Description
The Axial AXP8 Gilamon 2.2 4×4 RTR Trail Buggy is the ultimate off-road rock crawler, built for extreme terrain and unmatched maneuverability. Featuring Axial Selectable Drive (ASD), an advanced drivetrain system that provides individual rear-wheel locking, this buggy offers a tighter turning radius and superior control over challenging obstacles. The AXP8 platform, combined with high-clearance AF16P portal axles and a 30% underdrive transmission, delivers an aggressive climbing advantage and precise handling.
Designed for enthusiasts of all levels, this ready-to-run (RTR) buggy includes a Spektrum DX3 Smart radio system, high-torque Axial Boulder 550 motor, and fully waterproof electronics. The realistic composite cage, internal spring IS10 shocks, and massive Mickey Thompson Baja Boss M/T 2.2 tires provide both durability and scale realism. Whether tackling hills, trails, ledges, or deep rock formations, the AXP8 Gilamon is built to dominate any terrain.
