Axial Wraith
 

What are your thoughts on the axial Wraith? I think it's awesome! This is kinda like a summit but more on the crawling side!

The Wraith Ready-to-Run 1/10th Scale Electric 4WD Rock Racer is another ‘first’ for Axial with the first and most realistic full tube-frame chassis design that is manufactured with high strength composite materials. The Wraith is built to go fast and is not just a low speed rock crawler. It changes the game with its impressive 1:1 scale looks, high-speed monster truck ‘bashability’ and technical ‘crawl’ capabilities. The most versatile vehicle satisfying the needs of a wide range of enthusiasts, its realistic looks, drivability and ready-to-run ease make this vehicle the perfect blank canvas for the enthusiast looking for a vehicle to build upon. Within the 1:1 (full size) crawl & off-road race segments, overall tire diameters have been on the rise, literally and directly influencing the R/C crawl segment, thus this Axial Ripsaw reflects this attraction of flirting with rocks at speed with a compelling design that will give your rig the aggressive competition look and performance. R/C crawlers will clearly benefit with larger ground clearance where it counts as the Ripsaw measures 5.5" (140mm) in diameter. This gives the lowest point on the 4X4 axle housing more clearance thus giving you many more tactical driving options in those sticky predicament.

They are going to be kickass!

Looks good
 

When is that going to be out ?And I wounder what it will cost?

Rpp has the pre-order at $364.00
Looks like it may be a good little rock racer/scaler.I really think it will bring more new people into the whole crawler/ scaler scene.:nod:

AGREE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:nod:

Not to sure how that composite tube chassis would be for bashing though...
The ESC looks pretty slick and the mounting..

Take a peak at this video about the new Axial Wraith 4WD Rock Racer.. very nice and cool rig... can't wait to get one.. :lol:

+ YouTube Video

...
 

i cant wait to get one i was told it will be out late may cost of 365.oo

i think it is a pretty cool truck to have, both speed and crawling ability in one truck is awesome.

IF the composite plastic they use is anything like that of the G-Made R1. Then it will be tough as hell.

That's a very aggressive/sick design! :sneaky:

Wow... ''Wraith'' or ''Weird'' design for a crossbreed.... I dont think the plastic composite might out stand for hard bashing... The Drive Shaft will giveway first.... I rather stick to my electric truggy... :sweat:

I want one, i almost bought a night crawler a few months ago. Now Im so glad I waited,. this thing is gonna be a blast in the desert!!

The Wraith is 1 of the sickest KOH style rigs out there!!! If you look the esc it has an amazing resemblance to the cc sidewinder and it can be programmed with the castle link. And for the composite cage will be just fine. When I was running my honcho body I rolled the piss outta it and it was just fine. The debut date is mid may. It should be coming out before the MSD nats at the end of may. HMMM I wonder what the spec class is gonna be this year!!:lol: Here is a couple more pics.
