I would have to disagree Joe , in my opinion Ecto was the winner

Think the Ecto took it actually. Based on Ecto making Crawly where the pro didn’t. Would like to see a re-match. Put the 25% gears from Team KnK in Ecto and get the brass on the front of the pro. Then let’s see how they perform. ❤ this content. Thank you! You are the cream of the crop the pick of the litter!

Exactly what should happen, I also thought the Ecto took the over all.

It was close but i too would have to say ecto just nudged out pro. I also would love to see ecto on the proline pro x tires.

I say the Ecto is the winner. Those trucks even in stock form never cease to amaze me

Ecto for the win. Both are awesome!

Well in my opinion, I would have to say that the Ecto was the winner by a hair. I have the green Ecto, but I think I will have to get a pro as well. I will tell the wife it's for research purposes of course!!!!🤣🤣🤣🤘🤘🤘

Pound for pound I might go with ecto. Just sayin

YEP!!

Ecto is a beast and everyone that has one knows they have a mysterious self righting system when they fall. Ecto is just one if not the best rtr out of the box since the Capra. Ecto performance is really 50% tire choice. Hate saying that but it's ridiculously true. It's just an amazing truck. Getting a second. Thanks for your videos Joe!

i thank the ecto took it too, if you put the fusion pro 2300 on the ecto, it would beat the tar out of the axial pro, sorry, i love axial but be fair, the fusion pro is the bomb!!!!!!!!!

I myself would have to say ecto is the winner. The scx10 pro was purpose built to crawl and the ecto can do a lot as an rtr. Ecto is not necessarily purpose built or is he lol. I'm interested in seeing your original red comp truck go against the pro. I just have to see.

Great video... your comparisons and assessment of the differences is always the best. I totally agree, my Ecto has been my go to for quite a while now. What a surprising rig! I am in the middle of buying parts and building the pro, so this is great! You're a lot of peoples go-to guy on RC. Thanks a ton Joe!!!

❤ECTO such a GREAT preforming truck. The Pro is AMAZING but I'm a ELEMENT fan boy I. Take care Joe hope you have a great week sir 🇬🇧🇺🇲🕊️✌🏼🤩

A amazing VS!!! THK's for the Share!

Love my Ecto, and love your comparisons. Some up front weight on the pro might change a few things. Thought the Ecto looked a little smoother, but both great rigs!! Thanks Joe!!!

Joe, I have 2oz of weight in each front Gmade 1904s and I couldn't be happier with how planted this truck is. Clearly, axle weight is better...but as you've said, it's hard to come by. Love the head to head competitions!

Right on

Lots of good info. I've got a Pro on the way in the next delivery release, can't wait.

Ecto won gatekeeper. It got the hook and climbed it. Pro took a bit of a cheater line. and I think pro did cliffhanger quicker because even the second attempt with the ecto was close to a one shot so you were slower to back up and readjust. But overall, very different trucks and excited to see the old ecto hang with the comp oriented pro.

As already mentioned put 25% gears in the ECTO. Game changer

I have both trucks & I do agree with your findings🤛

I like the side beside comparing 😊👍👋🌍

I'll go with Ecto.. 25% OD that's it...

I love your videos dude you do such a great job with everything. 😀😀

Great review as always! I agree w the results. You havent added any brass knuckles to the pro yet either, itll be even better then.

My vote is the Ecto. Seemed to get over and around most obstacles easier and more fluid. Love your videos!!!! Great comparisons and videos. I have the Element builder kit V2 Nd love it.

Just recently purchased an ecto, and excited to see that it can compete with the scx10 pro.

I feel a different set of tires is in order, jconcepts tusk or proline pro-x's. Definitely going to make a difference with some brass on the pro

My Rock Pirates Kraken rails will be here today but honestly I’m torn between making the switch or getting more seat time with the pro the way it is. I don’t have an Ecto yet but I have to say I’m sold, I’ll have one shortly!

I'm going with most of the people and give it to the Ecto!! A RTR with minimal upgrades and slightly cheaper. I think more points should be awarded for one that completes a line over one that doesn't!! 😁 Either way I think both trucks are great. I love my Ecto and when the Pro gets back in stock I'll probably pick one of those up too!! Thanks for the great video!!!

I would have to give it to the Ecto based on the how the vehicles drove. I wouldn’t put as much stock into the times even though it is a measurable point. With these two as well I’d take the Ecto into battle at a comp over the Pro. Maybe once there’s some brass on the front of the Pro it’ll start to pull ahead.

I believe you are close enough to us to make this. You would not be disappointed at our place.

Does any know if 10.3 straight axle brass really fits the PRO. I’m itching for some weight up front. Nice comparison joe I really thought the PRO would sweep it but I’ve never driven an ECTO 👍

Very amazing test, i like your video❤ Ecto is more cheaper but he did the best

Ecto! Awesome.

If one truck goes somewhere, another truck just can’t go that should count worth more than one point. I gave the overall to the ecto. Great comparison.

I love the ecto. Great rig

Great video! Ecto wins as I watch but I'm not driving...Only thing I have that best my ecto is my Negative G TC and its easily twice the money I have in my ecto.

How about the ecto in the power hobby chassis? Wonder if should stick with 10.2 or get an ecto for it

That would be a very tough call. How much was spent on the ecto vs the pro to get almost the same result? As far as looks go I would go with the ecto! Great comparison of the two though!👍😁😎✌️

With that body, the pro is barely any more scale looking than the old comp crawlers. I'd like to see it head to head with a night crawler.

Ecto has tuning and very specific parts to help it, the ecto had probably close to a half in on wheelbase. For me the more Capable rig is the winner, but I wouldn’t vote till you get that pro dialed in and maybe back those turnbuckles out so they have the same wheelbase just for testing. 👍

@ExocagedRC

Жыл бұрын

good points, the pro is about as stock as it can get considering the chassis and driveline

As tested, what's the cost difference between the two?

It would be very interesting to see this competition with pure stock cars.

I figured if anyone knew the answer you may. I have no knowledge of element . Are the green , yell and black ecto all the same . Only the black one has the patina paint but under the body are they all the same? And do the rear link arms cause that much of a issue crawling? Thank you any and all who reply Cheers🎉

Maybe your SCX10Pro has just 57/58/59% Frontweight-Bias, and wants a bit more. SSD00472 Brass Knuckles for SCX10 III Straight Axle should fit. Or from Treal. Or from China. Or Axial will make some soon (with carbon chassis rails and so on)

Value for money, ecto wins :)

Good comparison. I think the Ecto won, but i like seeing how each one does on different obstacles. What helps a rig in one situation, hurts in another.

hi Joe👋, great comparison👍. maybe i am the only one who doesn't like the ecto😅. for my pratice i prefer portal axle🤗, i dont like the front axle of element rc. and honestly i prefer my trailrunner upgraded to the Ecto😊, because it's a great climber and really nice to drive it👍. it remains a picky opinion😉, I admit that the ecto is an excellent machine👍, apart from the original tires, which is a shame... have a nice day✌️

Why do you think axial went with a straight axle instead of a portal axle ?

good job watching the video.. it convinced me to keep my ecto.. I'm not impressed with the axial...

ECTO for the win!!

Was the pro in underdrive at cliffhanger?

🔥

The ecto all stock besides the few things u said?

Ecto is a beast for any obstacle.

not into crawlers myself, but has anybody tried brass wheel rims?

I think that's the first time I've seen you go down cliffhanger.

@ExocagedRC

Жыл бұрын

I think so too

Imo that was an ecto win

For the money ecto but both did great

Man…. and u were saying that the Scx10 pro would keep up with portal lcg builds. After watching this I’d have to disagree. Still love the vids though keep it up 👍

Some brass on the pro and it would dominate that test! Each have their pros and cons and perform differently as stated…

Gotta give it to the Ecto. Pro being more controlled on an obstacle that Ecto completed as well, shouldn’t score the same as an obstacle Ecto walked up, but pro could not complete.

I believe the pro would get Crowley with some shock bands.

Both look like capable rigs but I like the ecto

A little brass on the Pro probably would of made a difference.

Seems like the Ecto won just by watching the video.

The electronics are very different by owners choice.

Ecto rules 😁😎

Clearly Ecto is the king! Crowley was the decision maker. A basic stock Ecto walked it easily and the PRO which is supposed to be a comp rig failed on Crowley. Nice comparison! I’d like to see other hard lines compared between the two in another vid!

I don't know, to me, all the turning in the world doesn't count for anything if you can't make a climb... plus the Ecto "looks" easier to drive. Visually, speed to the top doesn't seem to be something you're shooting for... Probably too close to call except the fail by the Pro. Nice one!

I’d probably call it equal, or a draw, the problem here is you need to try a few different terrains, obviously both very capable rigs, but both very different. But I do think that spend the same amount of money on the ecto as the pro costs and do a comparison. Appreciate the video, it’s helped me decide which direction I want to go with crawler number eight…

They tied

Well the pro should win. I actually think it should have killed the ecto on ever test. But me and you both know how great the ecto is. I wish my pro would hurry up and get here so I can get to building. I'll have My brass parts before the truck🤣🤣🤣

@ExocagedRC

Жыл бұрын

yeah for sure

Nothing beats the Honcho, once you see that, it's hard to go back to smaller scale imo. Hey I have a few 1/10s but the 1/6 is a beast. I think the most important factor is it has the weight to crawl almost to a scale if that makes sense, 11 kgs is seriously heavy.

Well obviously lol

i'm a big axial fan and i still think the ecto took the obstacles more in stride than the pro.

👍🤪

3:19 lol it had twice the front overdrive than the other and its a shorter car. of course it won. wouldnt even count that as a win though, actually wouldnt have even done that test at all consider the unfair advantage.

Ecto made gate keeper look easier

Hmmm.. i think ecto👀🥺🙈, sorry axial 😅

you should have taken the weights off of the Ecto. this is a bunk comparison.

Do you (or anyone) think the pro would benefit from a dig?
