So maybe you’ve heard a little something by now that Traxxas has a new car out? LOL Yes, the most highly anticipated release of the year, the Traxxas XO-1, has officially been unleashed on the public. So what’s the buzz? First off I was a bit startled by the shear amount of rabid hate going around the net on the [...]
The Traxxas XO-1 has finally been announced! That’s XO as in XOhh. Pretty sure thats not the Traxxas X0-1 As in X Zero. Also it’s not XO1. Pretty sure they want that dash. It’s an on-road vehicle that Traxxas is claiming will do 100+ MPH with two 3S 5000 packs! It also has a App for the iPhone with telemetry [...]
Sitting on my desk today was a box from Pro-Line. I always like surprises! Especially the ones that Cubby has not already opened and is driving around in the parking lot, and all I see is the empty box. This one was untouched! So I open it up to find a new body! It’s a new Jeep Cherokee 1992 for [...]

THE Helion Animus 18TR 4×4 RTR ReviewWhen Cubby calls you answer it, so when I saw Cubby’s name pop up on my caller ID I knew I was either in for a butt chew’n or for something fun. Luckily he was calling to ask me to review the Helion Animus 18TR for BigSquid. The 18TR is the latest and [...]
That’s right, we have a winner! All the names of everyone that entered were put into a spreadsheet, those names randomly sorted, then Cubby presses the button on a random number generator. That number tells us what person wins. This way none of us feel bad about all the people that didn’t win.. well, Cubby never feels bad, but [...]
To keep testing the waters with some crossover rc news, we have another plane unboxing for you. This time around we have the Flyzone Sensei.

Cheerio fine people of the rc world and welcome to my latest uber (read- far from greatest) edition of THE Cub Report. Traxxas rules the world, not that I had to tell you that, I only said it because it’s a nice intro. Anyways… Traxxas will finally reveal to the public at large their way-super-dope-end-of-the-world-as-we-know-it brand spank’n new vehicle [...]

So you may have noticed a couple of ads for some planes lately. This is one of those cross-overs that I think a lot of us bashers sort of secretly dabble in now and then. Wrench and I have been out with our resident super pilot 3DBill to try and fly now and then, and we all own at least [...]
THE Helion Dominus 10SC 4wd Short Course RTR Truck ReviewEverybody loves short course trucks- they look b!tch’n, they can usually handle a beating, and they are a blast to drive. But… if you walk in a hobby shop with only $200 cash in your pocket you can’t even walk out with a 2wd SCT, let alone 4wd. Well hello [...]
Oh what fun things we get up to accross the pond… Here’s an EPIC ad from the UK for Avios – an airmiles rewards program. These guys have taken their company slogan to a whole new level, by making everything fly. No, really, EVERYTHING. Yes, that was a flying barbeque, but just in case you didn’t believe any of that here’s some behind [...]
