Hi Andy, same here fella, my favourite buggies usually have a sentimental connection that's hard to explain to a non-RC enthusiast! They just get under your skin. Strange, but something that doesn't happen with too many other brands. Anyway, your DT02 is sweet as! Love it! Goes like stink too. Nice to see the walk around of the chassis. And of course a massive congrats on the 3000 subs, well deserved mate! Take care!
Hello mate hope your well. I think a real
Full size car enthusiast might get what we mean by sentimental connection to certain cars. Yes I often find that out of all the cool
Cars I’ve owned it’s still Tamiya they gets under the skin most. Cheers for your support as always, glad you like the DT02 it was a labour of love. Take care my friend
Love it in the process of changing my desert gator into holiday buggy.
Any of the DT02s are awesome and you can make them Go really well, plus you can do loads of custom work to them. It’s a great platform to work on
Now this buggy is not messing around!! I woulda guessed it was an astute 😄
Thanks Andy!!!!
Cheers Wade much appreciated :) yeah I put a lot into this one , but it was built to race . It does have a bit of an astute vibe to it if you get the desert gator shell for it, it looks even more Astute like . Thanks for watching ;)
Wow, what an awesome looking buggy! I really like the DT-02, it's a great basic buggy and runs well. I actually started with a DT-03, but that had way too much understeer for my liking, so I got the parts and converted it to a DT-02. Once I'd done that. I flipped the front lower wishbones round to slightly increase the wheelbase to make it more stable, I also replaced the screw pins with hinge pins, replaced the screws with steel hex head screws, and I also fitted a turnbuckle brace to the front shock towers. I was also looking into bodging a better spur gear setup but never got round to it, and sadly I sold the buggy last year as I wasn't running it much and I needed the money, and I regret selling it now. Great video as always, keep up the good work!!
Cheers Barry , awesome budget buggy , they drive very well with a few tweaks , I’ve always loved the DT buggy’s especially the 02, like I said in the video this is the buggy that got me back into racing. Fingers crossed you may get another 02 in the future. Cheers for watching, take it easy :)
Happy to claim to be a member of the 3+ plus that enjoy your channel brother!
Congrats on 3000+ !!! Thanks for showing your DT-02 MS Andy!.. and what a beauty she is 😎.
Cheers Owen much appreciated :) thanks for your support snd watching the channel glad you like the buggy it’s one of my favourites
What a machine! My favorite car ever built and run was a Dyna-Storm, so I would love one of these one day. :)
Thank you :) Dyna storms are very cool I’ve had a couple in the past cracking buggy just a little fragile . Super cool though
Huge fan of the DT-02 chassis. 👍 It's by far my most driven buggy. Your race spec DT-02 MS looks superb. 😎 Unfortunately, as you say, getting third party hop ups for the DT-02 chassis is becoming more and more difficult.
Hello David I hope your doing well . They are a great fun buggy to drive , and you can make them go really well. Glad you like mine it was a labour of love. It’s a real shame a lot of the decent 3rd party upgrades are no longer available. Take care :)
Congratulations on your TH-cam milestone! Really enjoy your channel and hope it continues to grow! The DT-02MS looks really sharp. Thanks for letting us see it out for a run. 👍🏻
Thank you very much much appreciated. Thanks for all your support. Yeah I should of got the buggy running on the channel much sooner but it didn’t pan out that way, got there In the end though ;) take care
What a car Andy! Love it and I think it is a future classic Tamiya. Simple but very fun and easy to drive. Thanks for sharing pal
Cheers Craig, they are an awesome budget buggy. Pretty simple , a couple of inherent design floors but super cool and they go really well with a few tweaks. My pleasure and cheers for watching :)
Well done for getting 3k subs! What a great looking buggy, I'm sure it was a joy to race!
Cheers George, thanks for your support, glad you like it. I loved racing this , although it’s semi retired now 😂
It is a gorgeous buggy and it rips out there! You really have that one set up and what a great buggy and story to go with it! Congrats on the 3K as well, another milestone down and you deserve many more folks subscribing to learn from you and see all the great cars you get your hands on!!! Take care Andy and I love this buggy!!!
Hey Addam hope your well. This was (well in away still is) my pride and joy Tamiya buggy. It’s the one that means the most I think. Hopefully onwards and upwards and I guess what will be will be if people like what I’m doing I hope they will follow at sone point. Cheers again for your support and keep up with your awesome channel Addam :)
The buggy looks epic Andy. Even a basic DT-02 is great but you've taken it to another level. Belated 3k subs congrats 😁👍👍
Hi Pete, hope your well. Many thanks for the comment, glad you like the buggy I put a lot into this one. I almost forgot how much I like running it. Many thanks for your support, take care :)
Congrats on the 3k. I know how hard you work and it is well deserved. The dt02 ms is one of the best Tamiya modern day non TRF buggies. That was a mouth full. Lol I cannot wait to build mine.
Thanks Keith I really appreciate that. Thanks for the great comment it means a lot to be recognised that you put a lot in to something you love :) the DT02 is a great budget 2wd that was loosely based on 2wd competition buggys of the day. They go really well with a bit of work to them , it’s even beaten much better machinery on track. Realistically it will never be an out an out race car . They are tons of fun though enjoy yours when you build it ;) take care
This thing looks and handles like a champ !👍🏻😎
Thank you , it’s a wicked buggy and one I put lots of work into , glad you like it
Congratulations on the 3k pal.........I think i like it when the buggies look more race focused with the rear motor ....Have a good one 👍👍
Hi Bren :) hope your well. Much appreciated. I agree I love a buggy with a rear motor they look so much better than the modern cab forward
It's such a cool buggy, Andy! It took me a while to get a DT-02 and now I got it, I understand what you have been talking about! Especially with the Sand Viper body, it looks so cool, and in black even more so!
Congrats on the big 3000 milestone, you certainly earned it, always some great content you got!
Yeah, that BBX, I'm also not getting it. I am completely crazy about it, but I think I'll wait and see when the price drops a bit...
All the best, buddy!
Hey Mads hope your well? They are wicked buggy’s I hope your enjoying your
Dt02, do you run it often? Thanks for all your support over the last few years. I might have got myself a BBX after all , fingers crossed you get one as well. Meanwhile enjoy your RCing ;)
Great run Andy! I need to get building my Sand Viper!😬
Congratulations on 3k!🎉👍😊
Cheers Jeremy :) enjoy your build it’s a cracking buggy and you can make them run really well. Take care fella
Well done Andy on 3000+ Subs! Great achievement! Excellent vid that DT-02 MS looks a joy to drive really dialled in and looks real nice to look at too!
Shame about the BBX mate but yeah l can understand as the time most get them in the UK they will be old news! Awesome buggy though!
All the best buddy.
Hi James cheers on the 3k sorry the video was late out. Glad you like the dt02 it’s definitely my fav Tamiya 2wd even if it will never be a world beater. Well never say never on the BBX ;)
Love the DT-02. Such a great buggy and how cool to have an MS. Love the back story Andy and happy you have this for all the nostalgic reasons you explained. It looks fantastic 👍🏻
Thanks Damien much appreciated, I’ve been lucky enough to have a few MS’s olin the past but this was the one for me as I’ve invested so much in to it . Thanks for checking it out ;)
nice car broo
this is so cool
Cheers thanks for that much appreciated glad you like it
looks awsome
Thank you very much :)
Thats an awsome looking buggy, congrats on the 3K 👍 i think i would happly buy one of these if they started the one make cup again 😁
Cheers Richard much appreciated, the one make DT races where great fun to do as everyone had the same machinery there was some good racing. Lee Davies did a cracking job with that event. John Weston even did a buggython event with the dt02 chassis as well.
@@andyrobinsonrc2480 fingers crossed something comes up 🤞
Hope you will like the bbx more and race the bbx. And race the mb01 too.
We shall see what happens , I was pretty down beat with the pro-orders not arriving so I cancelled mine , we shall see what happens ;)
Andy❣️ mate wow! I got myself a sand viper with a few options but gonna get the rest you have 😊❤️ Message you a foto 😊
Enjoy your sand viper build it’s a very fun buggy , drives nicely snd you can make them
Run pretty well with a few upgrades and tweaks ;)
Hope you'll be getting your BBX soon. I forgot that you get the mb01 yet?
You never know what’s round the corner ;)
Do you use adjustable steering rods? Do you have a link to them to purchase? I want something heftier and might as well be adjustable
Who makes the 19 turn motor?
It’s a Team Checkpoint 19x1 brushed motor , no longer available
