  • In this video I talk about the new "High Tower" front shock tower for the Tamiya Vanquish and VQS from rcEvoLogic. This tower is designed to help stop the front of the buggy bottoming out on the shocks and help give full suspension travel to the front end. In my experience the front of the VQS tends to bounce after a jump due to the shocks bottoming out. This shock tower should help eliminate that problem. Enjoy!

    I know I said this before when u built this VQS,but I'm going to say it again,that thing is by far the best looking VQS I've ever seen,it's a total work of art 👏

    Looks real nice this buggy!! Shocks probably smoother more upright.

    Thanks Mick for the great video!! Its a worthy upgrade, totally changes the dynamics of the front end. Also the sway bar gets engaged more in tight or high speed turns. And lets be honest it looks way more aggresive with strength and aesthetics to match!!
    cheers from Team rcEvoLogic

    It looks really cool and it is nice the full shock travel can be used now! It is nice to have both nice looking but also very functional parts available.

      Thanks Addam! Oh yeah, I'm sure it will land quite nicely after jumps now. rcEvoLogic has plans to make loads more parts to help address the weaknesses in a lot of Tamiya buggies. Should be great for out buggies, we can bash em harder! 😁👍

      G'day John. I think it might get pretty close with these rcEvoLogic parts. It will certainly handle differently with the new high front shock tower. Hoping it stops raining so I can get it out for a run. Thanks mate, all the best to you and your family too! 🙂👍

    I was going to put some sort of joke about those parts not rusting in peace, but I think I already did that one plenty... But when you held up that part in front of you, it matched the Megadeth logo so well it looked like it belonged in there! You should do a metal band tribute RC car someday, I know I will, someday, ha ha...
    On a more serious note, awesome seeing these aftermarket parts from small manufacturers, one of the best parts of this hobby!
    Have a great weekend there, mate!

    • @RCHobbyShed
      @RCHobbyShed  Рік тому

      Lol plus being alloy they shouldn't rust but Corrode In Peace just doesn't sound right 😂. Haha yes! I did notice that too, it does match.
      You know, I have been thinking that exact same thing. Naturally my first thought was a Slayer buggy or even a Lunch Box. The only reason I've not done it yet is I'd need to seriously work on my airbrushing skills... or at least develop some skills 😂. But YES, a metal themed car or too will happen!
      Oh it's just awesome to have people like rcEvoLogic working on parts for the hobby and even better that he's based in Australia. I hope his business really takes off as it's one step to bringing manufacturing back to Australia.
      Hope you have a great weekend too mate! 👍

      I'm a little scared to run it mainly because of the wheels, don't want to scratch them. I will get it out for a run though, probably on a footy oval. I'll set up some jumps though so we can see how the new tower works. Thanks mate! 👍

    Looks like a very nice upgrade. Will you do another running video to see if it improves performance? Or is the VQS a shelf queen now since it has all those beautiful parts on it?

    • @RCHobbyShed
      @RCHobbyShed  Рік тому +1

      They do look great and much stronger than standard. I will do a running video at some point when the rain eases. Probably not at the same location though, maybe on a grass oval but set up some jumps. Don't want to scratch up those Pargu wheels in the gravel. 😁👍
