Why Is This RC Crawler So Expensive?

[@darthjarjar2742]

Kevin's logic $100 RC: why is this so expensive? $450 RC: dirt cheap RC review!

Little more speed is always nice. Cheers Stu

Welcome aboard dude. I haven't done any mods but some people fit bigger wheels , that will give it a bit more speed.

Anyone else notice the vice grips on the chair at 15:26? 😂

[@pjc2166]

Have you done a review on scx24 1:24 scale. For the price $120 and it is hobby grade it is the most superior mini crawler. I have more fun with it than my scx10ii. The only thing I found it needed was the shocks lowered to the chassis to help clear the tire rub on the front fenders. To do that I had to drill small holes in the the chassis in the front. The rear had holes to use.

[@hammbone852]

Can you get bigger wheels that will fit on those to make it a little more capable?

[@stack8778]

Awesome vid Kevin, I do think you explained the differences about the cheaper units to a better Rc grade unit , I also think your spot on about people being able to start off with something that’s a lot less money and then they still get to learn exactly how everything works and then their more likely to move up to a real Rc because they can better understand the workings and the movements without having learnt a big lesson by wrecking a real Rc like Traxxas ect... and losing interest because they had to spend extra money fixing something they really didn’t get to enjoy before truly understanding it 1st ! But I don’t ever think that the Chinese Rc’s will ever replace top notch Rc’s because the Chinese stuff aren’t even close to the type of Rc quality you get from the top Rc builders , and overall the Chinese Rc’s aren’t far off the top Rc prices , so you really do get what you pay for when it comes to buying 1 from the top Rc builders ! Keep up the Great vids ! 👍✌️

The red devil don't even have enough power to spin the wheel under a lil bit of pressure bc of that it gets stuck on everything bc the tire just stops and won't spin

[@zero-by6ib]

The red one needs a bit more weight to climb it. The reason for more weight in the front is because it provides more grip
