement or not but I hope to get the buggy to a 50/50 distribution if I can. I know out the box, the B7 will always need some weight pushed forward to stop understeer as it's a 2WD buggy. In the next video I will be able to give you an update on the upgrade performances. A large number of the upgrades I added are to improve reliability over speed performance.
@@RCKickschannel , understood sir. Looking forward to the next videos on this and also your "Tamiya videos" [missing them]. Thanks.
Is it a tamiya after so many upgrades?
100% Triggers Broom
Why change out the rear pistons for larger holes then complain it’s to soft on the rear? 😮
Apparently the B7 likes to run better with softer oils vs the B6.4, so to me it's softer than I'm used to running. I am booked in for racing this friday so I will see how the car runs as a base line and then work from that. The shocks are current set following a pro driver on the same track as I run on so it's just a starting point. Apparently the B7 also likes a slightly higher pinion size vs B6.4 but I don't know yet.
@@RCKickschannel changing the piston hole size changes the pack which is high speed damping, it’s not the same as changing the oil which effects low speed damping.
wow....Almost the original kit price in Willspeed upgrades. So many tells me this B7 in original spec must be total Cack. Gonna give this a miss until the B7.1 comes out next week and then the B7.2 at Christmas follwed by the B7.3 early next year. Seems thats the way Team Associated have operated over the last few years !
I hear two types of comments on the B7 currently. One is it's crap out the box and I sold it, and the second is it's amazingly quick, so a polarising set of comments really. I am interested in finding out how it goes next week.
Where are you getting the tamiya thread lock? I haven't been able to find any. Everything says it's discontinued. I use to use it back in the late 90's but now that a started racing again I can't find any.
Had it for ages and came with a car
Get the yellow slip pads because the white ones will lock up your clutch, yellow will not do that.
Thanks for the info 👍🏻
Great to see you back Gav 👍, unfortunately, unless you are seriously into racing, this video was like watching paint dry, sorry 🙁.
Not for everyone
This is such a depressing video. People have bought these and built them. Basically saying they are utter rubbish. Unless you spend the kit price again.
So you need a couple of grand to compete around a church hall on the weekends?
Just nope. Selling it
When it comes to racing, you can chuck as much money at it as you like for sure. That's why I am doing a used racing setup series to show what you can get on a limited budget.
@RCKickschannel It just seems to get out of hand very quickly when you start adding things up. It's the nature of the hobby i guess. Really looking forward to the budget racer videos 👍
