RC Paddock - Thanks for the love, I've made a ton of updates from your feedback!

A couple weeks back I posted about a site I've been building for us RC folks, I wanted to say thanks and show what came out of your feedback

First post blew up way more than I expected, and a bunch of you left suggestions that were honestly better than what I'd planned. I've spent the last week and a half just building those out. Quick rundown of what's new:

  • Garages - You can post your whole collection, car by car, with photos and specs. Browse other people's too. Started as a marketplace but a lot of you just wanted somewhere to show off the fleet, so now that's the heart of it.
  • Wanted posts - can't find it in the listings? Put up what you're hunting for and let people come to you.
  • Painters - custom body painters can show off their work and take requests. Handles quotes, payment, shipping, and progress pics so the buyer can watch it come together.
  • Events & Places - find local tracks, bash spots, and meetups, or post your own.

It's free, no app, and I'm a solo dev so it's a work in progress...but it's a lot further along thanks to you all. If you want to throw your collection up in a garage or just poke around, link's rc-paddock.com. And keep the suggestions coming, I'm reading all of them and truly appreciate the support!

Spot Check my TLR 22X-4 2.0 DC build?

Picking up a new car (and my first build kit ever) for Father's Day today! I spent last night picking out my electronics, but could someone spot check me that I have the right gear before I pull the trigger?

I'm going with the 160A ESC so I can eventually run mod classes and going with a Savox servo because I've found that I have issues with ProTek servos and my flysky NB4+

I built an RC site for us to buy/sell/trade, show off our collections, and easily find editable setup sheets

This has been a passion project of mine over the last month or two and I'm excited to finally share it with the community. I didn't love facebook groups for finding used cars so I'm hoping this can be an answer to that and give us a one stop shop that makes that whole process easier. I've thrown in a ton of features and am pretty happy with where it's at right now, so far I have:

  • buy/sell/trade with offers and counter offers
  • orders to help manage payments and shipping and local pickups
  • saved searches with notifications/emails when a new listing matches your filter
  • add cars to your garage to see your entire collection
  • setup sheet PDFs that are editable and shareable
  • wish list to notify you when a wish listed car goes up for sale
  • chrome extension to auto-fill facebook listings from listings on our site (WIP)
  • instant messaging

Really looking forward to hearing what everyone thinks about this, if you want anything added just let me know. Also, this is totally free, I just want to build cool stuff that people like to use.
