I became a new dad to a newborn son. Strange for me to say it after all these years. I was THAT guy thinking it wasn't necessary, that it would be okay unmarried and without kids. No looking back now lol! Typing this as I try to figure out the basics of holding, changing, burping, balancing work, be...

In the late 1970’s Electro Craft had an ESC that gained popularity at the NORCAL 1/12 electric racing series in the San Francisco Bay Area of California. I think Electro Craft was based nearby in San Jose. They had a fast sponsored driver named Steve Betts. As I recall they had some overheating and ...

Maybe we'll continue to get rain and Australia will turn into a nice lush green country, and more than 20% of it would be habitable. I'd be happy with that.

Thank you all! I really appreciate the practical advice around infant fathering too...your stories and suggestions are so helpful!

I just finished the design of a 3D printed rear bulkhead for my RC10T. I printed it using carbon fiber infused ABS. The original bulkhead weighted in at 25g, this printed part weighted in at 9g without the brass threaded inserts, 13 with the inserts. Everything seems to work fine, I suspect that it ...

We are all dealing with an AGI JAMMER (as in gear jammer) from late 80's. No ham and egger (including me) gonna hold up to that smoke! Lol Yeah, showing my ignorance there. I didn't get the significance of it. I was wondering why folks were excited about a pan car with a Stealth. :? I thought the t...
