We are down to the final four! This is a VERY important round because it’s going to crown a winner for the basher side and a winner for the crawler side. It’s been very exciting watching things unfold. The leads in round three jumped back and forth several times leaving us on the edge of our seats to see who [...]
We are down to eight vehicles. Four on the basher side, and four on the crawler side. The last round proved pretty interesting as a few upsets broke more than a few of the Big Squid RC crew brackets. There are several vehicles in the top 8 nobody expected to get this far. Again, every year we are surprised by [...]
Welcome to Round 2 of the March Bash-ness 2018 brackets! We warned you that we had planned a twist, and as you can see it’s a good one! We took all the winners from the sweet 16 bracket in round one, and put them on the left side. On the right side, we have added 8 scale/crawler vehicles! We had a [...]
Welcome to the 2018 March Bash-ness Sweet 16! As always, we’d like to thank all of our readers around the world for posting to social media, sending in emails, leaving comments on what vehicles you think need to be in the bracket. As we have hinted to recently, there is going to be a little twist this year. What’s the [...]
We know you guys are dying to start getting those votes in! Wanted to give you a heads up on the time frames. The brackets and voting will start tomorrow, but because we are who we are, we have added a new twist! You’ll need to come back and see what that is, but we think a lot of people [...]
Time to unbox the Traxxas TRX-4 Chassis Kit. Because we are still recovering from the flood here at the office (it’s still a mess) Wrench stepped up and shot the video over at his place. We are really looking forward to building the kit, and will let everyone know how it goes. We aren’t expecting any gotcha’s, but you [...]
Well, look what we have here – a pair of the just announced RC4WD 1/18 Gelande II RTR Crawlers! We have the gunmetal colored Black Rock edition as well as the baby-blue D90 version. We are about to get busy on our full review, but we wanted to first show you what it looks like when you crack the box on [...]
Here it is folks, the new Traxxas E-Revo 2.0 has landed! Always considered one of the most epic bash machines ever, the new version is beefed up from nose to tail. OK, so our unboxing of the E-Revo 2.0 has a story behind it. A few days ago Brian shot an entire unboxing video to go up on our Youtube channel. [...]
Announced by Team Redcat just over a month ago was the TR-SC10E. As this truck is a Team Redcat release, that means it was designed to take on some serious bashing. Once we received our test unit, we took a bunch of pictures while we pulled it out of the box. As you can see by the unboxing pictures, the Redcat [...]
We have been posting blurbs about the new E-Revo for a week or so now, but the official news and specs are finally available. The E-Revo became a dominant force in the rc monster truck realm, and the latest version is looking like it may continue that streak. We were originally calling it the Traxxas E-Revo 2.0 but it looks [...]
Just putting the finishing touches on our review of the Cross RC Demon SG4, so we thought you may like to see some of the photos we took during the build process. It wasn’t a quick build as it is a full kit, but it went pretty smooth for the most part. Here is an excerpt from the review talking [...]
We got our hands on the Cross RC Demon SG4 scale crawler that has been blowing up the rc internet lately. This truck really looks good, and our first impressions of the kit are very positive. We are looking forward to getting this thing built! We have the Demon SG4C edition of the truck that has a few more aluminum [...]
Recently we received one of Maverick’s new Strada DT desert trucks for review. Much like the Strada RX that we unboxed a few days ago, the DT version comes as a ready to run with a powerful brushless power system. The Strada DT was designed to look like a hardcore off-road rig, in person, it certainly looks the part. While we [...]
Vaterra has been big on scale realism since the brand was first introduced at the Nuremburg Toy Fair in 2013. Their latest offering, the 1968 Ford F-100 Ascender, continues in that tradition. With loads of scale detailing and arguably the most capable chassis on the market, the F-100 is sure to become a force in the scale crawling world. We have [...]
Remember Maverick RC? We sure do, they are HPI Racing’s basher line-up in Europe. The Maverick line-up is still new to folks here in the states, but HPI hopes to change all that in 2018. Expect to see HPI, and their various North American distributors, making a big push on the Maverick line-up in the coming year. Recently we received one [...]
