Axial SMT10 Grave Digger 1/10 4wd RTR Monster Truck

The iconic paint scheme of the classic Grave Digger® 1950s-style panel van — a ghoulish blend of black, purple and green — has thrilled fans of the full-scale Monster Jam® legend for many years. Axial® Racing obtained the license from Feld Motorsports to offer the Grave Digger® for the first time as a true-to-scale, 4-wheel drive, straight-axle RC monster truck. The RC Grave Digger® rides on the Axial® SMT10™ tube frame chassis, which was developed for maximum bashing strength and an extremely detailed appearance. High-quality electronics also contribute to the Grave Digger® model’s never-say-die performance. Available ready-to-run, the vehicle comes with a 2.4GHz Spektrum™ radio system and powerful Dynamite® motor and ESC. Together with incomparable Axial® engineering, they make the 1/10 scale SMT10™ Grave Digger® the perfect bashing monster truck for everyone from scale RC enthusiasts to full-size monster truck fans. On grass, gravel, pavement and asphalt tracks, it’s ready to make your competition scream!


Monster Jam® is the world’s largest and most famous monster truck tour, where world-class drivers compete in racing and freestyle events before capacity crowds. One of its most celebrated attractions is Grave Digger®, which thrills monster truck fans with jaw-dropping, gravity-defying feats. For its part, Axial® Racing has become synonymous with RC crawler vehicles that inspire endless adventure and creative freedom. Put them together and you have a true-to-scale, 4-wheel drive, straight-axle Monster Jam® RC truck that’s the perfect basher for everyone from scale RC enthusiasts to full-size monster truck fans — the Axial® SMT10™ Grave Digger® 1/10 4WD Monster Jam® Truck RTR.

Licensed from Feld Motor Sports, Inc., the genuine Grave Digger® ‘50s-era panel van body is as ghoulishly real as it gets, from the trademark graveyard paint scheme and chrome Zoomie headers to the driver figure with glow-in-the-dark helmet. BKT Monster Jam® style tires with foam inserts add more scale realism along with impressive grip and handling on a wide range of terrain.

Everything going on beneath the scale body is just as exciting. Axial® designers went all out when creating the chassis and roll cage for the SMT10™ Grave Digger® monster truck. Very similar to those of full-size Monster Jam® trucks, the SMT10™ tube frame chassis was developed for maximum strength and has an extremely realistic appearance. There are a variety of shock mounting points for suspension tuning options, with additional mounting points on the cage and at the axle for moving the shocks to a more scale, vertical position if desired. Mated to the proven Axial® AR60™ axle, the 4-link suspension soaks up any obstacles in its path.

The Axial® SMT10™ Grave Digger® 1/10 4WD Monster Jam® Truck comes factory-built and ready-to-run with updated, improved electronics and radio gear. The Dynamite® 550-size motor provides higher torque and top speed for pulling off radical monster truck moves. It’s matched with a LiPo- and NiMH-compatible Dynamite® 60A ESC that features forward/brake/reverse, forward/brake and crawler drive modes.

The included FHSS 2.4GHz radio gear is all high-quality Spektrum™ brand equipment. The STX2® 2-channel transmitter and SRX200 receiver provide fast response and outstanding range. Enjoy precise, interference-free control while striking terror in your bashing competition!

BKT MONSTER JAM TIRES:
BKT is the official and exclusive tire manufacturer of Monster Jam® and its fleet of monster trucks.

EASY-ACCESS BATTERY TRAY:
The battery tray is easy to access from the rear of the vehicle. To install your battery, remove one pin, swing out the tray door and slide in the battery pack. Four screws adjust the height of the tray, allowing room for most standard 2S batteries.
