Jeep JT Gladiator Rubicon RTR RC Rock Crawler – AXI03006T1

Overview

The scale crawling playing field has changed now with the arrival of the Axial SCX10 III Jeep JT Gladiator. Upgraded from the proven SCX10 platform, this RC Crawleroffers a larger 355mm wheelbasetoaccommodateamorerealisticbody and aDIGfunctionto get you up, over and throughyour favourite crawling obstacles.

Axial climbs to the peak of scale rock crawling with the ready-to-run SCX10 III Jeep JT Gladiator. The upgraded chassis offers a third-channel DIG function plus 14-inch wheelbase that allows Axial to include a larger, more realistic 2-piece body.

The 1/10 scale Axial SCX10 III Jeep Gladiator JT 4WD RTR marks the next step forward in ready-to-run, scale off-road action. While continuing to incorporate key components that have made SCX10 vehicles successful, the SCX10 III chassis increases realism with details that include a replica V8 engine to house the front-mounted 540 brushed motor, mated to a realistic transmission housing and transfer case like a 1:1 vehicle. The Spektrum DX3 3-channel 2.4GHz DSMR transmitter and Firma 40A ESC/receiver are also ready to give you the advantages of innovative Spektrum Smart technology.

Out of the box, the SCX10 III Jeep Gladiator JT transmission offers a third-channel DIG function that lets you lock the rear axle from the transmitter for front wheel drive and a tighter turning radius. Though locked out from the factory, you can set up the vehicle to have a 40% faster second gear instead of DIG or, by adding another micro servo and using a radio with at least four channels (such as the 5-channel Spektrum DX5), have simultaneous access to both the DIG and two-speed functions.
The SCX10 III Jeep Gladiator JT uses new AR45 portal axles to improve performance by increasing the ground clearance and reducing torque twist. The motor is located at the front of the chassis for forward weight. The standard battery tray is positioned near the vehicles center for improved balance and accepts full-size LiPo or NiMH packs. There are also locations in the side pods for drivers who prefer smaller shorty LiPo packs. Inner fenders and floor sides hide internal components that would usually be visible from the side of the chassis.Spektrum Firma Smart 40A Brushed ESC w/ Built In DSMR Receiver
