Here’s the cheapest 1/10 Axial 4x4 you can get, the NEW 2022 Deadbolt SCX10 II found here: bit.ly/3POD0ko It seems that the Deadbolt just won’t die and we’re actually really happy Axial has decided to keep it around with a simple refresh. The Deadbolt is part of Axial culture and is really a great crawler from the occasional backyard crawler to even the experienced who need a base for their project. The Axial Deadbolt SCX10 II has all the right components to be a capable crawler. It’s simple to use and most importantly, just a whole lot of fun! In this video Greg will go over the tweaks and show you how much of a blast this crawler is through some fun challenges!

I have this truck as 1/24. Really enjoy it. Upgraded the shocks and steering link and servo link. That took the bounce of the suspension out.

You can't go wrong with the SCX10ii. Excellent intro RC and the aftermarket support as you said is good. Vanquish parts always good. Pro Line tires. Like button energized.

I wanted to mention one additional thing. When I clicked on the link for this crawler it takes you to the Horizon listing for one price. At the same time when you go to Horizon or Tower the name of the crawler for the past version is the same as the 2022 version and it's cheaper. Some people might think they're buying the new one. They definitely need to have a different name for the listing.

@rcdriver Жыл бұрын

I think the cheaper version you’re seeing is the previous version (green rig I show) I’m sure they’ll take that listing down soon as it appears stock has run out.

@michaeldorich4485 Жыл бұрын

@@rcdriver You're right. Older version is green. It's out of stock in some places, but it's still available on Horizon, Amazon etc. It would've been nice to add 2022 to the title.

The 315 would have been nice. But the SLT protocol is good. I’ll never forget chatting with a custom RC boat company that said they only use SLT radios in their $1000+ boats.

It would have been nice if you’re already in the Spektrum system. Or for a beginner upgrading. They’re most likely going to a dx5c or rugged.

@SnarkyRC Жыл бұрын

Old Greg you're funny. Forget that Axial noise. Years ago I would've recommended the SCX10 II for beginners but, there have been so many better options since then. You'd be better off with a Gmade GS02F, Carisma SCA-1E 2.1 or a Element RC Enduro.

@rcdriver Жыл бұрын

There’s something for everyone out there. One thing this old guy has learned in his many years in RC is that people will buy what they like. The fact that something might be better means nothing to some.

@SnarkyRC Жыл бұрын

@@rcdriver Yeah definitely. Back in my racing days in the 80s and 90s it was like that. First it was you were either a Tamiya fan or a Kyosho fan. Then in the 90s you were either Team Associated or Team Losi. Granted there were other brands but, when it came to racing, there was the big rivalry. Honestly, I'd buy from Axial if they still made nitro engines but, those days are long gone.

We already had the deadbolt, it’s time for something actually new. This is 💩. Axial needs to go back to the drawing board and start listening to there customers. We want the 6x6 unimog not this old crap that can you can get for 200 bucks on Amazon . I’m really surprised you even bothered reviewing this. Kinda a waste of your time and everyone else’s.
