Most small-scale R/C vehicles provide an excellent platform for FPV. With their compact size and relatively capable performance, you can create an indoor or outdoor explorer that can give you a new perspective on your surroundings (and your hobby). ECX has jumped into the world of FPV with their Barrage UV FPV, a 1/24-scale radio-controlled […]
ECX's small-scale lineup is expanding, thanks in part to the new Barrage 1/24 UV Scaler Crawler. Based on the original Barrage 1/24, this new offering sports a utility vehicle-style body, scale accessories in a compact, take-anywhere package. A classic ladder-frame chassis sits underneath the Barrage UV's body and is powered by an ultra-small brushed motor. […]
Things have been rather quiet on the small-scale front in 2018...until now. ECX has introduced the Micro Ruckus, a 1/28-scale monster truck that features a retro body design, huge (relatively speaking) tires, and a two-in-one charger/transmitter combo that's sure to become a hit with R/C enthusiasts. The Micro Ruckus chassis design appears to take a […]
This might be one of the busier stretches of news (in recent memory) when it comes to small-scale R/C vehicles. We've seen ECX refresh their 1/36 KickFlip and BeatBox, as well as roll out a 1/14 radio-controlled motorcycle (Outburst), LaTrax announced a new body option for their 1/18 SST stadium trucks, and now Losi is […]

The Outburst 1/14-scale R/C Motorcycle is an affordable, fun, vehicle that you can take (and drive) just about anywhere. Following in the footsteps of the KickFlip and BeatBox, the Outburst […]
Proving that size is no factor in the amount of fun you can have with an R/C vehicle, ECX has updated their BeatBox and KickFlip 1/36-scale vehicles with new graphics, and in one case, a new body type. Keeping with it's micro-Monster Truck body style, the BeatBox has received a new coat of paint for […]
If the twists and turns of on-road racing and the high-flying jumps that come with off-road bashing have you wanting more from your R/C experience, take some time to slow down and explore the terrain around you. ECX, one of the more budget-friendly radio-controlled vehicle brands, is dipping their toe into the rock crawling scene […]
Along with the two 1/36-scale models that ECX released late last year, the other bigger, small-scale release that I’ve been anticipating has been HPI’s 1/32 Baja Q32 buggy.
