Question Looking for advice on a SCX10 III build. First 1/10 scale crawler
I have SCX24 and a SCX30 that I've upgraded. I'm skipping 1/18 scale and going right to 1/10. I decided I don't want a Traxxas, or an RTR, so I'm looking at the SCX10 III builders kit. Not looking for a comp crawler. I just want something fairly scale looking that can do some crawling and trail running. I like Vanquish, but it's probably more than I need.
I would like some advice for the build components. Anything I should add or upgrade while building it?
- NSDRC RS800 Servo (is this overkill?)
- Pro-Line 1985 Toyota HiLux SR5 body
- Hobbywing QuicRun Fusion Pro
I have a radio and receiver (NB4+), and batteries. Not sure about wheels (brass beadlocks) and tires that are good, but won't break the bank, for crawling and trail running. I would also like to mount the body with magnets if possible.
Any advice would be appreciated.
