WOW! The servos are fidgeting because the LX thinks it's gonna get sent again. PTSD, just like bringing home a rescue dog that hasn't had a good life. Nitrogang to the rescue. ❤

[@hybrid32494]

Hey man, I think you’re totally correct about that. This buggy surely had a very tough life because the owner told me he only drives Arma now, lol I’m thinking once I bend back the chassis, I will just stick another engine and it should be fine.

[@pistonpoweredrc2092]

😮When you said the chassis was bent, I was like oh, he sent it. Man he sent it on all kinds of levels.

[@hybrid32494]

Hey man, yes, you got that right for sure. I have never seen a tough 1/8 scale buggy chassis. This bent so much that it also bent the entire driveshaft, lol

[@harlemNYCrc]

Great Deal Tho... u Can’t Beat that with a Bat! Nitro’s never die! Great pick up! 💯🔥 Sickening! 💯💯

[@hybrid32494]

hey my bro! I sure got my work cut out for me on this one. But seriously straightening to the chassis is no big deal, just going to have to source another engine and it will be a Vintage Runner!!! Thanks man.

[@bowi73]

nice video man good to see what's it like when your engine lost compression mabe this is good projekt to put the 75 dollar force 21 engine in from ali...

[@hybrid32494]

hey dude! thanks for checking out this video! YEs, im planing on just bending back some of the parts and sticking in an older Savage engine I have laying around, it will be a runner!

[@ofnaguycarlwatts8602]

That was my first OFNA. they're a beast. Bro did you know the Dynamite. 28 is the same exact Engine.you could a piston and sleeve kit and as long as the bearings are ok it would be like New Engine Brother. 👊 Hope that helps out . 👊 👊

[@davidsinclair8952]

New engine straighten the casse 🎉

[@hybrid32494]

Hey man, thanks for checking out this video and supporting the Nitro struggle, I think a new engine and just some work straightening out this chassis and this thing should be fine. As you know, I will do whatever it takes to make this thing a driver.

[@mattward4184]

Thanks for the footage sir

[@hybrid32494]

Hey dude, thank you for checking out this video and appreciating this style of Contant. It might not have been a massive skate park with jumps for no reason, but we are one step closer to making a Nitro grade again. See you on the next one.

[@Raybowski1245]

Crazy servo attack!!!

[@widegooseneck]

This buggy got me into nitro. Now that obsession has been turned into a new Mugen mbx8r I just built. Coming back to nitro baby!

[@woosahrcnitro]

You're doing great jobs for all those nitro gang out there...........fixed it and send it back!

Thank you bro! Glad somebody appreciates the jokes once in a while, lol!! Now time to learn more about my new 3D printer bro, ttyl! Making some nitro RC parts now.

[@BenshobbyStuff]

[@MikeGray-ct6hb]

That front center shaft looked bent too lol. Could be the worst shape nitro I've ever seen lol, u got your work cut out in that project!

[@hybrid32494]

I know man, I totally agree. This is for sure probably the worst Nitro I’ve ever gotten. The only good thing is it’s complete, the bad thing is everything that’s complete as bad, lol

Thank you man you too. Hope you get to burn some Nitro on this extended Presidents’ Day weekend. See you on the next one man.

That was my first nitro buggy.

[@hybrid32494]

Hey man, wow, no way! I’m happy to be able to bring you a video with something you can truly appreciate and hopefully it has brought back some positive memories. I will be sure to make this one a driver in the future.

[@VNW21]

Never seen a nitro with that much chassis bend!!

[@hybrid32494]

bro! LOL, same here!! I had no idea this thing was so BENT and damaged, but I'm thinking there is no reaosn why I cant just bend the chassis back and swap in a basic savage engine laying around right?

[@gavinwilliams4513]

Thumbs up guys

[@favulus1]

It will be great again!!

[@hybrid32494]

Hey bro! thanks for checking out this video, I will for sure do my best to make this one Super Great Again!

[@moldsrc]

what ofna had the colored wheels and tires

[@hybrid32494]

Hey dude, I know exactly exactly the vintage of the buggies you are referring to with the various colored wheels. It was usually the hyper seven and the ultra MBX buggies at that time. Period also, you could’ve easily just purchased the multiple color tires ofna sold back then

[@gavinwilliams4513]

Hey hybrid what’s hanging on this 2 stroke Sunday

[@jeschreindl]

Man that poor thing 😬 makes me wish i still had my Hyper 7

[@Certz897]

While its not a fancy buggy it is in alot of ways ofna was one of the first to come out with the "buggy" before many others and they are like the hondas of rc world they arnt fancy but what you get for the price and what Its able to do is alot i have soo many rare upgrades for the ofna lx1 from torsen diffs and transmission to have the integy tranny gear swapped in its got shocks from the new losi series big bore and im rocking a corsa lugna wrx engine i love my ofna was the first i got and ive had it since a kid and i wouldnt buy a newer buggy over it , also ive crashed mine way worse than this parts are still cheap but getting harder to find , i crashed mine bc the remote i was using was on a different chanel crystal and it would go full throttle until it hit a car tire from the back it hit the car so hard the entire car rocked forward and everything was bent even the drive shafts they always take the hit first but i bent them back and it worked fine now everything is modernized on my ofna its a shelf queen

[@Grandpasrcbarn]

Make nitro great !!

[@hybrid32494]

Hey man, thank you for checking out this video. I hope you me, and everybody else watching this video is on the same path as us trying to make another Nitro great, again. See you on the next one bro.

[@tarekkhoury5384]

Ohhhh Sunday OFNA Nitro

[@NorgeSquad]

Please make a follow-up to this video! Make this car great again!

[@ChristopherSmith-rn4wd]

I have that in the truggy version with a ofna .28 engine ,you called the engine a force engine ,is that who made ofna engines ? Trying to find a one way bairing for the roto start.

[@RockyMtBashers]

Yo hybrid this is Christina & Terry from Utah .. gonna start up my own channel

[@hybrid32494]

Hey man, I’m happy to hear it. We should all be trying to make old Nitro great again, the more of us there are the better this will work. The end goal is to influence manufacturers to bring back more nitrous and we need the numbers to make that happen. I will go subscribe to you right away.

[@ofnachix]

Wow that’s is the worst OFNA I have ever seen. And I am the best OFNA you have ever seen! There are issues on so many levels. I would not spend any money on new parts. It’s clear to me when there is a bad chassis bad radio and bad engine and missing filters etc that the seller has just whacked together all his broken spares to maximise profit. Part it out as spares to regain your investment. XOX 💋

[@hybrid32494]

I will definitely confirm. This is for sure. The worst OFNA buggy I have ever purchased, and you are most certainly the best OFNA chick in the world. I’m thinking I will probably just bend the chassis back and try to put in a random Savage engine into this and it should be pretty much drivable after that.

[@snoopysrc]

​@hybrid32494 good idea I am trade the granite for a new nitro rustler it does wheelies

[@djcoolv4084]

Y don’t you try a small screw clamp like the car hose clamp to pinch the sleeve

[@hybrid32494]

hey dude! Some people have suggested this in the past, to be honest with you it is likely to be unsuccessful due to the tiny tolerances you need to pinch a sleeve. Usually people use a re pinch service charges about $25 per engine, I have used the service like this before and they all re pinched my sleeves to the point where I can't even spin the engine over.

[@djcoolv4084]

@@hybrid32494 or you can order the pinch kit yourself since you always working on engines

[@BIG_BOYS_TOYS_RC]

Sup dmitriy luv ❤️ the lx one !!!! I had a ultra lx2e some son of a gun stole it really pssd me off but I got over it !!!!

[@hybrid32494]

Hey man, happy Nitro Sunday to you, bro. I can’t believe somebody stole your damn ofna buggy, that is just not right man. The good thing is today you have some of the best Nitro known to man, and I’m sure the jerk that stole your old buggy couldn’t even start it. See you on the next one man.

[@truerc]

👍

[@nomusicrc]

I still think you can get it running

[@hybrid32494]

Thanks man! I'd say the best think about a 1/8 buggy is that the engine and it's components are super universal and often the cheapest to replace due to the sheer availability of new engines for cheap. The chassis, I could just bend it back, should be fine.

[@AJYZF1R2010]

You made me laugh that deserves a sub 😂

I know man, this is why I just had to rescue this one. Although I did not expect it to be in such poor condition, but I’m quite sure it will be made drivable again soon. Nitro for life.

Hey bro! Im considering that right now also, the rest of the engine looks to be in normal shape, that would be the only way to help this model original, you're right! thanks bro!.

Hybrid i am gonna trade my electric rc for a nitro ruslter its a brand new one the guy hit himself in the leg with it his wife got it for him
