Building a Lightweight 2WD Race Buggy - B7 Build Series - Part 1

[@BlackThunderRC]

Ive watched the one on the B6.2 a couple of times and it taught me alot. Can't want for this series !

[@ZAR66]

I recently bought a B7D from you guys because of this video.

[@harlyquin]

Pretty cool when the place you work at builds an RC track, also that track looks better than any track ive ever raced on

[@WiiskaOG]

honestly, im stealing that color scheme. The orange and blue looks super cool

[@DrinkhtooO]

Perfect timing. Get ready to build one myself.

[@TheSonsofLightChristianMinistr]

Can't wait to see this baby on the track! My brother and I think we saw you yesterday at the grocery outlet opening a car door for a lady? Class act if that was you and thanks for the videos, we are big fans.

[@AMain_Hobbies]

Ha! That's funny. I was there Saturday. Say hi next time. -Brett

[@kanenas6007]

Love it! This kind of series is my favorite, I have seen the previous 6.2 a dozen of times!

[@definitelynotaweeb1111]

Need a stadium truck series next 😂❤

[@Bziiit.]

Looking fit man, congrats

[@LegendsPizzaCo]

Interesting choice for motor. I have that Whitz motor in my T6.4 but lately I've been replacing all my Team Powers and Whitz motors with the Surpass Rocket RC V6. The V6 blew the Team Powers out the water. I also did the full whitz racing bearings on my B7. It's nice to have ceramic bearings on the wheels and the tranny.

[@myharryface]

If only I lived closer to AMain ... I would buy and build a car like this and be at the track ALL the time.

[@kevinlhighfill]

Neat build! Wishing you and your team good luck in the turns!

[@ch-vs3fw]

Hey, the new track layout looks FANTASTIC

[@kdhrcs9182]

Don't forget to get that weight up! As per ROAR the minimum running weight for a 2wd buggy is 1474g.

[@CaliCoastRCFPV]

Run plastic pinion gears! I never had an issue with them while running 17.5 and I definitely felt they made it faster! Just got to get the mesh right!

[@davidvasta]

Just built mine...waiting for the AMAIN Carpet Track in Charlotte!

[@slgordon1]

Is that really happening

[@aviano72]

Love these types of videos

[@jamesisjolly]

Excellent Video my friend.

[@DOWNUNDERRCS]

it must be crazy hair day at amain hehehe 😎

[@RoccoDoucette]

So excited love the build videos

[@barryriffle8076]

im excited to see you race for a season

[@meirdeaph]

That is awesome 💯🏁👍

[@SleekHobbies88]

Sweet set up, amain hobby should move to Ohio as well, alot of land and much hobbiest, close to Canada and east coast

[@wvdroneworx]

My Whitz Motor came with a sensor wire. Per your instructions i had to order one. I did. Now I have a spare....

[@johngrant1337]

great video thanks

[@camau80]

Nice build!

[@shuster1921]

🤩Bling Buggy🤩

[@andrewsumner5388]

Nice job Brett! I built a B6.4 and the local track closed. What a bummer…

[@AndrewSury]

Bret or Major Bedhead? lol. The B7 is on my list.

[@daylightdies7194]

I was gonna say how shattered the poor bugger looks 🇬🇧

[@NBC_NCO]

Very very nice.

[@deltazero3796]

Nice but when tutorial for 4WD buggy?

[@clives681]

They did one a little while ago!

[@CJTJBI1]

Hello Brett!

[@n00b247]

4:46 coffii at 2pm is not so bad. really. up to 6pm its just fine. after 9pm coffii that's where you are setting yourself to sleep after sunrise.

[@Backupplan94]

Had to cop some of them parts! These kind of videos are very useful for someone like me wanting to go a step further in the RC racing world ☺️ But talking to the people at my local track has been very helpful as well!

[@5280Recreation]

Would be nice to know how many of the ball studs are needed for the kit. Better yet, how about a shared wish list that has EVERYTHING used?

[@AMain_Hobbies]

We used: (1x) ASC91751 - Team Associated 6mm Factory Team Heavy Duty Titanium (3x) ASC91752 - Team Associated 8mm Factory Team Heavy Duty Titanium (2x) ASC91753 - Team Associated 10mm Factory Team Heavy Duty Titanium A master list would take some time. -Brett

[@5280Recreation]

@@AMain_HobbiesThank you. Haven’t built once since B6 days!

[@MX-CO]

Let's see some laps

[@HL-OOI]

It’s all man behind the wheels.. 😂

[@stanleysarjali8108]

The blue and orange hardware really matches good. One question. If you are taking away this much weight, wouldnt the process be for nothing if you have to add weight to make the car race legal? Or just add weights to balance the chassis? Thats one reason why i dont race 'stock'. None of my pit buddies have a kit that looks like it came straight out assembled from the kit. With 400 dollars+- more bling bling

[@theRCLlama]

I gotta build one of these

[@kanenas6007]

Can you also mention total cost of the build? Or you keep it for last, like previous series? I was thinking if it is possible to make it a public wish list at the Amain website.

[@kanenas6007]

I just saw that there is a page on Amain website that has all the details and parts for this build. 🙂

[@TFTairsoft]

Do u have a link im looking at the website and i dont see it​@@kanenas6007

[@franciscovazquez4589]

🔥🔥🔥

[@jonathanhall3823]

I have the B6.4, I’ve got the. Aluminium bell cranks and Rack. Did you have probs with play when bolting bell cranks to rack?

[@stuartclaridge8537]

Sweet. How much did you spend on the upgrades?

[@enzoquilici2994]

I'm hopeful gonna see you when 2 days.But aren't you worried about the fire.

[@toolbaggers]

iz niez 👌

[@slp2538]

How about AMAIN Carpet Track in Houston! Please pretty please! 🙏

[@RCandSTUFF12]

Review the new Traxxas drift car please!!!!!!

[@jessesheldon1736]

Please read!!! You should create a cheaters series, like underweight or higher turn motor, un-approved battery etc. Cheat the rules for stock classes and see what the time difference is

[@kanenas6007]

hey, it has been two weeks and still no new video in the series??? 😕🙃

[@CinnabonMcTasty]

swaybars or no swaybars for playing around with the B7 in a car park? ball diff or gear diff?

[@enzoquilici2994]

make a video on the futaba 4 pm plus

[@jamesdash1906]

Must be nice to have an unlimited budget !!!!!!!!!

[@brucetumblinjr7980]

They were sold out of B7’s at the time I was looking so I got a Mugen MSB1 2WD electric buggy 1/10 scale

[@SkonkBot]

Could we get a link to the setup sheet please?

[@chad125x]

What is the total cost of the buggy in the end ?

[@noswad75]

I'm new to this hobby, Why 2 wheel drive? As opposed to 4 wheel drive. Why it one over the other?

[@AMain_Hobbies]

2WD is more challenging and the has the most people to compete against. We always have a 2WD racing class during club race days, but rarely have a 4WD. -Brett

[@cchap24]

I run 4200 and 4400s in my 17.5 truck and 21.5 buggy. I don’t see any real fall off in lap times over a 5 minute run.

[@nickjonesadventures]

Where can we find the setup?

[@SstravinVR]

What was the total cost with all the upgrades

[@joeazzarello214]

How much was the cost of the upgrade parts that you used?

[@gigi9467]

How much money was all the option parts is my question?

[@LegendsPizzaCo]

29t is way too small my track. We typically all run 31/32 but each track requires different setups

[@gxr55070]

I want to buy this body with color

[@Ultegra10SPD]

Another reason why 'Stock' is a joke. -U10

[@madmike3476]

Yeah we just had a pro come out and drive our track and tell us how to set it up lol, thats awesome!

[@roysredneckgarage2956]

Bro you look like you just got outta bed! Lol

[@dyllindamm7931]

Tutorial for a customwroks beast wingless sprint car

[@TheUnknown714]

Dude, how much weight you plan on losing? You look so skinny now. Congrats 🎉

[@laserbeam1620]

I'm not sure I understand what "stock" means anymore!

[@JeepsCafe]

Beautiful! Who painted the car body?

[@MrSkullface]

Nice but it isn’t the same car!

[@dimassstep]

first

[@kennysilvers-z4x]

Why did Associated think dragging plastic behind the chassis was a good idea? No B7 for me thank you lol

[@1111-t5n]

Can you say SEXY!

[@jamesdash1906]

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

[@jerryvolpini7987]

Just build it stock! Throwing a few hundred in upgrades at it teaches me nothing about the stock car. And, please, learn how to assemble an oring into a shock cap, really not that hard 🙄 I do hate AEs instructions, they really are stuck in the 90s. They are pretty basic, lack any text and setup info is pretty dated. I mean, these are race cars so, the whole build should reflect that. I shouldnt have to be looking up things online. Also, I don't mind hand fitting parts but work on those tolerances AE and speed up construction. On a whole, love AE products and this buggy drives like a dream. Looking forward to more time behind the wheel! 👍

[@ZAR66]

Calm down Karen

[@midwestboss8808]

Xray buggy is better

[@mattes1887]

For vice champions only😂

[@rmb1]

2 wheel drive is a wasted series my man👎

[@adrastos123]

Why do they have a dirt version that sucks its not for low traction at all

[@midwestboss8808]

@adrastos123 the dirt version is for indoor clay tracks

[@Dav5049915]

Get to 1474 running weight but move as much weight down as you can.
