The 13-year-old boy trapped inside my head went ahead and bought a radio-controlled micro crawler and I totally just stood by and let it happen. (feddit.uk)

Already got made fun of by some teenagers with more fragile egos and less expendable income than me.

Could've just asked and I would've let them try!

Axial SCX24 Base Camp for those interested.

Edit: I've got around 3 kilometers on the odometer already. Good for something with the max speed of around 0.5km/h

    First mods were already in the mail before the truck had even arrived.

    As it should be. Excitement leads to hobby part accrual, don't forget repair parts, tools and storage.

    Edit: having broken a few parts myself, I wocus on parts for the diffs and drivetrain followed by steering components. Have fun crawling!
