Hi, my name is Josh. I'm new here and to the crawler scene. I've been bashing around in a short course Stadium Blitzer that's slightly modified along with a Tamiya TB-01 Subaru 2001 prototype. I've been reading about crawlers for a year and recently picked up the HPI Crawler King. I know it's far from the best out there and I'm very limited on upgrades. It seems to do mild rock crawling fairly well and just fine on scaling. All and all I'm not too disappointed. Yes I have the steering servo on the axle lol. Now I'm going to get into a question...
Where can you find "rock crawlers" such as the XR10 etc.? I've been to sites, stores, EBay, and there is nothing outside of the Redcat, Losi Nightcrawler, and 1/8 Exceed. I say 1/8 Exceed cause I'm looking for 1/10 moa. It seems like everything is discontinued or junk. Axial is pretty much only making scaling trucks. Where are they at? Somebody's got to be making something cool out there. I like scaling. It's pretty fun but I want to get into some real rock crawling with all the bells and whistles. It doesn't even need to come with all the goodies as long as they're available for me to do the upgrades.
Thanks for everything!
