It was good to meet up with someone else instead of heading out on my own again.

Shame about that knuckle breaking.

Both having the same frequency crystals didn't help matters either.

Next time down I'll bring the TLT I think. Might be better suited to them rocks.

Nice to have met you James

The Txt-1 will climb over rocks but it will not climb steps in stock.

mine is highly modded and it will still not climb steps because my links catch alot.

but i would highly Recommend You to get A Txt-1 in my apinion.

Reasons

Can be modified easy.
fun to drive.
Doesn't break much.
But most of all if u put your heart and soul into it you will have a good rock crawler.

Or maybe go for a Clodbuster


Hope this helps

Seriously, can any crawler climb stairs? You just can't get enough grip to pull a crawler up on carpet.

A TXT is basically a clod size TLT. So to start off with, TXT is a better crawler, than a clod.
