The Killer Krawler has arrived

I received this giant crawler from RC4WD.com for a magazine review this week. The Killer Krawler is a perfect balance between form and function. It's 100% CNC aluminum, and at 1/6th scale it's simply absurd. I'll be posting more about it after the print review comes out.

Here is my son doing some fixin'. It's in the blood :)

Gear Ring

This is such a great idea, like a planetary gear ring that actually works. As soon as I saw it, my wedding ring went mysteriously missing. This would make a suitable replacement.

Phasma - Cable Driven Critter

Check this thing out, it's way too cool. I've dreamed cable driven robots like this, but would never have pulled off this perfect execution of concept to machine. The speed and motion is just amazing....I want one!
