- The Axial RBX Ryft is the a purpose built rock bouncer. Designed to hold big power to launch itself up large hills. This is the first new 2.2 size vehicle for the rocks from Axial since late 2015, and it looks like it will raise the bar for Axial in this area.

Josh measures ground clearance: three and a half hands.
It looks like axial had a bit of time picking thru losi's parts bins. Larger axle shafts along with that bearing holders, fake brakes, open diffs all around and those shocks look alot like the Baja rey shocks.
Is your hobby mat even big enough for this rig to measure lol
Lol, must be because counting fingers is too complicated lol. Thanks for the great videos you guys put out. Always allot of fun.
As a veteran RCer long out of the game, I've been impressed with Axial's products and reputation. Yesterday I lucked into a great price on the grey builder kit and couldn't pass it up. I'm hoping this will make a good rock crawler as I have access to a giant pile of granite boulders and some big dirt hills near my home.
As someone with a Rock Rey , your concern about the brake discs are 100% valid. Remove them if you plan to run in gravel.
This replaced the lasernut on my list of 2021 rigs to buy
DITTO!!
Same
Same !
You had that right there the whole time and pretended to be surprised. Well done Josh
Can't wait till they're available!!
Pre order
6 channels could easily get filled up
1 - Steering
2 - Throttle
3 - Shifter
4 - Winch
5 - Lighting
6 - Rear steer or Dig?
Get rid of the winch cause its a bouncer. Have the lights power on when you turn it on. There ha go
First I’m going to do is install 400mm shocks and jumbo kongs. Then flex it on my washing machine.
I Like that you are Very Thorough in your breakdown of each component on each vehicle you show!
Very interesting , informative and helpful!
Thank you very much!
OMG, I am so excited for this vehicle! I love my Bomber, but this looks awesome! I am in love with the tires and want a set for my Bomber, currently on 2.2 MudSlinger XL's. Thank you for all the info and details that you have provided to us. I am looking forward to the detailed component as well as running videos!
That is bad ass.
I did not think you would have the new truck after last night's live show with Matt.
That thing is awesome..
I love the bomber.
But I like this maybe a little more...
Axles are awesome.
I like the hood/battery spot.
Very awesome detail.
Great overview! Looking forward to seeing how this thing performs 🤙
I like it Josh, looks bad ass. Can't wait to see some running video.
The manual for the kit version shows the stages required to install the lockers in place of open diff and the parts required for the two speed tranny. I presume that means the parts are included. The kit was listed yesterday on the Horizon site at $369.99 but they pulled the link later and replaced with the RTR details. The wheelbase specs are all over the place at 317.5mm (RTR), 387mm (kit specs) and now your measured 393mm.
I kind of guessed it yesterday. It definitely looks awesome with that cage design. Can't wait to see what's it got on the rocks!
I agree you should have got the orange one ,looks like axial nailed this one
Great review def looking forwards to driv video soon
Awesome video sir. I will be buying one of these soon. Thanks for all the info.
Pretty awesome looking machine! 😮Great review also. 👍
Perfectly explain thanks for uploading 🥰
I literally bought a bomber to turn into a rock bouncer. I’ll have to get one and compare the 2 when I am done with my build.
Thank you for so much info !! Love it. I think you should do a follow up comparison with the Bomber. Its a machine most of us have seen and driven plus there seem to be a lot of dimensional similarities. Thanks !
14 bolts are called 14 bolts because they have 14 bolts on the ring gear, not the cover.
I would say your wrong on that
@@dennisanstadt1039 but he's not wrong. The ring gear on the 1:1 does in fact use 14 bolts as well as the cover.
It's called the rock dragger in my book. Shaved.
Love it. Need it. Missing a high powered rig in my collection.
Nice video as always!
Wicked, finally a new RC that I don't need to buy.
Dude I'm waiting on Australia to receive these I have a per order. MASSIVE THANKS for your video
Hahahaha your end of the week need for your FB 7” flex 💪 🤣🤣🤣 too bloody funny! Great video 👍
Awesome details, awesome truck 😃😃
Josh. I initially wasn't very impressed by this new offering from Axial; but, you have now increased my interest. Will watch for your follow-up videos on this rig. Please assess any torque twist that this vehicle may have after you test drive.
Can't wait for the kit version been waiting for something new in the 2.2
I sure wish it came in a kit! I have a bomber and love it, but I like kits. Awesome looking rig!
What a let down you have to buy the lockers as optional parts.
I feel a bouncer should be fully locked...
Love it! Been waiting for a bouncer & ordered one (orange 😜) today. Hopefully they'll offer a rear steer axle assly. Like the tires, but not that they're glued on. I could really use a 6 channel receiver & with some luck that means they'll bring out a 6 channel Smart Tx.
I need to see run videos!!! Like ASAP, btw great job on the coverage, thanks to your video I don’t need to guess
There is a short demo of the diffs on our channel!
The Ar14 B name was a nice touch but most of trucks I’ve seen with 14bolt front axles have the pumpkin on the other side, or it’s center but still nice touch, can’t wait to get my hands on one of these
Thanks again for the info.
Okay, I'm sold. Waiting for a kit, though.
I haven't been this excited for an Axial release in a long time. Wow this is going to be great in Utah terrain.
I’m really excited for these axles. I have a love/hate relationship with ar60s
Sick ride
Sub’d. Very informative and clear content👍🏻
Cool Video 👍👍
I actually really like the turnbuckle style links and wish the other crawler companies would adopt similar, but perhaps with an external hex section for adjustment instead of the through-hole.
Great video!!
Looks pretty sweet, I can't wait to check it out! I wonder how long until we see the RBX24.
It’s pretty cool axial is kinda going after a bash market. The open diffs will save these axles and driveshafts a lot.
Good review. I agree, l think l would lock the differentials, maybe add some light buckets with led lights up front.
I'll wait for the kit version
For sure!, I just can’t buy a RTR🤷♂️
WOW that is pretty cool!!!
Time for some Flecks Friday post. Looks pretty sweet other than the long shocks and open diffs.
FYI... On full size axles when you say it a 14 bolt, it is referring to the # of bolt in the ring gear. The cover usually has the same # but not always.
if those are sealed diffs, you should look to the 8th scale racers in your area for info on how to utilize diff fluids to maximize performance.
Yes that’s why I mentioned they are sealed and tuneable. I mentioned they felt light to say that they could use heavier oil to slow the action.
I hate to be the negative guy but you could probably put a set of those cut tires on a bomber and be better off as far as performance goes...but that cage is very cool!
Very nice rig 💪🏾💯
We got to hit some hills with ours and it's killer! I think the end all for performance on this bad boy is a little shorter shocks and this thing KILLS hills right out of the box.
Everything climbs better with locked diffs....real bouncers have locked diff for a reason.
Just wonder why Axial would go "open" on everything?
Possibly to detour breakage?
It's for better control
Hell ya!!! I’m definitely getting one, I always wanted a rock bouncer “well one of the metal cage custom ones” but this will work, awesome!!!! I guess I will stop building my wraith & sell it to fund this lol, maybe I like my wraith.
Never sell only add more unless you are doing a show like Josh and Matt
Cut Boggers and 14bolts! nice. Open diffs though... lockers should come in the box with it.
Wait no bull horns come with it? I’m out.
Yup. Pick up my lmt tomorrow. Then I must get this to.
it is going to look great beside my Bomber, but i might wait for the kit.
Can also drill and tap they diff cover to load the bearings... doubt it will do anything but you could for sorca points I guess
Hey Josh, quick one - how much grease would you put inside the front and rear differential housings? just a bit or pack it? Thanks!
Very cool- makes me want to build a rock bouncer
They sent you the black one to see if you'd notice, lol, looks like a good platform for future builds
Fuel cell looks proper to me and other bouncing enthusiasts
Well. I have to say I really like the new axles but agree that the rear should have been centered. I'm sure we will see an aftermarket centered option in the near future. Can't wait to get my hands on one get it lowered down a bit and give'er a rip.
Yeah they are super cool
Rad can't wait to see it on the trail.
Doesn't Axial know they are to send you the Orange one?
Naw it's funnier that he didn't get the orange.... 😂 Diss the thicc buoy
I have a preference for scale trucks. I have a Wraith that I don't drive much, but I am tempted by this one.
5/16" of an in wrench will work for 8mm size nuts, they're the same size. So plenty of standard nut drivers in that 5/16". jik someone needs this info...thanks for the great video, they're truly appreciated
Wow this is the rig I've been chasing for since I started wanting a Lasernut. Was looking at a Bomber and a Capra and Pulled the trigger on a Capra 2 weeks ago. In for a penny in for a pound, but I might have to put off my Electronics and Grab A RYFT.
Decided to Wait on the RYFT, at least until I finish my planned build out of the Capra. XR10 Combo and Reefs 444 on the way. Haven't purchased parts for rear steer, considering the Reefs 299 in back for Clearance Issues, waiting to trim tail of cage until I can do a test fit with Servo mounted. Reefs 99 for Dig is on back order everywhere, thanks winch heads.
I'll add it to my collection, but I don't have to like it 🤣. Great reveiw Josh
That was long, I'm scratching my head on some of the design concepts but am interested what time tells us. I personally don't like how rock bouncers look but it would be fun to drive.
in the video you dropped the center part of the chassis where the tranny and motor is from the cage. what else is the cage bolted to or whats left to unbolt for the cage to be fully off the chassis ? if you wanted to paint the cage? I would like to paint the cage blue. thanks Rick
When it comes out I’m getting one.
Very nice 👍👍
Any word on when The Kit will Drop ?
Can you get spools for those axles to lock them? Because just looking at this build, I happen to believe that it would make for a stellar crawler.
Hi Harley I wanna build a ryft to mimmic a bomber, so lock all 3 diffs and change the pinion to something smaller.. i was thinking castle mamba x esc and the 2400kv motor, do you feel this is too much motor and i should go with a lower kv? i was also thinking of using the optional underdrive gears in both diffs to lower wheel speed.. Any input you can send my way would be awesome, i love watching your vids and your builds are always awesome. hopefully you have time to answer my question, Thanks
At least I don't already have all the components and trying to build my own bouncer..... SMH... I needed this update a few months ago! Ha. Nonetheless, great vid and thanks man!
good video thanks
I want this, I want this now.. There is a new subdivision road being built in the field behind me. They are currently digging the trenches for the sewers.. There are litteral huge mounds of dirt not 300 feet away from me at this very second that are just begging to be bounced up..
I wonder if you can use the provided mounts on the axles for the lower shocks mounts ??
You should totally do a video showing how you "phase" the u-joints in the driveline if you haven't done a video like that already...
I have never done that on my slow trucks, but as I think about my next build, and my daughter's Bomber, the faster ones definitely need it, and it wouldn't hurt to do to all our trucks really...
Besides a couple misses, like a few weak points where a vehicle meant for this kind of driving could've been beefed up a tad more.... such as rod ends , axle housings, trailing arms(just things I have seen mentions of people breaking)... and the brushless system being sensorless... what are your thoughts on this...?
Initially I wasn't at all a fan, have 5 Axial trucks in our house, including a Bomber... and I think beyond the slight bit of speed that some trail/crawling involves, like a Bomber, Gatekeeper, or just normal scale trucks, the next step is full on basher level or the "rock racing" ... do you think this rig would make a good rock racer? I guess I just don't quite get this rig and its use...or why make this given the other rigs that already exist...
Anyhow, not one for me, but I'm sure it will be a good fit for some who want to mix crawling/trailing with bashing...
Cheers
7” of Farcebeek Flex!!
That alone should guarantee a sales winner! But a 6chTX! Winnah!
Nice video. I have this, but do i need to bind it to use it properly? And is it hard to do it? I started last year with rc hobby, but have had some difficult time so i have not used my cars lately. But feel ready to begin now. I wonder if it is hard to bind becouse of where the reciever is located? I did it with my Infraction and that was not hard. Sry my english and life story. haha:)
Cool! They totally should have sent you the orange one. Axial should know you better by now. Maybe it is not in production yet.
We have the orange one!
Its a beefy looking rig, im liking it for sure.
Can you throw the rb wheels and tires onto the bomber? I want those tires for my bomber but curious if they will clear at steering lock and full suspension flex
I want one so badly!
When it comes out I’m getting one
Hell yeah six channel? Rear steer two speed with a lights set up. Shits yeah
I am intrigued
Want and going to pick up the kit. Just got a Mamba x 8s too. 😎
Looks like there ready for rear steering with the 6 channel receiver as well as telemetry and its begging you to get the current 5 channel radio or maybe a future 6 channel radio
NICE!!
2021 looking good now
2.2s and no portals! I'm in!
