Axial Yeti XL Review. Axial Yeti XL Review. How do you follow up one of the most hyped and anticipated rc vehicles of recent years? The Axial Yeti XL has a heck of a challenge ahead for it to not get lost in all the original Yeti news. Pure size alone may not be enough. Re: Ordering yeti xl kit today! Well TH is the place to get one right now, they are on sale for $430 + coupon for $370. RTR is $610 and my coupon gets it down to $520.

I'm really interested in an Axial Yeti to go alongside my 2wd Slash.
Buuut I'm also interested in my first lot build.
The Yeti looks like a pretty complex vehicle to build from a kit. I'm a mechanic, so I think I'd be able to handle it.
I'm aware that the kit comes with upgraded body parts, and I'll probably be able to put in a higher quality set of electronics, but is it worth it in the end? I'm really just looking for a basher that can handle all sorts of terrain, jump high and still pack some speed with a 3s.
Any thoughts about the kit vs RTR, from a difficulty standpoint?
