Tamiya Wild One Build Guide Part 2
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 вер 2024
- Hello and welcome to Part 2 of my build guide for the Tamiya Wild One Off Roader! In this video I go through the steps using parts from Parts bag B - steps 13 to 24. We mainly concentrate on building the gearbox, the fitting of and building the rear shocks and motor.
I have a little trouble with the rubber boots or gaitors that cover the drive shafts, but manage to find a solution.
I hope you enjoy it and join me in part 3 where we finish the Wild One.
Many thanks for the backing music provided by my awesome friend, Jack - cheers my bro! :)
Package arrived this morning! Just waiting the Tamiya RC Tool kit and bearing set to arrive now. Then I’ll build it up! Getting excited Mark, you’ve inspired me on this build👍🤓🇦🇺
Great news on the arrival, Paul! Always exciting to get a new kit. Those Tamiya tool kits are excellent, good choice. And of course the bearings are a no-brainer! I'm sure you are gonna love building this one, have fun, mate! :)
A really interesting Car, I've never seen this oil cap before!
Hi Sven! Yes, it really is a great kit to build. It's a very basic design, but seems to be very well thought-out. No, I have never seen an oil cap on a Tamiya gear case before - but I'm sure if you poured oil in there it would soon leak out again! :)
Most of the older models had something like that. Grasshopper gearbox (hornet/lunchbox/pumkin), I think the frog/Blackfoot used to also.
👍👍Looking awesome Mark!! Nice you used antiwear grease in the diff I did not do that when I made my FAV a long time ago I wish I did. Also for the rubber boot I just used some fishing line and tied it around with a knot and it worked great also.
Thanks, Steve - good idea about the fishing line, now why didn't I think of that - I have loads of it in the loft! All the best and keep safe my friend! :)
Starting to look like a Wild One 😊 Hmm, wonder what people used to do with those oil cap/holes in the gear boxes back then. The Hoppers got them too. Did any actually pour oil in there? ... And I think in reality you really like the ‘dissapointments’ cause it gives you a chance to be creative. I can feel your enthusiasm when speaking about solutions ☺️ And you always seem to find one. Great job, Mark! Best of weekends to you
Hi Mikael - yes, it is nearing completion now, but I'm really taking my time on this one, with a few weeks of lockdown to go (at least). I think if you ever put oil in the "oil hole" it would be all over the floor in seconds! Maybe Tamiya wanted to put "grease" on the red cap - but ran out of space! It would certainly be easy to apply a little more grease on the gears through that hole, now and then, perhaps that is what it's really for? The manual doesn't mention it.
Hehe - yes I do like something that needs solving (I'm a big crossword fan!) Thanks for the nice comment, all the best to you and yours, too. :)
@@MarkBryanRC Yeah, it's a nice little scale detail for sure. Uhh, not sure if it is okay I ask, but is Rob doing good and is he okay? At first I just thought he was busy with the house projects, but now he hasn't uploaded for 2-3 months. Hope you don't mind me asking. Just ignore the question, if you think it is inappropriate.
@@NordicRC Hi mate - of course it's OK to ask, we are all friends after all. But thanks for your good manners. Well, I have not heard from Rob in a few weeks, he was fit and well then. It seems that during this lockdown he has been staying up in Stoke - about 50 miles from where we live - with his sister who lives alone. So he has no access to his PC and limited phone and internet access. I'm sure he would find a way of contacting me if he needed anything. We are the best of friends and always there in times of need, that hasn't changed for 30 years! Thanks for the concern, I'll let Rob know you asked how he was when I next speak to him. All the best my good friend.
Mark Bryan RC Great to hear that he is good ☺️ Thank you so much, Mark.
@@NordicRC You are always welcome, Mikael. :)
Nice trick with the end of the calliper, never knew/thought of doing that as a way of measuring. Had and used callipers for years but missed that one somehow, cheers again!👍🤓🇦🇺
Hi Paul - yes I often use the bottom of the vernier - I think it's mainly for measuring the depth of holes? Anyway, it's always good to share tips and ideas. I'm sure you know a few tricks, too my friend! :)
Mark Bryan RC yeah have been sharing some stuff on some of the Facebook forums, but always happy to learn something new myself. I used to be an automotive spray painter did my ticket as a kid, so I have some experience there. Then a Nurse and then a Teacher. So I have a wide scope to draw from. But I really like to research thoroughly before I do things. I think my mental health condition amplified my need to find out the best thing or best way to do stuff. I think I’m probably borderline OCD since my injury. Certainly could be classed as OCD with my obsession collecting RC cars. 👍🤓🇦🇺
Wow mate, you have turned your hands to many things! How strange, I started as a telecoms engineer, moved into computer system management, then graphic design and finally I'm a support teacher! Injury? Hmmm - me too, (spinal fractures) changed my life and massive PTSD issues after. Not sure I'm OCD, just a bit strange!!! We have a lot in common, Paul! :)
Mark Bryan RC yeah, I think hobbies draw like minded people. The painting paid for me to go to University and get a Bachelor of Nursing, injured my knee, then my back (repeatedly) so I went into an office data management, I hated it, so I used my holidays, long service time owed took the year off went to Uni again and got a Diploma in Education. Then I went through some really bad bullying etc. and tried to change the 20 + years of management behaviour in the school but I was broken down and individually systematically crushed. All the systems supposedly preventing and supporting people in this predicament failed me dismally and I went into PTSD mode. The crazy thing is I’m able to handle myself pretty well, I can physically hold my own, but they were more than a match for a lone individual, they had done it so many times before. All I could do was wear what they threw, they had all the power, and you go to jail if you just smash the boss! 6 years later and I have finally settled legally, but it was a very rough 6 years. I’m on the mend especially after I was successful legally. It kind of vindicated me. But I have great support at home and am looking forward now!
I think you are right about hobbies and like minded people. The coincidences continue - I was sad to read about your problems at school. Touched a nerve, as I had a similar experience, although not quite to the extent of yours. I was destroyed in a similar way and struggled to recover for a very long time, but thankfully, like you I have fantastic support at home. Glad you got it sorted, you are a very strong person to have succeeded legally, I can imagine it was terribly difficult. The positive vibe at the end of the message is very reassuring. Onward and upward! All the very best to you my friend.
What a great kit I love the gear box simple but bulletproof I am not a big fan of the boots either bad frog experience lol I know I herd some of Jack's guitar poking through here and there your doing a great job still watching lol👍🏻🤘🏻😀✌🏻
Those shocks are magnificent to look at
Thanks very much, Brent! Yeah, this one is nice and simple, but effective, I hope! And yes, Jack was so kind to send me a couple of his tracks to use on my videos, I need to make a run vid with his music turned up loud for the duration! Glad you are still watching, thanks a ton brother! :)
Oh yes my friend, beautiful and very smooooooth! :P
Thumbs up coffee is ready time to sit back and enjoy 😉
Cheers mate - I think we were both enjoying coffee at the same time! I do like a fresh filter! Thanks for the supportive words, mate. Certainly this kit is made better by the quality parts, it all fits like a glove. Thanks for following along - stay safe, Kirk.
Mark Bryan RC your more then welcome Mark always enjoy your videos
Hi Mark, The red cage pops nicely. It's going to look great. You helped motivate me to start on a couple of painting projects for the micro drift and crawlers. I haven't built a kit in years. Will keep an eye out for Part 3 👍🏾
Thanks, Paul - yes, I think this is going to look really sweet when complete. I need to make a start on that bodywork! So painting for us both, very therapeutic I find! I enjoy the building almost as much as the running, that's why I keep buying Tamiyas. Keep safe my friend.
Afternoon mate 😁 Another great build vid. It's odd about those drive boots because I just checked on my FAV and they are pretty snug. It's so old that it's got the drive shafts and cups with hex shaped drives rather than dogbones so maybe they are a little bigger. Looks like your fix will solve it. Can't think of anything better because I was thinking cable ties until you showed it catching. Anyway it looks like it's keeping you amused through the lockdown. Tell you what that Impreza shell is keeping me busy. So many stickers. I'm sure it's the most stickers I've put onto one car. Nothing too tricky like the Lancia you did. Anyway it's nearly done and I'm going to do a little blog video about what I've been up to. Haven't done anything useful like take photos along the way so it will just be a bit of waffling. Need to get the gold wheels to complete the look. Anyway apart from that the guy from the brewery has just dropped off my 5l container so happy days. Tesco was mental yesterday with a big socially distanced queue outside so I drove straight out again. Got enough odds and sods to keep us going for a bit. I'm going to go on my allowable exercise bike ride in a minute so I will have earned a beer or two. Hope all is well with you and your family. Take it easy mate 😃
Evening, Sir! Thanks for the comment mate - yeah, IDK what's going on with those boots! Such a sloppy fit, my Monster Beetle was fine in 1986!!! The Impreza is a great body, and the stickers were easy compared to some I have done recently! Look forward to that blog video, I need some entertainment that's RC related as sick of the crap on tele! Ooh, at least you are still getting the essential supplies, sounds lovely, I am having to make do with Aldi beer! Not complaining though. Goodness knows I need a drink at the end of the day, it's all a bit crazy, ain't it? Yeah, you deserve a beer after exercise, it's the law in my house! Keep safe and have a good evening mate. :)
@@MarkBryanRC hello mate. How goes it today? Did you check out the Colin Furze channel on UA-cam? That will entertain you for a bit if you are bored of the TV and have run out of RC projects. I've just been fiddling about with the rc's today and haven't achieved a great deal. Subaru is looking good. Just need to sort out the lights. I thought with all this spare time I might get back into gaming so I've ordered an Xbox which will arrive tomorrow. Got a game that involves smashing cars about which can take the place of smashing my RC cars around. Other than that nothing doing. Going to do the allowable exercise in a bit so I've earned a beer. There is a bit of a pattern to my days isn't there? Hope you are enjoying the Aldi beers 😁
Looking good my friend.. Well done and thumbs up from me my friend
Many thanks Nick - all the thumbs are appreciated greatly! Hope all is good with you my friend. :)

Thanks Jeremy. Yeah, coming together nicely - it's like a bit of Tamiya therapy for me, building in the lockdown! I'm taking my time on this one. Thanks for watching and keep safe my friend. :)
Nice one Mark 👍🏻🤛🏻👍🏻
Thanks very much Paul, appreciated! :)
Hi Brother you have done a great build again with fantastic easy information 👍 I've not had a chance to do any Vids yet. I've just come off a 8 day stretch and am Knackered 😣 am off for 2 days so hopefully I might do a video tomorrow, really enjoyed this Build video Brother. Keep safe and Well 👍😍😎👍
Hello my awesome key-worker - Kudos to you my good friend, I have the top respect for you in these hard times, keeping the country ticking over! I hope you enjoy a well deserved rest - the videos can wait, we will still be here watching!

Brilliant idea on the drive boots mark I really like the shocks to on this build it’s nice to see Metal upgrades as standard tamiya definitely did a brilliant job on designing this one with all the metal parts brilliant part to mark looking forward to part 3 bro mega thumbs up as always bro 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks Kirkster! 👍
Fantstic build as usual my friend! I'm more and more impressed by this build and the cool ideas Tamiya had. Pretty cool dust cover for the drive shafts. Zip ties and the wire are a great idea! Stay safe buddy and keep it coming 👍
Thank you Charlie! Yeah, this one is coming along well, as you say, good design ideas from Tamiya, even if it is an old design, but I think that is the charm of this kit. Nearly done now, just doing the sticker job! All the best to you too, my friend. :)
That build is coming along nicely. Great job and thanks again for doing these videos
Thanks very much, pal. It's a very relaxing way to pass the time while in lock-down! Thanks for watching and your comments, keep safe!
Looking very nice again👍👍
love to se it👍👍
Thank you very much, Fons, it is always great to see your comments, I really appreciate the support you give. Have a great weekend my friend! :)
@@MarkBryanRC
U2 my friend, have a great weekend👍👍😎😎
Of COURSE I bloody well enjoyed it Mate!!! 😁😁😁
I'm getting really close to breaking some serious House Rules.... Unless those prices come down to something more NORMAL. 😲 No chance in Hell I'm paying $500 for one though!😡😠
I promise you that if some things change, OUR COLLAB VIDEO WILL BE WITH WILD ONES!!
Love the Boot trick! If I encountered that, I would also want to clamp them down, but I would have used Zip Ties on both ends, GRINDING away some of those ribs. 😲😜
I'm so in LUST with this Buggy, it's unhealthy!!
Cheers and stay SAFE! 😁 I heard that Boris Johnson is out of ICU, and may be recovering!! Good luck!
Carmine ✈🚂🚙
Cheers dude! Glad you stayed til the end, not many do! No one in their right mind would pay those insane prices, well I hope not! It would be a pleasure to do a collab with the Wild One when you get it, which you will. I did think of grinding those ribs, but then thought better of it, no need to cause any weak points. Boris is recovering well, we still have our PM! Thank god! All the best, mate! :))
You're right Mate.... WHEN I get mine!!! 😁 It will be within 2 weeks or after Inheritance... but I've wanted one for too long.
..... MAYBE those prices will drop when they realise that nobody is buying them. At least I HOPE not!
That twisted wire trick is bloody brilliant, and I have to remember that!
STILL flabbergasts me, how many can't watch an entire SHORT Video. 😡😖
I'm so glad Boris is recovering!! 👍👍 Didn't his daughter or some family member also get it?
Cheers 🍻 Mate!!
Yeah, I'm sure the prices will drop soon. Hang in there! Not sure about Boris' daughter, all the news we seem to get is the state of chaos in NY!!! OMG! Keep safe bro! :)
Yeah Bud, New York is CHAOS personified!!!
NYC, Philadelphia and Boston are our only three Cities like London, and your major Metropolis Cities....
OLD, and DENSELY Populated. The Virus literally spread like Wildfire in NYC...
Boston, Philadelphia, even Chicago and Detroit, shut down early enough.
Los Angeles, like us in Arizona, are MOSTLY spared... For reasons were just starting to understand.
Non Dense Population, Newer Buildings, DRY Air and high Temperatures!! Apparently the Virus hates all those things.
We're NOT in the Clear! But we've got a much better chance. "Only" 120 cases here in Tucson (population 1.2 Million) and 1700 cases in Los Angeles (population 19.2 Million).
..... In case the News hasn't spread some of the not so grim news.
Prices HAVE dropped a bit!!! 😁😁😁 It's more of a MAYBE now...
And, the Boss wants a new Phone - so now my budget went UP to $700!!!! 👌😎😁😁😁😁😁😁
Please stay SAFE and be careful. Your area is far more rife than mine! We're not taking any advantage for granted though.
@@CarminesRCTipsandTricks Thanks for the info, dude. Yes, what a cluster of... this really is. Good to know you are "safER"" in your area, it makes sense, your explanation.
And the good news is great news! We will see what happens, as always, fingers crossed for you mate. Staying as safe as can be - take care, Carmine.
nice trick at 9:00 minute !
Thanks, ale! Yeah, all it needed was a little bent wire, I also read that you can wrap and tie fishing line around to solve the problem - thanks Steve from Shen RC! :)
Been watching a few of your videos whilst being on lockdown and relly enjoying them. Not got one of my own RC cars as of yet as have 5 young kids and need one that will be good for them to us as well was thinking the DT-03 what do you think?
Hi Mathew - thanks for the comment, and for watching my videos - it's really nice to know that you enjoyed them. The DT-03 is a brilliant first choice. It's a nice and easy build, plus it handles well and is very robust! Whatever you choose, I wish you lots of fun with the RC hobby! :)
now to hibernate until part 3
Haha! Nice one mukka! :P
Hi mark . So I’m building this bit on my kit and 1) I managed to tear a dust boot …. 🙄😂 did you find they actually do anything? And 2) no motor dust cover cardboard disc …. Did you find any problems with dust entering the gears ? Thanks mate 👍
Hi 👋 Dom. Yeah the boots do keep the drive train nice and clean when fitted properly. And no, I haven't had any issues with dirt getting in on either of my wild ones. 😜 All the best my good friend 😎 👍
@@MarkBryanRC thanks mate . That’s good to hear. I’ve got 1 and 3/4 boots fitted as I tore the end off one 😬🙄😂😂😂👍
👍
Cheers mate - keep safe and well and enjoy the weekend my friend! :)
