The axial AX10 RTC ? I am questioning the ESC , does it have a crawler ESC that will hold you in position when you let off the throttle ? Thanks, |

If you are truly talking Ready to Run, then the Losi 1.9 (for the 1.9 class) or the Axial RTR is about your only option. The new Losi for 2.2 will not have electronics, battery or radio included.

A "comp worthy" crawler greatly depends on driving skill more so than parts and upgrades. Plenty of people have won comps rtr and beat those with "built" rigs. You can't just buy a pimped out rig and expect to do well in a comp, it's something you have to practice at. Long answer short, buy what you can afford and see how you do...  |

Losi Comp Crawler. You will have to wait for the battery to charge when you buy everything anyway, so use that time to install the servos, rx, ecs, and motor. By the time you are done, the battery will have beeped, and you are ready to comp right out of the box. |

Any RTR or RTC will no be a comp rig out of the box. They will not hang with built rigs if you have any decent size driver pool. They need weight added at the BARE minimum. The Axial RTC is about your only choice, you still need a battery I believe though. |

That is what I mean , it doesn't have to be a RTR . Does the losi come with electronics ? How has it in stock and sells it ? |
