In our effort to help our fellow bashers save some $$, this might be a good deal if for some reason you need a Losi Strike! Over on the Horizon Hobby website, they have the Strike with 2.4ghz receiver (no transmitter) for only $119!!! That’s like getting the strike for about $50 with the purchase of a Spektrum receiver! If [...]
Everybody likes saving a little cash now and then. Lucky for us a few of the big dogs are making it easy to save some big cash right now. Rebates abound out there on some great gear and cars. Basher friendly Duratrax is giving $15.00 back to you when you buy an Evader EXB or Evader EXT (check out [...]
Hey Cub-ster, I know you guys are all about bashing and so am I (hence the reason I bought a Savage X as my first RC in twenty years and is my first nitro truck, I love it!). However, I am thinking about getting into RC racing and I think a good place to begin would be 2WD stock CORR events [...]
It looks like MIP got hooked on the Losi Mini’s recently! They just released a bunch of products for the Losi 1/18th scale vehicles like the Mini-T and Mini-LST. A few of these products are the MIP Hard Coated Slipper Plates that replace the plastic ones with aluminum for more consistent slipping. They also released a [...]
Congrats to Rockstar/Makita/Suzuki rider Ryan Dungey on his first AMA 450cc Supercross class win Saturday night in Phoenix. Ryan is basically a rookie in the big bike class, but has already shown in the first two races of the young 2010 Supercross season that he will be a threat for the title (as he leads the points chase right now). [...]
New from Losi is a Bind And Drive edition of their popular 18th scale Mini Rock Crawler. Same great crawler as the RTR, but you save money (about $30) as it does not come with transmitter. Just bind up your own Spektrum transmitter to the pre-installed Spektrum receiver and you are ready to rock and crawl. Check [...]
There’s no doubt that rock crawling is huge right now. Losi has made some big innovations with their Mini-Rock Crawler and 2.2″ Class crawler. They have now added another innovative crawler to the family, only this time it’s a little one. Seeing a niche for desktop crawlers, Losi delivered with the 1/24 scale Micro Rock crawler. Don’t let [...]
News on several new “minis” has broken as of late, is there really any interest left in the small scale trucks? Horizon has released info on two very interesting models, first the 1/24th scale Micro Rock Crawler, and secondly, the 1/18th Mini Desert Buggy. The Micro Crawler may just be a bit too micro, I mean, just how many core [...]
Pro-Line Racing follows up the success of it’s ultra-aerodynamic Slipstream E-Revo & Mini E-Revo with an offering for the Losi 8ight-E 2.0.Make your Losi 8ight-E 2.0 the sleakest truggy on the track. Made from .040 Lexan, the Slipstream has 5 air intake points and one output to control airflow and make your truggy not only stand out visually, but also stick to the [...]
While Losi has been notorious recently for hyping releases. It seems odd then that the Losi Mini Desert Buggy nearly went unnoticed. Based on the Mini-T/Mini Slider platform, this new scale buggy looks like it has what it takes to be a solid performer. The first thing a person will notice about is the scale roll cage. [...]
See the teaser for Kyosho’s latest and greatest, no not their entry into the SC market, but for their DBX VE? Let’s say you take an 8th scale buggy and shrink it down a bit to use 10th scale speedo’s, motors and a single 2S battery. Then you put on a buggy body that any Trekkie would approve of, [...]
Ready to conquer the rough terrain of the sandpits, Losi gives us the new 1/36 Micro-HIGHroller RTR. This little beast is ready to do battle with it’s raised chassis design, front and rear skid plates, all riding on 50-Series wheels with all-terrain tires. Did I mention it’s RTR as well? All the way down to the charger, [...]
So Yamaha finally showed their all new 2010 YZ450F yesterday. New from the ground up, it features a radically different airbox/cylinder/carb setup than any previous production motocross bike. The amount of “pre-hype” for the bike was huge, as it should have been on such an innovative design. And while bike sales spiraled downward during the poor economy, the Yamaha 2010 [...]
I don’t buy the rc mags. Am I cheap? Maybe so, but normally I fill up on mags for free at trade shows and races. Today, a good friend of mine told me “You gotta see the new issue of RC Driver!”, so off I went looking for it. RC Driver had been pulled off the shelves of my local [...]
