@DeviousRC 66 200 dollars to get rolling with a bunch of stuff I already have laying around. This is perfect for the scaler who already has tons of spares. It is also cheaper than buying a kit with wheels/tires and a body I don't want. Yea it's pricey, but Axial has always been pricey. Plenty of budget options out there. Axial isn't one of them. Frankly, I'm just happy it isn't another Jeep branded product.
@DeviousRC 66 it's a great deal for any 1 looking to upgrade there old chassis! It would have cost me more to upgrade my old Scx10 then buy this kit and you if already have the parts like me and most every 1 I know in the hobby it's a no brainier! If not grab a scx1010.2 deadbolt for $300 to get started lol! I love my kit have had 0 issues with it so far and the diff ring gear and locker are 1 solid peace so no risk of screws backing out and binding the axle up!
Josh, I was excited as Hell when they announced this Kit!! I was blown away and Humbled, when someone (NOT from the RC Community, obviously), SENT ONE TO MY DOOR!!! 😊😊😀👍👍 It's my FIRST SCX10 ANYTHING I've ever had! I'm thinking, because of that, I may go Old School, like a Deadbolt or Dingo... IF I can get a Body.... It seems fitting, being the beginning of the Trail for me, with a SCX10 II. 😎 Sure, it's got its shortcomings (SHOCKS), but there's an Old School fix for that too.... Mount them *upside-down* until I can afford good Shocks. 😉 I feel like a Kid!! I can't wait to get to work. Carmine 💥 ⛽
I can't believe someone else is complaining about the rod ends, I thought I was the only one, I change them like every two months and I use my truck only once a week if that, they stretch and come loose, the Vaterra's, no problem at all ever, I hope axial is watching your videos and reading the comments.
@@fernsolo BR rod ends should be good for at least 2 years I would think. They're trying to be a major competitor in the crawler market so I would expect them to be pretty high quality
Yup the RPM ends and get Vanquish brass pivot balls it's like 10$ for 12 it took two packs to do my scx10ii I used to have and they made a huge difference and don't wear out and stick like the aluminum one's.
Perfect for what I have in mind; custom bead locks, Proline Toyota hilux body and an opportunity to try out some budget electronics that people have had success with. My first build and so far a joy to assemble.
The HW 1080 brushed etc for 40 bucks is perfect.. I use the Fan Model 25G servo; 25 bucks or less. Quiet, powerful enough and water resistant. Stock Axial radio gear for 40.
I just built my SCX10.2 today. I love it already. The only thing that I added is knk brass hex’s, incision links and shocks. I used a Reef’s RC 299 servo powered by a Hobbywing 10amp BEC, and running on an AXE 1200 kv combo on 3s lipo. The servo is lighting fast and super strong and the esc/motor combo is amazing. I think this could be my favorite truck. I plan on driving it for a few months and eventually going to a Brazin’ all chassis and 2.2 wheels.
Just picked 1 and built it last weekend and so far I love it haven't had a issue yet. Thanks for pointing out the link end issue I'll have to keep a eye on mine!
Have one Raw Builders kit on the way for my 10 year old sons Christmas present. It will be his first build. Its cheaper than video gaming and some Lego sets.We already have a Dragbolt and Honcho, both Vanquished out!!!! So he will keep this truck mostly stock for know. I had two parents call me recently on getting there kids into RC, because of to much gaming.so we are excited about that. Know I just can't make up my mind for me, because of the $40.00 off sale on the original kit.
@@tylercage270 Thinking RAW kit, I want a different body anyway and I mite use the original kit style axles, maybe? I will use the difference in cost for parts I pick myself. Have a extra set of tires already to. My son's kit is hear and it came with gold shock shaft's,that was a surprise, doesn't show that on box. I had to peak at it.. I will order my raw kit in couple weeks. Good luck. Hopping I get same shock shaft's that he did. Mite just be a fluke.
I think this will be my next truck because I want a good truck with a solid steel drivetrain but it won't cost me $500-600 I did the math I think I can get a solid rig for under $400 that is completely custom and I get to pick everything,it's like buying a new car but it has unlimited options
So im late to the party. This is my first build kit. Other then owning a gmade komodo and sawback rtr trucks. One of the main reasons i went with this kit was that i live in california and gmade parts are always on back order for me. Plus i already have a castle mamba x censored combo 2280kv. 4 channel receiver and rc4wd fuel wheels and yeah racing shocks. I wanted something i could simply build and transfer my electronics to. So far im loving this build
I bought the Gen1 from RPP as a builders kit for my SmurFJ, it was a great option and money saver. Im glad to see Axial get to this as a standard. I do agree that the shocks shouldve at least been the Icon shocks. Overall its a great start for someone looking to build a custom rig.
Yes it worth it imo cause everything they don't include always is the first to get yanked out anyway cause everything I build is custom and I 100% agree with the shocks I'm currently building up a truck right now and just installed incision shocks while I have some opinions there as well I opted to just grease the shocks and run them dry for how I like my crawler suspension to feel other than the axle housing for me it's a home run.
I replaced all my rod ends with RPM Traxxas turnbuckle rod ends. They're close enough in length to the stock rod ends to not affect the wheelbase any noticeable amount
I fit right into this market that you suggested. Got 3 SCX10 & a bomber. I do enjoy wrenching and planning builds and this was perfect to do so. Though my wishlist of parts is getting out of hand. Also totally agree with the shocks as I did the same.
As I already have a body available, the ESC, wheels, motor and remote as well, I will soon order this kit. I believe that this kit refers to this type of people which has already a few parts and would like to build a new different rig with different style. I have 3 more rigs, but for only $200, is worth it to go for the 4th one :) Nice description of the kit, great vid.
Team Raffee does have 4mm rods ends (straight, angled or offset ) that are a much harder plastic which are the exact same size has the 4mm ends that came with the original kit. They seem to work pretty good so far. They took the abuse of my scx10 converted monster truck with jconcepts 2.6 tires.
I personally think buying a RTR is a better option as you can sell things to make a return. I still like that this version is available as I’m sure it fits into a lot of different build ideas. I would rather have the honcho(preferred) or deadbolt and sell the stuff I won’t be using. A decent honcho body or deadbolt body with cage and bumper(s) will usually fetch around $25-30 profit depending on shipping. The electronics will usually fetch another $45-50 after shipping. Some of the others like the XJ, JK and Blazer will fetch more for the body and bumpers. So that could be $70-80 off the cheapest RTR’s and possibly close to $90+ for the others. The links and shocks I never really sell, just throw them in a bin for parts bin builds or mock up, even though I guess they could have some small value. The XJ, JK, and blazer links might actually fetch something worth the effort I suppose. The wheels/tires also usually can bring in $10-20, but probably takes the longest to sell. I get that this takes time and effort and has some risk. Stripping a rtr for back up parts or selling them and reducing overall cost of base to below $300 has proven to be worthwhile for me 3 times. So that’s my route. Also, something about unboxing a rtr is fun for me, and it isn’t “unboxing videos”.
I went thru the price breakdown of all that but decided to cut it from the video. Even with the discounts now, you can barely get to the volume of the kit and that’s assuming you can sell all of it. While I still like the RTR route, I don’t think necessarily a better value.
I still like that the builders kit is available because the parts listed originally are sometimes difficult to sell or just take a little while. If you have the budget and want to get things done, boom boom boom, I feel the kit is well worth its retail. I personally have a smaller separate budget for RC, so I pinch pennies and over time it adds up for me. Glad you cut all that from the video. It started to suck typing it out about halfway through but I felt committed to finishing the comment. Lol. Plus, then you would have people talking about stock electronic quality in the comments section as I know some who think those things should just be pitched in the garbage or given away.
Thanks Harley you touched base on all the goodies this kit has to offer amazing platform like you said I have so many crazy build ideas huh something new something different lol...
I wish they would have put metal shocks in it even if they charged a little more, they were probably shooting for the sub 200.00 price but come on guys I have plastic shocks on my Tamiya shelf cars that are just for display with no electronics, if I run something I want metal shocks.
Completely agreed with this. If it came down to a $300 RTR kit, based on this. Or a $300 "Builders Kit" with aluminum shocks and shock towers. I would choose the builders kit all day every day.
The major hit and miss for me on this kit, has been the Plastic shocks and shock towers. I don't care if they look like reservoir shocks or not. They're terrible. Since this is a builders kit, I understand giving an option. That said, I personally think think kit would sell better if it was priced at $275.00 and included Aluminum shocks, and Aluminum shock towers.
Wish they woulda had this out before i built mine lol. I built my scx10.2 piece by piece. But the plus side, i got the parts i wanted vs havin extras i wouldnt use layin around. Granted, i probabaly coulda sold or traded wat i wasnt goina use. Lookin to do a couple builds here soon, so i may pick one up
If you drive the rig moderately hard, they will stretch and usually pretty quickly. However a lot of people are not hard on their rigs which is great for durability!
I was looking at this kit but I decided I will wait until I save up for the scx10ii Cherokee kit or the new wraith 1.9 but I am hoping they come out with a kit version of it because I have all the electronics already besides a transmitter/receiver.
@@HarleyDesignsInc Thanks good to know, I'm going to try and get one for a good price, I do vehicle wraps and we work in Casey Currie's shop and I wrap all his stuff I'm doing his Jeep's next week so I'm going to do like half off one wrap for a new wraith. That's how I got my CRC scx10ii I traded some work out for it but I ended up selling it and I wish I didn't lol.
RC IT ALL the scx10.2 is a nicer rig. I just robbed my gen 8 of its AXe combo for this thing and I’m glad I did. Don’t get me wrong the redcat is bad ass but the axial comes with more/better stuff. Only the portals are obviously going to be better they do come with setbacks. The warranty is great on them but waiting for parts sucks.
I know this is a 1 year old video but I just bought this off amazing and it’s on its way I have never owned a crawler or built a kit I want the to be the first for both of you think it will be an easy kit for a beginner in the kit world?
To make a CMS with panhard work properly you want the draglink and panhard as long as possible and as parallel as possible. To maximize those lengths, the position they chose was optimal. It is tightly packaged but it’s a good design.
I have the new Otto motor l200 nitro engine and am looking for a chassis I might be able to modify and use for my first project. Does anyone have any experience and can give me some advice?
Disagree; the only 'option' parts incl in this kit are the metal trans gears; for a few more dollars, I'd like the 2spd ready trans, ditch the bumper, plastic links, adjustable battery tray. Say a price point around 229..
@@HarleyDesignsInc I want that for a bruiser that the transmission sits like and falls off. I thought an inch taller would be great for 2.2 rigs and portal rigs but longer might be the better option
I'd rather spend an extra 150 and get the SSD Trail King kit. It's a no brainer... Aluminum shocks, c-hubs, forward motor, titanium links, steel drive shafts, machined gears. It makes this kit look like a cheap toy. Axial fails again.
The SSD has been discounted down from $450 because of failing sales. I’d be surprised to see the SSD will continue to be made with what they have had to discount it to in order to move units.
@@HarleyDesignsInc they will still make all the parts since the kit is just a compilation of all their Scx10 upgrades. It's a far superior kit for a very fair price. I'll be ordering one soon. Axial price keeps going up while quality goes down.
Smartest thing Axial has ever done.

A great idea by Axial I think. I think I'll be picking one of these up for a build sooner or later.
Thanks Harley you touched base on all the goodies this kit has to offer amazing platform like you said I have so many crazy build ideas huh something new something different lol...
This is a great idea by Axial. Now if we can get that other manufacturer to come off their $250 price point we will have two good builder kits.
The HPI does come with nicer shocks, so there is value there. But I don’t like the Venture axles nearly as much.
Nice video and overview! Totally agree about the rod-ends. If they could just fix that....
Great video! Tons of info. Looking at this to be my next project

Good call, definitely worth noting.
This is brilliant on Axials part.
Been wanting a Chevy to add to my fleet. Debating on getting this to build one or get the SCX10ii 69 Blazer. I guess this will save me a few dollars.

I replaced the plastic pivot ball with samix stainless steel ones and not had an issue stretch.
If you drive the rig moderately hard, they will stretch and usually pretty quickly. However a lot of people are not hard on their rigs which is great for durability!
If you want "serious" scaleing/crawling and would go for a kit anyway, yes!
I usually use traxxas t max tie rods as links. There tuff.
I think it opens a Lot of options.
My Axial kit rod ends are still going strong after a year of wheeling. I don't bash though.
Thanks buddy:)

Absolutely, it’s a good choice. Picking a body, wheels and tires isn’t too hard and shouldn’t be a problem at all.

Just finished the build..👍
What i don't understand is the place of the servo..why put it so close too the panhard mount

Well put 👍

Great Vid and Info 👍👍👍👍
Would this be a good thing to pick up just to add some stuff to my Enduro , like axles links
Do you know what parts are needed to fit the servo winch mount? And do you know if the Vanquish dig unit will fit this kit? Thanks
My honcho ii came with metal transmission gears, maybe it was the first batch that came with metal gear before they re-released it with plastic gears?
There were some of the first ones that were shipped with the Jeep JK trans, but they were never intended to.
Just what i need to know 🤟🏻👍🙏🏻😃
Hey bud nice video, can i build a straight axle monster truck with this platform? Or would you recommend another platform? Thank you for your time
This would not be a good platform for that. A SMT-10, Wraith, Bomber are the better choices.

The only disappointment for me is they haven't included the servo winch mount plate.

How long until someone puts a Toyan L400 on this thing???
C'mon people we need it!!!
I liked this video cuz i was gonna buy this for my own Christmas gift. And now I'm not lol
Did any of the parts trees come with Easter eggs, like the kit and rtr versions?? i.e.; ammo can, rifle, helmet...
Ammo cans come on the rod end tree, and I can’t remember if the bull horns were in there or not.
Awesome Video!! Do you prefer this one over the older 10ii Cherokee kit? Trying to pick one or the other lol..
With a code on tower I can get the older 10ii Cherokee kit for under $300.00....
I prefer this one, but if you like the Cherokee it’s a fine base.
I wonder if they'll ever do this for the Wraith???
I would doubt it. The SCX10 is much more of a blank slate to build on compared to the Wraith.
Only gripe is no rear bumper mount.
What is that stand you have it sitting on?
I got 1coming
Disagree; the only 'option' parts incl in this kit are the metal trans gears; for a few more dollars, I'd like the 2spd ready trans, ditch the bumper, plastic links, adjustable battery tray.
Say a price point around 229..
Not really like this transmission, 1st scx-10 had better one
@DeviousRC 66 same gears but different case
I just want to drop the metal transmission housing into my 10-2
This is still a plastic trans, it just has a different color.
Wanting to upgrade my shocks what would you recommend? Thanks
I’m using Incision 90mm shocks with 60wt oil.
@@HarleyDesignsInc thanks
@@HarleyDesignsInc are these the shocks u are using in this rig?....if so front and rear with 60 weight oil all around?....
What's up with that sweet Cellblock. I need one that is taller
That's the new Short Block from Crawler Innovations. It's one of my new favorites.
@@HarleyDesignsInc I want that for a bruiser that the transmission sits like and falls off. I thought an inch taller would be great for 2.2 rigs and portal rigs but longer might be the better option
Just saw it on the CI site. Why so secretive on this
Well damn there's a taller one too
🤘🍻🤘
Will this hold up on 3S power?
All day
still a ton of stuff i'm not going to use.
I'd rather spend an extra 150 and get the SSD Trail King kit. It's a no brainer... Aluminum shocks, c-hubs, forward motor, titanium links, steel drive shafts, machined gears. It makes this kit look like a cheap toy. Axial fails again.
The SSD has been discounted down from $450 because of failing sales. I’d be surprised to see the SSD will continue to be made with what they have had to discount it to in order to move units.
@@HarleyDesignsInc they will still make all the parts since the kit is just a compilation of all their Scx10 upgrades. It's a far superior kit for a very fair price. I'll be ordering one soon. Axial price keeps going up while quality goes down.
Sintered gear set in a kit👎🏻
