Not that im an expert or anything but i have never even heard of that crawler. If i were you i would look into maybe building a venom creeper as they are reasonably priced or maybe getting a used rigg/roller off ebay or here.

Axial Scorpion or Losi Mini Rock Crawler are both capable crawlers right out of the box (rtr also) with the free mods and are both around 200-230 bucks new and even cheaper used. IMO with anything i buy, I make sure its a well known brand not only for replacement parts/upgrades but quality as well. I bought a losi mini RC just to mess around with in the yard and now ive got over a grand into it and my other RCs just collect dust ><.

| http://www.rcplanet.com/Axial_AX10_S...p/axi90011.htm A TON of upgrades for this rig and will be easy to find parts as well as setup/build threads on this forum and videos on youtube. If money isnt a issue there are diff ones you could look at but this is decent for the price. There is also the Losi Night crawler but it is a little bit more money. http://www.rcplanet.com/Losi_Comp_1_...p/losb0104.htm And i am not sure if you are interested in Scalers but theres this as well. http://www.rcplanet.com/Axial_1_10_SCX10_p/axi90016.htm Last edited by megaherz; 07-31-2010 at 07:45 PM. |

| HPI Wheely Kings!
You can get a pair of wheely kings for the price of one Ax 10 crawler kit. The WK is considerably less expensive then the Axial stuff if your looking for good times in the back yard, and still have a possibility of modding/customizing. Many Traxxas parts will also work on these. Your imagination is your only limit.  |

i just picked up an rs 10 and i couldnt be any happier. with a few tweaks it performs great, handles most thing i can throw at is and i love the moa design. its great having no torque twist. the truck is high quality and i would recommend it to anyone.
