1/10 Axial SCX10 III 4WD Rock Crawler Builder's Kit

The SCX10 has long been the RC platform of choice for scale trail enthusiasts. The Axial 1/10 SCX10 III Builder's Kit 4x4 Rock Crawler takes that proven foundation and adds the latest performance upgrades found on current Axial Ready-to-Run products. This is your starting point for building a rig that won't look like anyone else on the trail.

Kit building is a hobby perfectly suited for Axial enthusiasts, many of whom are passionate about tinkering with and modifying their rigs. There's no better starting point for your custom build than the SCX10 III Builder's Kit. It's a classic crawling platform carrying a wealth of proven Axial quality and innovation.

The Builder's Kit advantages go well beyond the satisfaction of putting together your own rig. The assembly process turns you into an expert on its engineering and a pro at maintenance and repairs. Most importantly, you're able to express your individuality by choosing a body style you like and finishing it however you wish. By adding your personal preference in tires, wheels, body, and electronics, you create a custom crawler inside and out. Compared to buying an RTR rig that comes fully equipped, the kit ensures you won't pay for anything you won't use.

RC crawling segment is shifting toward more performance. Performance means lower center of gravity, strategic weight distribution, and other key elements that lead to a more capable rig in all conditions. The Builder's Kit delivers these upgrades.

The new performance shock towers give you multiple mounting options to tune and optimize your suspension. Mount your shocks vertical for a linear feel or angle them for a progressive feel and lower center of gravity. Going hand in hand with the shock towers, the metal panhard mount is built for durability. It handles the majority of side load in the 3-link front suspension and is designed to work with both straight and portal axles, keeping your suspension triangulated under stress.

Three modular battery trays accommodate 88mm, 100mm, and 112mm length batteries. Each tray accepts battery widths from 35-47mm. All three rubber elastomer hold-downs are included, giving you flexibility for most battery styles in the market.

Boat-Side Sliders feature smooth bottoms to help you slide across rocks. They include screw openings for side-mounted battery trays (AXI231008, sold separately) and two slots for velcro straps if you prefer a lightweight setup with a small pack.

The transmission can be externally locked in standard 4WD, but it also has an optional, servo-actuated DIG feature. The DIG feature lets drivers lock the rear wheels for sharper turns, faster pivots, and better control on difficult terrain. Robust 6mm high-clearance stainless steel links with upgraded rod ends are included, as well as Standard AR45 straight axles. If you prefer portal axles, the LCXU transmission makes it easy to switch with a single gear change.

The kit includes eleven universal body mounts, giving you all the options needed to properly mount whichever body you choose.

The Axial 1/10 SCX10 III Builder's Kit 4x4 Rock Crawler gives you the perfect foundation for your next build-the proven single-piece SCX10 III steel C-channel chassis, an optimized suspension and steering, and a trail-tough drivetrain. When you add your choice of body, tires, wheels, and electronics, it's a rig you can truly call your own.
