Why I Bought a Second SCX30 — Testing, Mods, and a Motor Tease 👀  @HolmesHobbies
Uploaded February 2026 | Updated September 2026, 2 weeks ago
I picked up another Axial SCX30 for testing — This one just looks right to me.

In this video I give you a closer look at:
✔ Why I prefer the look & feel of this unit
✔ My plans to mod the controller (make it smaller & cleaner)
✔ And a sneak tease of a new micro crawler motor that I’m developing — one that fits this rig perfectly and is going to be an amazing slow, steady powerhouse for indoor crawling and Lego courses. 😈

If you’ve been following the channel, you know
• I didn’t always love micro rigs,
• But this one has really come around on me,
• And the motor I’m working on is going to be something special.
