Modified Axial SCX24 Gladiator - Mind-blowing scale rc 1/24 mini crawler

[@bcochener]

Looks like I have some scale 1/24th build competition now! Saw this on Reddit, nice to see it clearly here!! Great job Neil, a level of detail just like I like. I’ve got a Gladiator on order, so look out for a build. Keep the awesomeness coming guys! You rock.

Every time Neal is on the show you’re in for something amazing! 💯 wow. Great work friend. Thank you for having him come through!

[@project_rc]

This new body and wheel base opens up many roads for Axial. The longer wheel base makes it possible for many more interesting truck bodies. Great video and mods. Thinking about making this my 2nd scx24.

[@suemisslbeck7023]

Really amazing upgrades. Great job! Would love to have complete upgrade list with links.

[@furyss1tv184]

Just got mine getting ready to modify it

[@redroosterazrc]

Neil knocks it out of the park again! Well done.

[@ka4172]

High Performance and scale look in one piece great build!

[@NathanStorer-RC]

Man, that rig is freaking sweet!

[@klpbaron]

Awesome & great job ! When work , time , and love of the hobby all come together!

[@vizionct1]

Great video. Was on the fence on getting gladiator but watching your video helped me pull the trigger! Thanks

[@conradsteller1844]

That build is sick!!!

[@texasavage]

Great job guys! This looks amazing! Just picked one up for my son and had to have one myself. Lol These rigs are awesome. Thanks for the inspiration

[@davidsimpson363]

I use the reefs 99 micro winch on my 8+lb TRX4. It moves it with ease without adding much weight.

[@beesod6412]

Best RC Review guest, Always looking forward to what he'll bring by next. Thanks fellas!

[@edsadventures3575]

Neil did an amazing job with it. As always. Smart guy! I’m not into 1/24 scale at all. I like weight and 1/10 scale to me will always be the top scale. Anything bigger to me would be harder to store and parts for 1/10 are so easy to find. Love the vid! That gladiator would look even better as a 1/10. But that’s just my opinion. I respect all peoples hobbies and taste! Thanks

[@jasonh.2731]

There is a 10th scale Gladiator

[@edsadventures3575]

@@jasonh.2731 yes I did see that. But it doesn’t look like Neil’s 1/24 scale. The 1/10 scale is red and stock looking.

[@dirtyfingersninja]

wow, that is amazing work. the transfer to the other edge at the end of the video was cool shot.

[@rcdrives3882]

That's a cool rig, for sure! Great work!

[@shafiqjan1474]

Rock lights rule! I have a mtrc light set for my Deadbolt heavyweight build, just waiting for a good warm day to paint...

[@TexasMiniCrawlers]

@rcreview should try some parts from mofo rc, we specialize in scx24 parts. We already have high clearance links for the gladiator in resin and more parts coming. We would like to send some parts for you and Neil to check out!

[@silentjde]

I hope someone offers there resin printed parts for those of us who don’t have printers

[@ZYKLEMYER]

Awesome, Awesome job! Waiting on mine to be delivered.. You have given me so many ideas… THANK YOU!

[@DeliberateNRandom]

I'm really wanting to get this. I have the EMax ES08MDii in both of my SCX24s. I melted my links for high clearance. That servo will also fit the FMS Atlas.

[@muzicgr8]

Wow, you guys realy got it going on. Thank you so much for all the Great Videos. Gonna get a Gladiator in a few weeks.

[@Roadnuts86]

Nicely done as always guys! I just picked up one of the Gladiators and will be modding it in a similar fashion. Hoping for high clearance links, as the stock long links in the back hang up on everything! Steering looks amazing on Neil’s truck though! Gotta get those parts!

[@TexasMiniCrawlers]

Check out mofo rc, we have resin printed high clearance links in a tough and flexible resin

[@baxrok2.]

Nice job Neil.

[@DennisTingle]

Well done kabayans. Glad to see pinoy RC henyos. I'm planning to get my first crawler and opted to get the gladiator over bronco.

[@PeterCPRail8748]

Another fantastic build

[@RC.Time-Crawlers]

Looks great! I did come across a video from RC girl. I think she used a Matte clearcoat over her lexon body once, made it look real nice kind of got rid of that cheap plastic look..Don't get me wrong still looks great but maybe it could look better with out the shine. 🤷‍♂️.Takecare guys 🙋‍♂️

[@cmalt-z7171]

TinkerTime rc makes a 3d printed insert drop bed for the gladiator which adds room for scale accessories

[@turboash78]

Very badass guys!

[@ChrisGorman87]

Great job kid! I love the upgrades. Get some shocks though just for looks lol

[@MRCG68]

any time i need a straight impression about an rc model without brand A** lick or exagerate omg, beautiful ,amazing, awsome blabla and stupide face stuff like 4 years old kids THIS IS THE CHANNEL !

[@johnj2803]

Super nice, can you expound how you mounted the spare tire at the back? Kakaukha ko Lang ng Akin. I'm so happy I stumbled upon your channel. Mabuhay! 💪💪

Awesome upgrades!!!

Very nice 📺😀👍 And this winch is amazing 🚀💥💪

[@rcsteve710_]

He needs to try some of my brass high clearance links and steering links for the SCX24 gladiator!

[@Prince_Pig]

Neil is a magician. Would like to see him work his magic on the 1/12th Willy’s Jeep as it’s so scale but performance seems poor.

[@madmaxximus1234]

Awesome job 👏 👍 🤙

[@adrianau4246]

Do they make high clearance links for this yet? Or do any of the already made deadbolt links work etc ? Any idea?

[@originalkontrol]

Beautiful.

[@CoeShow619]

Did Neil mount that Komodo brushless motor to the stock plastic transmission? Need more detailed layout pics and video.

[@andrewrichey7374]

Wow that is sweet I love it

[@Art-zs6sl]

Saratoga? Nice area but wasn't aware there was much a crawler scene.

[@RCReviewChannel]

We have a couple amazing parks with rock features and a lot of natural creek trails in the foothills.

[@theSkavenger84]

Killer build

[@gcarr616]

Awesome build guys! Just got mine and looking to upgrade my electronics and motor just like you. Can you do a vid on how you went about placing all your upgrades in the frame? Thanks and keep the vids coming!

[@grumpawulf5801]

ganda neto sir!

[@Jbzy3000]

How were the rock lights installed. I love this kit

[@sitlos.]

Needs to put the oil filled shocks in if he didn’t yet. They make a really nice difference. Nice rig as always 👍

[@houstonrccrawlers6445]

They always leak oil

[@sitlos.]

[@slushblaster7523]

I am working on a similar build. Where did you place your reefs 99 winch? What receiver are you using for the gt5?

[@mentula3784]

After the final climb of the vid I have to get one of these

[@wildmangeorgesrcchannel6916]

I think I missed the part where you talked about the front inner fender wells. Is that a complete original file you made or can it be found some where on the internet?

[@CoeShow619]

Is that an inner fender liner for the C-10 or JLU that he attached the sliders to??

[@Raguvian]

Are you guys going to be upgrading links to metal versions as well? I don't see any link kits for the longer wheelbase yet.

[@adrianau4246]

Did you get the reef servo mount for this setup ? Where did you install winch ?

[@miltonrcadventure]

Awsome😃💪💪💪

[@fernsolo]

Very impressive 👏 👏👏

[@luisLP5752]

Amoizing stuff. Where did he mount the winch, and is he using a bec? I mean, I think I see it mounted at the front, but doesn't that bump with the steering servo? My only gripe is that white servo horn 😨

[@anthonymcgee4555]

Can you guys go over how to mount the winch on the scx24 gladiator

[@isaiah_b_3798]

I want to buy an extra battery or two for my gladiatior. What type of connectors does axial use? Any recommendations?

[@eeg209]

Simply amazing!! Is this a $500 SCX24 now?

[@bcochener]

Or more. These add up quick when you really build em out. Trust me.

[@jms493]

Easily $500

[@shanebennett9881]

How do you mount the servo for the winch

[@KaBoomOperator]

Ah, maganda!

[@ChrisGorman87]

I need a few pairs of those 3D printed hood vents to make a few of my trucks more scale. Where can I get them?

[@flipster2321]

Did you upgrade the shocks?

[@haideraljassani6468]

Would please make a video about the scx 6 jeep?

Neil, do you sell the file for the sliders?

Are those rock sliders on thingiverse? I’d like to try them out, other wise I’ll lengthen some for the JL from thingiverse

[@alfredosaugus705]

What brand light bar is he using??

Having to see that crappy taillight stickers next to the resin parts really kills it. I'd work on those . Nice rig though✌️

[@maciekm.4169]

amazing project! :O i want one !! sadly, IDK when this car would be available in Poland ... ;(

[@zsrc3623]

I accidentally plugged the battery into the motor connection on the ESC and the motor into that battery connection. The forward doesnt work anymore and reverse is very choppy, is this a motor problem now or an ESC?

[@Carlosinator]

Awesome build guys!👍🏻 Looks like axles have to be shaved to allow full turning radius when upgrading to brass steering knuckles?

[@Jebusisblatantidolatry]

Can we also get a link for the Amazon led controller????

[@TheMrjt09]

where is this guys youtube video? would be a goldmine of content for him to upload his build process and stuff

Wait.. you guys are in Saratoga? I'm in San Jose!!

[@DESOUSAB]

Oh, my, Dog...

[@RC_Rooster]

Could you please do axial wraith and axial bomber comparison? I know they've both been on the market for a while but I think it would still be a really good in depth video for you

[@RCReviewChannel]

We have to focus on new vehicles since we buy most everything and like to explore what folks are most interested to buy and upgrade now. Those sound like legendary vehicles though that shaped the category.

[@eriku7205]

Hi Neal I had an idea 💡 but I’m sure someone has thought of it let me know if you have heard of this or if you think it might work. I’m upgrading a mini z drift awd I upgraded front diff to a one way diff so it can roll freely when rear is spinning faster or during a slide..now here’s my idea what if crawlers had one way rear diff so when using %30 overdrive in front the rear wheels won’t drag they will roll freely when being pulled but still have drive forward not reverse (rear only)🤔

[@KILLSHOTTAS]

I have the blue gladiator. And the CAP and jeep. The gladiator is a great little beast. The 1 down fall is that axial cheaped out on the lights. There nowhere near as bright. I like to night crawl and was extremely disappointed with the lights.. everything should have been the same with this truck or even better. That's the only issue with it.

[@adrianau4246]

Damn show us how to do this..

[@jdsrcs8061]

Check out MOFO RC. They have high clearance links for the Gladiator. I just received mine yesterday, they fit great.

[@smcarmel]

How much to build me one? lol 😂
