[@jordanmohn1159]

Mini crawler fan here and its a rainy day. I appreciate that video so much. Just what I wanted to see. Thanks Greg!

[@TheRCScotsman]

Perfect timing, Sir! I've been looking at getting a mini crawler. Thanks for this.

[@Raguvian]

The TRX4M and UTB18 are having a ton of aftermarket parts roll out from Treal and Injora so it's a super exciting time to get either of them!

[@rcdriver]

Yup! Crazy how fast the aftermarket companies are jumping on them and how quickly they’re getting parts out.

[@D-ayytoodap-yay]

I know they have a ton of aftermarket parts and that’s what is making me want to get into the trx4 world. I only stuck with axial 24 scale because I bought a few bundle buys on eBay so I have a lot of Scx24 trucks and parts but I can’t ignore the performance of the trx4s now

[@SteadfastRC]

Totally agree with your number one pick Greg, That's My overall favorite as well and I own a lot of the vehicles in this video. You just can't beat that two speed

[@rcdriver]

Yup, my mind was blown when I switched gears and that thing took off like a 1/10th model lol!

[@kadeplatt7683]

Just subscribed! I’m happy with the order that you put them in. I have a TRX4M and I love it. I also have a Axail Bronco that is upgraded to the nines with injora, treal, and other parts. The fist video of I watch was awesome and I hope to see more in the future!😆

[@fairrc]

Nice list! We love the Doug for its quirkiness, too. It has a lot of personality and it's a lot of fun to modify.

[@TheShopMiniRC]

❤❤❤

[@romeolantanoRC]

Thank you for sharing. I loved all the RC cars . Greetings from one of your subscribers

[@kermitthecrog7262]

I just got into it yesterday. My friends and I LOVE my Bronco

[@mikecoe3254]

This is a FANTASTIC video!!! Great to see tins of options all at once!

[@ufoparanormal-o4l]

Fantastic job brother you did excellent I loved it I wouldn't pick any better very much

[@riggsfamilyrc]

That’s a nice top 10 list I have two of them the gladiator and the TRX 4M awesome little tucks💯🔥👌

[@REACTIVETERRAINRC]

*They come alive on our indoor terrain pushing them to there limits.

[@ReadySetRC]

Superb list. I can't even think of one to add.

[@jessicajay2484]

according to yoru opinion, which one is the best scale crawler 1/18?

[@WCPRCModelsCraft]

Such a cool video and review, really enjoyed that. New sub. Keep up the great work. Love the van

[@omega_rc]

Been looking for a small crawler for in house use. Thank you for this brotha! 🤙🤙🤙

[@ginzero]

Great video, I'm just starting to get into the hobby. Will start with 1:24.

[@BULTHedit]

rc crawlers are amazing!

[@ron486]

Imo I thought the Traxxas rig preformed more like a 1/10 scale then the rest.

[@MiniRCGarage]

Rock Van is awesome, love mine.

[@rivierarc]

Once I have my model/hobby room in the garden I am soo buildling a small crawler course in it

[@rcdriver]

I’m thinking about building a small outdoor crawler spot too.

[@rivierarc]

@@rcdriver definitely something to do. I am lucky enough to have a 'spare' area at the top end of my garden. Would love to build a course for 1/10 and lower. It is on the list, just very low down unfortunately

[@rivierarc]

@RcDrivers_Online aren't spammers brilliant... NICE TRY

[@EriMCardenasRC]

Axial nailed it with the scx24 and the utb18👌

[@microrigs]

Absolutely agree with the list, and specially liked the approach and comments on each of them. Lot of discussion about UTB18 scale name, yet a great rig for the money, and a MASSIVE success of the Traxxas that will bring the whole small scale scene to a new level...

[@saturnfivehynrgrc581]

Thanks Greg!!!

[@createsomefun]

There are more aftermarket parts available for the element ecx rgt etc available.

[@kylehawes4287]

Price one thing and more than that build course inside out about anything and yeah super awesome prices so win win i have full size crawlers but my trx4m bronco and Rover get all the use

[@TheShopMiniRC]

That UTB is nearly twice the size as most of the others in the list.

[@johngrant1337]

great video thanks

[@ToGrimmToWin]

I'm going to get an fms.i have the axial scx24 already

[@joeconlon4604]

I’ve got the TRX4M and Atlas 6x6, I’ve run my TRX4M more then my Atlas 6x6

[@PatchsOhulahan]

I think I know which one I want them I watch this and I want FOUR of them

[@WATCHMEGOBROKE]

Great video but how in the hell did you miss WPL C24-1 Km??? It should atleast be in the conversation

[@ToGrimmToWin]

I like the forward mount motor on the element. I'd like to use that transmission and transfer with the portal axles on the fms24 lol but I still want the 2 speed

[@createsomefun]

fms and element are the same manufacturer The rgt v2 has been out for a while and that is what the element is. They just import them. So they are wpl and rgt etc, it seems this channel just covers the companies that import them and rebrand them

[@RCBOSS1969]

Thank you!

[@kennethwelty1190]

Did Panda fix the crappy driveshafts bad rubber band. Rots out fast weather it's been driven or not I got 8 most all were broke.

[@ToGrimmToWin]

Metal on v2 no rubber oring now it's metal

[@danielfox3199]

Firehorse?

[@fairrc]

Good shout

[@danieljackson443]

I think wpl doesn't get enough credit for small scale they do 1/16 to 1/14 with some unreal upgrades ive got 2 fj cruisers and a trail finder they're excellent crawlers

[@islandrc-duke1972]

cool top 10 mini crawlers

[@Woodmat1]

Looking to get into crawling and so on and I was just windering do fms models come with a controller?

can you make a video of the top 10 stock crawlers in 1:10 scale. what is best truck for the money?

[@dustinrossi9384]

Hobby quarters has the trx4m

[@TasosX]

What a great channel. You're doing great job. I have a question. What is your opinion about the sg 2401 mercedes 1/24 ? I Just buy it and i want your opinion because you have big experience. Thank you.

[@rcdriver]

Unfortunately I don’t have experience with that. Looks like it would be ok to drive around indoors. But probably has limited capability and little aftermarket support.

[@TasosX]

@@rcdriver Ok thank you very much for your help .

[@user-fq6qp6xz3i]

you should do Goolsky HBX 2098B 1/24 2.4GHz 4WD 4WS

[@aladinsane5771]

I missed 1 crawlerin your list, in particilar the Furitek Cayman, and also the best upgrades and for the trx4m and your number one come from furitek, the komodo and mini komodo brushless engine upgrades....

[@rcdriver]

The Caymen came out after this video was made.

[@HobbyPerfeXion]

A little surprised the Element was on this list. I have one and while I agree it's pretty capable and a nice design, the aftermarket just doesn't seem to be there for it. Interested in seeing the project you mentioned involving the Sendero. Thanks for this as I'm currently looking to expand my collection and this gave me something to think about!

[@createsomefun]

There is a ton of aftermarket. Most people just don't import them.

[@HobbyPerfeXion]

@@createsomefun where? I've been searching but haven't found much. If you could share some info on where you've found stuff, that'd be great!

[@Jay-ws7tv]

Thoughts on the FMX18?

[@AEADVHQ]

What upgrades can you get for the enduro 24?

[@osbornerc9256]

Texoma slayer or the mazz designs cheatcode both lcg mini crawlers

[@petrmatlas2523]

Hi, can you do mn99s review?

[@lambosharkboy]

Is axial that bad that it’s not on this list or did I miss it lol??

[@blitzrc4713]

You need to try a hbx devastator if you haven't I also really don't get why wpl kits aren't more popular love there ESC receiver sound kit combo and 2 speed box

[@mikecoe3254]

what kind of WPL 1/18 would you recommend? How are the durability on those?

[@blitzrc4713]

@@mikecoe3254 the kit ones c14 km c44 km b 36 km so you have to buy electronics separately and there ver 3 kits go great you can buy any of these rtr and upgrade to metal driveshafts etc

@@blitzrc4713 are there any RTR ones you recommend?

[@blitzrc4713]

@@mikecoe3254 the b 36 or c 14 are both great just expect to have to put metal driveshafts on them at some stage

[@Super_Mario_Fpv]

Which ones are brand names? So it's easier to buy upgrades.

[@Reissda28]

For me the wpl c24 is the best

[@ThenpcDaniel]

Is the fms atlas 6x6 good?

[@V3lk0n]

Unfortunately they doesn't seem like they sell in europe.

[@mucahittascioglu7703]

I'm surprised there's no FMS FCX18 LC on the list.

[@rcdriver]

The FCX18 LC didn’t exist when this video was made 10 months prior to its release.

[@mucahittascioglu7703]

@@rcdriver I just noticed the video release date :)

[@Cylonegaming]

Can you do your cheapest rc please

[@sarahbee6881]

my friend tried to fill his fms shocks with oil and it did not work😅

[@frankhernigle8102]

The trx4 isn't sold out. Traxxas released it without having stock. My local shop has only gotten 4 of the force shipped and 7 or 8 of the 30 pre orders he has. Ridiculous

[@ozzie3056]

In stock now.

[@BenSuzi1980]

how could u forget WPL???.....

[@gabrielpichardo1492]

Im very surprised that you dont have any WPL rigs on there

[@createsomefun]

There is wpl in there, just by a different name.

[@gabrielpichardo1492]

@@createsomefun I didn’t catch it. Which one?

[@createsomefun]

@@gabrielpichardo1492 I kind of just assumed. But for the most part any small 6 wheel and most fms and rc 4wd stuff is wpl. Topacc seems to be the parent but have a hard time tracing it after wpl and injora and rgt. Shenzhen micro lin I believe is a big manufacturer.

[@aidanscott8329]

Hbx devastator

[@rctraildriversuk-lone-wolfvide]

dont agree about the trax 4M its over priced for what you get here in UK its £179 UKS if i wanted a 1/18 i would get an FTX at nearone hundred less

[@Slaters_RC]

Like a $5 difference in price here in the USA

[@ka4172]

The Rock van need an transfercase gear upgrade,broke first day! Ha ha ha! My SCX 24 way more durabel!

[@createsomefun]

Lying about scale IS a big deal! They are NOT 1/24

[@Sully1500]

Which ones?

[@ElCuh97]

True, I compared my diecast car with my scx24, the rc car was like twice the size

[@MiketheMG]

1/16?

[@mr.md-11klm11]

Chevrolet Apache is the best rc crawler, the ugliest is pOwEr wAgOn🤮

[@LogansRCOverland]

I have the scx24 gladiator and love it, however I went to run it one day and the steering and throttle were all jacked up. I've tried a couple things like rebinding it and adjusting the settings but I think the esc just went bad all of the sudden. I didn't get it wet or anything it just stopped working. Does anyone have any idea whats wrong with it? I've done some research but couldn't find anything.

[@gryyta9617]

some nut or screw overtightened? Everything needs to sit extremely loose....

[@carlosjuarez7449]

I have a bunch of shift 24 receivers, and been putting them in my 24 scales when the break. They work just fine
