Description
The Axial SCX10 II Deadbolt RTR 4WD Rock Crawler is a highly capable, and easily upgradeable RC rock crawler that's perfectly suited for both experienced adventurers and hobby newcomers. This rock crawler is built on the proven SCX10 II chassis and comes equipped with oil-filled shocks and scale Nitto Trail Grappler tires. By combining both rugged scale looks with exceptional handling performance, this truck is ready to take on twisty, rough terrain.
Using the SCX10 II chassis this chassis features durable steel with cross braces for reinforcement and rigidity. The contoured skid plate significantly reduces hang-ups, and the simplified design makes maintenance quick and easy. The SCX10 II platform also allows for an adjustable wheelbase, adjustable body mounts, adjustable bumper mounts with swaybar mounting points, and mounting points for an optional 2-speed transmission and servo winch (both sold separately). The included LCX AX10 transmission, with a three-gear layout, heavy-duty slipper, sealed gear cover, and all-metal gears, accepts a wide range of gearing options. Its overall ratio can be adjusted using optional pinion and spur gear choices for super high speed or competition-level crawling speed.
Just as a full-size truck has its steering box located on the frame, Axial® places the Deadbolt's adjustable servo mount on the SCX10 II chassis frame and allows a wide range of servos to be used. Universal joint axles permit up to 45° of steering and provide an efficient, high-performance drivetrain. The single-piece AR44 front and rear axles feature a molded truss for extreme durability. The pinion gear is 6mm above the differential pinion center-line for higher ground clearance and improved driveshaft angles. Metal dog bones and helical cut internal gears are standard equipment, and the drivetrain includes full, high-quality ball bearings.
