Traxxas Steals the Show In Leatherman Video

Traxxas Steals the Show In Leatherman Video

This is ostensibly an ad for the Leatherman Leap, “your kid’s first multi-tool,” but with wall to wall Slash and Rustler action, it plays like a Traxxas ad. Best parts: where the kids drive into the woods where there’s no way they could possibly see their trucks, yet the action continues; the mid-air transmitter transfer […]
Kev’s Bench: Project Old School Update

Kev’s Bench: Project Old School Update

With the holidays and a magazine behind me I have finally been able to get a little work done on my old school monster truck project. I have a few suspension parts to design and make so I had to get the frame rails connected and Tamiya F-350 springs mounted in order to figure out […]

RC Fire Trucks Put Out RC Tanker Fire

RC Fire Trucks Put Out RC Tanker Fire

Want to see an RC fuel tanker drive off a bridge, burst into flames, then get put out by a fleet of water- and foam-shooting RC fire trucks? Of course you do. Oh, and for the record, you should never play with fire. But watching this video is perfectly safe.
Pro-Line Now Has a Stadium Truck (sort of)

Pro-Line Now Has a Stadium Truck (sort of)

Pro-Line’s PRO-2 SC short course truck, PRO-2 Buggy and PRO-MT monster truck aren’t being officially joined by a stadium truck (that we assume would be called the PRO-ST), but this build from Pro-Line’s Holeshot blog sure looks factory. It’s based on a modded PRO-MT, and the conversion is easy. There’s no telling if this could […]

TrackStar D-Spec Drift Gyro Gets You Sideways On The Cheap

If you’ve ever wanted to experiment with a gyro for drifting (or cheating in the Parking Lot 500, we won’t judge you), TrackStar’s new box will let you electronically mitigate oversteer on the cheap–the D-Spec Drift Gyro is just $19!

Team Associated Reveals RC10T5M Stadium Truck

Team Associated Reveals RC10T5M Stadium Truck

Since the release of Associated’s B5 buggies, we’ve been expecting the A-Team’s latest off-road tech to transition to a new “T” stadium truck. Well, it’s here! The new RC10T5M is offered exclusively as a mid-motor design, and as expected it carries over the latest innovations and tuning features of the B5M buggy with a wider footprint […]
Three-Wheel Drive Drift Trike? YES

Three-Wheel Drive Drift Trike? YES

Danny Huynh of Sydney, Australia is the creative mind behind this astounding build, which takes drift action from four wheels down to three, complete with “3WD”–the front wheel gets its own motor! Gotta love the articulated driver figure. You can see more of Danny’s builds on his Facebook page, and on YouTube.   You should […]

What’s Next For RC? Our Predictions for 2015

What’s in store for RC in the year ahead? It’s anyone’s guess, but if you want to know what we’re guessing, this is the place. From the hot and happening to the fizzled and fading, we reveal our predictions for what the next twelve months hold in store. Are we on target or off base? […]
Axial Wraith “County Mounty” Project Build

Axial Wraith “County Mounty” Project Build

This Wraith-based custom reels in the rig’s wheelbase and width for a more scale footprint and tops the chassis off with a Chevy C10 body and police colors to create a five-oh 4X4. Those are the broad strokes—there are many more detailing tricks and custom touches between the bumpers, as you’ll see for yourself! Click […]

Kev’s Bench: We Need More Injection Molded Bodies!

Kev’s Bench: We Need More Injection Molded Bodies!

There’s no doubt that injection molded bodies are the most detailed bodies available and that’s why we see them showing up on most scale trucks these days. The problem is that we don’t have enough bodies to choose from. We have the Toyota Hilux from Tamiya and RC4WD, the Toyota Tundra, Clod Buster Chevy and […]
WATCH: 1/5 Scale Snow Racing

WATCH: 1/5 Scale Snow Racing

Snow racing with 1/5 scale cars is pretty cool, and by cool we also mean cold. We’ll take a gallon of hot chocolate to go with that gallon of gas, please. Lots of great action and sounds here, as the big gas burners slide their way through the white stuff. Take a look!
