Going to join this necro-post.
Not sure if anyone remembers me, I was mostly a lurker.

Wanted to say that I'm graduated undergrad and will be going back for grad school. Studied engineering, ended up with a degree in business.

A lot of the banter that happened here taught me _so_ much information about circuits, electronics; loved it.
Read about Harold's passing and that hit hard; he was such a big part of this forum way back when.

Hope all is well with everyone else!

I decided to come by and check on everyone.
I not sure last check in but dang it has been a bit.
I still got lots of RC stuff myself.
On a side note
Merry Christmas all!

last post was 2015:whistle:

Rawbuns!!!

Dude, you got old. I can remember when you had your rc learners permit, and could not run without a licensed rc-er. The old days. Good times. Congrats on graduating, never managed to do that myself. Went for mech engineering and ended up fixing crashed cars for a living....

A trip down memory lane. I just bought new lipos to get stufff moving again.

I got busy on the slow stuff, a lots of travel with the family to fa away lands and now started playing on full size toys:

Project 1 : Mike helped with making the fender mounts - ended up being too fast and loud (aka wife hated it)

Project 2 : German classic which turned 50 this year

Sorry for the crappy photos it’s been a while!

good to see you guys!

Has anyone seen/heard of Mike lately??

Mike was in Chicago about a month ago and we got a chance to hang out for a bit. Was good to see him. He is doing well !!

Hey Jeff! Good to see you and glad to hear the monster is still kicking!

Thanks for the info, I appreciate it!

cheers

Just signed back in after YEARS.

I still have my E-revo with the Kershaw Designs 1/5 scale conversion and FPV camera/goggles.

Time to get back...
 

Hello friends!
It's been sometime, I am looking to get back into RC (2nd attempt, as per my son's request now :) )

I am totally lost with all new toys, where we are with brushless power nowadays? I am thinking about getting a 1/10 E-Revo/E-Maxx any good advice or should I get conversion kit rightaway?

Looks like ESC/Motors are not as pricey as they used to be, just recalling Lehner/Plettenbergs...

With Regards,
-Artur

Update: End up getting E-Revo. Looks like now I can get a good looking sensored setup from Tekin :) -> just need to find in stock

Wow! It’s been awhile since I logged in too. 2016 was the last time I was here. I remmber the fool old days. The forum was so active back then.

Going to try race again since there’s a track 45 minutes from my house.

Nice to see you man.

So cool for you to have a track nearby. Honestly the absolute lack of tracks locally made it hard for me to maintain interest. The only times I ever drove on tracks was when I traveled to other countries.

Have fun man, all the best!
