While my main passion in the R/C scene is crawlers and trail trucks, I'd love to venture into the speedier side of the hobby from time to time. The folks at Hobby Plus gave me the chance to take a closer look at their new 1/24 Speck-T Brushless Stadium Truck, and let me say...it's one […]
Hobby Plus has expanded its 1/24 Speck lineup even further with the introduction of the Speck-T Stadium Truck. Available in both brushed and brushless configurations, this compact carpet and pavement racer looks like an amazingly fun radio-controlled machine. Based on the earlier Speck-B and Speck-SCT models, the 2WD Speck-T is more than just a simple […]

I have to give ARRMA (and Losi) credit for continuing to find new and creative ways to use their 1/12-scale Grom platform for new releases. The latest entry in ARRMA's 1/12-scale Grom lineup is the Infraction Grom 3S. Built for speed, this smaller-scale on-road basher sports an aggressive-yet-sleek body design, aerodynamically tuned for speed and […]
It's rig review time...at least a mini-rig review. While I haven't done many upgrades on my gold Redcat Ascent-18 Brushless Scout II, I wanted to share the small updates that I have made (so far). This was the first Brushless Ascent-18 Scout II that I added to my RC garage, and I recently added a […]
The Axial SCX30 lineup has gotten bigger with the addition of the SCX30 Toyota Tacoma TRD Pro. Drawn in by the new body style and the two different configurations for each color option (overland and crawler), I added both of these rigs to my shopping cart and couldn't wait to get them into my RC […]

Well, that didn't take long. The FMS FCX18 II Ford F-100 has only been available for a short time and we're already seeing a modded version of this 1/18-scale R/C pickup from the folks at Fair RC. If you like your radio-controlled trail trucks to have eye-catching personality, you'll want to check out the FCX18 […]
After eyeing Losi's NASCAR RC Car from afar since its 2024 release, I finally found a deal too good to pass up and added this on-road machine to my R/C garage. Join me as I take a closer look at this car and take it out for an evening driveway shakedown. Surprisingly quick and nimble, […]
