OK, right now this is just a rumor, but I got a phone call that this week at a Losi Race, Gil ‘Pops’ Losi Sr. had mentioned that he was buying Kyosho America! We are doing our best here to confirm or deny this rumor. It it does happen, this is pretty darn big news! Anyone who was [...]
Ok, had a few people send this in. Thanks for the heads up! Looks like Kyosho does not want to be left behind in the new Corr truck craze with this video of their new Kyosho DRT. I don’t have a lot of details, but most people are guessing it’s built on one of their uber 7 something [...]
Now that everyone has recovered from their turkey induced coma, let’s get down to the nitty gritty- Tebo is signed up to the hilt with the K-crew. Ya, ya, I know you heard the news days (weeks?) ago, so it’s no huge surprise. What is a bit surprising is Tebo leaving his electrics at AE, having also signed up to exclusively [...]
Team Novak has just issued a press release about the new Brushless in a Box HV Pro 6.5 conversion kits. The kit comes with the HV 6.5 brushless motor, steel pintion gear, motor heat sink, two battery boxes, ESC cooling fan, motor cooling fan, antenna mount, hardware kit and instructions.

The biggest news this week turns out to be about one of our sports most elite racers, Jared Tebo. When you think of the biggest drivers in our sport right now, it typically boils down to this- if you are a “Losi” guy, you think Drake, if you are an “Associated” guy, you think Tebo. Jared is arguably the best [...]
I know our resident edgy reporter Cubby has been pushing the electric RC scene for a while now, and it looks like Pro-Line Racing is starting to help with his efforts to help bring electric back to the front. This new body is designed to keep those high voltage brushed or brushless RC Kyosho Lazer ZX-5 [...]
Traxxas Much like the paranoid survivalists that emptied out every supermarket in the country of 50 lbs bags of rice, rc’ers are now beginning to stockpile nitro fuel. Rumors have been floating for months about no more 30% being produced and prices doubling by Christmas. The best part is, ask 10 guys that work in the rc fuel industry, and you’ll [...]
Another week, another Cub Report- here’s all you really need to know about what went down in the rc universe last week. It’s been years since the revolutionary Traxxas T-Maxx came out. Since then, most companies have jumped on the bandwagon and produced their versions of the platform. The HPI Savage was the first, and probably toughest competitor in the category. [...]
Shall I jump right into the good stuff here? Of course! Biggest disappointment of the week? Easily has to go to Kyosho after finding out that their “AKA Brand- World Class Products by World Champions” isn’t going to be some esoteric line-up of cars. Instead, AKA’s first release is 8th scale dirt tires. Yes, 8th scale dirt is the single hottest [...]
Welcome to month two in 08′, and like always, the rc world did not fail to deliver the goods. The most news came out of the Nuremberg Toy Fair. When it comes to terms of “cool”, Nuremberg often bests the American shows when it comes to new products. But first, I must address a huge beef I have with the management [...]
