Motorsport in Scale
Canada
เข้าร่วมเมื่อ 14 ม.ค. 2020
My channel all about building motorsport in scale - anything from two to four wheels, and maybe even wings!
My name is Earl and I am a scale modeller from western Canada, I enjoy building, detailing, finishing and documenting my projects for you to enjoy as well.
My channel is about all the things we, motorsport modellers, enjoy. I make detailed vlog-style videos from my builds where I explain and demonstrate how to use techniques ranging from basic to advanced. Detailing? Painting? Decals? Clear coating? Carbon fiber? Oil lines? Washes? Oil paints? Chipping? Well, I've got just the thing.
If you want to learn some new techniques and maybe get inspired for your own projects, you've come to the right place as I add new videos weekly!

Mayako MX8E-24R test and tune day - tires and wing
Not my usual content, but it is scale motorsports! Got back into racing RC, been out of it for the last 5yrs, (mostly on-road), thought I would give off-road 1/8th scale a try. Picked up the new #Mayako buggy and have spent some time at my local track testing and club racing. Today I tested some new tires and a new wing. Also trying the new DJI Action 5. If you want to see more RC content, let me know!

Bonjour, pouvez vous me dire ou trouver des pneus corrects pour ce kit, je crois que vous en parlez mais la traduction n’est pas toujours au top !!!! merci 😊
where is this track located?
Kelowna, BC, CND
@@motorsportinscale2291 Im from Calgary and I race RC also, but I do on-road only. wondering did we meet in one of the WCICS before.
could be, raced at CARCAR many times, ran the WCICS race here in Kelowna as well!
@ I sent you the friend request on Facebook
Looks amazing!!
Much appreciated!
Nice review.. thanks.. Those wishbones look like they are correct in this video at least.. th-cam.com/video/dT-JcqzFqjk/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=CarandMotoinJapan
Thanks for the reference, they do look correct.
Earl, us in the model building community, in particular me, am so glad you came back to the fold; so to speak. For me, contemplating buying such a costly kit, can now make a decision. Your build was a Master Class, so thank you very much.
I appreciate your kind words!
sinkmarks everywhere...
will definitely need some work!
Super interesting. Very good job! I like watching your videos.
Thank you very much!
Alpha Models isn’t really a garage company there been around for years doing a limited run on there car and are aimed at people who have been building kits for a while I have like 20 Alpha Kits and have only had one problem with a body which I contacted Michael from Alpha Models and he sent me out a new body free of charge. Also with the resin the body and other parts need to be prep for primer and after primer you need to prep that for paint you treat the paint job like you would on a real car
truly amazing work - may I ask you which solder material y use? and in magnetic tumbler there is just water or something else? thx!!!
Thank you, I get the solder for Langley hobbies, and use dish soap in the tumbler.
How long do you leave your white metal parts in the tumbler? Did I understand correctly that you also clean your resin parts in the tumbler?
around 15min., and yes I do the resin with it as well.
their Ford GT was next-level
I've heard that too.
Parece un sitio agradable para pasar un día de carreraras y test!!!! Enseñanos tu evolución con el Mayako y con el RC en general. Vamos!
Thinking of getting one of these models
happy with mine!
More details than the Pocher kit
yep!
Tires used it test - Raw Speed Mach One, soft long wear, and Radar, soft long wear. Compared against the normal soft compound (Mach One) for traction and wear characteristics. Based lined to the Pro-Motion Mig, soft long wear, super soft long wear.
Great job and you speak MFHbuild language well..... all the little micro techniques on every part.
Thank you.
I never build these without putting them in a case. Too much time & money to not protect them from dust. Mine will be displayed with the doors open and tail up or off. That should save a huge amount of time. This looks like the perfect kit to display open.
worth protecting for sure!
Looking awesome, Earl! Love the wiring!
Thanks, will get back on this soon!
Hey Earl, the engine looks fantastic. Thanks for all the tips about using and thinning metallics. Where do you get the cool lids for the thinner bottles?
Thanks, the lids are from Mr. Hobby.
Good pro tip on the gold Mylar!
Thanks!
Looks good enjoy the video
Thank you 😋
Great so far. I’m looking forward to seeing how the chain goes together.
Thanks 👍
Awesome, Earl. Good stuff.
Thank you kindly!
Where can I buy the grade up kit now?!
No idea!
HiroBoy in the UK. They ship internationally.
Coming along very nicely. Metal looks tough to work with to me. Appreciate the rotary tool overview you snuck in there, too. Congratulations on hitting 1,000 subscribers too, well earned!
Thanks 👍, much appreciated!
What polishing sponges are you using? Thanks
just ones I found on Amazon, nothing special.
Looking forward to this build, loved the 917 build, currently working on the Martini 917 LH. For the silver paint, check out Tamiya LP-48 Sparkling Silver, has some good amount of flake and scale appropriate.
The real bike is metal flake, LP-48 is not course enough, already tested. Picked up some GX208 to test, as well as have some Zero medium metal flake coming to test, stay tuned!
Thanks for the video. It's an excellent input! I only have one MFH kit, it's a 1/20 1975 Ferrari F1. I don't have any plans to build it in the near future, but I appreciate that you made this video.
Go for it!
@@motorsportinscale2291 thank you for your encouragement.
Already know this is going to be awesome :)
It's a great looking kit, my first MFH bike!
Your work is beautiful! Really enjoy watching your builds
Thank you so much!
Impeccable is the only word I can think to describe this
Thank you!
Congratulations on a stunning build. Thoroughly enjoyed following you progress and looking forward to your next project.
Thank you very much!
Achieving that work of art with what was in the box is Da Vinci level genius. You are a craftsman of serious note!
Thank you!
@@motorsportinscale2291 Pleasure!
Awesome job! Congratulation.
Thank you!
Once again great work ! The red for this model is fantastic !!!
Thanks a lot!
This may be a dumb comment but I was wondering about the time spent on flattening the decals. I THINK that on race cars of this era the numbers would have been painted on by hand. If so, there would probably have been some kind of a "step" between the bodywork and the numbers. Your models are beautiful, but these cars were essentially tools built for a purpose. I guess what I'm saying is, are your models pritier than the originals? In any case your models are amazing and each post is an education
You are correct in thinking the real car would have painted #'s and there would be a step. There is a few reasons for removing this step on the decals 1. the step with decals is from the clear carrier film, so does not align with the makings. 2. the step with the decals is much greater than the step from paint (not scale correct). Ideally, I would have made stencils and painted the #'s, but this was not in the scope of work for this project. I try and create as representative of a finish as possible, and go by references if available. In this case, I did find one color photo of the car in period showing it to be quite polished and shinny!
Thank you for that
That shine is exceptional, that was a lucky "mistake" on your part!!
Thanks, I was originally going for a less shinny finish, but found a reference showing it was quite shinny IRL, that's why I switched from 85% to 90% gloss content.
@@motorsportinscale2291 Good decision!
How's the GX compare to 2K? Other than its probably much safer..
I do not use 2K and never will, so cannot compare directly. From what I have seen on the tables, both can be done to look great, also both can look like shit if done incorrectly in their own way.
@@motorsportinscale2291 Curios why you would never use 2k? I've been trying to decide. And I as wondering what airbrush are you running for your coats? Im a bit new to all the clear coat stuff.
Two fold, race cars do not have show car paint and the health risks are real and something I do not want to deal with.
I appreciate your high quality content and your knowledge. Nice build.
I appreciate that!
Fantastic update again! Love seeing the progress! Have a super weekend ahead
Thanks, you too!
Hello, may I ask what kind of tin material is this that has such good fluidity? I tried soldering, but when it melts it just turns into tin beads and doesn't flow to the metal surface.
Have a look at my soldering video, it has all the details in it. You should find it useful!
Superb. I noticed you don't seem to prime white metal. Is that correct.
I use Tamiya metal primer on all the white metal, it is clear so hard to tell.
Learning lots. Thanks for your efforts.
My pleasure!
What's the pink primer?
Mr. Finishing surfacer 1500 pink.
@@motorsportinscale2291 didn't know they had a pink. More stuff to buy.....
That is an amazing wheel set by MFH! I'm a car model builder too but that is some very technical building ! Can't wait to see the complete car!
They go together fairly easily, well designed for sure.
I just bought this and looking over the instructions. I noticed there are no brake lines for the front and rear. I'm i missing something that i am not seeing in the instructions.
Your not missing anything, they are not included or indicated. Up to you to figure them out!
Just some fun facts...the iconic Gulf livery Porsche 917 never won Le Mans except In the Steve McQueen film Le Mans. Helmut Marko of Red Bull fame won Le Mans in a Porsche 917. The CanAm 917 had over 1500 BHP in qualifying trim. A lot of drivers called the Porsche 917 "A Widowmaker"
Fun fact, this is the car Marko won in...A few of those 'facts' may be more legend or myth...
Great video! Thanks for shedding some light on how the spoked wheels are built! Always a pleasure when you post a new vid!
Glad you like them!
Another great video thanks for sharing! I've been curios about the process with these kinds of wheels. You mentioned you use a lathe aswell, may I ask which one you use? I notice your rpm is high on the drill, the flash point of white metal is so low, friction is probably melting the metal and marring the bit. I machine aluminum often and if it gets hot does the exact same things ruins the endmill. I wonder if some kinda tapping fluid would help. Lower RPM and possibly a carbide bit.
Thanks. The RPM is fine, the drill I was using was not very sharp so may have been a bit of cold welding going on, but mostly the issue with white metal is the chips do not clear and pack up in the flutes.
Everytime I watch your video I buy another tool!😂
Haha, sorry! What tool did you see to buy?
@@motorsportinscale2291the needle holder!
