Realistic RC Jumps in 1/24 Scale Dukes of Hazzard Recreation 🏁 69 Charger VS. The Backyard Attempt 1

The time has finally come for the mini RC General Lee to take flight! This past weekend we created a little scene and filmed a number of jumps. The goal with this, as talked about in previous videos is to try and somewhat match the jumps seen in the show as close as reasonably possible. This includes the height, pitch, distance, etc. For a first attempt, I'm calling this a win! We got some great jumps and learned a lot for our next attempt. This video was so much fun to make and I hope you all enjoyed watching. More on this project to come!

Well here's how I spent my Sunday afternoon 😆. Thanks everyone for watching! Overall everything went well but I've learned a few things from these jumps which I'll be changing for the next one. I'll talk more about the car, set up, and damage in the next video but I just wanted to get this short highlight reel out as soon as possible for you all to see. Hope you enjoyed. 👍

[@c_phurrough9036]

Hey man just to let you know on the original car the part that the tail lights connect too was paint jet black but only around the lights

[@marcoreviews]

So cool 😎!!

[@713Ace529]

Yes I agree. The black makes a difference.

[@ErvahNoir]

The only thing missing was the freeze frame and the announcer saying something like "Oh, man. Those Duke boys are in for it now..."

[@BJETNT]

No the classic yeehaw was missing too and the narrator was Waylon Jennings the guy that sang the song!! Lol not arguing with you just adding on I got a good laugh when you said that so thank you have a good day bro!!

[@qubahka77]

"what've them Duke boys got themselves in this time?". that charger jumps just like the 1:1 scale. so siiick.

[@gregghatfield9946]

Love it in slow motion.... growing up I loved matchbox trucks because they had suspension axles....and watch the wheels work in the dirt...... thanks for the bud myfriend

[@DarkDragonWing]

That looks cool and fun. I need to make more off-road cars and bash around!

[@MakeItRC]

If you do, I hope you make some videos as that would be awesome to see. 👍

[@713Ace529]

Yes go for it.

[@victorhalada5800]

Those Fellas were my idols growing up, lmho!!! Made my day Sir… Great Work, LMHO!!!🤣😎🤙🏽

[@anibalbabilonia1867]

“Just some good ole boys!”👌😂👍

[@puntomk1uk64]

Really cool to see the general fly! hopefully the car survived all okay 🤞

[@MakeItRC]

It needs a little work but I can put it back together. 🔧 👍

[@jaqueslagerweij6882]

By far my favorite car and video ever!!

[@anthonymoralez2292]

Eeeehaaaa That was super sweet Boe forgot to blow his horn in the air

[@nicodanger13]

Almost 52 yo and i'm here to watch the General Lee jumping!

[@Thebikelife.]

Hey, I watched all the videos to this. The general lee is awesome. Amazing work on this car too super cool

[@UROfpv]

Lol... cool. Nice tv series. My childhood. You did a great job. model and shooting

[@ahmedibrahim2512]

Best jump I have ever seen

[@reh3ddoes]

This was AWESOMELY EPIC!

[@paulmcnamara16]

Awesome looking forward to seeing more of this little RC in action!

[@moviemanjlk0177]

Great video 👏👏, perfect camera view and jump's 🎥 it looks just like the Duke of Hazzard show!

[@chaddavis513]

Frickin awesome 1/24th build!

[@corsaire057]

Love the flying General 👍

[@THEMASKEDMASTER]

✌🏻😎🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿1 step closer 👍🏻

[@jeffmackovitch9987]

Nice work. I gotta get one of these. 👍👍

[@Vorper]

I've been looking forward to this.

[@mikeymike3240]

Love the attention to detail man, and those jumps are the bomb 💣💥💥💥💥💥

[@zamoragera13]

Them Duke boys would be proud.

[@soundmindtv2911]

So awesome looking

[@TheGramee]

Great footage,...awesome work! Gotta love the slow mo. Looking forward to more!

[@phantomcharger568]

The car looks amazing 👍👍👍

[@andrewhowell4198]

That was AWESOME! Great video! I can't wait to see more! Nice work getting the General Lee and the set together!

[@xMadeInAmerica]

Damn!! That looks soooooo cool!! 🤩

[@jerryvolpini7987]

Very cool, loved it! Some of those jumps looked like they came right out of the show! 👍

[@mazinz2]

Love it! Now we just need to overdub it with the Hazzard theme song

[@scaleaddiction]

Loved that and so fun watch, as always great build

[@thekangster0_032]

holy crap man! that looks super fun!

[@jaydensdream714]

Brilliant!

[@coltglasscock7234]

Been waiting for this one!

[@pnwRC.]

Too cool, man!

[@kennyg880]

I love this 👍🏾👍👍🏾👍👍🏾⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

[@alteredstateskustom]

I saw a video on KZbin years ago of a guy who was ripping his general lee over jumps! The best part of yours is any scuffs and dings only add to the scale looks!

[@BandAid350z]

I’m not sure why or how, but that first minute just made me smile. Well done. The effort in the car(s) detail, photography, editing, music choice, and all around aesthetics… just superbly done.

[@ThompsonRc]

Just awesome

[@shattered79]

That would be fun😎👍🏻

[@aaronarmstrongaa]

This is awesome

[@geneside0]

I literally just watched the dukes series you have been making again last night. Absolutely beast of a build and definitely stronger than some of your other builds. Love your channel bud!

[@rustychevy7035]

Superb

[@raywerstler7982]

That looks so good can you please make more videos like this jumping off of dirt ramps and stuff 👌😝😋

[@fangthewarrior]

This turned out awesome! :D

[@redcrackeroutdoors3234]

Freaking great!!!! 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼

[@tmanfiles3079]

Great video! Keep it up

[@zz-tama]

Really cool video. I like the General Lee👍

[@HarvesterSportfishing1]

Love the vids man keep up the good work

[@rc412scaler]

This is so cool

[@connorh3883]

A bit late but holy cow that looked awsome! I wanna see it thrashed around a scale looking town. That would be awsome.

[@MakeItRC]

Thank you. Yeah once I get the car back up and running I want to drift it around in some loose dirt. Should look cool. 👍

[@sirswerve2493]

Green Chevelle! Nice........

[@sonnycon40]

GOOD STUFF MAN !!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@RCSUPREMACY]

That was great man! Im ready to see it run through some uncooked noodles before launching haha

[@maximumrpm1868]

Awesome

[@jdpasltrains]

Send it again and is still the legend!

[@MarcoRCArena]

Super!

[@exptodd]

Nice!

[@anynonymous1585]

"Looks like them Duke boys have gotten themselves in some trouble"

[@IowaBudgetRCBashers]

Now ya gotta make uncle jesses truck, daisy’s road runner or jeep, and roscoes sheriff car, oh and cooters tow truck. Although you did have a green chevelle in this video and cooter drove a green chevelle in the first season 😁

[@extremecaliber2662]

Working on the suspension looks like it really paid off! congrats

[@Jellybean_191]

Looks good. Post more of them. Can't always do builds.

[@Shade_tree_garage01]

Looks amazing, I wish I could get one of these from you

[@andyjones357]

Sweet

[@imanassole9421]

Heck yeah! Been looking forward to this, that and the Drift 240sx.. or 180sx depending on what side of the world you're on I believe. This channel actually inspired me to get back into model car building. I only ever built one, and I was an impatient 12yr old kid so it looked like crap. It was a 69 charger, close to this one, but I painted it black with red accents. The one I'm finishing up now is a 57 Bel Air. Based on the one from Return to Macon County (If ya know ya know.) It's my Dad's dream car, and I wanted to build it for him just cuz I know he'll love it. It's almost done, not perfect, but it's only my 2nd one. So I'm still learning and gathering tools. 😊

[@darrellp76]

YEEEEEEHAAAAAAAWWW!!!!!!

[@weswolf73]

Nostalgia fo show! Awesome. However Rosco’s squad car should be under the jump!

[@ashjensen7054]

looks great!! but looks like it could do with some stiffer springs in the rear. great job!!

[@flyingfortressrc1794]

Man that was cool. You just need Rosco's car on the other side of the jump for the General to fly over. Lol Great video

[@wes41182]

Awesome! Should reenact the bullitt chase once you finish your mustang

[@richardlaquerre2535]

My dad has a General and this is cool

[@kieren7763]

Your neighbours must be like look hes playing cars in the dirt like a big kid haha

[@21joerice]

Those look better than the Season 7 jumps.

[@KeepinitRealGarage]

Yee haw

[@s2wheels]

Man I loved it, your working with a smaller scale. So I know that's not easy. It might need a little more power or less incline on the ramp. So it travels a bit further.

[@commanderwolf_gaming5191]

Have you thought about getting one of those small mini cameras and puting in the car for a pov of the jump that be sweet, if you could find on that could be Bluetooth to a phone so you could drive it in pov I bet the jumps would be even better. Still awesome video!! Look forward to more. How about KITT next. Shoot make a Herbie lol.

[@s2wheels]

But I loved it.

[@svexitstrategy2595]

Make "sugar glass" and paint it to make your breakaway boards.

[@TheAquabears]

Looking good. Only thing I can think to mention is that the panel around the tail lights is supposed to be black.

[@telekinesischriswright2540]

That was sweet my friend I haven't found one of your videos yet that say you will build them for other people but was wondering if you would build one for someone else maybe not that particular paint job but definitely that car and again sorry if you've already said something in your other videos I will get to it but really really awesome video man take care💯👍

[@JettBlast]

This reminds me of the last episodes of the series when they were really cutting the budget

[@dodgeramdude16]

ever think of using bolsa wood to make fences or half a barn to run through?? it's relatively cheap I think and could be fun for effects. just a thought. like the work you do! looks great!

[@MakeItRC]

Yes I did some testing in the last video just for fun: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aXjEl4Gso9qlhrs

[@StandardCreatives]

Very Nice! Can you please make Miami Vice cars (Ferrari Daytona & Testarossa) next

[@colossalbigfoot256]

You have to do like they did. Have about 75 spares setting around to jump and a hero car for after.

[@BJETNT]

It would be cool if you could make a video with Roscoe's Cop car chasing the General around some of the roads you have made!! I know that would take a lot of effort to say the least but I think it would increase some of your videos likes and subscriptions because you would certainly get them all from me that I can muster. If you could pull that off with RC's I think people would love that!

[@Harry-Har]

as a kid i had a toy grade rc general lee

[@StarDust1939]

Great! Can you do one that shows the car driving away when it lands?

[@MakeItRC]

Yes, though I might need to splice together two separate pieces of video after some of those landings just like they did in the show. 😆

[@marksalen3408]

add some talcum powder to the mix so that the smoke stays longer in the air

[@pl5624]

Need a police car one too

[@thatmaverickguy859]

I think some more weight to keep it from bouncing as much

[@richieplays8321]

it's great, but I wish the back near the taillights was black like in real life

[@DaveyGa]

Talc instead of flour? Less gooey on cleanup.

[@andrewestrada6531]

How about making the DeLorean from Back to the Future? It's famous like General Lee.

[@patrickseals5746]

Is the chassis something you offer for sale on another site for folks that would like to build one?

[@MakeItRC]

Yes. We offer the chassis both assembled as a roller with a motor and servo: shop.makeitrc.com/products/the-general-artr-make-it-rc-ffr-sc1-chassis-for-69-charger?variant=39961918963900 and as STL files for folks with 3D printers to make at home. The hardware and non-3D printable parts can be found on our site. STL files are available on our Patreon page: www.patreon.com/makeitrc

[@ahmedibrahim2512]

Do a rally race with the Mustang

[@LandoCabrizzian]

how much would a commision of this car cost

[@CubbiesMLB]

Id like to have one but id have to buy it already assembled as i have no desire to buy all the stuff to build rc cars. Im just a fan of the general that wouod like to mess with an RC version once in awhile. If someone has one for sale im interested

[@codyjames.mccrary]

Can I purchase one of those things

[@andyjones357]

Where's Roscoe
