Welcome to my page.
I am Jody Shaneyfelt and I am addicted to RC cars and planes and pretty much anything else RC.
I am also a big time aviation and race car lover so you might see some full scale stuff here as well since I like to duplicate full size cool into my smaller size Radio Controlled stuff.
I spent 37 years working on real racecars and warbirds.
I will give you my honest opinion of RC cars, Planes, or whatever else so you can enjoy the hobby as much as I do.
It all started in the early 80's with the Tamiya Grasshopper, Frog, and Hot Shot.
Then I started racing the RC-10 gold pan cars and now it's all coming full circle many years later.
Thanks for checking out my channel and please share, like and subscribe and help me to build this channel into something we can all hopefully enjoy..

Flying Dads B-17.... 😁 #B17
Old video I found in my email of me flying Dad's B-17 a couple of years ago at an event at our RC club.
This B-17 is painted as the one my Dad got shot down on, on their 5th mission with the 385th bomb group.
Sorry for the background noise but the kids that were there were definitely having fun. lol..
This is the same B-17 that Hobby King sells.

Atlantis Doolittle B-25 Unboxing 😁 #madeinusa
zhlédnutí 309Před 21 dnem
Brief unboxing of the Atlantis Doolittle B-25 Mitchell. There's just something about a B-25. It's always been a favorite of mine since I first saw one in the Arizona desert at the Pima Air Museum in Tucson. For the age of these molds the parts fit together pretty good. I definitely think it'll be a fun build. If your new to my channel, Welcome, I'm glad you found it. Please Subscribe, Like, Com...

#RunYourFleet2024 Challenge. Tamiya ORV chassis's.
zhlédnutí 324Před měsícem
Here's two more Tamiyas for the #RunYourFleet2024 challenge. I've always loved the ORV chassis cars since I was a teenager and racing my Frog. Hopefully I'll be able to get a frog again someday. The Blackfoot was built by the awesome RC Elf. He painted it up in a Masters of the universe paint scheme and I'm always careful with it because I don't want to get it scratched up. These two are defini...

I was hoping to fly my Dynam C-47 on this 80th anniversary of the D-Day invasion in Normandy France. As usual mother Nature had other plans with high winds that grounded us today.

Bitgo Hobby the most failing online hobby store on the market Bobby K must be an absolute Genius Business Man. :) Holy Smokes were going out of Business
The biggest problem with that plane? and i know cause ive had 3 of them is the damn spinners and propellers are always horribly OUT OF BALANCE. and the control horns will all get loose and falls off cause there not glued in so great from the factory. Bitgo hobby basically doesnt exist anymore they have absolutely no inventory at all getting parts for Dynam is nearly impossible over all so there not a great plane to keep looking good
Yeah I noticed that with the control horns when I was building it. But the out of balance props and spinners just make it sound more like a real 310.. 😂😂
@@flyingfortressrc1794 The problem is that with out of balaced props you loose alot of power
Did you finally complete the kit? How'd it turn out? I just seen one going cheap at my local hobby store... btw feed the cat meowing in the background 😆
I walked away from it for awhile but pretty much just need to do the body and front suspension. It's turning out ok. I need to get back on it and get it finished though
Just made my day
Thank you 😁
That is cool!!!
I believe some of the Atlantis kits were from old Revell moulds, I've been wanting to get one of their 1/46 (I think, odd scale for certain) P39 kits.
Yeah they are definitely old molds. A P39 or P63 would be cool
Those are definitely old Revell instructions
PAY IT FORWARD BROTHER 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Most definitely 😁
Nice B-25 !!! Cool deal 👍🏻✌🏻🖖🏻
Thank you and Thanks for watching 😁
Looks like an old Revell kit, based on the instructions. Cool 😎
Yeah she's definitely an oldie but a goodie so far from the build. 😁
A great project.
Yeah it's actually a neat little build. 😁
Very cool. Nice wheels.
Thanks Trey 😁
Pretty cool kit I bought a few at ollies... Cause I want to try out using painted decal paper for making the canopy frames and do a diorama of the K9 plane in the twilight zone episode I think its the same plane.
Oh wow I don't know how but I've never seen Twilight zone yet but looked it up online and it's definitely a B-25. That sounds like a great idea for a diorama 😁
I remember building that kit back in the '60's. It is not very accurate but fun to build.
Yeah it's a good building kit, plus I can add a B-25 to my ceiling. Lol
Absolute piece of trash plane. Is a Belly lander but design is one of the most belly lander unfriendly designs ever made. Mines living in a bin. From unbox straight to bin after failed launch that totalled it.
Man that sucks. I've flown the 3s version for years both as a belly lander and with gear and it's been good. I haven't finished building my 4s version yet because I'm waiting to get a gyro receiver for it. I'm going to be flying mine with landing gear so hopefully it's better that way 🤞
Very cool they had something that fit perfectly!
Yeah it was great. Now I just need to find another set. Lol
Nice
Thanks Bud 😁
Nice wheels.👍
Thanks buddy 🙂
Picked this up at Ollies, have not opened it yet, I guess if I'm looking for a challenge I now know what kit to grab lol. Thanks for the input!
Thanks Kreg, It's definitely a challenging kit but it's coming together. Just had to walk away from it for a while. Lol
Nice build, man!
Thank you 😊
Beautiful car and paint scheme! Subbed to support our community!!! 🤘😎
Thank you and Thanks for the sub. Yeah I'm not a wrap fan much at all. Lol
Thanks for the ride.😁👍
Thanks buddy. Hopefully soon it'll be with other cars out there. Lol
Very cool.👍
Thanks buddy
very well done😊
Thanks a lot 😊
Great job on this. I was thinking of doing this myself. Have a great weekend 🤜🤛🐭
Thanks buddy. Yeah it's not exact being a Galaxie with the different grill and a few other minor things but it's close enough for government work. Lol
Yeah when that kit came out that’s what I had in mind also just haven’t got around to it yet nice Build turned out very very nice
Very cool.🤓👍
Cool build, brown with blue interior ? What were they thinking? My guess is that the car was originally white or blue, but they wanted brown. I like the undercarriage, I guess this was pre-ferry boat jump😅😅
What are those rims and tires? They look awesome and would like to know.
Great build I had a real one mine was a 71...351c
What about that LCG that ain’t legal.
At the tracks around here in NW Ohio and NE Indiana it is legal and all you see racing
Gone most of the summer. 😂 Others can challenge. I'm going to Europe!
Looks like it’s gonna make for cool builds
Would 6.5 150watt marine speaker fit on the front side by side for Bluetooth build?
Love the ORV chassis Tamiya's..... especially the blackfoot! I own three monster beetles, a blackfoot, and a mud blaster. Like you, would definitely like a Frog one day! Got a video coming up on Green Hawks soon of the monster beetle versus the King Blackfoot on the more modern revised ORV chassis.... Which was quicker around the track? Great run dude! 👍 👍 👍
Nice troop transport, looks sharp with those invasion stripes.
That is cool.
Thanks, she's a fun flier. 😁
A favorite of mine too, the C-47. Does well innthe rain too.
I'll just take your word on the rain performance.. 🤣
@@flyingfortressrc1794 there's video. Have a look. 😊
That’s bad a$$
Thanks buddy 😁
Great run, the Holiday Buggy is pretty quick 👍
Thanks. Yeah it's just a silver can 540. Lol
Beautiful Buggys. Nice run. Have a nice weekend.
Thanks buddy, Hope you had a nice weekend too 😄
The body rattle 😂
Yeah it does rattle a lot. Lol I'm gonna try to find some foam body mount pads. I have some just have no idea where. Lol
Nice buggy and run
Thanks buddy.
Cool wish I could run mine there all in a big box two rc10s one is a world's car and a nitro traxxas with some tamiyas thrown in all need work! 😥😪😥
Oh wow. They just reissued the gold pan RC-10 again so it might be a good time to look for parts. I've got two I need to finish rebuilding. Hopefully sooner than later. Lol
Great run of these two vintage icons! RC 'ing stripped down to its bare essentials. These things are always such a blast, just proving you don't have to spend huge amounts of money to have huge amounts of fun! 👍 👍 👍
Exactly.. I've been driving mine a lot lately off camera. Even though their not super fast, they are fast enough to put a huge smile on my face and that's all that matters. Lol
@@flyingfortressrc1794 Too right fella..... The hoppers and the CWO1's are the best bang for ya buck! 😂 I've been inserting #RunYourFleet2024 into the description of any running videos we have put out recently..... hopefully lots more to come! 👍 👍 👍
love both these iconic rc's 😃😃👍👍😎😎
Yeah they are a ton of fun for sure 😁
Nothing else out there has that distinct sound like a hopper chassis chirping as that rear end bounces all over the place.
Yeah that's for sure. I've been driving mine a lot lately off camera. Old school fun😁
👍😂👍
Two of the greatest cars of all time :)
Most definitely 😁
