The axles have been designed with many features that are not available from other products on the market. Everything from the axle strength, pinion angle, caster, and ground clearance were taken into consideration when designing these axles. The result is a far superior axle that will stand-up to some severe punishment. To ensure added longevity from the start an aluminum diff locker is included along with hardened drive shafts.

- Xtreme RC, James Revilla, Oct. 2007. |

The AX10 Scorpion chassis is lightweight and stiff. Twin 2.5mm aluminum side plates are tied together with aluminum posts that create a rigid structure. The molded nylon skid/transmission plate is designed not only to be strong, but it's radiused edges aid in preventing hang-up's on jagged surfaces. Additional design features include channeled grooves which assist in directional stability. Scale was also taken into consideration, and the chassis was made as small and compact as possible to cut weight as much as possible. A simple, yet highly functional battery/radio tray makes installation of your electronics quick and easy. Wheel base is adjustable from 304mm ~ 320mm.

| "I'll admit that I wasn't much of a rock crawling fan until i actually drove a crawler, and since then I've been hooked. Take the time to drive one, and you'll probably find yourself skipping Starbucks for a month to save up some scratch for your new Axial AX10 Scorpion crawler." - Stephen Bess, R/C Car Magazine, April 2008 |

The AX10 Scorpion transmission was designed to place the weight of the motor as low as possible to maintain a low CG (Center of Gravity). The ultra compact transmission doesn't compromise performance because it also allows for a wide range of gearing choices. The overall ratio can be adjusted from 15:1 all the way up to 74:1 using different pinion/spur gear choices which allows for super high speed or to competition level crawling speed. The transmission is locked with no differential action which allows for both wheels to get the maximum amount of traction. The out-drive shafts come in a hard anodized aluminum for added durability.

| "We found we could climb, straddle and cleanly exit an 85mm high box, and get one wheel to pass right over an obstacle 150mm high while the other three wheels remained in contact with the floor. Simply amazing and satisfying entertainment..." - Radio Race Car International, Peter Gray, Jan 2008 |

Super long nitride coated shocks offer a wider range of articulation as well as an optional range of spring rates allow you to custom tune your crawler to work on a wide range of terrain. All suspension links are made from strong lightweight aluminum. The driveshaft is made from super strong composite material and features hardened metal yokes.

No crawler would be complete without the essentials, and the AX10 Scorpion is outfitted with the popular 2.2 Rockster beadlocks sporting green rock rings. The Rocksters are wrapped with our Rock Lizard all terrain tire which were designed to attack an extremely wide range range of terrain. Also included is the retro styling of our B-17 Betty body in .040” thick polycarbonate. This body will withstand repeated abuse even though it's named "Betty".
