And yes, they for factory wheels perfectly (They Also have brass versions that work with the CR-24, Proline Ambush, Trekker, Mini Gelande, Carisma MSA-1E, ECX Temper, and WLtoys. I've tested the various versions on my trucks and they all fit. Sent from my LGMP450 using Tapatalk |

Btw all this talk about "scale size" this is a 1/24 ZJ compared to 1/20 ZJ IMO most of the 1/24 micros are closer to 1/20 as far as wheels and chassis. Sent from my LGMP450 using Tapatalk |

I know this is the scx24 thread but it kicked off my want to buy a small rc and I am sort of new to the hobby (big as a kid but way older now) and am on my way to get an ecx roost 1/18! Excited as I usually am frugal and don't treat myself to much. Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk |

Got my 1/18 roost and want to thank the forum for all the helpful tips. I will be getting the scx24 next after this so I feel its ok to keep posting in this thread. This has settings to keep it slow inside without having to be super careful on the trigger so it is better indoors after playing with it than I thought. Took outside and holy crap it really does fly! It gets up and through! Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk |

@ BIGWORM I thought it 'needed' the rally light bar until I saw yours. That looks good. The reason I mentioned it feeling wobbly I think is due to those tires. They gripped really well where I was using them. But frequently when my throttle control wasn't perfect and the rig was at much of an angle... it would bounce a little then effortlessly tip over. I just think I need more time with my first ever 1/24 crawler. Gotta say that it did much better than my buddy's GelandeII the other day but he's got a heavy die-cast body on his that's hindering it's stability. I maybe wrong but I feel that some weight down low as well as maybe better shocks might benefit the performance of this rig if using the OEM tires/ wheels. I've got Losi micro crawler bead locks and Rok Lox Micro Comp tires coming... not sure if they're going to work but hope so. I'll prob keep the included body on it for now but will prob remove the light bar and also paint the interior flat or satin black as well as paint the underside black. Few pics from her first outing... |

I've already taken to modding this thing a bit and I'll post up some pics later but I'm wondering if anyone has found a manual for the AE-6 ESC/Receiver? It doesnt seem to be up on Axial's site. My battery has a bad cell it seems so I'm just wanting to confirm the ESC's settings. It does have a LVC cut off but if I let it go all the way till it does shut off the 1 cell is super low like 2.8v vs the other at 3.6v. Its been this way the whole time so I really need to contact Horizon. EDIT: I just checked the internal resistance and its crazy high! one is at 109 the other is 87 I also had a front dogbone slip its pin halfway out, they arent fixed in place and can move around. After it slipped out it was stopping the front axle from rotating. If this happens again I may consider using some CA to keep the dogbone pins in place.

My son and I had a friendly competition in the backyard. He had his SCX24 and I had my CR24. I wasn't able to do a tenth of what he was doing, so I grabbed my SCX24 and we had fun until it got dark. I absolutely love these little guys. It's incredible how capable they are, especially after seeing my beloved CR-24 be put to absolute shame. Photo is my 1/10 bridge with an extra stick in the middle that allows the scx24 to drive over. |

I simplified the roll cage 3D printed a straight bar for up front to replace the light bar Moved around the electronics, lowered the body 4.5mm and swapped to some heavier wheels. Its driving much more like a 1/10 crawler like I know it, its my first mini. I did an bunch of other tweaks, build thread here Whittling on a SCX24 Last edited by HumboldtEF; 06-02-2019 at 11:32 PM. |

Mine arrived today, right out of the box I had to do something about the bouncing suspension, a little gob of Green Slime on the shock shafts went a long way to getting rid of the bounce. I also swapped out the springs for some micro T springs, medium front, soft rears. The springs aren't the correct diameter but a little persuasion to open up the ID of the spring and they will fit and make a HUGE dif. over the stock ones. Just my .02 cents worth...lol
