HardCore Hobbies

I have been taking my son there a 1-2 day a week wether we stay 20min or 2 hours
He always has a blast!! Always wants to go back
Hung out with the owner in the parking lot when they where closing trying out a few cars I broke out the Losi dirt bike we all got to check it out and talk RC stuff for a while super friendly guy and knows what he’s talking about. Another customer just bought a consignment truck and was ripping it off the 5’ ramp 1/2 way across the dirt track very cool

Local RC hobby shop with an indoor and outdoor track available for use. They are super awesome and knowledgeable about the hobby. Justin is a wizard and has always been able to figure out what my issues were and get them fixed and help with parts to upgrade to. He takes the time to explain the issues, the causes, and what the fixes are going to do. Even the customers that shop there are great and will offer up their knowledge. I can't recommend this shop any higher, check it out if you're interested in the hobby!

Great shop! Friendly and very knowledgeable! Brought my fully discharged battery back from the dead. Happy to have a good local shop in my area.

So I been to this place about 4-5 time , first time i just looked cuz it was packed and I had many questions (newbie to rc). Second time I ended gettimg rhe Ford raptor (dope rc car but i wish i had the real one lol). The other times just went to look, the help was so OUTSTANDING that not only i found wat i was looking for I ended up getting more parts just cuz they had them at hand. Not to mention my brother ended up getting a "Crawler" for a great price 👍 👌 😀. 10 out of 5 wen for parts and ended up wit lots of knowledge about the cars!!! Actually heading back to get a recommended part that ended up breaking lol. So yes will go back again and will recommended 100%!!! OUTSTANDING work!!!

Let me start off by saying if you have not been here yet or thinking about it just do it! Awesome down to earth people! Thank you Justin and kristina! You guys are awesome. Just recently got back into the rc rabbit hole and if this place does not carry what you are looking for they will happily order it! Growing my rc collection thanks to Hardcore Hobbies!

Staff very helpful and honest. Had a great experience and will continue to give them my business. Would certainly recommend

Excellent service every time you visit them, buy things, recommended👍🏽

Awesome experience. Very friendly people. Grate prices indoor track outside track. And close to home i cant wait to see the events.

Just walked in for the first time today and the guys there are top notch! I’ve been into planes for awhile but haven’t run a truck for a bit. I got a truck for a gift and blew out some parts and they helped me find what I needed to make it better than new, they even understood my two kids being curious about everything. If you need help fixing, or getting into the hobby, this is the place!

Best place in all of New England. I drove up from Connecticut, absolutely amazing shop. They even have a help counter separate from the cash out counter. They had so much selection for just about every model Hobbie I can think of. Check this place out!!!

First time going here won't be the last. I thought this type of hobby shop was no longer in Rhode Island one's with radio control products anyway. It’s nice they have an outdoor track and I think an indoor track. I'm not sure about the indoor one but I know there's one outside . Now I have a place to go for parts when I need them instead of ordering online and have to wait for delivery.

Really nice people...Awesome service.
I purchased a xmaxx for myself and a rustler for the kids plus the batteries and charger. Then I went back for parts on the rustler two days later (kids crashed it).
The staff helped with the repairs and showed us how to do it. Four days later my daughter crashed the xmaxx. So back to the store I went for more parts. Both are still running and bashing..😁😁😁 Thank you

Went there with my son yesterday and found them very helpful and knowledgeable as they explained all the different models. Tons of vehicles and parts in stock. Great to deal with!

Knowledgeable and fun staff with reasonable prices. Great for beginners straight through to expert r/c racers. Indoor and outdoor tracks with both new and used r/c cars available. My son Xander has a great time every time!

Fantastic customer service you are immediately treated like family they go above and beyond to make sure your RC is at its best service is second to none. Rhode Islanders are very very lucky to have Hardcore Hobbies or we would all be getting royally screwed on service and labor OVER charges at Hobby Quarters. They took me under their wing and showed me how to fix everything on my RC car and you’re always there to answer any questions.

Good service, knowledgeable staff, competitive pricing.

Great hobby shop that RI has been missing! Quick turn around time on orders if they don't have it in stock. Friendly advice not push sales tactics, you are genuinely getting the right product and not being pushed to buy something you don't need. Tons of parts if and when you do break and a experienced staff and owners that fix everything at reasonable prices to get you back up and running. Forget online and shop here where you can speak to someone that can help you and educate you about your RC! You guys rock and ill be back soon for another truck and maybe an on-road!!!

Love the place! Went in there today they got paddle tires in stock. Yup bought me a pair of 2.8 paddles and some trx male ends. As always I walk in there and they're turning screws helping people out. Good staff good team.

I went to hardcore hobbies for a few parts for my traxxas, the employees are incredibly helpful and friendly. I’ve purchased batteries and vehicles from them. I’ve been to other stores in the New England area and the customer service and lack of knowledge made me never want to shop there again. After going to hardcore hobbies I’ll never shop anywhere else for my RC needs! They are the best!!!

******HIGHLY RECOMMENDED ******

I've visited the shop 5 or 6 times now and only purchased 1 truck on my new adventure into the RC world. The employees here have been more than helpful. They go above and beyond to find what I need and even help me fit it to my truck! I can't imagine any shop having better customer service than HardCore Hobbies! See you guys tomorrow, I broke more stuff already 😅
