love this vid and cars but hate the "e"word conversions I run 2 stroke or nitro only even in my rc planes I build kits or from scratch and nitro or gas only wish it was still all that way e words have ruined the experience of the whole thing
When I bougt my 1:6 reely dune fighter, wich is going to run soon... hopefully , I looked at buying one , because they were cheap , like 150€ but then I saw the dune fighter and had to have it . Nice vid .
My FG Baja 4×4 is just sat in the shed. Wish I had more time to go rippin'. Maybe in the future when it is a vintage and worth a fortune i will do something with it.
Had one briefly was still 2 stroke was going to convert it to brushless but was so long ago didn't have the tech to go electric at the time! So cleaned it up and flipped it! Have an extended Emaxx under a F150 FG shell now not as heavy duty but a lot of fun! The proportions are that it in pictures you can't tell its a 6th scale looks just like an ordinary Emaxx!
I got my first 5th scale fg marder in 1990 they came with a 23cc zenoah 2 stroke and with the standard exhaust can they absolutely ripped. i've also had 2 fg Baja one I still own 2 wheel drive and use every week it's bog standard and bulletproof it's 26cc. zenoah engine keeps up against modern km Baja with 30.5cc all day long.
If you want maximum battery life, don´t discharge a Lipo cell below 3,5V in your model. With the expensive ones (90 bucks for a Roaring Top 4s 4,4Ah) I set Lipo alarm beeper at 3,7V per cell for a non bloated pack. For a massively bloated (and already abused) one I use 3,3V. 2,7V is serious abuse of a Lipo battery. Some blue china ones (from WLtoys 144001) can take discharge down to 3,2V per cell. But that is already the exception to the rule.
its like real wrc effect, large scale car with beautiful tires , drifting ,tearing the mud every 80s grown up kids wil enjoy back their life. happy 80s, 90s, kids
Don't know if any of you've already come across the 'Quarterscale Sprintcars' and/or 'Quarterscale Touringcars' here on YT? If not, you know what's next on your to-do list for today... 👌🏻😍😍👍🏻
Im thinking of a fg marder 30th year anniversary gasser in my collection. Nice goal to have in 2023. Also a nice challenge to wrench and maintain. Since all my cars electric. Want to experience the sound and smell of a big gas rc!
stoffel sound and slow electric is better en faster and learn dutch write yes schildpad zo traag ik haal 130 km/u met mijn corally muraco nu jij en leer eens dutch
Very cool 😎 just getting into RCs I’m Starting out with a red cat scout a traxxas Bigfoot original and a axial scx10 2. 69 blazer Probably not the best choices mybe but I’m having fun and hooked big time just wished we had a park to meet others that are into them
Love it! So good to see an FG Beetle online again. I've got two FG Beetles. One started off as the FG Monster Beetle (26cc, 2WD). Though after a few years I bought the 4WD belt conversion kit for it from Germany, and using slightly wider than stock FG Marder wheels and spike tyres. I had the engine ported, fitted a larger Walbro carb, and a JetPro exhaust (looks like something you'd see on a 2-stroke Motocross bike!) - the thing is nuts... Doing the conversion it left over soooo many spares, and coupled with the spares that I'd amassed over the years I only needed a few bits to complete a build of another Beetle, so I did. The only thing it doesn't have over the stock FG Beetle, is the bath tub (inner arch basin type thingy). They're both getting on now, yet still never fail to put a smile on my face. They're money-pits though, jeez the amount of upgrade parts they've had over the years, ali this, carbon that..

Freakin sick! I didn’t even know 5th scale was a thing in the 80s.
Still got my FG street jeep 2 stroke been in storage 4 about 8 years lol 😆
uhm. maybe it's time to rebuild that carb. and go rip!!!! You know you want to!
Time 2 dust it off and go 4 a rip
Ripp’n farts and rc cars😄
love this vid and cars but hate the "e"word conversions I run 2 stroke or nitro only even in my rc planes I build kits or from scratch and nitro or gas only wish it was still all that way e words have ruined the experience of the whole thing
I couldnt agree more with your opinion. Nitro and gas is waaay more fun.
I actually have this old beetle original with gas engine. Its like new,because i love it and take good care of it. Will never sell it!
Man that’s so sick dude, we need stuff like this now a days!!!
Fg cars are awesome!
Sick! Great video, Loving the slow motion shots. 👍
Dam that was some good ass content. Subscribe!
Ohh man i remember that bug and the Kyosho 1/5 cars, always drooling over them in the catalouges when i was a kid.
Looks like great fun with that nice, big beetle. I recently bought an old, mid90s,
1/7 Robbe Nitro car and will brushless swap it. Great video 🙂
That’s sweet little buggy
Badarse rigs !
I’m just here for the farts and you didn’t disappoint 👍
wHY DO YOU LOOK IN THE mONITOR......LOOKS VERY silly.....look at me....I am inside the cam

Why all in slow mo

Sick AF!!!!!!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥
Very sweet
AWESOME! Would love to see one of these two stroke pumping!

another rare large scale r/c is the MRC Nitro Thunder King, less than 1200 nitro conversion kits made
As an "old guy" those beetle bodies are sick. I want a 1:8 beetle body for an rc project, but they don't seem to exist.
Very, very nice this Volkswagen Beetle.
collection ???
There is no minimum number of items for a collection. I have a few more videos coming about a few others.
stoffel sound and slow electric is better en faster and learn dutch write yes

Nice Clowncore references
I own a team associated, creepy crawler, from 2009, nothing better than old r.c. crawlers. Runs and crawls well.
heck yeah swamppy!
Yeah bro you know how to do it keep making it happen
Great cars, why the devil horns?
why not?
@@surfside75 I’m not stupid 🖕🏽

Hella cool! I didn't know they made that high of quality 1/5 scale RC cars back then
That old adage, they don't make them like they used to rings true. these were so over engineered.
@@kpopRC over engineered in a good way IMO. The thing is so badass
Super vidéo, super collection
Too much slow motion, and too much close ups while running. Let us see the actual speed and performance of the car, with further away shots
nah. not what im in to.
Hai pronunciato “Alfa Romeo” quasi perfettamente: BRAVO! 👍😁💪🏁
👍👍👍
nice car! great vidéo!!!!
I mean. If we're just giving away multi thousand dollar, vintage RC cars. I'll GLADLY take one...
lol. is it multi thousand? some how i think these can be found for 500ish dollars. here and there.
@@kpopRC lol. Idk how much it actually can be found for today. I was just being sarcastic.
Shit right in my face
Thumb up for the fart !

just wonder why why that man use a cap on the head
yes?

yes buddy! actually sounds like a blast even though they're money pits.
Sometimes i wish for no music, as to hear the car.
Thats whag rc ppl want to hear.
Jus sayin
not what i do... sorry bud.
@@kpopRC but i gotta hear this beast!!! It gives you 'real speed' feel and look.
You still got awesome vids man. Still get a thumbs up all day. 👍
Is that the owner of MCD?? lol
no.
Oh man! This was so worth the wait
El guchito mexicano de Ralin😎🇲🇽ou yea
Wish said somthing anout electronis kinda half what rc are about. Why i gave thumbs down great camera work though but a fail 👎
fail? lol. it had some kind of predetermined agenda? haters gonna hate i guess. Just so you can stop crying. Electronics are hobbywing max 5 combo. 😂
Sheeesh bro🤣
