Axial has just taken the extremely popular Axial AX10 Scorpion chassis and created a Ready-to-Run truck with two different configurations!

The factory configuration is a 20t pinion with the rear axles locked allowing you to attack the track at full speed. Want to take it slow? All you have to do is swap out the 20t pinion with the already supplied 14t pinion gear and install the front axle lockers (parts also included), this second setup allows you to get the RC rock crawling performance you’re looking for!

One of the heaviest components on the Axial AX10 Scorpion rock crawler is the engine. Axial has designed the transmission to place as much weight as low as possible the motor still remains heavy. So Axial has developed a new part which will help decrease the weight of the motor by allowing you to run lighter motors, an outrunner style motor.

The Axial AX10 Scorpion outrunner moter plate is sized to allow you to use the small lightweight outrunner motors. The new Axial outrunner motor plate replaces the stock motor plate and can be easily installed. The Axial AX10 Scorpion outrunner moter plate is also made from 2.5mm 6061 aluminum for added rigidity and light weight.
