I really hope a lot of novices seek this video. I see to many people bashing rovan saying “there junk” and they are complete beginners. These are basically power sports equipment and should be treated in that way. I can’t wait to get a tmr motor for mine.
I hope so too my brother share the video all you want I’m here to help new people getting into the 5th Scale hobby and I do it on a budget. You’re gonna love that TMR power brother!!!
top notch advice on the EPA setting for the throttle servo, those servos are super strong and will bend the throttle linkage easily, along with cause the throttle arm on the carb to take huge forces and eventually cause damage in the slide mechanism itself.
nothing like a new ROVAN right?? Honestly I think a lot of the checking each bolt and stuff like that is just storytelling form the early days of the LOSI brand, it's highly possible the guys who say you gotta take it apart and put it back together are just thinking of poorly assembled early LOSI products. Honestly I have never checked any screws on any Rovan, and they have all been perfect.
Nothing like a Rovan brother!!! I don’t think I’m going to be taking apart the car I’m just gonna go over all the fasteners and make sure they have Loctite on them especially the very important ones that seem to always have issues. I usually rip them out of the box throw gas in them and start driving them LOL 😝
@@eastsiderc The one thing I absolutely must do is pull the trans out and make sure it’s all good I’ve already went over all the fasteners with Loctite that need it.
Thanks brother!!! New car smell is one of the best smells in the world to me my man!!! It will be nice to see how this 30.5 ripps i’ve had a 29 and a 36 but I’ve never had a 30.5.
Hang on u want rear tow in no? Increases rear end traction and stability, especially 2wd cars or did I not see/hear that correctly? Love the videos man, new subscriber here, and if the nitro gang is watching, IM WATCHIN! 😎
Thanks my brother 👍🏼💪🏼I’ve ran both and I find that I prefer no toe in. I like my machines to roll as freely as possible. All my Taylor RC rear hub carriers are 0 toe. You will also find over time the hole will waller out the pin slides through with toe in or out.
What’s up bro, I like your channel. I just purchased a Rovan baja 5B 30.5cc buggy and I'm trying to upgrade the pinion-gear and spur gear for more speed any suggestions?
Thanks bro👍🏼 yeah they come with 17/57 gears from the factory you could try 18/56 gears or if you don’t want to go that route get some larger diameter tires.
I like the power pipe myself. The rpm pipe only gets about 3-400 rpm more but it seems it robs a third of the torque. In that case I will keep the torque because that rpm loss can be made up with gears ⚙️ as far as speed goes.
Hey man you stole my RC channel name haha! I've been compiling some videos to start posting and I was gonna name it Meyers 2 stroke stuffin! Is that too close to your name? Hey maybe we're cousins, u know Joey down by the creek? lolol 2 strokes do run in the family 👍🏼
WHEN YOU EXPLAIN ITEMS ON YOUR CAR AND THEN SAY DO SEE WHAT I MEAN HOW BOUT USING YOUR FINGER OR A POINTER TO SHOW WHAT THE HELL YOU’re TALKING ABOUT CAUSE THIS ALL NEW TO ME AND KNOW ONE I KNOW KNOWS WHAT THE HELL YOU’re TALKING ABOUT UNLESS YOU POINT IT OUT🤦🏻🤦🏻♀️🤷🏿♂️🤷🏿
I agree. This video could have been aimed at a beginner who just bought their first Rovan but too many times I was thinking “geez I wonder what he is talking about”. I’m sure he is correct but he just didn’t explain anything very well. Except for opening the box. He made sure to spend the first 5 mins opening the box so you didn’t miss any details!

@@Meyers2strokeRcgarage once I pay off my XLT 450 I’ll be making a call to Allen!
Whoahhh!!! Yes!! Another one! Watching right now brother. Rovan 4 ever!!
I hope you enjoy it my brother!!!

Thanks my brother!!! Yes what it does is it wares out the bushings on the throttle shaft in the carburetor. So important to set that stuff.

SICKENING BROTHA!
Congrats on the new ride man love the color scheme!
Thanks my brother!!! My 2001 F150 lightning is red and black lol 😂
Great video bro. I just recently got a new Baja and dealt with some similar stuff. Good pointer for the rear toe. I had to adjust that as well.
Thanks brother!!! Gotta have it rolling straight.
When u got mine I got extra sets with different toe positions, but unsure what and how to select the bests ones for my set up
Nothing like brand new baja nice brother Ben
Thanks brother!!! I love the smell of a new RC car man!!! It’s almost as good as a new car LOL 😝 thanks man !!!
Stay safe brother Ben
@@amirnewson1905 Always my brother!!!
That's exactly what I got with the 30.5 cc motor. I ordered the green one and got that color, LOL.
Heck yeah bro 😎 you will love it 👍🏼
@@Meyers2strokeRcgarage loving it. Bought the symmetrical steering kit and some wheels tires.
@@Victic005 awesome bro 😎 already got some upgrades for it right on bro 👍🏼💪🏼
Hey Ben you gotta like the new car smell😳👍👍 good lookin car man looking forward to seeing it rip💥💥😎

Greetings! She is looking sweet!
Rear end needs 1 or 2 degrees tow in, so as to run straight under acceleration.
No for that issue I like to use heavier differential fluid. I have a video on that as well.
Nice unboxing good stuff
Great video... Where can I buy one?
Is my dream
Super like 👍
Thanks brother!!!
Awesome! Can’t wait to see some content! I subscribed
Thanks for the sub brother!!! There are so many things coming to the channel it’s going to be awesome 😎
I swear I jus ordered one !!! It’ll be here on the 5th of April ... I’m nervous 😬 waiting on it 🏎
Man I get anxious as crap 💩 when I’m waiting on one ☝️ lol 😝
looks awesome congrats
Visit my channel I have a video of it ripping around
Great video... Where can I buy one?
I got mine from Rovan RC or Fearless RC

@@Meyers2strokeRcgarage one more question when charging the transmitter it was blinking then it stopped. Does that mean it don’t charging?
Great question I don’t have a rechargeable battery in my transmitter so I wouldn’t know how to tell 👍🏼
On the website it says to check the oil in the shocks and diff did you do that or will it be OK? Thinking of getting one
Yes I ended up completely going through the whole thing 👍🏼 it was the first one I did that with. The 3 before I just unboxed and ran
@@Meyers2strokeRcgarage
Cheers man new to this is it straightforward ok check the shocks and diff for oil as it recommends it?
Are you still mixing at 50:1? If so will the VP 50:1 they sale at tractor supply work. Its ethanol free and 94 octane.
I run 100to 1 right now. I don’t think I would buy fuel premixed because you don’t know what oil they use.
What do you prefer more the power pipe or rpm
I like the power pipe myself. The rpm pipe only gets about 3-400 rpm more but it seems it robs a third of the torque. In that case I will keep the torque because that rpm loss can be made up with gears ⚙️ as far as speed goes.
@@Meyers2strokeRcgarage thak you bro i appreciate it
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I was breaking mine in brand new and it just stopped on me any help ?
Does it have spark is it getting fuel I need more information bro 👍🏼
👍🏻
Thanks Gary!!!
👍👍
