This section is dedicated to the Kits I have been able to build and show others how easy – or challenging – this dynamic hobby can be.
I throw in some incredibly impressive Tekin Gear into my MadBash Short Course Truck
This is the first part of my upgrade video…
Lol.. This was super fun to do. I have had a back log of projects (because of building this awesome behemoth of a RC Media Site), and the NitroPlanes.com / Dynam “Grand Cruiser” airplane has been in the studio for a few weeks…

Lmao.. shortest Blog entry for me yet.. but still a great video for those interested in a good EDF jet. Meant for more of an intermediate pilot, I had one of my friends fly this for me during the demo video… We concluded that this Jet needed a 4s Lipo battery upgrade.. but over all.. it was a fun little Jet to get started with. I am happy to say (coincidentally), that the distributors are now offering the 4S option when the bird is purchased.. Cool!
This is my first build video for “NitroPlanes”, and I chose to build their new flagship EDF Jet, the Concept X. This model is an RTF version. This video is not a “step-by-step” DIY, instead a Tips, Tricks, and a general overview.
Enjoy my fellow pilots!
BUILD / Overview
For this posting / build series -.. I really want to take a moment and talk about my limited amount of knowledge in this area.. and it is truly a shame. Drifting is unlike any other type of car racing that I have seen.. truly a lot of skill has to be learned – and respected. If driven by the right people, being practicing and gifted with the talent of control – this RC spart of growing like wild fire. Truly an amazing this to watch, experience and master.
For this particular build.. I had no experience at all in putting together a drift car… but found out its fun, a challenge and a consistently changing type of RC Kit. To dial these little machines in is NO EASY task! Totally awesome.. and I suggest that you give it a try, if the urge strikes.
So.. Here is how I attacked my TT01 Kit.. and made it into my Drift / Touring Kit of the season. Lot’s of fun! ( And for the record.. Im a terrible drifter.. Lol)
PART 1 – INTRODUCTION TO PROJECT
Wow…
Amazing how I look back and see how the concept of RC Adventures was truly born.. Many people ask me about this Giant of an RC.. and how I was involved in doing such a build.
It is a unique story..
I remember drooling over these very expensive kits, well over half a decade ago. So original kit itself – without any upgrades – was fairly pricey (ie: 750 USD), and came with no radio, no electronics, and no battery. Just the parts to put together an AWESOME looking scale truck. Well.. as I knew if I took on a project like this.. that there is no way I could actually just leave it stock. This was to be my first ever – scale trail truck. I had caught the scale bug in a BIG way. So.. having a pretty good relationship with one of the local hobby stores, I approached the manager 7 the marketing director – and mentioned that I had an idea…

Another Build Video series arises out of the 2009 RC Season. This time the project was a XTM SUPER CRAWLER. With the collaborative sponsorship of EastridgeHobbies.ca and Team Airtronics, Medic Media Productions has created another RC ADVENTURE series catering to the SUPER CRAWLER enthusiast!
With the RC builder in mind, this “How-to” build video series is much more technical than past projects, and focuses on the build aspect of an “EP” class crawler – ARTR kit. Filmed as one production, this series has been cut from a complete DVD into 5 sections to be posted online at Youtube.com.
A special thanks to all involved in the development of this project, as we present for your viewing pleasure….
X-SUPER CRAWLER!!
Enjoy ~
