New year. New RC Fun! This year I'm planning to jump back into the RC Monster Trucks hot and heavy. I'm not getting out of the 1/24 scale....just looking to be more focused and do them and Monster Trucks pretty regularly. We'll see how well I can stick to it. I know I can't keep trying to do everything RC related alongside the other work I'm doing …

Axial is going and tugging on some of my heart strings with their latest release of the CJ-7. I'm not nostalgic of anything CJ-7 related, but rather the type of driving they showed in their release video as it reminded me of the RC crawling that got me hooked 8 years ago. Before I talk about that, we'll talk about the comp I was at last night and t…

I have been so excited about the release of the LMT Mini ever since I heard it was being made. We've been working hard to build up interest in mini RC Monster Trucks for a couple years and this release takes them to a whole new level. Losi absolutely nailed it on this release. I'm also really excited about the Losi RZR Rey and the scale performance…

Coming to Horizon RC Fest or Axialfest Badlands? Bring your SCX24s and AX24s to have some fun Carnival Comp'ing with us. Next weekend we'll be at Horizon RC Fest June 9-10 with One24Mop putting on a fun comp for 1/24th scale crawlers. At Axialfest Badlands we'll be using the same rules, but using the natural settings near the 1/24 course they setup…

Putting things from the past couple weeks to bed and moving on so I can find the joy in RC again. Running RCs puts a huge smile on my face again and that's what I'm looking to get back to. On top of that, I found that Kyosho release a Mini-z 4x4 Defender 90 that is beautiful and Gens Ace new D300 charger is amazing. Let's talk about it. Support the…

"What happened to the podcast? We love it. We want more episodes" - While My Batteries Charge Listeners. I have heard you loud and clear. Please know that the podcast isn't going away. I'm always shocked by how many people I meet in person always mention the podcast. It's crazy. Thank you for your patience. I'm working to reboot things around here …

It's finally here! The episode I've been teasing for a while...how 24th scale RC crawlers are similar to what the hobby train scene was like many years ago. People are building courses in their house to run these mini crawlers. I had Jaysen's RC's on with me to discuss it. Sub to Jaysen's RCs: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3_18No-HmTDLiY6fGDYfJ…

Happy New Year you RC Freaks! I'm super excited about the possibilities for 2023. It's nice to start with a clean slate and a clear mind for the year. My goal is to work harder to make my 2022 goals have even more of an impact on my personal RC journey–and that starts with learning to say "No." As a "helper" personality, that is hard for me to do. …

It's been a while since I recorded a podcast and much of that is to blame on the Monthly Mayhem event I was participating in. It took up most of my time and we weren't allowed to discuss details until it was over. So I didn't have other new stuff to talk about and I couldn't talk about the Monthly Mayhem...which left nothing for the podcast. Now th…

Welcome to the RC-Crawler-specific edition of the podcast, where we only talk about things related to crawlers. It was bound to happen some time...that and Josh from Harley Designs made fun of me for how many times I say "Monster Trucks" in a day...so I had to try not to say it too much in this episode. Get your SCX24 dialed in with upgrades from h…

Got a couple topics to cover in this one. I just got back from a trip to Virginia. I had a shoot with a non-profit client for an upcoming video series, and reached out to Ryan about doing the livestream with him last week. I also got the new ARRMA Outcast 4s–which is amazing! The final topic was the Great Lakes Guantlet event coming up in Michigan …

Axialfest Badlands 2022 was off the hook! I'm so glad I was able to make it–even if it was only for a day and a half. Definitely was the best one yet and very well attended. The trails were laid out really well, the events I saw were well run and well attended (I didn't get to see TTC and the Concourse). They gave away tons of cool prizes and the t…

As someone who has as Masters Degree in Communication Arts, this is a really frustrating problem for me. The frustration really lies with the companies that allow intellectual property rights to be so blatantly infringed upon, make it hard to report/remove, and continue pay people who do it because they want people interacting with the app regardle…

I have a lot to say about the RC Monster Jam World Finals. Some about the racing and freestyle, but mostly about the experience. What an amazing event they put on for the pit party. The Losi LMT proved how impressive it is as an RTR RC Monster Truck Platform this weekend. If you are looking to get started in solid axle RC monster trucks, this is a …

When it comes to the RC Hobby, we all make mistakes along the way. Don't let it get you down. Learn from it and move on. My mistake was pretty big and during a time when I needed to be getting things ready for a big race. Instead...I had to tear down the truck and repair it. Lesson learned. What RC Mistakes have you made that you've learned from.…

Lots to talk about in this episode and I don't even talk about some of the cool new RCs coming. I'll have to have another episode about that. This is episode is about my trip to Freestyle RC Raceway for their Spring Trifecta, the CCxRC Mighty Handy Tool selling out in under 24 hours, more CCxRC products coming, upgrading the SCX24 Bronco so it does…

Axial's new SCX24 Bronco just hit store shelves and I was able to get my hands on one...errrr...three. The mini RC game is really stepping up and my boys and I have fully jumped in. You can check out the CCxRC line of hopups for the SCX24 here: https://www.ccxrc.com/ Get a new Axial SXC24 Bronco here: https://bit.ly/3udNu5i…

Are you feeling bored or disconnected with the RC Hobby? I've been there, but I don't know if it's actually boredom or a mind game that's going on inside. I'm still actively engaged, but don't feel as plugged in as I normally do because I'm focusing on a different element of the hobby, but thinking about the one I was plugged into months ago. It's …

It's been a tough final week as I work to get my Tiny Gappin' It Build ready to throw down it's run time for the competition. Weather has SUCKED! Honestly weather or not...I procrastinated because of other "life" things that took priority over playing with toy cars. The show must go on–Rain or Shine...or Snow (which we just had last night). Video e…

We're into week 4 of the Tiny Gappin' It Build Off series and I finally got to put my build on the ground to test it. The goal is top speed within the 90' x 12' area. I tested my speed and was a bit disappointed. We did extend the deadline to March 27th to allow for more testing and tuning videos so it isn't a one and done build. We realized it was…

I was asked to start sharing these livestreams as a podcast for people who want to listen while working. I'm going to give it a go and see if they jive with the normal podcast uploads or not. This was from the livestream with RC Amigos last night on the CCxRC channel. We discussed the Enduro24 "Tiny Gappin' It" Build Off we are doing. Who wants to …

This podcast is a bit of a rant. Some may want to skip it, others may wish to indulge. Hit a boiling point with the feigned righteousness and the experiences of other RC people being used to say I lied an overhyped things. I don't take well to my integrity being called to question. Just because you pay for a car, doesn't mean your review is better …

It's been a few weeks since the last podcast, so I've got a bit of a brain dump on this one. Lots coming for 2022. What do I think of the new Traxxas Maxx with Widemaxx. My comments are pretty positive on it. I like it. Mofo RC and Furitek RC have some interesting new products coming for the micro RC enthusiasts.…

Unless you've been living under a rock big enough for a SCX6 to crawl over, you've heard of Josh from Harley Designs. His channel is immensely popular and his weekly Scale News Update shows keeps up-to-date with all the current releases and announcements from the industry. I asked him to come on so we could talk about how he got started in RC and h…

Today's guest is Eric Padilla from RC Patina Guy. He creates some of the baddest paint jobs of rusted out and patina'd beauties. Since I like things a bit grungy, I love his work.
