Technical Performance
The AXIAL Clear Body Set represents professional-grade construction with attention to the specific requirements of 1/10 scale rock crawling. The polycarbonate bodyshell material combines lightweight properties essential for maintaining performance on challenging terrain with sufficient rigidity to resist deformation during aggressive driving. The 313mm wheelbase specification ensures this bodyshell maintains proper scale proportions and weight distribution when fitted to the SCX10 III platform, which is the industry benchmark for serious rock crawlers in the UK RC market. The inclusion of window masks demonstrates Axial's understanding that serious hobbyists want professional results without excessive preparation work—these masks save considerable time during the finishing process whilst ensuring crisp, clean edges around window areas. The decal sheet provides authentic details that complement both factory-accurate restorations and custom colour schemes, making this body set equally valuable whether you're recreating a specific full-size vehicle or developing your own unique design. At the scale of 1/10, every detail matters in creating a realistic and visually impressive rock crawler, and this bodyshell delivers the quality expected from Axial's heritage of excellence in off-road RC vehicle design and manufacturing.
