Not just an unassembled version of the RTR, the SCX10 III Base Camp Builder's Kit offers many customizing opportunities plus a dig transmission, standard axles, and other additions.
It's an easy build on the bench and a solid performer on the trails.
The SCX10 has long been the RC platform of choice for scale trail enthusiasts. In 2022 Axial introduced the SCX10 III Base Camp 4WD RTR and gave cost-conscious crawling fans the chance to enjoy its performance and realism. Now comes a new way to experience SCX10-based adventure — the SCX10 III Base Camp Builder's Kit.
Kit building is a hobby perfectly suited for Axial enthusiasts, many of whom are passionate about tinkering with and modifying their rigs. There's no better starting point for your adventure build than the Base Camp Kit. It's a classic crawling platform that carries a wealth of proven Axial quality and innovation.
Base Camp Kit advantages go well beyond the satisfaction of putting together your own rig. The assembly process makes you an expert on its engineering and a pro at maintenance and repairs. You're also able to express your individuality by choosing a body style you like and finishing it however you wish. By adding your personal preference in tires, wheels, and electronics, you create a custom crawler inside and out. Compared to buying an RTR rig that comes fully equipped, the kit ensures you won't pay for anything that you may not use.
Better still, the Base Camp Kit isn't just an unassembled version of the Axial RTR rig. It's an improved Base Camp. The transmission can be externally locked in standard 4WD, but it also has an optional, servo-actuated dig feature. Robust 6mm stainless steel links are included, as well as Standard AR45 straight axles. If you prefer portal axles, the LCXU transmission makes it easy to switch.
The Axial SCX10 III Base Camp Builder's Kit give you the perfect foundation for your adventuring — the proven SCX10 III steel C-channel chassis, an optimized suspension and steering, and a trail-tough drivetrain. When you add your choice of body, tires, wheels, and electronics, it's a rig you can truly call all your own.

The Base Camp Kit's strong, realistic SCX10 III steel C-channel chassis reduces frame flexing and increases the precision of suspension movement. It also adjusts to accommodate a wide variety of body styles (optional links req.).
The kit's LCXU transmission can be externally locked in standard 4WD, but also has an optional, servo-actuated dig feature for improved turning and control.
In addition to all-metal internal gears for strength and durability, the LCXU transmission also features a full set of ball bearings for a smooth, efficient ride.
The kit includes Standard AR45 straight axles that mirror what's found under most full-size off-road vehicles. The LCXU transmission design also makes it easy to switch from standard axles to portals if desired.
The suspension features 6mm stainless steel links and all-metal pivot balls for off-road durability. The tunable oil-filled shocks have aluminum threaded bodies and a single coilover spring.
All pivot points are on stainless steel balls that provide durable, long-lasting performance.
Normally considered an upgrade, the metal panhard mount is included in the SCX10 III Base Camp Builder's Kit as a standard part.
