Some 1/5 scale dusty donuts

Weather is finally nice today so got the custom 1/5 scale out for a run. Gotta love how much dust this big ol' 50lb truck kicks up. I looked like I had walked a mile through the desert by the time I got done running it :lol: Think I finally have just about all the little bugs worked out now. Got abo...

10 years later

Had one of those "memory" picture pop up on my facebook feed today. First pic was me about 10 years ago at 403 lbs 😬 Picture below it is me today at 213lbs (190lbs lighter). Sometimes I wonder if I had not made the lifestyle changes I made over the past 10 years if I would even be around t...

Took this one out to show it some love

KJLUnV-NCTM Just a brief vid from today. After getting the giant 1/5 custom monster truck done a few months ago my smaller 1/10 & 1/8 scale monster trucks I built have just been sitting on the shelf. So I took down one of my Clodbuster based carbon fiber chassis Hesse axle trucks and charged it...

Re: Any Arrma Felony owners?

Have been seeing a few videos of guys doing 8s with dual escs/motors. Like you said though, I doubt I would do that. Seems like quite a beast right out of the box. From what I have read it's around 60mph with stock gearing or 80mph with high speed gear. So that's more than I would need. The skid pla...

New addition to the RC fleet

https://i.imgur.com/jmoFB7A.jpg Decided to get a new RC and since I have multiple monster trucks I decided to add a bit of variety to my RC collection with this one. Picked up an Arrma Felony yesterday. Also bought a clear body for it as well (was an expensive trip to the LHS lol) so I could airbru...

My latest project (scale garage)

Something I have been working on for the past few weeks. May very well be the height of my clinical OCD lol. Have been 3D printing and painting everything for a scale garage scene for the Felony. Everything is 3D printed, then painted/detailed. Pictures on the walls are resized pictures I took up on...

Theater room project finished

Finally finished a 3D printing project I started about 3 weeks ago. Bought a pair of side tables for the theater room with the intent of doing a diorama on each one of them. First one I wanted a Wizard tower with a Kraken attacking it and a dragon sitting atop the tower watching on. Pretty much ever...

Re: Home theater

Looks great 8) Is the ceiling fiberoptic star ceiling or painted? If it's fiberoptic and you did it yourself then I know the pain that is lol. When I did mine in my theater room I think I spent at least a week of 8-9hrs per day on just running, routing, trimming each of the fiberoptic strands :oops:...

Re: New addition to the RC fleet

It's ORANGE ! The fish is shocked and the duck hates it , I like the colour though . Wasn't orange for very long lol. The first thing I do when I get a new car is buy a clear body to paint. I just never liked having a body that everyone else has. So I sold the stock body and painted up this one for...

New project

After finishing up my giant 1/5 scale monster truck build back in the spring I had told myself that was going to be the last project/build for a very very long time. Guess that idea lasted all of maybe 6 months :lol: I really couldn't help it though. I have been wanting a set of Freestyle Rc axles f...
