Every hobby is unique in their own way. R/C gives people a variety of ways to have fun. Learn how to build and upgrade your vehicle. Experience crawling, drifting, racing and more.

Start by renting a crawler in our indoor crawling course. This will allow you to try R/C for an affordable price and see if it is right for you. If you choose to purchase an R/C vehicle from us on the same day as renting, you will get 50% of your admission back and a free 2-hour pass for our crawler course!

Depending on where you are planning to run your R/C vehicle, there are a wide range of options to choose from. Roads, hills, water, etc. Cars are best used on flat surfaces. Trucks and bashers are great for all-terrain. Crawlers are built for rocks, hills, and other obstacles. Come into our shop to speak with our staff today!

R/C trucks are made for…crawling! Rocks, hills, mud, and everything in between. These vehicles can be ran almost anywhere and are very easily upgradable to make them more fun and powerful!

Upgrading your R/C is mostly personal preference. All of our vehicles are able to run as-is but upgrading takes the fun to the next level! It mostly depends on what type of R/C vehicle you have, but in general, we recommend starting with steering servo. We welcome you to come into our shop and speak with our team to understand your needs and figure out exactly what you want to upgrade in your vehicle.

Electric vehicles are faster and more upgradeable than ever before! Their power, handling, and control rival or are better than most gas-powered and nitro R/C vehicles.
