There is no better starting point for your custom build than the SCX10 III build kit. It is a classic rock crawling platform that features all the quality and proven innovation of the brand. Axial.

The advantages of a building kit go far beyond the satisfaction of assembling your own vehicle. The assembly process turns you into an expert in its engineering and a professional in maintenance and repairs. And most importantly, you can express your individuality by choosing the body style you like and finishing it as you wish. By adding your personal preferences regarding tires, wheels, body, and electronics, you create a customized crawler inside and out. Compared to buying a fully equipped RTR vehicle, the kit ensures that you won't pay for anything you won't use.

The RC crawler segment is evolving towards higher performance. Performance means a lower center of gravity, a strategic weight distribution, and other key elements that result in a more capable vehicle in all conditions. The construction kit offers these improvements.

The new high-performance shock towers offer you multiple mounting options to adjust and optimize your suspension. Mount the shocks vertically for a linear feel or tilt them for a progressive feel and a lower center of gravity. Matching the shock towers, the Panhard metal support is built to provide great durability. It withstands most of the lateral load in the front 3-link suspension and is designed to work with both straight axles and portal axles, keeping the triangulated suspension under tension.

The three modular battery trays accommodate batteries measuring 88 mm, 100 mm, and 112 mm in length. Each tray can hold batteries with a width between 35 and 47 mm. The three rubber elastomer fastenings are included, providing flexibility for most battery types on the market.

The side sliders for boats have a smooth base that helps them slide over 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 backpack.

The transmission can be externally locked in standard 4WD, but it also has an optional servo-operated DIG function. The DIG function allows drivers to lock the rear wheels for tighter turns, quicker pivots, and better control on difficult terrain. It includes robust 6mm high stainless steel links with improved rod ends, as well as standard AR45 straight axles. If you prefer portal axles, the LCXU transmission makes it easy to switch with just one gear change.

The kit includes eleven universal body mounts, providing you with all the necessary options to correctly mount any body you choose.

The construction kit Axial 1/10 SCX10 III 4x4 Rock Crawler offers the perfect base for your next build: the proven SCX10 III one-piece steel C-channel chassis, with optimized suspension and steering, and a rugged all-terrain transmission. When you add the body, tires, wheels, and electronic components of your choice, you will have a vehicle that you can truly call your own.

STANDARD AXIS AR45

The kit includes standard straight AR45 axles that reflect what is found in most full-size off-road vehicles. The design of the LCXU transmission also makes it easy to switch from standard axles to portals if desired.

LCXU DIG TRANSMISSION

The LCXU transmission in the kit can be externally locked in standard 4WD, but it also has an optional servo-actuated digging function to enhance steering and control.

OPTIMIZED SUSPENSION

The suspension features updated 6mm stainless steel links and fully metal pivot balls for increased all-terrain durability. The adjustable oil-filled shocks have aluminum threaded bodies and a single coil spring.

STEEL FRAME WITH C-CHANNEL SCX10 III

Its one-piece steel chassis with C-channel is easy to handle, reduces frame flexion, and increases suspension movement precision.

ADJUSTABLE METALLIC PANHARD ROD SUPPORT

The adjustable metal Panhard support resists cracks and deformations under tension, especially when combined with high-strength tires or powerful servos. The support can be positioned forward or backward to accommodate a portal or straight axle setup.

FULLY METALLIC GEARS

In addition to the fully metallic internal gears for greater strength and durability, the LCXU transmission also features a full set of ball bearings for smooth and efficient driving.

THREE BATTERY TRAY OPTIONS

There are three tray options for batteries of different sizes that fit short, standard, or long packs. Use high-capacity packs for endurance rides or lighter, more compact packs for crawling competitions, where weight savings are important.

NEW BATTERY HOLDER

A new battery mount in the SCX10 III construction kit allows for placing the battery in front of the transmission to improve weight distribution and balance.

FULL BALL BEARINGS

Less friction and higher efficiency, which translates into longer operating times and a longer lifespan for the components. Full ball bearings resist wear, so you will spend less time adjusting and more time practicing crawling.

6 MM SUSPENSION LINKS

Greater resistance and durability, which reduces bending and breaking under tension. The reduced bending of the 6 mm links improves steering response and minimizes unwanted movements, such as axle steering, torque twist, etc.

OIL-FILLED SHOCK ABSORBERS

The oil-filled adjustable shocks allow you to finely adjust the suspension of your SCX10 III build kit for maximum traction, stability, and smooth performance on any terrain, while also protecting your equipment from strong impacts. Adjust the oil viscosity and spring preload to suit the terrain, weight, and driving style.

FULLY METALLIC PIVOT BALLS

All pivot points are on stainless steel balls that provide long-lasting and durable performance. The metal pivot balls maintain a constant movement under load, even when the vehicle twists over rocks.
