It's Big. REAL BIG. The Axial 1/6 SCX6 Jeep JLU: Unboxing and First Run

[@CCxRC]

**Note** I was wrong in the video. It's only rated for 2s-3s lipo. My bad ***

[@CCxRC]

@@thor_4017 It's fast but not crazy fast. I just think it can handle it, but the weight might put some strain on the motor at that power

[@LargeeeScaleLife]

I really think they should’ve rated this for the higher voltage let’s be real most people that are gonna run a truck this big are going to want to run that higher voltage honestly I think it would probably take it if you use the old saying of volt up gear down I would probably drop the pinion a couple of teeth or increase the spur gear and run the higher voltage

[@viperracing2889]

Here's a comparison with a full-size counterpart, such as the TNT T-Rex Jeep JK (with 43 inch tires and a 121 inch stretched wheelbase). Width: 86" / 14.88" = 5.78 scale Length: 182" / 33.55" = 5.42 scale Height: 81" / 14.55" = 5.57 scale Wheelbase: 121" / 19.74" = 6.13 scale Weight: 6000 lbs / 25 lbs = 6.21 scale Tire height: 43.1" / 7.0" = 6.16 scale Rim diameter: 20" / 3.2" = 6.25 scale

[@flyingiggies7458]

I’m curious how 6000lbs/25lbs=6.21 scale. Is there some factor I’m missing?

[@viperracing2889]

@@flyingiggies7458 It's a 3D object, so if the full-size Jeep is 6,000 lbs the 1:6.21-scale Jeep should be 6,000 / 6.21 / 6.21 / 6.21 = 25 lbs.

Just want to say I got mine today and while I love it, I'm 99.999% sure I have the same slipper issue as you. Thankfully I had watched this video so when it started happening I immediately knew what it most likely was and didn't panic. I'll take it apart this weekend, tighten up the slipper, and hopefully be good to go. Thank you for another great video and for using this platform to share your experience as without it I would have been very confused as to what was going on and would have been pretty disappointed. It's still a little disappointing but I work on my rcs all the time so if that's all it is, no big deal. Thanks again and keep up the great work!

Makes me want to get into crawling, has some decent speed for only being 4s, makes sense though, anything higher wouldn't make sense for a crawler. It would be cool if they made a roller version as well... I feel like it might attract a new crowd into the crawler scene.

[@Cormano980]

You should try also steering wheel control, I saw someone making a Logitech into a transmitter, with Fpv total immersion

[@KS-wt9gj]

They missed the mark, just like Traxxas has done 3 or 4 times now with their TRX line. Absolute must for good scale looks; HARD BODIES. Tamiya RC4WD King Kong all have super scale hard bodies. You’d think these guys would have figured it out, they don’t really listen, still driven by the bottom line only.

[@nicholasmapes]

Yeah, I agree, a super heavy duty body is a good idea. Also adds a bit of weight which helps with scale handling as well

[@thejeepinrealtor5742]

Like any RTR, they are out together in mass quantities by people. Human error can always come into play. I haven’t seen any of the other have a problem. Mine just wasn’t tightened enough by whoever put it together. I didn’t think it’s a mass problem. But I wanted to show that there can be problems. My RC wasn’t “defective” it just need to be worked on. They are made to be able to be worked on. It wasn’t a broken part and it didn’t cost me any extra money.

Will be cool to see this out and about. REALLY want to see one next to the good old ClawBack - still the largest RC RTR that I am aware of to date - not including the Raminator. The price tag on the SCX 6 is no easy step though... Still a cool rig! Love the thumb toggle on the remote - GREAT for content creation! And the brushless system is impressive! Very curious how "6th scale" hard body models like New Bright "toy" style bodies might fit the chassis.

My slipper was loose from factory too Took it all apart fix the slipper put it back together tried my second run pinion gear is loose on the motor it just kept spinning had to take it apart again fix that and put it back together third run moving OK seems slow and really slow in reverse wondering if you’re having that problem too please let me know

[@CCxRC]

You may need to adjust the ESC for more reverse power. In the manual it explains it. I plan to do a video going through that process when I upgrade my servo and change my BEC setting in the ESC. It's not hard. Just have to listen to the beeps.
