I would have to disagree Joe , in my opinion Ecto was the winner
@jakethole Жыл бұрын
Think the Ecto took it actually. Based on Ecto making Crawly where the pro didn’t. Would like to see a re-match. Put the 25% gears from Team KnK in Ecto and get the brass on the front of the pro. Then let’s see how they perform. ❤ this content. Thank you! You are the cream of the crop the pick of the litter!

Ecto is a beast and everyone that has one knows they have a mysterious self righting system when they fall. Ecto is just one if not the best rtr out of the box since the Capra. Ecto performance is really 50% tire choice. Hate saying that but it's ridiculously true. It's just an amazing truck. Getting a second. Thanks for your videos Joe!
@jasonbickford4283 Жыл бұрын
I myself would have to say ecto is the winner. The scx10 pro was purpose built to crawl and the ecto can do a lot as an rtr. Ecto is not necessarily purpose built or is he lol. I'm interested in seeing your original red comp truck go against the pro. I just have to see.

Ecto won gatekeeper. It got the hook and climbed it. Pro took a bit of a cheater line. and I think pro did cliffhanger quicker because even the second attempt with the ecto was close to a one shot so you were slower to back up and readjust. But overall, very different trucks and excited to see the old ecto hang with the comp oriented pro.

I would have to give it to the Ecto based on the how the vehicles drove. I wouldn’t put as much stock into the times even though it is a measurable point. With these two as well I’d take the Ecto into battle at a comp over the Pro. Maybe once there’s some brass on the front of the Pro it’ll start to pull ahead.

If one truck goes somewhere, another truck just can’t go that should count worth more than one point. I gave the overall to the ecto. Great comparison.

Ecto has tuning and very specific parts to help it, the ecto had probably close to a half in on wheelbase. For me the more Capable rig is the winner, but I wouldn’t vote till you get that pro dialed in and maybe back those turnbuckles out so they have the same wheelbase just for testing. 👍

I’d probably call it equal, or a draw, the problem here is you need to try a few different terrains, obviously both very capable rigs, but both very different. But I do think that spend the same amount of money on the ecto as the pro costs and do a comparison. Appreciate the video, it’s helped me decide which direction I want to go with crawler number eight…

hi Joe👋, great comparison👍. maybe i am the only one who doesn't like the ecto😅. for my pratice i prefer portal axle🤗, i dont like the front axle of element rc. and honestly i prefer my trailrunner upgraded to the Ecto😊, because it's a great climber and really nice to drive it👍. it remains a picky opinion😉, I admit that the ecto is an excellent machine👍, apart from the original tires, which is a shame... have a nice day✌️

Maybe your SCX10Pro has just 57/58/59% Frontweight-Bias, and wants a bit more. SSD00472 Brass Knuckles for SCX10 III Straight Axle should fit. Or from Treal. Or from China. Or Axial will make some soon (with carbon chassis rails and so on)

Nothing beats the Honcho, once you see that, it's hard to go back to smaller scale imo. Hey I have a few 1/10s but the 1/6 is a beast. I think the most important factor is it has the weight to crawl almost to a scale if that makes sense, 11 kgs is seriously heavy.
