So, I have Nikola Tesla to thank for my RC obsession? I really love that guy!
And now one of these come as full size road legal electric car 🎉
It's funny seeing cars from my collection being talked about as history. Especially the slot cars. I still race slot cars from the 60's to this day. Many of the RC cars you talked about i still have in brand new condition. I raced an RC10 back in 1988 and still have them now, hell I've got a brand new one. Oh my god l'm old🤦🏻♂️.
I knew when they started calling the cars and parts "vintage" I was in trouble. Thanks for the memories bud 👍

This is underrated as hell this needs to go viral 🔥
Amazing video 👏👏💯
Excelent video!
It led me to revisit the iconic car chases on Dirty Harry and The Dead Pool - 1988!
What a great video. Nicely produced, great quality voiceover, and it's about an awesome subject. This needs a million views!
thank you, Nikola Tesla 🙏
The amount of times you can say that in a day is absolutely mad. He was on another level of understanding.
AFX! They are the OG of slot car racing. I love afx, they make such good slot car sets
Thank you Nikola T, you gave us so much. My first RC car?. About 1975-ish, from Shucks Auto Parts. A two button mini steer wheel controlled Imsa car. Left, right, forward, back. Preset speed in either direction. Your speed was dependent on how fresh the batteries were. I liked doing the 'Jim Rockford" 180° spinouts in reverse with it, with the fresh batteries in. My last new Build?, A Xray XB808 4wd Buggy, that won me ALOT of races. Still have it. I found one of the limited edition 1/10 scale Mugen Seiki MST1 nitro trucks, still in the box, with Novarossi engine included. They only made them for a couple years. Going to put that one together soon. I am making a parts pile for it, because of the rarity.
The very first Nitro RC car was the 1964 Feldmann from Germany. Probably the first RC car ever. Later in the 1960s, companies like Micart (1966) and Dynamic (1968) produced the first vehicles in series. Kyosho´s Dash 1 from 1969 was the first successful model.
i was charging a team associated car while watching this lol
I really like your editing style
I am waching roach
You skipped the 70s Tamiya… 😢
Cool vid. Very enjoyable.
great video so fun to watch
Great video dude! Enjoyed watching this
This was awesome 👏
Excellent! You forgot jerobee though 😉
Great video thanks for making
Excellent video mate
5:36 I have the VHS tape with this guy. A general R/C showcase of all mid 80s car platforms. From my first kit R/C The Blackfoot to 1/8 scale off road nitro cars with cameras mounted on them. I love my hero Tesla invented my favorite hobby!
I thought I have seen that guy in an old video also. Do you have a full digital copy of that video?
@@user-ox5ix2vo4d No. Just a old VHS tape. The box is yellow with a Blackfoot on the front. The music is very Beastie Boys like.
I think that must be the same video, I remember the Blackfoot jumping on the cover. @@bradbrown8759
I have such an El - Gi Ferrari 250 Le Mans. A great looking car for his age 😀
How do the controls work on it? Can it reverse? Is steering proportional?
@@ChinaExpatsRC It's very simple. You can lock it. Go forward and turn left and right. The speed is only a 5/6km/h. But for me it's just cool that they made this in 1966.
It is surprising how many batteries are required for this. 6 times an LR-14 and another 9V block battery.
Very good video
🔵🔵🔵🙂🙂🙂👍👍👍🔵🔵🔵
Look how happy they are.. must be all the lead XD :D
Sade approves 🚗💨
Ok, i never really thought about that I, as a 80s kid, basically witnessed the rise of commercial RC Cars.... Which makes sense, as when I was a kid- cars that were tethered with a cable were still a thing.
I have one of the Porsche 962 Tyco cars still, with a full hobby electronics upgrade. No room for a different battery though, so it still uses 8 AAs. Ive had most of the 80s buggies on here also, as an adult, and not repops either. I still have a Custom Works Dominator chain drive dirt oval car too
That little Porsche got me started in RC pretty much... I got a couple of the 9.6 volt cars afterwards then started saving my money for a hobby-grade one. I eventually got a used Blackfoot that was nicely modded for dirt oval racing. I used to drool over those Dominators at the track... They were way out of my budget lol.
@@digiprez77you priced an original Blackfoot or Dominator lately? Neither is cheap. The closest thing you'll get to a Tamiya kit under $100 is the green edition grasshopper is on special at hobby Town
Very well done video, and thank you for giving credit to my website for some of your information.
Any video on the , explanation of the electronic circuit's used in the transmitter and receiver of RC cars
Complete detail explanation how the circuit works , how the signal is transmitted from transmitter to receiver to control the dc motor in the toy car
BTW, the El Gi Ferrari does not have reverse, I own one.
Well done
Excellent job! Very well done! Let's brainstorm thumbnails next time though
Clearly needs more red arrows.
Interesting.
Y sin embargo las grandes marcas eran demaciado costosas muchos niños no podian tenerla fue hasta la aparicion de marcas populares como Tyco, Nikko, Radioshack, Tandy, que pudo popularisarse a precios bajos y crear la cultura del radio control que hoy tenemos
🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
if stop is a button then most likely reverse is no button pushed
4:48….looks more like (3) AA Batteries and not (2) 9 volt homie. I had no Idea Tesla invested this too.
You can play this story in Red Dead Redemption 2
That was marconi
Radio
Not tesla
Lacking dates for the advances. Yes, Italian rc 1964, 67 new development.
cool vid! thanks for sharing it! would it be possible to post it on my chanel?… just love it!!!
Why did we stop at the 1980s?
nowadays we died over pig crossing the road. back then they just smile smokin a leaded fune
Nicola tesla 😮😅
Tether cars aren't rc.
The Ancestor Exactly 😊🙏
Too late, Tesla did it in 1898
Never, ever call them remote controlled cars please. Televisions are remote control. These things are radio controlled.
The original title of this video was "The History of Radio Control", but TH-cam didn't promote it until I changed the title. Blame TH-cam's algorithm.
So PB MARDAVE SERPENT SG DELTA where just a figment of my imagination ?
