How much do u want to spend? Do you plan to upgrade? Axial Is the way to go regardless weather u want a real "crawler" or trail rig etc etc Little more $ upfront that some other brand such as red cat etc BUT deff well worth the extra $ IMO Plenty of upgrades avail and would be easy to resell if you decide to upgrade to bigger and better! |

These are my choices and what I think the base functions seem to be. Plan on $400 for an RTR. Wraith - Crawler/Rock racer/Scaler SCX10 - Crawler/Scaler TwinHammer - Rock racer/Crawler/Scaler Gmade R1 - Crawler/Scaler |

start going thru the rig specific threads and see what catches your eye. then read , research and ask questions , that should help you narrow it down. Asking "what should I get" will get you a bunch of different opinions. My suggestion is Axial, cant go wrong with one of the best.  |

I was asking the same question and ended up with a ridgecrest. 300 or so + battery and charger. performs pretty good but if your interested in scale at all I'd say go for the scx-10. also I'd try and find a local comp to go to before you choose. I went to one a few days after I got my ridgecrest and ended up kicking myself for not getting an scx-10. I had no interest in the scale trucks as they sat on the shelfs... but after seeing what the EPA guys did to they scalers it looked like alot of fun.

I really like the Wraith. Its great truck all the way around. I had a Novak 13.5 system in mine and it screamed...regret selling it though.

I'd say just get a scx10 you will not be disappointed, I got two of them they are awesome... I also have a trailfinder2, a bruiser, and a twin hammers, but out of them all thescx10 is the cheapest to run and parts too, performs well too
