!what to buy! Ive been investigating and found that the wheelie king is a decent truck. ive also been looking at the bruiser but to get the whole thing i would need about a 1G and i only have like a 300$ budget what base truck would be a good begginner truck that i would be able to make a bad *** crawler out of that i could like for a while..... Thanks |
With only $300, the Wheely King is looking like your only option to start with. There are some cheap mods that you can do to make it more capable, but to be a true performer you'll need a new chassis, motor and maybe even more. |
ax-10 is a good kit. just build it and add electronics |

yeah i only have about $300 so i think ill go with the wheelie king do 55t motor do the controll arms,lock the diffs,lipo,some rock claws and im cool with the guy at the hobbyshop so ill be like $290 into my budget. later if idont like the preformance ill get a beckworks tuber chasis. thanks for the help guys... |
If you dont already have the lipos then you might look into some elite 3600Mah. That is some money you could save and put into the WK. Remember that your battery is only as good as your charger. |

kit 230. moped esc 30 tq3 35 motor 15 servo 20 battery 25 so that is about 350. get a couple of second hand items and it could be done a little cheaper. plus he would be starting on a much better platform for upgrades. |

Heck, he could go with a TQ2 for around $10, there's $15 off already! Plus, I think run2jeepn still has the 995s on sale for $15, there's another $5. |

wheather to wait a couple weeks to get the scorpion is a good idea but i kinda want something that i can improve and customize,beieng that the scorpion is almost perfect. but ill consider that guys."thumbsup" |
Just remember the stock chassis, and electronics on the WK are junk for crawling. |

I wouldnt say the AX-10 is perfect it still has its performance flaws It is definatly better than the Wheelie King out of the box but there is still much room for improvement. |

:shock:all this info is making it hard for me to decide what to buy....wk or the AX-10...... the diff. in price isnt a big issue. I'm kinda wondering witch one i will have more fun with. I would def. do the crawler mods to the wk if i got it. (can you still jump the wk and rip it arround once its been modded?) will i regret not buying the scorpion in the first place? im thinking i will do more slow speed wheelin/crawlin. damn this is a tough choice!!! |
If you want to crawl, get the ax10. If you want to bash, get a wheelie king. |

Once you lock the difs on the WK, it's not going to bash without replacing them. I bought a WK and I wished I had waited a couple of months for the AX10 to crawl Only thing really to do is buy the AX to crawl then when you feel like bashing, get another cheap RTR truck. |
