Project Gettin’ Dressed for AxialFest was an interesting one. The one part I thought we would have issues with on the Axial SCX10iii was a great fit with no hassles at all. I am talking about the RC4WD Roof rack, which is made for the first Gen SCX10 Jeep. If you are thinking about picking up the Metal Roof Rack [...]
Over the last month or so we have been doing a lot of testing with our Axial Racing SCX10 III. The kit performs well if assembled correctly. Do not try to blame Axial because you stripped a screw out or forgot a bearing in the transmission, that’s called builder error. I will admit, I have had my fair share of [...]
Last weekend I had time to mount the Pitbull RC Braven Bloodaxe 1.55 tires on the RC4WD 4Runner. When chosen to drive 1.55 rigs you must remember its night and day in comparison to the standard 1.9 rigs. What a 1.9 rig can maneuver over with ease, a 1.55 rig will have to work harder at the same obstacle given [...]
Normally Memorial Day weekend I hold the Juicebox Off-Road Park Summer opener. And like all the other events I had to push it back to, well I have no idea. On a positive note the postponement has freed up my time to start the Tamiya King Hauler we received from Remote Control Hobbies – Orlando, FL. When I opened the King [...]
With the help of a good neighbor I was able to get all 7 yards of dirt I had delivered for Juicebox Off-Road Park moved from my driveway to the back yard. The original plan was to move it all one-yard cart at a time. I moved two carts full, and just that little bit was a nightmare. The dirt [...]
Now we’re talking, RC4WD has just anounced two updated versions of the Gelande II. The Gelande G2 platform is a great one to play around with, the Farm Truck has a G2 LWB chassis and despite the looks of the rig it performs well. The new Gelande II has had more of a cosmetic makeover with two new licensed Range Rover [...]
What’s going on all you cool scale and scalers, ok that doesn’t really translate as well as I thought it would, but I am willing to bet you can guess what I have been watching on Netflix. I went deeper down the Tiger King Hole and have started watching his YouTube channel that has days and days of entertainment, if [...]
When it comes to painting a lexan body it can be hit or miss for me. The Proline Dodge Ramcharger was the last lexan body I painted; overall I think it tuned out good for a few reasons. First off, the main body is only one color, doing one solid color is a lot easier then doing a two tone. [...]
Hello everybody, over the last week in between test runs of the new Axial SCX10iii I was pulling out some of my rigs that haven’t been ran in while. One was the Axial Can-Am Yeti Jr., last summer the ESC took a dump after the Can-Am was submerged for a long period of time. Not really wanting to spend a [...]
This next Fan Spotlight comes from a ScalerFab Team driver Ant Petrone. Ant is a very talented builder and has a love for Fords. It’s not every day I get to see the Fan Spotlights in person, so Ant and I took advantage of the opportunity and took his work truck out on the trials of USTE2020 for a private [...]
Over the last week the regular rat race of life has slowed down, unlike most people who are having trouble filling there new found free time, us in the RC hobby have been doing this for years and can handle any time tossed our way. With everything going on people more then ever need a distraction right now. So, I [...]
Holy Axial Batman! Axial has anounced the new SCX10 III Jeep JLU Wrangler w/Portals and by the looks of it they have put some thought into the 3rd gen SCX10. Now, if you happened to catch the last episode of RC Conspiracies the Axial SCX10 III came up as one of the topics. I stand by what I said then, [...]
Last weekend I had a chance to get out and do some crawling with the local club Chi-Town RC Crawlers. It was a much-needed break from sitting in front of my laptop working on videos. Knowing that I didn’t have much time to crawl I only charged one battery, a Max Amps 2s 4750 – Graphene lipo shorty pack, one [...]
When you hear people say “This will go down in history” have you ever wondered how do they know? When George Washington cut down a tree do you think he knew it would go down in history? How about when Jimmy Hendrix played the Star-Spangled Banner? After attending The Ultimate Scale Truck Expo 2020 I can say, with confidence, that [...]
What’s going on everyone, since I have returned from The Ultimate Scale Truck Expo I have been going through hours of photos and video. This year’s event was insane not only on the trails but with a record-breaking attendance on day one! So other then rushing a story out we made a little preview video of the event along with [...]
