    I do like these little trucks, they look fantastic blasting around in the sand and grass. Pity about the tiny stone, but I suppose it is inevitable at some point. I had a similar problem with my Honda Civic FF-03, ruined the spur and pinion! A very good weekend to you my friend! :)

    • @NordicRC
      @NordicRC  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yeah, I love making videos with these. Usually I have a blast throwing them around (having fun and no possibilities for a Tamiya to be ruined). Yeah. Heard others have the same problem. Uhh, usually Tamiya is very good dealing the gear boxes? Apart from sand and dirt getting in I’ve never had a Tamiya with a stone inside. Well, luckily a spur/pinion is always an easy fix - unless it’s one of those crazy designs like a DF-02. Hope it was easy for you. Have a great weekend, Mark, my good friend.

    • @MarkBryanRC
      @MarkBryanRC 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@NordicRC Thanks mate - it was an easy fix - the motor is mounted at the front just like the XV01, and the dust cover is a very loose fit against the metal motor plate, bad design for a higher level Tamiya kit. It's supposed to be easy to remove for quick gearing changes. I should have taped it up like I advised others to do in the build video!!! Also broke the servo with gravel jamming the steering mechanism , you'll see it in the next speed run video! Cheers, pal. :)

    • @NordicRC
      @NordicRC  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    • @NordicRC
      @NordicRC  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Gideon. I think it’s pure coincidence. A matter of production batches, where the color of the body doesn’t really matter. I’ve also learned that some of the B-versions come with metal gears, and some not. So I think it’s safe to say that one doesn’t know what one gets when buying these 😅

    • @NordicRC
      @NordicRC  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi! No, not with these. But the A-version has a lower voltage battery and a throttle EPA, so you can turn down the top speed. You can check out the A959-A in my channel. An A979-A is also available.
