Great to see a video from you mate!!! Those are some nice "Twins" but I seen better, LOL. Keep going at Rob... As I tell my self.. Keep up the good work man.... Hope you had a great Holiday and lets hope 2025 will be a great year for You, the family & friends!!!

Great looking things! Great fun and a beautiful day! No rain!😁 Great stuff again you guys 😉👍

Cool video Rob, they look great blasting around in sand 👍 looks like a lot of fun 😊 wasn't expecting them to be getting big air.. for some reason I thought it was more of a crawler platform

That was a really nice video Rob

Looks like you both had a fun day out there. Thamks for sharing Rob.

I just had a quick question do you know if the Avante tires are the same tire that goes on the rear of the super hot shot? They look similar I was just curious.

I am so glad I found this video. Thanks for making it! I am a beginner and thought the Plasma Edge will be a really easy build. I have found it to be quite challenging (I am not a technical person or good at making things).

A 550 brushed motor fits fine ive yet to test a steel 18 or 20 pinion as mines fresh built. At the moment i have a redcat????? 550 motor and esc both work and fit perfectly.

Finish your curry,take the lid and cut it out using the rear window as a guide and plus 10mm all around. Couple slots for the roll bars and cover with some black vinyl. Slot in and bit red insulation tape to hold and the rear window is sorted.

Peter Smith .....Greta Thunbergs number one enemy! 😅 Legend has it that we loose a whole rain forest every year just in the wrapping paper of all the kits he gifts to the rc KZbin community!!😅 What a legend!!! 🙏 What a stunning kit Rob,enjoy!😊 👍 👍

Thank you so much rob , I am not cleverest bunny in the word but thought it sod it I have always wanted to but and build and RC car and I chose the plasma edge 2 , but after looking at the intructions (as good as they are) My noggin still just farted at me, so off to youtube I go and you I finds , just finished up on the main parts of chassis and now onto the radio/electrics. just need to work out now if I should use just tamiya lubes etc or if theres cheaper versions, but thank you for simple easy to follow videos for the dumb of mind.

Hi mate what did you paint the headlights with? they look really cool! I’ve just built my xv01 and want to do the same to mine

Well your gonna be busy this year 😁

omg Rob you really have work for the next years 😂😮

Fantastic job on those first two restorations, Rob! Those cars look like brand new and they passed Mark's drop test! It's a cool bunch of stuff, very nice of Alan to send it to you, with some good Scottish dust, of course!

Wow, that's a lot of stuff in there 😮 Big part of 2025 sorted 😅 Happy New Year 2025, Rob 🎉🎆🍾

It's weird, even though I packed the box I was still excited to see what you were going to pull out next.! 😉😂😁 As you were opening the little boxes I was like "Nice one", "sweet".! 😁😁😁 I can't tell you how happy it made me feel seeing you guys opening the parcel, you couldn't wipe the smile off my face right now.!! 👍 👍 I'm glad you seemed to like the metal caged rock buggy Mcthingy, I had all kinds of cool images in my head when I started building it, I even got a thin alloy sheet to make body panels with (let me know if you want it) but one thing led to another, I kept getting distracted, I ended up using the axles, shocks & driveshafts on a different build then it ended up stuffed in the loft for about 5 years.! As soon as I found it again along with the Hobao DC1 I knew I had to send it down to you guys.!!👍 👍 The FTX Stinger is a fantastic car, it slides around really well & it was very quick out the box with it's Hobbywing 10BL60 ESC & 3652, 4000kv? Motor.! I GPS'd it at 56 ish MPH.!! I've actually replaced it with the new FTX EVO30 brushed version that I've fitted the Stingers brushless system to.! 😉 Hopefully that light funtion module will still work with a different reciever, the stock one's a DumboRC. I can't say for certain if all of those brushed ESCs are working, they'll need to be tested. The brushless Rlaarlo ESC works & it's decently powerful, but the brakes sometimes don't release after you've applied them 100%, you have to blip the throttle to release them. It probably just needs to be calibrated but the manual didn't say how & I cant find anything online. Also nothing about programming it.!! I used to turn the brakes down on my FS-GT5 transmitter. It was taken from a Rlaarlo AK-787 alloy version.! Those part worn SC tyres are from a Hobao Hyper 10SC & in my opinion they really should go back onto that truck.... But you guys don't seem to have one.!? Well...that's not right.!! Something should definitely be done about that.! 😉 😉 Any hoo.. I have a new box & I'll start filling it soon.😉😉 HAPPY NEW YEAR GUYS & THE VERY BEST WISHES FROM SCOTLAND 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 🙏 ❤️ 📻 🕹️ 🔋 🚗 🚖 🚕 🚔 🚚 🚙 🚘 🚓 🚒 🚑 🚐 🚎 🚤 🚁 🛩️ 👍 👍 👍 ALL THE BEST FOR 2025.!!

WOW.... So much stuff.... I'd be lost with that haul, all 3 boxes and then some.... Happy New Year Rob!!!!!

Cool stuff! Happy, Healthy new year Rob & Mark 🎉😉👍🍻

Oh wow!! Loads more tinkering goodness arrived! That box was slam packed with all kinds of stuff! You guys are going to have a great time getting all that sorted and back into fighting shape!! Happy new year to you all!

McMc'ing McAwesome mate! Happy New Year!!! 🎉🍻😎👍

oh my my friend i was looking at the tt01e racing trucks an came across your video an i watched it an enjoyed watching you have fun at 27 mph an laughing the whole time with your friend so i am going to hang out an watch more to see what you get into thank you for sharing your videos with me an putting a smile on my face thank you i got hurt about 5 years ago an i am in wheel chair now setting her so really thanks

Very nice build- tutorial!! I still have a question: what are about the two holes at the gear-housing that you mentioned in the first part wich you didn't put screws in? Can't find that point in the manual and now at your finish you even left this two holes without screws. I think at lest one of the screws should be mounted at the right side. What do you think? Did Tamiya forget about them?

I had this same soldering iron a few years ago. For it's price it's an excellent soldering iron and I don't care what anybody says. I am very proficient at tin soldering and this thing does the job. The failing point for these is the insertion of the power cord into the pcb so please make sure to do your preventive fixes if you buy one. For a homeowner it's great

What a nice collection to get hold of. The Boomerang will be salvageable with re-re parts but it depends on the cost as to whether it is worth it. You would definitely be able to sell it on

Looks like it was run over by the same car that squashed Mark's MF-01x 🤣 Great cars that both hold legendary status in the RC world and good to see them being saved. I finally got a Hotshot for Christmas, 38yrs after buying one second hand off my mate and wanting one ever since. Cant wait to get it built up and give it a run out

Great present and a classic bodyshell. Look forward to the build 👌

Merry Christmas, Rob, Mark and Peter! Always good fun to watch a good unwrapping video, and of course more video content to look forward to, mate!

What a nice chap that Peter CW is 🎅🎄
