Gotta be loving that blue Joe....a very tasty build Joe

[Bazzokajoe]

used my exo for the first time this weekend

It looks so awesome bouncing around...

Although, It does love to grip roll... and the screws provided are shockingly poor... Snapped both the screws that hold the rear wing on cleanly... now i need to either buy a new cage or dig into this one to get the snapped pieces of screw out...

[Bazzokajoe]

Finally taken some decent outside photos of my EXO!

This should feature in the latest NLB video too, I'll pop a link in here once its available!

Joe grip roll, really... I call it bad driving .

Try using the brakes before you turn

Nice looking truck btw.

[Bazzokajoe]

New on roads:

 

Snapped screws from the wing

 

very poor quality... I'll be swapping out to some 12.9 hardware when i do my first full rebuild + upgrade

[hebby]

Dunno why yours snapped but my whole back end snapped before the screws :-/

[Bazzokajoe]

guess i got lucky then!

 

I've got Tbone front and rear coming for this in the next few weeks... hopefully i wont break any of the rear end...

Hi guys

 

Sorry for the need to revive this thread but I would like some help please...

I know these are discontinued, why the keep making vehicles and just letting them die 😢

 

Having bought two Turnigy Desert Buggies secondhand, and knowing that most parts from Turnigy SC and Kyosho Ultima DB fit as they share the same chassis, does anyone know of a body shell that fits these Desert Buggies that you can still buy today ?

Has anyone converted it with an Exo using its shell or anything else ?

 

I also need help with wheels, tires and motor.

My second buggy is a roller and need to set it up to race with my boy, 1st buggy is running standard 3300kv, but if you can advise on a change then please let me know, not expensive though aeh ..😉
