I was just having a blast with my AX-10 when Losi pulls this out of their hat!!
What a cool little crawler! It comes in four color choices, and has a motor/ESC combo that has more than enough ooomph to crawl over some serious ascents. Obviously, the MRC cannot tackle climbs it's larger brethren can, but it CAN climb some amazing things! I just let mine loose in the back yard, and climb anything and everything this little crawler can handle!
The Losi Mini Rock Crawler is a true RTR. You require nothing more than what's in the box to go crawling! Stuff some batteries in the transmitter (included), charge the included NiMh battery (charger also included), plug it in and GO! The battery is good for about 17-20 minutes of climbing. Plug in a similar sized LiPo battery and go LONGER!
Now THIS is the best beginner crawler I can recommend to anyone who wants to go crawling on a budget. Crawling for the masses! What a concept...Read more

It's not a toy!,

This is the hottest thing in the rc car world right now. The Mini Rock Crawler is superb when it comes to crawling. But my steering servo is already broken. I've already ordered a stronger servo with metal gears to replace it. It is upgradeable but be aware that the panhead screws will strip out at the head if you use an inferior or metric hex drive. Check out the Losi site for all the upgrade items for this model...not toy! You can turn this car into a very capable climber with upgrades.
