what should i get wraith or honcho

[Hawkfan223]

Hi i am new here and new to this scaler stuff. i was woundering witch rig should i buy a wraith or honcho? just curious witch one is more customizable and has more upgraded parts for and the funnest to play with. any info will be much appreciated thanks!

[theloudone]

they both have pretty much infinite upgrades.they're both equally fun.

[Hawkfan223]

ok thanks for the response iv been looking at lots of wraiths on here and axial scx10's. likeing the wraiths alot!!

[SwampDawg]

yea, the wraith is exploding in new parts from vendors!
im most impressed by VP and STRC so far

[theloudone]

the wraith is a huge money pit. the honcho wont be as expensive when you go all out with upgrades

[SwampDawg]

tell me about it ahahah!
so far i have 1k into mine and its not done yet!

The SCX-10 is a good crawler and gives you a lot of scale body options. The Wraith can be built fast for bashing on the trails or slow for crawling. Either one is a lot of fun so you can't go wrong. The way this hobby works, you will end up with both anyway.

[Hawkfan223]

both sound like alot of fun to build trying to decide still thanks for all info everyone

I think starting with a honcho and adding wraith axles and 2.2's sounds like a lot of fun. Maybe even brushless.

I bought a honcho couple of months ago and i love it! I love how they crawl, how they look and how easy the maintence is. But now i got my eyes on a wraith! I just like how they look lol.

Do that ^ I did and absolutely love it.

This all sounds very familiar to me. Started out with a Dingo 4 months ago, bought an AX10 2 monts ago and just ordered a Wraith chassis last week. Wouldn't surprise me if the wraith axles will follow ;)

Gotta love this hobby! I ended up with 2 Honcho's and 2 Wraith's

once the wheels start turnning the possibilities r endless.... I started with an AX10 and now have a table full of 3/16" tube, benders, files and a bunch of parts for a custom tuber build on wraith axles. havent even got it finished and my brain has already started thinking about the next build

[theloudone]

or you could make a wroncho.

[Meatwad]

Or get em both and swap axles. Probably would've been cheaper if I did that in the first place

[lets go jeep]

new to the scale stuff hahaha you've had 3 or 4 wraiths and many scx10's who are you trying to fool

[kicker]

I've got a Wraith and ordered an SCX10 which i'm waiting to be delivered.

They can be money pits if you want them to be. Most upgrades come about due to how the cars are treated. My buddy has spent $500 and i have spent $50.

I am really looking forward to the SCX10 as i love the scale look. I bought them primarily for mud bashing so both cars will do that just fine. Hence it's really a cosmetic decision.

I got a Honcho and I love it. Not loving how much it costs to upgrade but hey better that than fast food. ;) hehe

I am thinking of going Wroncho with it. But, i wouldnt mind having a second RC to let my bro use when we go hiking.
