Tamiya 6x6 KONGHEAD Fighting Ahead!

This is Tamiya's first 6x6 off road radio controlled monster truck.
It's 1/18 scale and runs on the G6-01 chassis. The truck in this video is 100% stock.
Product informations: www.tamiya.com/...

[@vigilante351]

Seen so many people say that TAMIYA should hire you as their promo video guy. I totally AGREE. I just "binged watched" a stack of your collection, and its second to none!

[@Matteomeier]

Thanks again for your great feedback! I'm really glad you like my videos! 😊😊

[@joesonfifth3661]

Absolutely fabulous! Tamiya should use this outstandingly filmed video for the Konghead as advertisement! Keep up the great work

[@Matteomeier]

Thanks a lot Joseph! 😊

[@christianna3561]

Another OUTSTANDING video! Only Tamiya could have brought us such an amazing vehicle and engineer it to actually work! Again, well done and thank you!

[@Matteomeier]

Thanks Al! Yes, this is special Tamiya 👍

[@KS-wt9gj]

The shot at 2:27, flying through the air with the truck is great. Can’t remember that being done before. Great stuff as usual.

[@Matteomeier]

Thanks Ken! 😊

[@rccarrs1199]

Wow! That was surprisingly stable! It seemed to hold its ground very well & strong. I would have expected it to bounce around more on such a rough ground but it stayed smooth! Amazing camera work, as always. 😎👍

[@Matteomeier]

Yes, I am surprised too! Not expected this performance with the stock dampers without oil! Thanks so much for your nice feedback! 👍

[@thedumpydustman6088]

different style to normal LOVE IT!

[@Matteomeier]

Nice! Thanks! 😊

[@FrankygoestoHobbywood]

Das Video ist einfach nur Wahnsinn... der Konghead scheint echt Bock zu machen und springt wohl auch richtig cool..!

[@Matteomeier]

Vielen Dank! Ja, ist ein echt spassiges Vehikel! 👍

[@微笑人形]

NICE MOVE!! From Japan

[@Matteomeier]

Big thanks to Japan! 🇯🇵

[@KisunsRCLife]

Very dynamic driving!! Thanks for sharing.

[@Matteomeier]

Thanks for your nice feedback!

[@bartberkhout5793]

I'm going to make my son want one! Cool vid. Seems like a lot of fun to drive.

[@Matteomeier]

This is good! Sure your son will have fun with - and you too 😂😂😂

[@rolexr]

Uiiiii...da hast Du dir aber mal ein echtes Monster zugelegt Matteo - eindrucksvoll!

[@Matteomeier]

Eigentlich ist es ja eher ein Monsterlein - ist in echt gar nicht so gross wie er im Video wirkt!

[@Steve-rk6lg]

FFS Mateo!!!! Never a fan of this truck, until now and this film. Now I want one. But more than anything I want to live where you are, great location.

[@Matteomeier]

Thanks so much Stephen! 😊

[@theibault]

Awesome video Matteo! I think you captured the essence of this truck in a perfect spot to run it. This truck is on my list for the future. As always brother, fantastic video and keep up the great work. -Omar

[@Matteomeier]

Thanks so much Omar! Allways appreciate your very nice comments! 🙏

[@fildadic4217]

Great video, Matteo! This truck looks like a ton of fun to drive!

[@Matteomeier]

Yes it is! Thanks Fil!

[@rctrialamkumma5242]

Deine Art Videos (insbesondere auch von der Schnitttechnik) begeistern mich immer wieder aufs Neue! 👍

[@Matteomeier]

Vielen Dank! Und ich frue mich immer wider über solch feine Kommentare! 😊

[@ShenRC]

Great video! Imagine if only tamiya could make the real bull head and clod with 6 wheels that would really be awesome!

[@Matteomeier]

Thanks Steve! Yes, these would be really big!

[@lakmalgamage6681]

Nice suspension !!!!!

[@ginogasparillo5275]

Another awesome video Matteo! Because of you I bought a Konghead as well and now my son and I are enjoying it. Keep up the great work.

[@Matteomeier]

Thanks so much Gino! Good to see you and your son have fun with RC stuff!

[@Tamor70]

To me, your video makes this new realease of Tamiya really interesting... and your "review & upgrade video" as well! For the time being (...before purchasing a Konghead) I enjoyed watching your great pure action video, thank you! best D.

[@Matteomeier]

Thanks Daniel! Yes, this thing makes more fun as it looks in the catalogue!

[@rcjijii3655]

This is No.1 This Video No.1

[@Matteomeier]

Thanks for your No. 1 comment! 👍😊

[@NordicRC]

Superb, Matteo! I was wondering when this one would turn up on your channel. Reaaly really love the shots from 2:16 to 3:40. Simply awesome to watch! Such a great job. Thanks for sharing this with us. We've had and are having a real rainy cloudy summer in my country, so if I want to see any Tamiyas out in the sun more than once a month I must be helped :-)

[@Matteomeier]

Thank you so much! Yes, we had luck this year with the weather. Sometimes rain but not for a long period, very soon the sun came back! Maybe you have to leave the nordic area and move more to the south! 😂

[@NordicRC]

Matteo's RC Movies Ha ha, yeah that would help I'm sure. Just don't think the Mrs. would accept my argument: 'Darling, we're moving South so I can run, watch and film my Tamiyas more often in the sun' ;-) ... although I personally think it is one of the best arguments :-)

[@alfredtetzlaff7764]

Was sich Tamiya dabei gedacht hat.... Das Teil hat so richtig was von der Kinderabteilung vom Einkaufsmarkt. Furchtbarer Kitsch! Aber das Video-Klasse wie immer.

[@Matteomeier]

Danke dir für dein Feedback! Das schlimme daran ist das der Spielzeugkram auch noch Spass macht zum fahren! 👍😂

[@alfredtetzlaff7764]

Das glaub ich Dir. Aber für den Preis... Dann lieber was anderes "realistischeres" aud dem Hause Tamiya.

[@stuartmcnamara9610]

Fantastic film!

[@Matteomeier]

Thank you! 👍

[@gatti493]

i would love to see a video with this alongside the Traxxas TRX6 , i dont mean that in a bad way i think it would be VERY interesting, obviously there is a huge price difference , i just like the look of this

[@Matteomeier]

Haha, these two cars have absolutely no similarities, except the six wheels... 😊😊😊

[@gatti493]

@@Matteomeier Haha it's probably just me, I just think it would be good to see these two top brands next to each other, it would also show how we've moved forward in the hobby, taking into account that Tamiya have gone down the nostalgic route, I love comparisons but your videos are so good it makes me want to add to them lol I know I'm cheeky 😂😂😉👍

[@4mods]

I really need to make room for this truck! It just looks so cool!

[@Matteomeier]

Yes Terry, I am glad you'll have fun with! 👍

[@bertmcknarly]

Another awesome video! That truck looks like a blast to drive!

[@Matteomeier]

Thank you! 😊

[@paulguerrero972]

One of the better Rc videos on KZbin!!!! 😀 Great job!!!!

[@Matteomeier]

Thank you so much Paul! 😊

[@mikegroetzinger7257]

Einfach nur geil das Video. Das Modell muss in meine Sammlung. Und das Video zieh ich mir noch 2-3 mal rein. 👍👍👍

[@Matteomeier]

Vielen Dank Mike! Du wirst deinen Spass damit haben, ist ein richtiges Funmobil!

[@rc-dom-uk]

Looks impressive

[@Matteomeier]

Thanks! 😊

[@dafuqwrongwitu]

Found a Konghead for $150 on craigslist, after watching this video I'm going to buy it!

[@Matteomeier]

Great! Have fun! 👍😊

[@valentinconstantin8070]

Waw again ! I see ton’s of rc video on YT,and I can say... you can count on the finger the guy’s like you who make footage like you.Bravissimo! All the best from Arizona! You use gimbal...crane...etc?

[@Matteomeier]

Wow, thanks! What a great feedback! No, I use only a stick with the camera (GoPro) on it. Very simple. 👍😊

[@rcjan5690]

You`ve done it again Matteo...very cool Konghead video..

[@Matteomeier]

Thank you Jan Erik! 😊

[@cookiecats6929]

WOW!!! BEST KONGHEAD VIDEO ON THE NET!!! LOVE IT!!! THANKS FOR THIS GREAT VIDEO!!! -SUBBED!!!

[@Matteomeier]

Thanks for your nice feedback and subb! I really appreciate it! 🙏

[@satorrotas]

Excellent run , great truck !!

[@Matteomeier]

Merci! 😊

[@BuoyEngine]

Nice video , I enjoyed its running , big jumps like some kind of monster!! at 4:13 is splendid view!!

[@BuoyEngine]

↑　sorry, correct that at 2:27 time. (^_^)

[@Matteomeier]

Thanks Buoy! どうもありがとう !

[@4x4rcenthusiasts88]

Hi Matteo, great video for a very funny truck! Also in this video your great sensitivity and skill shines in video editing, filming and choice of music. Great again, Matteo!

[@Matteomeier]

Thank you so much Paolo! Allways a big pleasure to read your fine feedbacks! 😊

[@henrywashington3732]

I have a old Radio Shack/Nikko Wild Horse. It is 1/14 scale but only 4wd. It however has wheel wells in back for 3rd axle.🤔

[@Matteomeier]

I see, looks a bit weird with this wheel wells...

[@PeteWylieRC]

Wow what a fantastic video you've made of this great truck. I've bought one too but it's still in the box waiting for me to build it. Watching your vid has made me think that I really need to get on with it !

[@Matteomeier]

Thanks Pete! Yes, I'm sure you'll love it! 👍

[@johnbedingfieldiv7221]

Another perfect video.......thanks for sharing!

[@Matteomeier]

Thanks for your good feedback John!

[@BasBoyRC]

Cool, nice to see someone with 4ws on the truck :-)

[@Matteomeier]

Thanks! Yes, the 4ws is a big advantage!

[@rcalltypes8230]

Well made video as always, I could see myself fitting a Castle 1410 3800kv motor combo & 2s lipo, steel pinion gear, bearing set, oil shockers, some alloy suspension parts lol, probably no rear steering though. Still a little pricey here in Australia atm. I'll still keep an eye out for one.

[@Matteomeier]

This would be a crazy six wheeler! Thanks for your comment!

[@Projectlinkme]

How about a video of ur equipment and production process? Such smooth video... How do u achieve that look?

[@Matteomeier]

Lot of work and effort. Camera on a stick and hold it down. High fps rate is important for videos like this.

[@ThePlaylistGuy-TPG]

Il a un petit style qui lui vas bien moi j'aime bien.

[@Matteomeier]

Ca c'est bon! Merci!

[@waynekiblersrcadventures]

WOW, that was cool. Love it, love it, love it. That was fun to watch. 👍😃👍

[@Matteomeier]

Thanks so much! Glad you liked it! 😊🙏

[@uncletom1971]

Great stuff as always. I was wondering "when is Matteo doing the Konghead.." - And here it is!

[@Matteomeier]

Thanks Thomas!

[@RCBoomer]

That was a awesome video that you made there Matteo! It remind me of that video you made with the TXT- Agrios and I still watch that one over and over again! It sounds good on my new sound system I crank it up real loud, lol! Keep them coming! :-) I guess I'm have to have that one to my Christmas list!!!

[@Matteomeier]

Thank you RC Boomer! Glad you liked it this much! 👍😊

[@thomaslz]

WOW! you always have an amazing place to shoot these videos! Keep up the Great Work! also if you find some Company, make sure you shoot 2 or more KongHeads! Fighting!

[@Matteomeier]

Thanks Thomas! Yes, it would be great to run it toghether with friends! 👍

[@tinokung7554]

Geniales Video Matteo!!! Dieser Truck/Monstertruck ist einfach lustig anzuschauen. Das Fahrzeug dämpft sehr schön ein und auch deine Film-künste sind wie immer Top!! Weiter so!!!

[@Matteomeier]

Vielen Dank Tino! Ja, bin erstaunt das er ohne Öldämpfer so gut funktioniert.

[@kazacorpora]

N I C E video , again , the wheels and tires are the same of "lunch box " ?

[@Matteomeier]

Thanks Kaza! Yes, these are the same!

[@MRCG68]

Der hammer Matteo ! affen geil die music und still passen total !! du bist der beste !

[@Matteomeier]

Vielen Dank! Deine Kommentare sind die Besten! 👍😊

Vielen Dank Maurice!

[@Jurgentaur]

Awesome video😁👍

[@Matteomeier]

Thank you! 👍☺️

[@2krcbackroads421]

Killer vid Matteo! Really cool rig...just got one for Christmas...I'm looking forward to the build. Are you using the stock friction shocks or did you upgrade?

[@Matteomeier]

Thanks! No, I used the stock shocks. Because of the six wheels the dampening is not so bad at all. Have fun with yours! 👍

[@2krcbackroads421]

Good to know. Thanks for the response, appreciate it!

[@stahlknecht7872]

Great!

[@miniRCSports]

nice video. excellent! best scene 2:20 :) thumbs up!

[@Matteomeier]

Thanks!

[@Codesempire]

That's pretty rocking Matteo! My boys loved the wheels! It reminded them of a Monster Truck! Thumbs up bro! ;-)

[@Matteomeier]

Thanks Jason! Always a pleasure to hear your kids liked it!

Wieder einmal ein Klasse Video👍

[@Matteomeier]

Vielen Dank!

[@davewarner8401]

Hi I purchased one of these a few months ago! Not built it as yet, wondered what you thought of it? Looks fun....is there anything you would change? Cheers dave

[@Matteomeier]

Yes, it's a lot of fun to drive. A bit more power would be a good upgrade, a tuning brushed motor or a moderate 2s brushless setup would be fine. This in combination with ball bearings would be perfect.

[@samisrcwelt9169]

cool

[@Matteomeier]

Danke Sämi!

[@JoeOvercoat]

That looks hella' fun. :)

[@Matteomeier]

Yes it is! Thanks! 👍

[@bb-ballistics1706]

#F,N send it! Great production value and driving. Is she stock?

[@Matteomeier]

Thanks! Yes, it's stock.

[@pongignacio6705]

nice video!

[@Matteomeier]

Thank you!

[@uncletom1971]

Matteo. I have a little problem. My Konghead is ready and running, but I still haven't properly cut out the body because I don't know how to cut out those curvy little details with the scissors. There are several places, like the front bumper sides and the exhaust pipe rounded notch, where the scissors just cannot reach. May I ask how you did your Konghead body? What tools are you using?

[@Matteomeier]

Hi Tomas Yes, it's a little bit tricky there. I used a dremel for this, same as I do it in this video at 7:44 kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y3yzhXyBlr15a9E

[@uncletom1971]

I see. Very good, thank you. I will see what I have, I have a dremel somewhere...

[@PaulDoodes]

Did someone accidentally click 'thumbs down'?

[@Matteomeier]

Not everyone likes this kind of stuff, but this is no problem...

[@fredtedstedman]

8 did ! can't please everyone ?

[@mikeymike3240]

Hi Matteo, niiiiiice konghead. 😀 👍 👍 👍

[@Matteomeier]

Thanks Mike! 😊

[@Tupi68]

Nice - den bauen wir auch gerade. Ist das noch mit dem Standardmotor ? Grüßle...

[@Matteomeier]

Ja, in dem Video ist er noch wie er aus der box kommt! 👍😊

[@maxx3543]

Nice Video 👍

[@Matteomeier]

Thanks Sven!

[@tehbluemuppetz6363]

Great video! How are you able to film and control the truck at the same time? You must have more arms than me!

[@Matteomeier]

LOL, no I'm not a mutant... 😂 With my pistol transmitter I can steering and control throttle in one hand. Throttle with my forefinger and steering with my thumb. Sometimes it needs a bit modifications on the transmitter, as you can see on my review of Traxxas TRX-4 (nearly at the end of the video) kzbin.info/www/bejne/mpuZfHV8gZeBgdU

[@tehbluemuppetz6363]

Matteo's RC Movies Great tips, thanks!

[@joshgrahamnz]

Great vid! Tell me - are you driving and filming at the same time?

[@Matteomeier]

Thanks Josh! Yes, exactly, do everything alone.

[@willi19671]

Hi Matteo ! Wie immer super super Video von Dir ! Sag mal , ist die letzte Hinterachse lenkbar ? Oder sieht das nur so aus ? Viele Grüße in die schöne Schweiz !

[@Matteomeier]

Danke Willi! Ja die Hinterachse lenkt auch. Schön ist das alle Teile die dafür benötigt werden im Baukasten enthalten sind. Man braucht nur ein zweites Servo dafür. Und der Nutzen ist enorm!

[@tom4]

excellent !! it seems pretty fast for a stock set up. Do you run it on lipo ? seems fun, could be a beach project.

[@Matteomeier]

Thanks Tom! Yes, run it on 2s lipo. A bit more power would be good, maybe I'll try a tuned brushed motor.

[@tom4]

Matteo's RC Movies do you think it could support a small brushless, like a 13T ?

[@Matteomeier]

Yes, I think a moderate 2s brushless setup runs also. But then I would recommend to install ball bearings.

[@tom4]

Matteo's RC Movies I always do, since the day I melted a gearcase on a blitzer beetle....

[@barrabran]

awesome video, how do you get your shots?

[@Matteomeier]

Thanks Brandon! Camera on a stick, hold it down and run beside the car... 👍

[@scalebuildersguild]

Wonderful Matteo! What did you think of this model? It looks like a lot of fun!

[@Matteomeier]

Thank you! Yes, it's big fun to drive, a bit more power would be better, maybee with a tuning brushed motor... or a moderate brushless setup.

[@MrDrakePrice]

could always run two batteries, I had my old clods setup that way.

[@filipgruner4255]

It looks like nice toy! :-) The slow motioned flying 6x6 monster makes my day today! :-D Nice video Matteo.

[@Matteomeier]

Thanks Filip! Yes, also older guys playing sometimes with toys! 😂👍

[@Dario917]

Ciao Matteo! Che videocamera usi per le riprese on Board?

[@Matteomeier]

Hey Dario, GoPro!

[@SWISSRCCHANNEL]

Über das Fahrzeuge sage ich nicht viel ;) Aber das Video ist top!

[@Matteomeier]

Danke Fabian! Was ist mit dem Fahrzeug? Wollte bei dem nächsten mini Trucker Treffen damit auftauchen und mal für ein bisschen Action sorgen auf der Strecke! 😂😂

[@qpidrc9454]

Nice

[@Matteomeier]

Thanks!

[@laurentludres]

Belle vidéo. As tu prévu de lui ajouter des options? Si oui lesquelles?

[@Matteomeier]

Merci! Un motor avec un peu plus de force serait bien. Et des roulements a billes aussi.

[@laurentludres]

Matteo's RC Movies moteur brushless ou brushed ?

[@fredtedstedman]

Hi Matteo , wouldn't this chassis make a good Armoured Personnel Carrier 6X6 ? Guns Camo armour fuel cans etc ?

[@Matteomeier]

Yes, I think this would be a great truck. With military tires....
