I was wondering what was going on. I started a thread about this last year. I thought this was it lol. @NCNitro can we merge this into the thread in general chaos please.

Why do we have two of these threads?

I just realized I forgot to locktite the steering link screw into the servo horn on our Ryft, and the screw backed out and mangled up the threads on the nice servo horn that came with the Tekin servo 😠

Yeah. I can't recall which RC(s). One may have been the Marui Big Bear I had because I seem to recall the wheel nuts loosening if I hit the brakes on pavement due to the pins being worn out a bit. Some of the older stuff didn't even have a pin drive. The old Kyosho stuff didn't have a pin or a...

I have seen reverse threads on wheel nuts before. To this day, I always have that thought popping in my head when I go from one side of the RC to the other.

I did something similar one time, but it was a phillips bit instead of a drill bit. I was driving a 2" long drywall screw into a subwoofer box I was building. I put all my weight into it, the screw tipped over, and the screwdriver tip sunk about 1/2" into the fleshy web between my thumb and...

I've seen some horrific pictures of prop damage to people's arms. I can view images like that and not be too bad. But some of the images I saw with internal parts of someone's arm hanging out of the gaping wounds just shouldn't be on the web. So when I was into drones, I never once worked on...

That had to freakin' hurt! I always try to tell my son not to drive his RC's towards people or himself at speed, and the other day I did that while we were filming one of our run vids of the Granite. I did a powerslide that stopped right at our feet lol. He gave me a well deserved earful when we...

That's why when you go rc'ing ya gotta make sure ya take it all 🤣

Oh, I just remembered a good one. During the summer some kids broke into our school and did over $100,000 in damages on two different occasions. They destroyed the highschool gym floor/basketball court. The school put the most beautiful floor in to replace it. A few months into that school year...

Cox airplane - now there is a blast from the past. I used to have those ones on a string where ya spun around watching the plane go up and down til you got dizzy.

Tell us the story. I'll start... I was 15. I just put a brand new motor in a Kyosho Javelin. I put a fresh battery in and turned it on, cradling the car in my left arm like a cute little baby. I was going to take it out for a quick donut or two in the driveway before taking off to an old strip...
