I had one back in the day used it for a year then gave it to a friend who still has it , I just ordered my AX24 and all the brass upgrades, first 24 for my channel, if it is as fun as it looks I will have to get another lol
The performance on this little guy looks fantastic. I agree - this is going to make for some really interesting indoor and outdoor micro crawling. Nice job by Axial. Thanks for the really thorough review!
Cool rig, seems like the 4 wheel steering might take some getting used to, but looks like alot of fun. The small rigs are so nice to have when it’s too cold/rainy/dark to go outside, great video !!!
What a sweet lil ride… My girlfriend and I have a pair of the ECX Tempers that we luv to crawl anywhere and any condition… Now we might just need a pair of these… They’ll fit right in with our pair of SCX24’z…
The AX10 was my intro to RC crawling. I still have it, although there aren't many parts of the original crawler left that haven't been upgraded in one form or another :P
I didn't know Axial is coming out with this! Funny thing is, I just ordered an SCX24 compatible off-brand 'carbon fibre chassis'. Basically it is a twin vertical chassis design, which I'm planning to turn it into a 4WS micro rig just like this one.
I still have the original ax10 kit that I bought at Newred Hobbies in Ocala fl. I was laughed at for wanting to build a crawler when we were racing rc10 and losi buggies. It has a novac rooster goat esc and a 55 turn lathe motor. 6oz of airsoft pellets in the front tires and 4oz in the rear. It goes just about anywhere and it gets lots of attention and events. Another great video and thanks for all you do
Finally someone who has something good to say 😊, for the price ,double steering, on scale with actual real vehicule and a ton of mod coming soon, I like it a lot, and keep up the good work!
Still have my AX-10. Highly modified, but still running great and used by my daughter and her friends while camping here in CO. Just added the AX24. Thanks for the video!
I think this little crawler is really cool. It's not too overly expensive. I'd definitely consider getting one. I'm a car guy and I was so amazed when I discovered full size rock crawling. It's alarming what they can actually do. You drive this little crawler so well, although I knew there had to be a mishap somewhere :). I may try this n put a new plane on hold. Good stuff RC Girl. AirHammer out!!
Haha this was so hard to film, one handed drive and figure out 4wheel steer at the some time!! Definitely fell off the fence many times lol but the final couple takes I got it down! 😀
Hi Rc girl👋, I recently refurbished and upgraded an axial ax10 for my friend from the Breezer RC chain. I can say that the original is a super quality Rc👍. I admit I made it even better😏.. This little 1/24 looks great, hoping that the steering servos are of quality, a rare thing in rtr... nice presentation, have a nice day ✌️
My first foray into micro crawlers was a 1/24 ecx barrage a long time ago & what a TURD that truck was. 😑 I more recently bought a 1/24 axial scx deadbolt for only $119 new & man what a DIFFERENCE! This truck is like they just shrunk down the 1/10 scale version & acts & behaves like a much larger truck. I’ve learned one thing: Axial is the best in the crawler business & I’ll never buy anything else for performance & reliability. This new 1/24 axial with the dual steering for a rtr definitely takes it to the next-level. 🔥
I started crawling with the Wraith back in the day. Still got it. I love these little guys and I didn’t know Axial was putting this out. Definitely will be picking one up to add to the fleet.
I ordered one of these because I am not concerned with fake shovels and mirrors and knew this was going to be something that was more performance-oriented... I do have to say a lot better than I expected as long as you tighten the servo horns up out of the box..... and for climbing simple fix of two 7 G wheel balancing weights on a front Servo
Looks pretty good! I remember 17-18 years ago when the ax-10 came out, it just destroys everything else on the market! I had an HPI W.K. with lot of mods, bc at the time there was no dedicated crawlers! I like my B-17 but this one seems better for indoor. Now I'm looking at the new UTB18 all because of you RC Girl😄👌
For mine I got the metal front & rear with the front overdrive gears. Also the brass beadlock rims & more aggressive tires. Helps a ton with keeping the wheels down. Very fun in stock form too.
I got a AX-10 RTR in ‘07 or ‘08 Wish so bad I would’ve got the kit. I really missed out on getting a Betty body, and with the RTR I had to get all metal links and all that. It got me into 2.2 comp crawling tho. Still have my Losi comp crawler and just refreshed it and got it back into running order.
Some heavy grease or 1000wt silicone on the shock shafts and “pistons” slows down the friction dampers on the 1/24s and they work as well as oil shocks.
Would you compare this with the FMs real wheel steer crawler with 2 speed? Thesev are so similar and even though these tires look cheap they seem to be better than the other one. Great video 🔥🔥
I have both the AX10 KIT AN ARTR, my kit is a near stockish configuration, but my ARTR is nothing close to stock, I was about to buy a 24 gladiator for modding, now ill buy this instead, lol can't wait
There have been a lot of 4ws rtr micro crawlers on the market for about... 10 years? Not that that is important- i think if Axial were smart their body could have been a throwback to the ax10 while simultaniously looking more scale. A scale truck that is bobbed and pinched is not a stretch and factory bodies that do that well are already on the market.
Hello, your videos are very good. I wanted to ask you what density of silicones the shock absorbers of the traxxas trx4 have, I greet you from Argentina!
Just as I got into RC Crawling, the AX-10 came out. Within months I had spent around $3000 on my custom 2.2 rig. Only thing Axial at that point were the axles, lol. That moved to 1:18 and another $3000 rig. And then comps and comps all over the mid-west, and, and............. It was a great time in the hobby. I miss it a lot. This is cool but I'm not into 1:24. I have driven them. Just not wanting of one.
Looks fantastic...but, the overly-high COG, and the front/rear 'worm' gear drive, makes it a "no-go" for me. On (what I'm assuming will, sooner or later, be) a 'plus' side, those companies currently producing aluminum axles with standard steel R&P gears for the SCX24 will probably come out with wider AX24 versions, which will simultaneously help lower the COG.
