    this video reminds me of my rc life which started in 1994.i remember when a 1700mah ni-cad SCRC battery was like a perfect battery for racing and plenty of duration for bashing!i remember buying my first upgrade Ko propo cx-7 esc and trinity 10x3 modified brushed motor.i was not sleeping because of the excitement i had!!i was running my traxxaa rad2 in the street and cars stopped and ask me all the time.good times.this video is so nostalgic and a bit sad for me because life was simpler back then at least for us rc friends.thank you for reading and keep rc where it belongs,in our hearts with so many memories.

    Thank you for sharing your life in rc cars for the last 30 years with us.
    Your talent for photography and editing shows clearly from a young age, maturing into a world class rc car video maker you are today.
    Like a fine wine, you only get better as time goes by :).

    Thanks for sharing your Tamiya retrospective! It certainly brought back memories of my first purchase in 1984/85: The Tamiya Fox. Today, it sits proudly on display in my home computer office. Glad to meet another "old-timer" in the rc hobby ;) Cheers!

    I love it, I am a few years younger and those cars were all out of reach in the 80s. Now I have a little boy and recently found out the Lunchbox is still around, so it'll be my first proper RC car. I'll have a ton of fun with my little one. I really enjoyed your pictures, brought back visions of the 80s. Thank you!

    • @Matteomeier

    So lucky to have all those rc cars at that age. I remember as a kid my uncle had a blackfoot and a sand scorcher he always tinkered with and that got me in love with the hobby. Never got hobby grade rcs but i never lost my lking for it and plan to get into it so my son can enjoy it. Great vid thanks.

    Thanks Matteo, that stirred up some old memories. I wish I'd taken photos right from when I got my first Tamiya, the Grasshopper 31 years ago, well it will be 31 years in june. It's videos like yours, that drive me to put more up, and make a better job of each one.
    Thank you so much for the trip down memory-lane

    Hi Matteo, I'm in my 40's and my first Tamiya RC car was the Frog also. It was indeed a kind of magical time for me and a dream to finally own one of these fantastic RC kits. Some 3-4 years earlier around 1980 I was standing in our local hobby store watching Tamiya's promotional video on the Sand Scorcher and Holiday Buggy. Prior to this I had RC cars from Radio Shack but they were toys. When I saw the Tamiya RC cars in 1980 I knew I had to have one. By 84 I had the Frog and I had a blast with that thing. Many more Tamiya RC cars followed and some non Tamiya too, however Tamiya RC holds a special place in my heart since it captivated my imagination and thrilled me as a young lad....
    Great video's Matteo! And thanks for sharing your Tamiya RC beginnings with us.

    • @Matteomeier
      @Matteomeier  9 лет назад

      howlingmaddmurdock Thank you so much for so many good words! We have nearly the same RC history! And I think it's the same with my passion for Tamiya, the early years in the 80es was a magic time!

  • @Del350K4
    @Del350K4 10 лет назад +1

    Thank you for coming out from behind the camera and introducing us to your incredible rc history. Such an impeccable standard of build, right from the very beginning! Your early creativity is expressed not only in the composition of the photos but also in the album itself. It´s astonishing to think how, in the pre-digital age, we were building, driving and photographing rc cars (often Tamiyas) in different places and countries all over the world, having parallel experiences in isolation. I remember lying in the grass taking nearly a whole film of photos as my girlfriend jumped my Midnight Pumpkin past me, then going home with no idea whether we´d got a single useable photo...often we didn´t!
    I think it´s testimony to to excellence of this video that it has so far had eight views and eight "likes"...

    • @Matteomeier
      @Matteomeier  10 лет назад

      Thanks for your great words! It was not easy, I had to force my self out, to came out from behind the camera!
      It's nice to hear all the good memories and stories behind our hobby all around the world!

    • @Del350K4
      @Del350K4 10 лет назад

      One question - why was it that in the early days you just bought Tamiyas? I wondered whether it was because other brands were often focussed upon racing whereas Tamiya gave us cars designed to be fun rather than competitive, or whether it was the fact that Tamiya offered us such wonderful scale bodies. I certainly bought my Midnight Pumpkin all those years ago because I´d fallen in love with the body!

    • @Matteomeier
      @Matteomeier  10 лет назад

      Del350K4 At first it was only coincidence. I went with my parents back then to a small hobby store, and the staff recommended me the Frog. So we bought them. With this, my passion for Tamiya starts. But of course, after then, I own not only Tamiya's. In the early 90es I moved in to nitro cars and own some cars from Kyosho, Graupner and others, and also electrics from Kyosho. But over all the time I saw a different in the quality in the kits from Tamiya to others. In all the years I had never a Tamiya kit with missing some parts in it, or some faults in the manual or so. With others I had many things like this. (For example: My daughter bought some time ago an SCX-10 from Axial. It was impossible to put together the front axles, because some parts are wrong in the kit. And later by assembling the gears it was another wrong explanation in the manual)
      Of course the detailed bodies of Tamiya cars I like very much, and its a big different to other brands, and another reason.
      And since I restart my rc car activities I concentrate me on Tamiya, because I have no time and effort to to everything. And without the re-releases maybe I won't move back in the hobby....

    • @Del350K4
      @Del350K4 10 лет назад +1

      The re-releases were a stroke of marketing genius. I still get a lovely warm feeling whenever I think that I could buy my own Sand Scorcher, Brat, or any of the other cars I wanted as a teenager but couldn´t afford, right now! All I have to do is get out my debit card and I can buy the car of my dreams, sitting on my own sofa, here and now! (Actually, I´d better not think about that too much...)

    Thanks Matteo, nice video and photos, no digital cameras back then! Ah the memories. Love the Williams F1 car. My first proper RC was a Madcap that I picked up second hand in a swap for a Commodore 64 disk drive and joy stick! Later on I had a TL01 Calsonic Skyline R33. I don't have those anymore but currently have a TA05 Mobil1 SC430 and F104W Lotus 102B which I used to race.

    Loved this video! I had a blackfoot as my first RC, probably around '92 when I was really young, 24 years later and I still have an RC collection, used to race 1/10 TC at a high level but I just 'bash' now, always wanted a Clodbuster but couldn't afford one at the time, I might treat myself for old times sake now they have re-released the kit.
    Your video brought back lots of great memories for me, so thank you!

    Amazing look back Matteo!! I enjoyed it and was very entertain ed! Except for the Porsche 959, I had all of those in da 80's. It was a great, simpler time, that unfortunately is gone forever. I think that's why people like us enjoy those Tamiya earlier vehicles so much. They were a big part of happier days!

    Matteo, thanks for ALL the GREAT rc videos!! Brought back many memories from when I was a kid. Purchased my first RC car back in the mid 80's. It was also the Tamiya Frog.

    Vielen Dank für dieses Video. Mit meinen 42 Lenzen hab ich mir gestern einen Tamiya Bausatz gekauft in Erinnerung an die 80er Jahre. Damals habe ich mir einen Grasshopper zusammengespart...mein erstes RC Auto! Die Videos von Ihnen und ihr Kanal sind hervorragend und eigentlich müsste Tamiya schon längst an Ihre Tür geklopft haben um Ihnen zu danken:-))

    Excellent video! Thanks for the throwback! My first car was the Grasshopper and that’s when I caught the bug. Started in 1984 and haven’t stopped yet. With the re releases I’ve been able to restore my favorites, The Fox, Frog, Bigwig and my Monsterbeetle. You are absolutely right it was a different time back then. I’m not into the RTRs as anyone can open up a box and start driving but it takes passion to build, like I’ve always said...”if I can’t build it” I’m not getting it! Cheers my friend

    My first RC was in 1988 from Kyosho. It was the Ultima buggy. Then in 1993 I got the Tamiya Manta Ray and in 1994 I got a Clod Buster. In 2004 came again to the hobby and bought the new release back then Avante Black edition. Now came back for the third time with my son and I brought the 2008 Manta Ray classic release. Just now I knew that the original release date of the Manta Ray is same my birthday:)
    Great history video keep it up

    I think you were very lucky with the time period you enjoyed cars, 1986 was the vintage year for the best cars and you had several of them, Porsche 959, clod and bigwig!, 3 of the best, i can see that you drove them hard as well!, i never seen a monster beetle so high in the air!!. Excellent video. 10/10.
