The BRX01 DESIGN CONCEPT
Over the years R/C crawlers have become more realistic in terms of performance and scale features. But to date, the crawler hobby industry hasn´t seen a high performance "daily driver" – what we industry junkies describe as a 1:1 vehicle that can be purchased from the dealership, a truck without a suspension lift and big tires.
So we set out to produce this truck - a performance based "daily driver" packed with innovations; fine enough to be a shelf queen and badass enough to be a beast on the trails!
HOW IS THE BRX01 DIFFERENT?
Starting with a clean sheet of paper the 1/10 BRX01 was developed as a performance based R/C crawler chassis with a scale "stock truck" appearance. It combines many performance and scale features into a single ground breaking vehicle.
What makes the BRX01 special is that many of the features on the chassis come from the imaginations of fellow R/C hobbyists. By listening to their ideas and feedback, we are able to include many new and exciting features into the BRX01.

WHAT´S A BOLT-ON KIT?
A Bolt-On Kit means parts of the chassis is pre-assembled and requires minor assembly for completion. The factory assembled parts offer convenience for builders eager to get started.
The BRX01 kit includes factory pre-built axles, transmission, transfer case and shocks. Shocks require oil to be filled (included).
