Axial XR10 crawler upgrades

Axial XR10 crawler upgrades

Axial Racing have released a number of upgrades for their XR10 crawler. Starting with this battery plate, it has been machined from high-grade carbon fibre, is height adjustable and includes all the hardware allowing the battery to be positioned as low as possible. There is also a new electronics plate, which again has been machined from high-grade 3mm carbon fibre. The new plate gives a lightweight mounting platform for your electronics and is 65% lighter than the factory electronics tray. Axial have released the Stage 3 aluminium Hi-Clearance links kit, which is a replacement for the upper and lower links from the XR10. This kit provides additional clearance and performance for the XR10 chassis. For additional tuning options there is a new range of shock springs in black (1.04lbs/in), purple (1.43lbs/in) and orange (1.75lbs/in). Finally for the RTR AX10 and SCX10 there is this steering upgrade kit that replaces the stock plastic steering links increasing steering strength and precision.
