Axial SCX10 III Coyote RC Rock Crawler Overview

You don’t have to spend big money to dominate the trails and the comps. The Axial SCX10 III Coyote 4X4 rock crawler is both affordable and equipped to conquer anything in its path. The Coyote’s built-in capabilities meet the needs of experienced crawling enthusiasts who put high performance above everything else. For newcomers to the trails, the ready-to-simplicity and budget-friendly price also make it an ideal first rig. A factory-finished Pro-Line Coyote body tops it off with plenty of eye-catching Axial realism.

But the Coyote is much more than an SCX10 III with a new look. Axial has taken its proven 1/10-scale platform to another level. All-new oil-filled shocks and shock towers add more adjustability. Overdrive gears in the front axle increase maneuvering and climbing ability for getting to and through the gates. New sliders have smooth undersides for better performance and body fit. Officially licensed Maxxis Trepador tires and KMC Grenade wheels, with dual stage open cell foam inserts, add to the rig’s realistic looks and high-performance crawling capabilities. And a new battery mount lets you position the battery in front of the transmission, improving weight distribution and balance.

Axial also incorporates a clipless mounting system for the Pro-Line Coyote body, enhancing the rig’s looks by eliminating visible body clips. The body is hinged at the rear and removes completely for effortless chassis access. There are no clips to fuss with and lose. For the best performance on the trails, the body is pinched in the front, dovetailed, and bobbed in the rear, and only as wide as necessary. It slips through narrow obstacles and allows ample tire clearance and suspension articulation.

These updates join proven features that have made the Axial SCX10 III a favorite on the trails. Its one-piece steel C-channel chassis reduces frame flexing and increases suspension precision. With all-metal internal gears and a full set of ball bearings, the LCXU 4-wheel drive transmission easily handles rough off-road surfaces. AR45P portal axles increase the ground clearance at the differential for gliding over uneven terrain.

Adding to the value of the Axial SCX10 III Coyote, the ready-to-run package comes with a 2-channel Spektrum SLT2 radio designed to help all drivers succeed on the trails. If this is your first RC vehicle, the radio’s throttle limiting feature lets you learn control skills safely and with confidence. With the flip of a switch, you can limit maximum speed to 50% or 75% until you’re comfortable driving at full power. Four AA transmitter batteries are included.

The Axial SCX10 III Coyote is proof that performance and quality can be budget-friendly. It has the features and capabilities you need to go from the box to the comp to the podium — saving money all the way.
