That’s right, we are “bobbing the bed” of our TF2 RTR. In the 1:1 off-road world peopl ..read more

The best we can hope for, as R/C enthusiasts, is a scaled down mini version that won’t break the bank! Is that even possible? Enter the Traxxas Unlimited Desert Racer (UDR)!  This beast is about as close as any of us are goi ..read more

As most of you probably know Traxxas has been a leader in the R/C industry for years with their monster trucks and ballistically fast brushless truggies. And we are also guessing most of you know Traxxas stepped away from their speedy ways when they recently released the TRX-4 RTR R/C Rock Crawler.
