  • Tamiya absolutely knocked the ball out of the park with this kit. I'm absolutely in love with it!
    We'll go over my build, the paints I used, some design elements that new buyers should know of, and talk about some customization options.
    For my build, I used the Yeah Racing gear diff. I bought mine here:

    Your video popped up in my feed and I have to say it's really well done. Lots of RC you tube videos try to be too flashy and going for that IN YOUR FACE WILD sound and aesthetic which I find overdone and adds nothing to the content. But I really needed to leave a comment based purely on your outro at 7:14 "Be excellent to each other" and you also had the pose nailed. I loved it, and I wish you all the success in the world ! Be excellent my brother !

      Thanks for the awesome feedback, my man! I really appreciate it. Comments like this really motivate me to make more content. It's nice knowing there's viewers out there that appreciate the "not so crazy, in-your-face" yelling approach that seems so common on YT these days. I like to keep my energy and positivity levels high, but not that high... lol!
      And as you know, Bill and Ted are guiding force behind this channel, haha. Their music and RC shall unite the world and bring harmony.
      Stay Excellent, dude! 🎸 🎶 🎵

    Your version of the BBX looks amazing. This may be my favorite custom look for it. I just bought this kit. This is my first build and I'm currently gathering supplies. What brand of quality screwdrivers would you recommend?
    I know all about car tools but this is a new area for me. There are so many brands out there; I don't know what's good and what's not.

    • @poorboysrc
      @poorboysrc  9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thanks for the wicked comment! The BBX was the best thing to come out of the Tamiya factory in 2023. You're gonna love it!!!
      As for a good tool kit, my go-to is the Tamiya kit. Here's a link: Tamiya 300074085 RC Tool Kit 8 Pieces a.co/d/7yodoyS
      It covers all your metrics driver needs, plus the screwdrivers are genuine JIS, not Phillips, so you'll have an easier time with Tamiya screws.
      Have fun with your build! If you need any more guidance along the way, just shoot me an email @ poorboysrc78@gmail.com -- I'm always happy to help out my subscribers! 👊🏼🍻

    Great build Fil! 👌
    Love what you done with the body, especially the carbon effect!
    Colour scheme suits it nice, although it may end up 'camouflaged' in the sand if you do take it to the beach.... don't loose it mate! 🤣
    Tamiya gets a big thumbs up for this one, both in styling and engineering.... and even includes bearings!
    Loving the retro looks for sure, this buggy excites me, and has me very interested.
    I lacked enthusiasm for the TD2 and TD4, both had serious flaws, not to mention their sabotage of the Avante and Astute branding (I'm a loyal vintage fan!)
    The BBX shows Tamiya very much going in the right direction!
    Looking forward to the run video matey.
