It’s the second day of DuraTrax Evader DT week. Yesterday I installed some of DuraTrax’s high-end hard anodized shocks. Today I tackle the blue anodized aluminum front bulk head (part DTXC6807), the blue anodized aluminum transmission brace (part DTXC9640), and the Evader graphite chassis (part DTXC6999). If you aren’t a fan of blue, all of the aluminum [...]

I was sent this link recently, and there is a lot of controversy going around about it, so I’d like to state from the beginning that this was a horrible accident with some obvious mis-communications going on. The pilot of the full scale plane did recover from the hit and landed safely. I’m not sure how long the video [...]
Our Italian friends from HobbyMedia.it posted some info on the video below. It’s from 4 guys who brought two of my favorite things together in one, arcade games and RC! They mounted a camera to a 1/28th scale (looks like a Kyosho Overland) and built a cardboard track to run on. Then using the arcade cabinet controls, race around the [...]
So while bashing at our long jump event where we watched Tim Mohr set a Long Jump record we pulled out the HPI Baja 5B! A lot of people say you can’t bash with a 5B, that too much breaks, but I think this video may prove them all wrong! Nobody could believe the durability that this truck [...]
We added another video to our Big Squid RC YouTube Channel . This was a fun little shoot. We were at our local hobby shop, when a friend of ours from 3DHobbyShopRocks came by with a couple of planes he was looking to ‘retire’. Of course Bill’s eyes got real wide real quick! We grabbed the 4×4 Traxxas Slash, [...]
Ok, check this out! Some guy was flying a RC plan around with a rear facing camera on it, when a hawk decides to attack it! LOL. And not just once.. but it really goes after it… watch and enjoy A while back at a bash we were at, there was a hawk going after one of our 1/18th scale vehicles… [...]

We had the new Traxxas 1/16 E-Revo out for some testing, and had a great time with the vehicle! So far it’s been pretty durable, and it’s darn fast out of the box! Stock Battery – 30mph 2S Lipo – 34mph 4S Lipo – 49mph! Remember the standing backflip video from the HPI Savage Flux? The E-Revo can also do it pretty easily, [...]
Wow! This in nuts, and also pretty dang cool! How the heck do you know what one is yours? I have been flying with just a few planes in the air and gotten distracted.. what a cool event! Also.. just think about how impossible this would of been just a few years ago with AM/FM only!
So we were doing some testing over at the Leisure Hours track, when it came time to pull out the HPI Savage Flux! I could tell people were excited to check out the truck, heck half the track cleared when I got out there, and people from the pits came out to watch! After a quick test lap I started [...]
