You’ll probably be able to tell in the video, but we are pretty excited about the Traxxas MAXX arriving at the office. We are big fans of the X-MAXX, and we can’t wait to bash it’s smaller offspring. Out of the box, everything impresses. It was funny to see Jeremy upset about the cool way the body mounts on the [...]
Want to watch us unbox the new TRAXXAS TRX-6 Mercedes-Benz 6×6? Want to celebrate Brian’s Birthday? We do both in one great video! Yep, we are up to our usual hi-jinx and had a blast doing the unboxing. The truck is awesome, and you can tell we were dying to get out there and drive the thing! Enjoy the unboxing, and [...]
Recently we got our hands on the new CEN Racing Solid Axle Monster Trucks We got a red HL150 and bright orange Ford B50, and while Doug did a proper photo unboxing, Jeremy and I decided we need to test our ‘Time To Bash’ category for the reviews. The rules were simple, we had to grab the box, unbox it, put [...]
We got our hands on the new Outlaw Rampage PRO from Kyosho, and we are excited! The Outlaw Rampage PRO is a 2wd off-road truck that ships in ARR form. (Almost Ready to Run). It’s about 70% done, and you’ll need to add your own electronics. We really like the options to change things up like the grill and spare tire [...]
A huge Pro-Line Racing box showed up at the office door, so it’s time to unbox whatever is inside! I had a good idea of what might be in the box as Pro-Line has been in the news lately with a lot of cool new products, but didn’t know exactly what would be inside. There were some good surprises, and [...]
We got our hands on the new Traxxas TRX-4 TRAXX RTR, and wow! Jeremy was blown away by some of the scale body detail, from the accessories to the amazing tail lights. There is a ton of awesome molded plastic on this thing! If you were thinking about picking up a set of TRAXX, might as well get the TRX-4 [...]
Have you seen the latest on-road car from Kysosho? If not, it is a Fazer Mk2 1970 Dodge Charger painted in Hemi Orange. The Charger simply looks incredible when held “in-hand”. The body has loads of detailing that includes numerous plastic accent pieces (like the driver’s side mirror), and it also sports a two piece design to allow for heavy [...]
Available right now from Kyosho is a new Cortez Silver edition of their 1970 Chevelle SS 454 LS6 Fazer Mk2. The 454 SS has a nicely scaled body that sits on Kyosho’s proven Fazer Mk2 chassis. The wheel and tire combo is a perfect match for the beastly Chevelle, as are the scale details like side mirrors, light buckets, highly [...]
To say that we have REALLY been wanting to get our hands on the new Cross RC FR4 Demon RTR would be an understatement. First impressions out of the box, wow.. that suspension! Someone will probably call me out on this, but this may be the softest RTR suspension we have ever felt out of the box. It’s silky [...]
Have you been thinking about picking up the new Axial Racing UMG10 but want to see what comes in the box before you get into it? It is a true kit, you will need to build the entire truck, supply the electronics, batteries, radio, etc. We did our best to show what comes in the box in the video without [...]
A lot of people have been looking forward to the ARRMA Kraton 4S from Horizon Hobby since it’s big brother has a serious reputation. Everyone wants to know if it’s still a insane bash vehicle, just a bit smaller. Well, we are just about done with the review, lets start off with the unboxing photo’s and video for your viewing [...]
We have been wanting to get our hands on the 1/5 Scale Redcat Racing Clawback truck for a while now, and that time has finally come. While I’m sure many of you would say we are nuts, there are a few of us at the Big Squid RC HQ that believe large scale crawling/trailing is going to start growing and [...]
What the heck is this? We recently got a box in the mail from Traxxas, and the only heads up was we got a tracking number a few days before. We had no idea what was coming, or what was in the box. We shut off comments on this post to keep it spoiler free for those who want [...]
Yep, we got our hands on the new Losi Ford Raptor Baja Rey from Horizon Hobby! That means it’s time to open it up and see what’s in the box. A bunch of us in the office were excited to see this thing in person, and wow, it does not disappoint! We really like the blue highlights and those molded [...]
Axial Racing and Horizon Hobby was kind enough to hook us up with the new Axial Wraith 1.9″ RTR, and in person it’s a real stunner. Those smaller tires give it a much more scale look, at least for what’s hot right now, and the black version looks great. Opening up that hood to reveal the V8 molded receiver case [...]
