Title: Rock Crawler/scale trucks under 20K
Post by: neo on October 02, 2011, 08:06:05 PM
Hello friends,

I looking for a rock crawler/ scale trucks under 20K. Any RC shops/outlets/online stores that deal with rock crawlers/scale trucks? Any LOSI/AXIAL dealers in India? I don't want the hassle of getting them from stores abroad due to customs issues.
It would be great to know if there are any stores in Bangalore selling these...I am even OK to get them shipped from anywhere in India.
Looking forward for your help.

Hi iamhuman,

Thanks for the link, but I would like to try my luck in getting a new one than a used one first.Please do let me know if you do get some info on any stores/outlets where they are available. Currently I am considering the following options

LOSI Mini Crawler 1/18
LOSI Micro Crawler 1/24
LOSI Micro Trail Trekker 1/24

Axial TR™ (AX90012) - but sadly :( this way to expensive and out of my budget
AX90011 - AX10 SCORPION RTC

I am actually begining to like the 1/24 scale models from LOSI a lot now, especially the LOSI Micro Trail Trekker, since I am a novice to crawling. I can at a later stage go in for more advanced and expensive crawler . So my first choice would be the LOSI Micro trailtrekker or the Micro crawler.

Let me know if you have any suggestions.

Thanks again.

Hi Friends,

Looks like there are hardly any RC outlets/online stores in india that sell crawlers/scale trucks. I have no idea how to procure them :( Any words of advise from the experienced members would be greatly appreciated. I guess the only option I have now is to order it through some online store in the US. But the thing that worries me is the customs part.

Any retailers willing to procure this for me?
BTW, I have pretty mush made up my mind to go in for the LOSI 1/24 Micro trail trekker or LOSI 1/18 MINI Rock crawler.

Check out Tamiya India. They have a large number of crawlers and scale trucks. Google adventure wheels or check facebook.

Nice rig you got there. What tyres are you running? i got me a Redcat rs10xt and have been modifying it. [http://www.rcindia.org/cars/evolution-of-my-rs10-xt-crawler/]
I am planning a tyre upgrade and was thinking of picking one from the HPI range.

cheers

just a note about rc4wd . they do not ship to india unless payment is bank transferred. they have a paypal option too but they didnt take payment from india.   :(
if u want tires from rc4wd always go for mtbaja claws or iroks only. :thumbsup:
axial and losi tires always have good grip and life too.

Dont Know whats the problem these days with them Rc4wd they seems to have really gone down. Its like they dont care anymore. I got some thing from them 2years back they were preety good then.  But Now a days www.ckrccrawlers.com are doing a great job.
