Default Going to iHobby Expo. What ya wanna see?

Hey guys,

I'm going to be heading to the iHobby expo (http://www.ihobbyexpo.com) in Chicago on Thursday. I plan on getting a ton of pics and interviews and stuff. Any special requests? There any products you guys want me to get some extra pictures of? Any questions you want me to ask anyone.. like Where's the MGT 2? or Whatever happened to the Spider?

Open for suggestions.

Brian

Nomadio's made some hints at some fantastic new radio they're coming out with. If you could check that out while you're there, I'd be appreciative.

Team Losi Micro-T

Is it worth the $$$?

Picture with the body off would be cool.

Thanks.

All good suggestions..

I got word from a friend setting up a booth that Losi does have a few little surprises for us! So I'll make sure to check it out.

I have also heard the rumors about Nomadio, and make sure to drill em. I did a review for the Sensor recently.. and I'm still pretty happy with it.

Thanks for the suggestions!

Brian

Hey guys,

I'm creating the pics now, and will post up a semi un-organized picture set in a few hours. I did get to see the Micro-T with the body off, it's tiny! Nothing new from Traxxas (3.3 was it) and Nomadio was not at the show.. unless I missed them.. but pretty sure they are not there.

There were a few cool products.. Duratrax Warhead EVO looks like it has potential, CEN had some serious hop-up stuff coming for GST as well as their new Truggy which is coming soon. Mamba Max was amazing! They have 2 mamba motors driving one of those Kid Escalades! That's impressive.. it spins the tires and pulls donuts!

There were a few big names missing, but everyone there was very nice! If your in the area, I would suggest trying to make a trip out to show your support. Show them that all rc does NOT happen in California.

Ok.. going to go work on the pics.. I'll post a link shortly.


Brian

They were at the Molzer Mowery Racing Booth.

Oh! That's what that was?! Hmmm.. I'll make sure to check it out Friday! It looked a little ugly.... to the point where I thought it was some cheap radio, and passed it by. I'll try it out and gets pics.


My still camera died early at the show, so these are all taken from vid caps.. sorry the quality isn't the best.. but it's better then nothing.

First page of pics starts here: [link=http://www.bigsquidrc.com/pictures/ihobby06/]iHobby Expo Pictures![/link]

there are 74 pics! Hope you like em!

Brian
