I agree, after hearing a minute of the song, I paused the vid, went and downloaded the original “Africa”, and a few of the remixes. Not sure if I downloaded this version, great remix.

I love these videos but I kinda ruined R/c for myself.. been into the hobby since 1997 and was primarily into Tamiya, HPI and Yokomo in the early 2000s. After I bought all the latest and greatest gear, cars and accessories, hop ups etc etc, a car below pro level just doesn’t interest me.. I want to find something that’ll make me happy again but I haven’t found that chassis. Lol im weird

I got this car and can’t get it to stay straight. Idk what else to try without using stabilization control. But I have to ask for 174$ what makes that servo even worth all that money?

King Nica you don’t need a $174 Servo to go straight. What you’ll want is a digital servo - even as little as the Savox 1257tg. It’s about $65 and it digital, so it’s always tracking center

For the price ($139 at the time of this posting) it's not too bad. Sure, it's entry level with a lot of plastic, but add on a body/wheels/tires of your choice and you have a great looking car
