Just caught wind of this place and have lived here 3 years. I love cars and everything about them. So I decided to give rc cars a chance as a hobby. I purchased this little guy at a good fair price and it came ready to rock outta the box. It's my first hobby rc and I couldn't be happier. The guy working there. Forgive me I didn't get his name. But he was very helpful and knowledgeable and answered all the many questions I asked. I will be a regular here

I stopped at RC Hobbies about a month ago so my roommate could get some parts for his axial crawler. Like always I look around at the latest cars and trucks since they always carry a nice selection. I’ve always had axials and red cats but I couldn’t help but drool over the Traxxas TRX4 2021 Bronco! I happened to have my red cat with me so I asked Larry if he would be interested in a partial trade! He ended up making a great deal for me! I was amazed with the truck but unfortunately the following day It had a freak accident. I was showing a friend at work how cool this thing was and when I took the body off the shut the truck down the ESC started smoking like I’ve never seen one. Before I could even put the truck down it exploded in my face sending pieces into my eyes. I contacted traxxas and rc hobbies. After weeks of back and forth with traxxas I went to Larry. He went above and beyond sending my truck in for warranty and getting it back to me in a timely manner. He was understanding even when I wasn’t so understanding. I highly highly recommend giving Larry your business! Great people and a great company!

Always a pleasure to visit the RC Models Plus. They have a good selection of bashers and crawlers; mostly Traxxas, Arrma, and Axial rc models. They also carry a good selection of parts to help maintain these brands. I purchased my Traxxas trx4 sport crawler here and it has been an awesome model.

It has absolutely anything and everything you want from an RC and model store I’ve been looking for a Jeep Wrangler model for a while and I go here and find 4 right as I go in. The owner is super nice and beyond helpful I will be going back again and again. They also sell remote control planes and helicopters and fly them Friday and Saturdays and also have an free indoor racetrack for cars and trucks. If there were 10 stars to give I would. I highly recommend this store.

Not sure. But they staff there is pretty amazing.

Do you sell any build your own kits complete ready to go just assembly required?

I was in there a couple days ago and I dont think they had many fully build your own kits. But im not sure.

I see that they have a good indoor track, but is it still available for public use? I'm fine if it has a fee, I just need a good place to drive. My electric touring car is not happy on the road, as the rough surface damages the underside.

They used to, but I don't believe it's available to the public anymore.
