Axial SCX24 1967 Chevy C10 Unboxing and First Run On My New Micro Crawler Course In My Office.

Lots going on in this episode. I'll be unboxing two Axial SCX24 1967 Chevrolet C10s. I really like these micro crawlers that Axial has come out with and the C10 is my favorite of the SCX24 bodies they've offered so far.
Once the unboxing is done, I show how they handle on my micro crawler course I'm unveiling for the first time on video here. It's not done, but it was usable for the testing purposes. Hope you enjoy it.

Hi kev you need to make a vid of one

[@CCxRC]

you've got a fleet of micros...what's one more? Plus...this one handles better because it looks better - that's science right there. 😂

Get one kev I jut got the blacked out grey one

just got one today im having more fun with it than my slash 4x4

[@UAERCADDICTS]

I AGREE

[@genemaster74]

I recently wanted to get into trail trucks/crawlers but when i went shopping here in Australia i lost my mind. Im on a disabled pension and base price for a quality truck was to much for me, but i saw these little scx24's and saw it had a healthy aftermarket. So i bought a deadbolt last night, and so my new hobby is born!.... cheers for the vid m8.....From The Land Downunder

[@Lucas-hk6gn]

hey don’t copy the story of how i got a RC car. I litterally did the exact same thing! lmao

[@ryleytomlinson2480]

I just ordered one too. It sucks they have to be so expensive cus I wanna get a 1/10 scale but there too expensive aha

[@Super1handed_rc]

Wow watching this is crazy I was so hooked on this little RC

[@SnarkyRC]

I bought a SCX24 years ago. I probably drove it 10 minutes and then put it on the shelf. The charger that comes with it is more of a fire hazard than anything else. I always recommend using a proper balance charger. -Matt

[@32mpd]

Very nice. My son and I have been running these RC’s for 6-7 years now and love it. I enjoy working on them and u grading to perfection.

[@HARRYS_SLOTCARS_N_RC_CRAWLERS]

Nice review ...its a pity the tires rub straight out of the box. I can't understand why manufacturers allow this to pass as a ready truck 🤔 thanks for sharing....Harry

[@secret5.]

I like your course but I just use large rocks and stack them where I want. It's much easier to change around and you get a realistic surface. My favorite is a large granite boulder, I use that as my ultimate climb test.

I made spacers for the springs to raise the body up to keep tires off the body

[@think2cre81]

I just bought the blue c10, it is amazing how much cooler it looks in person. But the tires rubbing on the body was to much for me . So I took some of the wheel wells out with my dremel tool and a light abrasive cylender bit . And what a difference In performance and it looks even better. I took off the chrome plastic front bumper and put on a aluminum black with the red anodized tow shackles that made a big difference in the ability for the tires to hit the rocks a bit more easily, instead of the bumper being in the way . Also made it look even more amassing. My grandkids and I set up a nice course out in the backyard and have so much fun . Even my 4 year old makes it around a fairly tough course without tuning over, Once in while . He gets so excited my 7 year old makes it quite often without a crash . I had to buy two more lol .

[@arilandedflat]

Hey! Great Vid! I just wanted to say that running the truck out of the box w/ o charging it can overdischarge the battery for it's first charge. This almost happened to me so charge before running. I realised this when my charger started blinking red and wouldn't charge my lipo. After recieving a new charger, however, things started to smoothen out. But Please. Charge First.

[@johnsimpsoniv2294]

I have a scx24 Jeep and I put o ring on the shock to act as a spacer between the spring and shock body because the body rubbed a bit on the fenders also . I also relocated the top shock position to bolt holes on the frame instead of the shock perch and it climbs so much better. Wheel weights make so much of a difference they are definitely worth getting .

[@addicted2rcs49]

I love it mate, I want one of each! They both look awesome. 👍 👌 Thanks for the video buddy. I'm from the motherland of UK 🇬🇧

[@nanoplays1295]

Here's a tip to anyone that's going to buy this truck if you read this comment it will save you time and money the Chargers for these cars can only be charged through most laptops any other phone charge port is too strong and will fry your charger. it has to be to 2v output more will fry charger. I recommend buying a quality charger for this truck if you plan on enjoying it often. Other than that the truck run smooth

[@CCxRC]

Good tip. I just melted mine the other day.

[@zapazoid]

Where can you get a 2v charger beat buy and online 5v is all I see??

Nicely done. Thanks!

[@CCxRC]

yeah buddy. My computer is on the other half half of the room...and I sit and work at it for 10-16 hours a day some times editing videos. Nice way to take a mental break.

[@mzondi1970]

Looks great so does your track. Would love to pick one up but as an extrovert I don't like doing this stuff by myself. No one around me is into RC. An option for traction is to sprinkle sand as you were saying but instead of glue maybe spray the spots after you put the sand down with clear coat paint? Get a clear matte finish. You would not have to put the sand everywhere just on the places when your tire is sliding off the edge

[@darealkosmo]

Neat course man! I'm getting my green C10 tomorrow so I figured I'd check this out and get hyped. I love how my main concern about the green one was the chrome finish chipping and sure enough it chips haha. dang it! I feel like the adjustable shock mounts would help raise the body more and maybe get rid of the wheel rub.

[@CCxRC]

The green one looks really good. I'm just going to buy a chrome paint pen to touch it up with. You are probably right about the shocks

[@darealkosmo]

@@CCxRC not a bad idea on the pen! I was going to give it that rusty look if and when it gets chipped enough.

[@TheWright1]

The SCX24 is awesome! I have the JLU and it is a little beast. My 2 year old son loves driving it to. I think I need to make a course like that. Turned out awesome!

[@CCxRC]

very cool! You should totally build something like it. I think I have about $60 into the course so far. The biggest expense is the plaster cloth. People make cheap versions of it, but I didn't find that it worked nearly as well

[@TheWright1]

Thanks for the tip. $60 isn’t bad for hours of fun!

[@hobbycow5346]

With these trucks back in stock, I have the green one coming today! Jeep still on the way. I observed your comment about the body rubbing the tires and plan to do a mod I saw elsewhere on KZbin where they just raise the body by raising the front body posts and lowering the rear body mounting bracket. It looked to work really well, and I like it because, as opposed to a full lift, it only raises the body which has a lighter mass than lifting the whole chassis.

[@Cbam871]

I shaved the fenders on my jeep. No rubbing now, I also got rc4wd wheels an tires

[@MR87xj]

Like the course. And like the idea of able to move it around and change out parts. I might have to steal that idea.

[@FrankygoestoHobbywood]

that's a nice and tricky course, excellent… never seen the 1:24th scale crawlers in real, so i'm impressed by your video..!

[@CCxRC]

It was fun to finally see video of trucks on the course. Pretty cool looking. Now to get a banner printed that looks like a scene in the background. :)

[@keithlea6804]

Go to hobby lobby and get some mod pogs sealer and a bag of corse modeling sand .lightly wet your corse with the sealer sprinkle sand where you need traction. A squirt bottle works great for applying sealer.

[@dretech]

I can't find them anywhere - all sold out! so I just decided to watch this video over and over again!

[@stpbasss3773]

That sucks, my local hobby shop has like 30 of them lol maybe more.

[@mdemers767]

I like your addition of the "creek" to the course. I was thinking that on the next build (or my own) rather than simply painting the depression in the course blue to represent water, you could instead add a resin inlay like some table builds have on here. I think it might look a little more realistic (you could even mold in some tiny fish), and the slickness of the resin might simulate the reduced traction of water. Anyway, just thinking out loud.

[@crbalch1]

I want that green one. awesome job on that course

[@CCxRC]

The green one has grown on me...not going to lie.

[@andyrichey1192]

I just learned a tipI Tony, you could set the preload on these shocks , if you look real close, there's a tiny little ring that pulls down , I think it's called a friction ring, I pull Down holds pretty good, works a lot better

[@fernsolo]

Yup, those little things are fun, I ordered me a clear Chevy body for my deadbolt, as much as this things are selling I don't know why proline is not coming up with parts, great review 👍

[@CCxRC]

That's the way to do it. Then you can paint it however you want.

[@fernsolo]

Yup

[@gobybike99]

We bought two deadbolts but you can buy the truck body and paint it? That would be cool.

[@MrsRabbit8]

Those batteries typically leak. Unless they have fixed that with this one. I hope they will have that body available soon! Thanks for the video.

[@CCxRC]

What batteries? The AA that go in the controller?

[@MrsRabbit8]

@@CCxRC yes sir, I didn't really believe it, kind of blew it off... Both of mine leaked. For the 1/24 barrage, and the scx24. Wish I would've not used them, because the acid eats away at the connections, and decreases conductivity.

[@MrsRabbit8]

Not sure if i was clear. The batteries for the controller, they leak quite regularly.

[@themikelee]

Thanks for the video, but I'm super disappointed that you didn't compare the C10 to the Jeep and Deadbolt versions!

[@Still-Sitting]

For grip just brush on some texture paint that they use for steps👌

[@3props_does666]

Very cool Tony! Great little tips for the new guy's as well.

[@GeezerGramps]

I really like the looks of your indoor course & the fact that it’s portable is even neater. I’d be interested in a video of how you built it. I had a 69 C10 1:1 that was that same color green, so that would be my choice. Nice review

[@xxthegamecollectorxx4673]

i just tried to order one of the c10s on amazon, 140 right now! that's stupid. I have a yellow jeep and the other white jeep that i body swapped for a custom painted body. i'm addicted though, the green c10 looks great i need to get to my hobby shop tomorrow. already bookmarking custom 3d printed parts for it! Also I used your plaster cloth method to make part of my own scale crawler course. it's now spanning my whole 8' by 4' table saw surface. so thanks for the ideas! going to move it into my basement soon and just go nuts with it.

[@CCxRC]

That is awesome to hear about your track! I want to expand mine a little more.

[@gobybike99]

That would be great to see

[@ShenRC]

😁👍 Awesome Tony! Thanks for the shout out... definitely use the grease method it works great, The up1 grease is really good but you should be able to use any thick tacky grease in the shock bodies. I like the blacked out version! Nice course!

[@CCxRC]

I was thinking about trying my CowRC Udder Butter. Thanks for the tip!

[@ShenRC]

@@CCxRC I never used it but I hear it's like marine grease just make sure it's kind of sticky.. the up1 is like tamiya antiwaer grease but not a thick and it's synthetic it works really good. let me know how it works out.

Thanks for these reviews man, and I love the scale course. I just picked up both of these as well, and was looking for some inspiration for a little course for my daughter and I to work on. Keep up the good work, and looking forward to catching up on your vids as I am a new sub.

[@motododo4626]

I had a losi micro crawler and it was nice and I got loads of upgrades but the one thing the didnt have was a good looking body. So I ordered a 24th scale model kit of a 1980 chevy plow truck and painted it flake purple and I loved it. But the body weighed more than the whole rig so I sold it. This c10 is making me go nuts I want it so bad.

[@rcguy5793]

Nice buddy. As far as the extra grip your looking for. Get deck paint with the grip grit in it. You can have them tint the paint also

[@DMarko22]

You just sold me one!

[@canadiangoose1451]

The c 10 has the headlight bracket in it so you can swap the bumper lights and put them in the headlights spot

[@SterlingDoster]

Hi Man, thanks for making the video. I watched it multiple times to help me out with decal placement. Have one of these on backorder for my daughter but she really wanted a pink body so I had to go the custom route. Body arrived quickly, still waiting for the rest of the truck. Anyways, I tell you all this to say; the clear body kit comes with a bunch of extra decals including the door one you like on the green truck. If there's a way to privately message via KZbin, send me your address, I'll send you my extra stickers as a thanks for making such good content! My daughter picked other door decals... At any rate, thanks for the video, well done, I just subscribed.

Paint it with a roll on bed liner

[@edgarehu5268]

You could also put a hook on the shelf to make it wider we can always take it off food for thoughts🙈

[@GoFindAsafeSpace]

What you could do is put down some spray adhesive and throw some sand down on the course for added grip.

[@CCxRC]

My only worry about that is that the adhesive will attract a lot of dust and things too.

[@CCxRC]

maybe a clear coat over it.

[@GoFindAsafeSpace]

Yup. I think that'll work great. A coat of spray adhesive, a dusting of sand then clear coat it. 😁👊

[@bbeckers24]

Here is the problem with this body style, and I am confused how they got it licensed. C-10 meant 2wheel drive. The 4x4 had the K-10 designation.

[@jonwalraven1883]

Thank you for understanding that

[@Tripledoffroadbbq]

While true as that statement is the body panels from c10 to k30 will interchange from 67-72 most people don’t realize that’s how gm designates the 2wd models from the 4x4 is the c and k in the vin if they called it a k10 it would cause more confusion. That and gm shot them selves in the foot with the k5 blazer as it’s still a k5 in 2wd or 4x4 model

Im curious as to whether or not they improved the rubber for the tires. The Scx24 tire rubber has been a week point, though the size is a strong point. These ones look a little smaller, but maybe have better rubber? Lol

I asked a follow up question first :) Let me know which batteries to be looking for leaks on and then I'll look at the tires. :)

I really like the size of the scx24 deadbolt and jeep tires, but they aren't very squishy. Thought about conditioning them for more stickiness. Someone said wd40, but not sure if I'll buy a product.

I hope you still get the Kyosho models for that.

[@CCxRC]

Leaning toward not getting them. Watch RC Reviews videos. Don't want to deal with the AAA batteries in the vehicle or having to mod it for LiPo. Not sure why they used that antiquated system in a new Mini-z product. I'm torn because I don't want to support lack of progression, but I also know that in parts of the world where getting small LiPo batteries might be hard...people can still get AAA batteries. I'm frustrated by their decision-especially with their luxury price tag. If a plug and play conversion comes out and people show that these are really capable...I may rethink that. I don't want to drop the $200 on it to find out. I'm going to watch more videos of it before I decide.
