Carl is super excited about the New Schumacher LD3 which is a long way from where we started with our budget racing with the FTX Vantage and Ftx Comet.
A year of buggy racing and Carl still has not had a competitive car to race but he finally has his hands on the LD3M. Ideal for indoor carpet racing…
You guys asked for a more details build video so here it is part 2 of the build..
If you want to go for the stock version check it out rochesterrc.uk/schumacher-cou...
more info on the schumacher website www.racing-cars.com/
Massive thanks to Rochester RC, who are going to be helping us with the electrics for this amazing buggy. So if you want to get a LD3 use discount code: PopalongRC for a discount at the checkout : rochesterrc.uk/link/popalongrc

Std drive shafts are CVD type joints which give a lot of forward drive. UJ driveshafts are a different type of joint which doesn’t bind up during forward drive, and which allows the suspension to move more freely while powering forward. Upshot is with UJ there is better corner rotation indoors for carpet racing.

i don't know why you get Mark to build your cars up, that looks like a real tech assembly process and you're smashing it!! great job!

It has been a great build Mark takes a lot of pride in his builds and enjoys the process. I like the build but if there is editing to be done I would rather do that and mark then gets the building done so we can get our racing more …

I have come to the conclusion as to why I really like you videos. Videos for top driver's are good but always feel they are a bit detached for the club racer you guys definitely do connect with club racers who enjoy the driving and good banter and long my you both continue to do what you are doing 👏

Awesome looking car, man you should get some speed tips and an electric driver as your wrists must sore after tapping all those screws into new plastic. MIP tools are #1

Electric driver would have helped a lot

Looks like a superb build 👍 your upgraded rear driveshafts looked to be a bit shorter and the knuckle ( not sure what you call where the two join ) had quite bit more space for movement 🤷🏻‍♂️ When the RC cars/buggies are at the point you’ve got it too in the build that mechanical skeletal look is fantastic, it’s hardcore and not like that tut tut tut 😂 Great stuff Carl and cheers for sharing 👊

You don't need the 'special tool' to build Schumacher shocks, they have a flat on the bottom of the shaft to hold instead. That area never goes near the orings anyway. Trish has done a video on Schumacher shock building.

I noticed it after skipping the step but shocks are built now without using the tool..
