The bigger and heavier a scale RC... the movements of the vehicle become more realistic and less twitchy and jerky

[tjenkins]

This. All this. Think every time you or Matt ask what we'd like to see in the scale world, my answer is ALWAYS a 1/5 crawler. Price is reasonable for what it is, off to preorder a green one. So much win.

A scale garage for this will actually be a normal garage, what a beast. Great video !

[rckjeep]

When I started crawling I was using a heavily modified TXT-1. Our issue was servo's and finding good challenging places to crawl with such large rigs. The servo issue is obviously not an issue anymore with so many insanely strong servos these days. The second issue is still viable....in my mind. I'll stick to 1/10 thanks. Hell I think the Redcat is too big so what to I know.

[bcochener]

God, it even sounds like a real rig with all that weight on the tires... gripping and grinding on the rocks. My prediction, this will be HUGELY successful.

you had that thing flexing! Love that terrain you ran it on. Not jealous at all...nope. Very informative and thoughtful as to the cost and benefit.

Imagine how awesome Axial Fest courses for this truck are going to be! I want a trailer to tow my Mojave to bash spots so I dont have to carry it.

[andresguty]

I just wonder if this thing can tow a John Deere gator, a Ford Explorer, 2 grown ups and a French bulldog. I guess we’ll never know.

Great review..that thing is huge..I'm sure the video doesn't give it justice on how big it really is. Just getting back into RC after a long hard road and RC is what keeps me outta trouble. I just came across your channel today..if it matters to you the 5 point 👑 is a gang sign for the Latin Kings..

I think it’s great Axial came out with this 1/6th, just not for me as I’m not into spectrum gear. Would be interested in a kit version 👍

[AUBREYTHOMAS]

I love my 6th scale Crawlers.
I have a set of TSL XL Swampers on my one Willys and the performance increase from those along with the dual stage foams will be epic. My Jeep is nearly 8kg ( yes I'm from a metric land) so dual stage foam is a must

[nickslow]

love the squatted cen truck in the back

[hemistormrc]

I guess we are all running out of space! 🤣

Who remembers the 1/6 Nylint Jeep walmart sold back in 2004 or so??

Funny thing is that i have been out of "Scale" RC for 5 years. A few years before that i was heavily into taking 1/6ish Nikko Hummers, Ford F350, Chevy Avalanches and the like sticking them on custom frames, axles etc etc only to get Poo Poo'd that Big Scale RC will never take off. I will wait for Traxxas to come up with there version.

[speedysteedy]

Looks pretty awesome, now sit back, relax and let’s see what Traxxas brings out.

[visionary_rc]

This would definitely Open up more places to crawl near me, I often see something and say, “that looks sweet!” Only to get there and find out that the rocks are altogether too big and the gaps between them impassable

[thepaddychannel]

What a monster of a truck… My local hobby shop [metro hobbies] has them on pre-order here in Australia for $1750AUD. I would love to add one to the collection but not sure how to hide the truck or the purchase on the credit card from the wife.

[dragonflyjoyride]

I could get on board with this, if the price was lower. Still pretty awesome to see. What type of gears are in the axles and transmission (plastic/metal/pitch)? Are you going to do a full breakdown and look into this vehicle (open axles/trans)?
