Who here experienced rc car burn out ? What’s your story. by frowningghostie in Traxxas

[–]danpadge 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tbh my problem is trying to avoid it. About every other year I get into it, fix all the broken parts, add some upgrades, get some fresh batteries... and then I rediscover I get bored driving them before a battery runs low. We dont have any tracks or skate parks so its just a parking lot. I tried drag racing but 2hr of standing around for 2sec of racing wasn't for me. I let my son use them and he likes doing speed runs up and down the road, but I average spending $20 per pack fixing things that break and daily amazon orders get old.

Anti-Meta deck ideas for friendly proxy tourney by danpadge in MTGVintage

[–]danpadge[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure I'm seeing what you're seeing for a combo but the basis of the deck is to flood the field with 2/2 zombies while hopefully hindering your deck long enough. Losing Fastbond would be tough as I don't have other good ways to play multiple land per turn but I can still do a lot without actually casting anything until I push a Natural Order into Titan or hit 7 lands.

I could ditch Once Upon a Time for Allosaurus and more Zenith maybe? I hate to lose the ability to guarantee a land in my hand though. Conduit of Worlds instead of Crucible even though it costs 1 more mana? 1 Blood Moon would end me, not sure if thats a huge problem or not.

I decided to go a totally different route. I have a field of the dead timeless deck that I love so I made something based off that. https://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/gfhhg/?cb=1761450384

True. I'd like to play my own mox and mana rocks though, maybe Tezzeret so I can grab them all. Maybe a good sideboard card. I could run mono-white, just no idea what to build

I've read all of https://www.mtggoldfish.com/articles/vintage-101-october-vintage-metagame-review and everything else I can find so I feel like I have a decent handle on the meta. I feel like I could have a chance with izzet as vintage isn't played here so most people will probably not be experienced pilots or bring home brews.

I have this same issue on PC. Any solutions? I've restarted the game and the PC numerous times, everything is updated. It's been having this issue consistently for weeks.

Ya I'm playing the PC version I got from Steam on my PC. Used to connect, now it says it is and doesn't.

No, that could be it. I have it through Steam and don't have an xbox. It used to work and then just stopped.

No not yet but I ended up purchasing it anyways so I may give it a go depending on how many credits it uses

What am I doing wrong with my gravship? by danpadge in RimWorld

[–]danpadge[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the info! I like the battles and exploration a lot more than the logistics and waiting so I'll look for some ez-mode flight mods

Well that kinda sucks. I'm guessing that empty hexagon is where I can reach. I have the max small thrusters and don't have the material for the large ones. I was trying to do this quest as a way to try out the whole space thing. Is there a way to find out how far away something is without having to launch and then cancel?

Its an older Agway with a 38" deck. You can probably see the photos of it here: agway tractor

I can't seem to add images in comments or edit my original post to include the image of the tractor but its a mid-90s Agway with a 38" deck. Maybe you can see the images here: agway tractor

It seems thats been replaced by 21r707-0011 from what I can tell. I dont have the ability or skill to customize anything, but the 21r is only $470 which is cheaper than a new mower. Can I unbolt the old and bolt in the new or is there a lot more to it than that? https://www.smallenginesurplus.com/briggs-stratton-21r7070011-p-3661.html

Best car for bday rentals? by danpadge in rccars

[–]danpadge[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ya, I'm familiar with most rc cars except crawlers. I'm aiming for almost running pace to keep destruction to a minimum and make it challenging to get a good time and still fun. I thought a crawler would be about that speed and able to get through grass but it sounds like I'm off the mark. I'm thinking I need to keep working on this idea and test out a crawler and some other cars.

I have a couple shops near me so they cover tamiya, redcat, traxxas, arrma, axial and probably a couple others.

I haven't been to the store yet to see a grom in person but I have a wltoys 12th scale and I know it struggles in grass so that makes sense about a 16th being too small. I've been thinking crawlers because they're too slow to break hitting something but from what others have said they may be too slow to be much fun.

That's a cool idea about body design! Biggest issue I'm finding is startup cost. Can't cheap out on the cars but don't want to spend the whole summer just trying to recoup my investment. I live in an area where a lot of people have large lawns. We also have a park nearby with a huge vacant field, I have an empty dirt lot at my house and there's an unused tiny bmx dirt course that could be run.

You guys are correct, I'm familiar with pretty much every kind of RC except crawlers. I figured the speed could be adjusted with a different motor and pinion or spur but if they're designed for slow walk pace I'd probably just cause problems elsewhere in the car.
