- Опубліковано 23 січ 2024
- The DT-02 Chassis has been used for many iconic Tamiya buggies, trucks, and sand roving machines for almost 20 years now. It's a staple in the Tamiya lineup of RC's, and great for a beginner to learn how to RC, and even greater for experienced enthusiasts looking for a good time with RC.
In today's video, we'll unbox, build, modify and talk about all the radness that is the DT-02 Holiday Buggy.

"Ribbed, for everyone's pleasure"!!! 🤣🤣 Awesome!!! Hi Fil - I totally agree, this kit is simply a pleasure to put together and there are so many hop-up options to add either during the build or at a later date. It performs really well and just looks so damn cool! Definitely a wonderful buggy to film, especially on a beach! Great video and tips right here, dude. Have a great day my friend! 😎👌👍
Iol some prefer spiked....so l have heard!😆
@@MadBeeRC OUCH!!! 🤣🤣
Thanks for watching, Mark. I'm gonna wait for some good weather up in Tofino, then I think the Holiday buggy needs to hit the big open beach and catch some sand air! 🌴💨💨💨
The Holiday buggy the 380 motor makes it perfect for kids to start with and easy upgrade route with the Hobbywing ESC. Even better if they want to learn to build one of the best kits to start with. It was my sons first build and then he did a TT02B and then lost interest. Pain not being able to paint the body, we are lucky because Daniel's was the rare red version with black wheels.
Part of my enjoys the challenge of things we're "not supposed to" paint... I thought about getting creative and seeing if I can mix up some good adhesion promoters and get paint to stick to this body... But I really do like the blue. So I think I'll leave it alone, and if I get the chance to grab another body, I will, and I'll try painting that one. 👊🏼
@@poorboysrc I hope you can get a body set, one thing annoying with Tamiya you can get some and others only the main part. Then once you price up the other parts required it works out too much.
Neat on the beach. That will be right at home.
You betcha! I might need to head north to find a nice long beach to blast away on. 🌴
This is such an underrated kit. Sooo many upgrades. Motors getting really warm is only draw back. Perfect kit to use set up sheets ,ride height ,and camber gauges, roll center, caster you name it.
We can all learn to use advanced pit tools together!
I know what your weekend plans are... haha. Fastest Holiday Buggy on planet Earth! Lol! 💨💨💨
@poorboysrc it's drying out today but cold. If it's nice, I'll get my hit shot on the track now you have your hotshot 2 out. Hope Mark is up to getting his out soon.
Great build. So much fun to drive.
Thanks for watching! 👊🏼
Thanks for the review and pointing out what’s needed for the 540 motor upgrade!
Glad you enjoyed the video. Thanks for commenting! 👊🏼
Love the holiday buggy Fil great job 👍
Thanks Mark! Hope you're having a great week pal. 🍻👊🏼
This will be great on the beach
I'm thinking Tofino for this little fella. 🏄♂️
This brings me back. My first RC car was a holiday buggy and now it has a castle creations sidewinder 3 and it’s a blast.
Woah, I bet it's a rocket with that Castle power in it! 💨💨💨
You find the coolest kits to build!
Haha, thanks pal. I just keep buying Tamiya goodness, it's amazing how many cars they have available.
One of my favorite RC’s I own
Nice, there's something special about inexpensive, fun RC's. 😀
Speed run with stock body!!!
Them tires daaaammnnn, the Sticky Icky..
Not a bad idea, Paul... A great speed run chassis option for sure! 💨💨💨
Awesome build bud! Those gear boxes can handle decent power! Definitely a great for any beginner out there. Looking forward to some beach action!
Thanks dude! I'm waiting for some good weather in Tofino, then imma head up there and get some epic beach shots with this bad boy!
Ahh the good ole tyre sniff test 😂 must-do before assembly.
Haha, absolutely! 😁👊🏼
Holiday Buggy! I need one...have so for just about ever. 😉
I am to understand that plastic can be heat treated very carefully with a torch (heated until the finish goes matte) so it will accept paint.
Everyone needs a little Holiday! Haha! So that's an interesting approach to prepping this body for paint. I've worked in autobody for almost 20 years, and I love a good "can I make paint stick to that" challenge... 😂
@@poorboysrc flame treating plastics as paint prep is a thing for sure! Challenge issued! 😉
@@canuckchuck8836 challenge accepted! Now to find a spare body... 😂
Man I’m so glad I found your channel it’s so much fun watching these builds!! So many cars I wish I had as a kid lol… fhe bill & ted “excellent” in your intro won me over hahaha or is that Wayne’s world?? Wow either way love it haha
Ah, that's wicked, dude! Glad you're here to enjoy the ride with us all. That's a Bill and Ted "Excellent" you hear me use. In fact, I use a few other Bill and Ted quotes, as well. They are the chosen ones and set the golden rule which I share at the end of all my videos: Be Excellent to Each Other"
@@poorboysrc couldn’t agree with you more Brother that’s the golden rule!
Ribbed is ok but can still slip around a bit!😮
Fun vid the DT-02 is a fantastic platform!
The Holiday Buggy is actually a bargain still a really decent kit for little money and of course looks super cool.
As long as it can still slide around, the buggy is happy! 🤣🤣🤣
@poorboysrc lol take it easy buddy.
@@MadBeeRC 🤣🤣🤣
Cars and kitties! 🏎💨
Haha, you said it! My furry apprentices! 🐈 😻 🐈⬛️
i like the holiday buggy, 540 motor and oil shocks its pretty good. There was a real vw kit car dune buggy called the stripper.
I just Googled the stripper, and even with my safe search off, the first thing I found was that old VW! Very cool!!! Now back to research... 😂😂😂
I had an original Sand Rover back in the early '80's. I replaced the kit 380 with a 540 and soon thereafter I called it the 'stripper' because as soon as the open top gearbox got a whiff of dust it stripped out all the plastic gear's in an instant.
😭
Hi Fil, bit late to comment but the bodyshell is made from polyethylene which is the same material as the 25 gallon blue drums that are used for holding fuel, oil, flammable liquids etc etc.
The gearbox in the Holiday Buggy is the same as the DT-03 seeing as the chassis is a DT-02 and like most Tamiya's, all the parts are interchangeable.
I placed a 4370kv (9t) in mine and it rips across the grass so maybe a speedrun challenge is coming soon.... 👍
Great info, pal. Thanks so much! And yeah, this platform would be an ideal speed run challenge car... Just sayin'... Lol!
Brushless and blitzer beetle tyres with a shock upgrade and bearings bags of fun and if ya willing to get blow torch out it can be painted broski 😊👊🏽
Yours looks so good! 😍
Great starter kit nice review I love blue and yellow / Ikea spec that's what I painted my 992 GT3 not a box art guy prefer custom.
The Ikea Porsche, you had to put it together and everything! Haha. Thanks for watching! 👊🏼
Looks like a nice easy build! I’m currently working on my first build which is a grasshopper 2 and while not challenging after watching this video the holiday buggy does look a lot simpler. Hoping to add one to my collection soon!
GH2 is indeed a pretty easy assembly, and a fun chassis too! You'll love the new Holiday Buggy. The 4-wheel independent suspension will keep it planted a little better than the GH2. While I love all things Grasshopper, the light weight construction and solid rear axle means lots of bouncing around. 😁
@@poorboysrc yes, the build has gone fairly well so far so still a good choice for my first Tamiya kit. The holiday buggy might be the one I get to build with my son, I think he will be able to help build it more so than he has been able to with the gh 2
Ribbed! Joke has been around forever but ill laugh every time! Dt02 still one of my favorites! I just wish it had more gearing options.
It's pretty much a dad joke at this point, lol! But it still has a special place in our hearts, doesn't it? 😆😆😆
First!!! Man , nice paint on the driver!!
My man!!! 💪 -- Yeah the pre-painted driver face and hat is a nice bonus! 👌
That is actually a nice looking kit Fil. Perhaps oil filled shocks in the near future. Blitzer Beetle shocks will fit correct?
Yeah oil shocks would be the #1 upgrade I'd go for on this guy. I'm keeping the friction shocks on because I really Luke the look of a slightly bouncy cheap kit hitting jumps in slow motion, lol! 😆👊🏼
@@poorboysrc fair enough!
The Holiday Buggy is a very fun kit to build. Great stuff Fil!
Cheap, cheery, and it's even got a cool driver. Love it! 🤗
The bushings in the wheels tip makes perfect sense to me.
I live in Scotland and its quite often wet here - not constantly raining - but it always seems to be when youre planning on doing anything outside. 😡🤣
Isn't that the way it goes? Haha. Cheers! 🍻
Nice car. Didn't know the driver comes prepainted. Great unboxing and buildin video Fil. Nice kitty
Thanks Dirk! Have a great day, pal. 👊🏼
Ribbed rubbers.... Oooh er!! 😂 😅
A front and rear sniff...... that's a new one to me mate! 😂 😅 🤣
Speaking of that,
I was just servicing the shocks on my Fazer..... the wheels/tyres were on the worktop.... my Silvie cat walked straight over to them and sniffed them!!! 😸
Even the felines are endulging now!
I'm gutted I didn't get it on camera, would have made a great short!
👍 👍 👍
Aaaah, that would have been hilarious! Is this where our channels are headed? Just more cat videos? 😆😆😆
@@poorboysrc
Who knows matey?.....
But, in all honesty it really wouldn't be a bad thing!
The best friends I have ever had over the years have been of the feline variety.... and let's face it, just look at how many views a good cat video gets on you tube!!
Combine that with RC cars and we have a winner!
(have you seen the one by CKhobby shop where he is towing his big ginger moggy in a trailer with his rc car?..... Sooo funny!)
I was watching one yesterday of a cat sat in the bath watching Tom and jerry on an iPad! 😂 😸
They say cats take on their owners personality's...... I've already caught Silvie cat drinking my baileys, and now she's snorting Kyosho rubber!
Worried she may progress onto the hard stuff..... must keep her away from the Tamiyas! 😂 😅 🤣
👍 👍 👍
@@yodadarksideGreenHawksRC that's too funny, she wants to be just like you! But yeah, those cat videos seem to be a sire thing. Maybe it's time for a channel rebrand. 😂😂😂
@@poorboysrc
🤔........
Pussy boys RC?
Poor boys pussy?
Hmmm..... I can see this getting the wrong sort of attention bud, think we better stick with cars! 😉 👍 👍 👍
Smart how Tamiya re- released this classic on the dt-02 shiasis. Has lots of body options you can use. But that looks amazing. 👍thanks for sharing!!
Thanks for the comment! 👊🏼
I love the Holiday buggy! Some oil dampers and GT Tuned made mine a real ripper. The shocks really hold it back but it is still fun, just very hoppy!
I'm loving the bouncy shocks, but I can see them getting annoying, quick. Oil shocks might have to be in my future.
You could get a Red Ltd edition one as well.
I saw those on Tamiyabase recently, very cool! 🤩
Great video as always Fil. Really enjoying the content brother 🙌🏻 “Ribbed!” Had me in stitches dude 🤣😂
Hahaha, glad you got a chuckle out of it, Craig. 🤣🤣🤣
35 cents world wide😂 people living in Canada will get that one.
These are awesome kits and that body looks so good, I do wish we had this on the original chassis but i see why that did not happen.
Aha! I was hoping a Canadian would catch that joke. Cheers pal! 🍻
Very nice Fil. The DT-02 is a great chassis, especially with the tyres you get with the Holiday Buggy. Like you say a great kit to get into the hobby although there is a fair bit of painting of the bits and bobs that attach to the body and some slightly tricky stickers over the arches. If you have got a spare Sand Viper body then it makes a great dirt guard for the chassis but you need to customise it a bit so it fits under the cockpit piece. Have fun running it 😁👍
Yeah I think it took longer to paint the small bits and pieces that came with the kit, than it did to build the entire chassis. Funny how that goes, isn't it? 👊🏼
There are two things you can do to give the body another color,option one is dye the body,ore juse flexseal first
Good advice, thanks pal.
Sweet! I loved building and filming mine. Even though it is entry level. I sent mine through the air-so much fun! So I replaced the 380 can with a standard 540 silver can i had. But the pinion I had would not mesh with the spur. I ended up 3d printing a spacer and then it meshed perfectly. I wonder if the torque tuned shafts are longer or something? I think I explained it in my vid but not really sure lol.. Cheers!
Oh, interesting... I was worried the pinion wouldn't fit, but it did, with about 1mm of extra shaft to play with. Wait, that sounds inappropriate... 🤣🤣🤣
@@poorboysrc Bwahaha
I put a 15t hpi motor in mine and it totally rips
Oh yeah, I believe it! Those are good little motors. 👌
Sniffing glue and cracking "Ribbed" jokes. BEST BUILD VIDEO EVER!
Hahaha thanks pal! Glad you got a good laugh out of it! 😆😆😆
I just came across your channel. I had to subscribe. I have their dune buggy, the Sand Rover. I set it up to match my real Manx.
@@SnoMoJoe1 right on, thanks for subbing, my man! 🍻
Just put the dt03 oil cva shocks on mine.Very smooth,but does drop the ride height a little,so ive put in a few spacers to stiffen a little.
Did you get them to fit well up front? I was wondering how they'd fit, given the shock goes through the upper a-arm.
@poorboysrc
Yes they have fit on fine.Ride nice and smooth now.I was going to follow the manual,and get the 2 sets it said,but I asked Mark Bryan and he said to get the dt03 ones.They just fit in exactly as the standard springs did.
@@iancadwallender9779 Mark's the man! Good advice, thanks for letting me know. I am curious what it'll ride like with the stock shocks, so I'm going to start there and upgrade down the line. Cheers!
Nice work! I think this kit looks nice except for the holes in the front of the body where the front shocks stick through. It looks kinda goofy. Tamiya should have put a little more thought into it.
Yeah I think that's the issue when one chassis gets used with so many different body configurations. 🤔
Always loved the looks of the holiday buggy 😍 is it necessary to paint the body accessories? Did you use TS-paint?
Yeah, all the accessories need to be hand painted. I used Tamiya XF Acrylic hand paints. 👍🏻
Why is it called "holiday"?
Not sure... My money is that it's just a funny Tamiya name. I think the names can get goofy in translation. 😆
Love the Holiday Buggy! Do you have a Durga or Baldre you can sell me?
Holiday Buggy is so boss! Check your other message, I'll sell you my Durga. Poorboysrc78@gmail.com
awesome little kit there! perhaps i might buy one of them for my nephew on his birthday and help him along the way since my brother isn't very mechanically gifted and can't even make toast without the fire alarm going off. would you recommend it to someone turning 12? or maybe wait until a little older for this particular build. cheers! and "Hello Kitty."
Can't make toast... lol! Sounds like my older sister. 🤣
Back to the kit, I think this is the perfect kit for a fella that age to get started. The 380 motor will keep him out of trouble as he learns to drive it. There's tons of hop ups available, so he can modify it as he gets more comfortable driving it. It's a great first RC! 👌🍻
@@poorboysrc cheers and make sure you buy the correct "protection" for when you and the wife have the "love vibes" going on in the bedroom. only because..you never know.
@@garykee1 hahaha, appreciate the advice, brother. I'm all over it! 😂😂😂
Almost looks like a falcon chassis, no?
Very close, hey? I'm pretty sure they're a little different, but I'd have to do a side by sode to compare. 🤗
What the motor plate( motor mount) used for 540 motor? Link to buy pls. If use brushless motor 3300kv 35 size - what motor plate will fit? What pinion better use?
@933pilgrim I didn't need a special motor mount. The 540 came with the kit and dropped right in. A 3300kv bl motor should work just fine. Use the standard kit pinion and you're fine. 👌
"Ribbed, for everyone's pleasure"!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hahahaha, you liked that one, eh? 😂🍻
Speed challenge?
Hahaha maaaayyybeeee... 😄
Was your driver pre painted?
Yep, sure was. 👌
I had one of these decades ago lol great but could have done with a faster motor
These new generation Holiday Buggies are built quite tough, and can handle a lot more juice than the original.
@poorboysrc yeah it was nicad batteries and mechanical speed control, all changed now I bet. Had some good fun as a kid. I remember a RC car called a rough rider used to burn my buggy off easily, never did get round to fitting a bigger motor.
Guess you're a He-Man fan?
Sure am! Why do you ask?
@@poorboysrc The cat's name, Teela.
@@christianrambissoon1141 oh my God, hahaha. Sorry, I'm doing three things at once again! Lol!
Yeah Kevin Smith's He-Man on Netflix was amazing (have you seen it?). Teela starts off as the main character, and when we got our second cat, we wanted a female, it was my name to puck, as my wife chose our first cat's name. I wanted her to have a strong name, and I was watching He-Man at the time, so it just clicked. Teela it is. Haha.
She's not much of a warrior princess, more of a cuddle puddle mess, but we love her anyway. ❤️ 😂
@@poorboysrc Hahahah. I haven't seen it, will defs check it out!
@@christianrambissoon1141 oh well if you're a fan of He-Man, you're not gonna want to miss it. It's so well done!!! 💪
HAHAHAHA! Ribbed. Just don't grab the spiked by accident.
Hahahaha, OUCH!!! 😆😂
LMAO the ribbed joked. I was taking a drink and about choked from laughing. I wasn't expecting it
Haha, I'll get ya next time! 😉 🍻
