FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQ)

• Does this chassis include an ESC or Radio? No, this is a mechanical chassis assembly. You must provide your own ESC, transmitter, and receiver.
• Will this fit my Axial SCX10 II body? Yes, it is designed with the standard 313mm wheelbase used by the 90046 and most 1/10 crawler bodies.
• Are the drive shafts plastic or metal? This premium variant features heavy-duty metal drive shafts for maximum torque handling.
• Is the motor already installed? Yes, the 540 35T brushed motor is pre-installed in the gearbox.
• Can I use a 3S LiPo battery with this motor? Yes, most 35T brushed motors can handle 3S, provided your ESC is also 3S compatible.
• What is the wheelbase measurement? The wheelbase is exactly 313mm.
• Does it come with a body? No, the body shell is not included; you can mount any standard 1/10 scale crawler body.
• What is the "35T" in the motor description? "35T" refers to 35 turns. This is a high-torque configuration ideal for slow, precise rock crawling.
• Are the tires glued to the wheels? Generally, they are mounted but not glued, allowing you to add weights or foams as desired.
• What is the total width of the chassis? The total width, including tires, is 226mm.
• Where do I put the receiver? A dedicated plastic receiver box is included to protect your electronics from dust and light splashes.
• Are the shocks oil-filled? Yes, they are aluminum-bodied, oil-filled shocks designed for smooth damping.
• Is the frame made of plastic? No, the main structural girders are made of metal for high rigidity.
• What is the total length? The total length is 435mm.
• Does it include a steering servo? No, the steering servo is sold separately.
• Is this chassis waterproof? The mechanical parts are water-resistant, but you must ensure your ESC, receiver, and servo are waterproof if you plan to drive in wet conditions.
• What battery connector does the motor use? The motor wires are standard bullet connectors for easy connection to a brushed ESC.
• Can I mount a winch to the bumper? The plastic front bumper included has a standard mounting area that can accommodate many mini RC winches.
• What scale is this chassis? It is a standard 1/10 scale chassis.
• Is the gearbox metal or plastic? The internal gears are typically metal, housed in a durable composite casing for impact resistance.
