THE Cub Report, 07.23.2012, Version- When E.F. Hutton Talks.…
Hello fellow rc’ers, welcome to another edition of THE Cub Report, the satirical column that is responsible for 87.2% of the chat around rc water-coolers every Monday… First off, VIVA FERRARI! Yes, the church bells rang yet again over the weekend, and yes, Alonso padded his points leads even further! Now on to what really matters, rc… So rc is on the verge [...]
ASK Cub Reporter, 07.19.2012, Version: Dodging Your Question…
Hey there, big fan of the Big Squid you guys do great work. I was curious if there was a plan in the works to do a hopped up review of the Dominus 10SC. Also was interested in the possibility of seeing how the Dominus and Losi Ten-SCTE stack up against each other in a short course shootout, or more [...]
Pro-Line Losi XXX-SCT/SCB Front Inboard Hub Review
THE Pro-Line Losi XXX-SCT/SCB Front Inboard Hub Review So we own a Losi Ten SCTE, several of them actually. We also own several Losi XXX-SCT’s and SCB’s. All good, right? Wrong. You see the SCTE uses different rims than the SCT and SCB. And… on top of that, the SCT/SCB’s use different rims on the front than they do in [...]

THE Cub Report, 07.16.2012, Version- All Hail The King
I am writing this on Sunday evening before the season 5 premier of AMC’s Breaking Bad so I have zero clue if the new season will live up to some extremely high expectations or not. But any which way, I am certainly pumped that there will be 16 more episodes of the wacky adventures of Walter White and his [...]

Hey Guys, Do you think you’ll be able to do a review on the MIP Pro4mance Chassis and Tuning Package for the Losi Ten-SCTE? Thanks, Mike L. Cubby– Hey now, what’s up Mike? I’m not certain if it’s time for me to declare a letter of the month or not, but what the heck, congrats, you have just won a BigSquidRC t-shirt. Shoot me [...]
THE Cub Report- 07.09.2012- Version: Blinded With Avarice
Of course you watched the Silverstone Grand Prix today (Sunday) on Fox. Ferrari very nearly took the win, but late in the race that persistent Aussie Mark Webber was able to snatch away the lead for the big W. Oh well, a solid second on the podium is still good points for Alonso, and he retains the lead in [...]
ASK Cub Reporter, 07.05.2012- Version- The Star Spangled Ban…
If you haven’t already decided on which transmitters to review, I’d like to ask that you include the Traxxas TQi system and possibly the FlySky GT3-B. I own the GT3-B and very interested in the TQi for the telemetry capability. I do race, but pretty much just dirt oval (Slash MDM and Open 2wd) at Maryville Raceway in Illinois when [...]
THE Cub Report, 07.02.2012, Version- Pastrana Got Freak'n Ha…
Yes, the X-Games took place a bit earlier than normal this year, in case you didn’t notice they went off over the weekend. The biggest news? The middle school invasion and the fact that Travis Pastrana got hacked good ole’ “rc style” in the rally cross race. Such a pity, I was looking forward to watching TP and freshly turned [...]

THE Cub Report, 06.25.2012, Version- The Bells Once Again Ri…
Days like today are why I believe in miracles. You see Spanish driver Fernando Alonso didn’t have a shot at winning the Formula 1 Grand Prix in Valencia Spain today. Alonso and his Ferrari had a lackluster performance in qualifying on Saturday, putting them 11th place on the starting grid. Certainly Alonso and his Ferrari would work their way into [...]

Why does Brian constantly crank his Seinheisers up so loud that I am forced to hear what he is listening to? I have no idea, but I’m think’n I need to hack his Pandora account and seriously dial him in with some better channels. Btw… the notorious duo of Walter White and Jesse “Jackson” Pinkman return again to AMC’s Breaking [...]

Pro-Line Traxxas Performance Transmission Review
THE Pro-Line Traxxas Performance Transmission ReviewTraxxas has sold roughly 9.412 zillion 2wd Slash’s/Bandit’s/Rustler’s/Stampede’s, and while they are a bashing staple and are generally solid trucks, they aren’t without fault. For example, how many of you Slash owners out there have blown out more than a few (dozen) spur gears? How many of you Stampede owners have cooked a few motors? [...]
