While My Batteries Charge RC Podcast

It’s been a minute since the last episode of While My Batteries Charge, and there’s a LOT to catch up on.

In this episode, Tony talks about the 10th annual Great Lakes Gauntlet, the mud, the mayhem, and some of the mini crawler competitions that made the weekend so much fun. He also dives into the newly released CompFrog hard bodies, why they were created, how the short and long versions came together, and what builders are already doing with them.

There’s also plenty of RC talk from the past couple of months, including Horizon RC Fest, a 205-foot ARRMA Typhon 6S long jump, the Axial SCX30 Toyota Tacoma, the new SCX10.3 Jeep Cherokee XJ, Furitek releases, FMS crawlers, Hobby Plus Ford rally trucks, RC NASCAR, Mojave GROMs, lap timing systems, and even a 70+ mph hydroplane.

And because this is While My Batteries Charge, somehow the conversation also wanders through hydroplane racing, AI thumbnails, getting stuck in the mud, camping in a trailer, smoking ribs, and building a carport.

Basically…there was a lot to catch up on.

Thanks for listening to While My Batteries Charge!

Been busy working the past 6-8 weeks and it's limited my ability to put out RC content. I'm still working on things behind the scenes and racing, but I've dropped off on talking about it. Right now things are clearing up and I'm getting the RC "engine" fired up again. 

I recorded this Live back in May, but never pushed it to the Podcast channels because things were super busy on all fronts. But Horizon brought back the Losi 5ive this time in electric form and the ARRMA Talion speed basher. Both great trucks decent fanbases. 

In this episode Tony talks about the busy-ness of life and the start of the 2026 WMRCMT Race season

On this episode of While My Batteries Charge RC Podcast we'll be looking at the new Universal Rocks crawling courses and the Axial CJ-7 V2

This time on While My Batteries Are (dis)Charge Podcast we'll be talking about some new products from Losi & Reefs RC and looking at a new MinifabsRC titanium 24th scale chassis I've got coming in the mail.

Two topics for our main discussion today. We'll be sharing about the new Axial SCX10iii Toyota SR5 and then follow up with RC Monster Truck talk after JConcepts revealed more about their upcoming kit release of the Reactor.

Late start to the Podcast this year, but what a great topic to start with. The main focus of this will be on the teased JConcepts Reactor Stage 2 Retro Monster Truck Kit and RC Monster Truck racing. I'm sure I'll get off topic and talk other RC, but that will be the main thrust.

2025 was a great year for CCxRC. We hit 100k subs on YouTube and have seen a big spike in our overall views on all platforms...even this podcast. So to all of you I say, "Thank You!".

Time for another CCxRC podcast! I'm hoping to get at one more WMBC in before 2026. In this episode we'll talk through some of the recent releases and bring back the SCX30 talk now that they've landed. I've also go more monster truck racing to talk about and plans for 2026 I need to get sorted.
