|  Which Crawler?????
Help me decide on my new crawler. I am considering a Losi comp crawler or another axial. I have crawled and loved the axial axles but am very interested in the Losi. Any feedback on a comparison or suggestion?

| Losi Comp
I have a Axial ax10, Venom creeper and Losi comp. out of the box the Losi was, by far way better. Even with quite a bit of mods to the other two and only a spring and tire change to the Losi it out performs the others and would be my pick as the best of the three in the shafty world  |

Are you referring to the Losi Night Crawler or another model ? If you mean the Losi comp Crawler, what's the difference from the night crawler beside missing electronics ? Thanks |

Is the losi comp crawler really better than then the night one to begin ? In other words , I have already a transmitter + receiver then I have a brushed Revo stick ESC ( is it good for crawling ? ) , if I buy a motor for crawling ( HPI 55 ? ) + the Losi comp crawler it would be really better than the night one ? or the difference is not so high thet ethe bight is a better choice to simplify things ? thanks |

| Night and Comp
The differance between the LCC and LNC is like night and day. The night crawler is just a basic crawler with a lot of (cheaper)different parts compared to the comp version. I believe the night version's transmission is not a front & rear dig unit like the LCC. To run the LCC Dig feature you will need a 3 channel radio with 3 position on the 3rd channel and a mini servo to work properly. I'm not familar with your ESC but I have used a 55t motor for a while, just keep the pinion gear under 15t and it shouldn't get hot

Thanks guys for your precious hints. I have few quick questions. Is the 3 channel mandatory ? I assume the third channel is used to block the rear /front axis but considering that I am a crawling beginner I could start without this feature I think ..... dunno Second, could you please suggest me a cheap crawling brushless combo to mount into the comp crawler if I'll choose that one ? Thanks ! Last edited by Emmeth; 03-22-2010 at 04:30 AM. |

| Lcc
The third channel is not a must but you would be missing out on one of the LCC's best features. You may have to make a bracket or link to keep the shifting lever in the center position of the dig unit |

Get the Creeper and with all the money you saved go out and buy something else.

I'm digging my RS10. My buddy bought an Axial just before I got it. He brought it over and got jealous right away. He sold it and bought an RS10. He still had 100 bucks left over to use for mods for it.
