- We’ve been featuring a lot of scale trail trucks as of recent. Not that we’re changing the direction of the channel, it’s just what is available for us to review and the trail truck segment is pretty hot right now. With that said, saddle up for another trail truck review. This time we have the Carisma SCA-1E Coyote Ready To Run Scale Adventure RC Truck. This 1/10 electric 4wd off-road truck has a lot of exciting features and a very cool 50’s truck inspired body. This machine has a smaller foot-print with a 280mm wheelbase and 1.55 beadlock tires, but it looks like it will deliver big on the fun. So the question is, will it? Does it have the features you’re looking for in a scale crawler? Greg breaks down the details and performance on the Carisma Coyote so you can see if this truck is right for your next scaler, RTR basher or project machine.

Being the new guy on the block with RC all around, I chose this Carisma myself. Because of it's simple design I'm not intimated when I want to fix or upgrade. Small heads up,after time I've noticed the compound in the stock tires get broken in somewhat and becomes more sticky!!! Nice review I've done a couple mods to mine I named it Phil😎 Thx for finally getting it up on the bench.
Bought it..and came out fine and smooth..changed the brounze bushings and ran smooth..
First thing I did was pull the foam out of the tires, That eliminated a lot of the bounce and made crawling a lot more effective, I did end up upgrading the tires and wheels to 1.9’s, They handle much better on a heavier rig so I put them on my TF2.
This was my first RC crawler and I’ve been beating the bag off of it for 6 months now with no problems, I did hafto shave a piece of the steering servo bracket to make room for suspension travel but other than that it’s a well made truck and I’ll take it over an Axial any day, Thanks for the review RC Driver.
It was well needed!
I picked one of these up from a friend of mine who bought it for his girlfriend. She used it for like maybe a week, and wanted something easier to drive. So he took out the 35 turn motor, and swapped in a 55 turn. Then turned around and sold me the whole rig for $150 bucks. I had a really nice FlySky radio and receiver already, so I threw that in it. And it holds its own with his Komodo, and our other crawling buddies SCX 10. I actually am very impressed with this rig, and with a few more little odds and ends such as all metal steering knuckles, links, and servo arm, and some new grippier tires, and better shocks this things actually pretty solid too. For me its the best $150 RC purchase ive ever made!!! And goes anywhere rigs three times its price goes.... Also with a little creativity, and modding you can make it look awesome!!
Yeah...great value
If anyone can pick one up for $150. Spend the $300+ tax, then do all the improvements you mentioned.. Not such a good value anymore
True.... I guess I got lucky....lol
The body is really cool looking. Reminds me of the old International Harvester trucks.
body reminds me of an International pickup. excellent vid, I am looking forward to your next update on this truck.
Your reviews are very constructive and factual. Very interesting for us because we can make our own opinion depending on what we are looking for, & also interesting for the manufacturer so they can improve their products. Keep going, you're perfect.
Nice review, thanks. I've been spoiled by my trx4 Bronco, diffs, hi low etc etc.
Great unboxing and review of this truck. I’ve had my eye on this one but was skeptical about getting it. After your review I think I’ll by pass this one . Thanks for the great review. 👍
Noeys FastRC you won’t be disappointed.
Noeys FastRC I love that body though
The body is inspired by a 60’s Toyota Stout super cool truck. I wish they got it fully licensed for some better realistic touches
Very nice looking vehicle... great video as always!
the tires and wheels suck had to replace the esc after a week but I am hard on the truck .
needs help but after some work it climbs awesome. the wheels are a different size on each side weird.
It’s actually an early 60’s Toyota Stout
how do you make it less sesnitive
What do I need to replace to smooth out the throttle? I assume the ESC?
I bought both the coyote and range rover kits both come with bearings and battery and servo trays up front I have upgraded both of mine they are my go to crawlers with everything I have done to them they are very capable crawlers ,the ready to run ones do need some work and part upgrades to get them to work right but they are fantastic if you spend some money on upgrades and tuning
Awesome video and cool channel my friend
Fantastic video yet again my friend, great review, thanks for sharing 👌😁👌
Gotta love the GREAT WEST COAST.
Hello from Powell River BC.
Great review Brutha.
Im currently trying to decide if I should get this or a scx10 ii
i think you should go for the coyote carisma
Hello between this and the FTX fury? Thanks
Should i buy next month a Traxxas Rustler nitro, or should i wait another month and buy a Traxxas T-maxx nitro?
Sweet super awesome video keep up the good work
Hey on a different topic, while I am trying to watch my favorite tuber, unbox and a commercial for a rc airplane twin duct fan mtrs. Retracts, lights, what they call a full house aircraft. For 19.99 msrp. What a load of b.s. there stealing giving people a bad representation of what our hobby os All About. Maybe you could say a quick word about these carpet baggers and there scam. Good vids brother, you do this hobby a world of good, and we thank you Sir 🙂
Has the usual crawler issue of been too light, they bounce around too much on the ruts and rocks..
cool looking truck
Anyone know if body can be bought separate
Nice scale model. Definately trying a carisma model next. Kit set though, I can't abide RTR models. Need that scale look and unique paint job.
Good honest review. Greg can't be bought.
can you review the axial bomber plz
Thats awesome rc ......❤️👍👍👍👍👍..greeting from me..utam kola from Indonesia🙏🙏🙏
I like it! How is part availability for this though? Good video!
Great video! What's the music?
Great video coverage on this Carisma SCALER, and Thank you for an Honest Opinion, I do like alot of the features that the Coyote offers for the price..but ???
will the body and chassis accept 2.2 tires and wheels 12mm hex?
540 motor mount upgrade to 550 can size?
Transmission and Diff gears metal?
Is Throttle Dual rate also?
Thanks again..
Having Fun RCing Laughing and Playing ✌😎👍
Wheels are 12mm hex and should accept 2.2
It has an 11inch wheelbase way small for a 10th scale
Я поставил на свою Carisma шины 121мм, но чуть подрезал колесные арки, в раздатке металлические шестерни, подшипники и латунные втулки, в мостах тоже втулки вместо подшипников. Я менял все на подшипники. Развесовка плохая из-за того, что аккумулятор сзади, я переставил его вперед, совсем другое дело.
I wanted one until I found out how small it is, an 11inch wheelbase is not much bigger than my barrage 12th scale.
it is a great 1/10 scale crawler nice truck
Definitely need a foam or at least a rubber grip on the transmitter,it’s $300 so they shouldn’t of cheaped out on the transmitter
Put brake fluid in the shocks.
Made my trx4 perrrrfect
Yeah I'd spend the extra 60 bucks & get the trx4 sport or an Axial deadbolt.Nice job on the review though. 👍 As soon as I saw the running footage I knew it needed some work. Suspension was just to stiff & bouncy. I do like the body I'm into the older style pick ups.
Mike Burgess RC Traxxas prices in the UK are terrible the Trx4 sport is £140 more than the Carisma
Mike Burgess RC I agree the body is the best part. The body looks like a jeep j10 or j20 pickup.
fgbaja29cc Yeah the trx4 sport is 359.00 on Traxxas website & the Coyote is 300.00. That's crazy there's such a price difference. Has to be something with the cost of importing them.
Mike Burgess RC Yeah it's a shame because Traxxas have some very nice models especially the newer stuff
fgbaja29cc I think with all the competition in the industry now maybe we might start to see the prices start to come down. I know Vaterra & ECX have lowered prices. Also Losi has the Tenacity line & they are reasonably priced for the performance level also. I'm hoping with the price of electronics getting better too maybe we will see some better RTR power systems. Traxxas electronics are not the greatest. I think there older servos & esc were built better. I'm still running original 2075 servos from 8 years ago. Lol
'50's inspired body'.....yeah it is but more specifically it a Toyota Stout (without licensing) a bit of an oldball forgotten model, my father used to own one.
In the uk it cost me £229
I love it
Where did you get it for that money ?
£219 I paid, modelsport
i paid 219 euro
Im Not Sure df4j or the carisma
Hey can I lift this truck wanna make it a missing big and put skinny tractor tires on it I wAnt to lift it but I don’t know if I can
is it waterproof
resistant
It is. I drove mine into water higher then the car and it's been fine
Ty4sharing!¡ !!!
Not worth it
slash 2wd oval boss what makes you say that?
Do you have one?
It’s only $259 now.
EverHurt not the kind of quality ever for $259 would have liked ball bearings and a better transmitter.
