ECX has a new monster truck out based on the Axe. It's a 10th scale RC ready to run vehicle that features a licensed Axe MT body, wheels and tires for that cool firetruck look. It comes with the Spektrum STX2 2 channel 2.4Ghz radio system, a Dynamite 12T brushed motor and a 60A brushed ESC with reverse. You need to pick up a 7 cell NiMH or a 2 cell Lipo battery. The Axe is listed at $159.99, but it's only available at your local hobby shop.

I agree^^ I just wish they would sell them with a metal transmission (like Traxxas does with their 2wd brushed lineup) so a brushless system was a drop in mod, without having to buy the truck, the metal gears, and then the brushless system.

I know it would raise the price, but seeing as how some competitors have a metal gear system I wonder if they have looked into doing the same somehow.
I even wonder how the trucks do with a lipo installed on the stock set up, and if the extra power from the lipo strips gears. |
