Default New to Crawlers, want a scale

Hi guys,

I'm new to Crawlers. I like RC in general though and really enjoy the building process. I would like to build a Scale RC scrawler, but do not have any parts at the moment. I'm not concerned about being the latest and greatest. Just want something to play with.

Would I be best off (cheaper) to go with a kit of some sort or to gather parts from here and there?

It all seems overwhelming at this point and I don't know where to start.

Thanks!

Having just bought one yesterday and spending a good part of the day on the assembly, I can say that I think you REALLY should go with the Axial SCX-10. It can be had for as little as $210 online. The thing is pretty sweet....and comes in pieces so you can put it together
