The Nitro Powered Yusa Project Buggy



Of course we needed a nitro powered buggy control for our little experiment. Just to assure I didn't have any screamers in the group complaining that I used some under powered mill, I installed a beast of a motor.

Obviously a .21 is the standard buggy, but I used a factory .26 Hot Bodies motor to give the Nitro version quite a bit more extra power and HP. Some will notice I swapped out the spin to start adapter for a pull start. No, I am not a masochist, the mill turns over pretty easily and I hate caring around a spin start unit or starter box everywhere I go. I found a Sportwerks Buggy body on clearance for around $10 and made the modifications needed to make it fit. The steering servo was the same Tower Hobbies eBay special that was installed on the other buggies and a Hot Bodies unit takes care of throttle and braking duties.
