JPRC hey man love your videos too. How's the track in Berkeley doing New Bedford radio control Club. Anyways which one do you think is better. For racing down at Jeremy's track.
I know this is an old video, but it's still very important and I appreciate that you went to the trouble of making and posting it. It was a ton of help for me. Thank you.
I love these comparison's. Beautifully photographed, narrated and just the right information. You continue to hit it out of the park with your video's. Well done my friend.
i was really interested in the yeti then saw reviews of the RR and was pretty sure RR is a good buy but now after this video i want the yeti again lol. great video btw
Just bought the axial yeti, I know it’s discontinued but that’s why I bought it when I saw one available, so many parts still available, I have my basket full of most the parts that will make it a better racer, I’m going to try some closed cell foams in the stock tires and see how much it changes their performance. Worst case, I’ll have to buy new tires
Awesome video, very detailed and interesting. Thank you so much. I've been doing rc for several years but I've transioned from one to the other. I enjoy this hobby, it can be an expensive one but, it is what it is. Thx again, great job IMHO👍
I wish I would have seen your video before I bought my Baja ray. You are very right it is a good vehicle but any upgraded parts are hard find in they are expensive. When you have to pay a $100 for a new body that's a little ridiculous
A fair comparison. I don't recall the 2-speed option of the Yeti being mentioned, but it was the versatility of the Yeti that sold me on it over the 'Rey platform. As a fan of Losi products myself, I would take the SCBE over the Rock Rey, for performance and parts availability.
Rich, I just picked up a Rock Rey, went off your comment about out-of-the-box worthiness over the Yeti. Anyway, I see at minute 5:22 that your battery plug is a XT60, HOW?
that was a Great Video!! Lots of Useful Info! Thanks for All the Work You put into this!!! my cousin just got the Yeti...it is Awesome!! i think i want the Rock -Rey, to have something different.
So now on the 2018 do we have more parts available for the rock rey?? We just got it and its a lot of fun in the mud and snow and where is recomend it to get parts from
I just bought these 2 and wished I bought 2 rock Rey’s, the yeti had a king pin laying in the box when I’d opened it, the rock Rey would be twice as fast, much larger and a far better out of the box rtr in my opinion. In saying this I have nothing against Axial I have the yeti XL and love it.
Can I run either of these on NiMH battery? Also I am new to the hobby. I won’t be hurling the thing off cliffs. I don’t want anything that needs too many upgrades out of the box. I am alright with replacing servo horns and small things. Any advice? Leaning toward the rock Rey.
I have had both yeti an rock Rey . The rock Rey too me had more electrical issues then I liked strait out of the box the motor burnt up with in the first ten minutes took about a month too get it replaced under warranty the mesh was way too tight out of the box is the only thing I saw that caused it but who knows I know I had too reset it when I put the new motor in it an it was fine afterwards. The yeti I haven’t had any issues with it other then the front diff wore out do too a screw that was too long an was rubbing the ring gear in the front diff went through the top of the housing .
can u tell me difference in proline power stroke shock springs color code wise.i have a set of yellow and green marked springs and cannot tell by eye what the firmness difference is?great video comparison.you channel is top notch!!!
Well . That was absolutely worth the wait !!!🤘🤘🖒🖒😎😎. You do a sensational job editing these videos bro ..i really want a rock rey .. but part support is my hold back😓😢😢 .. living in Australia its not easy to get parts for newer vehicle's😥. That backflip with the Rey is awesome ! 👊👊😎👌🤘💪... Never new about the website 😨😨 heading there now 😀😀🖒🖒
You stated the Proline shocks for the Rock Rey are not ideal, are they better than the stock, if the Prolines are not ideal is there a better solution?
Ideal meaning the exact size. The fronts are almost as long as the stock and the rears are longer than stock. otherwise, they're a great upgrade from stock
Crystal Bennett I just did a quick google and the major aftermarket brands all have upgrades for the rock rey. SSD, Vanquish and Hot Racing all had parts and between the 3 I'd say it would be fully upgraded.
Hey dude i have a small problem with my yeti. At slow speed it goes straight. When i punch the throttle at full speed it wants to go to the right.. I know it has torq flex but does this stil effect it after top speed? Do you know the cause and solution? Thanks.
How did you get an mip x duty drive shaft to work on the losi rock Rey. It would be awesome to be able to have a driveshaft that last more than 3 to 5 battery pack
Brad Rad I explained it in a previous video on just the Rock Rey - you’ll have to dremel the end of one of the MIP outputs and then come up with a different sized pin screw.
Excellent review. I am trying to figure out between the summit and the losi rock rey. I know that was not the subject of the video. I am new getting into the hobby and will mostly trail/crawl it. Maybe some small jumps a local track. No stunt jumps at the skatepark or anything like that.
The summit has a lot more moving parts, like lockable diffs, etc. the Rock Rey def looks more scale with a solid rear axle vs the Summits all independent suspension.
I'm enjoying your videos and was looking at them to chose between the Rock ray the yeti or the bomber ill be doing some rock crawling and some trail riding and would love to do u4rc witch would you recommend i can get the kit or the rtr version.
The RCNetwork Hey Rich just picked up the rock rey and now to build it. Rock rey vs bomber any one better then the other? And do you still have the rock rey and do u race it.
@@TheRCNetwork was it hard to cut/shape the panels and paint the raw aluminium? I can order aluminium sheet 0.3mm on Ebay, would this work/what would I need to cut it to size?
I did not know you were so close to the Lake Forest spot!! love that spot, its a great spot for testing. But where is that other place at you were racing at? Awesome Video by the way. I just got a Axial Yeti. I know, I am late to the game. But it came with all these upgrades and I could not resist.
great info rich, but as an axial addict, i'm a little biased. i've got an empty shelf with yeti written all over it. problem is i just bought a bomber cage for a piece build, and i haven't even finished the scx10ii yet. oh yeah, i just broke my wraith too and i'm waiting on parts.
I have a quick question I want a new pair of tires for my axial bomber kit and I want proline hyrax tires but I cannot it find a rim that I could use. I'm looking for beadlock but I don't want to go over about 150$ Canadian any suggestions would be great
Great video Rich. Deciding between the Rock Rey or the axial Bomber kit, still can't decide lol. As far as electronics (motors, servos, esc) what are some of the less expensive brands you trust? Hobbywing, Turnigy, Power HD, Reedy etc...
Jesse King WR Rock Rey, and lock the center diff to be legal for 2.2” Indy. As you start racing, you’ll see the weak parts that need to be replaced - Tires/inserts, servo, steering rack to start.
I got my yeti two years ago and love it have hardly had to buy anything for it key word had and I just bought this truck but now knowing I can get hood parts from the extera and the wraith I knew but they discontinued parts for the yeti and I’m stocked I can get parts now
so it's the Axial for me, because upgrading is the hobby for me, making it your own to beat another, that's the fun of it, if I can personally make a yeti beat a rock rey then I have made a personal achievement I can be proud of. Thats winning.
You really love these rock racers that's been the majority of the content latetly...when we gonna see some 2 or 4wd buggy videos or some kind of racing content?
The Traxxas UDR I think is Traxxas’s version of these two. Great details about both vehicles, not a big fan of electric vehicles, I might convert one to gas powered just for fun.
One thing worth mentioning. Yeti shipped with all plastic balls in their rod ends.. they get super sloppy very quickly. Rock Rey ships with aluminum balls in the rod ends. Much better.
exo terra? wow that looks awesome! i want one! i'm gonna look that up! (wait for it...) aw crap! that was me in the winter of 14. i ended up getting one, but not so sure if i'm still happy about it.
Yeah, probably one of the worst kits from Axial - I paid $330 for a plastic kit....later reduced to $200 and now they're a cult item selling for almost double in some cases!
The RCNetwork i broke the front diff case a couple years ago, then shot the wad on a bunch of parts to upgrade it. i started to do so, but got distracted by a bunch of other builds. it's on the shelf half done. it's just not that fun to work on.
Neither at this point. They both have weaknesses that take you to the bench after every race. Out of the box, the Rock Rey is a better start over the Yeti. The Yeti will have a ton of part support though. I would skip both of these and build a Tekno DB48
The RCNetwork I’m considering getting a losi rock Rey, I’m a little concerned about the rear end durability with the c clip axle retainers, and I know the servo horns are an immediate repair point. I also heard the stock electronics run a little hot. I’ve been told to gear down. The fixed non adjustable motor mount concerns me a little cause you can’t adjust gear mesh just hole position.
Yep, all good concerns - the servo horn should be done on day one. The rest is a "play by ear" situation. It's a great buggy - I wouldn't worry about what other people are saying. You don't know their maintenance routine, lack of driving skill, etc.
! region is also important in europe the rock ray has allmost the better part support (if they are in stock it has) in the US axial wins any time in part support
I agree, but that might be changing for you too, being that Horizon somewhat pulled out of Europe....they might still have distribution, but presence will change
+Jimmy Louis I agree. Nope, they’re custom made .025” aluminum panels. Simply make a template and trace onto the aluminum. Cut out with tin snips and add some Freqeskinz graphics!
The Rock Rey is a good rig with a few adjustments. The RR setup is awful from the factory, damn thing won't even track straight (and yes I can drive an rc). The tires are too big, foams way too soft, diffs out bad with stock oil, and the stock steering setup has a comical amount of play and flex. Steel links all around, smaller tires and stiffer foams, HR steering setup and you've got a truck that will be capable on 3s.
The people that automatically go to Axial without giving Losi a shot are only punishing themselves. Sure Losi doesn't have the aftermarket support, but it doesn't need it. Axials need tons of upgrades out of the box.
TheImtoomuch I had three yetis and the yeti trophy truck! They all needed tons of aftermarket parts just to run. Axial is cheap with a plastic chassis! That's all you need to know!
The RCNetwork Don't forget that traxxas, the most successful rc company, still ships their cars with nimhs. @Devious rc, haha well you got a point there. :)
Great job Rich on the detail comparison video. Just the tittle alone deserves a thumbs up not to mention all the details but you went into.
Thanks Joe! Always great to see you in the comments!

Thanks Sheldon....working on my editing skills! lol
YOU MADE THIS SO HELPFUL FOR ME
A fair comparison. I don't recall the 2-speed option of the Yeti being mentioned, but it was the versatility of the Yeti that sold me on it over the 'Rey platform. As a fan of Losi products myself, I would take the SCBE over the Rock Rey, for performance and parts availability.
If you outfit the Yeti with a decent sensored brushless system, you won't need the 2 speed
GREAT video! Thanks for all the hard work. This is exactly the information that I was looking for.
Rich, I just picked up a Rock Rey, went off your comment about out-of-the-box worthiness over the Yeti. Anyway, I see at minute 5:22 that your battery plug is a XT60, HOW?

SP1TFYRE 8 it would work...but not very well. You’ll need to jump into Lipo to get any kind of performance out of them.
Great vid Rich. Well thought out comparison.

Never new about the website 😨😨 heading there now 😀😀🖒🖒
Thanks RCA! Yeah, I can imagine about Aus...there was a Bomber interior I wanted ($15 item) but with shipping it was about $75!
You stated the Proline shocks for the Rock Rey are not ideal, are they better than the stock, if the Prolines are not ideal is there a better solution?
Ideal meaning the exact size. The fronts are almost as long as the stock and the rears are longer than stock. otherwise, they're a great upgrade from stock
What strength are the red springs you have on the proline shocks and can you order them separately? Also will the wraith axle fit on the yeti please?
Yes, Wraith rear on the Yeti - you can check Pro-Line's website on the strength - the springs are sold as a kit
absolutely loved the video! Can you please do the same for a Wraith vs Bomber?
Possibly, but I don't have a good example of the Wraith....just the Wraith zilla
i have a fully built rock racer wraith
Great comparison video. Any updates to these two as far as opinions? Is the after market support better for the Losi now?
Crystal Bennett I just did a quick google and the major aftermarket brands all have upgrades for the rock rey.
SSD, Vanquish and Hot Racing all had parts and between the 3 I'd say it would be fully upgraded.

Hardcase, always for off road

How has the Yeti held up over time? Worth getting in 2022?
It does well after you spend some $$ on upgrades. Diff gears are the weak link

Not sure what the $150CD consistes of, but look into the SSD wheels - pretty affordable at $59 USD with the hub....and they're SLW compatible
or the incision rims are a great rim too

HOBBYWING FTW! Savox on cheaper servos....but spend the money on a good servo - they're outlast the car
Yeah I ended up going with Hobbywing on a Rock Rey kit. Seems like a good value.
Which MIP shaft were you running in the rear of that Rock Rey?
It was a custom one....being that I had to modify the couplers to fit the Rey as well as some custom pins that MIP offers

Which is your personal favorite?
Neither at this point. They both have weaknesses that take you to the bench after every race. Out of the box, the Rock Rey is a better start over the Yeti. The Yeti will have a ton of part support though. I would skip both of these and build a Tekno DB48
are they waterproof
The RTR's are...but not my race versions
Dang, wished axial would bring back the 1/10 yeti in kit form and RTR, and the bomber

The Losi can be bought as a kit now.
the only negative point of Yeti to me is the chassis. I like Rock Rey/Baja Rey's aluminum plate.
I have really beat on my Yeti....plastic isn't too bad of an issue
! region is also important
in europe the rock ray has allmost the better part support (if they are in stock it has)

No problem!
There both nice!
I agree...they just take different measures to get them race tough
With the Losi being $349 right now I'm thinking I'll go with it.
Yep, that's a good deal on the Rock Rey
249$ right now from most online retailers. Just ordered mine.
The stock bodywork on the Rock Rey is ugly... the bodywork you have on yours is SWEET... Proline?
+Jimmy Louis I agree. Nope, they’re custom made .025” aluminum panels. Simply make a template and trace onto the aluminum. Cut out with tin snips and add some Freqeskinz graphics!
Hey great video thanks
Thanks for stopping by!
Aftermarket support is key. Losi lacking that really hurts.
They're struggling to keep up....I don't think they knew how well these would sell
The Rock Rey is a good rig with a few adjustments. The RR setup is awful from the factory, damn thing won't even track straight (and yes I can drive an rc). The tires are too big, foams way too soft, diffs out bad with stock oil, and the stock steering setup has a comical amount of play and flex.
Steel links all around, smaller tires and stiffer foams, HR steering setup and you've got a truck that will be capable on 3s.
How fast is it on 2s? I'm not a speed demon anymore because every time I run 3s in my trucks I end up having to make a trip to my LHS.
i have the rock rey and it is an absolute beast but it is not really a great crawler out of the box
Yeah, it's geared more toward speed....and the sensorless system doesn't help with lower RPM's
gcm racing also makes parts for the losi. all of there parts are amazing quality but there specialty is for super scale crawler/trail trucks.
Yeti xl ;)

My traxxas rustler breaks alot
GAMERMIKE52, stop jumping it off buildings
It's a rock racer not a basher so of course it will break jumping the crap out of it.
err hows it RTR if you need a battery
RSmerlinRS the car is ready to be used, so it is ready to tun.
Many RTR cars are plagued by the Lipo shipping laws and including a Nimh battery these days is pointless. RTR is a relative term these days
The RCNetwork Don't forget that traxxas, the most successful rc company, still ships their cars with nimhs.
@Devious rc, haha well you got a point there. :)
They ship separately - One box, the RC and the other box the Lipo.....unless they changed it recently. The laws on shipping Lithium are getting strict
There aren't many RTRs that come with batteries included anyway, higher end RCs usually don't
Yeti
Losi all the way.
LOSI!!
It's probably the winner out of the box
I will take the axial! Actually i have the yeti trophy truck. Check my video!
