Hey everyone from Germany,

I'm thinking about getting my first crawler.

I used to have RC cars, but I haven't been in the hobby for a while. I do airsoft on the side, so I know a bit about tinkering and batteries.

There's a crawler group nearby that mainly uses 1/10s. And recently, an RC shop opened that has a crawler track in addition to an RC race track (on-road and off-road).

I also live in an area with plenty of trails.

Lots of rambling.

The main question:

Should I go for 1/10 scale with an Absima 12025 or Yikong YK41015, or 1/12 scale with something like an MJX H12Y+?

My budget is around €200 to start with. I'd rather upgrade here and there than spend a lot all at once if I don't end up liking it. (or my wife finds out :D )
