I stumbled across an old school R/C video recently on YouTube that covers the early beginnings of remote control cars. Little did I know that when I clicked that link I was going to be given a lesson in R/C history. I think most people will be surprised to learn that the R/C movement started [...]

Over the holidays I found some time to start adding scale details to the step by step Wraith kit build. I still have a little more work to do, but I wanted to update the blog with what I have done so far. Most of my time was spent detailing the rear “cargo” area of [...]

Not sure how many of you, if any, have heard of this race/rally. I recently stumbled across some video on YouTube from the 2010 Magam Trophy event. I must admit I was impressed to say the least, these guys are pretty hardcore. I could see this event being shrunk down to meet our scale R/C [...]

I finally got a chance to shoot a few action shots, and video of my Wraith kit build. I don’t have the video edited yet, because I have been too busy working on the Exo release, but it’s coming soon. For this first shakedown run I used a 5300mah 2S lipo, and it gave me [...]

As most of you know, Axial attended the 2011 SEMA Show in Las Vegas, Nevada recently. We had been secretly working with some strategic technical partners to give a sneak peek at the show of our latest vehicle, the Exo. Since Axial is predominantly known for making R/C crawlers, the release of the Exo was [...]
