I have many of these cheap Chinese Crawlers.

THEY ALL ARE PEACE OF SHIT !!!

ALOT PROBLEMS !!!

DONT BUY.

My friend have Losi old Comp Crawler and new Vanquish crawler
Not a single issues after alot hard Crawling with heavy 2.2"

All my cheap Chinese rigs have failed now.
Today my Orange one.

They are OK with stock plastic 1.9 wheels, and stock slow 2s lipo combo.
After change to stronger 3s and big 2.2" wheels they dont last more than
1-5 packs.
They are way too weak.

Stock wheels and electronics they will last maybe 20packs.
Then you need change alot parts.

NOT WORTH IT.

Buy quality car like real Axial, Element, Losi, TRX4. Vanquish, only
Quality brand and be happy.


All my Chinese rigs will need aftermarked stronger Alu axles.
And more. In the end these will be expensive rigs.
And you need wait long time for hop ups to arrive from China too.
Many weeks, atleast one month.

Now you know. I have Warned you guys.

I will never ever buy one Chinese cheap Crawler ANY More ever.
They need alot custom parts and time+ mods

Well i like mod these. Anyways next time when i buy Crawler
one new
i will buy Quality Brand only. No need mod straight away alot things.
 
HAHA, yes that is true

Insane how crappy drive shafts are and other things in these rigs stock.
Like butter.

These must be 50cent parts, no quality control at all.
Sad

These things are bad for the hobby, if beginners buy these, they will not stay in this hobby.

China have good hop up parts, , then they are pretty expensive.

Anyways all RTR stuff is JUNK from Chinese brands. Must avoid, or you need buy alot hop ups.

Build self, or buy quality brand like TRX4, Losi, Axial. Element, Vanquish and brands like these, then you will be happy. No need buy hop ups straight away..

Everyone must avoid chinese RTR rigs. Pure JUNK.. They need ALOT hop ups.
 
Thank you for the warning, crawler.boy! uhh, I mean rccar4life. Wait, I meant Jjay…yeah, that’s it.
 
A good deal is only a good deal until it isn’t………….

A $100 item isn’t always 10 times better than a $10 item, but is almost always better. I totally get the attraction to “cheaper knockoffs”, but everyone makes mistakes.
