Not SCX10 III based like I was expecting, but I'm happy to see that the SCX10 II and straight axles are sticking around

@NaturallyRC 2 года назад

Sounds like you're waiting for a new RBK with 10iii parts and straight axles. I know I am. Fingers crossed.

@phillprice5225 2 года назад

This may be basic, but a good driver will take it anywhere many more expensive models can go. I don't believe that there's as much difference in performance between the big-money models and the more simple ones as we might think. What we often observe is that the best drivers often drive the best (most expensive) models. For more information on this theory, please observe Formula One...

@the_letti0584 2 года назад

Its not about the price but about some technical stuff… portal axles give you better clearance, lower center of gravity gives you better sidehilling angles without flipping over… Some more expensive trucks do perform better but a scx10 II deadbolt wont flip over as easy as an scx10 III Wrangler… same goes for real sport cars, a 120k porsche does perform way better at turns than a 10 million bugatti. The bugatti is faster and has better acceleration but their capabilities dont relie on the price but on the porsche‘s aerodynamics and the bugattis motor

It sucks though, when your friends are all clearing obstacles and you end up rolling down the hill.

@PeterCPRail8748 2 года назад

I fully agree, the only thing your paying for over the basic entry Axial sx10ii or traxxas trx4 is licenced body, locking diffs, two speed trans, and rear or front wheel gear overdrive. I do see a benefit for locking diffs and front to rear drive gear overdrive as it's a 4x4 truck thing. However the two speed trany is waste for me. They are trying to appeal to both scale truck fans and basher crowd. I honestly don't see any real benefit or value in a crawler being able to cruse over 15 or 20 miles per hour. With a proper esu, pinion and spur gear combined with brushless motor you can have great crawling speed modulation and speed approaching 10 to 12 miles and hour without duel tranny. Regardless if I am going to spend 800 to 1000 Canadian on a rtr crawler I rather get a crawler kit from Vanquish or Rc4wd and build something to my liking with my electronics and something that is unique and different, not cookie cutter.

@ToGrimmToWin Год назад

You can get a new element for 40less or a gen 8 v2 for 10 less. For 30 more you can get a trx4 sport or for 50 more a base camp. It needs to

@saturnfivehynrgrc581 2 года назад

SCX10ii is a great platform I agree. In this day/age we are spoiled in RC. Worth the price? I think it is and not everyone may/may not like the looks of the base camp. Either way you're not making a wrong choice. I'd recommend either one. Like button energized.

@peteragnello3268 2 года назад

WHEN IT COMES DOWN TO IT, "LOOKS" ARE EASILY FIXED WITH A BODY AND PAINT OR YOUR CHOICE. I THINK THE ORIGINAL BODY IS REPLACED BY MANY OF US ANYWAY. IT IS PROBABLY THE EASIEST HUGE CHANGE TO MAKE IT YOUR OWN THAT THERE IS.

@Basshertz13 2 года назад

I agree with so many in saying the scx10ii is a great platform, great review by the way Matt . There are so many after market flat chassis’s , parts , wheels , tires, upgrades, bodies , cages . I say let the scx10ii have its glory for a little while longer and who knows maybe the next one will be the wraith with the base camp inerds under it , these big companies think when making these decisions to release something that ok I’ve got a whole container of plastic axles and dog bones , links and anything extra they can throw at it. It sometimes makes a lot of sense for the company not for the consumer wanting the latest and greatest.

@DelightedCuttz Год назад

When I was blessed with the opportunity to crawl for the first time it was with a Deadbolt after that I bought the Axial SCX10 2 Blazer ... thinking bout the getting the whole Axial line.

@jasonbecker4997 2 года назад

Always liked the look of the Deadbolt. I just hate the plastic links. Perhaps if this makes them sell off the old version cheaper, I’ll grab one and do a mild build for a loaner to let friends beat on.

@idworkhard 2 года назад

I specifically sought out to get a used SCX10ii because I didn't like the complexity and expense of buying and owning of the SCX10iii. I think the former is a good balance between cost, functionality and quality. It will be probably become a sought after platform in the years to come.

@mikedeadshot1969 2 года назад

Like many have said this was not what I was expecting, but I am glad to see the SCX10.2 platform sticking around. I have 2 SCCX10 the JK and the Honcho and they are heavily modded and perform very well but have tons invested. That being said I also have 2 scx10.2 XJ one kit and one rtr these have by far been the most capable SCX platform I have used. These for the price and performance have far beat my SCX10's and also my SCX10.3 Wrangler. I do love the Wrangler 10.3 but the initial price is a bit steep when you can get a good 10.2 and put $200 into upgrades and making your own. Now I would like to try a SCX10.3 Basecamp for comparison, but I think I will still prefer the SCX10.2 platforms. Their simplicity and price point just make them better in my opinion and much better aftermarket support.

For the money I would still buy a RedCat Gen 8ii. My Gen8ii, I added the factory light kit, replaced the stock esu and motor. Replaced it with a Hobbywong 1080 and Holmes Hobby Crawlmaster 13t brushed can on day of purchase. All under 550 Canadian. The crawling performance and speed modulation is fantastic, running it on 3s lipos. Axial, Traxxas, and Team Associates entry rtr crawlers are way overpriced with what you get. Especially when Redcat and other Chinese brands are making good performance 1 10th scale crawlers for 75 to 120 US cheaper then the major brand offerings. These brands really need drop the pricing on there basic entry RTRs, especially when you can buy Axials and Traxxas for 100 to 150 off during Christmas sales or manufacture rebate flash sales throughout the year. Proving that are overpricing them deliberately from the get go.

@mattymoe2239 2 года назад

@@scalebuildersguild I am not trying to convince anyone that redcat is better. It's definitely not without its faults and lack of features. A bit less refind in crawling performance compared to other entry 1 10th crawlers. Just pointing out that for the price it comes in at, it has a beautiful licenced body and tires, inner fender wells. You get alot more visual complete scale truck then a entry axial or traxxas tr4. Yes they might perform better but leave alot lacking in bang for buck in my opinion. Yet if I wanted to spend around a grand plus on a crawler. It wouldn't be axial or traxxax. I would get a vanquish kit and build it to my liking.

I just got a brand new SCX10ii Deadbolt. I started driving it today and noticed that both front and rear driveshafts have a good wobble to them. The wobble goes from the output universal joints at the transmission all the way down the shafts. Has anyone else had this issue with the SCX10ii? I have an original SCX10 that never had this problem. Update, I looked closer and the wobble is coming from the transmission outputs, it's not a problem with the actual plastic shafts. The bearings are brand new so I wonder what's causing it? Maybe an aftermarket, allow trans case would fix it.

@visionary_rc7987 2 года назад

Well, I must start by saying that this is my opinion, and people have different opinions. In my opinion, the SCX10 III is a better driving truck out of the box, but with similar upgrades, the 10 II will outperform the 10 III. I think that the 3 gear is a better transmission than the 10 III trans and the 5 gear in the base camp because it puts the motor lower, has bigger bearings, and is has far more upgrades available. I’m more of a straight axle fan, but I will say that I do like the AR45 straight axles more than the AR44, the offset pumpkin is very nice. But in my opinion, the SCX10 II is a overall better truck because 1: it’s less complicated and a lot lighter, 2: I think the trans is better, 3: there’s a lot more aftermarket support, and 4: in my experience a SCX10 II with a few upgrades will outperform a SCX10 III with similar upgrades. All a 10 II really needs is shocks, links (if they are plastic, if the are metal, no real need), and wheels/tires. Shocks make an enormous difference on a 10 II. Plus, I just like the “feel” of a SCX10 II.

Great review. But in my humble opinion, you’re better off spending $150 more and get a Vanquish VS10-4 RTR. You get a lot more vehicle and remote for that matter in the difference in price. As much as I love Axial, Vanquish is setting the standard on what a solid RTR should be without breaking the bank.

Obviously, but this review came out months before the VS4-10 RTR existed!

Almost double the views on this vid versus your Vanquish vid. Could that be the market talking??

@scalebuildersguild 2 года назад

I'm not sure why I'm getting more views on this over the Vanquish, except maybe because I posted the Axial video after the Vanquish? Thanks for watching!

I just got a deadbolt had it for a week when I turn the wheels, the axle shakes but when I remove the wheels, it seems perfectly fine. Would I need to upgrade my axles for that not to happen

@scalebuildersguild Год назад

Sounds like you’re at the physical limit of the axle’s dog bones. You could try upgrading to a CVD to get more steering.

The more options the better of course however... being someone who loves their 10.2... i think the 10.3 + TRx4 are better starter options.. even for someone new to the hobby. I'd say save a little more money and it'll be worth it. 10.2 drawbacks in my opinion: - Stock gears / shimming the ar44 - shocks, leaky.. leaky leaky... Most do but.. so far after 5 kits..... so far trx4 gts and axial 10.3 shocks have been great. - plastic panhard Nice video! good job.

Keep the price down?! For the features provided, and the fact that this chassis has been out as long as it has, it needs to be reflected in the price (AT LEAST $100 cheaper or Axial needs to include metal links and universal joints). People are being hyper-critical for sure but Axial has hardly inspired confidence with this 'new' release. However, considering the target audience and proven performance of this rig, and the seperate esc and receiver setup, this crawler isn't all bad. A good value, though, hardly!

It's still the same reliable truck a starter rig should be. My problem is that Axial has done revisions to other chassis without publicizing it. This has nothing new, just "updated" (relabeled electronics) electronics. Yet the price went up by $30 USD after it already had an increase this year. The honcho left the market at 349.99 and this is only $10 short of that. The 10.2 platform is my favorite, but this should've been moved to the 10.3 line for a refresh.

If I had a friend bang on my door with this truck and a big ole smile saying he’s been watching me enjoying my trucks, and just bought this today. I would smack him in face put this pos back in box, return it that second. And order the new Vanquish. Friends don’t let friends get raped by Horizon

Oh wow! How do you REALLY feel 😂?

Of COURSE it’s project worthy…selfishly I’ll take any opportunity to encourage you to entertain me with another awesome project! 👍✌️

@vintagerc9173 2 года назад

Axial should have upgraded to make This competitive With Element R/c Trucks! Dog bones 🦴 And plastic links? Lame lame lame!

Thank goodness Axial brought these back, I would much rather have a deadbolt over a base camp any day.

@danielroberts9327 Год назад

Bought this one yesterday and done everything I wanted it todo out of the box out performed my 2 buddy’s trx4 sport and all the other $500 dollar plus traxxas crawlers they all said “they got ripped off buying traxxas”

@scalebuildersguild Год назад

Glad to hear it! Have fun!

Scx10ii still one of the hobbies favorite.

@Quitmotorsports 2 года назад

I think the price point is a bit off compared to the basecamp…plastic links and cheap electronics….still a pass from me, especially since the og scx10.2 deadbolt was recently on sale for something like $180?

@scalebuildersguild 2 года назад

Fair enough!
