Not long after I got my forst computer, I ventured into the world of the electronic 'Bulletin Board' world.
Old computers – the remembrance vs. the reality (the Atari era)
I have fond memories of my early use fo computers, and I still keep some of them around, but my fond memories are not entirely accurate
RC Brands: Traxxas – the Titan
First in a series: Traxxas - the biggest (and fastest) name in RC. Love 'em or hate 'em, they are the one that everyone compares themselves to.
The Chase: Traxxas Slash
Project Slash gets the juice. Swapping to a brushless power system has opened up this truck, and greatly increased the grin-power.
Next Upgrade: Taking the Slash Brushless!
The Slash project continues, with the transition to a brushless electrics upgrade.
My first Arrma RC: The Felony
My first street basher, and what a beast it is. A 6S, AWD retro styled beast. A handful, a slayer of tires, and a hoover of debris, it also provides endless shit-eating grins.
Project Slash – LiPO and spring preload changes
This upgrade really improved the handling and drivability of the 2WD Slash. It really opened up the car, and the LiPO battery is easier to charge for me at least.
A surprise – 2WD Slash
As I get more hours and battery packs on the Slash project car, I find that it is becoming a favorite. Simple, easy to understand, and surprisingly fun to drive.
Slash 4×4 – a Quest
My recent experience with a base 2wd Traxxas Slash has inspired me to want a 4x4 version. I had *thought* a roller would be economical
Why RC cars?
Since I can't afford to drive/race stadium super trucks, I am grooving on the 2WD Traxxas Slash...
