Element RC has joined the basic rig or “sport” model game. Element is the underdog in the RC world, and time and time again they have risen to the top. So will the new Sendero Sport Edition hold up to the Element RC name? Or will it tumble down the scale cliff and explode like a chair in the Simpsons? [...]
What better way to get pumped up for the weekend than a couple Big Squid RC videos. We got our hands on the new Traxxas TRX4M 1/18 Land Rover Defender and have been driving it allover the Big Squid RC Kentucky HQ. While we are still working on the review, we have the unboxing and running videos for you to [...]
What is popping Squid Nation! It seems like there was an event going on everywhere in the USA last week, Pro-line by the fire, Rocktober, and Georgia Rock Zombies Haul N Crawl just to name a few. While I would love to be at every event, sometimes you need a break from the road. Lucky for me, our good friend [...]
What’s going on Scalin Squids! RC4WD has released a new 1/10 Advanced Scale Winch Controller and Receiver. Now when it comes to electronics its hit or miss for me, I have installed with no issues, and I have also installed wrong and that’s not a good or cheap time. In the past the RC4WD winch setups could be confusing while [...]
What is going on Scalin’ Squids! It has been busy around the BSRC Kentucky HQ, with multiple builds going on and setting up the new off-road park A.K.A Juicebox Holler, things are running smooth. The new trail layout has been working out well, walking paths are big enough for the mower too blow off the trails and obstacles are laid [...]
We have lift off Squid Nation! The Ecto 1 from Scale Rat is in the shop and starting to get the parts mocked up. Having to wait this long was not ideal, with moving states I knew I couldn’t have given the Scale Rat Ecto 1 the proper treatment until I was in the new shop.There were a few ways [...]

First up is the RC4WD Chevy Long bed build. Now not having done this before it should be a good time, I have everything I need from [...]
What’s going on everyone; the Scale shop has been running strong ever since we returned from Axialfest Badlands. With only two weeks left in the shop before the final move to Kentucky the scale crew has only been taking on small projects. Pitbull RC sent over some new 1.9 Rock Beast XL’s and a set of 1.9 Raceline combat wheels [...]
The 1:24 scale world is here to stay and has been making a big footprint for such a small scale. Our good friend CCxRC has joined in on the 1:24 scale boom by releasing a handful of CCxRC branded parts. From tool kits to a servo, CCxRC is evolving from a content creator to having his own parts. We here [...]
Axialfest Badlands 2022 was a polar opposite from 2021. 2021 was a mud fest filled with rain, when this year’s Axialfest Badlands was dry and hot. And that’s just the weather, this year’s event had more venders, along with one of the biggest night runs I have ever seen. The dry conditions made for fantastic crawling in the quarry with [...]
Hello, every it has been a while, so let’s have some shop talk! Just as I anticipated the Summer has already been packed full of events, builds, and lets just throw a move across three states while we are at it. It has been about 3 months since I moved to the temporary house. Not having JuiceBox Off-Road Park to [...]
The RC4WD Trailfinder 2 LWB kit with the 1980 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ55 Lexan body has had some mixed reviews. RC4WD is known for scale hard bodies, so naturally people were taken back when they found out that the new FJ55 body was lexan. We were just as surprised when the rig arrived at the Big Squid RC office but [...]
