Absolutely love this place Aaron is the man he knows what he is talking about and he always helps me with whatever I need super nice guy but also super helpful read more

Finally Got My Traxxas Slash! I've been wanting a Traxxas Slash 2WD for years, and after countless hours of research, I finally decided to splurge and I'm glad I did. I purchased mine from Handle It Hobbies and it's well worth every cent. I live in the desert and this RC truck tears through the desert like a beast. It's rugged, it's speedy, and really, it's just so much fun. Aaron was the guy who assisted me, and he was fantastic! He really knowledgeable, interested, and pleasant. As a woman, I've had some bad experiences in hobby shops when I was not taken seriously, but Aaron was the polar opposite. He greeted me warmly and was excited for me to get into the hobby at last. Though the Slash is tough, Aaron made a point to take care of it properly through ample instructions. Especially when traveling through extreme desert conditions. His advice has earned me the advantage of having the truck run smoothly. If you have been undecided or just shopping around for a quality, reliable shop with quality service, I would recommend Handle It Hobbies! read more

Handle it hobbies is the only place I go. Arron has everything I need. I was in san jose last week and i went to a hobby store out there and they could not sell me anything. Nothing in stock. I went to Arron he had what I needed. I sent my son there today and his exact words. That guy was SUPER helpful. I was able to get the mini max shocks and the steering parts I needed for the slash ! read more

Aaron is amazing. He hooked me up with parts for my Typhon. Very knowledgeable. I appreciate his help. Customer for life.

This is my go to for all my RC needs. Aaron is super knowledgeable and eager to help you with your questions. He provides superb service and doesn't try to upsell you or nickle and dime you to death. He has definitely steered me right on my last purchases on parts, tools, and my last two RC cars. I unfortunately went to a larger shop for my first one, and was given some bad advice. Aaron would have saved me quite a bit of cash if I had gone to his place first. Lesson learned ! read more

What a find!!! I'm new to the RC scene and had bought 3 RC cars at a bigger, more well know shop. Not knowing any better or doing any research I thought they were the only shop like that in town. Boy was I wrong. Went to HandleIT Hobbies and the owner was awesome. The other shop made me feel bad for asking questions and was more interested in getting to the next person than helping me. Wish I would have spent my money elsewhere. Being that I already had bought the cars I needed parts and was going to try and avoid the other shop. I found HandleIT Hobbies and will continue to shop there. He had all the parts I needed and didn't try to upsell me just to make a buck. He was very knowledgeable and you can tell he's been doing it for a while. He helped me understand what parts are good to have on hand and what parts I wouldn't need to waste money on and why. His prices were fair and in the same range as what I could find online. Felt good spending money locally and helping support a local business. I will definitely be back, maybe even for a newer car! Thank you for all your help. read more

Love coming to HandleIT. Aaron is always willing to help and is very knowledgeable. Customer service is on point, yes you have to wait as it's a small store, but it's worth it. Prices are on point if not better than most and customer service surpasses all. Being new to the RC hobby I've noticed a lot of places don't waste time helping newbies learn or ask questions. I get it, takes a lot of time and also time away from other customers. Even though Aaron helps customers one by one and there is a wait sometimes, it benefits all. Now I come here and buy all my RC needs. Thanks Aaron read more

Arron was a rockstar. Straight to the point, sold me what I needed (2 wheel drive thrasher RC car for my son) and not what he wanted. I left feeling like I made a friend. Later when I ran into issues he took my call and walked me through the steps. My kids and I have had a blast the few weeks and the car is more then I ever expected!!! Thanks Arron see you soon for our new set of tires to rip up the hills!!! read more

Handle It Hobbies - Hobby Shops Near Me - Rancho Cucamonga, California

I rarely take the time to provide reviews, and when I do it's usually to inform ppl of a negative experience. I was recommended to this place by a fellow patron after recently purchasing a higher end RC car. Coming in there feels like stepping back in time in terms of customer service; I mean this in the best of ways. Dude is not out to just get your money! Will take his time to educate and show you available options that will work for you, your hobbies and your budget. The shop has an amazing selection of parts and accessories as well as complete RC packages. These kinds of shops seem to be a dying breed, let's support and keep this one strong... thank you for reading. T.H. read more

Would give Aaron 10 stars if I could. Been going to HandleIt Hobbies for over 6 years now and he always provides the best advice. I've gotten 4 full kits (so far) and all my supplies for those kits here as I refuse to buy online (you should support your local Hobby Store!!). I trust him and his recommendations 100%. He has integrity and is looking for long term, repeat business - never a quick buck. Great guy, great business! read more

I've been going here for a while now and I'm very satisfied with the customer service and the work they do on my RCs. This is my go to spot and they're very honest and fair with their pricing. If you own an RC they will take care of you. read more

I've been going to this shop for a few months now but waited to post my review so I could see how it is dealing with them over sometime. Aaron is great and extremely knowledgeable. I realized that he does not cut corners, he does things the right way. I've taken my Arrma, Losi and Axial to him (3 very different cars) and he always knows how to work on them or get the parts I need. It's nice to have a local shop that knows what they are doing and save me the time driving 20/30 miles away. Also, I'm a pretty busy person so it's nice that his rates are reasonable I can enjoy the hobby without paying crazy rates since sometimes I don't have time for larger repairs. read more

See all

My favorite hobby shop. The service is always great. I call often with questions on parts and get help by phone with direction and pointers and if something is not in they will get it, no questions. I'm into 1/5 and 1/8 scale racing so have purchased lots of odds and ends that goes along with the hobby. They have a huge selection of parts that out do the other places. I also find their rates to be exceptionally good on all their in stock and special order parts. They have the most needed parts and tools right off the shelf. As a small business owner I love to support local businesses in Rancho Cucamonga so it's a great asset to the community. I look forward to the growth and future of what Aaron is doing for this hobby! I like your family atmosphere and it shows in the place and what you do. :) Keep up the good work. Kevin E. "HandleIt" read more

Handle It Hobbies - Thank you for the support! - Hobby Shops Near Me - Rancho Cucamonga, California

The store had tons of space to move around! No complaints about the staff. The internet information provided was detailed and the site was easy to use. read more

This is one of the best RC shops around. You might find more parts and cars in stock in the big fancy RC store, but you will not get the personalized small-shop attention that you get at Handle It. Dude is a straight shooter, but he doesn't candy-coat stuff, which would probably explain the few negative reviews. The guy knows about everything there is to know about RCs. So nice to have a local available expert you can go in and talk to. You can tell that his motivation isn't to make gobs of money, but understand he's trying to pay his rent and feed his family just like the rest of it. I am proud to support small brick-and-mortar businesses, especially now, and I am happy to buy my RC parts at Handle-It. read more

Very cool place always have what I need and Aaron always points me in the right direction

This guy made me spend over $400 on my old rc car and still not working same problem didn't want to give me my money back unprofessional this guy shouldn't be allowed to touch anyone toys he is a big time scammer and will take all your money if you let him go to the big hobby shops there way better and more professional read more

I went to Home Depot looking for some hard to find very small screws. Guess what, the person working at HD recommended me to go see Aaron at this shop! He was very helpful and greatly able to provide me the screws I badly needed. Thank you!!! read more

Aaron at Handleit is the best resource for RC anything I know. He's helped me through a tough build and never gave up.

My husband came in with an old RC-Car to have it fixed. $400+ later and the car is still not working. Multiple visits to the shop and same recurring issue. How can you have someone invest so much money into a car you say you can fix, but didn't? Where's your customer service ? How can you just take someone's money and not do your best to fix the issue or process a refund? Something to resolve the issue to make your customer continue to come back to you? I'm so upset, I will make sure other people know how you handle business, so they don't waste their time nor money. read more

I recently found this place and I gotta say the owner is a very genuine guy who will not try to up-sell you something you don't need unlike other hobby shops, he is happy to answer any and all questions. Highly recommend! read more

Tried to find their website to purchase Christmas gift cards. They make it difficult. Looks like I will go and spend my money at another store. read more

Great little shop, happen to be in town for work training and knew I needed some parts for my rc cars before the weekend, found them on google and headed over after class, had everything I needed and was very helpful with suggestions, everything was priced fairly and I was in and out in no time, will definitely be going back whenever I'm in town read more

A really great store. I love it when I find a great small business, and HandeleIT Hobbies is a awesome store.............. I had gone to another Hobby store in Cucamonga near Wal-Mart. They were sort of rude. I don't know a lot about RC cars and they acted like I was clueless and they knew everything. It ended up they sold me the wrong Part for my car and I had to return it... LOL.... then I remembered there was an RC car store on Rochester (Handel IT). the guy that helped me was awesome. He got the right parts.. He then installed the right Batt connectors. and to top it all off he then showed me all this stuff about my RC car I didn't know... What an awesome store. the guy that helped me was named Arron and I would ask for him again..... Do your self and this store a favor... if you need any rc cars or parts or drones... go and support this store.... And... the prices were great...... read more

Great store. Didn't know they existed until a few months back. I now buy everything I can from there shop. Great customer service and pricing. Very knowledgable staff. Wether your a racer or a basher you can't go wrong going here. read more

Aaron, is all about great customer service! He is extremely friendly and patient. If he doesn't have what you are looking for, he makes every effort to get it for you. I have known Aaron since he first opened the shop and he has always treated me good and has given me great deals on my plane and quad needs. I try to do business with Aaron even though I moved out of the area. I highly recommend doing business with HandleIT, you wont regret it! read more

I just picked this up as a new hobby. I had alot questions about lipo batteries ,what kind of upgrades I should do. He was very helpful and honest . Thanks for the help read more

This has to be one of the most helpful places for RC cars. The owner is very friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful for beginners and veterans. Mostly parts but will order anything else you need. Great store will definitely make this a regular stop for parts and repair read more

I give this place an A+. The staff was very helpful and they didn't try and pressure me to buy a whole bunch of stuff i didnt need, like some other shops in the area. Arron was great. I took my broken Traxxas in and he told me what parts I need and even guided me on how to put them on. After that he soldered the broken wire on my remote starter free of change!! It's good to see that some businesses still take customer service seriously. read more

Came in the other day for axial bomber parts. Got what I needed and gained some knowledge. Excellent customer service. Thanks Arron.

The, what I assume to be, owner Aaron was very helpful and respectable. He had answers to all my questions and put in a special order for the parts I needed. Great place. I recommend them to anyone looking for a personable experience. I will be back. read more

This is a killer shop. Not a huge shop like others but Aaron can get anything you need if he doesn't have it. Such a great friendly shop that is needed in this hobby. There are to many big shops that just want to get you the part and get you out and not discuss or talk about anything. Not this shop! They take their time to talk to you and answer any and all questions you have. This is my preferred shop now. Even though there is another shop way closer I prefer to go to Handle It Hobbies. read more
