Tamiya Blackfoot Ad "Backyard Refresh"

Backyard re-do of the classic Tamiya Blackfoot Ad. Took it easy on the truck but got some decent footage for the video. Such a beautiful example of an 80's classic! Truck is a re-release and is all stock except ball bearings and a ball differential. Truck is not mine, but I did repair the cracked body, paint it, and apply the decals. Special thanks to Aaron for trusting me with this awesome RC.

This one is not mine...I painted it and repaired the cracked shell for a friend. Couldn't resist a quick run! Always thought they were neat years ago....

I think you've ran this truck more that i have!

[@arkyrc]

Give it a whirl!! It runs great.

Is the best truck to purchase? If you are looking to get your kids into r c cars, they will have a ball with it

The Blackfoot is a great RC. The gearbox can be a bit troublesome with the dog bone axles, but as long as the suspension travel is adjusted this shouldn't be an issue. It's a great classic RC!

@@arkyrc When I bought that 1 I bought a extra one just to have extra parts. I do that with all my RC cars. I also have r c boats too
