| No. I would never buy a crawler king rtc again. I don't have an axial but thats what to go for from what most people say and i've seen them perform very well stock and nearly stock. No Crawler King is my vote |

| What type of crawling are we talking here? General bashing or competition? 250$ wk will get you crawlin like a 2 yr old. Not too good for comps though high cg. |

it certainly does not 'crawl out of the box', as the ads claim. Plan on a servo-on-axle (SOA) conversion, deeper gear set, and possibly some tire foam tuning. Here's my writeup on doing so | |

| it's true,it doesn't crawl out of the box.the first thing to do is to mount the servo on the axle,otherwise it doesn't steer good at all,once u done that u can do the rest of the mods |
