New Ammara Granite 4x4.... +  1/10 scale traxxis they helped me repair after I couldn't quite get something right.

I have enjoyed the RC car hobby, especially with my kids. I've been going to this store and have purchased four RC units. It's been a lot of fun and their service is top-notch here. Every one of the guys here are great. I have worked with Gene and Mike in particular.. always A+ service. Another thing I like about all these guys they're very knowledgeable, and they just share so much information. Very educational. Today I was here and I forgot my remote and I was 2 miles away and they took the time to look up my number and called me. They're just great guys that enjoy what they're doing and have a good time. Lastly, their prices are fair. In this hobby, you're gonna have things that need to be maintained and repaired from time to time. So don't go on Amazon and buy from Jeff Bezos and then come here thinking that they can fix it when you just try to save $10. Support local and support these guys. Keep Austin weird and funky

My first time here I was not expecting much, but I have to admit this place is crammed full of hobby items, such as models, rockets, planes, and everything in between. One other thing I noticed is that they seem to have security cameras on every single aisle in this 2000 square-foot space (I counted 14). Yes, many yelpers have commented that you can find much of the stuff online, but it's much more exciting to see it all in one place at one time. Coming in here reminded me of my teenage years when I used to build models and dioramas. Along with all the model, rocketry, cars, planes, boats, they also have puzzles and toys. Many of their remote controlled items are close to $100 or more. Definitely a nice hobby shop if you're into this kind of thing. Plenty of pictures below to get you through the door.

The store has an amazing assortment of RC Cars and trucks. Unfortunately their service is lacking. Stopped by because I was somewhat in the area and needed parts but did not want to wait for them to ship via online. Associate started to help me, got some items together for me, "said be right back" after showing me to some QS8 plugs. I then waiting for him for about 5 mins, he walked past me and told the other guy he was going out for coffee. I told that other guy to ring my stuff and I'd be on my way. I'm done trying to support this pos store. Save yourself the gas and headache. Order online. Amain.com is amazing and fast.

Poor customer service
