- The Axial SCX24 micro crawlers have been a very popular model and have definitely sold well for them. They are one of the best RTR micro crawlers that are fully ready to run out of the box, but that doesn't mean they can't be made better. A lot of upgrades have flooded the market and really can take these tiny trucks to the next level. Lets take a look at a few upgrades I've chosen to start with.

Just got my scx24 and I gotta say these things are addictive and durable. Great vid 👍🏻
Thank you for the reminder on that bearing most likely I would of missed it..hi from Canada
Hey I discovered your podcast through searching 'rc' in Spotify. As a 35 y.o. getting into the hobby for the first time I really appreciate it, the candidness and flow of your podcast is great, you have the radio skills. Keep putting out new content, I will watch/listen to it. I ordered the C10 because of you. Axial please pay this man!
A set of tweezers, works a lot better Tony, tip of the day !!, got out yesterday first time , with my 1/24 C10, these little trucks are awesome, but I need a bigger eyeballs, I got to get a set of hex tools for mine. Man those screws are tiny. Appreciate you sharing,
I really like my scx24. It’s been transformed into an old skool ford monster truck with huge Firestones. Blew the motor this week and need to upgrade Servo but adding rear steering soon!
That sounds amazing!
CCxRC check this out! Work in progress... czcams.com/video/Bjj8wcpUVw4/video.html
Nice upgrades and bench work 💯 yeah man these little rigs rock!! Just made a Jeep Gladiator body for one of mine 😁
Gladiator looks really good too SoFlo
🙏🏻 Thank you bobaque 🤜🏻🤛🏼
That sounds awesome. Haven't seen that yet.
CCxRC thanks dude 🙏🏻
Love the upgrades Tony. I got to try those shocks👍👍
Great tutorial many thanks for this
I will watch this again when I upgrade mine thanks for sharing 👍
Thanks for sharing Tony!!
I have the c10, 3 orings on the shock bodies to increase spring rate, keeps the body off the tires
To anyone buying those Hot Racing shocks you should definitely swap the softer springs on them right away. i bought them for my Deadbolt and the silver ones (firmer) were way too hard for such a small rig. Swapped to the softer ones and it was just right.
John C. Reilly?
I have two of those! I am going to do some tutorials in how to add FPV to them.
Awesome video, I just got back into rc and ordered the white scx24 jeep, I'm just waiting for delivery. I wish we had the number of hobby shops here in canada like in the states.
Nice upgrades Tony
I need that driver and the other upgrade.
I'm glad to see you use those shocks, I wasn't going to get them but now I'll be grabbing those tomorrow from the local hobby shop
wish i had a local hobby shop
Nice upgrades
I am thinking you should have done that drop test without the added weights, might have seen a better difference in the shock upgrade. Great videos man, keep 'em up! Is the SCX24 your favourite indoor micro crawler for the $$?
Great suggestion. The drop test was an afterthought. I just wanted to see how it did. Realistically, they shouldn't fall that far and the test is irrelevant. The lift/tap test is better, but still hard to say because of the added weight. Overall it handles better. Do need to upgrade my servo to handle that added weight. Also want the smaller C10 tires for this one. Don't like these tires as much.
Do all scx24 have same wheel weight sizes? Interchangeable? Im asking coz I have a b17 betty and the part codes for wheel weights are different then other models. Thanks.
Not sure if there are different options but the HR shocks on my 24 don’t have as much travel as stock.
The Reefs 99 micro servo is a must for this little guys
That's what I'm trying to get. Sold out locally and on Reef's site.
do the oil filled shocks leak?
Is it necessary to upgrade motor and servo if adding all the weight? So far i just have brass wheel weights, diff covers are waiting for servo upgrade first , do you think thats a good idea?
Definitely need a better servo if adding a lot of brass and wheel weights. You'll really notice the difference
Super mega like 👍👍👍👍
Big thanks! Or Super mega Big thanks!!!
Shock travel is the same for both stock and HR
The little T Ranch works the smallest
Man I can see why you needed glasses lol. Thank you were just having as much fun dropping them as anything else. Pretty cool upgrades though
😂😂😂🤓😎 I see you and you 1/24 scale hatred perfectly clear Sean. 😂😂
CCxRC LMAO
Would you recommend the stiff or soft springs when using 3000 shock oil? Thanks in advance.
Where did you get the clear body for the jeep? I didn’t see it link down below please let me know thanks Great video
Sorry about that. I added it to the description now. Here is the Clear Jeep Body for SCX24: bit.ly/2SY31Tm
A wpl would of definitely broken in 50 pieces on even one of those drop tests. Lol.
I just bought an scx24 recently, is it normal that you cant tighten the wheel nuts? if I tighten mine down at all the truck won't move it binds up which in turn will burn the motor up. I literally have to have them so loose that eventually the nuts just completely unscrew after a few minutes of driving. I've tried stock hexes brass hexes etc etc no matter what if I tighten down enough to actually hold the wheel on it starts to bind the drivetrain?? Any help wld be appreciated.
That doesn't sound normal. I haven't had that issue with any of mine. I don't tighten them crazy hard, but do snug them up. Never have lost a wheel not or had binding.
I need a new "chrome" bumper and light harness tires rubbed right threw wire have to remember to move light wires out of the way
I tried to move the wires, but it seemed like it put the connection under too much stress if the wires were moved enough for 100% clearance. Quick fix was just to limit the steering. A LOT. Does the wiring connection handle the stress of permanently moving the wires out of the way, for those that have done this?
I got a question what size tool do I need to take off the wheels on the scx24 c10
I cant remember if your using the stock servo need to finish the vid good job
still stock servo. The reefs micro servo I want has been out of stock
Thanks for the video, just bought a bunch of parts following your recommendation! I was wondering why do you need such a heavy wt shock oil for these shocks? Most people say to run 20-50wt, 3000cst is like 240wt isn’t it?
yes it's extremely heavy wt but the reason for it is because these shocks like most all scx24 shocks leak. so the thicker the oil the less likely for leaks. in reality your not really even filling them with shock oil it's more like your simply lubricating them more than anything... 👍🏼
So what are you thinking for motor upgrade? On scx24
There is a 100 turn motor upgrade that some people are doing. Here is a link to a video where the guy does the upgrade and shows the part number of a place he gets it for 8 bucks as opposed to 15 or something. czcams.com/video/pDOLIWPdRos/video.html
8:50 are you hungry?
Nope. The clicks was me switch the camera from auto focus to manual.
Horrible camera placement, I actually don't see anything you're doing.
But the video is educational.
Wait, can you drop them for another few minutes, and slo motion it.
Is this directed towards me😉
Haha. I don't think so. Not knowingly at least. I've had these upgrades for months and just now had the time do them. Partly spurred on by a trip later that day to our new track that has a Micro course.
Hey don't drop those tiny trucks like that you breaking em!
Too late! Plus this is nothing compared to what happens to them when my boys drive and they fall 3 feet from the Micro Crawler table at the local track 😬
@@CCxRC He he I am just playing around with ya 😁👍👍 they are strong as hell these little suckers!
totally. I'm going to be doing your shock dampening trick for the other ones.
@@CCxRC Cool got to use a sticky type of
grease. 👍👍
Anyone know when any of these might be back in stock anywhere?
Justin Freeman hobbytown?!
Looks like they will be back in stock late Feb/ Early March 2021. I hope so...I regret not getting one the first time around.
ordered mine yesterday, theyre in back order but mines coming on the 16th of this month
@@aubreybutler5217 I got mine 2 weeks ago from Horizon Hobby. They have 2 of the 3 trucks in stock. I ordered from HH through Amazon...got them both in 2 days.
Deffinetly makes no difference...
