I Bought This Unknown Nitro RC Car From a Subscriber Will It Run?

[@RuggedRc]

That is indeed a Traxxas Nitro Bandit , very very rare! They were fast can't wait to see you run it

[@robertsanderson1773]

You'll never believe who invented nitro engines. Ferdand Porsche in the early 30s.

[@andrewgates9518]

Tether car wasn't it

[@rockrollarc9792]

I wish I was as good as you at diagnosis of nitro problems.. Man ur a genius 👍

[@djcoolv4084]

Your a genius when it comes to these nitro engines

[@beandean356]

Yeah this is not his first Rodeo

[@beandean356]

Real impressive diagnosis man well done.

[@joshdupont2209]

I can confirm, nitro engines do not need an exhaust to run. I had the exhaust come off the engine and still run for a minute or so before i turned it off

[@fcbaker65]

Nice little score!..😎👍 I noticed that you had to tighten up the header an that end piece of the muffler , those leaks probably caused lack of pressure to the tank ,also be weary of that type of fuel line because the inter dimension of the tube is tiny an may restrict the fuel! I have fuel line like that an cant use it because the hole is too small an it does not provide enough fuel flow!

[@ryancook2887]

Yeah I agree but have had success using it for the back pressure line

[@KEITHDROBINSON-d2w]

Nito engines had been around in racing for years but in the late 80s a young man desighned the first nitro 2.5 cc engine for rc followed by the 3.3 which were the first TRX engines. The mans name was Keith Danieal Robinson. Keep in mind nitro engines already existed he just desighned the first for RC.

[@royl1211]

Looks like a kyosho rampage or a sand master with different tires. The sand master mkII was my first car my dad bought me for Christmas. I've been looking for one for years to purchase for nostalgia.

[@HaggardRC]

Well this one is for sale...

[@nathanwebster2800]

May also have some parts from a duratrax nitro evader BX buggy installed on it

[@ModModRc]

Mad how i find info i need. Im starting my cars that not started in 4yrs, 2 more left back pressure is an issue glad i seen this trick when i did

[@HaggardRC]

Glad I could help 😊

[@charlief689]

Where will I find the cars you sell

[@HaggardRC]

I offer them to the channel members then they usually go on eBay or the MSUK forum. I haven’t had any for a while though lol

[@jayp9299]

Haha I have done that same thing with the exhaust line. Sometimes they need some help

[@ironhead320]

I know some of those mufflers were a mess with back pressure.They look good but I don't use them

[@AJYZF1R2010]

You just opened my eyes to why my nitro has been running lean specifically when tank gets half way I’m taking that stupid thing off thank you

[@HaggardRC]

Some engines will run fine with a filter, others won't 🤘🏼

[@purpledonatello]

Mystery solved. Hmm.. might be how the back pressure flow of the exhaust is out upwards then use to seeing the side. Maybe it's not getting good pressure to fuel tank and yes I learn something new from you today. Thanks dude.

[@joski9030]

I used to have that one industries hoodie I miss my mx bikes , hopefully get one for summer !

[@HaggardRC]

Believe it or not I got that hoodie when I was 8. It was massive on me, I’ve worn it daily since it started to fit me when I was around 15 😂 best hoodie ever!

[@alexgarrod9093]

Sweet bud know where get nitro fule from or traxxis russler tyre's from

[@rcsendandblast1579]

[@CrazyDad226]

Nice video mate. I really enjoyed the video. I love surprises too😊💯👍always before play. Therapy . Stay safe mate👊🏻

[@henryfoster3212]

Harggard RC good a new nitro buggy is looks like a nitro bandit😮Traxxas 💯🇺🇸🇬🇧

[@EJ-74]

Use a fishtank pump to pressurise the fuel system for testing purposes so you dont have to use your mouth 😉 Gotta love the taste of nitro 😁

[@HaggardRC]

Haha well I'm not that bothered about a bit of nitro 😂

[@ofnaguycarlwatts8602]

Just started watching.but wth is a glow starter?? You have to start a glow plug. HaG would it be glow igniter maybe?? HaG explain plz 😂😂

[@marchall1970]

Traxxas did release a nitro buggy in 93

[@captainronify]

Long live nitros.. love the content

[@gillian9178]

Looks like a Protech, with wrong body / wing on it.

[@TheFPVEra]

It is funny how you always say:"Is it a Traxxas?" and i read Traxxas at the spoiler the whole time😂 p.s. i think something is maybe wrong with the back right wheel (maybe bearing) because it stops immediately after you let go of the throttle

[@HaggardRC]

😂

[@vincentaversa820]

lol The wing says traxxas and the body says bandit.

[@Nitro-Aaron31]

That is a duratrax sc truck, traxxas never made a nitro bandit

[@AlfieFury]

Very true, it’s a Duratrax Maximum BX also traxxas did do a bandit but only a electric one 👍👍

[@Nitro-Aaron31]

@@AlfieFury I just said a nitro bandit that they didn't make the bandit vxl is awesome tho! I have one of those altho the vintage nitro rustler back in the day did have a similar bandit chassis so I can understand why some people would mistake it for the bandit.

[@franksluga8790]

Looks like a rustler mate , I might be wrong but don’t think traxxas made a bandit nitro , anyway watching from Canada🍻🍻🫡

[@HaggardRC]

Canada oooo pleasure to have you here!

[@420rcjay]

dude its a duratrax truggy i forget the name of it

[@ThatRCGuy1]

Haggard wanna buy my hpi mt2 runs mint but i dont have time for it anymore

[@stickman101cv]

Looks like a duratrax Ben

[@greatgooglypuff6077]

It says on the wing traxxas

[@daledavis8093]

I want to say that is the Traxxas Bandit, but not sure? Its a Traxxas chassis

[@HaggardRC]

Your guess is a good as mine 😂

[@robertsanderson1773]

It is a traxxas bandit bud but the front shock towers have been changed. That's why the shell don't fit right pal..

[@nathanwebster2800]

Buggy

[@speckledjim_]

Way too much metal in it for it to be a Traxxas :)

[@lisafulmer8530]

I'm pissed I got scammed for a losi nitro a few days ago I wish I would have got mine

[@HaggardRC]

How on earth did you get scammed?

[@stevehawking4958]

I know exactly what that model is & what company/country they originally come from. (I have one brand new! in a box) but yours is a miss-match of other 1/10 scale nitro models. Shell/Spoiler looks to be from a traxxas bandit electric buggy, wheels/tyres & what looks like a Vertex VX .18 engine are from Acme/HSP Models. Shocks are not original either. The Tank, Chassis are original, you have a plate missing from the RX/battery area, the servos look as if they've been swapped too! alloy pull-start provides extra cooling IMHO. Right, they come from: Australia! made by a company called GV Models (Great Vigor) No longer around as they are 30-5+ years old. What you have is a GV Panther 1/10 buggy. As for the person whom 'Thinks' Ferdinand Porsche made nitro cars in the 30s is Wrong! he designed Full Size Grand Prix cars & Land Speed record cars. Not models/toys! RC cars are thanks to RC plane flyers, it all started in the 1920s when modelers/hobbyists found they could use an RC planes fuselage with wheels & a 2 stroke glow engine, on the ground, by tying a string to an arm, sticking out of the fuselage & the other end to a pole, then they'd start the glow engine & let it run round & round, they were called 'Tether cars' they went from the 1920s & way up to into the 1960s Still used/collected to this day. (they are not cheap!) You need deep 1000++ pound pockets 😲 Nitro RC Cars started there journey at the start of the 70s after all the tether craze, I believe it was 'Team Associated' whom put out the 1st Nitro/Glow engine RC car. M0*** (sorry on-air only) Steve. You looking forward to your 10watts going to 25watts this month? I might catch/hear you at last 73s back to you Ben/Uncle Bulgaria/Mr Bean - M6XSZ

[@HaggardRC]

Nice info thanks Steve. 10 watts? 😅

[@stevehawking4958]

Your a foundation license holder right ? max TX power was 10 watts, it goes up this month. Ofcom upped it to 25watts. Beats the chicken banders on 12 watts SSB 😁

[@alexgarrod9093]

Least got it running dude know it's old

[@HaggardRC]

Runs like a dream 👌🏻

[@bowi73]

its not traxxas but don't know what it is

[@HaggardRC]

It’s a UFO

[@Callamcooper1924]

Looks similar to the duratrax maximum st chassis

[@nathanwebster2800]

A modified Traxxas nitro

[@danielwatson9159]

It might be a Rustler Nitro Sport.

[@Nthnfpv]

Bandit from traxxas hmmmmm
