Default TRX4 Sport Kit or SCX10II Raw Builder's Kit?

This has probably been asked a hundred times already but which one would you get and why? I've been an owner of the XJ SCX10II RTR in the past so I kinda know what to expect from the Axial kit.

You can't beat the TRX4 for value and performance. My friend and I each bought one. With some minor mods they are head and shoulders better crawlers than the competition. Our other 3 friends run Axial's. Not boasting, just sayin'.

I'm hoping 3 weeks...
This project was started in June 2018. So we are at the very end now.

TRX-4 Sport Kit hands down! Unless there is another option as SSD has stated!

Got to drive an Axial Cherokee RTR and a Sport TRX-4 back to back recently. The TRX-4 just ate up everything while the Axial struggled and was ultimately more frustrating than fun IMO. Portal axles, steering angle and authority, overall balance/weight give the TRX-4 the edge.

What! Can’t wait.

Hoping for a nice scaler platform with forward mounted motor for interior space, and SSD quality.

This is awesome! Can’t wait to see what it is.


To the OP, if you don’t already have a trx4 then go for the sport kit.

Get the 10.2 next.

I agree. TRX is best straight outta the box. Plus, aftermarket seems to grow every day.

More I’m into the hobby the more I appreciate scale. It’s why I like Axial with its axles. Also with the trx4 sport I’d want a licensed body...
Food for thought...
