Tamiya 1: 10 Radio Control Sand Viper 2WD Buggy DT 300058374 02

Product Information

You will need another long shaft, To fit this you will need to take of the rear gearbox section from the chassis. Remove the screw pin and then replace it with the suspension shaft. Again this shaft doesn't need any shimming. These components have been intelligently put together to ensure a low centre of gravity - centre mounted R/C unit and NiMH battery in the lightweight bathtub frame features. Full ball racing complement grooved front tyres and high performance off-road rear tyres for enhanced cornering and grip. Options and expansion

This is a nice easy job, just make sure you use a nice set of long nose pliers to ensure you can fit the E-Clip easily and it doesn't ping across the room when you try to fit it. The Tamiya Sand Viper is one of the newest releases on the DT-02 chassis. This 1/10 scale 2WD radio control off-road buggy kit continues in the vein of our successful Desert Gator buggy but will feature an all new body and wing shape together with dish type wheels (planned). The Tamiya Sand Viper radio control buggy has the Versatile and reliable DT-02 chassis featuring transverse mounted Type RS540 motor and 4-wheel double wishbone suspension. Full ball bearings ensure maximum efficiency and a long-life of dirt tearing action! First post here, so hello! I'm completely new to the world of RC bar having a few pre-built standard RC cars when I was a kid. Tamiya doesnt make a set to replace all of the screw pins, so after a bit of research I found the most cost effective way. So to do this you will need the following (Along with some shims) Drivetrain: Rear Wheel Drive ●Tread: (Front & Rear) 216mm/208mm ●Diff. Gear: 3-bevel diff. ●Steering Tie Rod: 2-piece

Now its time to replace the other screw pins with the shafts you have in the TL01 Stainless Steel Suspension Shaft Set.

The DT02 is a very strong car, however there are some things you can do to ensure you can hit the jumps hard without any worries So within a few minutes I had swapped the arms around giving me a 12mm longer wheelbase. The effect of this also means that there is more weight over the rear of the car, ensuring that it will be less keen to over-steer. After wanting to build something like a Team Associated B5M or B44.3 I decided it'll be more sensible to go for something like the Tamiya Hornet as I'm completely new to this so 1. don't want to spend too much yet and 2. don't know what I'm doing, so don't want to put myself off, or go wrong building something like the B44.3. I also like the idea of upgrading a cheaper car gradually. Is there one that is similarly priced or maybe a little higher that is a lot better quality tamiya? I am only looking for a tamiya kit.

The following describes how I took this entry level car to a competent club racer. There are a range of tips and guides that you can follow to modify your car. However you will need to file a little bit at the rear of the chassis to ensure that the suspension shaft doesn't rub against the main chassis tub. I'm not sure I agree with you. All images and video's I've found of (standard) Sand Vipers look the same as mine (wheels, suspension, body mount etc). But hey - it'll be fun cleaning it up and replacing/upgrading bits as I go We want to ensure a smooth delivery experience for you, and here are some key details to keep in mind about our service.

So when the Farnborough based buggy club SHRCCC decided to host 'The Tamiya DT02 challenge' it sparked a lot of interest on the Tamiya fan based forums. I fancied experiencing racing in a class where everyone had the same chassis, and where personal tuning and modifications were allowed so I entered the Mod class. Flat underside allows great skidding performance, while highly responsive suspension ensures excellent road holding on even the toughest surfaces. With so many different perspectives it can be hard to know where to start - a little like walking into a crowded pub. Sorry about that.Looks like the Sand Viper comes with ball bearings setup? Should I still be getting some rubber sealed ones?
