Axial teams with Summit Racing Equipment to bring the full-size Summit Jeep Gladiator to RC! This 1/24 scale, ready-to-run version takes the SCX24 micro crawler platform to a whole new level, with exclusive Summit Racing livery and Pro-Line accessories.
Both Axial Adventure and Summit Racing Equipment are passionate about overlanding. Now they’ve teamed to create a radio-control version of Summit Racing’s full-size “roamin’ Jeep Gladiator”! The SCX24 Summit Racing Jeep JT Gladiator is a ready-to-run micro rig based on Axial’s high-performance, high-value SCX24 platform - and it’s available only from Summit Racing or your nearby Horizon Hobby retailer.
If you’re familiar with the Axial SCX24 Jeep JT Gladiator, get ready for a whole new level of awesome with this special edition. Axial not only adds an exclusive Summit Racing paint scheme and badging to its detailed 1/24 scale Jeep body, but also includes new Pro-Line wheels, tires, and oil-filled shocks along with high-quality Spektrum electronics. It all combines to create a highly capable micro crawler that you’ll want to display as a showpiece between overlanding adventures.
The SCX24 Summit Racing Jeep JT Gladiator is destined to be a favorite with RC crawling fans who crave the freedom to make their own trails, whether outside or indoors. Any location can be the setting for an exciting expedition. Turn your desk at work or your den at home into a formidable obstacle course. Take your rig outside and maneuver your way through a trail filled with rocks, twigs, and holes.
Full-time 4WD and a 3-link front/4-link rear suspension help this micro rig muscle over big challenges. Worm gears on the axles increase the ground clearance. Realistic steel frame rails on the C-channel chassis stand up to hard knocks. The SCX24 Summit Racing Jeep JT Gladiator takes on almost any terrain with realistic looks and performance.
One of the best values in RC, the SCX24 Summit Racing Jeep JT Gladiator is a complete, ready-to-run package that's ideal for nearly any age and experience level. There's nothing else to buy. If it's your very first RC vehicle, the Spektrum SLT2 radio’s throttle limiting feature lets you learn control skills safely and with confidence. You can limit the rig's maximum speed to 50% or 75% until you're comfortable driving at full power.
Inside the box, you’ll also find a rechargeable Spektrum LiPo battery, easy-to-use USB charger, and four AA batteries for the transmitter. That's all you'll need to take your overland adventures anywhere. As your first RC crawler or the latest addition to your collection of Axial rigs, the Summit Racing SCX24 Jeep JT Gladiator has no equal!
Factory-finished with exclusive Summit Racing livery, the detailed scale body of the SCX24 Summit Racing Gladiator perfectly embodies the spirit of overland adventuring. To access the battery for quick replacement or recharging, simply remove one clip and tilt back the body.
Pro-Line oil-filled shocks with aluminum threaded bodies allow the suspension of the SCX24 Summit Racing Gladiator to articulate smoothly over rough terrain. Easily adjust the preload to fine tune your rig for handling needs.
Axial outfits the SCX24 Summit Racing Jeep JT Gladiator with Pro-Line Mickey Thompson Baja Pro X tires, for the grip to navigate extreme terrain and challenging trails. The tires are mounted on scale-looking, easy to use Pro-Line Impulse Bead-Loc wheels.
Metal worm gears in the SCX24 Summit Racing Jeep JT Gladiator’s front and rear differentials provide durability, high ground clearance, and strong drag brakes.
Like the 1/10 scale Axial SCX10 platform, the 1/24 scale chassis of the SCX24 Summit Racing Gladiator features rugged and sturdy steel C-channel frame rails with bracing to keep everything intact and aligned.
The front and rear axles consist of a two piece, molded composite solid axle design. For optimal handling, the suspension of the SCX24 Summit Racing Gladiator features a 3-link front and 4-link rear setup.
The 4-link design of the rear suspension geometry is optimized to reduce axle steer and torque twist.
Steel front and rear axles, front stub axles, and dogbones provide the strength and durability needed to keep going during tough climbs and over rough trails.
The included Dynamite 88T 180-size brushed electric motor provides the right amount of torque for making steep climbs. It's mated to a steel motor mount to keep flex to a minimum and help protect the gears.
