Default Losi/Axial

Just wondering which would be best to get to start with, ever a Losi Night Crawler or a Axial AX10 Scorpian ?
Any ideas?

I just purchased the axial wraith.It crawls like a champ and has a little speed,brushless set up will make it haul ass...Its not building your own rig but its prety damn close for 400 bucks.

The night crawler is a good crawler with little speed.The ax10 has a little more speed and a shit load of after market parts.Axial AX10 is the way to go!!!

thanks for the thead! I'm also new and haven't been around RC since the late 90's when I ran on road oval. This rock crawling thing looks to be very appealing to me!!!

Just a little heads up to my article on why worm drive crawlers (like Losi Night Crawler, Losi Comp Crawler, Kyosho Rock Force, etc) are inherently slow.

Here's my modified Losi crawler...its sits way too high and I need to lower it about an inch....what's the best way? Shorter shocks? What parts do I need?

This thing is so top heavy it rolls over constanly...any help would be great!

I just bought a Losi drop kit for the shocks....hoping that gets the body down some...amd relocating the battery is a good idea as well

How well does the titan 12 turn motor work in a crawler?

12 turn Titans are too high speed and power while too low on torque and efficiency for a crawler.
Might be fine for a racer.
