If you have any suggestions for upgrades, or parts to make this better.. please use this comment to share them. I can then come back here for advice for part 2 :) ta muchly
Does that Dumbo Rc radio have fail-safe for the nitro engines? Make sure to set it at full brake. People seem t forget about it and have 1/4 scale missiles flying out of control chasing children and dogs. 😂
FINALLY !!! This is the car i saw when i was younger in a park, but could never find anything on it…….I would say this is the car that got me into RC’s ( truthfully my dad gave Tandy RC’s when i was kid like the porsche 962 “pulp fiction” car) but this one opened a new world for me….Thank you Phil you made a grown-ass man cry in a good way Thank you
It's a neat old car. As you said getting running was a big positive. Replacing the servos will be a lot of work. Considering their age it's not surprising they would fail. I am looking forward to future adventures with this vintage car.
So good to see you put oil in the cylinder before running. No one is doing it and its so important if it has been sitting for years :) Thanks for sharing.
I was a car mechanic for a bit after leaving school… so have rebuilt the odd engine here n there. Certainly important for an engine that’s not been run in a long time
Id run it on 3 servos. 1 for throttle 1 of breaks 1 for steering. Sounds more complicated but its actually not. It gets rid of alot of linkages and deletes the throttle cable.
I don't know much about them as a brand but I DO remember 1/4 scale R/C gas vehicles were $2500 to $3500 CDN in the late 80's early 90's. Yes, first thing I would have done is replace all the electronics and make sure you have no issues with the ignition system on the engine. Not sure if it has points or hall effect sensor for the firing.
@@TomleyRC YOu know as well as I do if it's points, a little 400 gr sandpaper will make the world of difference. You did great tho getting it going even for a short run like you did.
Got me an FTX Tracer from back in the garage days 😂 not really a fan of the body shape, defo 80’s vibe BUT if you were to spray it white and add some new decals it could almost be an old Metro 6R4 rally car? 🤩
Sooo cool. Love those tyres too. Or tires as you need to type into Google to find anything like them. Some sort of old kart dirt track rubber maybe? Don't look cheap 😬
This brings me back i had one when i was 10 years old i still have it and it runs im now making parts for these at no charge to anyone who wants parts they dont make cars like this anymore its a shame 😢😢😢😢😢😢
The annoying slow always a headache class........any cheap 550 can brushed 2s rc car will destroy a nitro........but the trill of the build and love of the hobby keeps them alive
Hey Phil, this wasnt a fail. You got an almost 40 year old rc car to run. Thats a win in my book and the this old car Is very cool. Cant wait to see what you do with it. Dont sell yourself short man. Not a fail. Great video. I always look forward to your videos because you do a great job, even if you dont like Traxxas.😁
That's quite the piece of engineering going on there. I've done petrol rc's years ago but they're always a pain to get running, every time I'd run one they always needed tinkering which spoilt the fun for me. I look forward to seeing how you get on with it all the same.
This was a pretty sweet video, that car is definitely a pretty interesting design very cool mechanically. The body style makes me think of the pikes peak race cars of the 80s. I can't wait to see more of this when it gets warmer. Great episode brother, much love and respect from New York!
@@TomleyRC that sounds awesome, definitely looking forward to seeing what you have planned for it! PS great work on the rc advent calendar it was definitely a first and seemed like it was a hit. I know I didn't miss a video of it absolutely loved it man, keep up the great ideas your killing it.
That's far from a fail, you know what to do now. Also you could make a muffler for the exhaust, just a can with a hole for the exhaust to go in to, lots of holes for the out and steel wool inside. It's basic but it should do something. 😀👍
Put a new spark plug in it will help you tune it better. Even though it doesn't look bad the porcelain inside from sitting gets micro cracks when heating back up I have to replace my 2 stroke jet ski plugs every season for the same reason.
@@TomleyRC also I love your content I did not realize how I started the initial comment. I do not want to seem rude by any means. Your content help make the choice of buying the USA 1 when it came out and I love the thing. plus a bunch of rarrlo cars. I went half blind 6 years ago and RC has helped me with relearning Dept perception. Thank for doing a great job.
Sorry for the multiple comments. I would run a hotter spark plug. Especially in the cold conditions. Also, make sure the spark plug gap is correct with a feeler gauge. I'm guessing 0.030" is common for these engines, or it will be hard to cold start every time.
I just revived 2 nitro buggies one 1/8 and a 1/16 2 speed both 12yrs old and now there clean a few parts replaced and workn like a charm that car is a beast for its age
That’s a beautiful rig besides the body🤣 my votes for electric.max5 combo.nsdrc servo.Porsche body imo would look bada$$🤪 can’t wait to see this rig finished,however you decide to do so😊
That was definitely a success. 30 year old 2 stroke RC, and you got it going. Can't wait to see it ripping around. Man, is it loud though. Any noise complaints, hahaha. Cheers Phil have an awesome day.
Oh man that's so cool ! Watching you tinker makes me want to get my old HPI Baja out and have it running again. Taylor Racing engine, upgraded servos other than that Idk if I would change much else.
@@TomleyRC I'm just poking at you. I wouldn't change the motor unless it fails. It's super cool original equipment. At e try to track down a cooler looking body shell 🤷🏼 the Porsche body would be epic
The rims and tires are sick looking. It seems like the larger you go up in scale the better the tires and rims get. Awesome car. Definitely worth a bunch.
What a great piece of RC history! Really looking forward to the Part 2!!! I'd love to see you completely restore this old girl! I just recently got back into the hobby, and all I remember from way back when I was a kid my neighbor did RC stuff, so I would tag along with him and his kid to local club get-togethers. There were a bunch of adults tinkering around with petrol stuff like this, since elec-tech was nowhere near what we have now and ICE cars weren't nearly so compact. I wanna say there were at least 3-4 guys that had 1/4-scale stuff like this and raced on weekends in parking lots alongside the folks running NiCd buggies, but they had a circuit set up that was HUGE by comparison. I live in Florida, so we also went down to Daytona's oval and ran some of them on the big banked turns, same as NASCAR and then dropping down to the infield for some "road course" layout. I really want to see that again someday, except with my own car barreling through the turn!
I’ve got a bad ass hpi savage with a dynamite.28 big red in it and I’ve had all of these issues and it sits on my shelf .. I did just get a new body for it I’ll paint up this winter though, and maybe get it going this spring
Great to see that you finally got around to this one :) I have two DWA 2wd ones and a kit to make one of them 4wd. One is the same rally version (apart from the 4wd) that you have and one is an onroad version with an even worse suspension setup. Be aware that the shock towers on these break super easily and are hard to find replacements for.
Nice to know there are more about. I’m hoping this will be quite stable once running properly, so not chance of a crash. Might even be worth getting someone to 3D Scan the shocks to make some better ones
@@TomleyRC I was thinking about remaking the shock towers in aluminium, but haven't gotten that far yet. Should be a good boost in weight to strength ratio tho. On the other hand, weight wise these are made like Sherman tanks 😆
That thing is freeking sweet. And yeah, I'd say the fact that it started at all was a win for the first try. Can't wait to see this thing really running.
Very Nice throw back there Phil!! Brought back some amazing memories of these 1/4 scale rigs rippin around the old rally track!! We ran them back in 90-94 roughly! Ours were FG but still awesome fun!!! Great find and the price !!! 😱WOW!!!!
keep going on this so cool.one advice the muffler and the air filter must be in perfect sinc. the intake and the exaust is very important for 2 stroke motor. the exaust it's what push the air for the motor work better. seal the muffler better and fine tune the carb. consider change the piston segments and verify the head for deep scratches that causes loss of compresson. pardon for my english by i am portuguese. good work
I'm sure someone had already mentioned this but if not. You could hook up the throttle with 2 rods and 90° servo horn. Get fancy with some springs so you don't bottom out the throttle barrel or damage the servo
Shame is didnt come with a full set of hoosier tyres Should try and find some for it! Ether way cool car! New to your channel by the way and absolutely loving your content Relatively new to the hobby and have found your channel a great source of information and entertainment Keep up the great work mate! Viewing from Australia 🦘
Really nice and unique old school quarter scale! I had a SVM model around the year 2001 that was chain driven, the car was massively huge... Miss those Rc days, thanks for taking me down memory lane ☝️
Considering this is from the 80's it is very well designed. I have seen quarter scale ''pan'' cars before but never one like this. Very interesting! Must have costed a good penny! Thanks for sharing.
For the exhaust id suggest welding some small washers or nuts on both manifold and pipe and attach via springs similar to what a snowmobile exhaust would have
I was loosing the will to live watching you trying to start that thing 😂 So many memories as a kid with a nitro engine that seemed to have ADHD and a mind of its own . Acoms , ripmax catalogs and the lovely smell of diesel aircraft engine. Happy days 😃

Do a build with this with an 8s conversion ;)
if you do it like Electric classic cars, design it as a bolt in replacement for the engine, then you can restore the car afterwards.
Does that Dumbo Rc radio have fail-safe for the nitro engines? Make sure to set it at full brake. People seem t forget about it and have 1/4 scale missiles flying out of control chasing children and dogs. 😂
80cc Taylor engine.
Get an R64 body for it

Yes, gonna need a good going over ready for next time 👌
Will be a lot of work? I could replace the servos in an hour lol
Servos should be easy to find and replace.
“Welcome to the garage” are some of my favorite videos going back to WPL that you’ve done my friend!
😎🤘
That's gonna be bad ass once you get it straight. That tuned pipe sounds awesome. For the throttle I'd go with a a bell crank to a rod to the carb.
Good idea 👌
I love watching these old gas videos it reminds why I don’t run them, you can’t beat the sound tho
Yeah.. loud, but cool to get going
So good to see you put oil in the cylinder before running. No one is doing it and its so important if it has been sitting for years :) Thanks for sharing.
I was a car mechanic for a bit after leaving school… so have rebuilt the odd engine here n there. Certainly important for an engine that’s not been run in a long time
That is a cool rig.
🤘
Definitely put a Taylor RC motor and components on it make it super badass!!
I like the idea of keeping it stock ‘ish’
2:36 I think nothing is missing there, floating brake discs is a common technology
Yeah, they seemed to function okay actually after a little tweaking
Id run it on 3 servos.
1 for throttle
1 of breaks
1 for steering.
Sounds more complicated but its actually not. It gets rid of alot of linkages and deletes the throttle cable.
Yeah, good idea. I think my FG has 3 servos
That’s bloody awesome! The body looks reminiscent of a Metro 6R4.
I agree 👌
6R4❤
I don't know much about them as a brand but I DO remember 1/4 scale R/C gas vehicles were $2500 to $3500 CDN in the late 80's early 90's.

Good video proper old School engineering
Yeah, love it
Got me an FTX Tracer from back in the garage days 😂 not really a fan of the body shape, defo 80’s vibe BUT if you were to spray it white and add some new decals it could almost be an old Metro 6R4 rally car? 🤩
Yes, would be good to get it looking more like a 6R4
Can't wait to see this full refurbished!
Me too!
I love it, esp the body it’s very different
Me too 👌
Sooo cool. Love those tyres too. Or tires as you need to type into Google to find anything like them. Some sort of old kart dirt track rubber maybe? Don't look cheap 😬
Yeah, I need to find some replacements!
I had a quick Google, my word they were dear! Proper cool but dear.
This brings me back i had one when i was 10 years old i still have it and it runs im now making parts for these at no charge to anyone who wants parts they dont make cars like this anymore its a shame 😢😢😢😢😢😢
Yeah, proper old school vibes
Definitely not a fail! That thing is beautiful!
Yes, after all the work.. it was certainly a success
Theres just something special having a working engine inside these small cars. I love nitro and gas powered RC´s, just on a class of its own!
Yeah, does ad some character to them for sure
The annoying slow always a headache class........any cheap 550 can brushed 2s rc car will destroy a nitro........but the trill of the build and love of the hobby keeps them alive
you and Kev should do some collabs man you all have the coolest RCs dude
Thats awesome! I want one.
I really like the body. It's so 80's. Don't change it. It's too cool. Keep at it. Can't wait to see it finished.
Yeah.. maybe just sone better lights, and maybe a few 3D printed pieces
Yes i remember the garage : good looking car yes new lights servo and and more a lot of work nice one phil
Yes.. a little bit of work to do
That's a really cool big little blast from the past you have there! Loved seeing the electronics get upgraded!
It’s gonna be even better with new servos 👌

Yes, those were the days 👌
I’ve been here since the garage days, annoying you for years now 😂
Haha
Awesome, can't wait to see it running properly....
Me too!
Can't wait for the next episode of this project. It needs a porsche body on it, that would be awesome.
Be awesome to find a Porsche body 👌
Careful!! Traxxas might claim that exhaust design!!!! 😮
Haha
The front of the shell looks reminiscent of the metro 6R4 rally car
Yes, i thought that. Maybe I need to 3D print some parts 👌
@@TomleyRC if you do decide to go that route it has to be the blue/white compuserve livery (ish)
I remember seeing this for sale. I would definitely put a new plug in there and change the ht lead make sure the spark is a strong as it should be.
Yeah, getting a parts list ready 👌
Not a fail, very cool rig
Cheers Ben

❤ spring load the throttle and brakes so if you have an electrical failure it will mechanically shut off and stop . Good luck Phil 🤞 ,bob 😊
That was cool sometimes the vintage stuff can be fun as well.👍
Yes, good to get the old things running again
Hi tomley love your videos I think a video on the traxxas slash 1/16 would be great

Great effort Phil. Gas and Nitro are always projects. Even more so on cold, wet days. Looking forward to seeing more of it.

🤘
I Would Like To See This BEAST Up And Running Again With It's Bodyshell On. 😃👍.
The plan for this video was to at least rip it around for a bit with the body on… just didn’t quiet go to plan. Part 2 for sure 👌
@@TomleyRC looking forward
Honestly, its one of the coolest rcs ive ever seen. Cant wait to see how it rips
That’s freaking amazing !!!!!!!!!!!

Nice! I love my FG… but this thing dwarfs it lol
keep going on this so cool.one advice the muffler and the air filter must be in perfect sinc. the intake and the exaust is very important for 2 stroke motor. the exaust it's what push the air for the motor work better. seal the muffler better and fine tune the carb. consider change the piston segments and verify the head for deep scratches that causes loss of compresson. pardon for my english by i am portuguese. good work
From the past with soul 🔥🤩
🤘
I'm sure someone had already mentioned this but if not. You could hook up the throttle with 2 rods and 90° servo horn. Get fancy with some springs so you don't bottom out the throttle barrel or damage the servo
Thats awesome. Cant wait to see how it turns out!
Me too!
Shame is didnt come with a full set of hoosier tyres
Should try and find some for it!
Ether way cool car!
New to your channel by the way and absolutely loving your content
Relatively new to the hobby and have found your channel a great source of information and entertainment
Keep up the great work mate!

Thanks dude. And yeah.. would be good to find some replacement tyres. Wheels are cool… so would be nice to keep them on it
OMG, that's awesome!!!
A cool project for sure 👌
I love that body! I'll take it :) Reminds me of an old Peugeot rally car. It's definitely a project, but it will be worth it.
It's BAD ASS! You can do it! Looking forward to you working your mojo on this machine!
Really nice and unique old school quarter scale! I had a SVM model around the year 2001 that was chain driven, the car was massively huge... Miss those Rc days, thanks for taking me down memory lane ☝️
Piece of museum history, get a gps on it i reckon 15mph 👍
I reckon at least 18 😅
Nice job. Can't wait for the skate park bash... ;o)
Haha
Loving the old school rear bike reflectors used for lights!
I remember "welcome to the garage". All the WPLs and MN stuff. Good times!!!
What an epic car! never seen one before, very cool (:
Yes, so cool 👌
Considering this is from the 80's it is very well designed.
I have seen quarter scale ''pan'' cars before but never one like this. Very interesting!
Must have costed a good penny!
Thanks for sharing.
I love how it’s sat there making your Tesla smell of petrol
yeah haha.. and I should have had my camera when I pulled up to fill fuel can up earlier on in the day. Some strange looks for sure
Loved this video, I ain’t much for vintage cars but the sheer size and it being petrol perked my interest ❤
Still waiting on an update for this build! Love it!
The angle of the shocks is absurd!!!! The A arms would flex more than the absorber, that's 80's tech!!
Yeah… weird haha
For the exhaust id suggest welding some small washers or nuts on both manifold and pipe and attach via springs similar to what a snowmobile exhaust would have
Really looking forward to Part 2 of this, personally I think restoring/upgrading old RC engineering is great… 🏎️ 💨
Oh it’s sick btw!
That is so cool! The #1 RC channel never disappoints!
That’s not what my Wife says haha
40+ Years old and it still works that well. I would commit to a full tear down and rebuild.
