Building an RC: Tamiya Egress (Time Lapse)

[@erebus1964]

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.

[@MechanicAfterHours]

Thanks, Martin Zurru! I appreciate the words and thank you for watching. Definitely, prefer hex and stainless especially with vintage and iconic kits.

[@antonioperez1937]

The most beautiful rc car i have see in my life !!! Well done ;)

[@MechanicAfterHours]

Thanks, Antonio Perez! Appreciate it. And thank you for watching.

[@nashico_nonbe]

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.

[@MechanicAfterHours]

Thanks for watching! Yes, it was an expensive kit back in the day. Never had one in the past because of that.

[@ronsmith9251]

Crazy this kit came out in 1989. Tamiya always had the most beautiful kits.

[@MechanicAfterHours]

Yes! Quite vintage and actually some people don’t know that

[@OCDRex11]

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!

[@MechanicAfterHours]

Thanks again! Good luck and hopefully you can your hands on an Egress.

[@keir8326]

This is no rc car anymore this is vintage rc art! The Details are just over the moon! Great build!

[@MechanicAfterHours]

Thanks, Kris wuvs! I appreciate the comment. And thanks for watching.

[@spank11111]

Brilliant but nothing beats the Avante!!

[@MikeLaRock88]

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.

[@TheEpyonz]

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.

[@malihajji2870]

For me Tamiya Egress is the most beautiful buggy ever.

[@MechanicAfterHours]

Thanks for watching! Quite underrated for what it is especially back in the day

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。

[@jamesh950]

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.

[@MechanicAfterHours]

Thanks, James H! Appreciate it and the comment :). And thanks for watching!

[@munro12345]

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!

[@LutzMowinski]

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 :)

[@MechanicAfterHours]

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 :)!

[@mattinwinkymg]

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.

[@kesterstott6351]

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

[@MechanicAfterHours]

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.

[@toolbaggers]

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.

[@MechanicAfterHours]

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.

[@lancelink88]

Probably the best Tamiya Egress ever made.... The livery is superb.

[@Eddienervous1]

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.

[@MechanicAfterHours]

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!

[@Eddienervous1]

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 🙏🏼

[@MechanicAfterHours]

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.

[@TheHefZA]

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!

[@MechanicAfterHours]

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!

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

Have the alloy front c hubs on the way, going to look around for more bitz tonight=)

[@MechanicAfterHours]

Thank you! Sounds like you're enjoying your Egress too :) Good luck with the future upgrades!

[@Grawne]

Just amazing! The most beautiful ever! What a perfect job! Congratulations

[@fc3sboy1]

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

[@MechanicAfterHours]

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!

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.

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.

[@LucasGeniar]

Even before watching this I already love it, I actually own an original Egress so this is super awesome

[@LucasGeniar]

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.

[@irritablearchitect]

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.

[@MechanicAfterHours]

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!

[@irritablearchitect]

@@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.

[@MechanicAfterHours]

That's great! I think the electronics make it feel more complete even as a shelf queen. Glad you're getting there!

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.
