    Great job Rich on the detail comparison video. Just the tittle alone deserves a thumbs up not to mention all the details but you went into.

    Just bought the axial yeti, I know it’s discontinued but that’s why I bought it when I saw one available, so many parts still available, I have my basket full of most the parts that will make it a better racer, I’m going to try some closed cell foams in the stock tires and see how much it changes their performance. Worst case, I’ll have to buy new tires

    • @travnamber1

      I just picked up my second Yeti last month. Getting harder to find parts for now that they've been discontinued for a while.

    @MY1973FIREBIRD 7 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I wish I would have seen your video before I bought my Baja ray. You are very right it is a good vehicle but any upgraded parts are hard find in they are expensive. When you have to pay a $100 for a new body that's a little ridiculous

    @David.42 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    A fair comparison. I don't recall the 2-speed option of the Yeti being mentioned, but it was the versatility of the Yeti that sold me on it over the 'Rey platform. As a fan of Losi products myself, I would take the SCBE over the Rock Rey, for performance and parts availability.

    • @TheRCNetwork
      @TheRCNetwork  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      If you outfit the Yeti with a decent sensored brushless system, you won't need the 2 speed

  • @mikzanhar
    @mikzanhar 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I just bought these 2 and wished I bought 2 rock Rey’s, the yeti had a king pin laying in the box when I’d opened it, the rock Rey would be twice as fast, much larger and a far better out of the box rtr in my opinion. In saying this I have nothing against Axial I have the yeti XL and love it.

    I have had both yeti an rock Rey . The rock Rey too me had more electrical issues then I liked strait out of the box the motor burnt up with in the first ten minutes took about a month too get it replaced under warranty the mesh was way too tight out of the box is the only thing I saw that caused it but who knows I know I had too reset it when I put the new motor in it an it was fine afterwards. The yeti I haven’t had any issues with it other then the front diff wore out do too a screw that was too long an was rubbing the ring gear in the front diff went through the top of the housing .

    • @TheRCNetwork

    • @TheRCNetwork
      @TheRCNetwork  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      As far as suspension type, yes....although the UDR is much larger scale at 1/7th (ish) where the Rock Rey and Yeti are 1/10th scale

    great info rich, but as an axial addict, i'm a little biased. i've got an empty shelf with yeti written all over it. problem is i just bought a bomber cage for a piece build, and i haven't even finished the scx10ii yet. oh yeah, i just broke my wraith too and i'm waiting on parts.

  • @dustinf11
    @dustinf11 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    One thing worth mentioning.

    so it's the Axial for me, because upgrading is the hobby for me, making it your own to beat another, that's the fun of it, if I can personally make a yeti beat a rock rey then I have made a personal achievement I can be proud of. Thats winning.

    Excellent review. I am trying to figure out between the summit and the losi rock rey. I know that was not the subject of the video. I am new getting into the hobby and will mostly trail/crawl it. Maybe some small jumps a local track. No stunt jumps at the skatepark or anything like that.

  • @michaelregan427
    @michaelregan427 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    The Rock Rey is a good rig with a few adjustments. The RR setup is awful from the factory, damn thing won't even track straight (and yes I can drive an rc). The tires are too big, foams way too soft, diffs out bad with stock oil, and the stock steering setup has a comical amount of play and flex.
    Steel links all around, smaller tires and stiffer foams, HR steering setup and you've got a truck that will be capable on 3s.

      Neither at this point. They both have weaknesses that take you to the bench after every race. Out of the box, the Rock Rey is a better start over the Yeti. The Yeti will have a ton of part support though. I would skip both of these and build a Tekno DB48

    Hey dude i have a small problem with my yeti. At slow speed it goes straight. When i punch the throttle at full speed it wants to go to the right.. I know it has torq flex but does this stil effect it after top speed? Do you know the cause and solution? Thanks.

      I'd try tightening down on the sway bar. It's the nature of a solid axle locked truck.

      Jesse King WR Rock Rey, and lock the center diff to be legal for 2.2” Indy. As you start racing, you’ll see the weak parts that need to be replaced - Tires/inserts, servo, steering rack to start.

    How did you get an mip x duty drive shaft to work on the losi rock Rey. It would be awesome to be able to have a driveshaft that last more than 3 to 5 battery pack

    • @TheRCNetwork

      Brad Rad I explained it in a previous video on just the Rock Rey - you’ll have to dremel the end of one of the MIP outputs and then come up with a different sized pin screw.

      Not sure what the $150CD consistes of, but look into the SSD wheels - pretty affordable at $59 USD with the hub....and they're SLW compatible

    The people that automatically go to Axial without giving Losi a shot are only punishing themselves. Sure Losi doesn't have the aftermarket support, but it doesn't need it. Axials need tons of upgrades out of the box.
