What are the main differences between the SCX10 and the Wraith?

A Fukin **** ton!! The axles on a scx 10 blow balls. The wrath is identical to a d60 pretty much. Sucks ass takin apart a scx10 axle. Bad. Oh and they are super narrow. The wraith much wider.

Scx10 ain't to bad of an axle put some beef tubes an cut down some ujoint axles an roll with it. Hell I used parts from the ax10 an scx10 axles

kushKrawlin · Apr 25, 2016

Meh. Not for me. They suck. Balls. Lot easier to take a wraith axle apart. And after all that you mentioned the price is higher than a stock set of axles. And then there's the narrow part. That sucks too. I realize there's the "Xr mod" to widen. But what's the point?? Wraith blows scx10's doors off. So much easier. And way more scale if your into the dolls and **** driving. Haha.

kushKrawlin · Apr 25, 2016

Full width !! wraith FTW

1tonrenegade · Apr 25, 2016

They work good for 1.9 but for the 2.2 wider is better. I'm ruff on stuff stock axle won't hold up

kushKrawlin · Apr 25, 2016

Man I got quite a few scx10 axle parts. Would gladly give them to
You. Just a bunch of misc ****. Couple axle housings, bta steering etc etc.

1tonrenegade · Apr 25, 2016

Heck yeah I'll take the housings. The rest of the stock parts won't work. Good looking axle there

e4cutler · Apr 25, 2016

Y'all making me lean towards the Wraith. The specs between them on Axial's site doesn't show much difference.

kushKrawlin · Apr 25, 2016

Man. Seriously, it's a no brainer. well lemme ask you this. Would you rather have a 1 Ton buggy, or a Toyota cab truck? Cause that's bout the same difference. Lemme put this into real world talk for you ... Scx10 has narrow ass yota axles and 37" tires.. Wraith has 1 tons and 44's. No ****. My scx10 sucked till I put them 1 tons under it. Everything I own has dem 1 tons.
Just look at how to get the scx10 axle apart.. Easy choice bud.

1tonrenegade · Apr 25, 2016

The one on left is 2.2 an right is 1.9 super swamped xl tires I built both with a variety of parts hell not sure what all the left one is but it works tho

kushKrawlin · Apr 25, 2016

And before anyone says anything, I'm a yota fan, just trying to help buddy not piss money away with my analogy ... there's nothing wrong with the Toyota on 37s, everyone knows they are badass.. but not on a full-size frame. Because the frame on the Scx10 would be like swappin a full size suburban frame under a Toyota Tacoma. Haha.

1tonrenegade · Apr 25, 2016

Never thought bout it like that! :****: hell just buy skid plate for a wraith an some 3/16 cold roll an build it like ya want

Haha I understand now

... I'll take some pictures of my Traxxas tonight and try to get it sold so I can pickup one of these. What is the difference between the multiple Wraith's other than the body?

Where is a decent place online to buy parts,batteries and etc for these damn things. I talked myself into buying a Wraith from a friend of mine that is like new but the crappy NiMh charger and batteries are **** at best and won't run more than 5 minutes so looking to toss more money now.

TBItoy · May 15, 2016

Re:

Go ahead and go lipo.

You can fit a lipo battery that will run for hours in the same spot as the NIMH stick.

Ebay is the go to place I used. There are so many hobby shops on there the prices are very cometetive and its easy to find a good shop by their feedback. There is one I used quite often but can't think of the name now. It's hard to go wrong there and parts are endless.
