Summary: Hobbies Direct increases prices on top RC vehicles

Why It Matters: The competitor has raised prices on several popular models and updated their featured "Truck of the Year" to a new brand. This may signal a shift in their supply costs or a change in their primary brand partnerships.

What Changed:

• Prices increased on several best-sellers, including the Xinlehong 9125 (from $159.98 to $179.99) and Rovan Baja models.
• The featured "Truck of the Year" was changed from a generic best-seller to the Atrek Ambush Pro.
• Added "RC Bundles" as a new category in the main navigation menu.
• Updated the total product count in their marketing text from 76,000+ to 77,000+.
• Updated the copyright year in the footer to 2026.
• Changed the "Staff Picks" section to include a new 1/64 scale HPI Nano racer.
