The other day I was doing some surfing on the net and stumbled across a cool company that makes scale shops, Skrzypek Rc Scale Garage. Not only can you get some wicked backdrops for a shop, but you can also get some handmade scale furniture. What is cool is that it is not just one shop print, you can add [...]
Hey guys, big apologies for missing Monster Truck Madness last week. One of only a few times I’ve ever done that. Been crazy round these parts. I’ve had some e-mails I’ve been hanging onto, some quite lengthy, so this week we are going to have mega-mailbag. Hi Doug, Quick question. The only thing holding me off from buying an LMT are the [...]
What is going on Everybody, hope the week has treated you well and the Rc Gods have kept your rigs in good shape. For me, this week has been a very productive one with a lot of rigs for The Ultimate Scale Truck Expo near completion. 2020 was a nightmare for me as well as it was for most of the [...]
What is going on everyone hope you all had a great week and are getting ready to do some Scalin’ this weekend. For me I have been fighting a nasty cold my little boy decided to bring home with him from daycare. And just to clarify it is a cold and not the Rona, but it has still kicked my [...]
Hey all, it’s ya boy Doug, coming at you hot and heavy with another dose of LMT talk. After a lot of discussion, my monster truck club Trigger King R/C has come up with a set of rules for a Losi LMT Spec Class. We will be running it all summer long. The rules we’ve come up with are as follows: The [...]
Our road to the Ultimate Scale truck Expo has grown every year since we have been attending. USTE 2021 will be our 3rd year at the event and we plan on making it our best one yet! Just like everyone else we have a serious case of Event fever and can not wait to get out and play. The first [...]
The Losi LMT is here. Many of you already have one or have one on the way. With the truck finally out in the wild, I can now discuss something that I’ve been dying to talk about. Where does the Losi LMT fit in to the r/c monster truck racing eco-system? Speaking as someone who is a race director for a [...]
Hello and welcome to this week’s Everybody’s Scalin’. It has been super busy in the scale shop with multiple projects going on. With that being said, I think its time for a little shop talk.First up is the Gmade Buffalo, this build was a lot of fun and everything went together smooth. I am immensely proud of how well the [...]
Happy Losi LMT release week, folks! That’s right, this week the LMT is shipping to hobby shops or directly to you if you pre-ordered! I know the wait was hard for many, especially given that it didn’t ship in time for Christmas, but hey- what a way to start off the new year, right?! The word on the street is that [...]
Hey gang, happy New Year’s Eve edition of MTM! Last week I talked about three things I selfishly “wanted” to see in 2021 from the r/c monster truck hobby. This week I’m going to talk about three things that I actually think will happen. I think the first thing we should note is that the hobby had a fantastic year in [...]
Hey gang, happy holidays! I wanna wind down the last two weeks of 2020 with two lists- this week things I WANT to see in this segment of the hobby in 2021, and next week some actual predictions of what I think WILL happen. Both are quite different! So, without further adieu, here are 3 things I’d personally love to see [...]
Christmas has come to the Scale shop a little early this year thanks to DSM Off-Road! DSM Off-Road sent over a few goodies along with some new items for the Element Gatekeeper. So, grab your favorite holiday snack, and sit back while I tell you this Everybody’s Scalin’ Christmas Tales.I have always liked the Kinetic Recovery Gear from DSM Off-Road [...]
Hey gang and happy holidays! You know, for those of us that do rattle can paint jobs there is often a misconception that you are limited in palette by the available cans of paint versus the crazy amount of stuff out there for airbrushes, where it’s common to mix paints and pigments and create all sorts of crazy stuff. You can still [...]
Hey gang, it’s that time of year again to give (or receive!) the gift of r/c! This section of the internet focuses pretty much on the hardcore monster truck crowd, so I’m going to dial it back a notch and give a recommendation for the total noob in your life this holiday season. Many hobbyists, especially those who are younger, start [...]
December is upon us and you know what that means, new RC season! For those who still have not decided on what to put on their Christmas list I have a few suggestions that might help. And After the Year we have had I think everyone needs to treat them selves to some RC goodies. Weather it is a new [...]
