That was excellent Phil. I love the fact that you actually ran it, and I mean RAN IT. I was grinning to myself imagining the mild heart attacks being had by all the Tamiya purists screaming "Shelf it you Barbarian" lol. Especially when you drove it over the rougher terrain. Even I had my fingers crossed that the front shock brackets didn't break. Although my sentiments were more financial than collectors paranoia hahaha. The other thing I was impressed with was how low you got with the stick tranny while running and filming the clips at the end. Great footage but I bet you looked hilarious. I request a static camera shot of you doing this next time mate lol. Big thumbs up my friend. Absolutely loved this 😄👍🏻👍🏻
@TomleyRC4 жыл бұрын
I can assure you it was hard work getting them shots haha.... glad you noticed , the static shots will be burnt and never published haha. "Shell it you Barbarian"... I can imagine some of the muttering going on! The little 380 Sport Motor and Li-ion certainly gave this a good boost of power! You'll be pleased to know I stripped the gearbox down, removed all the sand and dirt, added a bit of 'dry' oil and then put it back together ready for another day... Stay safe mate

Absolute proof that you don't need the latest 50+ mph LiPo-powered speed machine to have fun! Yes, it is bouncy but it still goes well on most terrain. I have owned a Holiday Buggy since the 1980's and always found it drove best on the beach where the surface was more forgiving on the suspension. My vintage machine still uses all the original Acoms electronics and the Tamiya 6V Ni-Cd battery that was bought with the kit 40 years ago. You can see the start of my restoration project on my channel, BlackSeaRC.

I was 19 back in in 81 when the Holiday buggy came out and I got one after seeing seeing the videos in the model shop.

Just recently got back into the cars after years of flying planes and helicopters.

It looks like the suspension actually works pretty well, it just has no travel at all and relies on the big soft tires to take up the big bumps and jumps. The army here in the mid 30s was trying to come up with a Jeep type vehicle and the proving ground had some leftover Austin mini cars they had tested so they built a basically sled with wheels, a motor, machine gun, and no suspension out of the leftovers. At the time it would bounce over most terrain and the driver and passenger laid down on it to drive it. They called it the belly flopper. I guess it relied on the tires to take some of the big hits too. I read about it in the book Indestructible Jeep, which was actually originally published in England so local to you. My original RC 10 has very nice oil shocks and lands like a sponge. They certainly made some major upgrades quickly as things progressed
