Turnigy 1/10 2WD Desert Buggy

Literally straight out of the box, I threw a 2S 5000 20C in and had at it.

First impressions are that the spur gear could do with being tougher (and rounder), also the suspension needs softer oil for dirt racing.

Thanks to Russell for filming.

what is the special battery plug on this? Common to USA are deans or tamiya. This appears to be neither.

@cam94z28 It's an XT-60. Common on Hobbyking Stuff and IMO better than Deans, Tamiya are only good for welding themselves together.

Hobby king coment on this is why im watching :P

[MSargeNZ]

@SuperWilliam013 Hobbyking commented on this video? Where?

[wickedstuffy]

Yeah, a bit on the stiff side. Easy fix tho. Do you think the original spur gear from kyosho would be better maby?

[MSargeNZ]

@wickedstuffy The Kyosho spur is a drop in fit, I also changed the slipper pads as the Kyosho ones seem to be of a better material.

how does the car handle to be a 2wd buggy? PLZ REPLY

[dhonda200]

wow that handles pretty good for a stock car out of the box! looks like all u need is some lighter oil for the shocks and its perfect!

[MrSpinalColumn]

For $120 it seems pretty bloody good to me. My hpi's would munch it up but they'd want to considering the price difference.

@Shev80 Well I have one coming, nobody else seemed to want one . . . or their wives wouldn't let them get "another toy car"? LOL - when will they learn not to ask?

[Shev80]

@russelleden1 lol, I wondered if you guys had one on order! Can't go wrong with the price.
