I’ve always been one to get lost in YouTube wormholes, especially when it comes to classic monster truck footage. I recently stumbled upon a video posted by the BIGFOOT 4×4 team that helps back up a point that I’ve been trying to drive home in this space for years- the absolute importance of sway bars on your r/c monster truck. The [...]
Hello everyone. Last weekend we were at The Ultimate Scale Truck Expo in Williston Florida and did we have a blast! While I am still going through all the footage along with removing mud from my ears, we have part one of our USTE 2021 trip done and some photos for you to check out. Thank you so much to [...]
If you are into to solid axle r/c monster trucks, what can really take the fun up a notch is having a good set of crushed cars to run over. My friend Christopher Davis has taken this to the extreme, and I just HAD to show off his work to you.He started off with various vintage style plastic cars that [...]
Those sneaky sneaks at JConcepts love to pepper upcoming product releases in the background of their YouTube videos, and they’ve done it again in a video they just posted. The pic at the top of this article is a screen grab. Knobby tires on the front, heavily shaved v-treads on the back. If you aren’t a hardcore 1:1 monster truck fan, these [...]
What is going on everybody? Over the weekend Team Scalin’ Squids made the final push for The Ultimate Scale Truck Expo. Its has been a fun year filled with lots of build nights, sleep deprivation, hours, and hours of conversations, and designing and receiving parts for all the builds this year. To finish it off we made a little video [...]
Hey gang, I’m here this week to show-off some brand new Pro-Line Demolishers, the Losi LMT-specific race tire release that’s about to start hitting your local hobby shops. I will be doing a proper review of the tires, but it’s going to have to wait a minute due to single degree temperatures and the constant snow which we’ve been receiving here [...]
The other day I was doing some surfing on the net and stumbled across a cool company that makes scale shops, Skrzypek Rc Scale Garage. Not only can you get some wicked backdrops for a shop, but you can also get some handmade scale furniture. What is cool is that it is not just one shop print, you can add [...]
Hey guys, big apologies for missing Monster Truck Madness last week. One of only a few times I’ve ever done that. Been crazy round these parts. I’ve had some e-mails I’ve been hanging onto, some quite lengthy, so this week we are going to have mega-mailbag. Hi Doug, Quick question. The only thing holding me off from buying an LMT are the [...]
What is going on Everybody, hope the week has treated you well and the Rc Gods have kept your rigs in good shape. For me, this week has been a very productive one with a lot of rigs for The Ultimate Scale Truck Expo near completion. 2020 was a nightmare for me as well as it was for most of the [...]
What is going on everyone hope you all had a great week and are getting ready to do some Scalin’ this weekend. For me I have been fighting a nasty cold my little boy decided to bring home with him from daycare. And just to clarify it is a cold and not the Rona, but it has still kicked my [...]
Hey all, it’s ya boy Doug, coming at you hot and heavy with another dose of LMT talk. After a lot of discussion, my monster truck club Trigger King R/C has come up with a set of rules for a Losi LMT Spec Class. We will be running it all summer long. The rules we’ve come up with are as follows: The [...]
Our road to the Ultimate Scale truck Expo has grown every year since we have been attending. USTE 2021 will be our 3rd year at the event and we plan on making it our best one yet! Just like everyone else we have a serious case of Event fever and can not wait to get out and play. The first [...]
The Losi LMT is here. Many of you already have one or have one on the way. With the truck finally out in the wild, I can now discuss something that I’ve been dying to talk about. Where does the Losi LMT fit in to the r/c monster truck racing eco-system? Speaking as someone who is a race director for a [...]
Hello and welcome to this week’s Everybody’s Scalin’. It has been super busy in the scale shop with multiple projects going on. With that being said, I think its time for a little shop talk.First up is the Gmade Buffalo, this build was a lot of fun and everything went together smooth. I am immensely proud of how well the [...]
Happy Losi LMT release week, folks! That’s right, this week the LMT is shipping to hobby shops or directly to you if you pre-ordered! I know the wait was hard for many, especially given that it didn’t ship in time for Christmas, but hey- what a way to start off the new year, right?! The word on the street is that [...]
