The team at FMS has added another branch to their FCX18 family with the introduction of the FCX18 Hummer EV. While many of the models under the FMS banner are replicas of classic off-road vehicles, the FCX18 Hummer EV is a drastic change given that it's not only a modern model, but also a replica […]
It's been far too long since I've written about a new Kyosho Mini-Z release, and what better way to get back into the swing of things than with their latest model, the AWD 1972 Nissan Skyline 2000GT-R. Featuring an incredibly detailed body, the Mini-Z AWD 1972 Nissan Skyline 2000GT-R looks like it rolled right out […]
Fair RC has unveiled its next modded version of the FCX24M, the Trail Titan Mod. If you're a fan of the Land Rover Defender 90, but don't care for the Camel Trophy Livery found on the current FMS FCX24M lineup, this might be a rig worth checking out. The 1/24 Trail Titan Mod RTR features […]
If you're looking for a great way to entertain yourself and others during the dog days of summer, you'll want to check out this offer from Traxxas. With their TRX-4MT Combo Deal, you can buy two TRX-4MT 1/18-scale monster trucks for only $299.99 (saving you $100 in the process). The TRX-4MT is based on the […]
Who's ready for some new hotness? Redcat has announced a new color option for its budget-friendly, incredibly capable Ascent-18. Alongside the original colors of silver, blue, and red, you can now get this tiny truck in an eye-popping hot pink color. No changes have been made under the hood, which is great news for those […]
I don't use the words "game changer" often, but when I do, they typically have some weight behind them. Injora's MBL32 Micro ESC and Purple Viper Brushless Motor Combo appear to be just that; game changers. If you own a Traxxas TRX-4M or Redcat Ascent-18 and want to achieve not only smooth yet powerful low-end […]
I was able to find some time (and decent weather) to get my freshly upgraded TRX-4M Bronco with Traxxas 2-Speed Transmission out for a test drive. While this transmission upgrade doesn't offer a remote-shifting option, it's a nice change of pace to be able to swap between low and high-speed gears whenever the need arises. […]
The FCX24M from FMS is one fun machine. Whether you're a fan of Land Rover, the Camel Trophy vehicle competition, scale realism in radio-controlled models, or all three, this new line of small-scale crawlers certainly has something for (just about) everyone. While the FCX24M Land Rover Camel Trophy Edition lineup is fantastic in stock form, […]
It's time to start shifting gears with the TRX-4M. I'm not sure what my personal record is for ordering an upgrade or R/C item shortly after reading about it, but this might be a new record. Hours after learning about (and writing about) the Traxxas TRX-4M 2-Speed Transmission (which wasn't available for purchase at the […]
There's no doubt that the TRX-4M is one of the most popular small-scale crawlers on the market today, and if you own one, you know that upgrading it is a large part of the fun. With several current upgrade options available, I always get excited when something new hits the scene. Traxxas has announced another […]
