Hello, I got a quick question. Can the Evader DT take LiPo batteries stock? If so, would I need to install a LVC? Thank you -Jordan Cubby– What’s up Jordan? Is it just me or do we get this question a lot? Well… if it’s getting asked this much I better man up and answer it. Can the Evader DT (same goes for [...]

Hey Cubby, So what does the BSRC crew have planned for this summer? New vehicles to buy? Exotic vacations anywhere? New tracks or bash spots to visit? As for me, I’ve decided to try something different and out of my comfort zone…..aircraft (gasp!)….specifically helicopters. There seems to be more aircraft rc clubs (airfields included) than car/truck clubs in my area. So that [...]
Dear Cub Reporter Why do I never see any Tamiya product on Bigsquid? Like your site but would like to see more Tamiya on it. Shaun H. Asheville, North Carolina Cubby– Hey what’s up Shaun? So… why don’t we have more Tamiya on our site? Easy- they have zero working relationship with us. We rarely get press releases from them, nor do they send [...]
OK,I’ve been checking your site for over a year now with relative ease until the last few months. My question is WHAT THE F*&K IS WRONG WITH YOUR F&*^*ING WEBSITE?!?!?!?!?!?!?! I’m not exaggerating when I say that 70% of the time it doesn’t load up. Then on other occasions, it’s slower than most of Tamiyas products that don’t cost [...]

Faster is much more about the driver than the equipment in rc racing.” (quoted from this weeks Cub Report) Whys it need a tuning kit anyways, for all intents and purposes it is a Losi [...]

Hey Cubby I’m a big fan, my week hasn’t offically started until I’ve read the Cub Report every Monday. I was recently told RPM dual stage pistions are the best modification for my shocks that I can make. I drive an SC10. What are they, and what will they do for me? Trevor J. Peoria IL Cubby– What’s up Trevor? With you [...]

Photo of the Week:by Michael Appleman Have you ever looked around the internets and said to yourself “man… for all this great technology and freedom of communication, people sure use it for some stupid crap.” I had a moment like that while looking for cool links for this post. It occurred at one of the large forums and involved a stupid [...]
