Sportwerks

Sportwerks is a brand of RC cars, trucks, and accessories available from Horizon Hobby.

Overview

Sportwerks was started in 2004 as a division of Horizon Hobby.

Sportwerks is best known for offering Ready to Run (RTR) and Almost Ready to Run (ARR) 1/8 scale nitro cars and trucks. The first vehicle under the Sportwerks banner was a 1/8 scale buggy called the Mayhem. The Mayhem quickly built a reputation with bashers and racers alike. Since that initial release, there have been 3 different variations of the Mayhem (Pro, ARR, RTR), a truck version named the Mayhem ST, and an electric 1/10 scale stadium truck called the Raven. More recently, Sportwerks has refined the Mayhem chassis, incorporated a number of performance-improving changes into it and rebadged it as the Turmoil. In addition, the 1/16 scale Sportwerks Chaos is one of the first sub-1/10 scale vehicles to utilize a nitro engine instead of a more conventional electric motor. They also recently released a 1/14th scale electric on-road car called the Recoil, utilizing a 370 motor. Sportwerks also produce a number of tools, engines, and accessories that include hauler bags, allen wrenches, starter boxes, and more.
