With a capable suspension and powerful V8 engine, the Lexus GX has become a popular choice for off-roading and overlanding. No surprise, then, that RC crawling enthusiasts are eager to hit the trails with their own version of this SUV-turned-adventure machine — or that Axial is ready to answer the call with the SCX24 Lexus GX 470 RTR.
The GX 470 brings even more variety to the SCX24 line of crawlers, and Axial made no compromises in order to reproduce it in 1/24 scale. RC crawling fans of all experience levels will appreciate its features, performance, and realistic detail. Fully equipped, fully assembled, and affordably priced, the GX 470 is an easy addition to any 1/24 scale RC collection.
In RC just as in full scale, the appeal of overlanding has less to do with the destination than the experiences you have while getting there. Indoors or out, the GX 470 loves adventure. If your journey takes you through a little mud or up a rocky trail, this rig is ready for the challenge.
After all, no Axial crawler is built just for show. The GX 470 features steel C-channel frame rails, steel front and rear axles, and steel dogbones for the strength to tackle tough climbs and rough trails. Powered by an 88-turn brushed motor, the full-time 4-wheel drivetrain spins on sealed cartridge bearings and uses a worm screw and worm gear setup in the differentials to boost ground clearance. The 4-link rear suspension reduces axle steer and torque twist, and oil-filled shocks provide a smooth, plush ride. It packs big-time performance into a 1/24 scale package.
With its officially licensed, extra-durable ABS hard body, the GX 470 matches that performance with an exceptional amount of scale realism. The body comes factory-finished in white, silver, or black, and is topped off with scale accessories and working lights. Officially licensed Black Rhino Raid wheels and Nitto Trail Grappler M/T tires complete the picture while boosting the rig’s capability to conquer a wide range of surfaces.
High-quality accessories round out this 100% ready-to-run package. Adjustments on the Spektrum SLT2 2.4GHz transmitter let you fine-tune steering control to suit your personal preferences. On a full charge, the Spektrum 350mAh LiPo battery provides 30+ minutes of uninterrupted run time. Recharging is quick and convenient using the Spektrum USB-C LiPo charger. Axial even includes the four AA batteries you’ll need for the transmitter.
Ready to go overland? You are with the Axial SCX24 Lexus GX 470 RTR. Get yours, and experience the adventure that waits past where the paved roads end.
