    Harden your bark, there are storms on the horizon.
    those things are pretty durable. my buddy had one going full tilt then did about 40 barrel rolls flipping for about 70ft across his yard....no damage. i was impressed.

    I plan on getting the Ax10 kit when I get back home from this military school. Any pointers as this will be my first build, and really like the crawlers like this Scorpion kit.

    i was into RC crawling for a few years... i recently just sold off all of my crawlers...

    http://www.rccrawler.com/forum

    is a great resource for building one...

    you can always find guys upgrading and selling their basic kits...

    be warned though, it gets expensive...

    i had a 2.2 competition legal crawler that in the end, had almost $900 into it, and that was just in shortcut parts, not even the good stuff...
