I've built scale models since I was about eight. Started with snap on and got pretty detailed through High School. Haven't built a model in ages never really had the money for good RC.

I like scaled versions. So, I think its pretty cool. I like how it even had a Genny box.

The guys are having a good time with it.

Honestly run a gold cube with your kid or grand kid... or if you had the chance run some cons through a scaled wash plant with a seven year olds grin on your face!!

I know what I would pick.

For some things growing up is not recommended

Ive been into Rc most of my life and It has been a great hobby when I cant get out to do other things. I do a lot of my RC stuff in the late fall early winter when I'm cooped up inside a lot. Jarrod the guy you posted I follow and he builds some of the coolest re contraptions Ive ever seen!

I bet Toad from Gold Rush has one of these in his backyard to practice with. Word id he is going to has his own production company. Maybe this would work for him, he could scale it up and make look like the real thing and he would have the same issues, water and breakdowns.

Love it, Man I bet the best gold miner ever Todd is eating his heart out, these guys found more gold than he did in the jungle. Maybe I should invest some of my IRA with these guys.
