More 1/25 Scale RC Jumps and Crashes 💥 Mini Dukes of Hazzard Recreation

Just a couple guys jumping RC cars in the backyard. Is there any better way to spend a weekend? This latest round of General Lee jumps produced some great leaps, fails, and crashes. Some of these jumps looked very much like the real thing. Time to fix the General and get ready for the next round of stunts! Want more information about this car? Check out the playlist below.

I always enjoy making these jump/stunt videos. So much fun watching and editing all the footage. Thanks everyone for watching. 👍

[@markmoats5702]

I think glueing some small nuts to the inside of the front end of the car would also help level it out in mid air as well the jumps look great the original car had concrete in the frame to help with leveling process again the car and the jumps look great

[@robertobuenrostro2781]

Well it's about time them Duke boys showed up. 🤘👀🤘

[@RCSUPREMACY]

That opening shot was so scale dude! The whole video was excellence, but that shot was unreal.

[@paulskipp5760]

The loose dirt made it look just like the TV show. Awesome!

[@laurenciozabala4296]

Watching the General Lee jump in small scale brought back great memories of the show. The car looks amazing even as a kit body, the only thing missing is the theme song!

[@Rob_Huskett]

If only this technology and your skill were available back when the show run. Would have a lot more chargers around today. Looks fantastic! 😁👍

[@MakeItRC]

Lol, in one of the later seasons they did use models instead of real cars for some of the jumps. It is a shame that so many Chargers got wrecked.

[@johnlanter9592]

Not really because only a little over 300 were used in the show. That didn’t even put a scratch in the amount of them that were made. most of them were taken out by rust.

[@713Ace529]

Man! I know is hard to scape home to do this elsewhere cause the shed is killing the realism BUT big credit your creativity and improvements. There were a few that you nail it right on. Also you did justice by adding the black tail color, Thank you I know a few requested this including myself lol. This takes time to do so hey we appreciate your entertainment. 👍

[@MakeItRC]

Thank you. Yes I'd love to be able to film in the woods or a field but I currently don't own any property were that can be done.

[@TheGramee]

So sweet bro...this was great! It takes a while to figure out the cool camera shots...but every so often you create super cool realistic gold. Keep it rollin...!

[@michaeldeluco5862]

This is beyond epic! Great job on filming this!

[@garyslentzii2796]

Very well done. Looked scale in most jumps. Put a smile on my face & that's what it's all about... & having fun!

[@nhmtrhd]

Thanks for the smile and chuckle I got watching this! NICE FREKIN JOB!! First time I have seen the Dukes depicted in a much smaller scale 👍 From the wooden gates to the dust trail following the car into the air. None of this was accidental!! Congratulations Dude 🤠

[@BudgetRC_Channel]

I could watch these jumps all day, and I'm 100% in agreement with your decision to cut to another scene for the car driving away. I'm building some 10th scale General Lees specifically to do the same kind of jumping, and I'm going so far as to make a hero car and a jump car specifically to duplicate the methods used on the show, and the cut to the "hero" car driving away will be part of the authenticity. I can't wait to see your next round, and if you're interested, please consider checking my page for the 10th scale cars and once they're done, some jump videos too.

[@MakeItRC]

Nice! Just subscribed, will be checking out your videos. 👍

[@thatRPSDB60dude]

boy i love the dukes of hazzard

[@barebonesgarage7624]

Was having a bad day today. This video just made it better! Love the slowmo

[@joski9030]

The fence was a cool touch .. good work man

[@brsrc759]

So epic bro! Great shots! Love that you put the fence there a few times for it to go blasting through. 🤣😎🤙🏼

[@EthanTheIdioticTankengine]

Very much more reminiscent of the model miniature jumps instead of the real jumps with how sharp the jump and land angles are lol

[@miltonrcadventure]

Awsome💪😃 men, this jumps never get old, always want to see more👍

[@orus68]

These are awesome. Can't wait untill you restock the general chassis kits so I build my general Lee RC with my mpc general kit.

[@IowaBudgetRCBashers]

In my best Waylon voice “ Them Duke Boys is in a heap a trouble this time “

[@BJETNT]

Dukes of Hazzard is the reason I still like off-road RC because I just love jumping cars. This one hit everything right on the head because I love the general Lee awesome video thank you so much!! Only thing missing was the yeehaa by bow and Luke!!! This was so cool it made my night!! I would love to know where I can get one of those general Lee's!!!

[@dudebro313]

The General Lee earns his frequent flyer miles!

[@phoenixblack1220]

Wow that looked like a lot of fun!

[@petejones6827]

NOW THAT WAS CUKING COOOL ALL THE DUST FLYING BEHIND YOU AS YOU LAUNCHED THE JUMP JUST LIKE THE REAL DUKE BOYS

[@ToyotaGuy1971]

Awesome scale realism, man he really jumps well!

[@jeffbryner5355]

Some of those jumps look like bo may have had to much shine before driving!!! Lol

[@MrCaprinut]

That was awesome to watch!

[@JustinMF11]

Alot of 'real' cars woulda been saved if they had you back then lol. Really great footage, looks like the real thing, great balance.

[@IowaBudgetRCBashers]

They did use about 300 scale RC models all hand built, but they still had to use real chargers to do a lot of the stunts. They used 320 chargers ranging from 69-70. Most were 318 cars..

[@danielkroeze8218]

Great work my friend!

[@optimalprimidius7295]

Recommendation; Knight Rider with the red light! Love your work!

[@karlburns6221]

Great job on this new video buddy. Keep up the good work that you are doing. I am looking forward to seeing your new video.

[@themanthelegend7048]

Thanks for making this.

[@petersscalemodelcars]

Just a relaxing video, i really enjoyed it 😊

[@krashkingrc9715]

Awesome video definitely looks cool just like the show most of the cars never finished the shot

[@frankfilippone9679]

Great work! Really cool!

[@gbuilds2736]

You did it love it

[@jarekmace1536]

I love how you're getting flatter landings than the real thing. A real car, front-mounted engine and all, will almost ALWAYS lawn dart.

[@hettekloosterman16]

Its cause the battery is in the middle

[@CK4RC]

Looks like I'm a little late to this party, but I'm definitely enjoying this series of videos! Well done!

[@jim-stacy]

YEEEEEEHAAAAAA! ah gotta love them 80's

[@jone7940]

Very cool!

[@stevecann3394]

Great fun!👍😃

[@BeachinRC603]

Omg the holy grail of rc mini’s & part of the show to 🥾 lol✌️

[@truthbetold9824]

Wow awesome!!!

[@puntomk1uk64]

I could watch those jumps for hours! so cool to see an maybe the general could jump a sheriff car next time?

[@MakeItRC]

Same lol. Yes I have some other stunts like that in mind.

[@JMLUSA1]

ABSOLUTELY EPIC!!!! YEEEEEEEEEHAAAAAWWWWW!

[@fernsolo]

Pretty impressive 👍

[@jerryjohnsonii4181]

Awesome !!!!!!!!!!! Yeehaw !!!!!!!!!!!!

[@modelcars2978]

Very cool!🤠👍

[@GordonScottYankeeEngineer]

Great job man 😉💯👍👍

[@andrewrichey7374]

Yeah outstanding love it 👍👍😎

[@antoniorivera6187]

Very nice the video is awesome 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@russellhamer8690]

Took me right back to sat afternoons ..liked n subscribed me ole fruit.

[@carloshnunez]

Very nice jumps 🔵🔵🔵👍👍👍😀😀😀🔵🔵🔵

[@rickhenson660]

I subbed tonight after the video! But I think you may have killed them Duke boys. Can't wait for more.

[@tyshiddejuremanbey1313]

Bout how many know, i mean real know, i do, i was there!!!

[@ValHemi265]

Too cool 😊

[@ashjensen7054]

if you want to be perfectly scale you could put some sort of weight in the trunk to make the charger nose up in the air, might land bit better, great vid tho :)

[@TheProCut17]

very cool

[@KennethWhiteakaruckusbringa]

Cool man

[@Forcemaster2000]

You should do K.I.T.T. next!

[@vaccumsealed]

Im a HUUUUUUGE Dukes fan, and it would appear you have a lot of fun making these cool vids. Thanks for sharing them. I dont think its cheating at all if you cut from 1 camera angle to another during the jump to the landing. As with the real car during filming, many were shot with 2 different chargers as the jump car would sustain damage during the land, and a 2nd car was used to film the landing in a different angle. Im sure youre a smart guy whos aware of this. They would also weigh the cars trunk down with bricks in order to create the correct physical demand of the jump. Originally, Gy Waldron wanted a 69 camaro, but after review, he and Paul Baxley decided the trunk was too small to add additional weight when needed. Fun fact: did u know Paul Baxley (Dukes main stunt coridnator) was also a stunt double for William Shatner on the original Star Trek while famous game show host, Bob Eubanks, had a son who would go on to be one of the original stuntmen to the Dukes of Hazzard? Interesting stuff. You should do a video of the car jumping, freeze frame it like they would just before a commercial and a nailbiting landing, toss in Waylon Jennings saying, "folks, im not sure theyre gonna make this one", and then continue playing the motion. LoL. That would b funny

[@RCOffRoad76]

Very cool, have you considered doing the same thing with a rc Fall Guy Truck? there was some pretty cool jumps on that show

[@hightorquerc]

Nice video man. Ever thought of building a scale Dom Toretto wheelie Charger?

[@MakeItRC]

Thank you. That would be cool project. 👍

[@lionelplunkett9428]

G'day mate wow that was insane loved the video. Where did you get the car from

[@HuckThis1971]

YEEEEEHHHAAAWWW!

[@TheTylerjoy04]

Man! That's SIIK!! 👍👍Where Can I Buy One??🙏

[@psman74]

Awesome Video is this car custom or a kit you can buy ?

[@erinfogerty3843]

Just a thought, for a chase car, General Grant... Either a Shelby Mustang, or a GTO. Thoughts?

[@scatdawg1]

👍

[@movieforge01]

Soft dirt landing. Get a shot of that thing coming right at you.. looks like a lot of those landed pretty level.

[@347mav3]

It beat all you never saw, been in trouble with the law since the day they were born.

[@commanderwolf_gaming5191]

I was wondering how much of an upgrade to parts and motors would need to be used to make the large scale metal model of the General an Rc. Which is a 1:18 scale.

[@gabrielpichardo1492]

Did you buy that general as an RTR? Or is it something you created yourself?

[@Petrolbrained]

You should make an rc car with a complete interior and scale nitrous engine

[@jdtractorman7445]

Towards the end of the tv show series they used miniature cars and recycled jump footage from earlier seasons to keep cost down. The miniatures looked horrible on tv though.

[@windchaserchasingthedream4253]

Do you share the print files? I wanna make one

[@emonicky412]

why not do a rc model kit of a s10 or s10 blazer

[@menacing_wolf_7339]

Make a police interceptor

[@cooperlorimor2748]

First. great video!

[@LandenDenham]

The video creator was first

[@MakeItRC]

Thanks!

[@cooperlorimor2748]

@@MakeItRC no problem! I have loved watching this car and your channel grow. I think it is amazing that you have designed such a modular chassis that is so easy to build. Keep up the great work.

[@illinoiscentralrailroadfan6015]

The jump's usually totaled the car

[@dand3975]

Those Chargers and Roadrunners, Mustangs Torino's, Camaros & Chevelle's were great looking cars, and the buyer could pick the transmission and engine. The SUV car of toay, boring, it has a cup holder and a cell phone charger, boring.
