You were one of the main resions for me to get interested in crawling, thank you

Would like to see how the redcat gen 8 v2 stacks up against these.

Just upgraded the servo and added lights to my TRX4 Chevy Blazer, now it climbs like a mountain goat. Crawling through 3 inches of snow, sun going down, headlights blazing, all alone in an Oregon forest, doesn’t get any more Zen than that.

I know it's not a Blazer style body but I think it would have been cool to see the Gen 8 in this shoot out.

Ive been beating on my trx4 for 4 years now, it has plenty of upgrades, but is always the most impressive out of my fleet, I have owned everything from a redcat e10, to gmade komodo, vattera ascender, scx10ii, custom ar60 builds, still keep going with the trx4

Would have been nice to see the Gen8 Axe edition included in this shootout, and have them all use the same tires to really reveal their powers/weaknesses. Maybe an opportunity for you to include it in another continued shootout, and end with a final 3rd shootout between the top four scale performers from the shootout.

Agree, that Cross is quite a performer but also the ugliest, they really messed up on the body proportions, Gmade shows how to do a good looking unlicensed body, don't need another trail truck but very tempted to get a Buffalo

I appreciate your method of evaluating the crawlers. An excellent way to compare. I'm new to the hobby, but fast becoming a fan of your channel. Thanks for doing this and sharing.

Big fan here.. this channel got me in to this hobby.👍🏼

Love your shootouts. Really interesting how the new rigs stack up against TRX4\10.3. The value to performance ratio is always what I look for and Cross RC seems to have hit a sweet spot. Looking forward to catching up with the rest of your footage. 👍🏽

Great video as always. You are the reason I got into crawlers with content like this!

Nice job, Francis! Fun video and good insights. Looking forward to seeing all of these on the channel more as well as the trail running footage. Looks like everyone in the video had a good time on the outing.

Yes I just got done with my SCX10 III builders kit and loved it first kit I ever did and got me into trail crawling it’s an awesome rig 👍🏾💯

Great work, Francis and Lil’ Mann! I appreciate these reviews. You informed my decision to purchase the Gen8 Axe last year and the Emo this year...

Absolutely love this channel and the information it provides, appreciate you sir. Hope 2021 is a great year for your channel. Just completed my first crawler, a TRX-4 Sport, searching for the next build.

Really love the longer video this time buddy. Hope to see more in the future. Great to relax too and watch some rc fun. Looks like u could t go wrong with any of them and thats awesome. Love the honest reviews as always and keep up the great work sir! 😁✌️

I've taken a break from rc for a long time. Now I'm shopping for a RTR crawler because of my living condition. In recent years I've built my own. So thank you for putting this detailed vid together. I really enjoyed the comparison. Thr TRX kicks but. But the black blazer was my fav. The gladiator makes me want one in real life 😆. Thx enjoyed much👍

Excellent video, really interesting and fun to watch. You really had a nice time while reviewing the trucks!

This was exactly what I was looking for, thank you so much for the informative video

Man I really want that Gmade military Buffalo! Seeing your "civilian" build I think was the nail in the coffin! I think I want a Gmade!

Dude this is what I’ve been waiting / looking for. Can’t explain how much this helps. I’ve owned Traxxas and axial. So far axial has treated me better

I've had the buffalo military since it came out about 3 yrs. Haven't had to fix a single part. Did convert to normal driveshafts because I lost a barrel. I think it's funny you put three portal trucks up against this straight axle truck. It performs just as well. Agreed more weight is a pleasant addition. This truck has performed extremely well since release.

3 seconds in and trx4 baby!!!!

only thing this did was make we want one of each .....thanks fran 🙄😆

loved the Thunderdome reference. good review thanks

Nice review. I'd like to see a video of the Emo with a tightened/locked clutch and better motor.

This review is what made me decide on the SCX10iii Wrangler kit as my first crawler and RC. I mated it with the Spektrum Rugged DX5 and components. Still building! Salamat po!

Great trucks! All amazing 🚀 Really good looking 🤩

Excellent shootout comparison, Cross RC seemed to be the best so long as it doesn’t front flip. I’m definitely leaning towards the TRX4 tho, the new Chevy body looks great 👍

Great shootout , go Axial!

Still rocking HPI Venture. Old Skool 😂

Great video. I have a TRX4 Blazer but would consider a Buffalo too after this review. I wish I had a park like that near me.

I would love to see a shoot out on some of the lower budget crawlers, $350 and less. Like the Carisma SCA-1E vs Redcat Gen 8 V2 vs TRX4 Sport vs GMADE Buffalo

Great video, love the inclusion of Avery!

Great video, very informative. Keep up the good work!

Hey Frances great videos always! I had a question I'm interested in getting the cross rc and I was wondering did you have to buy 1 or 2 differential servos separately? Thank you. @RC Review

Bold Statements young man. Mind Blowing! :)

You asked what I thought of the video so I decided to take this time to comment. Great video as always. Avery needs a TRX 6 so he can just drag everything around ha ha ha ha that was too funny to watch. My top three without knowing the fourth coming content would be Cross RC with portals, axial, then gmade. Sadly even though I really like this Cross RC rig, I would probably go with the Axial purely for the aftermarket support (my only rc is an Ascender K10 so I know how crappy it is with a limited aftermarket pool to purchase from). Great video as said before though, after this I'm going to watch your video for the cross rc =D Happy Crawlin!

Curious how the red car gen 8 axe edition stacks up in this mix. No 2 speed on it right? Is the brushless and flysky enough value to justify it over one of these assuming you don't have an gt5 already?

Gmade Bom was impressive even with the first run with trans issues. I’d still give the Buffalo a try, Gmade is improving every crawler introduced

That was pretty cool!!!! I think the winner is little man!!!! He is the king of the tug of war!!!! 🤘🤘🤘

How could i missed that! (Gladiator SCX10.3 vs. Cross RC EMO) both trucks need a Rematch! this was so close!, But i didn't notice that the Gladiator had a burned out servo!,(Francis) you"ve probably make it happen next time, nice cool shootout, it's like the (Wild Wild West) all over again!

This video has made my decision even harder. I like the trx4 but now am torn! Is there aftermarket support yet for the EMO at4? Awesome videos as well and you are my go to review channel!

Nice video, I've been excited for this shootout! I have a question: What ever happened to your Senton 3s BLX? I was thinking it would be cool to have a shootout of the Senton versus the ZD Racing DBX 10. Great video, and thanks for uploading 😎👊👍

Awesome commentary 👌. This would make a great sport 👍

always a pleasure to watch your videos, detail well, nice comparison and great rocky place, I have the traxxax trx4 denfender ,, great !! but I find that in your tests the Absima Sherpa is missing which is in my opinion in the same category, I am from Belgium, and translated my French by google sorry for the mistakes, see you soon

I think the dual rate springs on the Cross also help a lot.

Great unbiased review! I think we’d all love to see a 1 on 1 with the King TRX4 Sport despite the different class. Is this maybe in the works?

Hey mate great video wondering if you can give us any tips on what to buy for me and my son

Curious to see the red cat gen 8 v2 and the absima sherpa in this type of review.

What servo upgrade would you use on a TRX 4? I just ordered the 2021 Bronco TRX 4. Thanks!

Love your videos

The Gladiator deserved at least second in my opinion, but good shootout!😃

I'm literally looking to figure out my next super scale build as you posted this. Thank you brother. You are the man!

24:04 Oh, am i looking a Kev Talbot Video :) Haha, nice

I would like to see a comparison between a rbx10 ryft and a regular crawler

Cool cars 👍😊👍

I am happy I picked a cross at4 after this review just finishing up the kit and some paint

I have never once regretted going ahead and spending the extra money on my TRX4. It only takes a bit more to go first class.

The 10.3 looked like it won all the climbing tests to me lol. Nice comparison! I was wondering how that Buffalo performed.

Gmade held its own. Tempting me to pick one up

Those Chevy Blazer bodies are neat AF 😍😍

Great review and what a surprising result! It seems that the untouchable TRX4 has found a worthy contender, at last! It was more surprising because the Cross RC never felt the strongest contender at anything, at least from where I was sitting. My money was on the Gmade, actually, which I thought would be easily ourperformed by the TRX and SCX, which didn't seem the case, especially at the beginning. I think some of the [human error] driving on the TRX4 hurt it at some key moments of the vid, but we've seem both the Traxxas and the SCX several times here perform, so I have a good idea of how capable they are. I am left wondering how well the Gmade would perform against some less extreme crawlers, such as a more comparable rival, IMO, Element's Trailrunner. They're both on smaller tires, and being both such good platforms, I think you should do a shootout of those two. I think it would be pretty close! Thanks again for the great content!

For the Gladiator, when you say you can swap the servo from the DIG, to the 2 speed if you want ... does that also mean you will only be in 2nd gear as long as you hold the 3rd channel down? Coz the 3rd channel is a momentary switch ... not switchable. Or is there a setting somewhere that allows you to press the 3rd channel once to select 2nd, and then again, to go back to 1st? I didnt think it would be swappable for the simple fact the 3rd channel is momentary, not a switch?

Would nice to compare straight out of the box, then upgrade whatever each need and do another comparison to see which comes out on top.

Was thinking of buying a competition crawler. Would love to see a video on something like the RC4WD Bully II MOA RTR Competition Crawler.

Something to watch between SX heat races!

Awesome 🤩🤩🤩

I’ve been looking to get into bigger scale crawling I currently have an SCX24 and looking to get something bigger. Do you still have the same opinions on the results after seeing the new trx4 bronco?

I like the cross,if I get one i'll change out the body for a p/u with a flatbed or cage.I would like to see u include a "belly dragger" in one of your shootouts.Thanks for the video, very enjoyable.

I have a real world 97 Jeep Cherokee 4x4 with a 4 inch lift, obviously larger mud tires. Is there a 1/10th scale crawler I can get RTR out of the box, or do I have to build one? Your best opinion/thoughts/input please. Budget of $600

This is exactly the lineup I'm trying to choose from at the minute. Still can't decide 🙈 I'd go for the Axial tomorrow if the 1st/2nd gear ratio wasn't so poor...

The Traxxas Blazer appears to have the red links which indicate it has the lift kit on it.

Thank you!!

I would say put the metal wheels on the others to give a fair assessment

Trx4 sport vs Emo next

Keep it up, kuya Francis!

I see to much of a driving skills differences.

I have a trx4 sport kit and I picked up a hobbywing 3300kv r2 I like to no if 2speed will make it perform better for speed and crawled so what setup do you recommend for what I want to do with it and water perform lights sets

I love the way you say actually you should make a vid on just you saying that

Great commentating.

Great video, have you ever tried the Laegendary Grando? I've had mine for about a year now and it's been an awesome crawler. The only thing that broke after lots of abuse was the steering servo. It has a two speed transmission and winch that come with it , stock tires aren't bad but upgraded to deep woods those tires are so grippy I love them . Thanks for sharing the video 👍

I really like Gmade style of blazer.

So I already have aTRX4 Defender with a bunch of upgrades. I have been looking to get my wife a crawler would the SCX10.3 be a good option or should I go with a TRX4 sport, because I already have experience with Traxxas.

seems like the gladiator's truck like body was an advantage and makes sense to use it instead of the Wrangler body. I'd like to see a test of the TRX4 with a Sport body against the SCX10 III Gladiator.

I would really really love to see how the absima sherpa will test against all these i think it could be quit the contender 😁

Thinking about getting the gladiator

What are the differences between all the cross rc 4x4 1/10 crawlers ? Body is the only difference ? Pg4, su4, fr4, sp4, kr4, sg4, sr4, ar4, jt4, xt4

Rc review I live in san jose ca and im looking for a good place to take my gen7pro and crawl

Gmade does it for me, the standard overdrive is great.

Great shoutout, super info!! Great vid!

Miss the Axial at the spot start minute 10.29?

Love your work francis keep up the great work, gotta ask, are you filipino bro?

I need another crawler the last one I had was a trx4 bronco 2021. Some a hole went in my car and stole it. I think I’m getting another trx4 but blazer.

Traxxas was a roller. G made looked good for not having portals. I have many Cross Demons.

Mr rc Review, Have you ever done a review on theYiKong Racing YK4101 a great little truck Similar to the TRX,4 👍👏💪

Great video... I agree with the Cross. If that can perform with a slipping clutch that good then one can only imagine when it's adjusted correctly what that vehicle can do!!!!! Rock On !!

Did you try the Yikong Amewi RCX10 Pro ?

What about a drag race to show off the two speed transmission in these trucks i think if u move the internals around on the gmade it would do even better

TRX,4 👍
