If your going to be competitive buy the ARTR if not go for the scaler.

Is the scaler ax90007 kit out already? If your looking for real hardcore crawling, I would go with the 2.2

depends on what you want to do. if going slow and climbing everything in sight get the ARTR 2.2. If you want to cruise around trails and climb a bit smaller things here and there then get the scaler.
ultimatlry it comes down to what you want to do.
the scaler won't be as capabale as the ARTR at all out crawling but the scaler is cool for casual crawling and whatnot.

ok so scalers with 2.2's cant crawl everything in sight or dose it take a lot of skill and tries. because i was thinking about changing th 1.9's to the 2.2's. but i want to crawl everything and anything.

Both are awesome I guess...but they run in different environment...I won't play with my ARTR into muddy or wet terrain...they belong to the rock! The SCX also cool...can do both terrain but intended more to the trail driving...not to the rock.

X-2 the scaler is not going to be a very competitive crawler. You have to decide if you want to have a comp rig or just a crawler and go from there.

It does not matter which product you pick from Axial; they're all great!
