| Axial Mini
I've been looking around everywhere. Does anyone know if Axial will come out with a mini to compete with the Losi MRC. I love the mini crawlers but with there only being one manufacture making 1:18 or 1:16 crawlers it is getting a little boring. I would like to see some more. I'm new to the hobby so I don't really know what the supply and demand is for any of the crawlers. Just wanted to see if there were any others that I'm missing.

A mini scaler would be pretty cool.

My boyfriend is getting me a 1/16 crawler off nitrorcx.com he got one of their 1/8 scales a bit ago and loves it. He did a lot of modifications in his. He has a few things he wants to do with mine to make it easier and better for me. This will be my first crawler so I went with something easy and not 300+

I just titled this axial mini because I thought they would be the most likely to make more crawlers. They already make 1.9 wheels and tires. I figured these guys could slap a mini together with scraps laying around. Lol. | |

I like the Losi MRC, my wife has one.. But I would be all over a smaller scale Axial, either a crawler or scale rig..

I know they had planned on it when we originally did the rules for the 1.9 class, but a few years has now passed...

toyota, theres a MOA mini from japan. pretty cool, they sell it on RCmart.com As for my personal thoughts on a axial mini, i personally think that may be a risk for axials bank, since the losi mini has already been out for quite awhile, so my personal thoughts would be that axial would have to take a huge risk to make a mini and then sell it. personally, an Axial mini Scaler may be an option, as Axial makes incredible Scalers, and would not be such a big risk for axial to do since there arent any "mini" scalers.. unless your talking about the new micro from losi. |
