Cross-country barrel shock springs work differently than your standard damper spring. Why are they so good for some TRF (Tamiya Racing Factory) aeration oil-filled dampers on Tamiya's CC-01 (Cross Country) chassis for R/C model vehicles like the Mitsubishi Pajero/Montero and also can surprisingly work (with some serious modifications) in the ORV (Off-Road Vehicle) chassis? We dig deep into the physics and material science on these CC-O1 barrel shock spring set in this episode of the RC Deep Dive podcast.

A popular hop-up for the Tamiya Frog 1:10th scale R/C buggy are the TRF (Tamiya Racing Factory) Buggy Aeration Oil-Filled Dampers. Why is this combination of modern and vintage so popular and what does it do for the vintage stylings of the ORV (Off-Road Vehicle) chassis radio controlled vehicles. We spring for the truth about this unique restomod hop-up in this episode of the RC Deep Dive podcast.

The Clodbuster and the Super Clodbuster The monster truck of monster trucks, that would be called The King if it wasn't for the King Blackfoot.
