| Re: More Axial rumors.... SCX6?
When I first saw Josh had a video about this, then Matt, I was like meh, but I'll watch because both those guys are solid. After watching I'm even more disinterested. Strike 1: Another Jeep Body Strike 2: It's 6th Scale Strike 3: It's 6th Scale on 3s max I seriously just don't enjoy large scale although I wish I could. For me, Having driven several and never owning after driving, the experience is always the same. They're great when you can find a good area to run them, but those are few and far between. I find this one even more limited. I just can't think of many places around where I live that this would be fun. I have no idea what this market will bring for Axial, but I know on Facebook Marketplace there are more used X-Maxx's for sale than anything else. And according to the hobby shops I've spoken with around me they aren't anywhere near their biggest sellers. In the end, I have no idea though, it isn't my company or my money. I certainly don't hold anything against Axial/Horizon for releasing it. But I would like the SCX10.3 Straight Axle as a kit with the dig parts in the box instead of RTR over this. I was looking over the Axial Bronco last week and really like it, but I would be ditching all of the stock electronics, wheels, and tires immediately. That's just a good value proposition for me. |

Same with the 1/6 Axial I'd guess... Fun! But maybe not as much fun for many. I'll take it as a collectable... Around for awhile then disappear? Hmmm... I think it will be a rich guys toy too. A toy in the garage with the Vette and the Raptor lol. I will guess there is an out of stock period for a while after the first wave. It will be curious how many are posted up here. RTR's seem to lack relevance on this site. The RTR Ectos & Broncos seem to be rare. The SCX6 too? No doubt great builds happen here. | |

Just giving you a hard time... I would love to own the SCX6, but I really need to unload my 'overstock' of rc stuff, 1/8 scale fuelies included. West Desert Wheeler has a good vid wheelin' the SCX6, pretty competent IMO for 25 lbs, but it does fall hard and loud. https://youtu.be/-bDLfi5tqdA | |

I wonder how long until all the Chinese companies make pot metal knockoffs of these axles Seriously though, I wonder how much the axles themselves would be...they'd make a pretty cool custom build. |

| Re: More Axial rumors.... SCX6? I just went to Axials website and it looks like you could piece together a set for around $270 without the bearings and knuckles. Maybe a complete axle set around $250-$300? I am very Interested in getting some of these lol.

Hey guys..... Long time no talk(read).......! My take on this, WOW, and yes! A 6th scale crawler on the trails, yes sir. Im glad axial(HH) made this, just like when traxxas came out with the trx4,axial knocked this out the park. You're gonna seen this go main stream just like how the RedCat racing 64 went. This will blow up. All the hop-ups, again gonna be a whole lotta hop ups. I said to myself those axles are gonna be used on the smts. All the builds with this thing that y'all would do with this! Some say no, but in reality we all want a bigger crawler, make it a kit and it's on! I see a whole lotta jeep guys buying this thing.........lololol So can't wait. |

| Re: More Axial rumors.... SCX6? If the kit runs $500-$600, I'd have a hard time deciding between this and the new Phoenix. Big scale never really interested me, but this, has completely changed it. I have a new fed urge for this behemoth.

I'm in the same boat. I had been making mental space for the SCX 6 until that new Vanquish dropped. I've been wanting a portal project now that the worm is done, and this seems like it's my next purchase. s | |
