RC Truck and Crawler Testing - Remote Blowout

Gyro Hobbies Traxxas SlashWe started our RC binge by clicking to the Gyro Hobbies website to order a Traxxas Slash. If you are fortunate enough to live near the Gyro Hobbies Southern California storefront you have to check it out. Gyro Hobbies has everything from entry-level models all the way up to advanced 6-foot-long remote controlled jets and helicopters. The Traxxas Slash is a two-wheel-drive life-like CORR racing truck. Testers noted that the long wheelbase and wide stance make it extremely stable and perfect for jumping and high-speed bashing. This is the RC car for you if you if you want to inexpensively race your buddies on a small track or chase kids down the street on their bikes. It features water-resistant electronics and testers noted that it has an extremely durable drivetrain that will easily hold up to a much more powerful brushless electric motor upgrade. Much like the real CORR racers, you'll notice tire rub on the body. Not a big deal unless that kind of thing bothers you.Pros: Stable at speeds. Good for jumping. Plenty of overbuilt partsCons: Two-wheel-drive. Poor traction on loose soil. Tire rub View Related Article
