In this episode of the CCxRC podcast, hosted by the RC maestro Tony CeCe, we delve into the tumultuous world of radio-controlled vehicles. Brace yourselves, ladies and gentlemen, as we navigate through the choppy waters of price hikes and updates that have sent shockwaves through the RC community. The looming specter of tariffs and manufacturing costs has cast a dark cloud over beloved models like the Arma 3s lineup, with prices skyrocketing from $299 to a staggering $379. It's a tale as old as time, with each price bump feeling like a jab to the gut of every RC enthusiast out there.
But fear not, for amidst the chaos emerges the striking Arma Granite 223s at $349 and the formidable Kraton EXB 6s at $799, showcasing the industry's relentless pursuit of innovation and quality. The spotlight shines on the eccentric LMT Mini Megalodon, a monster truck with a quirky body design that straddles the line between bizarre and brilliant. Its black chassis offers a canvas for customization, allowing enthusiasts to unleash their creativity and transform this beast into a personalized powerhouse.
As we peel back the layers of these RC marvels, we uncover subtle yet crucial upgrades like the robust 6mm tapered aluminum links that promise enhanced durability and performance. The podcast also delves into the realm of sales, with Horizon Hobby tempting enthusiasts with irresistible discounts on premium gear like the i6r SR6 radio. The Polaris RZR and Axial SCX24 G models are also on the chopping block, offering enthusiasts a chance to snag these gems at a steal. And let's not forget the riveting collaboration between CCxRC and Monster Jam, as footage of the Mini LMT release takes center stage, showcasing the thrilling synergy between these titans of the RC world.
