Incredible Little Crawler with Big Performance!
I honestly didn’t expect this much capability out of such a small rig. The SCX24 Jeep Gladiator is hands-down one of the most fun RCs I’ve owned. Right out of the box, it’s solid — the detail on the Gladiator body is awesome, and it feels rugged despite its size. The longer wheelbase compared to other SCX24s gives it extra stability on climbs and side hills, which really helps when you’re crawling over rocks or trail obstacles. Battery life is surprisingly good — I get about 30–40 minutes of crawling per charge depending on terrain. The included transmitter is comfortable and responsive, and the proportional throttle makes precise crawling easy even for beginners. I’ve added a few small upgrades (brass wheel weights and better tires), but honestly, it performs great stock too. If you’re looking for a high-quality mini crawler that you can run indoors or outdoors, this little Jeep Gladiator is perfect. Durable, capable, and just a blast to drive. I’d give it 6 stars if I could!

Another Amazing axial
As someone who's already deep into the SCX24 platform, I can't help but get a little giddy every time a new model comes out—especially when I find one on sale. The SCX24 has always been an amazing entry point into the world of RC crawling, and the Axial SCX24 Gladiator is a perfect example of why. This is my second SCX24, and it's easily my favorite of the bunch. What makes the Gladiator so great is its longer wheelbase and solid performance right out of the box. While the other SCX24 models are fantastic, the Gladiator's extended chassis gives it a more stable and capable feel on the rocks and trails. It's less prone to flipping backward on steep inclines, and the longer body, a fantastic scale replica of the real Jeep, looks incredible as it flexes over obstacles. Axial has really dialed in the electronics on the newer SCX24 models, and the Gladiator is no exception. The low-speed control is excellent, allowing you to make precise, slow movements to navigate technical terrain. You can truly feel the difference, and it makes the crawling experience so much more enjoyable. The SCX24 platform is already known for its huge aftermarket support, and the Gladiator is no different. From brass weights to better servos and motors, there are endless ways to customize and upgrade it. But honestly, even in its stock form, this truck is highly recommended. If you're looking for your first micro crawler or adding to your collection, and you see the Gladiator on sale, do yourself a favor and pick one up. You won't regret it.

Sweet little rig, I'm hooked
This thing crawls really well, I am impressed. Lots of fun, tons of upgrades available. Took it out on the rocks and had a blast. Worth the money in my opinion. Really long run time. About to upgrade shocks, wheels, and tires for more clearance and grip.

Excellent Jeep! So much fun!
Grandson said it was the best RC he’s ever had. Loves that it’s so much quieter than the others and can go up and down inclines without rolling on its own when he stops it midway. It’s lightweight and durable.

Great starter crawler
My first crawler! Surprisingly, easy to drive. I did some quick research and found this to be one of the better options for starters and enthusiast alike. While there are cheaper options, the Axial trucks seem to hit the sweet spot for price and quality. The 1/24 is not a tiny car but it's also not huge. It's a perfect beginner size for someone who wants to get into the hobby without breaking the bank. The battery life is good. It looks great but the wheels could be better. Fortunately, there are tons of inexpensive upgrades. The prices only reflect the car cover. The internals are all the same.

Our second SCX24
My son loves this truck (11 years old)-on weekends we spent racing at the hobby shop, he had decided this was the one he wanted. It's light, nimble, the battery charges quickly, it has prewired LEDs on the front bumper, the accessories are removable and it takes minimal space. We've designed a course for it to run on and he tests the capabilities all the time-plenty of roll overs and binding moments and yet, not breaking-it just keeps going. Whether inside or outside, there's always somewhere it can be driven and keep my son busy. It's far better than his phone or his switch. It's highly functional and agile in all conditions its been subjected to this far. For the price, its a very capable truck and a solid area of aftermarket support to make it even better.

Do not buy
I would never tell anyone to buy this jeep ever it stopped working after the first charge its bricked the wheels move left an right that's about it and I. Have a ton of Archie cars. I have another horizon hobby. Car works perfectly fine. This one is a piece of junk. I would never recommend this car to anybody. There's no reason why it should stop running.It's not like it fell off of a 50 foot legend, blue in half or you know, even I didn't drive it to your water.The battery died.I charged it and then it doesn't work after that.It's pathetic t

Open Box RTR - No Battery Included
3 Stars due to wrong product description. This is a great little truck, my first crawler and I like it - but description from the seller was wrong. It showed open-box RTR but in new shape at $10 discount. Okay, I wasn't sure if I'd like this so okay if open but still in relatively new shape and I save a couple bucks. Nope - NO battery! So not a RTR and unusable as rec'd. Luckily I had a very old battery that I changed connector. The old batt seems kinds slow but at least I can use it a little and waiting for new battery to arrive.

Atention ce crawler ne dépasse pas 2 km/h, de plus il a une marche arrière saccadée. Peu de changement en passant à 75 ou 50% où on rrive à 1,8 km/h. On se traine derriere sa voiture...

Me encantó desde el primer uso, muy bonita apariencia, excelente poder seleccionar tres velocidades y aunque no lo he retado con muchos obstáculos los pocos que ha enfrentado lo ha hecho muy bien, me parece muy recomendable y me ha dejado con ganas de adquirir algún otro Axial de alguna escala mas grande
