Getting Back Into The Hobby
Well I was a strong user of Ultimate RC, I'm back into the hobby and see that URC died 
, hoping to mingle here and share stories, help with advice, and obviously get help too when i need it, not often i need help but there is always a time im just stuck and need suggestions. Any-who here is a glimpse of what I've been up to. Right now i'm saving up to get either a Arrma Outcast/Notorious or a Blade 360 CFX. I feel like I've had everything in the book when it comes to RC stuff, but there is a lot of new stuff now days and I'm loving it all the changes over the years.
Current Fleet:
Arrma Senton: buggy body with custom vinyl decals, 17mm knock off badlands, custom made debris cover over chassis
Kyosho Mad Crusher: been in the game for 18 years, had to have a nitro and wanted something I've never had, stiffened body and live axle housings with shoegoo, and installed LED headlights
DJI F450: Naza M V2, LED's, custom landing gear and battery mount
Radio Equipment:
FS-i6S: Custom installed 8db antenna's for the air dwellers
Radiolink RC4GS: for the groundies, with steering gyro "honestly doesnt work that well" haha
Batteries:
Zee lipos: 2x2s 5200mah
Ovonic lipos: 2x2s 5200mah
Goldbat: 2x3s 3000mah
Chargers:
HTRC: 2x 150w 10amp AC/DC, one touch screen unit, one not
Soldering Station:
Zeny: 937D+ digital
I have reviewed most of the items in my youtube channel I just started back up. Let me know what you think.

Welcome to RCU!
I`m primarily a .40-.60 glow powered ply and balsa kit builder pilot with a few foamies in the fleet. I do, however, own a vintage Duratrax .21 powered Thunder Quake truck I purchased new back in 2004. I know their reputation among serious hobbyists as being cheap junk, but I`ve gotten a lot of fun out of this RTR truck for $300.00.
Some nice vehicles you have there.
