Radio controlled vehicles have been a passion of Mike's since he was a kid. But these toys aren't just for kids.

Experience:

Mike has been involved with radio controlled vehicles for over two decades, buying, modifying, building, and racing both toy-grade and hobby-grade RC vehicles. Since 2006 he's been producing tutorials and teaching about radio controlled vehicles through About.com.

Education:

Electronics training in college allowed Mike to get more deeply involved in the technical aspects of operating, maintaining, and building RC vehicles.

From Michael James:

As both an RC enthusiast and father I have been helping my son, step-daughters, and wife explore and learn more about the world of RC vehicles. I hope to extend that enthusiasm and knowledge to visitors to About.com Radio Controlled Vehicles as well through the reviews and tutorials found on this site.
