That was a really good video! Makes me wish it weren't snowing here. Maybe I need to move to cali?! That Jeep looked like it hooked up great compared to the Yota.

What rims are being run on that Axial Jeep?

Jaynen · 03-14-2008, 12:26 PM

Actually the Yota had better traction on his RC4wd Rock Stompers than the Jeep with the RC4wd Rock Crushers.

Both of us are running Createacrawler beadlocks from the guy of the same name over on scale4x4rc.org

The Bruiser's turning radius is not as sharp and his approach angle was slightly not as good which were his only issues. As the jeeps suspension is not dialed in like the Yota and was not flexing really.

Man that was a great video , I didnt care for the music either , but thats just personal opinion. If that was your first try at editing , you kick it's ass. Great job , I loved the AX jeep , sweet rig.

Jaynen · 03-14-2008, 07:17 PM

honestly wasn't sure what kind of music goes with crawling ;p

seems like most like hard metal, lol...I prefer something that is serious and has a slower tempo to correspond with the tempo of the driving...Its a challenge to find that song AND find one the right length...

Jaynen · 03-14-2008, 09:41 PM

I had another CD in mind but didnt want to get it out of the truck and rip it because I could not find mp3s ;p

pantablo · 03-14-2008, 11:01 PM

Don't worry about it. Its your first...there will be many more.

hijack · 03-14-2008, 11:05 PM

is there a build up on the jeep ? im just curious what all its running.

pantablo · 03-14-2008, 11:30 PM

there's sort of a build thread...started out as a range rover sport bodied axial ax10 with xtrail chassis. That inspired my rover actually.
Its been through several bodies but its still over the same ax10/xtrial chassis.

Jaynen · 03-15-2008, 01:03 AM

To some extent I got tired of posting build threads even tho I like posting pictures.

I'm very much a newb and really have not done anything amazing

I have a thread tracking my current plans over on scale4x4 but as Pablo mentioned its a fairly standard AX10 Kit with X-trail chassis.

The wheels are Creaeacrawler beadlocks and the tires are RC4wd crushers

The body is a Fastlane R/C from Toys R Us

TOYUTAH · 03-16-2008, 12:37 AM

Jaynen · 03-16-2008, 12:43 AM

ax10 is wide yes + the wheels

pantablo · 03-16-2008, 02:08 AM

Interested in going this coming wednesday or thursday again?

Jaynen · 03-17-2008, 11:30 AM

Yes which day?

ussprinceton2004 · 03-22-2008, 07:08 AM

great job!

the body height and the overall width on my Jeep is similar to the white Jeep in the vid. I'm glad to see similar looking Jeeps in action in SCALE videos.

keep them coming!

MasterShake44 · 03-22-2008, 08:07 AM

Great video! You should make this an on-going series shot at different sites. I would defanitely watch! Thanks for the production.

Brainstain · 03-23-2008, 09:19 PM

Jaynen · 03-23-2008, 11:29 PM
