I just took a look at the Super Class Crawlers from Integy, and they are a pretty impressive. But these requires a lot of thread lock I have to say.

From my experience with Integy parts it might end up in a pile of parts under my X-Crawler........................

It looks impressive because Integy didn't design it. Buy the original! http://www.rcpcrawlers.com/product.p...&cat=26&page=1

Well, I think Integy did made it, since it is using some alloy gearcases, caster blocks, and steering blocks that Integy made for the Clod. That chassis looks a bit different from the pictures.

I don't know about that t9d, I uses many alloy parts from Integy, and these crawlers all funny alloy as the X-Crawler.

I just saw one listed on ebay for about $550 including shipping. The X-Crawler goes for $400.

GTRice

Well, Tower got the X-Crawler for 400, the blue crawler is for 540, and the orange one is for 630. Pretty pricey, but getting the X-Crawler might save big bucks...

Integy Crawler=Noob crawler

GTRice

I don't know about that, there base on Clod crawlers, and they should be pretty good, if they are based from Clods.

Integy Quality is in question here

GTRice

Hmm, quality is not bad...but those crawlers requires expert level builders...shouldn't be that hard for me to assemble them...

That is exactly, what I am saying. The Integy crawler migth look good but so does all of their upgrade parts, but their quality control is lacking....................

GTRice

The only bad thing I had with Integy is there battery packs. But I don't think there parts are considered poor quality, I uses many of there alloy stuff, and there crawler is using the same type of alloy material.

Integy blatantly copied the Hustler after Integy officials visited the distribution center of RCP in CA for a "tour" and some "insight" into the crawling market.

The "Integy" axles are nothing more than copies of the original Tamiya Clod axles.

I've used some of Integy's items, some of it was OK. Some of it was crap. Don't support the rip off.

GTRice

The only Integy stuff that I found wasn't good quality is there batteries. But there chassis on there crawlers doesn't really look like the Hustler chassis, the way I sees it.

dezfan

Well this is the first version from Integy.


This is the "updated" version.


This is the original.

The Real Dogman

Holy Crap Dez!! I didn't realize they were such a close match!! Looks they bought a Hustler and built up a rig except for a few few very minor differences.

Well one more reason not to support Integy!!

dezfan

I didin't even mention the "Integy" tires that are included.

The Real Dogman

Do you mean the Moab Xl Clones??

GTRice

Thanks for the pictures! They are Moab tires?

Also, what is the difference between the MC01 and SS01?

I've heard they are Moab clones and I've heard they are made for Integy by Proline with no name on them. Either way......I'm staying far away from Integy.

dezfan

The MC01 is no more. The SS01 Hustler clone is "their" new rig.

The tires are clones as well w/ a slight lug change in a horrible compound.

GTRice

MC01 is no more? But you can still get them from Tower. But it's kind of weird for them to make the MC01, than a month later, they make a another version of it, the SS01.

dezfan

The SS01 has been advertised pretty heavily the last few months while the "original" has not. Either way, I wouldn't buy it.

hands without shadows

For what its worth, this guy gives great advice everywhere. I would take it.

GTRice

Well, I like the SS01, but it's a bit expensive, well it is all alloy and gear for super rock crawling. Who have one of these anyways, was wondering about that, since Tower has it in stock, there should be someone posting up there opinions about it soon.
