Popular Post Andy20xe Posted May 22, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted May 22, 2020 So I decided I needed another project and was looking for scx10 s. Being on a tight budget, didn't really find anything. So I decided to try a Chinese clone off ebay. Was delivered today with a cheap 20kg servo and my Cherokee body got delivered yesterday. This is just a budget build for the kids to use for trails nothing serious. Chassis as it was delivered [/url] Some wheels I already had and got the bumpers fitted [/url] I've half fitted the body just need to sort a rear mount or make one [/url] Just need my sec to turn up and then it can go on a test drive! To be fair I'm actually quite impressed with the quality for the money. Total for the build so far is £140 and that's when the ESC turns up so not so bad. . 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rob bark Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 Looking good dude!! I keep seeing these clone chassis on eBay I'm rather tempted but I worry they might end up breaking a bit too easy!!Sent from my ONEPLUS A6003 using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjh23 Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 (edited) Looking good 👍 I built one of these for my 4yr old to learn on, they aren’t all that bad really, I have done a few little changes, I put scx10ii shock hoops on and swapped the c hubs side to side so I could fit a Panhard rod. and I’ve got some axial shocks to go on it too BUT ha ha my lad has broken both front cvd’s within the space of about 2 weeks, that could be down to him going over everything flat out and crashing a lot. ive got my eye on some different axles foR it now though. Be interesting to see what you think OH I trimmed away the receiver box too, and fitted a different battery tray across the chassis instead of going front to rear Edited May 22, 2020 by jjh23 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stimpy Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 Looking good Andy! Rear mount? Did I not find one for you? Or do you mean something else? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ye the one you included is for the scx10.2, but this uses MK1 style mounts! Sorted now though just drilled our the shock hoops so the ones you sent fit. Thanks for including them. Hope an ESC turns up today and can finish putting it back together. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barnettgs Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 (edited) Looking good! Hard to beat it for the price. Great option for those on limited budget or wanting a 2nd crawler with their wife permission 😉 How is drivetrain going?

Great option for those on limited budget or wanting a 2nd crawler with their wife permission 😉 How is drivetrain going? All seems ok from just pushing it around! As soon as my ESC arrives I'll do a proper test! There's a bit of play in front hubs, but I knew about that already. Otherwise it's worth the money I think.
