Hello fellow rc hobbyists. This Wednesday, all the makers and shakers of our most beloved industry will converge on Chicago, home of BigSquidRC, and also home to the largest expo in our industry. Pallets, crates, and two wheel dollies will be filled to the rim with booth making materials, where all day Wednesday industry types come in and set up [...]
Wow.. sure is quiet around here. As all the major RC manufacturers (including yours truly) get ready for the big iHobby Expo 2008, most big announcements are held for the show days. Make sure to keep it tuned to Big Squid RC for all your RC news during the show days. We will do our best to bring you [...]
Last week, our own cub reporter started to let the cat out of the bag talking about some Big Squid RC news in the near future. Well, this is the news he was talking about. Not only will Big Squid RC invade iHobby Expo 2008 again, bringing you all the latest and greatest in RC [...]
When it comes to people you admire, at least in the RC world, everyone always has some top pro drivers that they worship, and just think are the greatest people ever. When it comes to who bashers worship, it’s XXXMain. Well.. maybe BigSquidRC, then XXXMain.. (Just kidding!) Seriously though.. these guys have been hardcore bashers forever, and [...]
This video was with everyone’s favorite RC tech guy, ‘Scooter’ from Team Tekin! This one had a pretty funny blooper, as another company at the show kept running some electric turbine jet thing at full throttle every few minutes. It was loud and annoying, and had good timing. 🙂 Enjoy.High Res version here: Big Squid RC iHobby 07 – [...]
Looks like we finally have the videos rolling out! Wish us luck that we keep going and we don’t melt another computer. This new video features Pro Driver Tim Mohr in the Castle Creations booth talking about a new ESC. We have been working with Tim for a long time, and he is by far one of the nicest guys have [...]
We shot a lot of video at the iHobby expo this year in Chicago, and finally got a chance to cut the videos and get them posted. This is part of a set we did with a lot of the manufacturers at the show. Each person was told to introduce themselves, then they had 15 seconds to describe their RC [...]
Ok, so what’s with the picture of a bunch of shoes? I honestly don’t know. All I know is that when I showed up to take some pictures, the guys from Global/Hobby Shack all started comparing shoes and pointing out who’s were the best. When I took the picture, they thought I was a goof [...]
I was having trouble deciding what picture would lead part 4 today. I had a good shot of Tim Mohr’s 18th scale nats winner, complete with winning plaque and a new ad that looks like he is wearing a Santa hat. Or I could put up another shot of our two biggest fans. Both [...]
Pro-Driver Adam Drake was there to help entertain the crowds. He looked like he was having a good time driving some 1/18th scales around and impressing the people with some driving skills. It’s always fun to see the pro guys a little out of their normal element where they can relax a little. [...]
Pro-Driver and good friend of Big Squid RC, Tim “Hollywood” Mohr smiles for the camera in the Max Amps booth. There was a ton of cool new stuff at the show. MCD, Vantage, Axial, and Schumacher all had awesome stuff to show off! Make sure to hit the jump at the bottom to see the full [...]
Lets start to get some pictures posted shall we? As you can see, it’s very hard work at these big events. All the pictures, all the news, everyone asking for my autograph and to have their picture taken with me. Here’s a shot of me with two lucky Big Squid RC fans. This is part one [...]
Things were a little slow this weekend, and I’m going to assume the next day or so will also be slow. All the major companies and their marketing people are on their way to Chicago for the iHobby expo! I have a feeling it’s going to be a really great show this year! Here at Big Squid RC headquarters [...]
Just a reminder, the iHobby Expo event is coming to Chicago October 20th and 21st! I will be there handing out stickers, as well as getting pictures and interviews. For more information check out iHobbyExpo.com.
