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 [...]
Beat The Creek is held in the charming southern town of Maysville, Kentucky. The town is filled with beautiful landscapes, farmland, and of course the property of Joe and Sue Hauke. Joe and his family open up their private property to host Beat The Creek. If that doesn’t say Southern Hospitality, then I don’t know what will. I can deal [...]
Happy day in the Big Squid Shop! We recently received the ERNST Ultimate Hobby Stand and have some time to check it out to see what it has to offer. As long as I have been in the hobby, I have only recently started utilizing the help of pit mats and pit stands so when the Ultimate Hobby Stand from [...]
Mark your calendars for May 14th-15th. Big Squid RC will be invading Maysville Kentucky for the 7th annual Beat The Creek! For a few years now I have been trying to get to this event. As life would have it, something would come up and make it so I couldn’t attend. Not this year, along with myself the Scalin’ Squids [...]
From the Majestic shop of ScalerFab comes a beautiful set of Retro front and rear bumpers for the Axial Racing SCX10 iii Bronco. Our Bronco has not had an easy life since we received it. But after all the abuse it has taken, the rig is holding up strong with only cosmetic damage. Now that the little Squid has basically [...]
Frixion RC has popped up out of thin air it seems, carrying an impressive catalog of scale and performance hop ups. We got our hands on a set of 1” Braven Ironside Scale tires with the Alien Kompound from Frixion RC. The tires look great, so we pulled in our FMS Model Toyota Land Cruiser into the scale shop and [...]
Hello everyone, and welcome to this week’s Everybody’s Scalin’. With only a week until the Ultimate Scale Truck Expo we have been wrapping up our builds and getting ready to hit the road. While I was weathering the bed for Farm Truck 2, I looked over at the FMS Models Chevy K10 and figured it could use some aging. Now [...]
The Element Knightrunner is back on the scale shop loaded down with some upgrades from BowHouse RC. So far, our Knight runner has had the Knight Custom’s 3D printed interior and front wheel wells. Adding those parts make the Knightrunner body pop on a on the scale chart. Now that we have the look we want, it’s time for some [...]
