The Axial SCX24 2021 Ford Bronco release has the scale R/C community buzzing. The latest in Axial's small-scale crawler lineup, this model marks the first "hardbody" release from the adventure R/C brand. Rather than a polycarbonate body, this 1/24-scale crawler is rocking an ABS plastic body that boasts beautiful details and more body accessories than […]
Axial's latest SCX24 release takes the style and off-road ruggedness of the 1:1 Jeep Gladiator and shrinks it down to the small, yet capable, size of 1/24-scale. The SCX24 Jeep JT Gladiator features an array of visual scale details, a long wheelbase (over 6"), and the same trail-ready performance found in the rest of the […]
RC4WD's latest trail explorer has some stiff competition. Wading into an already crowded 1/24-scale crawler market, the 1/24 Trail Finder 2 brings a small-scale hard-bodied model to the masses. Featuring a durable design with plenty of scale features, this model looks like an appealing option for those who want to get into or further expand […]
When you haven't seen a certain R/C model in a while, you might need a reminder on how it performs. Thankfully, the folks at Carisma love to capture their vehicles in action, and have put together an excellent action sequence of the recently-relaunched GT24TR truggy. It's been a while since I've wheeled my two GT24-series […]
The Carisma Scale Adventure MSA-1E ranks among my favorites when it comes to 1/24-scale R/C crawlers. While it may not be the juggernaut that is the Axial SCX24, it can still hold its own and provide plenty of indoor and outdoor entertainment. My MSA-1E Ford F-150 has been its own fair share of adventures, from […]
With the addition of the RGT Adventurer V2 to my lineup of small-scale R/C crawlers, I had to see how it stacked up against the competition. So far, my two favorite models in this size category are the Axial SCX24 1967 Chevrolet C10 and the Carisma Scale Adventure MSA-1E 1976 Ford F-150. All three vehicles […]
My favorite go-to rig (at the moment) is Carisma's MSA-1E Coyote Pup. I'm sold on its performance, scale detail, and overall fun factor. To help illustrate how this little rig performs, I set up a short (very short) crawling course made up of rain gutter insert "foam" and turned this puppy loose. While the performance […]
The LaTrax Prerunner 4x4 truck has received a splash of color for 2018. This recently redesigned 1/18-scale vehicle now features a "color splash" body design, similar to what Traxxas has been applying to a number of their other models. This new color option is a real eye-catcher and stands out among the standard solid red and […]
My first taste of FPV left me thirsty for more. Thankfully, the Dromida FPV Rally Car arrived on my doorstep in time for some pre-snow fun. Taking a trip to a local park, I turned loose with this 1/18-scale rally car. With the Tactic RM2 FPV monitor set up and DVR feature engaged, I put […]
One of the lingering questions you get after buying a new R/C vehicle is wondering how hard you can push the vehicle...before it breaks. While no vehicle is bulletproof, there are some brands which have made a name for themselves from a durability standpoint. While Traxxas, LaTrax, ECX, and even Redcat Racing have showcased the […]
