sorry to hear about your brother. Mustā€™ve been young. Thatā€™s tough. My brother in law passed year and was only 53. Always hard to lose some especially when they arenā€™t that old. Good you kept something to remember him by.

I don't have any siblings... it was great as a kid to be an only child, but as an adult I wish I did... so I don't know how it feels to lose one, but I am sorry for your loss. ?

I am also the youngest out of 5. 2 brothers and 2 sisters. I lost 1 brother in 1973, he was 21 on his motorcycle and was hit by a drunk driver. I was just 14. I lost my older brother in 2018, he was 70 and died from a combination of Parkinson and lewey body disease. Very tough to see him go like that. I'll be 62 on Friday. Life goes on but not the same.

Man, two bros. Real sorry to hear that. It gets harder as we get older and more people around us pass away.

So weird the stages we go through. Hanging out with friends and parties. Then weddings. The family get togethers. then funerals. Weird.

Just picked up a 1/6 scale RC Harley Davidson Fat Boy motorcycle made by New Bright. Got it to go with a kit bash Terminator I threw together. Has a regular head and a light up battle damaged head. Motorcycle has sounds, can be heard in video. Havenā€™t driven it yet. Have to wait for the snow to melt! Have to get a different left hand. Not perfect but good enough.

I don't race but I have a mini t brushless I like to play with
Those are pretty quick! Small brushless vehicles can be a handful to drive. I donā€™t race either. I donā€™t have time to go to a track, none local anyway. I just tinker on my own.

Just something to think about if you want to tinker with the Mini T. Iā€™m not that familiar with them but I think they are 1/18 scale? Not sure if itā€™s RWD or awd. If you have a favorite 1/16 model car you could tinker with making it into an RC car. I sort of off and on doing that with a Monogram ā€˜69 Camaro body and a 1/18 scale Team Associated RC18. Got these for free surprisingly as the RC was broken so going to extend the wheelbase and it might not be quite wide enough but might be good enough.

This guy makes cool RC General Lee videos. He took a Walmart General Lee body that is maybe 1/12 scale and used a Duratrax Vendetta chassis. I think another guy used a 1/18 chassis on his as this General Lee body is narrow.
