This build series is sponsored by RCMart.com. We’re here. The home stretch. The final lap. The last mile. However you want to phrase it, the Orlandoo Hunter OH32A03 build is coming to an end. Throughout the entire process, I’ve been challenged by this build but it’s also been a fun process. The last segment of […]
This build series is sponsored by RCMart.com. “I love it when a plan comes together.” Or should I say, I love it when a build comes together? Either way, my Orlandoo Hunter OH32A03 project is progressing nicely. With the axles, chassis, and suspension links all assembled, it’s time to finish up the few remaining chassis […]

With the axles and suspension links assembled on our Orlandoo Hunter OH32A03 kit, it’s now time to build the heart and soul of this small-scale R/C crawler; the transmission and chassis. The OH32A03 transmission is positioned […]

Part One: Bags A & B This build series is sponsored by RCMart.com. My first experience with a 1/32-scale kit arrived in the form of the Orlandoo Hunter OH32A03 kit, specifically bag “A”. This bag contained all of the parts and pieces for assembling the axles and axle housings. I’ve done this type of assembly […]

When it comes to small-scale R/C models, you don’t have to ask me twice if I’m interested in taking a closer look at them.

Overjoyed. That’s how I would describe my feelings during the release of Axial’s original Yeti Jr. Rock Racer (and Yeti Jr. SCORE Trophy Truck). It’s hard to believe that those two models were released over two years ago and in that time...both have been discontinued. After Axial lowered the curtain on their two 1/18-scale models, […]
The emergence of the Axial Yeti Jr. Can-Am Maverick X3 has brought along a series of aluminum and steel hop-up parts from Axial. While there are already a number of aftermarket parts for this model (and its predecessor), it's nice to see Axial showing some love to their small-scale off-road machine. While most of these parts […]
Axial's latest small-scale model builds on their Yeti Jr. platform and tops it off with a scale Can-Am Maverick X3 UTV body. Featuring updated electronics (transmitter, servo, motor), this small-scale side-by-side should provide plenty of performance and visual pop. To see how this little buggy performs, check out this action video from the Axial crew. […]
Feeling the urge to build an indoor R/C racer? Carisma has released their GT24B buggy and GT24R rally car as unassembled kits.
