The SCX30 is quickly becoming one of the funniest—and most frustrating—little rigs I’ve worked on 😳
These tiny crawlers are honestly impressive. They’re tough, capable, and fun to drive around…
But actually WORKING on them?
That’s a completely different story.
Everything is microscopic:
👉 tiny screws
👉 tiny drivetrain parts
👉 tiny tools
👉 tiny patience 😂
Working on an SCX30 is definitely not for the faint of heart. One wrong move and parts disappear into another dimension.
I’m developing a serious love/hate relationship with this little thing.
When it works, it’s awesome.
When it needs wrenching? Absolute chaos 😈
In this short, I show off the struggle of working on these tiny rigs and why micros can be both amazing and unbelievably frustrating at the same time.
