Think of them as close cousins, not twins. The Egress is the refined, purpose-built champion, while the VQS is the accessible, fun-loving successor designed to bring that championship feeling to a wider audience. Egress (1991): This was Tamiya’s direct weapon for winning. Born in the ultra-competitive early 90s, the Egress was the pinnacle evolution of […]

Forget lap times, racing lines, and technical tuning sheets for a moment. There exists a purer, more visceral, and fundamentally joyful corner of the RC world: the jump. RC buggy jumping isn’t just an action; it’s a discipline, an art form, and a direct line to childlike exhilaration. It’s where engineering meets airtime, and the fun is […]

To understand the battle between the Kyosho Turbo Scorpion and the Kyosho Optima is to step into a time machine set for the mid-1980s, the absolute zenith of off-road RC buggy innovation. This wasn’t just a rivalry between two kits; it was a philosophical war for the soul of 4WD VS RWD offroad racing, a […]

Enter the realm where the gentle hum of a scale trawler gives way to the visceral, turbine-like scream of pure, unadulterated power. This is the domain of 4S and 6S LiPo batteries in RC boating—a world not for the faint of heart, but for those who believe the phrase “excessive speed” is a personal challenge. […]

Forget the need for a wide-open field or a dedicated track. The greatest racing circuit in the world might just be your living room floor, a stretch of sidewalk, or the cleared-off surface of your dining table.

Nestled within the expansive green embrace of Tin Shui Wai Park, just a short walk from the buzz of its famous RC car track, lies a more serene but equally captivating aquatic counterpart: the park’s dedicated Radio-Controlled Boat pool. This isn’t just a pond; it’s a purpose-built, rectangular basin of calm, blue water that transforms […]

The Unsung Gem of Tin Shui Wai: Where Miniature Racers Roar Tucked away in the heart of Tin Shui Wai’s sprawling parkland, far from the district’s often-discussed headlines, lies a haven of pure, unadulterated adrenaline. This isn’t your typical urban green space for tai chi or picnics. Here, the soundtrack is a high-pitched, buzzing symphony […]

In the scale RC world, few chassis have achieved the legendary, almost folkloric status of the Tamiya TT-02. Launched in 2013, it became the undisputed king of the entry-level, on-road “Sports Chassis” platform. Affordable, durable, simple, and blessed with an almost infinite array of body options, the TT-02 was the gateway drug for a generation of […]

When you have difficulties finding parts for the TT02B, try to look for DF02 parts. Many of them are compatible!  

Let’s be honest. For many of us, the iconic image of Tamiya is a cardboard box brimming with gray plastic trees, a set of instructions, and the promise of a weekend lost in the pure joy of assembly. The build is the point. So, when Tamiya—the undisputed king of the kit—introduces a line of factory-built, ready-to-display models […]
