Many have been stuck inside for months, or you’re out partying like it’s 1999. Either way, a good RC read is always satisfying. In this issue, we’ve got some strange reviews.

Go-go juice is required for nitro engines and we love Byron fuel. Not just because their people are Mid-West amazing, but their fuel never disappoints. We’ve got some nitro reviews in the works and this fuel will be filli...
We placed all of our LiPo batteries onto a high-wire and they kept falling off! Man, they really could use some balance! Get it? No? Too soon? Ok, well, Duratrax hasn’t only solved our balancing issue with their newest On...

We love Mustangs. Mostly for their awesome feature of doing a burnout and crashing into a crowd on video. We watch them all day. Sure Derek is a Camaro owner, but there’s something about this iconic American car that capt...
