Building an RC: Tamiya Egress (Time Lapse)
Vložit
- čas přidán 6. 09. 2024
- This is a time lapse build of a custom Tamiya Egress. At the end of the video I show the complete results. In 1989 I came across the Tamiya Egress. I never had an RC when I was young but fantasized about having one or two. I was fully aware of every kit that came out around that time and voraciously read anything RC related. The Egress was one of two (Yokomo 870c was the other) that I dreamt of having. Interestingly, the Tamiya Avante never did much for me, I felt it was an extroverted car that wanted attention. The Egress, an upgraded performance version of the Avante was somewhat the opposite. It’s the Avante’s introverted but more talented sibling, overshadowed by the Avante’s bling. In 2013, the Egress was re-issued. By then, I wasn’t interested in RC cars anymore. But in 2020, I came across a new one for sale and decided to purchase it.
As for the build theme, I was always drawn to one decal on the Egress-“Hairy Ogre.” The Egress was probably Tamiya’s top 4WD pre TRF and it deserves the “Ogre” moniker. But at a glance it doesn’t look as brutish or ogre-like. It needed to be wider and lower (wide like a Yokomo 834B) and low like a CAT XL/S. And the car’s greenhouse needed to be narrower. It was too tall, long, and friendly. I decided to widen it a bit by using two bodies, cutting the sides on one and adding it to the other as an extension. (I kept the original body and decals for the future and used TBG replica bodies). With that effect, it also gave the car a little Japanese culture-it looks like plates from a samurai’s armor. Keeping the silver color was intentional for two reasons: 1) I still wanted it to resemble the iconic Egress at first glance; 2) with the side extensions and samurai armor effect, silver felt natural. The decals for the windows where shortened and re-cut to project an aggressive stare. The decal livery and color was intentional as well. The original orange was always off-didn’t really complement the red/black/silver. So I kept that out. Most of the decals were redone on the computer and cut using a vinyl router. I also had MCI reprint some monochromatic ones because I needed the side panel decals with the Tamiya word.
Since I don’t have a proper track around me, I decided to lower the car just to run on flat surfaces. I think the Egress benefits from a nicer looking stance. I added nylon tube spacers to keep the car low-and also added rear 10mm wheel spacers to add to the width. I added carbon fiber lower side skirts for a more wider look. Then used an AE vintage wing with custom cut endplates. I think visually, the stance, width, wing, narrow greenhouse decals makes it quite aggressive-closer to the “Ogre” moniker. In addition, I’m a fan of Japan’s Super GT Autobacs race, and the team I like is Arta Racing. Their livery palette is somewhat the same and I decided to combine it with the theme. As a little detail, I made decals for my Egress storage bin to mimic something like an Arta toolbox.
As for the mechanical, electronic, and miscellaneous parts, I believe the Egress deserves better parts-if you go for an Egress, improve the parts as well because it’s an iconic kit. There’s a fair number of upgraded aluminum parts. I also used an Acto TRF motor (with upgraded brushes), KO Propo RSX3 servo, and a 1990’s Tekin Pro Pulse 700 ESC-quite brutish in my opinion. It’s an old ESC and a little glitchy but the punch is still insane even if I lower it. In fact, with the motor, I probably could tighten the ball diffs more. But if I had a choice I would’ve maybe installed a Tekin 4xx series. Aside from switching to stainless hex screws, I sparingly used some gold plated hexes, nuts, and turnbuckles (from Square Japan and Kyosho). I think it adds a touch that conveys quality. I wanted different front wheels-something deep/conical but with a similar diameter to the stock Egress wheels. It also had to have a glossy finish. I found vintage Pro-Line wheels and dyed them black. The tires for display use are vintage as well, from CRP-that was intentional because I always liked the lettering style (and the words “Dynamite Racing”) on their tires. For running, I use Pro-Line Shadows (mostly for the thread pattern) paired with Schumacher wheels.

This car was one of my father's dream radio-controlled cars when he was a child.
It was very expensive and not something that a child could afford, so he eventually gave up on buying it.
I can't believe it's 30 years old, but it's so stylish.
Thanks for watching! Yes, it was an expensive kit back in the day. Never had one in the past because of that.
The most beautiful rc car i have see in my life !!! Well done ;)
Thanks, Antonio Perez! Appreciate it. And thank you for watching.
Glad to see that I am not the only one who is so crazy replacing the original screws with stainless or special screws. And cutting threads for the metric screws into the parts too.
Your working space is so neat. Mine is so awfully crowded. I admire your style. No bullshit talking, discreet music and no loud crappy stuff. Watching your videos is like Zen Buddhism of RC modelling.
Thanks, Martin Zurru! I appreciate the words and thank you for watching. Definitely, prefer hex and stainless especially with vintage and iconic kits.
Crazy this kit came out in 1989. Tamiya always had the most beautiful kits.
Yes! Quite vintage and actually some people don’t know that
For me Tamiya Egress is the most beautiful buggy ever.
Thanks for watching! Quite underrated for what it is especially back in the day
Avante still the best
Supershot
Quite honestly there are no words to express the craftsmanship at work here. Simply stunning.
Thanks again, James! And thank you for watching.
Probably the most beautiful RC ever made. And you made it even more appealing! This is just stunning. The Egress quickly made it to the top of my to buy list when I can swing it!
Thanks again! Good luck and hopefully you can your hands on an Egress.
This is no rc car anymore this is vintage rc art! The Details are just over the moon! Great build!
Thanks, Kris wuvs! I appreciate the comment. And thanks for watching.
Absolutely insane the level of detail and the creativity for the entire build and design. Bravo, my jaw dropped at how stunning this thing is.
This reminds me of when I built my Losi 22T a few years ago.
I took my time and worked on it on the weekends. It took me about a month, but it was beautiful and I felt so accomplished.
Took it to my local track and it drove better than it looked.
I miss this hobby and living near a RC track in Tacoma WA.
Best looking Egress in the world.
You, Sir, are the patron saint of patience.
Thanks, Cat No Name! Appreciate the comment :) and thank you for watching!
I find your videos to be really relaxing and the builds always turn out to be masterpieces. I enjoy this hobby immensely, just got into it again after more than 20 years away from it, but I lack the patience to put this much detail into my builds :D Keep them coming, always looking forward to a notification that you uploaded a new video :)
Thank you, Lutz Mowinski! Appreciate the kind words, encouragement, and support! Glad you're back into the hobby and I hope you're taking your time to enjoy it :)!
Use your imagination for your builds bro that's the beauty of this hobby, you won't need patience when your creating something your way. You have all the time you need.
Incredible - love the OEM++ vibes. Really love watching these videos. After picking up the hobby again as an adult due to lockdown this is really inspiring me to put an extra level of care and thought into my own builds!
Thanks, Hugh Courtney! I think you're the first one to mention OEM++! Pretty much spot on. Good luck with your builds and thanks for watching!
No doubt Hugh, everything this guys does is down right stunning!!
Probably the best Tamiya Egress ever made.... The livery is superb.
When it comes to classic RC cars I have always been a fiercely staunch box art guy.
With this I think you may have turned me... stunning build, absolutely stunning!
Thanks, munro12345! Thank you the nice words and for watching.
Best looking Egress I have ever seen.
Thank, Robert Turnip! And thank you for watching.
The style of letterings on the tires, and the red hex wheel nut in conjunction with the red paint stripes make this Egress so much nicer. I think the gold upgrades on the various connectors are nice too.
The lighting, camera angles and back ground music made your video very relaxing to watch.
Thanks, James H! Appreciate it and the comment :). And thanks for watching!
I am speechless, top notch skills to match this iconic Tamiya model 🙏
Oh my god, I need an Egress.. Wanted it for 25 years now. Epic build, I'm splashing out on payday!
Thanks, DashDrones! It should be out again soon! Good luck and I hope you can get one.
1st car I built @10 years old was a Big Wig . Wish I could afford another but it will have to wait. Just got back to it after 15 years and as I watch this I'm building a TT02R . Love Tamiya
Thanks for watching, Tony. TT02R is a nice piece of kit! Good luck and have with the build.
An iconic model, top of the line after the Avante. Nice video made. Thank you for the memory.
Thank you, Joshua OH! And thanks for watching.
You expertly built this thing like a surgeon! So much attention to detail and precision. It is almost a shame to run the car and get it dirty.
Thanks! And thank you for watching. I feel the same way! I did clean it up after and it still looks pristine. Ran it our of curiosity. The good thing is it was on-road tarmac so there are no scratches.
After the procedure of breaking in the ball differentials, sounds at 39:27 seems really smoother than at 39:10 !! And at 39:30 is PERFECT. Fantastic.
Thanks, Alberto Pittino! I appreciate it and thank you for watching. Nice that you noticed it!
Once again, top quality work. Both build and filming, lighting and editing are perfection. Sir, you inspire.
Thanks, Scott Arnold! I really appreciate the nice comment. Take care!
Since seeing your interpretation of the super astute, I’ve learnt how to de-pin plugs and now smoke/ black heat shrink all my wires. Also, I will now apply the score and snap technique to my future builds Thanks for inspiring me to go next level.
Thanks, Eddienervous1! And thank you for watching. Glad there are some techniques to learn from, from the videos. If you have some spare lexan/polycarbonate, try and practice on those first. The hobby is a fine one and I'm also still learning new things on the way with every build. Good luck!
Thanks for the reply. I keep most of my useable polycarbonate cut offs, I make custom spoilers out of them and planned on one day making canards/ aero fins to apply to the right buggy. Can I ask where you purchase the carbon sheets? I’d like to try a wide body avante, next build. I have one black and 2 standard NIB ready to roll. I’ve just finished my super astute and about to start a Tamiya 1/25 RC panzer tank for something different. Thanks again 🙏🏼
I've had the carbon sheet for some old project and it was from a local hardware shop. By the way, the tanks are fascinating but expensive! Good luck.
Gorgeous build again!!! Love the wider bodyshell. Really does the Egress justice. Amazing work!
One of the coolest looking buggies ever. Man, that thing is LOADED with carbon. Very cool! Nice work!
Thanks, Mark Hahn! And thank you for watching.
This relaxing, calm and satisfying video made me rebuild my df02 plasma edge
Thanks again! Glad you found it calming!
Not many run in motors it makes so much difference great job! I want one.
Wow! So good. Oozes quality…Great eye and attention to detail. Thankyou for the description and also keen to see details of the electric screwdrivers and tools used during your build and how you die the wheels black!
Top 3 best looking rc cars ever made.
Thanks for watching, Joshua Marcum!
Even before watching this I already love it, I actually own an original Egress so this is super awesome
Awesome build, really dig the wide body idea you went for.
Trip down memory lane, 3 years ago I modded an Avante (original 1988) to an Egress (called Project Frankenstein) , was really fun to do
Not sure if more people would enjoy this, but I'd love a rundown video on the tools you use.
Thanks, Lucas Geniar! And thank you for watching. The Avante 88 is cool one! Regarding the tools video, I probably make a few episodes on it. So far a fair number of viewers have asked about it. Maybe the next one.
Thats just made my mind up! Egress is by far tamiyas best ever kit looks amazing some serious work gone into that.
Skills 101 👍😎
Thanks, Alan Rixson! Appreciate it. I see an 870c on your profile pic-that is my favorite kit of all time :)!
@@MechanicAfterHours thats what I started racing with all those years ago
I've watched this several times and I'm still amazed at your vision and precise execution of not only this build, but all your other creations... I started out in RC as a very young lad in the very early 80's with a Rough Rider, then bought and painted a Sand Scorcher body when I smashed the original, then upgraded (downgraded) to a Grasshopper when that was released. Wow, what a mistake, the power of the box-art fooled a very young me. My friend, on the other hand, went from a Frog to a HOTSHOT. And THAT car blew my mind. I personally believe the Hotshot was a groundbreaker because it enabled my best friend to humiliate some of the older "snobs" at our local track (who all had RC10's) by winning a third place in his first race! Long story but I now have a Hotshot after nearly 40years and I'd love to see your interpretation...... if not, carry on the good work anyway, I'll still watch hahaha
Thanks, Kester Stott! I appreciate the comment and message! That Rough Rider is an iconic piece of kit and part of RC history-it's truly what started the off-road RC buggy scene and got other brands into building their own off-road buggies. I've definitely thought about the Hot Shot many times and maybe one day will do a build.
That is stunning. As others have commented, the OEM++ vibe is perfectly judged, even the red wheel hub screws 👌
Thanks, 0836whimper! Thank you for the kind comment and for watching!
Wow what an impressive Job. I love the old Tamiya Models 😍
Thanks, Chris! Love the old ones as well! And thanks for watching.
Impressive. Your attention to detail, the methodical way you perform each step, and the end results... amazing. Keep them coming, I can't get enough of these builds.
Thanks! Really appreciate it! I will.
Absolutely incredible my friend 😍😍😍
Thanks, Glenn! Appreciate it. By the way, love your Madcap restoration!
Incredibly impressive. You live up to your name and are a true 'Mechanic' - 👍
Thanks! And thank you for watching again.
This bar none is the sickest Egress ever to be assembled. I must build one for myself . The carbon , silver , gloss black with all the zink hardware is extremely elegant and all works together. Once I do one I think I'd go dry carbon ( dull) gloss black with all the aluminum anodized blood red a deep dark blood red instead of the zink
Thanks, Randy Slagle! And thank you for watching! That would be interesting to see with the red anodized alloy parts. Good luck with the build when you get to it!
What an absolute ode to Egress. Great stuff.
Thank you, hpergm! And thanks for watching.
Nice cool rc, Tamiya is the best.
I love those tyres, they would look amazing on an full size real buggy 👍
Thanks, Li'l Pete's Workshop! I agree :)
That is the most beautiful rc car i have ever seen! if only Tamiya made an Egress 2/evolution and it was like this.
Thanks, Paul Taylor! Appreciate it and thanks for watching! I do wish that they'd make an Egress 2
Beautiful egress , i like it. You modified it like a masterpiece , great job
Thanks, Jeffry! Glad you like it and thanks for watching.
The egress colour looks amazing. Can you tell me what number of tamiya spray do you use , thank you mechanic
Superb video. Absolutely stunning. I really enjoy your videos.
Thanks, RC Retro! Appreciate it and thanks for watching-I enjoy your videos too :)!
41:22 the looks of your car is really amazing. Egress was really feared at the Tamiya cup. I had an egress and the first edition avante some years ago. But when i raced Tamiya cup i was young and had the Tamiya lunch box
I'll give that Egress a five thumbs up!!!👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks, again!
@@MechanicAfterHours the truth is I envy at you. You are able to obtain some of my favorite Tamiya RC, & made a true competition racer out of it, the tools & equipment you had, you made the SSD into, a Stratos inspired rc, and this Egress? Beast mode brother!!!👍👍👍👍👍, Here in the Philippines, obtaining such hobby is a rich man's amenities, imagine a single RC is worth 2 months Salary
Thanks! I've seen Filipinos with some really nice RCs and more than what I have. It's probably just all relative-I've also seen people around the world with 3-4 Egresses alone and I only have one! And some with every single Tamiya RC release. Never had an RC when I was young because like you said, it's an expensive hobby.
This left me drooling. just wow..
Thank you, Bee Sod! And thanks for watching.
When I was a kid, it was the RC to have, now you’ve brought it back with some incredible custom creativity! Well done, am almost wanting to go RC as a kid was just something too expensive to purchase back in the day.
Thanks, Lazlo! And thank you for watching. I agree with you, it was one to have as a kid back in the day but it was just out of reach for most of us. I would always stare at it thru the hobby store window.
Your such a PRO! Your builds trump most others. The cleanlyness and attention to detail. The subtle hop ups, vintage electronics and the whole look, low to the ground. I lowered mine 8mm in the back, I like it there. Im going to hop it up with black alloy bits to make them invisible. Have the alloy front c hubs on the way, going to look around for more bitz tonight=)
Thank you! Sounds like you're enjoying your Egress too :) Good luck with the future upgrades!
Just amazing! The most beautiful ever! What a perfect job! Congratulations
Beautiful car! Looks like a work of art ;) Thanks for sharing!
Thanks again, KY Crawlers :)!
Ridiculously good 👍🏻 I’ve now thrown all my feeble attempts at building RC cars in bin and I’m going to pretend this is now one of mine 😉
Thank you, Justfor Fun! I've seen your Postal Racing Round 7 vid on Tamiya Club. Always found it enjoyable to watch, especially the Citroen 2CV ;). Puts a smile on face every time.
Tamiya Egress is just one of the best 4wd buggy ever, and you've made it look even better, great job, a thing of beauty, i also liked your blitzer beetle and kyosho javelin.
Thanks, Gary Bennett! Appreciate it and thank you for watching and supporting the channel!!!
All your builds are literally works of art. I wish I had this level of patience to create models like this. Kudos sir kudos👏🏾👏🏾
Thanks, Chris G! I appreciate the comment! And thank you for watching.
This is gods work
Thank you and thanks for watching, Jefferson Humber!
Love your videos. Wish I had the cash, time and skill to make some builds like yours. Inspirational.
Thanks, Johnny Coolness and thank you watching. I understand.
Absolute stunning job, you´re welcome...
Beautiful, such patience and skill. 100% respect to you
Thanks, Steven! I appreciate it! And thank you for watching.
Haven't seen nimh batteries and brushed motors in a while. Full nostalgia.
Really great workmanship, creativity and well captured in this video! I think it's your best one so far! I'm just watching it now third time, there is so many details to pick up in it, so much to learn.
Thanks, Mschdk rc! And thank you for watching. I appreciate it and glad it helps a bit!
You made that thing into a shelf Queen well done
Thanks, JP Marx! Is that a good thing or bad thing? And thanks for watching!
@@MechanicAfterHours it's a great thing it's so beautiful I wouldn't even want to drive it well perhaps on a tennis court where there's no dirt I wish we could post pictures have a few gems in my collection
Got it! Do you have an instagram account? Could look it up there. Only if you do.
Insanely cool! Moreover, the assembly technology is high, and it is a wonderful word to see. You have a high sense.
Thanks, 9conta! I appreciate the feedback and thank you for watching.
The Egress was the first RC car I ever bought & built (1990 I think). I still recognise every piece. I've built many more since but you never forget your first, as they say.
Another incredible build. Fantastic creativity and perfect execution. A Jewel like Egress!
Thanks, rightwheeldrive! And thank you for watching.
Stunning build. Enjoyed every minute and diggin’ the RC ASMR vibes. The attention to detail and clean, efficient organization was inspiring.
Thanks, Mark Davis! I appreciate the comment and thank you for watching.
What a machine.... Could watch this on repeat 😍
Thanks, p c! And thank you for watching.
That still looks super cool. Even 30+ years old. Damn
Thank you for watching, RC Ya Later...! Man, I cracked up when I read your profile name. Love it.
Im just bought the avante black. What you did are absolutely amazing. Im planning to keep my original bodyshell as weel with the stickers for the shelves queen art later.. i will mold it to carbon fiber an use as basher session. Just my 2 cents
The Avante black is cool ;)!
Sehr sauberes und detailliertes,ansehendes Video.
Das Endergebnis ist grandios und nahezu perfekt.
Grüße aus Deutschland.
Danke Sprüher 89. Und danke fürs Zuschauen und das nette Kompliment!
i built a hornet i got for christmas as a child, it took me 4 days. I love your vids
あなたが作るキットは美しい!
どうもありがとうございました! そして、ビデオを見ていただきありがとうございます。
Amazing construction - perfection! 😊. I hope you make some more videos soon!! 😎👌👌
Thanks, hoping to upload a build soon
More builds needed. You are on track to becoming my favourite RC channel! I absolutely adore your work.
Thanks, David Voisin! Appreciate the kinds words and I'll keep at it!
As much as I enjoy seeing others' work and footage of builds, as well as track footage, this is by far my favorite RC channel.
Wow, again, what an impressing build! Love your imagination/theme and how you transferred it to nowadays! It simply doesn´t look old, which is a compliment for the Tamiya designers. Their 90´s buggies just have so much style... Again 10 from 10 points from me!!!
Thanks, ruebiracers channel! Really appreciate the comments. Yes, it's a great base design to start with and always when I think of how old the Egress is I'm always impressed. Thank you for watching.
this is a piece of art nice craftmanship the way you put it togerther nice job thank you for the great video really thanks bye for now my friend
I wish I had such a neat workplace like you have...With an uncomfortable cold workplace in the basement, one can´t really enjoy the hobby as much as it would be possible...I´ll have to change that this year !
Thanks, 19Marc79! And thank you for watching. I think the grass is greener on the other side :). I'd love to have a basement where I can remodel and set it up for RC building. My space for the RC hobby/building is only 1.5 meters x 1.5m (or 5ft x 5ft) ;).
@@MechanicAfterHoursAh, I see ! Maybe that´s why everything is so neatly packed and oganized in your videos. With 2,25 square meters, one HAS TO have perfect order :)
Ridiculously sick.
It's very attractive and I just watched it. I don't usually watch production videos. It was a nice video!
Thank you! Appreciate the comment and thanks for watching.
I have always loved control toys and I love this car
Thanks for watching!
Dude you are amazing. Such beautiful builds. Thank you so much 🥳
Beautiful build, really inspirational!
The only comment that fits your work here sir is just "Bravo Bravo" !
Thank you, S andrew Carson! And thanks for watching.
Simply a piece of art!
Thanks, Bruce73X! Appreciate it and thanks for watching.
So cool to start with the footage
Nice job, looks super bad ass with the lowered stance. Nice wide body too. Love the CF and gold.
Thanks, Daragh Slowey! Appreciate the comment and thanks for watching.
Wundervoll gearbeitet. Das Modell ist richtig geil muss ich mir auch kaufen. Schöne Grüße aus germany.
Danke fürs Zuschauen und den netten Kommentar! Ich hoffe, Sie können einen bekommen und den Build auch erleben.
Wow never seen anyone build an rc this abnormally fast
Thanks for watching, Destiny Haze!
Stunning it’s like a work of art , best RC maker I have seen 👍🏻
Thanks! And thank you for watching.
Brilliant but nothing beats the Avante!!
Awesome like always
Reminds me a bit of my kyosho optima from 1985
Thanks for watching. It does, probably some era/generation design from that same period
@@MechanicAfterHours Hi Master
yeah maybe tamyia's answer
I must admit, I'm rather jealous of your technique; so much cleaner than mine. I futz around with things while getting pieces to fit the way I want them, and for you, they all just seem to fall into place.
I've been finishing a re-release of the Kyosho Ultima in the last couple of weeks, taking my time with the bodywork, which has been both frustrating as well as satisfying.
Please, keep up the incredible work. Cheers.
Thanks again for watching! I posted something and it got deleted! Re-typing if I can remember all of it. I just wanted to say that I do come across problems too. On this build there where a few things that didn't fit nicely The other thing was the vintage ESC-I cleaned the circuit board and even re soldered some parts of the board and it still ended up glitchy. It runs but it needs to be replaced at some point. The motor's capacitor was broken and I tried to fix it because I couldn't find a replacement. However, I think because I have worked on 1:1 cars as a hobby some of these things I can power through. Bodies are still my least favorite for now. What I did was try to work on some challenging bodies in the beginning, like the TC-01(that was a tad insane) and the Beetle hard body. After working on those two, the rest seems easy. The Ultima is a sweet kit! I think that one has a really good balance of vintage and performance. Good luck with it!
@@MechanicAfterHours - Thanks. I agree on the vintage vs. performance comparison; it was ahead of its time in so many ways. I have the bulk of the build complete at this point, and was even able to finish the decals last night. Just a motor to fit and then testing/adjustments. It will most likely be a shelf queen anyway, so I don't know why I even bothered with electronics of any sort. Oh well.
That's great! I think the electronics make it feel more complete even as a shelf queen. Glad you're getting there!
amazing work! just wow. takes me back seeing vintage rc
Thanks, Nicholas Vinkler! And thanks for watching.
Love the Egress and Avante equally.. Both came out about the same time if i remember.
Thanks for watching. Yes, probably a year apart.
This one is a stunner.
Really nice.
Thank you, StankoPerko! And thanks for watching.
Great videos, i appreciate the fact that you strive for perfection in every detail. At first i questioned your choice on replacing the self tapping screws with stainless machine screws but i understand that you are not a fan of the Phillips head kit screws. Following this i thought okay but then you could use titanium machine screws but they wouldn't add to the build because ultimately you are building a show-piece. The RWB influence also hasn't gone unnoticed. Kudos on all the details.
Thanks, Trevor Jansen! I appreciate the observations, kind words and comment. And thank you for watching!
Beautiful, great work!
Thanks, Marco RC Arena! And thank you for watching.
Subbed your workshop is spotless just how I like it when I build an engine. 👍🏻
Thanks, Jo Ski! Appreciate the sub and thanks for watching.
My new Fav Channel, Incredible man.
