Before getting started this week, we want to wish Corey from RPP Hobby / Gear Head RC a very speedy recovery from a recent accident. He and his crew are an integral part of the global scaling community, whether it’s selling their latest trick wheel or dishing out advice to a clueless newbie scaler on an internet forum. From all of us here at BigSquidRC, [...]
All you extreme bashers out there should be delighted to see that RPM is now producing Front A-Arms for the Axial Yeti XL. Like every RPM product, the front a-arms were designed for incredible durability while improving performance by eliminating slop. The RPM arms also offer more clearance at the bellcrank to eliminate center link damage when the suspension bottoms [...]
The folks over at Knight Customs have announced a bunch of new parts to upgrade your Axial Deadbolt with. First up is a choice of two different front grills.

Scaling is all about the details. The best trucks to look at are the ones that have the tiny scale details that can easily be missed 5 feet away, but look incredible up close. For you guys looking to add more scale realism to your Axial SCX10 Jeep Wrangler, the folks at RC4WD have just announced a new set of [...]
As I was grinding my freshly built Axial Dingo on the rock crawling course at my LHS last weekend, a sobering reality washed over me – I suck at comps. Even more startling was the realization that I really didn’t care. I’m a competitive guy by nature, so that sort of struck me. It wasn’t always this way. I used to [...]

The kit comes with everything needed to make the conversion (minus a servo that you will need to supply) and comes with an even [...]
For the longest time now I’ve been planning on building a super scaled out, high performance 1.9 trail rig. It’s just that other responsibilities (aka different r/c’s) have always led to this project being stuck perpetually “on the drawing board”. No more! A massive amount of stuff has been ordered and as you can see in above pic, it’s time to [...]

JConcepts has joined forces with New Red Hobbies to put on their Bash 4.0. This bash is unique that it combines a bunch of different types of rc into one huge event. [...]

Before we get started, you can click here for Part One if you missed it. Building the trucks? Easy. Building the mud pit? PITA. This is the numero uno thing I’ve learned about racing r/c mudders. And of course the day we picked to build the track and run these vehicles just so happened to be 95 degrees with high humidity [...]

I’ve always been one to champion the Axial SCX10 for its versatility. The truck can be counted on to do a bunch of stuff with minimal work. For a personal example of this, I recently wrote a couple articles showcasing how easy it is to turn it into a pulling truck. With that in mind, a product recently hit the marketplace that [...]
