2. 1/35 Orlandoo Micro Crawler

RC products being scale is a trend. One company,  Orlandoo Hunter Model has lead the way in creating the first micro crawling rig. Its got two models to choose from, the Rubicon and the F150.

Placing the front motor in front opens up space for the body interior to fit the floor panels in easily. Package together is the newest Hobbywing ESC - the WP1080 Crawler ESC. Since the launch of this ESC there has been nothing but praise for this product. That's why we've bundled them into one package.

4. Boom Racing XRMod PHAT Axle Houring W/ SST Universal Shafts & SST Steering Links

This is a great gift for those looking to upgrade their SCX10 to a better performance rig. If the person has an SCX10, its likely he has one problem with it. Its got a limited steering ability. This XRMOD upgrade increases steering angle dramatically to over 45 degrees, maximizes steering angle to increase steering radius.

The PHAT axle is one of the heaviest axles available on the market. It keeps the rig down when maneuvering and climbing. Add weight at the lowest point of the rig with no additional stress on the drivetrain. Also, adding weight to the front of your rig helps on climbing. Axle shafts are stainless steel universals, which is a tough and durable with high steering angle. The 4mm stainless steel steering links are top of the line in the market, adding scale realism and toughness to the front of your rig. All you need is stock Axial Wraith C-Hub and Knuckles, or any aftermarket ones.

Plus points

  • Well designed and great quality
  • Performance based, fits SCX10
  • Affordable way to upgrade performance quickly

They pack a ton of value, with great specs available and water splash proof right out of the box.
