My New Axial SXC10 Scale Truck - 02.10.2009, 05:38 PM

Just finished building last week and have some pics. Great truck, fun build. Based off the AX10 but with 1.9 proline tires, axial 1.9 beadlocks, scale ladder frame c-channel chassis and so on. This is built to be waterproof with an XL-5 ESC and waterproof hitec servo. At some point I plan on a different body, aluminum shocks, dig, and a few other things. I will let the pics say the rest.....

Quick note though, it has the two battery packs for weight until I get my wheel weights and the body is my first try at painting something detailed.

Looks good Tex, not really scale, but still good. I like the chassis design, but I would prefer a hard plastic body on it. Something like the new bright jk body would fit well, with the axle width at least.

The body came with it, so I painted it and slapped it on. I don't anticipate it will stay, just haven't decided what I want on it. No jeeps though, too many of those and not really my thing. I may would use a yota body, but too many still. I may consider the Tundra body from the newer hi-lift kit...

The really nice thing about the kit is that axial gives you a lot of extra parts to use for all different setups, so mounting options and body types are somewhat limitless.

Just undecided, but the truck is a blast to drive none the less.

Thanks for the compliments!
