Axial Racing has added another SCX24 to the lineup and Greg is beyond excited about this one. The new rig is the Axial Jeep Gladiator Rubicon SCX24 SCX24 found here: snp.link/f9c6d784 and it’s a perfect small scale rig for Jeep enthusiasts to RC enthusiasts to custom builders. Beyond the well detailed Overland Adventure styling on the Gladiator truck body, the SCX24 itself received a few tweaks that may make this the best SCX24 you can get out of the box. In this video, Greg will go over all of the trucks features and show you how easy it is to drive on the rocks. The frigid action portion of this video is worth a repeat watch. Link and price are just below if you’re thinking of adding this tiny truck to your garage!

There's a bunch of you guys on KZfaq aka mat, josh and a bunch of other great channels that offer really solid reviews. I would say hands down you are the best on KZfaq for rock solid reviews I Absolutely love your channel and always seek you out to see what you think before I throw down my hard earned money. Thank you for all the work. But that being said I'm getting really annoyed with these companies sending dozens of these units to literally dozens of reviewers to throw up in my face before I can buy one. Seriously just send a few for review to the top 3. If they would stop sending them to everyone that has a you tube channel and put a dozen of them on the shelf instead for sale then maybe a few of us common folk could actually buy 1. Seriously thank you for all that you do. You have the BEST reviews. Period hands down! But I've actually watched 4 reviews today from people that have no idea what the product is or could possibly offer anything to axial as far as feedback to improve there product. Thank you for allowing the rant . And Thank you again. I'm not wasting my time anymore. if they are not available. I will just buy something else actually available at launch date and pick up this body when it's in the bargain bin a year from now.

It looks cool. Jeeps always do. If you are into driving around all scale looking this is as close as it gets at 1:24. That front bumper is horrible though. Nothing that can't be fixed in the aftermarket. I think it will do better with natural outdoor courses than it will on tighter indoor artificial ones. The long wheelbase will help it outside. Indoors it will likely get highsided on the skidplate a lot easier than SWB rigs. Good video. I wish I had that terrain near where I live. Thanks for sharing.

IMO just plain removing the front bumper is the best mod to any scx24 bc it will give you a better approach angle and with the lights removed you can actually install light buckets in the grille where the head lights are.

@dinh71 2 жыл бұрын

The front sticks out ridiculously far on the JLU, and it's still the same on this Gladiator. Not sure on Axial's thought on this design. IMO it just looks terrible and it really affects performance. I removed mine, on my JLU, and added a diy one. Significantly improved the approach angle!
