    Very impressive! FMS/RocHobby just keeps pushing the bar on these scale RC's.

    The suspension movement is very scale this is how my 67 van moves when you put your foot down to go forward as a result of having reduction boxes as vw calls them, or portal axles, not usually on early Beetles

    Anybody who's driven a Volkswagen realizes that that little car has got some pretty impressive legroom. My old boss has a 67 beetle that's all hot rodded out and makes like 200 horsepower. Does wheelies can't help it feel this with a 4S brushless system would be a good scale version of that

    FMS has the absolute best packaging too. Obviously the little foam cases, but the artwork on the Max Smasher box was top notch, vintage goodness. They are on fire.

      its just a waste of material! No one needs these boxes! 90% will throw them awas, 9% keep them but dont use them, and only 1% of some overcarefull people actually take their car with them in the box!

    • @jamtart606
      @jamtart606 Рік тому +1

      I see these models being more aimed at collectors and most of the time they don't throw the packaging away as it keeps it's value better, but hey that's just me and I doubt your percentages are actually factual, seems more subjective.

    The KdF wagen - Kraft durch Freude (Strength through Joy).
    'Beetle' sounds a bit more cuddly.
    I have a mate from school days who bought a knackered Beetle about 1990, when we were 17, which he paid the princely sum of £75 for, and he still owns it to this day, as in Jan 2023. It had a full rebuild back then, as it spent years sat in a quarry being used as a slide by the local kids, who climbed up onto the roof and slid down the back of it, so the roof was caved in, and during it's extraction from the quarry, it rolled into the back of the lorry towing it out which stoved in the bonnet, front panel and both front wings. It survived all that and looks cherry today.

    What an immensely desirable product!
    I may be biased because I love scale classic cars and 1:12 is my favourite scale, but this just oozes quality and good design - and once it's moving, the weird rear suspension movements aren't at all noticeable.

    Nice car, I like it. I had a 68 beetle years ago, I loved that thing. Funnily enough VW Beetles were quite capable off roaders (for medium type of stuff) in their standard trim. They were often raced in round Australia Rallys. They were even better when modified for that kind of thing.

  • @qrisemrc
    @qrisemrc Рік тому +2

    This is a great scale RC. It seems to be implemented well, similar to the real car. Of course, the movement may not be as real as other scale RCs, but it is well made very similar to the real car. This is a great video.👍👍👍

    wish they went *really* scale built more like a Tamiya Sand Scorcher, rear motor plugging into a trans-axle like a boxer engine does. VW's always did surprisingly well off road if you know how to drive them, a model would too, AWD is such a blasphemy to old VW's lol.

    An uncle of mine had one -- think it must have been a split rear window. It had no fuel gauge; when it started to run out, you pulled over a small lever under the dash somewhere to open a small reserve tank to get enough to find the nearest filling station. I trust this is reproduced in this one, it's incredibly accurate. (!)

    Never noticed before ..But( engage rivet counter mode) th front wing sculpting behind the headlights looks a bit over pronounced/odd/pointy at the top end and no idea what the round recess on top of the wing is for.. However a very few early split screens did have a chassis part built from kubelwagen parts and did have the reduction boxes , so may have had some of these odd features ,as holdovers from earlier production practices/tooling.. sorry edit to add, it also appears to have a late model front hood ,rather than a earlier pointed one , the rear engine cover appears to be correct as an early pointed bonnet with popes nose numberlight.
