New, to me, XR10...help Hey guys! I'll start off by saying I'm new to RC crawling and pretty new to the RC world. I've had a couple Traxxas cars in the past but never got too into them. My boss had this Axial XR10 laying around doing nothing so I asked him about it and he said I could have it. He told me it is a BeetleJuice chassis? http://imageshack.com/a/img924/5554/6zXBWz.jpg It doesn't have a battery, radio or receiver. It does have two Tekin FX-R(I think) esc's and two motors. What are the capacitors(?) wired on top of the esc's for? I think the motors are both Holmes Hobbies Torquemaster Expert 540. One I can tell for sure, the other is in a full case it looks like. It also has a cc bec and a Hitec 7954sh steering servo. http://imageshack.com/a/img922/5967/SrPwwG.jpg http://imageshack.com/a/img923/6259/FcnEFh.jpg http://imageshack.com/a/img924/8744/7tW7H3.jpg http://imageshack.com/a/img922/5666/s70aps.jpg I need help picking out a transmitter/radio, receiver and battery for this thing that won't totally break the bank. I'm also probably need help getting it all set up :lmao: My first real project with it is going to be pulling everything apart and cleaning it up! Thanks for any and all help or advice! -Kaleb |
Re: New, to me, XR10...help Airtronics Mt4 is the rx TX you want. Rcbros has battery trays for this car. 3s 500mha is what you need for batteries. It's a very nice rig. 149 r/c worx /scalerfab Team Driver |

This a good battery? https://hobbyking.com/en_us/graphene...ah-3s-65c.html |
Re: New, to me, XR10...help I use team brood racing batteries for mine because they fit properly 149 r/c worx /scalerfab Team Driver |
Re: New, to me, XR10...help The futaba is nice but I prefer the airtronics because of the lever 149 r/c worx /scalerfab Team Driver |
Re: New, to me, XR10...help Like snaponboy said, Airtronics (Sanwa) MT-4 is my choice. Once you get used to using the dig lever it's so much easier to drive. Nice looking rig by the way. I also use fx-r ESC, I love the setup and easy to get set to my style of driving. Good luck |
Re: New, to me, XR10...help I love my futaba 4pl only radio I've owned. |
Re: New, to me, XR10...help Running with my Futaba 4pls and loving it. Haven't used the MT4 though. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
Re: New, to me, XR10...help I think the radio will come down to the old "Ford or Chevy", I think it is kind of personal preference. When I had my MOA I used a SkyFly GT3c hacked. As matter of fact I still have 2 I use for my scalers! Good luck and welcome to RCC."thumbsup" Ernie I also have a 4pl and love it! |
Re: New, to me, XR10...help This has been on the back burner for almost a month now. The guy I got this from happened to still have(and found) the tx and rx and not need them anymore. So I have those now. Its a Futaba T4PL and Futaba R2104GF. So now I just want to pull everything apart and clean it up. He also mentioned there may be some burned/stripped gears, so I need to figure out how to check that. I kind of like the look of titanium links. Is there any benefit to keeping the plastic ones(probably not accurate) that are on it over titanium? Where is a good place to get them? |
Re: New, to me, XR10...help The links available will depend on your chassis man. Eric from DluxFab can fabricate some pretty sick links though. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Re: New, to me, XR10...help I use the turnigy graphene 800mah 3s 45-90c fir my rigs , perfect fit |
Re: New, to me, XR10...help I figured out why the guy I got this from hadn't been using it... http://i.imgur.com/0ZRrxTF.jpg The bearing was next to the e-clip when I opened it up. http://i.imgur.com/ItxyGwB.jpg Is there anywhere to get the gears for this still? The 22t and 36t are both backordered on Axial's site, and RC4WD doesn't make their hardened set anymore. Am I SOL? |
Re: New, to me, XR10...help This is the front gearbox. Also, I found a couple of screws loose when taking it apart. One of the lower housing screws, and one on the motor plate. |
Re: New, to me, XR10...help The gears are available on ebay. You need the ax30551 Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A using Tapatalk |
Re: New, to me, XR10...help Don't use a bearing there use a brass bushings, locked up rc has them Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A using Tapatalk |
