man i’ve been watching your videos since i was like 11. now i’m 22 and i’m still learning with you!! crazy how you went from mini jet engines to these masterpieces!
Those wheels are killer. I made alloys for my fuel rc car 20 years ago on the lathe so they had a solid face, and people were blown away.So cool when things become more accessible and affordable. Always fun to see this build progress in interesting ways.
I 3d printed a set of rims for a cheap rc. They also worked pretty well. You just need to make it thicker than injection molded rims. So many novel ways of fixing things these days.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ Fantastic Job Jonny-Q I love watching you improve on anything you do, it’s a work of art. Keep up the hard work!! 👍👍 Thats ONE-SWEET R/C Car, I really really love it.
For a channel that doesn't talk I've got to say that sponsor section was the best I've ever seen. No scripted BS or blowing sunshine up their collective asses, simply show and demonstrate their website and let their products speak for themselves. Honestly, I wish more channels did sponsor sections this way, then I wouldn't have to skip through them. And that x-pipe and those wheels looked amazing too.
Yeah it’s actually tig, if you pay attention the tungsten rod retracts, and right as it pulls away it makes an arc. The gas is to provide shielding from oxidation.
It's impossible as it is producing pressure, not vacuum. It's running rich and it's normal for fuel or oil to come out of the exhaust on a Nitro engine.
It's actually exhaust gases, it's running quite rich that's why you see liquid. Nitro engines are getting messy with the oil on the fuel and even more when the mixture is rich.
I swear, this is the longest project I've ever followed on RU-vid, and I'm here for it. Your ability to make and engineer anything you need/want is absolutely incredible! I wish I had half the knowledge and drive (no pun intended) that you have. Great work! Can't wait to see more. Turning the bell on, finally!
Ah these videos are always so satisfying to watch! Especially as an engineer that normally has to see all the failed bits of machining that we do lol, its nice to see parts that aren't buggered. I do think though it needs a muffler to smooth out the sound a bit.
I really like this style of sponsorship, factual and informative. I grow tied of creators using shopping channel style bs infomercials. I love that mini welding rig, I can see that being very useful.
Not even 2min into the video, I check the comments for info on the milling machine. Nobody realizes the time it takes to make those tiny gears!!! How long did that mill for? How many bits did you go through. Cool precision engineering as always!
ummm... this has to be the best example of how NOT to make small gears? simple slot saw, generate them in a few minutes each. would need to be separate though. better yet, shove a tool on the head rigidly and shape the things "MAAG" style... at this size, the only sensible way to make two pinions in one piece.
It took around 2 hours for each gear. When I first started making them, I snapped a couple of endmills. Now I know the speeds and feeds, and never break any tools.
10:44 that’s either a “give me cancer now, God” machine, or one that grants wishes. idk yet, but JQ90 does have exceptional skills. nice work as usual, JQ90…I look forward to seeing & hearing it ripping outdoors.
Complete excess. I love it. I came for the micro welding. That x-pipe looks like it will crack quickly considering how large the car is and the forces involved. I'm pretty sure I saw plenty of undercutting. Have you considered practicing on pieces trying to add a bit of really thin filler wire?
Every single update You've made to this AWESOME Car,is outstanding!!! You did an awesome job with everything and now it looks and runs great! Can't wait to see You finish this up with painting the body that's going on it and take er out cruising! Can't wait! Great job Man! : >)
Build looks amazing.. the only thing I'd do now is put a better drive shaft in.. that one looks a bit small and if you add weight to the car and do any heavy breaking or reverse slams... I'd upgrade it.. just my thoughts... nice work !!
You should check out this guy - in the 90’s no less - in England I think he made this 1/8 scale replica of a Ferrari - real running v12 with a manual transmission you have to shift and a clutch you have to press - it even has a little key switch - it’s not an RC car just an exact working 1/8 model, it’s pretty impressive and he machines and built everything from scratch
Damn, it's always a pleasure seeing you machine parts. What a craftsmanship! 👏👏👏 That thing's sound is great! 🤩 It's clear a lot of work goes into these projects! 👌🙏 There were only printing supports, in the exhaust, in the junction area, correct? Cheers everyone!
Yeah that's extremely rare in my experience it's only happened to me twice and the first time it was my fault in the design second was a genuine error on their end on a $250 CNC part that had 6 threaded holes 2 weren't threaded and the other 4 were completely the wrong size from the cad. I sent pictures and video of my what was wrong and what it was supposed to be and proof of everything with timestamps so they can't claim I changed the model and I was sent a replacement in a week and only paid for shipping.
Do you know what would be sick? If you have the budget for it (I assume you do lol) getting a full metal exhaust with the x pipe. And maybe use your spot welder and some stainless steel sheets to make some mufflers
How long did the pipe need to be printed? And how much would it cost ? 🤔 Just asking to be able to compare to fabricating that pipe w/o a metal 3d printer
If you have some stainless stuff to weld next time, try and add some stainless steel welding wire adjacent to the tip and see what happens. Given how powerful it is, i'm of the thought that it might work to weld stuff with. Interesting bench device. If it does good enough welding, this might be a good tool to make a chassis with stainless steel wire.
Jeez Johnny, even the dimes you stack are to scale...! A couple questions about the exhaust: did you forego indexing tabs for any specific reason, and could the pressurizing nipple be incorporated into the x-pipe to simplify tubing or would that negatively affect performance?
This is very cool. I have a question though, It sounds like that motor doesn't have much of a rev range. is that true? it sounds like the motor does either 2k or 4k rpm, can it go any higher or is that topped out?
This project has taken us deeper into a real multi cylinder build than just about anything on RU-vid. The refinements just keep coming while the functionality just keeps increasing.
I love your work, the carson 1:5 On Roar chassis is the basic bass? I also like to build with on-road on Carson ground in scale 1:6 now I'm trying to build a Lamborghini with ABS body and Force 4.5cc engine
are there little turbos for this scale, that would be interesting, though the engine is probably not designed for boost since it already has such high rpms
a great video and great job as usual but precisely The enjomor motor, after all these months Did you manage to get it to run for more than 10 seconds at maximum RPM?
That tank needs a clunk line on a flexible hose. The fuel is never going to stay at the pickup point long enough with the car moving around. That Sullivan tank you took out is perfectly suited for a pressure line. That’s an aircraft tank the vent / pressure tubing is bent to get up into the little bubble on the top to make sure you get a complete fill up.
Hello! Great job, but this type of fuel tank only works well in static conditions. When accelerating, the fuel line will catch air because the fuel is being pushed back.
That exhaust was rough as guts, even after you took out that internal support. I can't see it flowing very well, particularly when you put that joining pipe in reducing the exhausts internal diameter.
Dude I know this will make the project 10x longer and harder but have you considered manufacturing the body the same way you did the chasis? With metal sheet molding? It would make the build so interesting.
you need to get the x pipe closer to the engine for better performance and sounding, then you continue the exhaust to the back of the car so it create more pressure for the venturi effect and even more power
Some question regarding the new fuel tank: maybe you will get fuel delivery issues when accelerating..the fuel will splash in the back of the tank and the exhaust gases will get into the fuel line? Greetings from Germany 😊
Could you make a way to mount your OHV V8 onto this same chassis and drivetrain? You could get a Camaro or Challenger body to put on it. Meaning instead of making an all new setup for a new car, you can just swap the engine and body shell.
