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 or worse. There is more to take to account: location, temperatures, driving skill, type of driving, etc. Two first experiences will never be the same. Your bad experience doesn't negate my good experience and it pisses me off when people use their negative experience and bad attitude to try to claim that they are showing people the "only real experience" and use a weak argument that our experiences are some how hyped or false. Watch the freaking videos. We've done a lot and still are running them with no issues.
What irks me the most is that the rest of the negative Nancy's in the comments aren't capable of separating the one bad and negative experience from the overwhelming amount of other good experiences. There are good influencers and bad influencers and it has nothing to do with whether or not they get free stuff, but by the fruits of their attitudes. Seeing a lot of people leaning in hard to the negativity for views. Rotten fruit spreads quickly. People will be negative, step away from it. Embrace the good. There will always be bad, but you don't have to live there. Find the positives, enjoy the good and don't dwell on the bad.

In this episode I discuss the new ARRMA Fireteam release and why I think it is one of ARRMA's best RCs. Then I switch gears to talk about the Monster Truck Wars show that we did an RC intermission for.

2022 is starting off big with the new Primal RC Raminator V3 announcement and a new C10 Mega Truck. But I'm also liking the small side of things and just finished a Furitek Scythe build with Mofo RC SCX24 upgrade parts. We'll talk about that and more.

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 how he found full-time employment in the industy.
