    I bought the C10 last week. I had so much fun with it that I bought my woman this deadbolt in red. The dead bolt is way more rock crawler than the C10. It kills it right out of the box with no mods. The C10 definitely acts like a pickup truck compared to the dead bolt. Both are amazing trucks but with different attitudes.

    This is the best 1/24 (or 1/25 for the the Pro-Line Ambush) Crawler / Scaler ever made. Yes, better than the Losi. Love mine. My 1/24 ECX Barrage is still tons of fun but the SCX24 is ground up Axial and it shows.

    I got one and love it, once you figure out how to drive it without tipping it's game on. I am shocked on how capable this thing is and I have ran probably 20 packs through it the past couple days with no problems at all. If they make the other scx10ii in scx24 size I will but them all. Haven't touched my 10th scale's since I got this little beast. I also like the dogbones instead of cvds on the front, for a rig this light and small dogbones are perfect because they don't bind up on extreme turning angles like the cvds do.

    Adding a bit of weight with some steel or aluminum beadlocks makes this thing a lot more stable, It can climb, sidehill and descend with much more control. This thing really responds to mods well. Soon I'll be putting out some files for 3D printing new lowered body mounts and a front battery tray (low CG).
