I have been wanting to start a new project, and I was leaning into getting the base camp as a starting point. The only thing that was holding me back was having to throw away over half of what I was buying. I kept thinking, why isn't there a base camp kit. I'm super excited about this, especially since it comes standard with the new dig kit.
A Brat would definitely be different!
...Ya, Josh is definetly "a brat", so that would certainly fit him well !!!! 🤣👏👌✌️
I was going to say something swb like a samurai or beetle, but a brat would we awesome! It gets my vote.
I think last Fridays stream he said he didn't like them 😂😪
Finally! I’ve been begging for this since the initial release of the Basecamp! 👍
Definitely on the list for another build wjat about another mud truck,loved your first one!!
Great to see Axial offering the Basecamp in a kit version (not surprising in light of the Pro kit) and providing more flexibility to build, setup and install your own electronics. This kit really hits a sweet spot, giving builders the opportunity to build a very capable chassis at a decent savings over the Pro kit. The addition of straight axles and the new gearbox/dig setup seperates it from the RTR version and should result in better performance. Smart addition to the Axial lineup! 👍
Now, just get over the holes in the links, will ya, lol! 😉
Comes with the dig, aluminum shocks, and stainless links. Pretty solid deal for the price!
My biggest gripe with the Scx10-ii kit is the crappy gray plastic transmission case, OLD crappy plastic shocks and the super soft aluminum links that stick hard on rocks. But I got mine for $140 when they were discontinuing it and it’s a solid performer at that price still, and I’ve already upgraded those parts.
My suggestion is a Jeep Scrambler
Pretty sure my scx10iii early bronco has the cast panhard mount OTB. Another choice nice, thanks for sharing
There were 7 videos on this exact kit from different tubers in my feed today including SBG (Matt)..... I just wanted you to know that I chose this one over all others!!....... Just don't tell Matt, he's a bit sensitive. I think it's a Canadian thing? 🤷♀
I'm waiting on the Spacecamp builders kit
I got 10-2 builders kit then the pro now am getting this because I've wanted one,know I have to buy a third radio and bodies for all three so going to make some overtime at work to get everything yessssssssss
I'm still running the OG honcho. Might not be new and fancy but it's fun.
So bummed that it is straight axle. With the Pro also being straight I am surprised they didn’t keep the BC kit portal.
I like this platform better than my 10.3 jl. I'd totally buy this.
Axial Basecamp Builder's Kit is my "shut up and take my money" moment. Been thinking about the rtr Basecamp but I don't need the electronics, dislike the flimsy body, not a fan of the links. This one fits the bill. Going to preorder asap. Also like the Dig option. I don't mind the straight axle. I have the VS410 with the straight axle and absolutely love it.
Moon buggy would be cool
I need to replace my worn out scx10ii builders kit chassis. I have a trx4 sport kit and love it but don't know if i should buy this or another sport kit. For $30 more I'd get another body, tires, wheels and accessories with the sport kit though
I like this.
The raw builders kit was awesome.
Now this makes it even more awesome.
I think this is great.
I'll probebly look into one sometime soon.
Great review.
Do a samurai
AMC Eagle!
I like your idea of a Jeep Liberty type buggy. I have a Mitsubishi Pajero truggy. It’s nice having something different that no one else has.
Idea for the new build. At the Rocky Mountain comp you and Matt just did to, it looked like the good old VW Beetle was coming back into popularity. When you said buggy, that was my first thought, a VW buggy build, full on class 5 unlimited Baja style build for the rocks instead of the desert. What would a Harley Designs caged out VW crawler look like?
Woods runner - basecamp!
I’ve been wanting a scx10 for years was planning to get scx10 ii raw builders kit but then I saw they had the iii base camp kit so I went with that. Think I’m gonna get a half body cliff hanger and the proline back cage with km3 tires and injora bead locks.
I was hoping the next builder’s kit would have came with portal axles
Hope in one hand. And shit in the other. See what fills up quicker.
Now that Redcat has released the wheels, you can make a donk!
The scx10 3 break panhard mount often on shock mount. Replaced in axial metal part. Now the panhard mount breaks at the axial housing . Now replacing axial front axle housing.
Nice looking kit, but I wish they would have used the Early Bronco RTR trans with the forward motor mount instead. Can that be retrofitted?
Ripper v2! 🎉
I’ve been wanting to do a rc4wd Toyota xtra cab body with the vanquish Phoenix rear bed cage. I think it’d be cool to see that on this chassis
Might have to buy one at Badlands if they have them and then build it and run it for the weekend.
Sweet!!!
Corvair Wagon would look good ...lol
Ive recently become interested in this hobby. I know almost nothing about building these things, so it's pretty fun just watching these videos and soaking up the useful info. I really like the FMS Atlas body, so if I were experienced in this hobby and were building a project from this kit, that's probably the style body i would go for. Either that or a 1978 Ford F250 style body. I chose 78 over 79 because i prefer the round headlights. We all have our.preferences though.
YES! Jeep buggy! GO GO GO!!! 👍✌️
I like how the pumpkin covers are no longer bright red and how it does not have portal axles.
Not so much a fan of the bulky transmission in the middle of the chassis, it gets in the way of interiors. it looks even bigger than it was in the SCX10II.
And they kept the tiny receiver box that has the seal in the lid so it falls out when you try to close it.
Overal it makes me regret not buying a few of the Bronco's while they were on sale.
Cool dude
I've been getting into planes recently and noticed that many RC aircraft come in what are called Bind and Fly, where the receiver is preinstalled and you bind it to your existing radio or Plug and Play, where you get motors ESCs and servos and add your own complete radio system. You don't see much of this in surface RC (or at least I haven't)... Arrma's EXB rollers come to mind... I think it would be a worthwhile option to have RTR crawlers and trail trucks without accumulating a bunch of unused radio gear...
Losi/Horizon used to offer that in the ground RC world but they just didn't sell. The ground market and air market have a lot of differences like that surprisingly.
Welp the new of SA ha me pumped up!!!!
Be cool to see you design and vacu- form your own body 👍
How about one of those 80's Nissan Patrol, or Lada Niva lol
gutt it, build the lightest pro comp rig only using the stock parts.
Maybe the setup allows you to change the shocks, use bent high clearance links. Do not go for a scale look... compete to win!
Show drivers it can be done ;)
Now they just need to do fully assembled portal kits. Only got a basecamp to pinch the portals.
The Corvair, Lakewood, body would be cool
You've got skills. I think you should build the Killerbody Jeep Gladiator body and put it on that chassis. Build it live so we can all have a laugh. : ) Do it! ...unless you're scared.
Sweet!! Add this to the list 😂
This was a no brainer release from Axial and long overdue, but I think they missed the mark. This should have been offered in both portal and straight axle versions at the same time and is too expensive. This should never be north of $250. Glad they included the dig in it though.
It is only 244.99 at Horizon with their coupon.
Hit the nail right on the head. If they released the same kit but with portals this release would’ve been so much more hype. Getting tougher to get these portal axles now a days since they discontinued the Capra kit and I’m not spending 350$+ on the 10.3 portal kit just to use the axles. From a comp guys perspective, the portals run laps around the straight axles on my terrain and local courses.
@@shuster1921 sure but it would have been much better if the coupon made it the same price as the old 10.2 kit.
Portals are better but the straight axle is more universal for a single kit. I bet the SCX10 iv will have portal options. But for now, if you want a quality portal axle kit, you’re best bet is vanquish 4-10 kit
Am going with a commache body for one of mines
Use one of the carbon fiber bodies you got. Power Ram or Cliffhanger
Seems like axial went all parts. Been special on this. Nothing is bad but they must’ve had a ton of straight axle. Conversion kits just laying around on the shelf and said hey, why don’t we just do this.
See you at Axial Fest
This (maybe) gives me hope they release a SCX6 kit someday. It probably doesn't sell well enough to justify, but as I see it now, I would settle for the Jeep (like it but not love it), and I'm really not a fan of the Honcho. Would be nice to save some money there to get a different body, personal preference in electronics and such.
If they offered a kit closer to $600, I bet they would sell a ton!
Servo’s are a little trickier because of the size. Had to grind a little on the left side for a couple Millimeters on the install or use a bit smaller servo than what I had. The S614 spectrum took off another rig fits fine but not that good performing. What’s the best choice higher voltage range that’s not crazy expensive? 150 seems a bit much. I tried an eco boost 120 here and it’s wider too.
cliffhanger half cab with tube frame bed baja style
Should definitely have included what we all call the 'Basecamp' body. I suppose it's nice that there is a discount code for a Proline body, but can we use it at our local hobby shop? Not all of us are living in the lower 49
Do a jeep caged like you did back in the day!!
Idea for Axialfest? Hear me out. A Porsche based crawler. Crazy, I know.
Everyone has already done that! 🙂
Do a Sumo body with cage work.
Whats the best builders kit at the moment?
In the UK there's no stock of the vanquish VS410 Pro.
Im about to buy my first crawler kit. Is the SCX10 3 BC 2 a good option? (Until I can get a vanquish 😉)
VW Bug...put that dang chibin fiber body to use...Watched SBGs video immediately after your video....there goes that idea.
Geo Tracker soft top
What's can you get with like a straight axle and the best of the best but in a package with everything installed including body ..i want something really good but a complete package what would you recommend..out of all the brands.
Lamborghini body. Pantera body. Fire up the 3d printer!!
How about you do your Hilux build on that? Would be a good platform for it.
You should make a military truck. Maybe a Jeep… Kaiser?
Can killerbody latest jeep gladiator body fits easily to this chassis?
I was really excited until you got to straight axles. I just want a kit with a simple transmission and portal axles, I guess there's still TRX-4 sport, or Base Camp RTR for some more money, or even the Capra.
If you do a buggy, how about something simple to be made with a readily available lexan body and bending templates. Or if you want to do homage like in the 24h mayhem, something deadbolt-esque
What pinion gear did you put with the trans
Subrau Brat!!
Need to do a Samurai body for Axilafest. Everyone will have a Jeep!
are you doing to axialfest badlands?
How about a Unimog front end pickup truck back end
Still not sold on their new transmission but overall it seems like a solid update from the 10ii builders kit
Why don't you like the new transmission?
@@rodblaine2514 it's not that I don't like it, I'm just not sold on it being an upgrade from a "standard" 3 gear.
It's hard to fault the 3 gear transmission. Vanquish Products has some nice upgrades for it too. I hope companies continue to support the SCX10ii.
It looks pretty high...not even talking about the price.😎
10.2 kit came with extra rear links for multiple wheel base lengths, does this kit? what wheel base is this kit?
You should use that mod 14
A minimog¿ Front plus cage?
Have the steering issues been fixed?
This or the Element 2? They are close to the same price. I'm thinking the Element is the way to go. They crawl very well.
yup no portals killed it for me ......that rig is amazing just how it was
Is the scx 10 pro trans adaptable onto this?
Jeep Comanche that’s what I found or mine from proline just a thought you don’t see any of them around here
Proline sumo you know you want too
Nissan hardbody for the front. No one does those. I got a ssd TK and that's what I'm gonna do. Just can't decide on full body or cab and cage on back
So are you saying not to buy the pro?
Okay I got a challenge for you shorten the scx10 iii bascamp builders kit and mount a tamiya midnight pumpkin body on it 😂 it’s going to be hard but it will look groovy if you can pull it off !
Ahhh. It's better than the 10.2 kit, but I just don't find it appealing personally. I'm not a fan of dig units or that transmission in general. Wish they would have just kept the skid bolt pattern the same as the 10.2 so we could run the vanquish 3 gear. It's still the element builders kit for me when it comes to building a kit.
Build a truggy with a hard body
I suggest a Tesla CyberTruck but a buggy version. I just put a full Hot Wheels CT body on my Bomber and it fit. Someone should make it. Taking it to a Tesla meet. Lots of fun.
Chevy Vega or the wagon version.
Like this kit so much the day after I finished building it I went and bought another one.
What is the defense between the TRX 4and the Basecamp?
Better steering angle with the Axial universals, lower center of gravity, and just more scale focused style axle design.
Strength of the TRX4 is hard to beat and the fun of the 2-speed and lockers are big selling points.
Are they the same axels as the pro used ?
no
these are AR45
what is that wheel and tire combo ? thank you
Pretty sure he says it...? Vanquish?
Juat watched again, yes, Vanquish Gold Impact wheels and Vanquish Falken tires.
thank you , i am new to the crawling but i love all the wheels that are available . @@matthewjarvinen6549
Should’ve been Axial SCX 3 Base Chassis. Why change the axles is it a price saving thing most other kits come with the same axles as the RTR which to me is better parts wise but I guess in the end not a big deal it’s leaps above the SCX2 chassis kit. Looking forward to seeing what people are going to build.
I think its a good move. You can still buy the regular 10iii kit with portals, but with them discontinuing the Early Bronco and the 10ii kit, the only straight axle 10 series you could get is a 10ii Deadbolt or the Pro, so it gives an option with the 10iii
@@nickfryer6940 yeah but the 10.3 kit is 350$+ and most guys that want the portal axles are not going to use anything else in the kit.
Vanquish
Needed update IMO.
How does this compare to scx pro.
Much less performance minded, more scale focused with the C-channel chassis.
No portals?? So this is really a Fakecamp.
I'm cool with the deletion of the portals on this. More to go wrong in my opinion anyway.
I have the “other project” idea!!!
