A Note from Vermont RC founder on why he RC’s:
What makes R/C trucks so captivating? Why do I often find myself thinking about these small, powerful machines? Sometimes, I even wonder if I’m a bit obsessed, and honestly, some people probably think so too. But that's OK! Last night, I took some time to reflect on why I enjoy this hobby so much, and I narrowed it down to three key reasons. Upon further thought, I realized that what really draws me in is the combination of scale R/C vehicles, the desire to escape to the mountains, and the need to disconnect from the daily grind.
Here are the three main reasons I love R/C trucks:
1. Disconnect and Escape the Everyday Chaos
Life can get overwhelming, and sometimes you need a break from the constant demands of work, family, and life in general. R/C trucks provide the perfect opportunity to disconnect. They give me a chance to step outside, focus on the truck, and forget about everything else. Whether I’m in the mountains or simply in my backyard, R/C trucks allow me to recharge, clear my mind, and take a break from the stress of everyday life.
2. Reignite Creativity Through Simple Fun
R/C trucks are not just toys—they’re a gateway to creativity. Whether I’m customizing a truck or taking it on a new adventure, R/C vehicles encourage imaginative play and problem-solving. This hobby is a great way to reconnect with your creative side, even as an adult. It’s so valuable to reignite your imagination in a world full of routines and structured tasks. R/C trucks provide a unique outlet for creativity and exploration that helps me stay curious and inspired.
3. Immerse Yourself in Nature
Spending time outdoors is essential for both mental and physical health, and R/C trucks are an excellent way to experience nature. Whether it’s crawling over rugged trails or exploring new terrain, R/C trucks let you slow down, enjoy the scenery, and immerse yourself in the present moment. I often use hashtags like #OPTOUTSIDE and #OUTSIDEISFREE on my social media posts because getting outdoors is one of the most refreshing ways to recharge. R/C trucks help me reconnect with nature and focus on the beauty around me.
In Conclusion
R/C trucks are more than just a hobby for me—they offer a chance to disconnect, reignite creativity, and immerse myself in the outdoors. Whether you’re a seasoned enthusiast or just starting out, the joy of R/C vehicles is endless.
