I definitely agree. Like I've said before. Make the axle width the same as the McRC but with a METAL spool diff, same size wheels and hexes and a scale chassis and it will be a hit. Top it off with a 1/20 honcho body,seperate brushed micro esc and the new 2.4ghz rx,8 hole micro beadlocks,good suspension & ill buy at least a pair. Then a year later wider sumo width axles with an offset pumpkin ;)

I'm pretty sure i'd buy more axial micros than I have bought losi and redcat micro combined! Thats quite a few...

If this does go down, please oh please make the spool diffs and with a respectably low gear ratio to them. Thats my only complaint about the redcat micro axles, they have highway gearing.

I'm gonna say I be good for a couple axial micro crawlers and while we are on the subject as soon as I saw the new EXO I said oooo I want a 1/24 micro EXO.
now that would be cool. Get on it axial!!

Definitely would like to see Axial make a micro. I'd make it longer than the Losi and a bit wider with taller and slightly wider tires (that bolt to the same size wheel as the McRC). Give us dig and 4WS options and lots of reasonably priced aluminum goodies and a few motors, and I think it would be a hit. Losi seems to be the only company making micro anything (except Kyosho), so it's really an untapped market that could get a lot of growth.

I like the 1/24 scale of the Losi Micro, I have one and I enjoy playing with it I've got it working pretty well. But I don't think we're going to see Axial jump on the band wagon. The little trucks didn't take Losi were they wanted to go so why would Axial jump in? Just asking.

Well true, but losi bombed with the Micro when it was so stiff out of the box it would tip over. I know its small and a toy but why would they sell them with such stiff springs, I could care less I dont comp never been to one and just enjoy messing around at home, half the fun is modding and building. I think they actually did good it will be sad when they go away.

I just bought another Mrc for a project, be cool to have a Trekker but I refuse to spend extra money on a later model vehicle and they fail to market them with BND, they sell mostly the crap with BND and dont give the option for new stuff.

Traxxas needs to get in the crawling community too!! The Summit is more of a basher than a crawler! They need 1/10,1/16, and a 1/24 crawler!! It would be awesome and waterproof too!!! Traxxas needs to make a crawler!!!

I totally agree that Traxxas needs to jump into the crawler scene!
Honestly I'll stick with Axial but it'd be cool to see what Traxxas comes up with!!!
