I messed up the editing and repeat a segment at the end. 🤦🏻♂️
Driving and filming done by me, gopro hero 5 and iphone 10
XV-02 Initial thoughts/point of inertia video- • I CANT BELIEVE THEY DI...
XV-01 on dirt- • IS XV-01 FUN?
XV-02 build recap and thoughts video- • I WOULDN’T DO THAT AGAIN
XV-02 Time lapsed build video- • TIME LAPSE WITH SUBTITLES
I’ve not owned an xv-01, but from what I can tell…. It’s got characteristics that seem to not be paralleled! I may have to experience one for myself to understand! Maybe it’s the forward slung motor or the gyro forces from the belt system! You may have sold me 😂
It's so smooth! The retro Focus body looks nice too!
soooooooo smooth, it completes its turning steps much quicker than the xv-01, yes the body is special to me because its one of the cars from gran turismo 2 i use to run
And now Tamiya is as good as a 1/16 HBX 4wd Truggy. Well done, Tamiya!
Nice demonstration Rex!👍😊
thank you, yours also, the javelin didnt seemt hat much faster than the saint dragon on first lap but the lap times told me different, still a close race though at 9.8 and 9.87 i think it was?
@@rexrcs yessir!
Ah the ol dirt lot. With such classic hits like XV-01, Rally Beetle, Holiday Buggy, Rough Rider, and many more!
hahaha, youve been there for all of them! what do i bring there next time? what would you like to see sir?
@@rexrcs The farm tractor. Or the lunch box. Something bouncy!
@@RFVCXR200R something bouncy it is!
I want one. Just broke my first suspension mount on my XV01. It’s like a coming of age. Great work on the make shift track. I get how you drive for fun without getting footage (can be a hassle, and less pressure), then you nail a corner and wish you were filming. Gotta go wrench, looking forward to the comparisons!
omg i just watched your chevelle video gaining knowledge, MORE PLEASE!!! nice driving!
Hi Rex, it was great watching you burn your own track into the gravel! The new car show looked 2 handle neutrally and you soon got the measure of it on that surface. Great to hear how much you enjoyed it and your thoughts after the run. Good to know that the XV01 is not out of the running! Looking forward to more of this rally fun, dude! 🙂👊👍
Thank you Mark! I know you like rally!! Im going to try and do a comparison, xv vs. xv with tt02 as a pace car
@@rexrcs You know me Rex! That comparison sounds cool 😎 👌
I raced the xv01 against some tt02 and some other shaft driven car, on the carpet is very hard to compete with those but the sound, it is almost inpercievable and the smoothness is amazing, on brushed motor drive so good at low rpm...
Absolutely sold on it! However there is so much technical know how to driving properly (so it does what you want) I have to join you in the XV-02 ranks! Beauty vid and build dude! cheers👍👍👍
you bring up a great point, my videos show only the car driving and not all of the constant inputs from my fingers to the radio controller....youre giving me ideas...cheers and hope you can feel the difference in these one day, they are in a different and far away leage compared to typical TT chassis and even the mf-01x
Great to hear your thoughts on the newer XV02 vs 01. Very informative. I do agree belt drive cars are generally smoother than shaft driven.. but it does require more maintenance. I hope I get t try the 01 someday.
Thanks, I appreciate your thoughts and feedback, I'll try and put together a direct comparison video soon, cheers! hope to see your next upload soon
@@rexrcs that’d be awesome!👍🙌
Nice, just nice Rex. Tamiya did a great job with this car. Even with the small stff getting under the cover I'm fine. So I leaned back and enjoyed yor video👍.
Asphalt? I'll watch
Thank you, asphalt coming soon!
Ok, now I want to see a 01 vs 02 race on that dirt 🤘
Coming soon I hope, I just took the XV-02 to the parking lot and drew up a chalk track
Try. Going with thicker diff oils front and rear and you will find it gives you more Drive and stable rotation.
excellent, thank you
😎👍🏽
hakim!
Yeah! It’s cool running
We can't wait to own one too!
i cant wait to watch you drive one on your track!
Hi there Rex, a great XV-02 series of videos. It certainly looks like Tamiya have made some improvements from the XV-01. Looks great out on the gravel / loose surface, seems to be very forgiving. Take care and best wishes to you and the family 😁😉😊
thank you again John, yes the xv-01 has many general design improvements over the original xv-01, a very noticeable change is the easier access to everything for maintenance . it turns so well on the loose surface, most cars understeer but this one was much more positive when rotating around corners
Smooth like buttered glass Rex!!!! Awesome vid man!!!! Now a back to run?
Oh yeah!
Mến chào bạn cảm ơn bạn đã chia sẻ đoạn video thật là tuyệt vời chúc bạn ngày mới nhiều niềm vui nhiều sức khỏe và gặp nhiều may mắn
Very nice controlled drifting due to the mid balance of the car. Looks like fun! Now I'm going to have to dig out my old ofna mid motor 1/10 and make it brushless!!
Ofna BD10 mid motor?!?!? 😍
sweet BRZ
Yo Rex that’s so awesome you got one looking forward to my own soon. Looks like it could be a perfect car
it really feels special, I cant wait to try it on parking lot also, I think it will be amazing, cant wait to see yours also
Hi Rex, firstly I’d like to say what a great channel you have. You explain about set up of these cars, but I understand what you’re saying a lot of others are expecting us to know what they’re talking about, you don’t you dumb it down and explain it so everyone understands.
Secondly on the XV-02pro do you get the shocks you used on your build or are they a hop up 🤔
And third and last if you where to hop these chassis up what would you use 🤔🤔
Thanks again for a wonderful channel 🙏😍👍 it’s so nice to see youngsters like yourself as exited about this hobby as… me a sixty year young man who’s never grown up 😂😂😂
Hi Kenneth, Thank so much for the kind compliment. The shocks I used on the xv-02 pro, came with the kit, alone these "TRF" racing shocks are worth approx $100 cdn. Currently I think the car could benefit from both a center differential as well as a front sway bar. thank you again for taking the time to stop and chat and let me know some feedback. it really helps when viewers ask questions, it helps me know what to answer in future videos. NEVER TOO OLD!! Do you play or build rc yourself?
@@rexrcs build, play, repair 😂😂😂 oh and restore old classics. I don’t have much but I treasure what I have. I love getting old beat up not working and restoring them to runners not shelf queens. I run all mine. I have an old Mini Cooper on an M01 chassis, TL01 and a B, two TT02B’s both neo scorcher’s, DT01 fighter buggy/mad bull and a SandScorcher 😍😍😍 love that thing. I’d like to get a good rally car and think that XV02pro would suite my kind of driving but I do also like how the XV01 drives tail out 😳😂😎 I’d love either an Avanti or a TopForce to see if the hype is all it’s cracked up to be and I’d love a Kyosho optima turbo rere they are stunning looking buggy’s and very tough and well engineered. I can dream I suppose 😂😂😂 but I’m happy tinkering with the ones I have.
Wishing you every success with your channel Rex. Keep up the great work you do for us and happy RC’ing to you 🙏😄😍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Very nice.. Slides very well and pulls out of the turn..Easy fix with body..I want to build one..I dont have a rally car yet lol
thanks, it really is nice. slides very stable and your right, straighten the wheel and add throttle and it pulls out nicely. i didnt know you could fix body holes how do you fix body holes, now my focus has two sets of body holes on the hood, i'd love to cover one up, sadly I cant use any of my other rally bodies because i dont want extra holes in the hood. you dont have a rally car? PHILTHY you have so many rc's though! you need one !! cheers
Hi Rex I’ve not built the xx-02 yet am waiting on lancia body
I’ve got the xv01 as well but hardly used it I got the mo8 chassis for escort mi2 shell am yet to try this also but the xv02 looks sweet 👍
Hopefully you get your body soon, it’s a treat to drive! I took it on the asphalt track again today to get a bit more footage for the next video
Great video, looks like the car handled pretty good
Hey Tank! thanks and yes it handles amazing, turns in very positively and stabilizes itself quickly
Looks like fun!!! I am gonna have to get one!
its truly a different feeling car from the others
Nice footage . It runs and looks perfect , except for those crappy Deans connectors , Bahahahah, JK man , to each is own.
I've changed most of my stuff to XT 60 or 30s , a few 90s , away from the Traxxas connectors i used for years , never really liked them and the were to big for the smaller scale stuff also .
This chassis layout looks like it would be excellent for a drift car set up too . I still have the HPI E-10 Monster Energy Mustang . Runs perfect but , I'm going to kill it if I run it hard . I've been looking at one of the Sakura rear wheel drive chassis for a better more permanent/dedicated drifter , but I like 4WDs too . To many great choices , LOL .
Anyway , great job on the vid brother 👍🏼
thanks Philly! hahahaahah I love deans connectors, hashtagDEANS4LIFE lol. yes this chassis layout would be fun for awd drift as well I agree. Ive got an older sakura countersteer drift car but Id also like to own a rwd one day, Ive driven other peoples rwd drift cars and its ridiculously fun trying to control your angles and link corners smoothly but i cant justify the cost given next to no places to run them
@@rexrcs Sorry for the late reply , Yeah that's the thing isn't it . Having a place to drive or use it . I don't want to have to go anywhere special to drive anything .
I think just setting up one of my other 1/10 scales for drifting might be best ,
It's a very good run. The body is also cool. I also want to get it!!!!😀
I hope you get it soon, i love your rally videos
Cool video love my XV01 but I have been very interested in this one.
interesting, I may know the real difference between them till I actually drive one. nice vid!
no, you will not because its almost impossible to explain, let me try again-
it feels like the xv-02 starts the turn sooner, and finishes sooner, the xv-01 feels like it takes a second for the front to shift all that weight to start reacting, once it reacts it takes long to settle because the pivot point is at the front giving a larger pendulum effect on xv-01, whereas the xv-02 feels like a shorter pendulum, am i making sense? lol
Use your house key or car key to get that rock out.
Nice one man, thanks for sharing 👍🏽
Thanks for the visit
Seems to handle very well. Wich rally chassi do you prefer?
the xv-02, for reliability reasons, if the xv-01 didn't have several small quirks, I'd pick the xv-01 for its driving characteristic, if you're racing and want to win, I believe the xv-02 has overall better potential. my answer is dependent on reasonable motors and subject to change at any time
Great video Rex. It looks great and you can see how torn you are between the two. Maybe the question is how does it compare to the MF-01X and the TT-02? I think it was always going to be hard for it to be be better than the XV-01. Do you have any other rally chassis and if so how does it compare to those. Great content man 👍🏻🙌🏻
That’s a good question.
hi guys, honestly, the TT-01's, TT-02's (entry level models) are in a totally different league compared to these two XV chassis', I hope for you guys to be able to feel the difference one day, I feel like the factors of performance were not high on the design list for the TT-02 (not talking about the TYPE SR), nor was it for the mf-01x, I'll take the mf-01x out to the dirt lot soon, also with a tt-02 and both xv's and I'll get together a comparison video somehow. thank you guys, comments motivat me to do better
also I'll upload a video of the mf-01x with slick on parking lot soon, I did that about a week ago and got surprisingly better results than I anticipated
@@rexrcs Nice one Rex! I have a XV-02 ready to build but also I am collecting the parts for a TT02 conversion also. I am expecting the XV chassis to walk it to be honest. Great content on this chassis dude
Hey Rex, couldn’t agree with you more. My first ever RC was a XV01. I’ve never purchased a TT02 because I knew, by chance , that they weren’t in the same class. I’m a rally fan. Your videos are so cool and appeal to people who are interested in the hobby in its purest form. My reason for saying “good question” is because the MF01x is seriously underrated and a bit of fun. No sign of XV02 here in Aus yet. Anyway thanks for making these videos.
Nice dude
🙌
thankk you for that nice vdo , realy enjoy it !
Tamiya's best rally car.
The ol dirt lot, with such classic hits like xv-01
Very nice video.I would like to ask from where did you get the ford focus body
Maple Hobbies in BC canada
@@rexrcs Is it a tamiya body ?
What kind of speeds are you getting and what motor you running? Thanks
I havent clocked it but its not very fast, im using a 17.5 ssnsored brushless system, I drive in a small area so I cant use much speed
Best place to buy one of these kits?
Hello Enzo, thanks for stopping in!
I would recommend if you have a Hobby Shop local to you, if you can order with them, it will help your local hobby shop. Otherwise try your nearest online store
so what caused the dust cover to eat up so much sand and dirt?
Theres a small opening in the front of the dust cover where the steering linkage connects to the bellcrank. However in my experience, unless everything is sealed with grease or a gasket, you’ll find small dust particles always, and when you seal an rc that well, we usually run into heat problems, I honestly didnt expect the dust cover to work at all but in a few conditions it did better than expected and even worked excellent in some scenarios. However anywhere we have a dry dusty condition, it seems we cannot escape the debris
@@rexrcs okay i was just wondering since im currently building a xv-02 chassis so i can get to know how to avoid any potential issues (i want to keep as much wet dirt and stuff away from my electronics so i can do bashing on bad days too without having to brush everything off)
£330 in the UK, it had better be better.!!
😅 subject to your approval of course!
Has anyone had a problem with the front prop shaft coming out?
Many people on facebook have claimed to have that issue, i originally built the front shocks wrong but noticed it before running because the dogbones were loose at full extension, after reading the manual again I noticed i missed some limiting spacers and fixed it, they have not popped out yet, double check that you built them according to the manual, the rear and front shocks are built different
hi, is the differential front 40T and rear 39T?
39,39 sir
@@rexrcs Thank sir
