Default Which is better

I am wanting to know which of the two rock crawlers are better. A losi night crawler or an axial scx10 trail honcho. I just wanted your opinions on what you think.

wow, well, those are 2 completly differn't classes. the losi is better for comp style/rock crawlin, and the honcho is better for trail riding and mild rock crawlin.

what is it you are looking to do? that might help better. since you're comparing 2 completly differn't classes of crawlers.

I already have an axial ax10 scorpion rtc. I don't plan on doing any comps, just some backyard crawling.

You can't go wrong with a honcho.They are a lot of fun.

plus the worm gears in the losi require more maintenance and are noisy.

X3

The Losi night crawler is more of a comp style crawler. The SCX10 more off road. I water proofed my SCX10 Honcho and its more of mud buggy then anything

And the SCX10 you can go completely go scale on, which is so cool and so fun and they are so addicting

You either want "scale" driving or "comp" driving, though with some work and body style both can do the opposite style decently.

If you have a lot of rock, steep grading, or major obstacles...I would choose a comp crawler.

If you want to run on trails, or out in the woods, then the honcho would be a better option.
