LOL. I cant even find one to buy.

Beans! No Beans! Too much Beans! Great run there. what a rig. Nice edit! Cheers!

Wow amazing you can actually find your parts in the tracks! Thanks for sharing your BBX videos! Thumbs up!

Thats an awsome track for the BBX, loved the bloopers at the end man. Made me laugh 😂

I am in North Dakota and am assembling my own BBX. Love the looks of yours. Also, the factory shocks included seem super smooth!

Very nice! Looks like you had fun out there.👍😊

Love that beautiful bean footage

Looks like you had fun Buddy .And some exercise . Ha . It handles and looks really nice . 👍🏼🤠

Hi there Rex, after those small teething issues, the BBX started to rip around well, sorry it was a noisy though. That’s the thing with ‘kidney beans’ they can catch you out here and there 😂😂😂😊😊nice running. Best wishes to you and the family 😊😊

Wow! Love it Rex. Give it more wheel speed to compensate for the lack of traction. When in doubt, go flat out.

Nice you got out on the track with it! Being 2wd with the narrow rear tires it is gonna be a slippering ride! From up top the track looks really nice and smooth but the up close showed it was a bit rough in spots from the rains so that wasn't in your favor either! It still looked like a good way to spend an afternoon out there learning things!

I want to see it run with some better tires, great job running it.

very cool buggy 👍 like 2wd on the track

Great video. That looks like a fun track. You need a volunteer marshal.

Awesome run Dude!!!! I do like the looks of the kit tires, maybe Tamiya will come out with (a) different compound(s), What tires fit the wheel? You sure did give it the beans.... Great Video Rex!!!!!!

Great job! I found lots of traction in a skate park.....can't drive the dang thing straight in the dirt.

Too much power/wheel speed, im going to go down in pinion, or go more turn motor

I get the impression this car is not ready for prime time

you got some goood eyes to find those tiny parts haha. nice...

Good run. It looks like you need a larger pinion.

beans!!!

You sure it's not the slipper clutch or the Ball diff.

What options are out for better tires? Mine is still on backorder with Tower.

@rexrcs

11 ай бұрын

Depends on your surface, loose stuff calls for Soft compound with small pins, high grip surface, harder compounds to prevent traction roll or grip flip, also depends on your driving, some run an uneven staggered setup. You’ll feel it. Hope you get yours soon

I am still waiting for mine to show up. The rear tires look like short course tires. Is that right?

@rexrcs

11 ай бұрын

They look similar to general sc race tires yes. I hope yours comes soon

Did the changes you made to the rear dampers stop the drive shafts from popping out? Would you still recommend the BBX, even with it's issues?

@rexrcs

11 ай бұрын

The changes to the rear shock did not prevent it from popping out, but does help. You could add one more oring but you wont get full compression anymore from an individual side during sway. Im going to tear apart the gearbox again to find what this issue is, as it stands, my only issue is this ticking gearbox, pretty sure im the only one though so thats not a common issue it seems. The buggy is amazing in strength and looks, i smashed a tree and a concrete curb head on and nothing broke, in terms of driving, you could make any buggy drive almost any way you want, for me, its about the chassis design, i dont love working on it because i have to open so much to get inside, but its a very nice option compared to the typical tub chassis delta wing shaped buggies available today, every other buggy is meant for tracks, this one sacrificed some track design for scale model looks, i like it very much so far. Is it worth it? Depends what it costs in your area and of its worth it to YOU as an individual

What was the slipping issue from the last run?

@rexrcs

11 ай бұрын

It was a loose diff from breaking in, it has not let up since and Ive done a handful of packs, lots of full throttle asphalt bashing also. Tonight i brought it out in a high traction situation and i noticed the slipper slipping on hard throttle, maybe I might tighten it up a touch more

What waterproof brushless motor combo would you get? I’ve gotta hotshot II and looking go faster

@rexrcs

Ive seen a lot of people run between 3500/4000kv on youtube and its ridiculously quick, most of them flip at those speeds when trying to turn as the suspension lends itself to lots of body roll. Id try a 13.5 turn myself, try this one- amzn.to/3rnFznv And you will need a sensor cable- amzn.to/46kEnA4 You can also increase the pinion gear size for more top speed If you use my links you will be supporting the channel, thanks

Great Video! Which one is overall better: the bbx or the dt-02?

ooo....dt-02 is easier to work on, bbx is much more unique...thats a tough one...

Instead of beans you should have got burgers that they sell there.

This is a great buggy, ive had quite a few crashes and its unscathed, head on into a concrete curb , it just bounced off… head on into a tree and it flew and popped a driveshaft but i just popped that sucker back in and voila. Its not all sunshine and rainbows but I will save that for a video in the future “things i hate about my xyz”
