The gear listed here is stuff we actually use and trust. If it earned a spot on our rigs or in our shop, it is worth a look.
Electronics & Tools
-

MEUS RACING ME-10B
Our new favorite radio! It’s orange (so you won’t lose it) but really, it has 10-channels and a nice easy interface. Grab the programmer as well for easy firmware updates later on.
-

RC Hex Driver Set
New to the hobby? Need some tools. These are well priced and easy to hang-on-to. You’ll end up with like 4 sets 5-years from now.
-

Reefs RC Triple7 Servo
Our favorite servo! Direct power (save the bec) and tons of torque. You might cry a little, but it’ll only be once :)
-

INJORA 4LED Rock Lights Kit
Our go-to rock-lights. They’re bright, easy to install and waterproof. Can’t ask for more.
-

MIP 9805 8.0mm Metric Hex Nut Driver
If you’ve grabbed a Axial Gilamon or any Vanquish truck, you know you need one of these so you can get to the wheel nuts!
-

Milwaukee FASTBACK Compact Knife
Our new favorite utility knife. Quick to open and quick to close one-handed.
-

Loctite 243 Blue Medium Strength
A must-have for anyone in RC. Any parts that are metal-to-metal that you want on your truck by the end of the trail, make sure you use Loctite.
-

Werka Digital Caliper 6" Digital Caliper
Don’t cheap-out, grab some good digital calipers that’ll last and are really accurate.
-

Weller 70 Watt Digital Soldering Station
Another buy-once-cry-once item. A quality iron that you’ll never need to replace (probably).
-

Flysky FS-GT5 6CH
We’re putting this here since we have two or more of them and they’re still great and reliable. Not as nice (menu) as the Meus, but still a quality radio.
Batteries & Chargers

ISDT FD-200 Smart Discharger 200W 25A
