SCX24 brass up front changes the balance. The rear gets light. Pair front brass with a rear brass servo mount or weight - otherwise the tail gets loose on climbs. #SCX24 #RCCrawling #RCUpgrades
What upgrade did you think would fix everything and turned out to be nothing? For me: tires before I realized gearing was the real problem. Classic. #RCCrawling #SCX24 #RCUpgrades
The mistake I kept making on rocky terrain: too much throttle. Crawling rewards placement, not power. Back up and re-approach before hammering it. Less spin, more patience. #SCX24 #RCCrawling #TrailCrawling
SCX24 or TRX4M - which are you running and what made the call? I've had both and still think it completely depends on what you want from crawling. #RCCrawling #SCX24 #TRX4M
SCX24 or TRX4M - not sure which is right for you? I compared both from real trail experience, not spec sheets. senditslow.com/guides/scx24-vs-trx4m #SCX24 #TRX4M #RCCrawling
Trying to figure out which SCX24 upgrades are worth it vs. hype? I ranked them by actual trail impact. senditslow.com/guides/best-scx24-upgrades #SCX24 #RCCrawling #MicroCrawler
SCX24 tipping on side hills? Check your battery position. Moving it lower or toward the inside of a turn drops your center of gravity and helps significantly on off-camber terrain. #SCX24 #RCCrawling #RCUpgrades
What's the first upgrade you made that actually felt different on the trail? For me it was brass knuckles on the SCX24. Night and day on loose dirt. What was yours? #RCCrawling #SCX24 #MicroCrawler
SCX24 rhythmic clicking under load? Check the rear dog bone engagement in the diff cup. They walk out under torque. Grease and reseat. Bench test hides it. #SCX24 #RCCrawling #RCUpgrades
Injora brass axle set for the SCX24: immediate, obvious improvement. Weight where it matters, no more plastic cracking anxiety. Under $30. #SCX24 #RCUpgrades #RCCrawling
SCX24 vs TRX4M: what it is actually like to own and run both. No sponsored opinion. senditslow.com/blog/scx24-vs-trx4m #SCX24 #TRX4M #RCCrawling
SCX24: before you blame the motor for sluggish throttle, check your gear mesh. Too tight binds and mimics a weak motor. Two-minute fix. #SCX24 #RCCrawling #RCUpgrades
SCX24 tip: stock plastic knuckles develop slop fast. Aluminum replacements tighten up steering noticeably. Worth doing earlier than you would think. #SCX24 #RCCrawling #RCUpgrades
Swapped my stock tire inserts for firmer aftermarket foam and the difference in side-hill stability surprised me. Stock foam is too soft for anything technical. Worth the $8. #RCCrawling #RCUpgrades #SCX24
Ranked the best SCX24 upgrades by actual impact, not hype. Some $10 parts outperform $40 ones. Here's the order that makes sense. senditslow.com/guides/best-scx24-upgrades #SCX24 #RCUpgrades #RCCrawling
Is adding brass to your SCX24 actually worth it? Depends on where you put it. Wrote up what works, what's overkill, and what order to add it. senditslow.com/guides/scx24-brass-upgrade #SCX24 #RCCrawling #RCUpgrades
Check your servo saver before blaming your servo. Half the time "bad steering" is just a worn servo saver spring, not a dead servo. Cheap part to replace. #RCCrawling #RCCars #SCX24
Upgrading the battery on your SCX24 or TRX4M? Compared the best LiPo options by size, fit, and actual performance. senditslow.com/blog/best-lipo-batteries-scx24-trx4m #SCX24 #TRX4M #RCCrawling
Two SCX24 mods that actually change how the truck drives. No skill required, no soldering, under $20 total. senditslow.com/guides/scx24-beginner-mods #SCX24 #RCBeginner #RCCrawling
Wheel weights are the most underrated micro crawler upgrade. A few grams on each wheel drops the center of gravity right where it counts. Cheap and no tools needed. #RCUpgrades #SCX24 #TRX4M
The SCX24 is the most popular micro crawler out there for a reason. Here's everything I know about the platform if you're just getting started: https://senditslow.com/guides/scx24-platform-guide #SCX24
My RC rock crawler, a green Ford Bronco, at a competition I went to today.
This is the underside of my rock crawler, showing off I popped a drive shaft out of its joint and did not finish.
Today was a good time.

Tried upgrading my #SCX24 steering servo today. Stripped the cheap metal threads in the Ecopower servo horn, broke off the top of a screw in the servo tray. The rig is running but I won't be getting that tray back out without destroying the suspension link.

Been antisocial the past few weeks, too busy building R/C crawlers and trying new lip stain. 💁🏼♀️ #scx24 #rc

Poison Ivy rash has kept me away from guitars lately so I worked on my #scx24 a bit. I 3D printed this chassis and transferred everything from my JLU over to it. Added some copper tape to the body panels for some added fun. #rc
I've been building this course for my scx24, using mostly stuff I had already. No real plan but an idea to build a course. So far, happy with what I got. I tried to make it somewhat portable but I'm thinking it's going to need its own stand.
Anyway, here's a video.

My revamped SCX24 Bronco. This is a nice kit from Meus RC that went together flawlessly. Completely changed not only the looks but the performance.

And stuck. The groomed path works great, the groomer just sucks at uneven surfaces.
