Has anyone seen this crawler, looks identical to an axial . https://youtu.be/1tyM3wcu4Kc a video of it. Would this be considered a clone? I wouldn't know that's why I ask the question . |

That thing actually looks pretty good. I'm interested in seeing where it comes in price-wise. That all in 1 esc/receiver is a bit of a letdown, but at least it's got a 3 wire servo so you don't have to upgrade the electronics to dump the servo.

I guess we now know where all the axial molds ended up. I wouldn't be at all surprised if the market became flooded with copy cat axial parts.

Looks like it has a CMS and beefy links with traxxas ends and a Titan motor. So it's far better than the original. |

What's the price point? Donor or loaner.

| Re: Remo hobbys Does the price point really matter at this stage of scale vehicles. Even if it was on the cheap side, much like the redcat is, the size of the pumpkin really takes it out of the donor side. Why put that much effort into a project when smaller pumpkins are available now. The rig is half way to being the improvement of the scx10ii. Unless that price is really good, I wonder why they didn't take it all the way. Maybe its just the business model. Make something sell it fast and don't worry about sustainability? Maybe a loaner or starter rig. Last edited by Ditchrat; 09-28-2017 at 11:26 AM. |

Only 40 left at this price!!!! LOL. But at $150, I’m considering it as a parts donor rig. https://www.gearbest.com/r-c-cars/pp_009752113050.html |
