Newb to crawling here. Been into RC since '96 with flying and off-road stuff. Been on-road touring car racing for the last 2 years or so and have been beating up monster trucks since high school. Just starting to get into crawling and will be getting an RC4WD Gelande II Land Rover Defender soon. Glad to be a part of yet another RC forum. Thanks in advance for any questions I may have in the future.

Hi all, my name is Chris and I'm from Michigan. I love crawling, I have a T-Maxx 3.3, an Axial EXO Terra and an Axial Wraith. I dove into the RC scene about 3 years ago and have been addicted ever since. I would be happy to share my knowledge and experiences as well as learn more from the rest of you!"thumbsup"

Hey, Scaled from SLC, UT.
Axial SCX10 Deadbolt
Newbie, interested in crawling. Over the years have learned that learning how to drive slow is less expensive and in the end makes you faster. I assume this will translate to RC as well. I have two girls with Maisto Crawlers but I think they have eyes on the Deadbolt. I will likely be building a Sawback in the future when my oldest steals the Axial from me.
Interested in mostly fun crawling but open to an occasional comp down the road.

Hey all! Been around since 2005 but never posted anything so techincally still a Newbie, no actual crawler at the moment previously used a Nitro Revo or slightly modded Emaxx. Kinda got away from RC for awhile but have re found my interest in it, just finished a Brushless conversion on the Revo with the MM2 combo and am building back up a 2 wheel drive brushed Emaxx for my 3yr old daughter. The SCX10 Ram has caught my eye and will likely be the next addition.

Hello there, just checking in.
I recently put together a wraith kit my brother sold me for an awesome deal. Also hooked it up with the electronics from his honcho, ae-2 esc, 27t axial motor ( gets hot fast), castle bec, hitec 7954sh servo, vanquish upper links and steering links.
I think that's it, I live in woodland, ca just outside sacramento. Been enjoying crawling my wraith, been on here searching around for my next upgrade, prob motor

Jon here in sunny Florida, starting my Axial SCX10 G6 Jeep Rubi build today. I had an RC10 I raced a little back in the early 90's and got out of the hobby. This is my first kit since then. I found out about scaling about a year ago and thought it looked really fun, then forgot about it until I drove past the local RC club and saw it again a few weeks ago.. Can't wait to get out there and start wheeling with you guys. Going to take my time and build it right. I got 4 months to beef it up as much as possible before my first G6. Amazing how much customization can be done to these kits. Just like real Jeeps! Thanks for letting me join your forum, Later.
Hey everyone...I'm a newbie here so thought I'd post an introduction. My son and I have both had Traxxas Stampedes 4x4 for a while now, but I'm wanting to delve into crawling a bit. I think I've settled on a Losi Night Crawler, but I'm still reading and researching. I appreciate everyone's help and knowledge...this appears to be a great website/forum. Thanks.

I'm from upstate SC.
Got an HPI wheely king from a local store for my own amusement, then a friend got me interested in playing in the rocks 8)
Now I'm playing around with a Wraith Spawn kit build, rc4wd 2ax transmission and seeing where it goes from there.
Edit:
Flexcj5 is the guy that sent me here

New to RC crawling, but eperienced wheeler...
Howdy!
In a former life I wheeled the tires off my Amigo in CO/UT and frequented colorado4x4, pirate4x4, and 4x4wire forums.
FFWD half a decade and a relocation to the PNW (Seattle metro), and the itch has returned to defy gravity through mechanical means and enjoy what nature has to offer.
To placate that itch, I picked up an Axial Wraith Spawn RTR a couple weeks ago that I've been running around until battery charge is exhausted or it breaks.
So far when we have taken walks on trails, and any obstacles/rock gardens I've found to play on around the complex.
Moved the battery (2s 5100mAh) to be width wise at the firewall location, and moved electronics over the transmission skid, under the interior.
Stripping the plastic servo horn upgraded to the Axial AL version, and next trip out the servo sounded like a ratchet so upgraded that to a Savox 1230 with a CC BEC @ 6v.
The plastic pin hub stripped, so upgraded to the AL 12mm hex hub/wheel combo.
Next couple weeks I intend to upgrade the lins (steering and suspension) to the TI version, change out the body panels to AL, and paint finish the cage/chassis, body, etc.
There will be a motor/ESC upgrade coming soon, would prefer to run the 7.4v I have capability of, possibly update to a 3s battery and then start going toward gearing, more metal replacements of plastic pieces, etc.
I look forward to meeting you and learning more about the addiction, having fun so far!
Joined the WARCRC forums, so maybe I will catch you out there.
Take care and happy wheeling! 1:10, 1:1 or otherwise...

Hi all, my name is Jeff (Carolina_Customs) and Ive been in the RC hobby for about 14 years. Here lately i've gotten into custom crawler builds since i like to be different and any one can just buy parts. Currently I have 2 scx10s, a high lift, and a Gelande 2. One scx10 is a tamiya blackfoot body converted to crew cab on a truggy chassis and the other scx will be going under then knife soon to be a tamiya f350 truggy build. As you can tell from the name, I am from North Carolina and apart of the Hickory Twisters Crawler Club.
