Axial AXP8 Gilamon 4X4 RC Trail Buggy Overview

The wait is over. Axial takes RC rock crawling performance to the next level with the AXP8 Gilamon 2.2 RTR. It is the most innovative and maneuverable rig ever introduced.
As a true rock crawler, the Gilamon is not just made for overlanding or simple "Sunday drives". With its 2.2-inch wheelset and new AXP8 platform, this RC crawler is unbeatable on the most challenging trails and obstacles. Since it comes to you ready-to-run, you don't need any previous experience to be successful. But if you've already spent a lot of time on the trails, you'll be amazed at what this crawler can now do.
What's so revolutionary about the AXP8? Let's start with its heavy-duty AF16P portal axles for high ground clearance front and rear. In addition, the ASD (Axial Selectable Drive) on the rear axle deserves special mention. A more advanced and powerful driveline version with cutting brakes. While normal cutting brakes are only as powerful as the brakes themselves, ASD physically locks a wheel completely. Even better than normal cutting brakes. And unlike a front-dig system, which locks the entire axle, ASD can lock each rear wheel individually. This gives you an even tighter turning radius and significantly improved maneuverability.
The AF16P front axle and the advanced new AT6 transmission are also designed for optional ASD setups, giving you unprecedented vehicle control. When ASD is assigned to a 3-position switch on your transmitter, you can activate locked or constant four-wheel drive functions. With a 5-position switch, you can configure the ASD system to drive, freewheel or locked. No RC crawler has offered this level of sophistication before. Nothing can stand in your way. The AT6 transmission is also equipped with a 30% reduction on the rear axle, which drastically improves climbing and increases maneuverability.
The extreme articulation of the 4-link suspension and the additional spacing of the realistic new IS10 shocks with internal suspension further enhance the vehicle's trail performance. An oversized Axial Boulder 21-Turn 550 high-torque brushed motor transmits power through durable, heavy-duty WB12 driveshafts to officially licensed Raceline Avenger wheels with 5.5-inch Mickey Thompson Baja Boss M/T tires. The whole thing is encased in a durable composite cage that provides protection and gives the car a trail buggy look that's literally looking for the next challenge.
The included Spektrum DX3 radio and 70A ESC give you the telemetry benefits of exclusive Smart technology. In addition, other high-quality, factory-installed Spektrum on-board electronics include an SR515 5-channel DSMR receiver, an S682 steering servo with metal gears and an SX117AX microservo with metal gears for ASD function. Just use the recommended battery and charger of your choice and you're ready to conquer any obstacle.

ASD (AXIAL SELECTABLE DRIVE)
Expand your obstacle-clearing strategies with the Gilamon trail buggy's ASD (Axial Selectable Drive) system. It is an advanced and high performance drivetrain design with cutting brakes. While brakes can only be as powerful as each individual brake, ASD physically locks a wheel completely. Since the feature is set up by default, you can lock each rear wheel separately for a smaller turning radius. The front axle and gearbox are also suitable for an optional ASD addition at the front.

TRAIL BUGGY DESIGN
The Gilamon features a durable, realistically detailed composite cage with protective Lexan body panels for an adventure-ready trail buggy look. The rig comes factory-finished and is available in two color schemes.

AT6 TRANSMISSION
Axial emphasizes durability and versatility with its all-new AT6 transmission. The transmission features a 30 percent reduction on the rear axle, increasing maneuverability and climbing capabilities. It is also designed to accommodate an additional ASD (Axial Selectable Drive) configuration for an unprecedented level of vehicle control.

AF16P PORTAL AXLES
The robust AF16P portal axles with high ground clearance are among the innovations that ensure success on demanding routes through improved maneuverability. The rear axle is equipped with the ASD (Axial Selectable Drive) function and the front axle is ASD-compatible.

WATERPROOF SPECTRUM ELECTRONICS
The high-quality, waterproof Spektrum on-board electronics are ideal for crawling in all conditions. The Spektrum S682 metal-geared steering servo features industry-standard 25T gearing and a rugged aluminum servo horn. A Spektrum SX108 micro servo with metal gears is included for the ASD (Axial Selectable Drive) system.

AXIAL BOULDER 550 BRUSH MOTOR
A powerful machine like the Gilamon needs a powerful motor. The oversized, factory-installed Axial Boulder 550 is longer than a typical 540 motor and offers more torque and increased durability. The 21-turn design provides the perfect blend of power and speed.

SPEKTRUM SMART TECHNOLOGY
The included Spektrum DX3 Smart transmitter, SR515 5-channel receiver and Firma 70A Smart ESC provide the Smart telemetry advantage. Install a Spektrum Smart LiPo battery and you can see the capacity of the drive battery on the transmitter's voltage display.

IS10 SHOCK ABSORBER WITH INTERNAL SPRING
The Gilamon features all-new IS10 shocks with aluminum housings and internal springs that increase ground clearance and provide a prototypical look. Its highly flexible 4-link suspension geometry reduces torque twist and provides smooth articulation without the bump steer found in 3-link designs.

LED-ROCK-LIGHTS
When crawling in the dark, pre-installed LED rock lights illuminate each wheel. The bright LEDs are attached to the cage in robust, adjustable housings. Different colors ensure clear vehicle identification and crawling in style.

WB12 DRIVE SHAFTS
Rugged WB12 front and rear driveshafts provide the durability needed to withstand the stress of crawling through rocks and rough terrain.

OFFICIALLY LICENSED MICKEY THOMPSON TIRES
The Gilamon rides on 5.5-inch officially licensed Mickey Thompson Baja Boss M/T 2.2 tires. They look authentic and provide the aggressive traction needed to overcome any obstacle.

OFFICIALLY LICENSED RACELINE AVENGER 2.2 WHEELS
The classic 8-spoke design of these officially licensed Raceline Avenger 2.2 rims adds to the authentic trail buggy look of the Gilamon rig.
