if there was a way to fit a really small camera in there you could potentially stream it to a vr headset and drive around your dioramas in first person. that would be soooo cool
@@VTX-Live Sadly most FPV's I've seen aren't 360 and aren't really good for beautiful scenery it gets the job done for driving but not for photos or video.

Ridiculous... as in ridiculously good! He really needs to do the camera thing in the scene he's made as that would look awesome!
Good lord. I honestly don't know how you have a) the patience, b) the delicacy of touch, c) the eyesight, d) the nerves and e) lots of other stuff. Well done with this. Hope you and your family are well.
@ThePhilRivers You're right, at first I thought "that's strange that Luke would lose the side mirrors, he's so organized and meticulous". But your comment made me realize that no matter how organized or meticulous you are, you can lose things, no matter if you're a professional or a beginner.
I was so happy to hear that even a master can do this!!!! I’m going to buy one to drive around my fathers public layout! Thanks for all your videos Luke
@@villiantwo meh its more easy like you say but it's hard enough while you're recorded it, behind that scene there be a lots of footage to make proper view in front camera and last thing say something whole 18 minutes
Someone on a forum recommended this channel to me. Oh, that's a pretty cute HO Land Rover. And a good job of stop motion to show it moving. (Starts watching video.) Wait, what, it's 1/87 and RC? WHAT???? Seriously, that's just about the most awesome thing I've ever seen; and I've seen a huge trebuchet hurl a pumpkin 1,866 feet! Absolutely amazing work.
Kudos. As a long time (65 yrs and counting now) hobbyist and H0 and N modeller, I have to admit I'm totally flabbergasted by your patience and your talent. That's real precision watchmaker job!
Seems like a lot of work when you can just do the same with hot wheels and make them drive around telepathically and have tiny figurines run under the tyres
I LOVE THE VOICES AT THE END!!!!!!! Reminds me of the bloopers at the end of an older video and the "girl overboard" in another!!!! More of these please. Im a very happy Patreon!
I would love to see a haunted house model! Complete with all sorts of monsters,ghosts,zombies,ghouls, the sky is the limit! Maybe even make a little graveyard around the house with zombies coming out the ground!
It's past 2 am. BUT DO I CARE Yes. But then I am early for the first time in a while. And mini things makes me happy. And makes me wonder what it would be like living in one of this man's dioramas
Holy *CRAP* ! Did anyone els notice he labels the timelines 😨 That’s amazing AND IN THE DESCRIPTION! He really thought about his viewers when he made this video 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
What an awesome little car, your patience is incredible. You could have glued some smoked plastic in the back windows though, or maybe painted the battery to look like luggage. Very nice still. =)
Found this video by total accident...I'm more of a tank model guy myself and will probably never own a micro car kit but WOW did I find this video to be so pleasing to watch! Great tutorial and great camera work as well!
Superb, as someone into 1/10 RC cars, various scales of RC boats and two scales of RC, BTC and DC railways, my mind has been blown, a skilled project, thanks for posting!
this tutorial is a life saver because no instructions are included, currently i have the front axle finished other then the steering arm. doing pretty good for never building with parts this small.
Oh. My. God. Amazing! I never knew how much I needed a tiny RC car (or at least, to watch you make one). Also, it looked like your soldering skills were more than adequate... :)
Thank you very much! I guess my soldering gets the job done but compared to people who have been doing stuff like this for many years I definitely need a bit more practice 😉
I made custom audio cables for 20 years, and I always told people "It's not rocket science, it's just practice.". Looks like you had the tools and the skills. Well done (as always)! Even having made wargaming terrain for decades, I find I always learn something from your videos (I bought a pair of machinist 1-2-3 blocks after seeing you use them - love 'em!). I laughed out loud at the "It came with these mirrors - which I lost". So relatable...
@@BoulderCreekRailroad As someone who does repair mechanical watches I can safely say you're not far from it with this! The gears and 3DP parts do look a bit scruffy but I bet you could get some amazing results just changing out the gears on the model. Definitely gonna look into making something with these now! :D
@@BoulderCreekRailroad I do dental implants, and some of them are multi part with locking latches and levers to operate them. I have to say: your work is really good. I wish I would understand the electronics part too, so I could do this kit too :(
@@BoulderCreekRailroad Had to fiddle around with tiny gears once, made a steampunky EMP grenade with some moving gears. That was already enough for me :p A working watch where everything has to work together, sounds like a true nightmare.
you wanna see some complicated watches? take a look at Jacob & Co astronomia watches.... thats a whole another level of watches!!! and for the record, the pricetag on those are basically half a million or more.
Adam Savage did the mistake of reffering to the screws that hold his glasses together tiny. A watchmaker sent him some screws that are almost literally unbelievably tiny. I don't even understand how they could be used.
I've had this kit for a year but I was too afraid to assemble it because there were no instructions I could find, at least not in English, I think I might build it this weekend.
Even if I were to attempt something like this, it would take me so many months. This is so detailed, tiny and awesome. Your patience is outstanding and so is your work, Luke Towan. Wow!
Man-o-man was that so FUN to watch. You've got some patience !!! Thank you for sharing this build with us. I'm an LED guy but frankly, where the heck would you have had room...no where...
I thought it impossible to custom make all my parts for micro cars until I finally tried. So building a ready made kit should be within many people's abilities if you have the tools and just go very slowly and follow Lukes advice.
WOW.... Building that seems like a labor of love. I wish the assembled chassis was available for purchase on its own. I'd love to design and 3d print new "bodies" for them.
Cute probably isn't the right term but seeing the tiny car just driving through all your previous builds gives me so much joy like I could watch just an hour of that
This is a brilliant video showing your amazing skills. I like how it looks like there is working suspension as well. Would look great with some slow mo footage. Perhaps some tinted out windows to hide the innards.
Ooh I want to make one. Psych!! Watching you assemble those tiny parts was enough for me. Thanks. Love watching it drive through an actual terrain? too!!
Wow; I had no idea anyone even made such a thing - that's so tiny it's insane! :-) But it does look like a lot of fun, especially for people who like small scale models. Great job, and great tutorial!!

Awesome tutorial Luke.. thanks
I'm subscriber like more than a year and just found out that Waldo thing... damn.
Just wondering is there any reason to not put windows? Anyway, its an EXTREMELY well done remote car.
Adding Wally/Waldo is more of a new thing I've been doing so you probably won't see him in many of my older videos 😉

That part had me wheezing... I mean LOOK at them. All he had to do was think too hard in the wrong direction and they were gonna go rogue
With the size of these things I can just sneezing would send they flying

@ungratefulmetalpansy They put the smoke into the circuit boards and motors at the factory. If you let the smoke out they won't work anymore. :)
FANTASTIC video! I work with 14th scale models. It blows my mind how you managed to cram EVERYTHING needed into such a small space!

Great build Luke...👍
I can't believe this is an RC car that is smaller than a Hot Wheels (1/64 scale).
