You don't know of things like 'Top Gun' RC plane competitions where people can take years to scratch build a plane. Unlike these drift cars that use store bought chassis, the whole airframe including tires and wheels must be custom-made from raw materials.
This R34 is a master piece drift missile XD After years into the hobby, I find myself more interested in this type of detailed build rather than the pure performance build.
Shoutout to Trevor! Amazing driver, amazing builder, i love all his builds super detailed stuff and one of the nicest master drifters at the track! Love seeing guys like this in the hobby always smiling. KPop awesome of Show us your whip! Keep getting these guys to whip it out😂
Saved a load of Monster Energy cans over the years been planning on making a 6th scale tin shell after seeing this might just get onto it this year! 😁👌
Sick, reminds me years ago on the scale4x4 forums a guy built his own hilux body out of aluminum baking pans formed over carved wood molds using smudgers. Now we've got 3d printers so the molds are the easy part. The reason he used aluminum baking pans instead of pop cans is it behaves a lot more like sheet metal at this scale pop cans are too thick for realistic denting. The thinner stuff is also easier to form I think he actually started sourcing specific thickness sheet aluminum eventually but, that was probably well over 10 years ago now so my memory is a bit cloudy haha.
yeah we talked about it. the pop cans offer more memory.. for crawling i can see your softer aluminum working better. but for slamming and sliding across the walls of the drift track you need something that atleast wants to keep it's shape.
@@kpopRC Good point, one slam at speed would destroy it. Maybe the sub frame sections made of cans with thinner body panels for realistic dents while keeping structural integrity.
Oh! You know I had the same idea for drift rc and crawlers. But my idea was having a cage to screw it too but didn’t have a 3D print and the programs to tinker with it. But I like this idea of just having a body cut and shaped and screwed together! Thanks for this! Awesome video and awesome rc car!
amazing build, great skill to form aluminum cans to a missile form, 3rd printed engines look amazing. i really need to get back into the hobby and build the 3-4 kits i have sitting in box and a few other body shells...
Oh man, that’s extremely cool! I also had the idea of “BeamNG” rc cars. I also startet, making a paper FordRS200 body for my rc car but I didn’t finish it yet. You’re the first one who shares this on the internet! 😊
I’m also starting a new UA-cam channel (Right now I’m using that of my dad) there, I will also upload a Video about the paper car body! My channel WILL BE: RGBleeding (Sorry, kpop RC😅)
As a kid i used to use chicken mesh fencing and a thin layer of paper mache then spray paint it. Then me and my brother would face off and play destruction derby. The chicken mesh and paper would still crumple and hold the damage. Never thought to use cans at the time.

@@thirtythreeeyes8624 I wonder if I couldn’t make a 3d printed stamp mold, I have a s14 body with a s15 front end but the body is too unstable to slice in my 3d printer so that might just work
@@hotboyracing I've seen people make sheet metal stamp molds with 3d printed before and it works good even with thick stuff, it should work great for thin aluminum. Just find a model of the body online, scan an rc body if you can or convert a model from a video game using something like blender or z-brush and then break the body into all the segments with positive and negative molds. It's a good amount of work but, once done you could pop out body panels in a matter of seconds.
sorry man. this is just the kind of thing that the price of entry is to figure it out. not a how too video but a video meant to inspire. figure it out, it's half the hobby.
the Swiffer cam rules all my friend. ua-cam.com/video/KOEZY5OLDWk/v-deo.html shameless plug. camera is a osmo action 2 with rock steady on. if we had more light it would be even more glorious.
I’m attempting to build a tin can rc drift body at the moment, I don’t have the benefit of the lean top half of the car so I’m kinda struggling right now
imagine putting like a beer can body on a traxxas slash or something like that and crashing with it. would be satisfying but sad to see al youre work go
There's 2 people in hobbies.
One; that buys everything they can.
Two: the guy that figures out ways to create anything they can with imagination
Sometimes 3, the third Is the guys that are both, those who can buy what they can and use it to create everything they can imaginable to life !
@@street_mano808 and theres the cheap dude too
The drift scene is hands down the most custom styles out of any form of RC. The creative talent is on another level.
Its the only form of rc other than fpv drones that i do any more, competition crawling was similar in that way but now its all scale crawlers
One of the automotive scene where shitbox looking car = cool

@@izack0128shitboxes are always cool, man. Unless you’re one of those “car guys” I guess.
Idk man, the hard body crawler guys are next level
wow thats literally the coolest rc drift car ive ever seen
i would do the same except with an s13 body
I love the mirror hanging off. That thing is beyond cool. I never would have thought of that. I freakin love it.
Just awesome. When I saw this, I knew you'd feature it!
Building your body from pop/beer cans is flipping awesome! Now thats a rc drifter!
This R34 is a master piece drift missile XD
After years into the hobby, I find myself more interested in this type of detailed build rather than the pure performance build.
and this car preforms. holy. that balance between scale and drivability is key.
All of these drift guys bring scale fun and ideas to a whopping whole different level that is super amazing. Just amazing.
As an offroad rc basher I gotta respect the creativity, also the video is really well made!
Shoutout to Trevor! Amazing driver, amazing builder, i love all his builds super detailed stuff and one of the nicest master drifters at the track! Love seeing guys like this in the hobby always smiling. KPop awesome of Show us your whip! Keep getting these guys to whip it out😂
it would make watching competition more fun if the metal body kit thing caught on. its a really cool idea
This is awesome, I had this idea years ago as a kid, but with no way to actually do it I kinda forgot about it
Very cool to see this guy made it work
Trevor is the man! dude can drive and has all the knowledge behind him thats for sure! Another great video KPOP
The FPV part with the panning synced to the steering was simply the best. They should show us how to set it up!
Watching makes me wish I hadn't sold my RC drift car 😢. Had no one and no one to drift with.
Same , I used to have a blue R34 , I miss that RC so much.
Saved a load of Monster Energy cans over the years been planning on making a 6th scale tin shell after seeing this might just get onto it this year! 😁👌
Great "segment" idea and awesome video as always! Cheers to beers 🍺🍺

excellent use of drum n bass
I have been waiting for someone to make dent-able RC Demolition Derby car Bodies.
That was a sick video. 👍 I would love to see more videos of the drift spot and builds.
Great video as always KPOP - I watched that crash in slow mo - it's so spectacular!!!
Amazing video and separate thumbs up for the music selection, really liked it thru the show
i fucking love the creativity here on the dentable body
Props to the filming and choice of music 👌🏻
Body looks dope!
Is there a Nobel prize for rc drifting? pretty sure this guy just won it
he builds the best cars for sure. and they are 100% functional.

These look so so real!!!
That's impressive, luv it🏴
Dope ass clips as always k pop always love being in the vids 🤟🏻
That was a great video kpop the edit was so sick keep up the great content
Well thats cool AF. Happy New Year my doods. Cheers to beers.
I wonder how to bent the beer cans into shape
thats incredibly gangster
great Idea....I might *caughcaugh* borrow and run with it down the line :D
Super smart dude 👍🏽
i would love to see how he builds this, its awesome!
Well that definitely took some time dope! Ya'll ever think of coming to the deep south??? Like Florida?? That would be awesome!
you need to make one ASAP, he should also do one of those juice box ordeals to make it have sound
Thank you now I know what I’m going to make the body out of on my fully 3d printed drift car with a front mounted motor and it’s super scale
It’s even got McPherson style struts ua-cam.com/users/shortsgbP-yMinGD8?si=9Kjig-bNuRkzIcQS

@@thirtythreeeyes8624 I kinda wish there was a underside view so you could see how everything’s held together 😂
totally pinching this idea haha, sick 👌
I’ve been trying to do that with a crawler and a turkey pan
Love the drift guys. I wouldn’t have access to all of the scale parts for my 10th scale rally/on-road build.
Ima need a tutorial cus this is 🔥 and i need something like this
At least some general tipps would be awesome. Like, is it formed over a 3d printed model or something like that?
I LOVE IT.😍
how do i make this type of pop can car man i wanna do that but idk how he gets it to stay together
sorry man. this is just the kind of thing that the price of entry is to figure it out. not a how too video but a video meant to inspire. figure it out, it's half the hobby.
I wanna do this now
should make one frolm spray paint cans so it can rust and its a bit sturdier
cool buids
time to crack open some tall boys and make a new body lol
car is amazing,absolutly fantastic,i wanted to ask what song is it?
there are a few in here. Octane - STRLGHT. 242 Mph - Ruzer, UCT - T-Shirts & Sweats
Yooo this is a sick feature and edit my dood!
What did you use to get the footage on car for lead and chasing on track?
the Swiffer cam rules all my friend. ua-cam.com/video/KOEZY5OLDWk/v-deo.html shameless plug. camera is a osmo action 2 with rock steady on. if we had more light it would be even more glorious.
thats sick i might make one lmao
I’m attempting to build a tin can rc drift body at the moment, I don’t have the benefit of the lean top half of the car so I’m kinda struggling right now
oh that's cool. with no lexan as a template you're just playing with tin cans.
Cool 👍🏻
How did they use the cans? Was it a mold or something? Would love to make one for my slash
hand bent with simple hand tools. screws and shoe goo holds it together. when i recover from pneumonia ill get an explanation from trevor.
@@kpopRCWould love to hear the explanation!
Yip!!!!!🍻🍻
hows the weight of this car, like is it harder to drift because it weighs more
the body is lighter than lexan.
How did he do the back thing fold
i don't really understand your question. it's made of tin can in the back. so it folds when it hits the wall. nothing special about it.
@@kpopRC yes that was exactly my question thank you for understanding it was a bit hard to paraphrase the question
I thought it was a real car at first from the video
imagine putting like a beer can body on a traxxas slash or something like that and crashing with it. would be satisfying but sad to see al youre work go
the damage in this case is the intended out come. just crash the slash into a wall you'll get the same result. lol.
Wait how did he do that carbon fiber? That shits real isn’t it…where the hell do I get one!
Now put small engines in them from toyan
lol. every one that does, it looks like ass. rather it function than just make noise and sputter oil all over everything. you should do it though!
I want a drift car 😢
buy a used one from the track. the sakura d5 mr chassis is 120 dollars.
I thought it be like $1000 or some shit
How you just gonna skip over the grampy gold GS in the parking lot😢
easy.
I just need a friend
Seemed a lot cooler in my head. I think if the metal was a tiny bit thicker it would work better. It's almost the same as a normal shell as it is.
not really. lexan literally bounces off the wall. this soaks it up.
@@kpopRC I think I just expected it to not be as 'springy'. It's still a step above polycarbonate. Maybe even a step above a hard body too.
That shit would only be on my car for like 2 runs, I would need one out of titanium. And it would still dent...
sounds like you need more practice
WooW that Silvia definitely not good
first
Edit: I know its dumb
I think this should be like the new standard material for drift RC bodies. The lexan bodies and "no touches" rules are getting boring.
the aluminum is actually lighter. which is crazy.
wth is this music fam
