Wraith, TH, or Wrexo

[RebelRat]

Ive been out of land RC for a few years. Im wanting a crawler/go fast rig. The Twin Hammers seems to fit the bill but I really like the Wraith (ive driven a few of them). The Wrexo intigues me but seems pricey to complete it.

Which one would you guys recommend? And why?

i enjoy running my TH alot it is a blast , they have there weak points but still fun .

i don't own a wraith ( so to speak , i am building a sexo ( not sure on the name ) i have driven my sons wraith and alot of the people in my local group have wraiths and love them ( all of them are in various stages of upgrade )

the wrexo is an interesting cross breed they seem to work great they handle well in the faster portions of a course , but they are a little more difficult in the rocks ...you have to approach the climbs a little differently .
and they are a bit pricey to build ( but so is a wraith and so is a TH )

now another option is what i am building but it is mostly custom fitting of different rigs into one it uses an exo terra cage , a wraith lower frame rail section with skid , wraith trans and wraith axles . the cage is shorter in height than a wraith , it sits a bit lower than a wraith with the same wheel base and width .

well good luck with whichever way you decide to go , and welcome back to the land rc side of the hobby

I'd say Wraith, can be crawler and go fast, much better quality and design than Twin Hammers Horizon Hobby junk (where you replace everything). Wrexo is cool, but takes lots of parts, more money and it doesn't steer as tightly as Wraith...but it would be my second choice.
