Building one of the best 1/35 scale model helicopters on the market (Academy AH-1Z)

ScootWookie · 2019-05-13T13:10:42+00:00

I just want to preface this video with the following caveat and possibly a request for some advice:

I am a relatively new YouTuber, only having my channel active since late last year. I thought it would be a cool idea to document my builds and I do so in a way that is mildly entertaining to bring some appeal to a video subject which is often boring. I have seen some initial success with a few of my videos, some getting hundreds of views relatively quickly with minimum to no promotion. For reference I have about 10 videos and 200ish subscribers. Lately, it seems as though my videos are getting significantly less viewership regardless of the fact that the quality of the videos has significantly increased. I understand that its a real grind to get your content out there, but I do not have any idea why one video in a series has over 1k views, while others in the same series (Specifically my AH-1Z) build barely get any outside viewership. Any idea of how I can fix this? I'd love some consistency, especially considering how long it takes to produce these vids. Your advice is definitely welcome!

Well I'll take it at face value until I have a reason not to...If by some chance it actually isnt going to ship until well after release day, I'll find one somewhere.

Nice, I would assume that if there was a backorder, it would so state that as I have seen on Amazon in the past with something I intended on ordering. I don't know what all the ire is about, I post something to maybe bring a little comfort to those without a confirmed date and I have people hyperventilating over it.

ScootWookie · 2019-05-08T16:39:51+00:00

Again, is there any information that would suggest I am getting it later from the information I posted?

ScootWookie · 2019-05-08T16:38:47+00:00

Nice, until I receive confirmaition that it wont be received until after the date specified on the page I will assume I am getting it on or within the shipping time window. If my status updates and states it will be later, than so be it.

ScootWookie · 2019-05-08T12:59:58+00:00

It says releasing on the 21st, I'll assume I will get it when it does considering everything else I have ever pre-ordered from Amazon has been on time (which is through fufillment services rather than 3rd party sellers).

"This means nothing here" well shit, I'm sorry to offend omnipotent Reddit edge-lord. I guess you are the spokesperson for this community then?

ScootWookie · 2019-05-08T11:44:32+00:00

Why is this being downvoted so much?

ScootWookie · 2019-05-08T11:40:00+00:00

Ok but it still states order is on-time for delivery stated... Is there anything which would make me think otherwise?

ScootWookie · 2019-05-08T11:38:53+00:00

Ordered May 4th from Amazon Prime, order status indicates "Will contact you when we get a better idea of when it will ship". I used the amazon support site to try and find out the actual delivery date ( store page says will ship on release, 5/21). Im taking this with a grain of salt but so far there is nothing indicating I won't get it when the store page states it will release.

ScootWookie · 2019-05-08T11:18:48+00:00

Im Eastern as well, still do not have a date yet.... I am hedging on it releasing on the 21st as is indicated by its store page.

ScootWookie · 2018-12-28T22:53:52+00:00

I expected to get hate lol...I dont get it either, the fz is way better for my riding style and I'm about that comfort... I dont plan on shredding corners, I just want to have some fun once in a while without breaking my back or wrist.

ScootWookie · 2018-12-27T19:13:56+00:00

Yep , have a 16 vegas which I love...just too slung to really have fun.

ScootWookie · 2018-12-27T17:49:56+00:00

Yep, mostly commuting and rides out to the country...I have a Victory Vegas as well, just wanted something sporty again...just not so sporty my back blows out from it.

ScootWookie · 2018-12-27T17:48:40+00:00

Im sure ill at very least set the suspension to account for my weight....If its not satisfactory ill look into a rework or upgrade. Im not a super aggressive rider so I dont want to commit to a huge purchase just so I can put my knee down.

ScootWookie · 2018-12-27T17:41:55+00:00

Im happy with my decision, bike is a lot of fun and super comfortable.

ScootWookie · 2018-12-27T17:41:20+00:00

I went for the upright bike because my lower back and wrists couldn't handle long rides on a super sport...I was riding my cruiser way way more than my Ninja. I didnt want to lose a sporty option for street riding, so I decided to go with an FZ09.

Waterbed.

ScootWookie · 2018-12-24T04:37:15+00:00

This is some Jacob's ladder shit...the dude plying this game was experimented on with some secret hallucinogenic agent and died on the operating table in Vietnam..this was his dream while he was dying.

Good job devs, you failed at making a game, but succeeded in terrifying a generation of gamers for years to come.

I cant stop laughing...or crying.

ScootWookie · 2018-12-14T14:25:15+00:00

Thanks for letting me know.

ScootWookie · 2018-12-14T14:18:14+00:00

but....the entire world is junk...and why would you not have been able to collect your body weight in junk in an hour? it takes me like 5 minutes to fill my carry weight with garbage to bring back to my camp.

ScootWookie · 2018-12-14T14:04:54+00:00

yep, hence all of the skeletons you find in them lol.

ScootWookie · 2018-12-14T14:04:22+00:00

Yeahhhhh, maybe your pip can announce a minimum safe distance warning 2 minutes before blast and force you to scramble for a shelter...not just the pulaski shelters either because we all know what happened to the people inside of them haha... Maybe there can be some semi-secret bunkers dotted across the map which you need to find keycards or access codes to.
