We've had no issues with the belts, either on the RS1 or RS2. I've not needed to replace them on my BD11s or MS1 either. MB models are the Yokomo distributor in the UK and hold most parts in stock :)
Good timing! We're just home from another race day, where my young lad campaigned the RS2.0 really strongly. He just missed our A Final, despite running the HW 17.5t combo against full blinky spec cars. Setup wise, we've not done much. We have fitted the roll bar kit and fod the first time today, we slotted in a front spool. The car was bang on the pace, winning all 3 B final legs easily. I have some footage of today, which I'll get edited together soon :) Hope you both have a ball with the car. Kinda need to keep reminding ourselves of the price point!

MB models, www.rccarshop.co.uk are the UK distributors. Up to date stock levels on the website :) Anything else I've needed, I've just clicked the "notify" link and I have it really quickly!
In the UK, the distributor is MB Models. Most of the RS2.0 bits are the same as RS1.0. only really the chassis, top deck, shocks and towers are different. I'm sure Mike will update the website with specific RS2.0 bits when he can! www.rccarshop.co.uk/RS1-0
I just built the 1.0. Looks like a very nice TC for the money. Hope I can drive it well! LOL!! Nice comparison video.
For the money, it's unreal! Enjoy it! 😁
I was wondering how the drive belts hold up, have you had to replace them and are parts readily available for wear items like the belts, thx.

How are you getting on with the rs2.0? I have one tucked away for my youngest for christmas as he's outgrowing his tt02.

SAdly the music was too distracting so couldn't watch it
Thanks for the feedback. Appreciate you reaching out. Watching back, I very much see where you're coming from.
I'm having the same issue. Trying to listen to him speak over the music.
Unfortunately It's a broad mid-ulster accent.... Sometimes it's better to be drowned out 🙈
Feedback noted, thanks guys!

is the anti roll bar kit the same on the rs 2.0 as the rs 1.0??
Yeah, the bulkheads and wishbones are the same, so the RS1.0 ARB kit is a direct fit.
Its difficult to find Shops with spareparts in Europe.. do you think it takes some time ?

The new one looks to have a wider chassis??
Whatever one the slowest is, give it to Joey (when he gets out of jail) 😂
You're right. All the suspension pickups etc are identical though.
Ah, he's out of jail. He's just learned to close his browsers 😂😂
@@Gingapaint Ohhh was he looking at Xrays? 🤣
Ps: take my Frontie out a run 👀
Ah, I've a video to show you! 😂
@@Gingapaint 😱
My gosh man, PLEASE CUT THE MUSIC!! Talk about ANNOYING
Yeah, a few folk have said. I've acknowledged the editing mistake and learned from it.... Appreciate the feedback
