The MOST Scale RC Car on the Planet! FMS Suzuki Jimny - First Look

[@TomleyRC]

So I didn’t go for my Surgery as planned.... cancelled at the last minute due to my current good health! That means more videos! Haha.. but cheers for all the support.

[@GhostRyderFPV]

Why do today, what you can put off 'till tomorrow. Welcome, fellow Colonial! Atta Boy!

[@sweetlou5837]

[@RhoryBurnside]

Hope it's nothing to serious. Have you any FTX crawlers coming up?

[@occrc3333]

Hope everything is alright.

[@NoLimitRC87]

Ah looking forward to watching them bud 👍

[@Blaquer17]

Just grabbed one of these from Horizon Hobby for $99! It is a cool little rig and the packaging is amazing.

[@locosammy383]

I'm glad to see you're healthy man getting better thank God

[@TomleyRC]

Thanks dude

[@caseyjonessnr1200]

I have three 1/12 scale figures for my Jimny, two 1000TOA synthetic humans and one DamToys crash dummy. They all fit in nicely without any amputation.

[@rrrccc1571]

Good luck with the op! Love the look of this even if it won't be hugely capable off road

[@TomleyRC]

Will be a good trail truck 😎

[@michaelarnold3654]

That is so cool, the scale is phenomenal and attention to detail is just wow, great packaging to, best I think I’ve seen, can’t wait to see you take it out, wishing you the best for your hospital visit mate, I hope it goes well for you 🤞🤞

[@TomleyRC]

Hoping to get out with it in the next few days... surgery cancelled for a few months

[@jnmwtkns]

Hope you get sorted out soon. I literally watch as soon as i get my notification of new video. Keep it up it keeps us sane. Cheers from across the pond in IOWA, USA

[@ChiefRickyRC]

Dear FMS, THANK YOU SOOOO MUCHH!!!! IM GETTING TWO

[@ericwood2790]

I saw this on Rc Mart a few weeks ago it’s definitely the most detailed crawler I’ve seen , hope everything is good with your health Phil.

[@steverolfeca]

I rarely see the point of expensive scale RC's and trail trucks, when you can have so much fun with the cheaper alternatives. The level of realism in this one makes the price justifiable IMO. I could see a talented scale modeller going to town on one of these, correcting mold marks, adding further details, and pushing the whole thing to another level.

[@KS-wt9gj]

Challenge accepted.

[@phrg8332]

yeah same, I'd be way too careful with an expensive truck, I'd rather have a cheaper truck and upgrade it a little, to get similar performance for a fraction of the price

[@caseyjonessnr1200]

Excellent video and review. I have this particular model and I am delighted with it.

[@TOYZZLOVERSCHANNEL2020]

Wow thats superb bro, very details of Jimmny , nice video 😍

[@jogarganera]

Finally, you got the FMS Jimny for review. Ive been waiting for someone to review it first or at least unbox it before i purchase it.

[@runnerbaba]

please make a future video with fitting oil-filled-shocks and offroad-tyres, would be awesome.

[@TomleyRC]

Maybe 😎

[@GhostRyderFPV]

Yet another slap in the face regarding the severe lack of Jimny Goodness here in the 'States! _Just because the old one tended to Fall Over... a bit._

[@TomleyRC]

Shame... although you can’t buy them New in the UK anymore, they failed some legislation and now all the second hand ones have doubled in price!

[@ronniemac34]

I watched a video on these and it included the samurai. They didn’t fall over too much at all, a shame that they were stopped being built. I can’t remember the video but it turns out they stopped production due to “failing” the moose test. They didn’t fail and it was because of a grudge between higher power business people. Don’t quote me on anything, this is all off of memory.

[@27ups]

The TFL channel did a offroad test of the Samurai in the US and stated something similar.

[@ronniemac34]

@@27ups yes

[@markmerrin1606]

Speedy recovery buddy..👍🇬🇧😎

[@jeremymiller2340]

Speedy recovery brother!

[@TomleyRC]

Was cancelled in the end... but for a good reason 👍

[@django2467]

An aftermarket lift kit, wheels ,bumpers ,led bars would certainly complete the scale realism good luck on your surgery👍

[@TomleyRC]

That’s would look cool 😎👌

[@runnerbaba]

Dont lift it, but oil-filled shocks would be nice.

[@kevhavard]

Nice! Good luck with the op dude

[@jonowillmer]

I have the 1:1 scale version of this in grey, do you know if they are going to come out in different colours? When I first saw this version I was really impressed, there are a few others out there, but this is exceptional! Hope your recovering well!

[@TomleyRC]

I’m not sure, be nice to have a black one with some the optional extras and accessories you can get on the real one

[@acereport8939]

That thing is awesome! I really like the packaging too. The perfect place to store the truck and all it’s components when not being used.

[@Basin79]

Any upcoming Sherp vids planned?

[@TomleyRC]

Tomorrow 😎👌

[@Basin79]

@@TomleyRC get in!!!!!!!!! Cheers ears.

[@ChiefRickyRC]

This is a nice view into the future

[@proprotornut5389]

Very nice. Best of luck with the operation. 👍

[@ZoomyZoom77]

what a cool rig! I appreciate the effort for more scale looking cars

[@leirameirarc]

Amazingly detailed RC car. Waiting on the first real test drive off road to see if it deserves the massive $300.00 price tag....

[@TomleyRC]

Hopefully it deserves it... 😎👌

[@Ron_Dainger]

Good luck for your op. Hope it all goes well.

[@jdm9984]

Congrats on 50k btw

[@TomleyRC]

Thanks dude

[@davidboyes5360]

Nice detail on that boosuki can't wait to see how it performs bugger about your Op! Hope all is well as always your video's are fantastic cheers

[@ButchiRC]

That’s super realistic Jimny! Don’t rush the test video bro, health is wealth! 🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@marcus-hoonigan7]

I was going to wish you a speedy recovery but looking at the pin it was postponed! Better tires and PLEASE take this thing off road on some harsh rocks etc. I need to see this thing in action! I have the Axial SCX24 and it is beast after all my upgrades- curious to see how this thing handles for such a scale look! Cheers from Colorado USA!

[@ErPirataRc]

Very realistic model my friend👍

[@NoLimitRC87]

Awesome looking truck hope all goes as well as can for you tomorrow Phil, all the best m8

[@TomleyRC]

Thanks dude... all change though haha. Pinned post

[@jonlaird5082]

Ordered mine when I saw the pre-order,lol. Mine should be here next week.........well hopefully,lol. We don't have the jimnys here as suzuki is no longer in the states but these were always 1 of my favorites 😎

[@ianyams]

Good luck with your operation 🤞

[@apple4apple247]

Love your videos, great stuff

[@TomleyRC]

Thanks dude

[@stuartmcnamara9610]

Wow! I'm looking forward to a running video, I wish more cars came with a 2 speed gearbox.

[@TomleyRC]

Yes... if you can fit them in this small thing... anything is possible!

[@Hamzamakesfunvideos]

WOW Nice rc!!

[@wermart8289]

Tomley, need to be a little more objective. 180 motor is good enough just for the 1/18 scale light trails, 1/12 Jimney has a bigger potential and could have come with at least 360 motor. There is no 12mm hex in the wheel if we are talking about true “hobby grade RC”. The “8” shape wheels needs to be gone and not sure what wheels i can use and upgrade it to without proper 12mm hex. Good scale for the price, good for asphalt runs and definitely needs to be modified to be morecomfortable on the trails.

[@TomleyRC]

Easy to put a 12mm hex on as it has a standard hub with pin. As for the 180 motor... we need to not judge its performance until we've given a test. If it's anything like the Willys Jeep (which has the same drivetrain) then it will be fine for it. As for being more objective, I always try to give my opinion on whats good and what's bad, regardless of if the product is free or bought... expensive or cheap.

[@carlitofisher]

Haha, it's already on my banggood wishlist. Thanks for the review mate.

[@TomleyRC]

No worries mate

[@davidturner2365]

Bashers are my thing

[@ptaylor5014]

Another cool video, much better than some channels like kicks lol

[@TomleyRC]

Thanks Paul. Every channel has its place on here.... and as a viewer you have the privilege of choosing which to watch, and which to not watch 👍

[@Marino_RC]

Nice Info... thx for sharing Tom...👍

[@MarcRCAddict]

Ahh dude what you going to me lol, I think this is the only video of yours I won’t/can’t watch lol.. I thought I was going to be one of the first people in the UK to review this but you beat me too it, hopefully mine will turn up soon I can’t wait to review it and have a good old play with it lol then I can watch your video too mate 👍

[@rcplaytime]

Thats an impressive little truck, good for trail driving 😀👍

[@ChiefRickyRC]

Awesome 🏆

[@Tammy-xf4kz]

That is soooo bloody good!!! Sooooo scale

[@paulmcnamara16]

Looking forward to the running and follow up vids for this matey

[@markcloudchaser874]

That's a pretty sweet truck, anyway Good Job, and congratulations on getting over 50k, subs, I hope everything goes well for you at the hospital brother. 🙏💯👊 PS just read your post, either way be lucky and stay safe. 👊

[@TomleyRC]

Cheers Mark

[@occrc3333]

The sherp in the back is sick! I got to find the review if you have one

[@TomleyRC]

Reviewed it a while back... just search ‘RC Sherp’ and it’ll come up

[@northeastrc2725]

This gives me the fizzzzzz so cool

[@anibalbabilonia1867]

That thing is cool! I want one!👌🤯👍

[@wolfenher6937]

That looks pretty awesome for a little 12th scale, but $275?! 😬 Dang.

[@TomleyRC]

The price you pay for scale

[@smallmodelcollector]

Looks good for some true 1/12 scale action figures to ride in.

[@NBC_NCO]

Nice looking truck. Why do the wheels have so much freeplay?

[@TomleyRC]

Not sure... I may strip it down at some point

[@Drivingdrew719]

One day ill have to try and get it it looks amazing

[@MCsCreations]

Pretty amazing looking car, Tomley! Fantastic! 😃 Great review! And I'm looking forward to the test run!!! Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

[@nick92065]

The first thing I would do is change the connector for the ESC to the battery. Not a fan of this type of connector.

[@TomleyRC]

Does the job, the little 180 won’t draw to much current for it

[@casssrc]

Great vids. Way is there a sherp in the back round? Hi from Casss RC in Israel

[@TomleyRC]

Sherp will be on a video tomorrow 👍

[@casssrc]

Can't wait 😉

[@ACeperienceRC]

It's on another level for the attention to details! 😮 Cool car and happy to hear that you are in good health! Need your vid for motivation😂😂 Btw, that xiaomi jimny is 1/16 😁😆

[@TomleyRC]

😎🤟

[@kcira8578]

I actually really like the wiring under the bonnet, look really scale.

[@TomleyRC]

Yes, looks pretty good

[@JohnAnthony_1]

I hope you find it's weakness in performance and show us how to upgrade it. I have been waiting for this 1/12 jimny, but there is only one store sell it here atm and the price more than 600USD 😅.

[@TomleyRC]

600USD! 😅

[@Oyvind88]

Love it, amazing🇳🇴😁

[@oioindoor8155]

Love your video's ♥️❤️❤️❤️😊

[@TheFlood69]

Literally was looking at these today :D ended up picking up the Xiaomi one cause 1/10 the price :D

[@phrg8332]

awh thats a shame, you can't really upgrade that.

[@Storyracing387]

I think MCM had a hand in making the name Jimny popular again 😁

[@wrchobby1451]

Neat, scaled up kyosho mini z.

[@goatrock714]

This one is Cool!

[@SharkysGarageRCandMore]

Such a scale lil truck, be interesting to see how it performs.

[@TomleyRC]

That’s this weeks plan... nice walk in the woods

[@hiitzmike]

I wonder what the top speed is? If it can crawl in one gear and keep up with walking pace in the other gear that would be ace. Looks great too

[@TomleyRC]

I’ll find out this week 👍

[@hiitzmike]

@@TomleyRC nice! Every review of these small crawlers never seems to show why the top speed is, I love my mini z overland because I can walk with it and would love to replace it :)

[@Callum-lf9jw]

Hi mate are you going to be doing a review on the new wltoys 124017 it's the new brushless buggy

[@TheScorpionRMA]

Love the Jimny, just bought the RGT Rock Cruiser V3 version of it. Saw an add for this one today and probably have to buy some flower for the girlfriend to try and convince her I need this one as well.... Besides that, great video 🤣

[@TomleyRC]

Flowers & Chocolates 😅

[@zoridor16]

great review! I admire the level of detail of this brand! But there is something that worries me a lot, is it the quality of the stock electronics, esc, battery, servo, were these 3 components designed to last long periods of use? Can Fms live up to axial, gmade, kyosho or traxxas in terms of electronic quality? greetings

[@rjansen6874]

Good luck in the hostpital, see you in the next one

[@JoeOvercoat]

5:31 Noooooo! That’s what I wanted to know: can I disable the ‘turn signals’? Everyone hates the guy that signals after they initiate their turn.

[@mi3192]

It's so cool. However I can't buy it here now. Because Amazon Japan don't keep any stock.

[@TomleyRC]

Hopefully soon 👍

[@KennethMamaril]

Do you put your lipo in storage mode to that jimny battery? I just bought mine and only have a usb charger.

[@BobbyatTBP]

Hiya, my grandson managed to snap the bonnet off, I've bought a replacement bonnet but I don't know how to fit it, do you have any ideas?

cool jimny..the steering wheel is moving too

Ridiculous attention to detail 😃 looks nice maybe a different colour. All the best for a speedy recovery 😉

[@TomleyRC]

Yes, crazy! No surgery now... I’m too healthy haha

[@alexwaterman2125]

I really want one of these but I'm put off by not being able to find mods or upgrades. do you think they will release upgrades?
