Tamiya always cool rc
You have an awesome place to run your buggies. Nice run looked like a lot of fun.
It is a great place to run em. I'm sure I'll go there one day and it'll be gone though, always the way! Thanks mate, yeah it was fun! 👍
That runs great 😊
Thanks mate! Yeah I think it ran well. 👍
Youre a brave man Mick. I would have left that one on the shelf with all that gold trimming and the black body. Nicely done though.
I may regret running it in years to come but I figure I'll be too old to care by then 🤣. It did get a few scratches but overall still pretty tidy. Thanks mate! 👍
It flies! Literally. It is amazing to see how one of the first chassis developed by Tamiya, performs so well, showing great agility and stability. And it is a rwd! In addition, it looks spectacular with the gold chrome details, a delight. Thanks for sharing, mate!
It does mate! Absolutely, for such an old and simple design it runs very well. I agree, it looks great with the gold wheels and stickers. Glad you enjoyed it mate, thanks! 👍
That little buggy was built to fly, I didn't know Tamiya did rc planes😂
Nicely driven Mick👌🦘🇦🇺
Yeah it did quite well. I expected it to fly more like a plane with one wing missing lol
Thanks mate! 👍

Haha same here but it soared like a majestic eagle 🤣look at my vocabulary... I had to look up how to spell majestic🥴😂
@@outbackrcaustralia4895 Haha, yes it is majestic. Thanks mate, now I can add majestic and vocabulary to my vocabulary! 🤣👍
@@RCHobbyShed
Oh yehhh vocabulerary! That's 2 knew words I can talk now 🧐😀Jenius!
Good looking buggy
Thanks, they do look great with the gold on black 👍
I believe it's the best handling Hopper they ever made.
Runs like a champ, nice video.
Thanks mate! 👍
how did i miss this Video , Man These Fighter Buggy's are awesome Fun to drive seriously , and also they handle surprisingly really well , and hows that air your getting , some nice shots will be coming out of these Mick, Also i ve meaning to ask your footage is crisp and Crystal Clear Mick even when the cars are zooming by must be some Good Tech Going on there LOL , cheers Mick and Thanx for another Awesome Trackshow :-)
You might have missed it as you've been busy building RC's lol. Yeah they do go great and handle very well for a hopper style chassis. Haha, nothing too high-tech going on, just a GoPro Hero 9 Black and some magic lol.. Thanks Andrew! 👍
Another great video. Thanks heaps
Thanks George, glad you enjoyed it mate! 👍
I want to fly down to Australia just to send my solid axle Tamiya's off that smooth jump of yours! It's the perfect launch to send them straight and level!
Haha, yeah it is the perfect place for long smooth jumping. 👍
But I think even the original one with the friction dampers handled equivalent to the super hornet because of the way the shocks were.
Seems like a well balanced buggy over the jumps ...Nice video 😎👌
It surprised me, it handled the jumps very well for a hopper style buggy. Thanks! 👍
I know its a basic designed car, but ever since I owned a Hornet then went to a independent OIL shock car, Ive never liked the rolling rear axle design in these things. Good for the 1st timers though.
And then I would go into the super hornet after that and then the Black edition grasshopper 2 with a four CVA shocks
Fantastic stuff again Mick!😁👍 I have an original RX still with friction shocks though but definitely going to hop up to oil ones seeing how yours performed on those landings! Don't use mine that much but that could change!😉
How do you rate that driving experience to the Hopper 2 the other day??
Thanks James! Yeah the CVA's do really help on jumps. Go on, get it out for a run! 😁
It did feel a little better to drive than the GH2 but the motor is quite a bit slower than the RZ. Just a little less bouncy. 👍
@@RCHobbyShed yeah Mick it looked not bad in handling! Surprisingly balanced!
Yeah l will get mine out for a spin very soon! I Don't do enough running these days! I surpose its because l have to get up so damn early to get the beach free and to myself and when its a day off work that's tough to do lol😁
@@mad-beerc3818 Yeah it was quite good. I hear ya mate, it's getting harder to get out all the time for one reason or another. Haha, same here, I like to get to my running locations before everyone else is out of bed. 👍
@@RCHobbyShed 😉👍
performs real good. was it more durable than the 4wd fire dragon? at least it didn't break this time
Yeah it does, quite surprising for a hopper style chassis. Hard to say if it was any more durable as the Fire Dragon was running a faster motor and better battery which made for harder landings and more cartwheels lol... but yeah it didn't break, so that's a bonus! 👍
PRODUCT STRESS TEST RESULT: PASS, ADD WINGS FOR FLIGHT MODE
That looks way more planted than the Grasshopper 2. I guess the longer (?) wheel-base and better weight distribution play a major part. It looked really assured on the jumps and berms. A right little ripper!
It's is quite a bit better to drive. That's right, the wheelbase is around 40mm longer, plus the rear shocks are laying down a lot more so they work smoother. Yeah, in all it is the better car to drive of the two I think. 👍
What is the c rating on the battery you're using?
This one is a Nvision 2s 30c 3700mah. It's only a soft pack and not huge power but they're a nice fit. 👍
👍🤓🇦🇺
Thanks Paul! 👍
