Default Can somebody recommend me a rock crawler

I have a 1/18 brushless truck right now and I'm looking for a rock crawler truck.... I've been looking at the Losi Mini Rock Crawler and I was just wondering if that rock crawler is good or not. Also, is there any other recommendations??

I don't have a losi mrc yet but from what i have read it is a very nice crawler. If you want to go 10TH scale then i would get a artr axial ax10 it is a great truck already has a lot of hop ups and crawls great with alot of aftermarket support when you decide to push the truck farther.

if you want something for indoors crawling as well as outdoors and dont already have any radio gear, the losi mrc is your best choice.

you also cant go wrong with the axial artr, but its more for outdoors and comp crawling.

i have both, and dont regret buying either of them.

I have a ax10 rtr, it was a better choice for me, because it had every thing, except the battery and charger. The Losi and the artr are very good as well. You will have to buy electrics for the artr,(i.e motor esc parts like that) It's just what's better for you.

start with the losi MRC. if you are a 18th scale guy you will like the truck. but it will lead to more so be prepared to get a 2.2 next. haha its fun.

I have the Axial RTR, love it minus the small cheap plastic pieces I've broke.. but i was also brand new to the hobby when I got the truck.

Both the Axial and the Losi are great choices. If you're thinking of competing, the Axial is a better bet, as the 2.2 class is by far the most popular one. The 1.9 will likely pick up some next season as more people get smaller rigs.
