frizzen - Indy indiana
 

Hi i'm frizzen, and i like toy trucks.

Operator is Jeremy, I'm an aircraft mechanic. I always liked remote control toys, i'd had a fair amount of toy grade stuff nothing impressive, one of my favorites was a wired very small (maybe 1/36 or 1/43 scale) semi truck with a lowboy trailer.
Eventually got into hobby rc while in a&p school when another guy in class sold me a traxxas rustler. Few years later i got into rock crawlers when axial brought out the ax10, been into micro stuff a lot since it takes less bench space to work on than 1/10 or 1/14. Been working on a mini-me scx10 of my 1999 Jeep Cherokee.

You may have met me already on some of the other rc boards like rccrawler, scale4x4, bitpimps...

Right now I'm working on converting a 1955-56 Nylint #2200, Clark Michigan T24 Crane to remote control. I've also got plans in the works to convert some old dumptrucks to rc also.

Scratch build Tatra 813 that was once a zipzap monster truck, around 6" long. Can't find painted pics.

Welcome to the Forum. You are in good company, as we have more than 25 members from Indiana, some newer and some very accomplished builders, but all available for helping with problems and answering questions. There are some really cool static conversions here, so keep up the good work on yours and post plenty of pictures.

From one Hoosier to another... WELCOME!

I mostly build military & armor RC vehicles and sometimes they are just static. I'm a member here to mostly learn and hopefully have a 1/14 RC tractor?!!!

Lots to learn here for sure. :D
