🔧 THE BENCH

There’s always another skill to learn in RC. 🔧

What’s one workshop skill you’d like to get better at?

Maybe it’s soldering, painting shells, rebuilding shocks, setting gear mesh, tuning engines, repairing bodywork or something completely different.

And if it’s something you’ve already mastered, perhaps you’ve got a tip for somebody who’s still learning. 👇

Nobody starts out knowing everything—that’s half the fun of the hobby! 💛

💛 COMMUNITY WISDOM

RC doesn’t always have to be about going faster, upgrading or chasing the perfect setup.

Sometimes the best advice is simply about enjoying the hobby more. 💛

What’s something you’ve learned that has made RC more enjoyable for you?

Maybe it’s worrying less about scratches, finding the right people to enjoy it with, taking fewer tools and just going for a run or completely changing how you approach the hobby.

Share your bit of community wisdom below. 👇

🏎️ RTR OR KIT - WHERE DO YOU START? 🔧

Getting into RC doesn’t always mean starting in the same place.

An RTR (Ready-to-Run) model can be a great way to get out and enjoy the hobby quickly, with most of what you need already put together.

A self-build kit offers a very different experience. Building the model is part of the hobby itself - learning how everything fits together and getting the satisfaction of eventually seeing something you’ve built come to life.

Neither route is necessarily the right one.

It really depends on what part of RC appeals to you.

Would you rather get straight out and drive or would building the model be half the fun? 🏁

✨ NEW PRODUCT - TAMIYA NISSAN R91CP! 🏁

A very special piece of Tamiya and motorsport history has joined the Eason’s RC range.

The 1/10 Tamiya Nissan R91CP recreates the legendary prototype racer that followed its 1991 Japanese championship success with victory at the 1992 Daytona 24 Hours. 🏆

And there’s plenty underneath that iconic body for RC enthusiasts too:

⚡ Sport-Tuned motor included
🏁 Direct-drive rear-wheel drive for sharp, responsive handling
⚙️ Ball differential
🔧 CVA rear oil damper & FRP T-bar suspension
📐 Adjustable front and rear ground clearance
🛞 High-grip sponge tyres, with wider rears
🎨 Detailed polycarbonate body, cockpit and driver figure

It’s a proper self-assembly Tamiya experience with an interesting chassis to build, plenty of scale detail to enjoy and genuine racing history behind it.

Would you build this one to drive, or would it end up being too nice to risk? 👀

🚗 PIT LANE

We all have an RC that hasn’t seen enough action lately... 👀

If you could bring one model out of retirement this week, which one would it be?

Maybe it’s been sitting on a shelf, waiting for a repair, buried at the back of the collection or another model simply keeps getting chosen instead! 😄

What deserves another run?

And if this gives you the push to dust it off and get it going again...even better! 🏁

And more importantly... what’s the story behind it?
