Oh How Original Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 Those buggys are absolute crap... But I do rather like the cage idea... Hmmm, might be having to make a new cage for mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oh How Original Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 I was looking at one of these 2 weeks ago before everyone on the forum convinced me to get a KM Baja. I was struggling to find ANY spares or hop ups for it. It was the cheap price that got me. Another 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Garf Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 i would go for the km baja or a marder or the punisher 3 good cars to get into 1/5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Connor_scotland Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 It's extremely refreshing to see someone new to 5th scale like you are to still big up what they bought even though you've had a few problems with it. And this isn't meant in a sarcastic or patronizing way either, too many people buy them, rip a tyre or something and sell it so respect for that Cheers buddy. My issues were self inflicted. The reason I am so upbeat about them still is I called the shop spoke to the mechanic who was spot on, gave me some tips ect to help me fix her and here we are alive and well. haha.

norney hurtmore Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 (edited) racing against another yama buggy will probably be fun race against any other 1/5 scale will see you scouring ebay for an engine with a bit more oomph upgrading the engine before upgrading the rest of the car will leave you with a box of broken plastic parts assuming you have an alloy gear carrier (if your carrier is still plastic you can get a male and female balljoint to brace the shafts Edited July 9, 2012 by norney hurtmore Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel97 Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 I Bought one and its the worst rc petrol car iv had. I haven't even took it out for a good bashing yet. its about 3 weeks old and every time I go to take it out something is wrong with it. 1. Exhaust hadn't been finished properly so it leaks oil all over. 2. HT lead keeps coming off but did get it to stay on. 3.it had a washer missing behind the clutch shoes so they weren't engaging with the driven bell, says in the manual it should have one but it never. 4. steering servo horn stripped don't know how but it did and I cant find a replace part so I glued it back on. 5. Pull start has just came apart inside, screw has loosened off and its snapped the string and the spring coil has came out PLEASE STAY AWAY FROM THESE SH***Y NITROTEK CARS!

madmo Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 Hi mate I've got a Yama buggy it's a ok buggy if you never seen any other petrol buggy. But as soon as you compare it to a baja you seem how **** it is. Also because its not as popular as the hpi/km baja, parts are more expensive, I need 2 rear wheels now and there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oh How Original Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 he admits in his blurb that he is being paid to review this heap and moans that hpi wouldn't lmao I think he's a complete tool anyway! He absolutely irritates me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
