# Save Big On RC Cars And Trucks During Amain Hobbies’ End-Of-Summer Sale

![Deals on RC Cars and trucks you can't miss.](<https://www.thedrive.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/deals-rc-cars-0919.jpg>)

It's no secret that I love building, driving, and modifying radio controlled cars. I've written *The Drive's* buyer's guides for [RC trucks](<https://www.thedrive.com/reviews/29780/best-rc-trucks>), [RC cars](<https://www.thedrive.com/reviews/30220/best-rc-cars>), and even [RC drift cars](<https://www.thedrive.com/news/44211/best-rc-drift-cars>). I've reviewed a few different trucks: the 1:16 scale Bezgar HP161S basher, the 1:10 scale [Laegendary Thunder](<https://www.thedrive.com/guides-and-gear/review-laegendary-thunder-rc-truck-hands-on>) basher, and the 1:10 scale [Laegendary Grondo](<https://www.thedrive.com/guides-and-gear/test-laegendary-grando-rock-crawler-hands-on-review>) rock crawler. I own several cars and trucks that I haven't reviewed, including a Traxxas Slash. The VXL version of it is one of the many trucks going at a discount during Amain Hobbies' End of Summer Sale. And there are a ton more deals on RC cars and trucks to check out.

![Traxxas Slash as tested](<https://www.thedrive.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/24/traxxas-slash-front-quarter-cornering.jpg>)

The RC hobby seems to fixate on trucks. When I was a kid, everything was about the buggies. Now it's bashers and rock crawlers that dominate the space. I have a Traxxas Slash in my collection and I love the scale looks and performance. I also like that I can drive it just about anywhere. The one I own is the brushed 2WD version. Right now, the [Traxxas Slash 4x4 VXL Brushless](<https://www.avantlink.com/click.php?tt=cl&mi=17269&pw=265757&ctc=TD-RV&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.amainhobbies.com%2Ftraxxas-slash-4x4-vxl-brushless-1-10-4wd-rtr-short-course-truck-orange-tra68286-4-orng%2Fp1525601>) version is just $349.95 including the transmitter. If you'd rather get into a 1:10 scale rock crawler for the same price, the [Traxxas TRX-4 Sport High Trail Edition crawler](<https://www.avantlink.com/click.php?tt=cl&mi=17269&pw=265757&ctc=TD-RV&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.amainhobbies.com%2Ftraxxas-trx4-sport-high-trail-edition-1-10-scale-trail-rock-crawler-blue-tra82044-4-blue%2Fp1501214>) is also on sale.

I recently bought a TRX-4M, which is the 1:18 scale version of that truck. Speaking of smaller scales, this [Kyosho MX-01 Mini-Z 4X4 Readyset Land Rover Defender 90](<https://www.avantlink.com/click.php?tt=cl&mi=17269&pw=265757&ctc=TD-RV&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.amainhobbies.com%2Fkyosho-mx01-miniz-4x4-readyset-w-land-rover-defender-90-body-dark-green-kyo32529gr%2Fp1448162>) is on sale for $138.99. It's perfect for crawling in the backyard or even indoors if you want. Or, if you want something a little more unique to drive around the house, how about this [Orlandoo Hunter Micro 6x4 Scania semi-truck kit](<https://www.avantlink.com/click.php?tt=cl&mi=17269&pw=265757&ctc=TD-RV&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.amainhobbies.com%2Forlandoo-hunter-oh32t01-1-32-scale-micro-6x4-scania-semitruck-kit-olhoh32t01%2Fp1523358>) for $134.99?

Not everyone is into trucks. Maybe [RC drifting](<https://www.thedrive.com/news/check-out-these-sick-drifting-trick-shots-with-rc-cars>) is more for you. If you also happen to be a European car fan, then you're in luck. The [MST RMX 2.5 E92 Body](<https://www.avantlink.com/click.php?tt=cl&mi=17269&pw=265757&ctc=TD-RV&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.amainhobbies.com%2Fmst-rmx-2.5-1-10-2wd-brushless-rtr-drift-car-w-e92-body-light-blue-mxs-533902lb%2Fp1466509>) for $349.99 is your best choice in this particular sale. Maybe you want something that's aimed at just street-hooning, and you want something big(like 2 feet long). In that case, check out this [Maverick QuantumR Flux 4S RTR Race Truck](<https://www.avantlink.com/click.php?tt=cl&mi=17269&pw=265757&ctc=TD-RV&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.amainhobbies.com%2Fmaverick-quantumr-flux-1-8-4s-4wd-brushless-rtr-electric-race-truck-blue-red-mvk150312%2Fp1357856>) for $269.99. Lastly, if you're interested in the stuff I've tested, the Bezgar is on sale at Amazon right now and is still a pretty great deal.
