Thanks bro! This truck needs some work still, mainly the ZERO compression engine and the slipping forward one way in the trans. Well, at least knowing the problems is a good start, right.
The year was 2002 and I was working part time while studying. I knew I wanted to try a nitro after having a few tamiya electrics and I had no idea this truck was available. I purchased a hyper 7 pro but by the time I bought high torque servos, a starter box, RX pack, glow igniter, engine etc I paid almost double. I wish I had of purchased a truck like this instead. More fuel efficiency, two speed, reverse, and great looks!
hey bro! That would be a terrific 3d print to make. I looked into the reality of what it takes to make prints and it's tougher than it seems, the only good solution would be to get an expensive 3D scanner that could make the 3D file for me. Otherwise I'd need to learn some sickening software tools, lol.
hey Keith! YUP, this is the FRAT trans, it's for sure the most complicated reverse 2/speed system ever made for an RC. This one works, but needs to be adjusted some more.
@@nitrogang4416 What's up bro! I'm good and the t-bird is covered up and put away for the winter..How you doing? I wasn't sure if this was you or maybe someone posing as you lol
hey dude! I mean, in some ways yes! But overall this Is a totally different design, and far more complicated. trans does not use a 3rd channel for reverse and its got a huge 1/5 steering servo. Thanks for watching bro.
Making Nitro Great again one at a time!
How did I miss this! Awesome truck and awesome video!
Hey bro! Beats me, lol! Anyways NitroGang 4 life!! More vids on this channel soon too.
Love it 🔥

Time to 3d print a replacement e starter wiring mount and a new 3 servo radio box to fix the FRAT.🤔

Yes a 3D scanner is required otherwise you need to be a 3D modeller. But overall easier to have someone with the part just scan it for you
Wow I never knew this existed, crazy reverse system.

DOPE! TWO SPEED BABY!
hey bro! whats going on!! Hope you're well. Im trying to build this channel and diversify. More great RC vids soon. How's the thunderbird?
@@nitrogang4416 What's up bro! I'm good and the t-bird is covered up and put away for the winter..How you doing? I wasn't sure if this was you or maybe someone posing as you lol
I love nitro’s and I love building tamiya’s I wanna try and get my hands on one
Can you do a video on the tamiya tnx 3.0 ?
Hey my friend! I'f I'm lucky enough to get one of those model I will be super happy to. Unfortunately I have never come across one so far.
@nitrogang4416 I hope you get a chance to try a tnx 3.0 😊. It's like a race Terra crusher .
Last
When you're LAST with the nitroGang, you're always first!
Trying to grow this channel bro, need to meet many more milestones to make this channel Great!
