Hey Phil, awesome content and I do consider you a mentor! I just beat your X-Rider Flamingo speed. My video is scheduled to release on Thanksgiving 11/23/2023.
Hi great video.... 😃.. I'm doing the same conversion did you have to mod the holes in the motor mount to fit the motor in video description? Also did you have to make the hole in the pinion bigger as the stock one is to small..... I've ordered the metal pinion and spur.... Did the metal pinion fit the new motor?
hello tomley, would you have made a disassembly video to change the original motor and original variator, if not I think it would be necessary to do one to show what it is necessary to disassemble the fastest to reach the motor and variator compartment thank you for your answer
How can I change my back wheels? The flamingo wheels are something I never seen before it's round with a pen I like to change it to hex so I can have other options for wheels.
Wheelbase is unfortunately too short to drift. Bet you could get it sideways with a drift tire up front, but then it would be like driving on ice🤣. Looks like a lot of fun.
@@TomleyRC is the stock receiver and speed controller aio...... Can you just replace the receiver with a dumbo rc gyro one? There only seems to be one connection on the stock esc receiver... When I pull it out the steering stops working... Do I have to replace the esc to use a different receiver?... Great video 😎
Fun and enjoyable video as always. I'll admit I wasn't sure if I liked or hated the look of it but seeing it brushless and flying around I'm starting to like it a little more,lol. I like the scale motor detail,looks really good as well. I gotta ask,did I see just the OG Tamiya hilux cab on the top of your shelf at the beginning of your video? Are you restoring the chassis or something?
Good Spot Jon. I recorded some running footage yesterday of the Hilux. Hopefully have a video up by the end of the week. Body was off as I was sorting the electronics 👍
LITTLE BEAST!! I really have enjoyed mine. Definitely not a speed demon but its high on the "Smile" scale!! Great Video
It's surprising how stable it is with 3 wheels and that wheelbase.
Yes, handles very well for a 3 wheeler... well, if it didn't have the metal 'bash' bar it wouldn't lol
That's one nutty little vehicle....a Tamiya Comical gone wrong.
haha yeah...
Very cool indeed! Great little jumper.
Thanks dude
Nice drifting
Well not sure you can call it Drifting. But thanks all the same 😎
Awesome! I don't know how I missed this little series first time round. It looks like a hoot and pretty unusual too. Thumbs up from me!

Thanks mate
Looks like a real animal bro!! Shouting!! Yeaah!! Looks and sounds great!! Have a nice weekend!!
Thanks mate. You too....
Wonder what it would do with bigger tyres on the back ???
it would wheelie..lol
Faster...but probably not as easy to control lol

Is the figure the churchill dog with a helmet on 😂
That lil thing looks crazy!
I really like the look of the engine and exhaust, nice touch.
haha yeah... Yeah, it comes all black, so painted it to look more 'real'
@@TomleyRC its looks really nice 👍
What front tire are you using?
Stock

AliExpress sell these for £83 are they same spec as uk bought?

che combo hai montato?
Cool Ive been thinking about getting one of these
Very cool little things. ATees do one with all Metal gears out the box
I think it's great ! What a little rocket . But far to much weight towards the rear for it to drift haha .
Yeah...she's no Drifter!
Love these things, a great laugh 🙂
I noticed your exhaust is on upside down though, not that it matters much lol
It’s more aerodynamic that way haha
@@TomleyRC haha fair enough! 🤣🤣
Soooo cool love it
great video my friend, like it)

Yes... not a drifter lol
Great vid fast Lil thing would like to c if it could take the 3s
I think I need a different ESC for that, but might try.
Lots off fun. I bet it would drift with a gyro 😁
It has a Gyro in this video 😉

@@TomleyRC Oh ok gotcha. Sounds good,glad to see that you're actually gonna run it and enjoy it like it's meant to be 😎👍
👍🏻 😊 👌🏻 Wow cool
Turned into a drift trike
Well.... tried lol
yup, weight distribution isn't good for drifting... but what a rocket!
Yeah, I took the wheels to give it a try, but thought it would be pretty bad!
😂😂😂😂 THATS AWESOME
Cool
I just gave my wife the gotta have it look or I will die and pretty sure her eyes rolled back twice 😂
hahahaha
Beware that esc will blow up on 3s
Yeah... I don't think it's made for 3s
x ridre 60a quikrun + tp power 2020 7050kv💣💣💣
Bajaj....jahhahhahhahha....top
lol it has a bobblehead
Yes lol
Piggin Ape I think pronounced 'ah-pay'?
Oops Piaggio not Piggin flipping autocorrect.
Yep, and it means "bee" in Italian.
It's cool until you realise it won't jump or go off road and flips easily...
Have you seen my Skatepark video of this jumping? Also... it's actually really hard to flip over. Cool little thing, but not a 'Basher'
@@TomleyRC yeah I think so
It's not really my thing it's not fast or big strong nor does it handle well
Still a cool rig tho
queque c est nul comme trisicle cest mieux une video avec 1 x-rider mars avec esc quikrin 60a sans ventilateur
