My New ________ (guess the RC)

[TurboChargedHonda]

Went to my LHS to just look... and returned with a truck.
What RC do you guys think I picked up?
(hint: rock crawler)

I'll reveal more clues as the responses come in!

 

[STONER RC]

Losi night crawler or
Readcat Gen8?

Losi night crawler or
Readcat Gen8?

Not quite, it does not come with any electronics.

 

[Kimmie28]

Traxxas trx-4 sport kit

 

[Kimmie28]

Or an element sendero kit

 

[STONER RC]

Axial SCX10 II ?

 

[WickedFog]

Ryft kit. I am just hoping because I want to ask you for some specific pics

And yeah, it's not really a crawler.

 

[Xraycer]

SCX10 iii Wrangler JLU kit

Traxxas trx-4 sport kit

Good guesses, but no.

Axial SCX10 II ?

Ding ding ding!!! You got it!

Ryft kit. I am just hoping because I want to ask you for some specific pics

I almost got the Ryft, but got the 10 ii instead, since there are a couple of slow crawling spots that I want to drive it at.

SCX10 iii Wrangler JLU kit

Very close... nearly there!

Here's a pic of the box (just opened it, working on an unboxing video that should be done soon):

Which body do you guys think I should go with (that looks fairly scale but isn't too heavy)? I'm thinking the Proline Toyota Hilux?

I agree with @Xraycer Subaru brat

 

[Chubaka]

Sr5 or proline 66 c10 assuming jeeps are too heavy.

 

[Dewalt Drill]

no body is the best fit i could find for you with what you asked for its not too heavy up top and since RC chassis are fairly realistic looking i think it fits the job pretty well https://cdn3.volusion.com/kazmu.psjlo/v/vspfiles/photos/AXI90104-2.jpg?v-cache=1623145356

Looking forward to seeing this progress into something cool. The Toyota body is the most popular for a reason.

 

[STONER RC]

Sweet!! Can't wait to see how you bring it to life. Going to be a fun build. Nice score

That's hard plastic. It's going to be significantly heavier than lexan.

 

[STONER RC]

Go old school man better line back then 40s-70s Chevy step side or a dodge power wagon, Ford bronco

Oh, I had forgotten that part of the requirements while looking. A Jeep Comanche 2wd was my first truck. I am probably the first guy to ever slam a Jeep, and I loved it lol. But I have been wanting to build an SCX10 with that body for awhile now. That and it isn't a very common RC body. I like being a little different.
