First crawler recomendations...

[jhautz]

Guys,

Thinking about getting a crawler to goof off with. I have no idea whats good and whats not. I know the Axial crawler is popular, but is is any good? Not looking for competition or anyhting, just something to drive around the living room or the yard or the pits at the track. Any recomendations for something that wont break the bank, but isnt a piece of junk either. Ive got lipos, servos, rx, and all the basic stuff like that so I, dont want a RTR. id rather spend the money on getting a little better kit and adding my electrics that I already have. Id probably need motors though. I dont think the mtoors I have would be the right choice for a crawler.

Thinking probably middle size crawler. The losi mini at the LHS just looks to small to do anything with, and I dont want a huge thing either. there isnt anything around that is big enought to justify the huge ones.

Is the ARTR Axial any good? How about the XTM crawler? Anthing else I should look at? They seem to be in the price range I'm thinking is reasonalble. $2-300 tops is what I'd be willing to spend.
