There's a company called outerwears that make super fine micron dust covers for these cars but even then I wouldn't drive one these in dust, most people run them in open fields on grass or on pavement.
@@HaggardRC the point is that you don't end up with dirt in your engine and yeah they're expensive but they work and better than rebuilding the engine it's up to you what you do with your toys
@@HaggardRC good to hear! Always the way people moaning! Like my local park with a big field, row of houses full of old people moaning when im on the field
Cool buggy,Perhaps the shop doesn’t know how bad they are depends if they make them there. Point is customer feedback may help.Hope they watch your channel hey 👍
O lol I’m not sure how that got grass in it either it was in my bag or I boxed up One of the new ones I used I did check all of them charged so your still golden 😂
Hey mate. Great video. It is a shame of the quality of the parts that are made in 2024.👍always on the way inn. Wooo therapy time. Hope it drys up soon. You will see the Sunshine soon 😊🤙✌️
No not at all, the steering is just as good as you’d expect, it is a bit slow but most standard servos are. And it doesn’t roll easily either in my opinion. I assume yours does?
Rovans are almost an exact ripoff of the hpi baja, are the air filters interchangeable? A smear of grease on the base of the outer filter and some filter oil, maybe an outerwears cover and nothing should get past it.
Hiya nice video this shows us what not to buy lol keep um coming and iv started my own ch now lol keep it safe and treat people how you want to be treated Much Lov Nat-sav79
Any filter would have sucked in dirt in that fine dust. What you need is a quality outerwear
I wash my filters out in warm soapy water, rinse, dry, dip completely in oil, squeeze it out, job done.
Same as me, can’t do it with this one though.
Great video. Comprehensive and appreciate your experience in RC
Thank you :)
Thanks for the video. Yeah that air filter leaves some to me desired.

What’s the point in having an off road car on grass or pavement lol dust is much more fun! And those outawears are a fortune!

That's sweet buggy
Hope that the engine still good ha
Better than ever, a few weeks ago I found some tarmac road and it ran perfectly :) got moaned at by an Indian though 😂

@ggwoods5684 Ehh never mind mate depends how they are if they’re polite I’ll move on… if they’re rude I’ll stay lol.
@@HaggardRC yh thats 100% true!

That’s why I point things out in my videos instead of just ignoring the problems. Companies and shops take it as a bad thing though sadly lol.
Keep up the good videos, i love the shorty.

If i had the room for a 1/5th car very nice my friend
Yeah Futaba and Sanwa are great. Cant say anything against them
😊
Sounds like old age 😁
checkout PRIMAL RC. THAT'S THE U.S. 1/5 TH SCALE GUYS. I'M SURE THEY HAVE ONE THAT YOU NEED.

It’s been roasting hot here this week 😂
its best if you get a air filter cover / sock ?
Foam is not great for RC models, paper like majority of full size cars should be used
Great video
I always put pantyhose’s then the outerwear, but if you can’t get Outerwears try the pantyhose
I’ve got a question I purchased a longer version off this brand new today what’s the best 2 stroke to put in it
Don’t get caught up with all that just any 2-stroke oil will do. Stuff from the local garden Center will be fine.
What oil were you using on the filter? The more sticky the better.
Notoil Mx filter oil
do you find the steering poor on this and the buggy forever on its roof
No not at all, the steering is just as good as you’d expect, it is a bit slow but most standard servos are. And it doesn’t roll easily either in my opinion. I assume yours does?
@@HaggardRC yes my steering seems to be poor on all of my rovan bajas im thinking is it worth trying a 150kg servo from Ali .
@@theyorkshirelad. I’d say no. Aliexpress isn’t worth even thinking about. If you’re gonna buy a new servo get it from a real shop dude.
Rovans are almost an exact ripoff of the hpi baja, are the air filters interchangeable? A smear of grease on the base of the outer filter and some filter oil, maybe an outerwears cover and nothing should get past it.
I hadn’t thought about the HPI filters, good idea :)
Goodness your 5th buggy filter was terrible. I bet you could make one better.
Ah man to bad ,get your hot glue gun and and seal that foam good ,to the bottom
i had exstra cover over my 2 layer foam
