Now I have one of the lightweight Parma: Speedflo 2.0 Body versions, I just need to slap a paint job in it so I can see how it drives!

Getting your nitro car or truck up and running with a new starter box properly can save you time and frustration down the road. There’s nothing like having a flame-out and seeing your pit crew struggling to get your car restarted on an ill-prepared starter box.

I’ve always been a fan of smaller vehicles. They tend to cost less than larger vehicles, have a tendency to to be a great value, are often loaded with performance features found in much more expensive vehicles, and can be easily hopped up and customized. The Mini 8IGHT-T Truggy from Losi is one of those vehicles that really fits this bill

  My very first racing vehicle was an original gold tub “Edinger” RC10 with an “A” stamp on the back of the chassis.  I can’t even begin to count the number of vehicles in the RC10 series that I have …

  A while back our fearless leader, Executive Editor Greg V, did a cool Jallopy Traxxas Slash project that I really liked.   He took a bunch of different parts that were hanging around the RC Driver office and built a …

There have been countless versions of the 2wd and 4wd Slash aimed at different segments of the market. After what seemed like an eternity Traxxas recently released a brushless version of the 2wd Slash that featured a cool LCG (low center of gravity).

How do i make my vehicle go faster? These are the words most people working at a brick and mortar hobby shop probably hear more than any other. It seems that everyone wants to go faster.

By David Baker Change the color of your radio to match your ride or style I like to change anything from its box-stock form. That includes my transmitters. I was painting my radios silver long before they were available in …

Unless you live in a remote part of the world or you just got into the hobby yesterday, you know that one of the best upgrades you can add to any RC vehicle is a gear or slipper unit from Robinson Racing Products, a.k.a RRP. This month we are installing a steel spur gear to a Slash 4x4.

  A short while back I completely decked out my awesome little Losi Mini 8IGHT-T for an issue of RC Driver magazine.  I absolutely love this little truggy because of its size, many features, and that it can be easily hopped-up.  …

Greetings, tech fans! Recently I was able to assist with running a major on-road race’s tech inspection processes. This included the vehicle tech before racing as well as the motor pre-tech and post-race processes. This was not the first time I’ve done this and I always enjoy event organizing.

By the time you’re done building a chassis, painting
