need to know make and model

[clint21573]

need to know make and model of this rc,any help would be appreciated

it has hot bodies servos,hs1 and hs2,it has some kind of pointy thing down in the purple looking cylinder head and it has 26 wrote on it

Pretty sure the engine is a hot bodies powerhouse 26. A buddy of mine had one in his bb t-maxx 10+ years ago.

I think it's a Hot Bodies Dirt Demon. Well, not much thinking about it. It is a HB Dirt Demon:

doesn't sound very promising for parts if you read the comments below the truck discription in that link Olds posted

 

[olds97_lss]

Yeah, it's old... and wasn't an overly good rig to have 10 years ago.

Well, I'd start by pulling the engine, taking it apart and cleaning it out really with with DA and relubing it with ARO. This includes taking the carb apart. Put it back together and see if you have compression.

Then, you need:
fuel
fuel line
transmitter/receiver
receiver battery & charger
air filter
glow plug(s)
glow heater & charger

Can go with cheaper radio if you want and a cheaper glow warmer. But the ones I listed are decent. You can get a cheaper/less feature filled radio for $50 and a warmer for $15-$20. The rest of that stuff though is basic stuff at decent prices.

DA you can pick up at your local hardware store in the paint aisle. Usually in a half gallon/quart tin can for a few bucks.

Give it a complete tear down, clean, and inspection. Replace worn/broken parts as best as you can, but some modding of other parts may be required.
