While it's the second of two 1/24-scale brushless releases from FMS, that "second place" designation doesn't make the FCX24 "Black Edition" Chevrolet K5 Blazer Brushless RTR isn't any less impactful. Draped in black, this brushless rig looks amazing and should perform just as well, thanks to its smooth brushless powerplant and two-speed transmission. Although this […]
Brushless power is steadily taking over the small-scale crawler scene and I'm here for it. One of the latest brushless-powered crawlers on the market is the FMS FCX24 Power Wagon Brushless RTR. Not only does this classic 1/24-scale model get a brushless powerplant update, but it also receives a fresh, new look and updated chassis […]
The FMS FCX18 Toyota Land Cruiser 80 Brushless RTR might be a "best of both worlds" rig. Based on the solid FCX18 LC80, the added power and performance benefits of a brushless motor should take this machine to the next level. To get an idea for how this 1/18-scale trail truck performs, check out some […]
Losi is going all-in with its support of small-scale go-fast machines. Following in the tire tracks of the Micro-B Buggy is the new Micro-T Stadium Truck. This two-wheel drive race truck features a brushed motor, an aluminum chassis, oil-filled shocks, and a compact design, making it a perfect companion for indoor and outdoor R/C action. […]
If you ask me, retro-styled R/C machines will never go out of style. Carisma's GT24ST features the classic looks of a 1980s stadium truck blended with the power and performance of a modern, small-scale R/C machine. From the boxy front snout to the large rear spoiler, this tiny truck looks great in studio shots, but […]
While I do love a showroom-clean R/C machine, there are times when a vehicle calls for a weathered, trail-worn aesthetic. After taking an array of AK washes and treatments to my FMS FCX24M Land Rover Discovery, I thought it needed a real-world drive to truly show off its faux funk. Watch my overview of the […]
Redcat's Ascent-18 Scout II is one fun machine. Right out of the box, you can take this tiny truck out on the trail or putter around your living room, and you're sure to have a blast. It's so much fun, in fact, that I decided to buy a second Ascent-18 Scout II after playing around […]
Axial's SCX24 refresh wave rolls on, with the SCX24 Ford Bronco being the latest model to receive an assortment of performance and appearance updates. Now featuring oil-filled shocks, Spektrum electronics, and three new color options (not to mention a few subtle visual enhancements), the refreshed SCX24 Bronco is ready to bring the fun to your […]
FMS has taken the wraps off of its latest 1/24-scale model, the go-fast-focused FSC24 Chaser Short Course Truck. Featuring a two-speed transmission, full ball bearings, a clipless body mounting system, and more, this looks like a fun little truck to blast around your basement or backyard. If you're curious to see how this truck performs […]
If you're looking for a fun way to have an R/C adventure, the FMS FCX24M is one rig that always seems up for the challenge. I've enjoyed driving models from this lineup both indoors and outdoors, and while each holds a unique set of challenges, there are some aspects of the great outdoors that you […]
