Aaron helps me out a bunch every time I go there , Thank You for that bro. I like to go here instead of ordering stuff when I can. You can't beat talking to a real person for info trying to figure your upgrades or more complicated repairs. We're all getting used to reddit for problems or some sort of forums and that is cool but there is a lot of conflicting info and it is better to go here get your parts and cars and get all your questions answered.

Small hobby store than is pretty much entirely focused on RC cars, electric from what I could tell, I didn't see any nitro engines or fuel for that matter. There were a couple literally 2 or maybe 3 helis in the shop but mostly cars. They have most connection adapters ie xt60 to ec5 and such and they carry the small wire squid you know the one that has tons of different electronics connections on one side off of a bunch of individual leads and has a set of banana plugs to use in a charger on the other end. Charger wise they carry spectrum not isdt even though they are similar the spectrum version is always more expensive. The guy working there was super nice and since I came in at closing time the minor but if urgency I felt was more than justified IMO, even then he was still very helpful. Not my type of rc store cause I don't really do land based vehicles anymore but for those of you that do, it's a good shop, tons of batteries and car kits and what looked like pre built kits as well. No high "C" rated batteries or anything smaller like I would want for a 2;3;5 or even a 6 or 7 inch long range rig as I don't think a 5000 mAh 30c pack with an xt90 or the ec equivalent would really cut it especially not in the hard pack style that cars often use, every single gram adds up when flying multi rotor style craft. Again if cars and trucks and land based romp or race is your thing definitely check it out or if you need a charger in a pinch, no soldering irons or other electronics goodies though, pretty much it's already ready to use or they dont have it but still can't hate, thanks to the guy who helped me out. Oh yes not for first time customers but everyone after that there is a 3% service charge for using a debit (maybe credit as well don't recall) card. 3% can really add up. I can see a 3 dollar fee or you know maybe a buck 50 etc but 3% is kinda just squeezing you I feel. It should be a fixed fee so you know exactly how much extra the card use will cost you and they should have a map to the nearest ATM just my thoughts. Again cool little local shop so show your support but don't go expecting massive stock or huge selection or anything beyond RC cars trucks and buggies cause you probably won't find it here.

Looking for a more local RC Shop, Handle It Hobbies is a place I took a chance on and was a great choice!!!
I support Aaron's business 100% and tell anyone I know about his shop.
He was straight up from the start and it's places like this you need to stand by.
If you're set on buying something when you get there, he'll sell it to you, but before he does, he'll ask, "what exactly are you looking to do, what's your end game with your RC?" That right there told me he's just like the old places where we used to go. A business you could trust, very knowledge, and not in it just for the $. Been around the RC scene for a long time and it shows!

Aaron is the best. If you've got questions about anything RC, he's definitely the guy to go to. The shop is well stocked, and his recommendations are always spot on.

I get all my parts here as well as the vast majority of the answers to my questions. I absolutely recommend Handle It to anyone just starting out in RC's as well as to the experienced pro's.

There's nothing really to update, all the above is still exactly the same.

Really good prices for the limited stock that there is. If you ask him to get something he will get it in his stock a soon as possible. I recently purchased a 4x4 rustler still haven’t given it a proper run but will do so soon.

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!

Love this hobby shop, the owner is very knowledgeable and knows exactly what part I need without even having to look it up.
