This style of Trailing has GOT to be the Future! The capabilities of a 1/8th scale crawler are definitely increased over their smaller counterparts - the 1/10th scale electric trail truck. Even without the fancy upgrades I did (which was few), this truck stands on its own. The aggressive way it attacks the trail, and the suspension is awesome. I am really happy with the center of gravity as well. It seems to WANT to be on its wheels, and I like that. I really put the truck to the test today. I was running it on a 3s lipo battery, as well as the motor and esc are stock. This setup was able to handle the slightly more heavy, much more grippy tires I have installed. The stock esc could use a better drag brake.. but Im certainly not complaining. The drag break is just fine.. but in a competition setting.. I like being about to program my drag/motor brake.
I do get hung up more on the rocks with the all aluminum diff and axle covers.. but, for me this replicates what it would be like if I was truly off road in a larger vehicle.
