Word from the International iHobby Expo folks is that 2009 was quite the success! Saturday’s attendance was their biggest ever with over 12,000 people! And trust me it felt like it.

Another iHobby Expo has come and gone, and I was lucky enough to attend one industry day, and one consumer day. So here’s the scoop from the show. The biggest news? Ever heard of Zippy packs? Maybe you have, maybe you haven’t, but to boil it down for those that have not, Zippy/HobbyCity battery packs might very well mark a big [...]

So, stopped by the Traxxas booth early day 1 to present them with an official Basher Approved Award for the Traxxas Slash.
