    Great buggy. The design's looking so awesome. Red and blaxk's a great combination. The overheating is the biggest issue with this car. But who should wonder when the motor is stuffed into the gear box on this car.

    Hi there fellas, another great video. The DT-03 is very good value for money and with your additional upgrades, looks to perform very well indeed. I too am of the age, remembering those cigarettes manufacturers liveries on F1 vehicles, large amounts of money between teams and sponsors. Our world and what is considered as acceptable and not acceptable is becoming ever increasingly…..’Nanni’ state shall we say? 😊😊best wishes 😊

    Great looking build and they are great running buggies! I do agree there were some great liveries back in the days from smokes and alcohol! They made some great looking race cars back then. We have some good ones today but not quite as iconic except for maybe Rredbull and Monster! I hope you figure out the overheating issue and can get it out on some dirt! Take care guys!

    The DT03 gearbox is a good design, but it only allows the use of two pinion gears; 17 or 19 tooth gears. Ìs there a way to allow the use of other gears? Any help would be appreciated.

    Nice, why’d you choose aluminum vs carbon on the shock towers?

    • @RCsoandso
      @RCsoandso  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Mainly because they were more readily available, and it will be thrown around, so I I think aluminium will be more hard wearing than carbon fibre, but that could be for a future project 🤔👍

    Great build lads!
    LOVE the JPS livery, it was probably my favourite paint scheme back in the eighties...... but boy did those JPS fags taste awful! 🤣
    When you split them open there was bits of drift wood and garden bark in there, nasty.
    The overheating is annoying to say the least, I've never had that with any of my superstock motors.... but I generally use TBLE-02S ESC'S, seem to be a nice match!

    • @RCsoandso
      @RCsoandso  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I must say that JPS needed to advertise as no one really smoked them, I think that sometimes the cheaper brands were what they swept of the floor! I travel to say I agree with ESC as I have the TBLE02 in my terra Scorcher and it’s never let me down! 👍

    Currently having a similar overheating problem with the dt-02 which has the same gearbox, with only a moderate 15 turn brushed. Why Tamiya decided to surround the motor with so much plastic is anyone's guess. Not enough room for a clip on heat sink either. Oh well, at least the batteries last a bit longer 🤔

    Why did they cover up the motor with plastic is the only problem i have with this car? Reminds me of my other hobby PC gaming when certain companys forget about airflow/cooling in the cases and then sell us crazy hot processors and graphics cards to put in a solid glass case with no airflow. Yeah it looks nice but its thermal throttling like a mofo! Make a metal gearbox case Tamiya so it can dissipate the heat from the motor and increase the TDP! And why does Tamiya give us an ESC that overheats with Tamiyas own motors? Now have 4 Tamiya ESCs all have been replaced with the hobbywing 1060 because it just works better and dont overheat/shutdown and has the same size heatsink on it than the Tamiya ones! But rant over nice paintwork dude she looks mint.

    • @RCsoandso
      @RCsoandso  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Yes I have to agree some PC towers now are just for show with no practicality to them, just filled with twinkly lights. Exposed motors are good so you get a decent airflow, which I think they need 👍
