Down right vicious with that 38cc engine, I think a speed test would be appropriate with this one

@@thunderrc where is it at

[@jasonkraus7442]

A Taylor engine might be too much power, Rocky? She's gonna be all over the place wanting to sting everybody like a seriously pissed off murder hornet. Lol. The 38cc motor seems like a good fit for it. But can't wait to see it rip with the Taylor. Maybe a different pipe would make her sound throatier. Loving Momma Thunder's camera work; it's not easy keeping such a beast centered. 🌩🌩🌩❤❤🤪👍👍🤘👊✊💯💥❤🌩🌩

[@thunderrc]

I’m thinking maybe a 40 or 46gt Taylor. Momma Thunder always does a great job filming 💪💯💥 I’m blessed to have her 😍

[@juliachatwell]

Thanks Jason!!! This Kraken is definitely a keeper in the murder hornet section lol. That thing is FASST!

[@SteelCityRC]

Awesome showing of the new rig man! I had no idea there was a 38cc available from Fearless. Looks like a ripper. Thanks for sharing the footage!

[@thunderrc]

Yes it’s a great engine! 💪👍⚡️🏆🏆🏆

[@clayton8465]

Dammit -28 c here this morning. I won’t be beating mine. But good news is the Taylor 50 is broken in and I’m ready!

[@thunderrc]

Dang I hope it warms up for you soon up there! Heck yeah! That 50 is gonna be loads of power!!!💪🏆

[@3DMOFO2020]

Looking forward in seeing a ''Vs'' video on this one vs your new Grave Digger someday? Epic job on the ripp👍👍👍👍👍👍

That RIPS🏁🤘 Great Setup 👍

That engine woke it up! 👍 The question in my 5th scale group of friends is,....... Is the chassis straight?

[@thunderrc]

Yes it’s straight!! 💪👍⚡️👍

That’s a solid rig Thunder how you getting so many rigs lately I’m super jealous!!!

Thanks bro! Just been trying to promote the channel! ⚡️👍⚡️⚡️⚡️

It is super tough! 💪👍⚡️💯💥

[@billykennedy2265]

Should have saved the test run til after the winter storm came through it would have been awesome watching that thing on ice. 😀

[@thunderrc]

That would be cool bro but I live very far south. Almost 3 hours from Mexico so we never get ice here. Very very rare 😱⚡️⚡️😱

[@longboardguy]

That thing absolutely ripped and it sounded good too! I’m thinking it might be my next 1/5 car. Hell I might even sell my Losi 5B and build one of these. The 38cc seems like a great match to this buggy ! Great video thanks🍻🇨🇦

[@chickenamburgsrc]

oh yeah how much lol

[@thunderrc]

Heck yeah!!! It’s awesome! ⚡️👍⚡️💪💯

[@bluegroovemodelsports9650]

Nice looking car. Those spikes on the tires went along great with that 38cc for good wheelies

[@thunderrc]

Thank you brother! 👍🏆⚡️🏆 the spike tires are awesome !!!!!

[@bashemrc6871]

That things a ripper 🔥🤘

[@thunderrc]

It is! Thanks bro!

[@user-tq9jg6kh6e]

Nice to know that the Rovan pipe fits the buggy. The engine is a Zenoah 32cc unit? Their site don't say it. With the $300 off it's maybe a good vehicle to buy now.

[@thunderrc]

That is the 30 Degree North 38 CC engine on this truck in this video

[@billykennedy2265]

I know my 3s 1/16 4wd slash is awesome on ice because I tested it out last night lol.

[@thunderrc]

Cool man. Sounds like a blast!

[@billykennedy2265]

It's very uncontrollable 😆 only time I can go full throttle is when I'm already rolling straight otherwise it just does an awd burnout and spins out 😆. I have had to do some suspension tuning on it to make it more controllable. It's wicked fast with stock gearing my German shepherd couldn't keep up with it. I'm considering putting in higher gearing to make the take off more controllable and then it will really fly.

[@markwatson9413]

Credit to the camera man/woman 👍 that things insane 👌

[@thunderrc]

Thank you. She does an amazing job!

[@juliachatwell]

Thank you Mark. I appreciate your feedback as this was definitely a challenging car to film!! So fast 💥💯💥

[@nickimperatrice350]

Awesome rip for sure. Amazing camera work trying to follow that thing and always have the car in the center of the screen. Top notch as always bro.

[@thunderrc]

Thank you Nick! It’s running great⛽️! My camera person is amazing. She does an awesome job !!! 👍💪💯 thanks again

[@juliachatwell]

Thank you!!! Really appreciate that feedback on the camera work. It’s definitely challenging 🙌 and this car is fast!!! Hard to keep in the frame 🎯

Freaking awesome rig man thanks for the vid , I just ordered my first 5 b Baja from fearless with a 36 cc engine . Any recamendations on oil brand ?

You’re gonna love it! I use Amsoil dominator

[@wadevallbona5314]

First view and comment!! I think this may be on my wish list now! It's just begging to be abused and ripped wide open! Good stuff brotha ⚡⚡⚡🏆🏆🏆

lighter clutch springs definite help.

Yes. I’ll have to try that! Thanks bro! ⚡️💥👍⚡️

[@natertater8917]

I wonder if the drivetrain will swap out with the Baja’s.. could open up for more custom builds

[@thunderrc]

I don’t know! That would be awesome if it did.

[@natertater8917]

@@thunderrc it looks like the spur gear and rear diff are practically identical. I really like the separate rear shock tower with multiple points. .. only one way to find out . Keep ripping brother

[@mattmaclearn263]

I’m debating the electric version

[@thunderrc]

👍💪💥 sick dude. Sounds fun!!! I bet the electric is amazing as well 💥💥💥

[@kingkongrc247]

💯👍🏁

[@thunderrc]

Thanks bro!

[@greatwhitenorthrc509]

Looks like the shocks could use some stiffer springs

[@thunderrc]

Yeah and maybe thicker weight 💪👍💪

[@brettlaselva]

It looks like that nasty crash was the result of too much rebound in the rear shocks. I second the heavier weight oil idea first and if you don't get enough Rebound with heavier oil ad a preload spacer or a slightly stiffer spring and I think that will be one hell of a good handling machine.

[@knolatwood3201]

The stock motor wasn't a Zenoah though, I wish it was, but those 30N 38cc rip.

The weather is not helping!

[@hans-josteinhglund5685]

I could not bring my self to buy a 2wd but it looks fast fast and fun. I ve alwayus wanted the SC truck

[@thunderrc]

2wd is a blast bro! You should try it sometime!💥💥⚡️💯💯Thanks bro!

[@CavaleraForPrez]

Love the vids man, especially the 1/5 scale gas, that's my favorite for sure. Been wanting to pull the trigger on this or the losi dbxl 2.0 gas, both look promising🤘

[@thunderrc]

Thanks my brotha! Heck yeah man! 5th scale is where it is at!🏆💥⚡️⚡️💯

[@pootube45]

Thunder! looks to me like this may be the best handling 5th scale you have, so much suspension travel! Maybe the spiked tires had a lot to do with it, but do you notice a difference in how this handles turns and bumps compared to the Rovan and 30Dnb?

[@thunderrc]

Thanks brother! Yeah man this truck is pure awesomeness!💯💥💥⚡️ The suspension is amazing on this beast! Tomorrows video I compare it to the Rovan D5 buggy! 💪⚡️💥💥

[@thunderstormrc]

It would be interesting to compare it to the electric version. The weight distribution might be a bit different.

[@thunderrc]

Good idea! ⚡️💥⛽️⚡️

[@hans-josteinhglund5685]

If you porting the 38cc,Hove is power compered to a obr 32 fullmod piston port

Thanks brotha! Yeah man that 38 is a beast!💪🏆🏆⚡️

[@thomasthetankengine7153]

Looks like the shocks are designed to pop off so it doesn't break instead 🙉 just the sound off it definitely piss the hood off 😜

Did you run the 32cc motor? Interested to see if it’s any good heard it’s not a zen g320 but a rovan 32, just wondered if you had ran it and if the motor was good?! Love the video bro

[@joshuacrider781]

Definitely want one! How much did that car cost you as it sits in this video - the tires

[@akselnielsen4231]

Been many years since i drove RC cars. I had the HPI baja with ALOT of extra stuff + reed engine etc How does this compare to a HPI baja ?

Nice car, intresting how the chassisplate will hold up, i think it will bend very easily becaus there s no support there

THIS THING IS BAD TO THE BONE BROTHER! SUGGESTION FOR A PLACE TO TEST AND RIP THAT IVE HAD A TON OF FUN AT WHILE ALSO REALLY PUTTING IT THROUGH ITS PACES. TRY TO FIND A GOLF COURSE. YES ITS FAIRLY DIFFICULT BUT IT CAN BE DONE. HAPPY RCing

Yes that golf course is a great idea. 👍 thanks bro! ⚡️💥💯💥⚡️💪

Why was it leaning after that big tumble?

[@thunderrc]

It was the body, it came lose ⚡️💥💯💯⚡️ I didn’t have all the body retainer screws on it

[@bubblesrcshed]

That looks plenty fast for a 5th scale Gas’er, the pipe sounds freakin great, dang I may have a new favourite aside from the 30° North 🤔

[@kotetsujin3493]

Yeah its weird may be the stock gearing is high for this truck the 30 degree buggy wont run that fast using that engine

[@paulclancy2404]

Lighter less rotational mass with two wheel drive unless you mesnnthe 2wd than I'd say it's shorter wheel.base

Did you buy it stock with the 38cc engine in it or you bought the engine separately ?
