At the time of this filming - where we are from in Canada and in many parts of the world it is very cold weather. As a small relief to some of our viewers experiencing such low temperatures and can not get their "RC fix" outside.. we share this RC ADVENTURE with you in hopes it gives you a smile, to help give you warm thoughts! :)
Real or Model? It's a Model, of course - but it sure does trick the eye.. In this video I use one of my custom model Radio Control trucks that I have brought down to a tropical area. The original Model was a Tamiya CC01, but it has been completely done to model one of my first brand new Full Sized trucks, back in 2012. Full appearance package and all.. Some of our viewers may remember it from past videos. This model is build to look and function as close to a full sized pickup truck as possible, though the size of this model is only 1/10th in size - and weighs only 7lbs, with a 7volt Lithium Polymer Battery installed. This truck has been specially made to go into the ocean water, and resist any damage.
My goal in this film was to show the fun of the radio control hobby, specifically in the growing area of 1/10th scale "Trail Trucks", and modelling "Realism". The hobby of radio control is quickly expanding world wide, and the best part of it - is you can involve the whole family!
Today, I want to fool your eye with the photography - but, all the while reminding you that it is still a radio control model.
Jem, Maurice and I had decided to take some time to do something different for our viewers and change the location of our show - if even for a moment! This resort was Great for Maurice's first vacation (Our now 4 year old Son). They didn't know we were coming, nor that I would be shooting a video here - and we were treated so well!
A Special Thanks to Roberto, the Concierge (for taking me up to the TOP of the resort to get that awesome intro shot to this film [It is not a Drone Shot]), the entire friendly, and helpful staff. Jaquie, and all the wonderful ladies at the kids club, providing fun and engaging activities for Maurice and other kids to take part in.. Vladimer, Efron, Mario & Jaun took good care of us all around the beach, serving us lunch, water, drinks.. anything we wanted.. and Marisol, and other folks tidied up everywhere we went - even though we did our best to keep our room clean! Haha, Maurice's Lego was all over.., Not to mention Dad's (me) RC truck parts strewn about.
Enjoy my friends.. this RC video was fun to make for you.. we hope you enjoy it, and pass it around for others to see!
