Axial SCX10 iii Gladiator BUILD - BIG CHANGES! Huge Performance Gains and New Look!

In this video I give an update on my Axial SCX10 iii Jeep Gladiator build. After I got it, I went to work on making it a scale replica of my 1:1. While that was a lot of fun, and turned out great, I was left wanting more performance. So I've gone a different direction with the SCX10 and added a bunch of upgrades to take this thing to the next level!

I recently took the plunge into 1/10 scale with a trx4 sport kit. One thing im discovering is tire inserts matter a whole lot more on 1/10 scales then they do on 1/18-1/24. I’ve got proline hyrax’s with stock foams, and combined with the portals and soft springs I’m running in the front they like to collapse on themselves pretty easily and give me a lot of tipping over.

@CapeCrawlers Жыл бұрын

You're absolutely right. I am prioritizing inserts next. Either dual stage foams or 3D inserts. Folks seem to prefer the 3D printed inserts over the dual stage

@DadsRCGaragePNW Жыл бұрын

My friend great idea for you. build this how 2 ways, how you would modify your big one, and for being a good capable truck, also go grab another body and paint it and make it exactly how your 1/1 is, then you just need to swap wheels and body for pics or whatever. you could also paint that lip on the wheels pretty easily to match it even more.

I’m gonna post the short right now but I a fusion se 1800kv in my trx4 sport with a 2 speed conversion. It’s not fast but it boogies up to it’s top speed and will wheelie if I run a pack in the rear. It’ll do reverse wheelies too since I have the pack up front on the nose. And it will do a SUPER SLOW crawl.

The Blue Baby came out well.👍🏻 It'll be interesting to see how it evolves. On the dig function, where you pointed it down hill, try wheels left/reverse cos pulling a vehicle with 2 wheels in the ditch, it's better to point the wheel to the ditch and pull backwards. I'm curious if it would have a similar effect on a side slope. But I suspect it'll just dig in.... Either way it'll be fun trying.

I have the roboslugs for my UTB18. I like them a lot! Will definitely look into the bigger sets.
