For crawling the canyon tires are hard to beet...thanks for showing us just how great this is on the rocks.. I had no idea just how great they are on this kind of surface..I've seen other videos, yet this one by far is the best...showing exactly what the Summit can do with a good driver at the controller. Thanks
I'm a noob to the RC world, but I bought a 3.3 Revo, Brushless E-Revo, Summit 1/8, and Summit 1/16. My neighbor has the HPI Savage XL 5.9. I love my Summit so much, I bought a second.
This is one of the best video's showing what a driver, with some experience can do with a stock Summit. The Summit is a good truck ( I have one) but the real credit is the one driving! Thanks for sharing...this was GREAT! Racing F4ver
I think it crawls pretty darn good for all the hard core crawler guys sayin it aint a crawl, its just not technically a scale crawler but can outperform most of them
This video inspired me to get my summit! And I can agree with the other posts on here. Very nice maneuvering around the rock formations. Now if only I could find somewhere like the area above to play in, lol. I have taken my summit to a mountain bike trailing area.
THE BEST crawlin vid I've viewed - bar none!! Not only was the crawler awesome but your experience & technique operating was better than I've seen comin from some "built up" crawlers out there that cost 3 times as much. I'm going to take another serious look at the Summit again before I invest 2 to 3 times as much for a crawler that can even get close to what this summit can do. Thanks
Great SUMMIT vid mate, I love the sound that the summit tyres make, no other tyres sound like that! When your doing high speed and doing jumps, the sound is incredible ha ha.....love it. Oh and no other car creaks as good as a SUMMIT either LOL (-;
Hello Very interrestuing et marvelous vidéo !! The summit is t he original out of the box in this video? Thank you for this moment of pure pleasure for the eyes. A true lesson in 3D trial
No, if your referring to the fact that sometimes only one rear wheel spins is cause sometimes it's better only having the front locked. If your referring to the squeak than it's probably the rear plastic drive shaft doing it thing, lol.
Nice vid. I'm wishing I had some lipos for mine. Looking to get into a lipo set up here soon since all of my nimh packs have tanked on me. Some very nice driving there too, good throttle control.
So bone stock? Wow! I drove my buddy's Summit and drove it like my SCX10, I think maybe his diffs weren't locking, yours looked LOCKED UP! Real nice video, starting to work on getting a Summit as my "do everything" fun rig.
I think it would've performed better if the front suspension was softer. It sits at its fully extended downward range with barely any upward range. Just a suggestiom
I agree, this was when I first bought it and like the 3rd time out this is how it came stright out of the box. There has been lots of changes since then. lol. but thanks for the info cause you just never know :)
+Hayden McDonald The joints and center driveshafts can get rather dry and start to squeak. It's no biggie though. Both my summits creak and groan and it's hard to keep them from doing it.
+Alex Ha Yeah mine does the same thing. Think it did that out of the box. I don't care though, think it adds character. And I still haven't had to replace a single part or even adjust anything. The thing just works, every time. Hell I don't even bother washing it properly, as long as it's dry and there's no mud etc on it.
i would get a summit, the slash ultimate is a good trailing truck, but the summit is an even better one, and you can crawl with it, which you cant do with a slash.
my summit makes that squeaking nose to i am pretty sure it is the drive shaft cvd just needs to be greased up a little, to any one who is thinking about getting a summit STOP thinking right now and go buy it, if you have the money it is pretty expensive i have definitely got my moneys worth though.

Yes they are stock Summit tires, Canyon AT's. They realy do great, I seem to run these most of the time.

Great skilled driver! Nice ride.. It makes me want to have my next upgrade to Summit :) Thank you for this Vid.
THIS is the ultimate test I think.

I'm actually impressed. Didn't think it could handle rocks that well. Nice! :D
Hey thanks man and I gotta say your going to have soooo much fun... congrat's on your purchase :) I just got mine Aug 16, 2012 and just cant stop lol.
the best summit's video
Awesome vid man! I'm right around the corner on salt spring. Thought the venue seemed familiar. Nice skills! Get mine today in green.! Sweeeettt.
Summit is the BEST !!! Perfect stones for Summit!
Hello
Very interrestuing et marvelous vidéo !!
The summit is t he original out of the box in this video?
Thank you for this moment of pure pleasure for the eyes.

Nice job. I need to find some big rocks to crawl with my summit, looks like fun. Subbed.
So bone stock? Wow! I drove my buddy's Summit and drove it like my SCX10, I think maybe his diffs weren't locking, yours looked LOCKED UP! Real nice video, starting to work on getting a Summit as my "do everything" fun rig.
These rocks are perfect! Your vid makes me want to get a Summit!
Yes, completely stock right out of the box, awesome!
is it all waterproof ? also why it makes that noise while receiving signals from the transmitter to the receiver ?
SPC 8200 mah 50C Lipo's from spcracing great quality batteries with a good reputation, very popular with the Traxxas Summit Forum community.
I think it would've performed better if the front suspension was softer. It sits at its fully extended downward range with barely any upward range. Just a suggestiom
The sound is from the brushed electric motor under they all sound the same
I agree, this was when I first bought it and like the 3rd time out this is how it came stright out of the box. There has been lots of changes since then. lol. but thanks for the info cause you just never know :)
Better than my Losi Crawler!!! Awesome video man.
It crawls very good box stock, thanks for sharing
those tires looking very soft and sticky ! is that the stcock tires ?
Sick video man i have my summit in 2 weeks
what lipo battery would you suggest, i need to buy some for my summit the stock ones do not give me enough run time, thanks
Tight springs! Haha let those tires move!
Thanks for the video, enjoyed watching it.
AWESOME!! i think it's the best summit video on youtube.
was your rear diff stripped?
awesome man i get my summit in 2 days so stoked!!
but you could eventually oil your shocks or just add some grease
Nice vid! I also just got a blue one. It's a beast at crawling
Yeah what he said. I just bought one 2 weeks ago. Fun Fun Fun.
What is that cracking squeaking sorta noise?
+Hayden McDonald The joints and center driveshafts can get rather dry and start to squeak. It's no biggie though. Both my summits creak and groan and it's hard to keep them from doing it.
+Alex Ha oh ok
thank u
do you know of any ways to keep them from squeaking? mine does the same thing.
+Alex Ha Yeah mine does the same thing. Think it did that out of the box. I don't care though, think it adds character. And I still haven't had to replace a single part or even adjust anything. The thing just works, every time. Hell I don't even bother washing it properly, as long as it's dry and there's no mud etc on it.
where is this ????
it sounds like the car has a brushless motor in it
good vid, it sounds like you need some shock oil with all that creaking haha
Hi mate great video. Are the diffs locked in in this video
how often do you go through diffs?
great video
Is it a fast truck ??
i love my SUMMIT
Thanks and yes most of the time
thanks man cant wait to start making my own vids!!
Hey thanks for the awesome comment :)
Suspension didn't seem to articulate enough. Gotta crank down those springs bud.
is it original pignon/spuur geer on it?
Yes
Yes. This was when I just bought the summit and fresh out of the box
Is that stock
Thanks.
I can't decide between the slash ultimate and the summit
i would get a summit, the slash ultimate is a good trailing truck, but the summit is an even better one, and you can crawl with it, which you cant do with a slash.
oulala super summit bravo
my summit makes that squeaking nose to i am pretty sure it is the drive shaft cvd just needs to be greased up a little, to any one who is thinking about getting a summit STOP thinking right now and go buy it, if you have the money it is pretty expensive i have definitely got my moneys worth though.
whao excellent video
Fast enough for how it's built, somewhere around 18 - 20 mph.
wow awesome video :) how much did you bought this great truck $$??
Antreas Cy Thanks and paid about $600 or $650 CAD for it
ohh too expensive... thanks for the fast reply :)
Good vid BUT What the hell is that sound?
Nice 1!
yeah I can't find anyone here with summits
Wow
that motor has also me power
i will never get a summit
cool
Ur springs look too stiff
mec change tes pistons il grince trop
Yes, completely stock right out of the box, awesome!
What battery are u using?
Thanks.
