Hey everyone, I am pretty sure I want to get a micro crawler. Do all of you get into these as much as the bigger more capable ones? I'm thinking I can set up a coarse in the basement since I don't do anything else down there. I see some people get board with them pretty quick. About ready to pull the trigger. just looking for some input. Thanks

i have only had mine about a month and have all ready started building a course in my loft.
i have also brought allot of things which are show bellow.
i think that these crawlers can my modified so much that it will take a long time for you to get bored a if you do then just turn it into a scaler

My micro was my first crawler and I have by no means got bored with it, in fact I am into it so much I am going to try and make a few odds and ends for it if I can ever get my tools out of storage. Even considering buying another to make a scaler.

With a little work they can be made very capable little crawlers and are cheaper to work on than their bigger brothers. Don't get me wrong though, you can easily dump a small fortune into these if you are not careful but that is true of any hobby grade R/C.

The main thing that sold me on them was the fact I can use it indoors, they can be used in a minimal amount of space. Also the fact that there is a good aftermarket for them and working on them yourself isn't to difficult.

Well I'm going to order one this week. Cant beat the price and I might turn it in to a scaler. Depends what I see for bodies out there. Once it comes in it's free mod time, I'll have plenty of questions..
