Why buy rip-off products? People put their time/money into designing/producing trucks for us of good materials with product support and spare parts. Support the people/companies that actually do for us and care about producing good quality! Last edited by Natedog; 12-13-2019 at 04:03 PM. | |

That transmission looks AWFULLY high. I might still be new to crawlers, but even I can tell that COG is going to be WAY too high. ~ More peace, love, laughter & kindness would make the world a MUCH better place |

That looks like a regular old scx10 3 gear trans with a spur gear cover. The motor sits quite low in it actually Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk | |

Honestly how can you accept the enduro or vs4-10 and then say this is a copy? Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk |

No different than the multiple other manufacturer’s offerings Vaterra, HPI, G-Made, Element, RedCat, Traxxas, Vanquish, SSD, etc... Does Axial offer a ladder framed rig with portal axles? Would I buy it? Probably not. But I don’t see any real issue with it. |

Is it just me or are the tires on backwards?

What kills me are the bumpers - which is the front and which is the rear? Seems that they are giving you a pair of front bumpers, one that would work well for a Defender, and one for something like a Jeep: |

Has any one bought one of these chinesium bumper stingers? Can they take a hit at all or do they just deform? Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk |
