Really like your long style of detailed videos, prefer to short more snazzy videos on other channels. Keep up the great work. UK fan here.

Appreciate that. I always prefer some detail in the vids I watch. I always try to remember that my channel is supposed to be a documentary for me to watch decades from now. I want to be able to relive these experiences and bring along anyone who is interested.

Hey Buddy, great vid and perfect timing indeed.... My buddy paid a little extra in shipping to get his Dirt Master from Japan. It arrived yesterday and hes dropping it off at my house today. Going to do an unbox... and try to get the video out asap. Thanks for the video as reference....

Great video Keith as always, it's always fantastic to see a buggy built from NIB that most of your viewers will never come across. However the star of the show was (I'm assuming) your son 🤣.

The Kyosho shocks have always been a really great piece of kit, IMO. The old Platinum spec units from the late 80's were about as good as I've ever seen.

I have only built a rere Kyosho Beetle but I have the say that Kyosho chassis are a pleasure to build. That's one sweet looking chassis so far. Look forward to seeing it done . It would be interesting to see how the new Dirt Master is like compared to what it's based on . P.s. sorry if I was making too much noise at 17.21 Keith , you told me off so I sat quietly 🤣🤣🤣🤣

I remember from back in the day my local hobby shop was owned by a Kyosho fan. I was more into Tamiya and every year he would give me a big glossy Kyosho catalogue pretty much only for the retailers to use with all these amazing photos of cars, machinery planes and helicopters etc. After about four years I gave in and bought a Javelin. I still have the catalogue and the Javelin. Great build mate.

I have one of these. I bought it while I was living in Japan 2010-ish I think. It had already been built, I think it might have been a shop display model or something, cause it hadn't been run. Mine has what I think are hop up shock bodies, they are darker which I think is teflon. I also have an RB TypeR (which I think you mentioned at the end of this vid). The tub chassis on those is exactly the same as this buggy (RB5). I have run my RB5 a bit, it's a very good buggy, handles well, doesn't turn in as well as a B4 out of the box, but that can be tuned in. This car was very much a contemporary of the B4, or at least the B4's later years. The RB TypeR is more like the B3. I think the Dirt Master will be pretty good considering it is based on this buggy.

Just seen a video on the Dirt Master, I'm not really impressed with it, majority of it is plastic. Your RB5 is a far better model.

They based it off the rb5 but left the quality out. They are making profit on a $200 model. Chances are, it isn’t the best.
