SCX24 Jeep Gladiator RC Truck, Black, AXI00005V2T5

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.

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.

This little jeep matches the one he's got. It runs well and living alone gives you all the time you need to play with it. Its fun and has a controller.

For the size it’s a lot of fun my 5 year old grandson loves it.

The Charging system that came with the vehicle was defective and only worked one time. Amazon worked with me to resolve this issue with a new charger and batteries for the vehicle. I am pleased with the overall purchase and experience with Amazon customer service.

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!

It’s a fun little truck to drive, and surprised this noob with what it can do. Maybe I’m being too picky, but for the price I expected a bit more. The ESC is mounted improperly (it’s off by about 20%), the stickers aren’t aligned very well being misplaced and crooked, and you can tell the linkage is on the economical side which means it is pretty loose and doesn’t like to go very straight. The battery life seems pretty good and the durability seems about average so far. I’m relatively happy with the purchase, I’m just not overly impressed for the cost (which I’m sure, for the enthusiast, is an entry-level cost).

Love it! Great place to get it. Saved 20 bucks this way. Already modifying it to my taste.

Hoher Preis aber auch ein gutes Produkt- steht seinen 1:10 Geschwistern in nichts nach. Gerade dieses Modell mit etwas mehr Länge hat auch ein paar Vorteile beim Crawling. Zudem gibts auch hier viel Zubehör und Ersatzteile.

Es un gran producto, se siente de buena calidad y listo para usar!! Es el primer producto de Axial RC que compro y comparando con otras marcas (no reconocidas) la diferencia es abismal. Gran regalo de cumpleaños!

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...

Pessima…con quello che costa appena ricevuta alla seconda ricarica la batteria già non caricava più….batteria difettosa mi hanno confermato

The truck is great, however the battery died in the first week and the charger also stopped working in the first week, I know they aren’t sold new anymore but I’m a bit disappointed by the quality I would still recommend it to people who want to mod it, from a newbie point trust me you won’t keep it stock for long, after changing the motor servo and battery, it works great, but for the price point it’s more expensive and not worth what you get, at this price point you could buy a 1/10 scale
