how reliable are they, if they get treaten hard?^^ taken out every weekend.. no matter, if snow or 30°C outside, mud or sand?^^ do some parts break often?
I did a deal where I traded my Nitro setup for the Baja... so far, I love this thing. Its a little different getting used to the size of it. BUT I AM HOOKED!!!
man you shouldnt hold back your ideas on just baja's! do other cars! make your own car conversion line!!!!! youl be rich! btw: baja racer on 3:15 is the nicest in my opinion.
PS: you would make big bucks if the next car you do is a savage! i would buy the future and baja bug kits for a savage!
thanks. I just bought a Slayer 3.3 and Im planning a old school Trophy Truck body for it now. Look up Ford F 2000 and see what I hope it will look like.
Anyone can buy a car from the LHS or mail order, apply a few stickers and make a movie... You're way out ahead of the crowd with both cool innovations and filming / editing. GREAT job.
Thanks alot. The baja 5b is a great platform for making all kinds of different bodies. When they first came out, no one made any bodies at all for the car, so I decided to make my own. Now its turned into a money making business. I sell my Ratrod kit on Daves Discount Motors website in the upgrades section. when I started I never thought it would turn into a business.
Thanks alot. I now make my bodies out of lexan. I make a mold out of mdf wood then vacuum form lexan over it on my homeade vacuum form machine. My Camaro is carved out of foam then covered in automotive bondo. The Corvette is also foam covered in bondo. I also used corrigated plastic sign sheets from home depot. Like for sale signs you see in yards. If you have any questions and want some ideas let me know. Its really not that hard to come up with something cool for your car.
cheers man thats a massive help and what i was hoping to hear... i want to make a charger body for my truggy as nobody sells scaled down versions of real car bodies and i had ideas of how i could do it. once again thanks and once again your vids and bodies are awsome . SUBSCRIBED!!
dude you bodies for this thing are beyond( way the fuck beyond) expert when it comes to craftsmanship and detail i watched 1 vid about the making of them bravo 100/100
Yes, the ratrod was in sept 09 Readers Ride of the month. I make the Ratrod kit and sell it on Daves Discount Motors website. Its in the baja 5b upgrades section.
Check out "outfrontframes" videos. he races nitros with his baja and beats everything nitro and brushless electric that he races. It also depends on how tricked out your baja is. Stock ones are fast but you can do some sick upgrades to them to make them fast as hell. In top end speeds nitros and electrics will have an advantage. It just depends on what kind of race. Tight tracks are not good for the baja, you need big tracks for the bajas to be happy.
Hey man, just a question how hard is the maintainance of the baja? compared to nitro rc cars (MGT 8.0)? how hard is it to put the engine and the tubes and the clutch and all those connecting things? do you think its just as easy as nitro trucks? coz im thinkging of getting MGT 8.0 but if the baja is easy to repair then i'll get one! =D thanks!
but im interested in making somthing simalare for my dads baja becuase the plasic one aint cuting it. all kinds of shit gets into it with taht one. so i want to make a new one. is that made out of sheet metal? cuz that is what i was thinking.
I used sheet aluminum and a jig saw. make a body out of poster board how you like it then lay it down over the sheet metal then cut it out. Then clamp it to a table with a piece of wood over the line and bend it to shape. then just sand the edges smooth. its easy.
hey man! you are pretty good on doing your own bodies im very very impressed, are you making money out of them? if not you should start thinking of mass producing them and selling them im sure youll make loads of money out of it. keep up the good work.
Thanks. I would love to start selling some of them. It takes alot of work and money to start a business. Your product has to be perfect or they will destroy you on some of the forums.
WOW !!! niceeeeeeeeeee i have a baja also... reallly great !! ^_^ I notice that you use mostly onroad tyre... i planning to get pair for my baja also ~ so in ur opinions which one last LONGEST and how long ? :D thx ~~
I use Tarmac busters on the pavement. They last along time. Well the tread pattern goes fast but when the tire turns into a slick the fun starts. They last forever as slicks. I do endless burnouts and donuts.
I havent tried the hostile slick but I hear they are really good. Some people on the hpi baja 5b forum say they are better, but I have not tried them yet.
EVERYTHINGS GREAT, my friend happen to have the KM baja clone and it ROCKS man. i just happen to be focused on my revos now, i finished my E-storm a long time ago and i just finished my revo PLE all it needs is servos, receiver and a body. need to addd some touch ups with it soon when i am fiinished with my other two revos (Which im converting to electric)
thanks. you have to make time for fun. the willys coupe wheelies so good because its center of gravity is higher and the wheelie bar also put some weight on the back.
Nice, and you got one of those slick progams that keeps the pitch of the engines the smame even in slo-mo!(I like those roosting doughnuts too, u drive them as well as u build them.
thanks. Ive definitly got my moneys worth out of my bajas. Some say the baja is only made for the dirt but I say its perfect for both street and dirt. One thing to say about street driving, your baja doesnt break after one driving session. and with every new body, I got a new car.. its great!!!
nice vid there mate.
