Kyosho RC 1970 Dodge Charger: ROUGH DRIVING AND JUMPS

- I decided to purchase a Kyosho RC 1970 Dodge Charger so I could drive it rough for you guys. This video has loads of driving in the dirt, jumps, and very rough driving in general. Witness to terrible destruction of my precious '70 Dodge Charger body.
See what happened to the damaged Dodge Charger body here:

Awesome action . The car really got a shit kicking but kept going with no problems
thanks, Billy! Truly a great compliment coming from you
Says it’s expensive but then goes and drives it like a BUGGY! 😳😳😳😳😳
someone's gotta do it :)
Wow! All that jumping and no damage to the chassis/suspension? That’s great! Thanks for making such a cool video and subjecting your car to such abuse for us!
thanks for watching, man :) I can't wait to show the modified Charger body in action
Great vid man, thanks cuz I won't do it with my rc's but I love to see those jumps
thanks for watching, man! And yeah, I didn't plan to jump it until we ran the RC over with my actual car :'(
I’ve been searching for a video this awesome and now I’ve found it
thanks for watching it :D
All the stars say "don't read the reviews". People are cruel. I like damage myself. I have money and if I choose to have a Bon fire it's gonna be a big one
haha thanks, dude! This body was rebuilt to look like an old movie car. Thanks for watching this, I appreciate it
@@BDA302 I got mine off of Ebay :D it's a beast, and can take serious punishment
Just a couple things I noticed in your video. 1. Deans/T-plugs are actually a very common plug for rc.
2. The decal stripe a cross the back was the most common look in the 1970 Charger paint scheme so that's why it had it.
3. $300 is actually cheap for a good quality rc product but I'm sorry you payed over $300 for the Charger MK2 because they only run about $220 which is even more cheap for a good quality rc.
4. Lastly, you can easily fix the lexan body carefully with a heat gun. Just take two small oblong wooden blocks and place one on each side of the bent lexan body at the fold. Hold the blocks and body with one hand right where it folded and heat gun the under side while slowly applying pressure to counter the bend/fold. If you do it carefully you will never even know it was ran over and folded. Its a good thing the lexan didn't snap/crack.
These MK2 Chasis rc cars are some of the nicest cheaper street runners and have some of the nicest looking scale bodies. Blessings!🤙🏻
hi there, thanks for the comments :) You can see what happened to my Dodge Charger r/c after filming this. It got a movie upgrade: th-cam.com/video/JF0Io77Wr7I/w-d-xo.html
To get the dings, and folds out of lexan bodies, heat gun. Heat until pliable, and smooth out. Some folds take a few heats to work out, some will never be the same as new. Personally, at a cost of $100/shell, I'll take my chances, and take it slow. Just me though. Good luck!
thank you for the tip! My friend already fixed it for me :D Wait till you see what the body looks like now. I won't be able to film it for a few months though
Thumbs up for driving over the challanger :D
Great video but needed to be orange with a 01 on on it though! =)
That plug is a deans plug (t connector) one of the most used high quality battery and ESC plug used, I use them on all my cars.
haha is it really? My bad on the connector. And the General will be coming :D Probably won't feature jumps like this though lol
probably need to add some weight in the trunk when you jump it like how they did with the real one! =)
haha that could be a rough landing! :D It would be cool to mod this '70 Charger into a '69 one so I wouldn't have to fear the landing so much. I've got a hobbygraded '69 General Lee (hardshell) which would look great on video. I'll probably do jumps on soft dirt so the hard shell doesn't crack in half
i love this maybe reinforce the body with a layer of fibreglas. i am planning on buying a dodge charger to make the general lee. is there some site i can follow or some links. i would higly appreciate it. Thx
Where did you get the black charger body? Whats the model number for it? Also, I seen they make a nice metal spur gear upgrade to replace the crappy plastic one KYOFA535-76M
How fast do it go
Really satisfying to watch. I enjoyed the angles you chose to film from. I just had a question. Are these things built to sustain a lot of damage or were you particularly lucky for it to have survived the filming of the video? I'm talking more about the chassis than the body. I don't know much about RC cars.
These things are extremely tough. I've driven a lot of my R/C cars really hard, and have yet to bring any of the chassis yet. As for the real car running over the R/C car here, that was insane. I couldn't believe nothing broke (except for the body). Thanks for watching :)
A car chase scene, very cool.
thank you!
How time flies...I just picked out the same body for £20 ....planning to do the full Dukes of Hazzard look when I get my one and head to my local track lol...Already ran ‘Herbie’...which went down well....got Mr Bean’s mini in the pipe line...now all I need is a DeLorean, KITT, Bandit’s Trans Am, and the A-Team van ....oh and the Lambo from the Cannon Ball Run 🤦♂️🤦♂️😂😂😂
how are you gonna make the A-Team van?
@@PrinceofMacedonVlogs Probably out of a Tamiya 'Lunch Box' shell....it will be a bit of a pipe dream for now as I dont own any monster trucks so will need to check dimensions (length and width) and maybe do some bodging to make it fit on a Tamiya car chassis.
Hey cool video! How did you clean the chassis so good though?
I think he just uses compressed air , I do and it's the only way to get all the fine dust out without disassembly
Thanks, man! And as Billy said, I just used my friend's giant, compressed air machine. And for the body, I used a hose
awesome vid bro great car 🚗
thanks, my friend! :) Me and my friend are gonna make this Charger look super-badass in the upcoming future
You bet . It's going to look badass
:D
Great video! 🚘 I still have question: Did you have any problems with driving in dirt like rocks blocking something in the chassis? And have you discovered any weakspots on the chassis?
Greetings from germany!
yeah, there were definitely rocks/pebbles getting in the chassis, but I was able to pluck them out. This r/c is really just made for the street, but I like to drive my r/c cars hard :D Kyosho makes a lot of fantastic r/c cars like this one with great details on the body (such as the Chevelle)
I’d be the one to waste time and money to paint orange with an 01 on the side
I would've done that, but I went with the Charger from "Death Proof" instead. I've got a General Lee that's primed up already for filming. I just need to get the squad cars to chase it now lol
What is the scale of this 1970 Dodge Charger R C?
it's 1/10 scale
Wow! This is So Cool! Great Video: i love this little model RC! Oh and i wanted to ask a question as well, Ive got this buddy and he is planning on trying to film his car but he can't actually jump it and got wind of this car ( And yes: That is a Lot of Money! ) And he got the idea that he'd jump these little RC cars whenever a jump sequence was needed... I wanted to ask: You said that they sell replaceable bodies? ( Because if they do im going to tell him that he needs to get one to bend a little to simulate damage. Even though it was an accident running into yours: it kind of looks cool to me because i thought these bodies couldn't be bent and that they were made from plastic or something... Thanks for that idea! ) How durable are the chassis and motor? And also: ( Ive seen other RC car videos and they actually have an angle on the car!!! I was So Surprised to see a camera That Small: Do you know of any small cameras like that? Thanks!
thanks, dude! And yeah, Kyosho does sell these bodies (if not, you can probably find some on Ebay), but they are ridiculously expensive! But these lexan bodies are made to be very durable. They're not hard plastic shells like toygrade RC bodies. Lexan bodies are used for superfast hobbygraded RC cars because the toy plastic RC bodies would simply break/crack if they did stuff like in this video (i.e. jumps). Now these aren't made for jumping, but I still did it lol They sell miniature cameras you can put in your RC cars :D Try looking them up on Ebay. I don't know what they're called. Maybe do a search for "miniature RC car camera" on Ebay
xprinceofmacedonx Wow, Thanks a Million for the advice! I'm going to tell him about it, You've been Very Helpful! Thank You! Thumbs Up!
anytime, dude! Good luck
That thing can take a beating
Where did you find that car
I ordered it off of Ebay. But Kyosho Fazer made it
The landing upside down and skidding on pavement after jumping it didn’t cause damage??
just minimal body scratches - this thing is robust. Even after we ran the r/c car over (with my real car), there was no damage
If you ran over the rc car then how did it not damage the chassis.
I honestly don't know. I expected it to be smashed, but only the body took damage
Curious why they chose the ‘70 Charger instead of the more iconic ‘68 or ‘69 Charger
I'm curious too, although the '70 is pretty hot too. The '68 would've been a great year to cover since no one's made an r/c version yet
How to buy it
Kyosho America sells it. You can also buy it on Ebay
dope
thank ya
where in the world are u that dean plugs aren't damn nea standard?!!
Love it, now paint it orange with 01 on the side and jump it over some Police cars!
PS I think there's a dead guy under the ramp in a hole!
you're sad for the bending body but you slammed it how many times in purpose. come on!! cool vid though.
I showed the footage out of order. The car was smashed first (before I drove it hard on the jumps). Also, you should see what the Charger looks like now. It's 20x's better-looking now th-cam.com/video/JF0Io77Wr7I/w-d-xo.html
You forgot to say in your Description that you don’t own the rights to the music? TH-cam might take that off and put something else
I own all of the rights to the music in this video. I'm partnered with ScaleLabs who provided the music
The dean's plug is probably the most used plug in the USA
yeah, that's what everyone is saying here. In my personal collection, though, I only have this 1 r/c (out of about 20) which uses this connection
That's my favorite plug
dirty harry dodge charger chase
Omg I though it was a real one
haha I probably wouldn't drive a real one like that
killed your car :(
not at all. Look what the car looks like now: th-cam.com/video/JF0Io77Wr7I/w-d-xo.html
Nice classic car why u trying to kill it? Lol
field-testing :) but don't worry, it's in amazing condition again
xprinceofmacedonx ok koo im just starting n im already a grand in the hole lol
what kind of RC are you getting?
xprinceofmacedonx i got a raptor and a stampede 4x4 i want a street one now what u recomend?
I wont that car plz plz plz
pretty sweet, huh? :D You can get them on Ebay ("Kyosho 1970 Dodge Charger")
Well that's about your only way you're going to drift that little brushed Kyosho is in the why would you want to do that to A Streetcar I don't understand I have a Kyosho Camaro a brushless system in it would never dream of bashing it like that but I guess Live and Let Live what a shame that's what they make monster trucks for
I grew up on the Dukes of Hazzard. Something beautiful about watching muscle cars driving rough. It's an aesthetic. You should see what happened to this r/c car. It's way better looking now compared to what Kyosho made for this body
@@PrinceofMacedonVlogs I'd like to see what you did to it because Kyosho make some of the best bodies on the market
@@PrinceofMacedonVlogs and I used to watch the Dukes as well mainly for Daisy LOL to corny otherwise
@@rcragemoddingenjoyingrcveh417 not sure if you've ever seen Ron Howard's "Eat My Dust" movie, but we turned this Charger into the Charger from that movie: th-cam.com/video/JF0Io77Wr7I/w-d-xo.html
This dude got scammed I got mine for 200
when these first came out, they were very expensive, and they only came RTR (so they were more expensive)
