| Bradley wants a RC rock crawler for his 8th birthday and I dont know squat about them. I have always bought Traxxas RC trucks but their crawler is too much money for me!
Any recommendations, like to get one that is RTC (Ready to Crawl) | |

| I have the Axial AX10 scorpian RTR ,I got it on ebay it's a very fun crawler.WE also have a Venom Creeper i would not recommend getting one of those they don't do good and the drive shafts keep coming apart. I would say go with the Axial or the Losi.  | |

| From what I seen so far it looks like the Losi night crawler or the Axial AX10 scorpian RTC are my top two so far. My LHS will have the AX10 in next week and will go check it out.
Have til June to get one, if you guys think about it, bring to spring ride, I would like to see them.
Matt, you buy them online, if so, who? | |

Matt, you buy them online, if so, who? no i got mine at hobby town. they match the prices of tower hobby , and that was the cheapest i could find it. i dont remember what i paid. i told my wife is was cheaper than it really was all the money i have spent on RC cars and the rzr in the past year is embarrassing! it was cash not credit but its still ridiculous .  | |
