The Axial Racing SCX10 III Early Ford Bronco was my favorite releases from Axial last year. For a RTR rig it has a ton of scale features including, straight axels instead of the portals, front and rear lights, an interior that has depth to it, and a scale motor. Ever since Axial came out with the SCX10 III I have [...]

Welcome to Juiceburg, the tiny world for the smaller scale rigs now has its name! the lay out started in my basement about two years ago. Back then it was only the two large mountains, unpainted and was used for quick testing of 1:10 rigs. The surge of 1:24 and 1:18 scale we have been receiving made me rethink about [...]
My newfound love for the 1:18 scale, thanks to FMS Models, has exploded into the workshop. Over the last few months, I have been working on the tiny town for the 1:18 and 1:24 scale rigs to drive on. Even though the tiny town still does not have an official name, there has been a lot of progress made in [...]

It has taken a me some time to get into the smaller scale stuff. After driving the rigs from FMS Model and ROC HOBBY, my love for the smaller scale has [...]
I have been waiting along time for this Everybody’s Scalin’ post. Let me refresh your memory really quick, a while a go we got the Super Scale 2020 Suspension kit to install on our Traxxas TRX4. It seemed every time I would make some progress on the build, something would come up and it would have to be put on [...]
Hello everyone and sorry for the absence, with so much going on at Big Squid RC, I haven’t had the time to get much writing done, until now. In a way the worlds have aligned, I am now able to give the Squid my full attention. That means more videos, more articles, and faster turn around time on builds and [...]
