Lots of changes happening in the world and they are happening in the RC community as well. Losi Dropped the heavily upgraded LMT 2.0 and CCxRC is ready to fire things back up in a big way.

Happy Thanksgiving! There's some new RC stuff to talk about, but also a bit of my journey to this point and why I'm thankful for you and the RC hobby.
Things are finally settling down after the awesome weekend at the Great Lakes Gauntlet! We had mostly great weather and lots of opportunity to run RCs and hang out.
In this episode I talk about 2 game changers in the RC arena - Furitek and Vanquish. Furitek has been changing the game in the mini RC platform for years and continue to create new products that take it further. Vanquish has been making next level products for years and their new VRD lineup makes the entry into RC crawling comps much easier for people like me.
It's been over 6 months since the last podcast and I wasn't sure I was going to bring it back after such a long hiatus, but after many requests from the listeners....it's back! As with much of my CCxRC related social media it will be changing in some ways as I try to bring it all back to the hobby and less about the newest shiny product.
Coming atcha with another podcast. 2 weeks of snow kept me from going up to the studio to record, but warmer weather is making the path and outdoor stairs manageable again. This episode i talk about my Hardpark Crawlers vDub, the LMT Mini, a new Furitek ESC, etc.
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 now. It's too much and it really doesn't let me get invested into the areas of RC I enjoy the most. Here's to a new year and more RC fun!
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 then compare the Losi LMT Mini and the ARRMA Granite Grom.
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 it delivers. As my bashing style has changed to a bit more of a scale driving style, I appreciate vehicles like this so much more. This episode also ...
It's been almost 2 months since the last podcast, so there is a lot of topics to cover!
I had a moment to talk with Greg Sopa and Alan Manriquez from Horizon Hobby/Losi at the world finals. It's a good chat.
While it is still fresh in my memory, I wanted to do a quick recap of Axialfest Badlands 2023 from my perspective.
Just got back from Horizon RC Fest 2023 and it was a blast. Already looking forward to Axialfest Badlands and have to get busy building the new Axial SCX10iii Base Camp Builder's Kit to run there. Pre-order the Axial Base Camp Kit: https://bit.ly/3X6xhM9
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 because it's the perfect terrain. Because comps are not the main focus of either event, we've created some rules and 5 different classes to keep it e...
In this episode, I'll be talking about how I got into 1/24 scale mini RC Comps, why I love the ARRMA Granite 3s so much, and about other hobbies I have outside of RC.
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.

"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 and make more time for the podcast. Hopefully this one will help explain why there haven't been very many in 2023.
Just got back from USTE 2023 and it truly is one of the best RC events in the world. I could tell you why in the description...but then you wouldn't listen to the podcast which doesn't make sense. Enjoy!
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-HmTDLiY6fGDYfJA
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. I like to say yes and help people, but I'm at the point where it's no longer helping people as I can't keep up. Letting people down really stresses me...
Let's talk about some RC Monster Truck Racing and a new product from Furitek.
How do I feel about the Traxxas TRX-4M after one week of use and what will it mean for the rest of the Mini RC market? Find out in this episode.
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 that it's over, let's talk Monthly Mayhem and the newly created King of RC content on CCxRC.
I hope your day is off to a great start. If not, hopefully this will help turn it around. In this podcast I talk about the new Furitek Cayman, how the Great Lakes Gauntlet event was, and minis vs. Monster Trucks.
