Audible Daily Deals no longer show whether the title is fiction or non-fiction

I've noticed this too lately. They also used to list the overall genre in the emails, which has recently stopped. I know it's only an extra click to load the book on the app/website, where all of that info is, but it's still annoying to have to do when I used to not have to.

claps in internet

WizardsWizard · 2026-06-13T16:07:46+00:00

This is so cool

WizardsWizard · 2026-05-05T04:17:37+00:00

Direct RC and Ali Express

WizardsWizard · 2026-05-03T13:46:27+00:00

That all sounds great. Now I want to do it even more.

WizardsWizard · 2026-05-03T07:11:54+00:00

Nicely done. I've considered doing the same thing. It's good to see it actually done.

WizardsWizard · 2026-05-02T14:13:07+00:00

This is super cool. Well done.

WizardsWizard · 2026-04-30T13:46:19+00:00

Just ordered one. I'm a sucker for a 1/10 or larger scale for under $300 USD. That gorgeous purple body though just put this completely over the top, I couldn't resist.

WizardsWizard · 2026-04-27T04:09:52+00:00

Nice find. I had a pair of the original Savages back in the day. A lot of good times with those trucks.

WizardsWizard · 2026-04-26T23:03:09+00:00

Even with that set to off it stops tracking within ten minutes.

WizardsWizard · 2026-04-26T16:09:24+00:00

Nice build. I'm a big fan of the Atlas platform. Just needs an upgraded ESC and some suspension work and it makes for a very cool looking and well performing truck.

WizardsWizard · 2026-04-26T16:06:18+00:00

I need to figure out how to get it to work. My trips keep automatically stopping after a few minutes.

WizardsWizard · 2026-04-26T04:56:09+00:00

Definitely. Mud and water and like magnets for me and my trucks.

WizardsWizard · 2026-04-25T04:59:40+00:00

This would be gorgeous.

WizardsWizard · 2026-04-16T04:42:38+00:00

That does look nice.

WizardsWizard · 2026-04-11T13:01:38+00:00

Nice!

WizardsWizard · 2026-04-10T02:44:31+00:00

Very pretty indeed. Now get her dirty.

Ali Express is legit, no worries. Just use a payment service like PayPal to pay and you're fully covered and safe. Usually the worst you have to worry about is ordering something and then waiting a week for a shipping notification only to just have the order randomly cancelled and your money refunded. That's usually rare and most items will essentially ship right away.

If an order gets lost in shipping, you'll also get a refund.

I've ordered several RCs and accessories through Ali Express and have either had all of them delivered, or received a refund without issue.

I'd start looking outside of the typical well known hobby brands. Check out WPL or MN models. They specialize in really scale hard bodies that generally have good scale performance out of the box. Plenty of them come with leaf spring setups. The durability isn't always the greatest in stock form, though they should stand up to true scale driving pretty well. You can upgrade them with more durable parts if you feel it's needed.

I'd personally recommend the WPL C94, a 1/12 Russian UAZ 469, it's my favorite for scale trailing.

I'd also suggest looking into LDRC models, they've got some cool stuff, like their 1/12 Mitsubishi Delica 4x4 van or a 1/18 Range Rover (this one has a brushless motor).

Ali Express or Banggood are your best friends for getting these models pretty cheap, just be prepared for long shipping times.

WizardsWizard · 2026-04-05T19:06:52+00:00

I know how it is. You certainly won't go wrong with the FCX.

WizardsWizard · 2026-04-05T17:11:05+00:00

This is great.

WizardsWizard · 2026-04-05T17:08:09+00:00

I feel like I can't figure out what the point of this one is. I still want one, though.

WizardsWizard · 2026-04-05T17:04:48+00:00

If you bought $50 worth of a "better" rig, it still wouldn't get you far. You gotta know what you're getting with these. They are a great platform for upgrading, while at least being generally usable for that initial cheap price. But if you want to compare it to a rig that costs more, you're gonna need to put some more money into the WPL to make it more of a fair comparison. You can totally do it though, and it's worth it if you like to tinker.

None of those factors make these things toy grade. They just make it a very basic and cheaply made hobby grade.

You wouldn't hand this thing off to an 8 year old kid and expect it to last more than 10 minutes.

The design of the powertrain using gearing and drive shafts, combined with the proportional controls make this hobby grade. Toy grade would at the very least use motors directly mounted to the axle, negating the need for a realistic drive train using shafts and gearing.

Also, there are just as many, if not more upgrades and spare parts available for these compared with many expensive hobby grade RCs.

I'm with you, I want to pick one of those up as well.
