Time Capsule - AX10 Scorpion RTR Came across this...a buddy picked it up in a trade and gave it to me in trade for some paint work. It was "too old"...lol. Pretty amazing find. RTR version, never run, not a scratch. Complete with AM electronics and manual. RTR with bent rear links (The kit version was green with straight links and the Betty body) https://i.postimg.cc/nzm23bKq/20220417-111953-SM.jpg Not a scratch! Note the original U-joints. Axial switched to CVD's later once the SCX10 line got going. https://i.postimg.cc/yNtnhYRV/20220417-112012-SM.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/L5MT7Cvw/20220417-112039-SM.jpg AM radio and original Axial AE-1 ESC...no drag brake IIRC. https://i.postimg.cc/GtJQ1F52/20220417-112106-SM.jpg Comes with dogbones....turning is not much by today's standards. CVD's were a serious hop up. https://i.postimg.cc/65c0jhZb/20220417-201238-SM.jpg Ti coated shock shafts are nice, philips hardware all around. https://i.postimg.cc/rySgWTwk/20220417-201245-SM.jpg Not sure what I want to do with it. Still have plenty of V1 parts for my 3 old V1 based rigs, I could hop it up a bit. I'll most likely never run it. Right now it's sitting on display in the hobby room "thumbsup" |
Re: Time Capsule - AX10 Scorpion RTR Great find and in mint condition!:shock: You don't see them everyday! In fact I don't think I've ever seen one in person. I'd have to shelve that one if it was me.:) |
Re: Time Capsule - AX10 Scorpion RTR DANG! nice score. I would also just leave it that way and shelve it. its funny because that steering was leaps better then tlt steering. lol |
Re: Time Capsule - AX10 Scorpion RTR Futaba 3305, what a power house servo! Great find! I remember my kit version. |
Re: Time Capsule - AX10 Scorpion RTR It's like buying a used car, since I got all the paperwork I can kinda track the history. https://i.postimg.cc/cLBnhYxB/20220422-150519-SM.jpg Looks like the was a "RTC" version, or a prebuilt roller and everything was purchased piecemeal from Tower. OP bought all the Axial stuff separate, including the ESC and motor. Look at those prices...$249 for the roller was excellent. Amazing that the ESC was $9 more than a WP1080 is now, 12 years later. I've been shocked by some of the price increases I've seen lately, but honestly we've been holding the line for years. Some price increases were way overdue. https://i.postimg.cc/YS2ms9jK/20220422-150543-SM.jpg Looks like it was going to be converted over to a scale truck (Remember the AX10-SCX10 conversions?) but the Integy kit did not ship. So it stayed an AX10. I decided that this is a shelf queen for the time being... I may add some hop ups I have laying around, but I don't plan on running it. It's completely pristine, I hate to scratch it up. |
Re: Time Capsule - AX10 Scorpion RTR 2 Attachment(s) That's pretty sweet OS. Looks a lot how the used rig looked that I bought last year, except mine WAS well used.... :lmao: She now sits on AR60's and I am still contemplating the body. Attachment 400137 :lmao: Attachment 400138 |
Re: Time Capsule - AX10 Scorpion RTR looks like how mine used to look. i ditched the chassis and went to a Gate keeper and now a TCS stick chassis. Still running the stock dog bone axles with a rockstar 45 T motor and 3s lipos lol |

Re: Time Capsule - AX10 Scorpion RTR The orange one was ARTR, you still had to add the electronics. Back then the Novak Rooster was the motor/esc combo to get and running 2s Lipo was a big deal. |
Re: Time Capsule - AX10 Scorpion RTR Awe, the good old days of 2006, 2007, 2008,... |
Re: Time Capsule - AX10 Scorpion RTR An AX-10 was my first real Crawler back in 2008. We called them Shaftys back then, MIP drive shafts, Robinson Racing Trans pieces, and a Hurst?? dig unit. So many great memories from those days."thumbsup". |
