The RC Newb Podcast - Episode 68: DIY Small-scale Crawling Courses & Obstacles

Thursday, March 19, 2020 • Duration 22:47

Small-scale R/C crawlers have come into their own in recent years, and with models such as the Axial SCX24 and Carisma MSA-1E, you can replicate the fun of 1/10-scale crawling just about anywhere you go. When you aren’t able to wheel your tiny truck outside, there are plenty of ways to build your own indoor crawling course or set of obstacles.

In this episode of the RC Newb Podcast, I share a few of my favorite materials and approaches to building scaled-down crawling terrain.

Show Notes:

Redcat Racing continues their busy 2020 with the release of the Wendigo rock racer.

The RC Newb Podcast - Episode 67: Diving into the Carisma M40S and Pro-Line Pro-Fusion SC 4x4 Kit

Monday, March 2, 2020 • Duration 24:17

Once you've popped the lid on the R/C kit-building experience, it's hard to turn back. Such has been the case for hobby experience. Following my Tamiya Grasshopper project, I've been on the lookout for new kits to check out. Over the past few months, I've been focusing on an on-road machine from Carisma and an off-road blaster from Pro-Line.

In this epiosde of The RC Newb Podcast, I'll share my thoughts on both of these models, as well as the experiences that I had building them.

The RC Newb Podcast - Episode 66: A Closer Look at Axial's SCX24 Deadbolt, Carisma's MSA-1E 1976 Ford F-150

Monday, December 30, 2019 • Duration 25:14

Looking ahead to 2020, let's not forget about two fun, capable small-scale crawlers that arrived on the scene in 2019. Axial's SCX24 Deadbolt was a surprise release and has quickly become one of my favorite 1/24-scale travel companions. In addition to this little rig, Carisma refreshed their MSA-1E with a new motor and gearing setup, making this small-scaler even more impressive than before.

The RC Newb Podcast - Episode 64: Orlandoo Hunter OH32AO3 Kit

Thursday, September 26, 2019 • Duration 19:19

Everyone should build a kit. If you haven't experienced building a radio-controlled machine from the ground up, you should add that to your hobby to-do list.

For seasoned pros who have assembled more 1/10-scale (or larger) models than they can count, may I introduce you to a different challenge; a small-scale build. Earlier this year, rcmart.com gave me the opportunity to build an Orlandoo Hunter OH32A03, a 1/32-scale Land Rover Defender-style micro crawler. Since I'm always up for a challenge, I happily accepted there offer and spent more than a few nights turning some tiny wrenches and assembling this indoor explorer.

In this episode of The RC Newb Podcast, I share my thoughts on the build process for this kit, along with some recent hobby/model news.

The RC Newb Podcast - Episode 62: Workbench Roundup

Monday, April 29, 2019 • Duration 23:00

This hobby truly has something for everyone. I've found myself spending more time at my workbench on a variety of tune-ups and project than I have actually wheeling an R/C vehicle, but I'll take the calming effects of a hex driver any day of the week. Between upgrading the handling aspects of the Carisma Scale Adventure Lynx to updating the look of my Traxxas TRX-4 Sport, I've had a variety of vehicles up on jacks, including a challenging small-scale build.

In this episode, I share a few of my current upgrade projects, touch on some of ARRMA's latest go-fast machines, and share a few upcoming events that you might find worthwhile.
