Back when kev handled his cars carefully and actually was gentle

[@koudaf9483]

Yes haha😂

[@tronofficial8683]

Bro 😂😂😂

[@stevenenglehart3217]

I also love your videos a lot. I’ve only been watching for around a month or so but I was interested in rc cars since I was a kid and my uncle was running his nitro traxxas up the road haha but your videos have completely reclaimed my interest in rc cars. Thank you 🤙

[@rolandhennig7757]

Watched this in 2022 geez Kevin you have come a long way!

[@dannyb9083]

Man do i miss these workshop vids. You barley ever talk to us now.

[@traviscoile6112]

Hi Kevin, ok so remember this simple rule when drilling metal. The harder the metal the slower the speed. Also a good drilling fluid is automotive antifreeze. Just remember to clean ot up properly because its roxic to animals. Good luck and thanks for the great vids!

[@bigdaddyd82vapes92]

Yeah Mr Talbot you have earned a sub with this one ! That Titanium is really tough stuff! Great job!

[@camsty1225]

You should do that titanium plate thing with your xmax that would make so many sparks

[@realcrazyrc9180]

One of the best Rc channels dude keep it going 👍

[@speeddemon2152]

Awesome video Kevin 👍🏼👍🏼 I’m doing the same build but just noticed I’ll have to grind the battery box.

[@krakow0457]

Awesome, that's gonna be so fast!! The idea about the titanium is good, will look cool going up a ramp! :)

[@DaddyMakesCoffee]

Missed this type of your videos on other well branded rigs.

It's almost the same as the hyper VSe.

[@allen5976]

Hi Kev Gr8 vid. I have a hyper 21 nitro, no patience for nitro anymore. Any idea what I’d need to convert to electric? Can I use original center diff etc? Is there different mounts needed for motor/ esc? Any advice would be great. 👍

[@MotorsRC]

where's the speed run video? I'm looking at this combo for my trophy buggy

[@rcbullshit7859]

I just purchased an mx8 combo for my UDR is that a good match up for that vehicle??? Love the videos you guys are funny as hell!!

[@roynelson7613]

Great set up I rub Hobbywing and ez-Run.and 2200kv.6S.very fast👊👊👍👍

[@keelanbennett3430]

Oh old Kev videos are epic

[@ClarkesMadRcs]

Hey kev I have a titanium drill bit it's 7 mm wide I will send it to you ! Also if you don't need it when are yo7 going to finish this

[@JPSkriP]

Lube the spots with some oil as u drill so the bit can stay sharper longer, otherwise the friction generated heat will soften the drill bit and go dull fast, and also drill at a slower speed. Drilling to fast will dull the bit faster also. With titanium, you do need a carbide /diamond dusted drill bit rated for high tensile strength, but also can do it with stepping the drill bit gauge in stages. Make a pilot mark, with a punch, and then start off with 2 steps smaller drill bit to break through a pilot hole, then you can step up next size, widen the hole, and then one more size up drill bit to final size. Thats how i learned to do it with metals harder than iron/steel to drill. But cutting, either carbide based, diamond dusted blade and lube also, or plasma cutter / high pressure water jet cutting table.

[@htnttf1]

Wow watching this video compared to your new videos you are so much more confident and fun today

[@potatosalad1485]

Love this style of videos

[@Otiesh]

Ken nice Video, these hobao's are really nice cars. I just converted mine into a Rally car

[@jasonbarnhill5006]

That's a nice set up. I bet it moves.

[@danhamjam]

Kevin. Do you have any advice on shimming front end of a sloppy Hyper VS? Owt in your shop like a set of shims I could buy? I’m making a few replaceable lexan Shields for my new light weight chassis.

[@JSM991]

Great video as usual Kev is that system compatible 8s?

[@br1ann88]

You know you are Kevin when you have a plate of metal at home

[@humboldtef]

Bead locks for burnouts? It seems like the heat is gonna break the beads loose on most all glue on tires. And thanks for the little info on mixing up wires on sensored motors, it explains why I fried an ESC when I was trying to throw together a test setup for a friends new rig. It was a Tamiya ESC so no labels on the wires and I was too lazy to research, Oh well it was junk before it melted anyway.

[@monolinkster]

Can you please review and test the himoto e18t 1/18 rc cars?

Hi kev where can I get that motor mount from ? I have a hyper 7 it was nitro but converted it to brushless but I want to fit a bigger motor and my mount isn't good enough cheers bud. Awasomes vids by the way

[@joepierreportelli1149]

Hi Kevin what is the run time approximately?? Because I am thinking of racing against nitro with one of these !!

[@lisocampos8080]

Id love to see the titanium plates sparking. Try just double faced tape on it. It should hold.

[@joshchatwin8569]

Would this be good for my kraton exb or should I just go for the max6 combo

What tires do you use for bash your 1/8th buggies and truggys?

[@VBshredder]

The brake cleaner i've used makes tamiya plastic turn white, just FYI! PS - I like the heatshrink stretch trick!

[@BASSstarlet]

In general, brake cleaner is great for rc's and especially nitro!

really want to do this build on my ftx carnage NT is it possible kev! please let me know thanks

[@terranjohnson6457]

[@stevenenglehart3217]

2:29 why it’s ALWAYS a good idea to keep the hand grip on your grinder 😂😂

[@BensMiniToons]

And always pull the blade rotating away from the way your pulling it.. never push against the way it's turning.

Im thinking about using the same ecu and motor in my ecx torment but i dont know what batteries to get. What can you recomend battery wise? Love the videos by the way

[@user-dz2jv4in5z]

I was looking at a Redcat Everest 10 for my first crawler. I have a 4 yr old daughter that I wanted to do this with. Do you know much about them? Thanks Kelly

[@stpbasss3773]

I have talked to a guy who has one and he loves it he drove it over his friends trx4 lol, another great first crawler is the ecx barrage or a doomsday barrage they are cheap and have a very similar chassis design to a trx4, I just got a ecx barrage at my local hobby shop for 99$ and it's awesome. They are usually anywhere from 160$ to 220$ which is exactly the price range of the redcat lol. I'm going to get the Everest 10 too because I have heard nothing but good things about it.

[@lukeisbadlol]

If you want to get a crawler I personally would get axial. I have experience with redcat and many just little things break, like receiver bad connectors reverse does not work, then it works so just get an axial.

[@galaxxylunavevo3887]

Ecx tempest or a axial deadbolt.

[@itsmike4646]

Can this same set up go in the xmaxx 8s

[@allstynbarton331]

What kv is best with a slash 4x4. Looking for speed but still want some tourqe

[@war_josh1550]

Doesnt matter what kv you can get more speed by getting a bigger pinion but I say 3200kv to 3800kv is best

[@soccerman37]

any running video of this thing?

Kevin I have been watching you for a long time love the videos but I always wondered what happens with all the combos you take out

[@KevinTalbotTV]

If they are new ebay them if used just keep em for a rainy day.

[@jeffv2074]

Black drill bit some oil so your bit could last and drill slower let the drill bite, high speed just prematurely wears out you drill bits, better yet get a small bench press😁👍🏼

[@malikidun9576]

saya kagum dengan koleksi RC anda bos ,kapan saya punya RC seperti itu .salam kenal dari INDONESIA ☺☺☺😊😊🙏🙏🙏

[@airtimerc1400]

So I have a Traxxas Slash 2WD, what would a good brushless upgrade be for that truck? would the EZ run system work?

Velineon 3500 kv and Vxl 3s esc is perfect but if you what cheap go ghoul rc there great for the price

Drill it in a low gear slower the better and use oil or cutting lube

Just purchased the Hobbywing max 8 combo and my power switch and set button doesn’t work. When I plug the battery in the car is on and the only way for me to turn it off is to unplug the battery. Would you say it’s still safe to drive since something inside the ESC seems to be short?

[@user-dz2jv4in5z]

Well if it's broken out of the box they should replace it for you. Don't these have a warranty anyways?

[@cameronsteers5453]

Use a drill press for drilling the titanium it will get through it like butter

Not the normal one but the pro version has all the 7075 and carbon fiber upgrades. It costs about 100€ more than the regular one.
