LuxSlash Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 does anyone has a traxxas summit or an axial scx10? what do you think is better of these 2 crawlers? im thinking of buying a crawler soon and i dont know which one is better..i also watched many videos of the axial scx10 honcho&dingo and the traxxas summit but i really havent got an idea which car i should buy..

HUNTER.P Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 Personally I wouldnt call the summit a crawler. If you want a crawler with speed go for the wraith! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuxSlash Posted April 30, 2011 Author Share Posted April 30, 2011 thanks mate, but the wraith isnt out yet i think. on their site they say it would probably come out in the mid of may. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Summit might have a slower gear but it'll never be a crawler. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RC4ever Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 If anything I would call the Summit a scaler, it's a great truck and all that but if you want a crawler I'd deffinatly go for the Axial Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RC4ever Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 A scaler Have you actually seen a Summit or even a scaler yeah but the Summit is just as far from a crawler as it is a scaler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

53HRA Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 Summit = Big massive kind of crawler monster truck thingy SCX10 = Scaler and crawler They are in some form,two different things - I personally find BIG crawlers not as good to crawler with,for example i think the Summit would be like that even though it's a great truck. Yes it will climb stuff etc,but you won't have the more realistic drive as an SCX10,when that crawls slowly,for example on a 55T motor,it's so much more like the real thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LuxSlash Posted May 1, 2011 Author Share Posted May 1, 2011 i also think that im going to buy me an axial scx10 but i dont know whats the difference between the honcho and thee dingo.and what do you think about the axial wraith which is comming out mid may??is it a cool one? you know, i want an car to go mudding in the forest and so.would the axial scx10 perfect for that? and the wraith??
