maybe this one is one of those cheap hong kong copies :) you will probable forget about this little bug when you are running the sand scorcher over some beautiful sunny beach somewhere in the world, JUST ENJOY DUDE!! and have fun.

I didn't have any problems with mine... Strange that yours has this "bug". Well, at least it's not too bad, I mean if it was the gearbox that didn't have any holes, that would be a real problem.

mine was ok . no mods

have you heard of a drill?

for $500 I'd expect some perfection specially if it doesn't even come build.

On the 1st production run that Tamiya produced of the re-release of the Sand Scorcher, they had a problem with this part. Tamiya has sent replacement parts for all effected kits. All stores that received 1st run kits will be getting the new part shortly.

Just got mine from rc mart, its just the same as yours.

The buggy champ i got from rc mart

is fine. strange.

Bad quality control, but i can live with

that.

Thanks Tamiya for the re-release.

Thanks for sharing this video, as you say, not a big deal, more annoying than anything, hopefully they sorted it pretty quick, I guess I will also find out soon when mine arrives :)

I hope they have it fixed by the release date,thx for the comments~

I am in the uk and the scorcher is not out here until the end of feb. I wonder if this has been sorted out , i'll soon find out.

[bnr344]

Good thinking but if you file the end of the down pipe ,the lengh of the pipe will be shortened .when you bend it to line up it might break'em.cuz it's the matter of bad hole position. thx for the comment!

[ric2000]

its better to file the end of the guard so that the holes line up
