You just can’t stop the Cow! CowRC continues to impress us with its useful offerings for your pits or workbench. This month we received one of their newest releases, the Screw & Part Storage System Dot Boxes. The Dot Boxes are a neat way... literally to store all those little screws, nuts, washers, body clips, diff balls, you name it, into a tidy box system.

Let’s face it, if you’re going to drop a large wad of cash for a high end radio system, you’d better make certain it is protected at all times when not in use. I’ve seen so many radios knocked off a pit bench or solvents sprayed on them or things dropped on them it makes me cringe. All could have been easily prevented if the radio was just stored in a case.

It's incredible how quickly 2WD buggies are evolving and the directions they are going. When 2WD buggies surged back into the RC scene they were rear motor mounted as they had been for years, but now mid motor has become standard for high bite indoor racing

More Cool Stuff from RC Driver!

Helion has seen tons of success providing us with its very capable models at an unbe- lievable price point. After driving the Dominus short course truck which was released a couple of years ago, I was sure that the Invictus 10MT would provide a great driving experience once I had the privilege of taking the wheel.

Rewind the clock 27 years and you will find me, a 13-year-old boy sitting at my parent’s dining room table, experiencing the thrill and challenge of building my first ever RC car, the Tamiya Blackfoot. Fast forward to the present, and now I find myself sitting at my own dining room table building the latest kit from Tamiya, the Aqroshot.

O.S. Engines is best known for their nitro power plants for all sorts of RC vehicles. From planes to helis and especially cars and trucks, the engine manufacturer is well-known for the reliability and power of the mills they produce.

The Slash has seen quite a few years of service, with Traxxas introducing something new with each release. It’s progressed from a pretty basic 2WD Short Course truck to something with 4WD, a Low-CG chassis, waterproof electronics, stickier tires and even a rockin’ sound system.

It goes without saying that the people over at LRP know a thing or two about designing high quality speed controls, motors, chargers and other electronics. In fact, their electronics have collected about a dozen world titles and have been in vehicles that have cruised to victory way back at the 1995 IFMAR World Championships and most recently, at the 2013 IFMAR World Championship.

While most of us in the RC surface world are used to pistol grip transmitters, twin stick transmitters will always have their place in the hobby. Already popular in the RC boating segment, twin sticks are indispensable in both high end rock crawling and scale applications.

There are a few RC vehicles on the market that seem to have an endless number of aftermarket parts available and the Axial SCX10 is one of those machines. It seems like wherever you look online, there is a totally custom SCX10 that has some parts you’ve never seen before.

In the RC Driver offices we’re often asked by enthusiasts and even manufacturers what we think the next big thing is or if we could request one new vehicle from any company, what would it be? Well for over two years now, we’ve been wishing there was a large scale crawler offering.

Without a doubt Tamiya has a huge following in the RC world. They’ve helped introduce this hobby to so many people over the years and if you ask any RCer to rattle off a few names of popular Tamiya kits or a list of Tamiya kits they would like to have, the Bruiser or Mountaineer would most likely be on the list.

Developing a new car brand is not an easy thing to do nowadays, but one company seems to be having an easy time gaining respect in the racing community and that company is SWorkz. SWorkz has been around for several years with quality products and designs and they have signed World Champion driver, Atsushi Hara to wheel their extensive line of race vehicles.
