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.
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
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.
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!
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 .
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..
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!
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.
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
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... 👌🏻😍😍👍🏻
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
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
Ohh man i remember that bug and the Kyosho 1/5 cars, always drooling over them in the catalouges when i was a kid.
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
Those Tires absolutely shredded that terrain......🤘🏼🤠

Loved that.And the Beetle is one of my all time favourite Cars!!🔥💯🔥💯🇬🇧👍✌
Man that’s so sick dude, we need stuff like this now a days!!!
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
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 🙂
Fg cars are awesome!
That’s sweet little buggy
Love that 80s style - looks sooo sick in the dust
Sick! Great video, Loving the slow motion shots. 👍
The best tamiya rip I've seen
KPOPRC ROCKS!
Awesome video. I guess I am old I remember the FG Marder and Beetle . Go Cardinal Racing...

AWESOME! Would love to see one of these two stroke pumping!
Nice
Nice RIP before the montage rc rip....😄😄 #Connected
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
I gotta get myself a new Brushless FG 1/5 it's in my top 3 with a Felony and a 1/8 crawler....Great vid Dude so jealous of the sceneries
Very, very nice this Volkswagen Beetle.
Hell yeah brother
Where can i find that body and what chassis will work I love the car!!!!!!!!
not sure. it's 30 years old. lol
another rare large scale r/c is the MRC Nitro Thunder King, less than 1200 nitro conversion kits made
daamn been a while since ive had time to watch you, this is sick! wish i had the money for a electric 5th scale...
wo0T! Love the 5th scales!
Very sweet
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 .
Nice video Bro'👍🙂👌
I’m just here for the farts and you didn’t disappoint 👍
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.
Where u get those!!! shoes😎the wheels and tires on the dirt buggy
I own a team associated, creepy crawler, from 2009, nothing better than old r.c. crawlers. Runs and crawls well.
heck yeah swamppy!
Great editing and production on the video by the way .
thanks bud!
Super vidéo, super collection

Oh man! This was so worth the wait
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.

Why all in slow mo
it's not all in slow motion. but, slow motion is sexy. especially in dust.
Nice Clowncore references
collection ???
There is no minimum number of items for a collection. I have a few more videos coming about a few others.
Great cars, why the devil horns?
why not?
@@surfside75 I’m not stupid 🖕🏽
@@vintagemind8155 -well that's a good thing bro🤙. God bless🤣😂
wHY DO YOU LOOK IN THE mONITOR......LOOKS VERY silly.....look at me....I am inside the cam
meh. focus is more important i guess. manual lenses.
Its a fg marder
says so in the description. 😉
Is that the owner of MCD?? lol
no.
👍👍👍
👍👍👍😁
Thumb up for the fart !
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!
'
just wonder why why that man use a cap on the head
yes?
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.
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. 👍
Shit right in my face

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🤣
