Key Features
- Genuine Axial OEM Component — This is the official body set manufactured by Axial, ensuring perfect fitment and compatibility with your SCX10 PRO chassis. Using genuine parts maintains the integrity of your RC vehicle and ensures it performs exactly as the engineering team intended.
- Polycarbonate Construction — The body is crafted from polycarbonate material, a tough and flexible plastic that resists impacts and vibrations whilst remaining lightweight. This material choice is standard in professional-grade RC rock crawlers because it balances durability with performance.
- Un-Painted Finish — The clear un-painted shell provides a blank canvas for your creativity. You can paint it any colour you desire, apply custom graphics, or use professional paint schemes to match your personal style or team colours. This flexibility is invaluable for customisation enthusiasts.
- Included Decal Sheet — A complete decal sheet is included in the package, giving you authentic factory-style graphics and branding options. These pre-cut decals save time and ensure professional-looking results without needing specialist equipment.
- Purpose-Built for SCX10 PRO — This body is specifically engineered for the Axial SCX10 Pro Scaler platform, ensuring perfect aerodynamics, weight distribution and aesthetic integration. Off-the-shelf compatibility means no modifications or fitment issues.
- 1:10 Scale — The 1:10 scale is the standard for serious rock crawling in the UK and globally. This size offers the perfect balance between portability, performance and the ability to navigate realistic terrain with genuine scale detail.
Technical Performance
The AXIAL Body Set represents professional-grade engineering for the serious rock crawler enthusiast. Built from polycarbonate — the material of choice for high-end RC bodies — this shell provides exceptional durability without adding unnecessary weight to your already-optimised SCX10 PRO chassis. The un-painted finish allows the translucent properties of the polycarbonate to show through, and once you apply your chosen paint colours, the body will showcase your customisation beautifully. The 1:10 scale is the industry standard for rock crawling, offering realistic proportions that look scale-appropriate on genuine terrain whilst maintaining the agility needed for competitive courses. The polycarbonate material has been tested extensively in demanding rock crawling conditions, where vehicles encounter sharp rocks, branches, and aggressive obstacles that would damage lesser materials. The engineering ensures that impacts and vibrations are absorbed effectively, protecting both the body shell and the components underneath. When paired with the SCX10 PRO's proven chassis platform — which features a robust 4WD drivetrain system — this body set completes a formidable rock crawling package that has earned respect in the UK RC community.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Is this body compatible with my SCX10 PRO chassis? — Yes, this body set is engineered specifically for the Axial SCX10 Pro Scaler 1:10 4WD Kit (model C-AXI03028). It will fit without any modifications and is the official Axial body for this platform. Always verify your chassis model before purchasing to ensure compatibility.
- Do I need to paint this body myself? — The body comes un-painted, which means you have the option to paint it any colour you wish. Many RC enthusiasts enjoy this creative aspect, applying custom colours, metallic finishes, or factory-style schemes using RC body paint. Alternatively, you can use the included decals on the clear polycarbonate for a transparent look. Professional RC body shops can also paint it for you if you prefer not to do it yourself.
- What is polycarbonate and why is it used for RC bodies? — Polycarbonate is a tough, impact-resistant plastic material that flexes rather than shatters when struck. This is critical for rock crawlers, which regularly encounter obstacles and rough terrain. Unlike rigid materials, polycarbonate absorbs impacts and returns to its original shape, protecting both the body and the chassis underneath. It is the industry standard for competition-grade RC bodies.
- Can I use this body on other SCX10 models? — This body set is specifically designed for the SCX10 PRO platform. Whilst it may physically fit some other SCX10 variants, Axial manufactures different body sets for different models, so we recommend using the body set matched to your specific chassis for optimal fitment and aesthetics.
- What do I need to complete this body set? — This is a body shell and decal set only. To use it, you will need a complete SCX10 PRO chassis, which includes the frame, drivetrain, electronics and all mechanical components. You will also need body post hardware (typically 90mm posts for 1:10 crawlers) to mount the body to your chassis, unless these are already included with your chassis kit.
- Is this suitable for beginners in rock crawling? — Rock crawling itself has a significant learning curve, but the SCX10 PRO is one of the most capable and user-friendly platforms for learning. This body set is the genuine component for that chassis, so if you're building an SCX10 PRO, this is the correct choice. As a replacement body, it's suitable for anyone needing to replace a damaged shell or wanting to customise their appearance.
- How durable is polycarbonate in extreme conditions? — Polycarbonate is exceptionally durable in the demanding environment of rock crawling. It withstands repeated impacts against rocks, logs, and obstacles without cracking or becoming brittle. UV exposure can eventually cause some clarity loss in translucent polycarbonate, but the body will remain functionally sound for many seasons of regular use.
- Do the decals come pre-cut and ready to apply? — Yes, the included decal sheet features pre-cut designs ready for application. Simply carefully peel them from the backing sheet and apply to your painted or clear polycarbonate body. Ensure the body surface is clean and dry for best adhesion.
