Lovely buggy 🇬🇧🇬🇧

[@geejayrc9401]

Nice. That will be killer in the little Marder. What gearing you running in that

[@316RC]

Right now I have the stock 19/46 in there for break in. After that I have a 44 spur and several pinions to play with.

[@eastsiderc]

Nothing wrong with Sunoco its great fuel I use both VP and Sunoco 112 its the money fuel!! Its sounds good brother !!

[@316RC]

Smells good too 😛. They sell the 112 Sunoco at the pump about 45 minutes away. So I’ll take a trip there every so often and pick up 5 gallons. Thanks for watching brother. Tell Braap mom happy Mother’s Day 😃

[@bluegroovemodelsports9650]

That little FG should be fast on that setup....

[@316RC]

Yes should be 😜 fast ⛽️💥

[@BlazerNL]

Would love to see this run

[@316RC]

Soon!

[@crashbash5554]

How has that obr 30.5 held up over this past year? I'm looking @ thier 29.5 or 30.5 for my 30dn dtt-7.

[@jarviscrawford7194]

Did that motor fit straight in did u have to make any adjustments will u sell it ?

[@316RC]

No adjustment needed other than I had to replace the clutch housing on the OBR engine to a Zenoah FG housing. There is a special notch cut in the FG one because of the way the clutch carrier mounts.

[@donwoodruffii3943]

Did you use a discount code ? If so what was it ?

[@Serialcrasher]

Running video of this beast soon 3:16 ?

[@316RC]

Eventually I hope 😯😯 A lot of life stuff has gotten in the way of RCs unfortunately.

[@valeriocicchetta1774]

Dove si può comprare quel tipo di scarico?

[@benjaminsermot3872]

Hello What's the whells? What's the exa? 24mm? Thankyou

[@316RC]

MadMax tires & wheels. Mine are FG square but also available in 24mm.

[@user-vt7jw1cs1d]

Where can i bay parts for the FG marder?

[@316RC]

DDM or RC car online

[@mrboostification]

Do you like the tires?

[@316RC]

I do they work great on pavement and hard pan.

[@Robby-Dee]

what pipe is that??

[@316RC]

DDM Dominator. You must slightly modify the Marder body to use this pipe. www.ddmracing.com/DDM-Dominator-Chrome-Pipe-for-FG-2WD-4WD-Offroad-Vehicles-DDM001

[@Robby-Dee]

@@316RC yes thank you will be getting that in 2 weeks I see they ship to uk aswell! Can you tell me what part do you need to modify? Would the carb need jetting after fitting it?

[@316RC]

@@Robby-Dee The body will need some trimming where the pipe will come in contact with it. I trimmed mine and then put some metal tape on the inside to protect the plastic. No need to do anything with the carb. What engine and carb do you have now?

[@KHeidendal]

Running in a new engine? Let it heat up to temperature and drive a few laps, let it cool down for 15 minutes. Start the engine and drive around en let it heat up. After its warmed up just rip it.
