    That is a badass rig there! Very capable indeed. I am really impressed with your driving skills of this beast. Unlike other vloggers out there who just hit it to the floor and just drive recklessly even at low gear, you conquer these rocks slowly inch by inch like a pro. I did really enjoy this video. Cheers!

    This is the first vid about the SCX6 that's actually made me want one, damn you! 🤣 Really good to see it tested and hear some critical (I don't mean negative) thoughts about how it runs and what it offers. The earlier vids almost completely lack that - they're basically just marketing fluff, and left me completely cold on this truck. I hope you get more stuff to test! Great stuff, cheers. 😎👍

    • @westdesertwheeler

      That’s something people probably are overlooking is how real they look. They really nailed it. I have pictures that look like a normal keep on the trail. And now it’s not smaller than the shrubs so it’s really convincing. You’re gonna like it!

    I actually like the red diff covers myself and i like that that they didnt go with portals as well. That was one thing i feel like axial should have always stuck with. Dont get me wrong, i like my TRX4, but portals are definitely not the most scale. The TRX4 with the portals made it perform really well and was pushing people to buy the TRX4 for the clearance over the solid axle conterparts. Then other companies jumped on the bandwagon rather than sticking to their roots. Axial in my opiniin is the godfather of crawling, but id like to see other models other than Jeep. My full sized trail rig is a 2000 Cherokee on an 8 inch skyjacker doubleflex lift and 35's. I can fit 37's but 35's are just as good on the street to the trails as they are on the trails. 37's start to get that high speed sway at 60+

    I agree I think overdrive would be the best first option for that truck.
    Without capable it seems out of the box the second thing I'd be looking at if it was a scalar parts to make the body different from stock like 3D parts angry eyes on the grill maybe a sporty style hood scoop personally the hardtop portion of the body I would paint black.

      Battery life was pretty good for such a big truck. I ran for 1-1/2 hours on each pack. Neither was dead when I was done. I trailed here and one other location and switched just so I didn’t have to in the middle of a video. I’d say crawling expect 2 hours from a 5000mah 3S pack.

      Definitely this could make a great 80s series landcruiser

    Great video. Are you using 3s or 4s? I see its rated at 4s but most are recommending 3s. Why is this

    • @westdesertwheeler
      @westdesertwheeler  3 года назад

      The KV on the motor is best suited for 3S. 4S can destroy the electronics. And they will be expensive to replace I’d suggest 3S

    Put some brass weights on that, and some better tires and I think I would make a big difference even though it's already cool

      Not sure it needs the weights, have you picked one up yet? Tires do well on it from my testing

    For something this large with a brushless system I’d have liked to see locking diffs to unlock and run some higher speed trails.

    • @westdesertwheeler
      @westdesertwheeler  3 года назад

      It does decent locked up. Not sure open diffs would make this a speed demon. It’s a solid axle heavy rig

      @@westdesertwheeler make it more controlled on faster trails. Not for rock crawling. When a locked axle leans over and lifts a tire all the torque and power drives through that wheel and tends to flip trucks over. Open diff the torque matches the opposite wheel which cannot develop any when lifted and it'll diff out instead of flip over. Stability.

      It's why my trx6 is way more fun to drive on trails than my capra. It also allows the larger truck to turn sharper and adds in a lot of scaleness by seeing one wheel spin like a real rig.

    Your thoughts on running a 1/10 powerful servo Reefs 555 or a 1/5 scale servo.

    • @westdesertwheeler
      @westdesertwheeler  3 года назад

      I would only go with a 1/5 scale. It makes more sense. It’s stronger and will run cooler

    Looking to mount Proline Trencher 4.3 1/5 scale wheels/tires (also open to better/different ideas, but want something Big for snow)... Seems like I'll need 17mm to 24mm adaptor/sleeves, anyone have a link to options? Yes, I will probably have to cut up the body to fit them, that is OK.
