Axial AXP8 Gilamon 4X4 RC Trail Buggy Overview

The wait is over. With the AXP8 Gilamon 2.2 RTR, Axial introduces the next level in RC rock crawling performance. It’s the most innovative and maneuverable rig you’ve ever seen.

A true rock crawler, the Gilamon isn’t made for overlanding or easy "Sunday" drives. With its 2.2-inch wheel setup and new AXP8 platform, this RC crawler has no match on the most challenging trails and obstacles. Because it’s ready-to-run, you don’t need experience to succeed. But if you have spent a lot of time on the trails, you’ll be blown away by what you can do now that was impossible before.

What’s so revolutionary about the AXP8? Let’s start with its heavy-duty, high-clearance, front and rear AF16P portal axles - and especially the rear-axle ASD (Axial Selectable Drive), a more advanced and highly capable drivetrain version of cutting brakes. While cutting brakes are only as strong as the brakes themselves, ASD physically and completely locks a wheel. It’s better than cutting brakes. And unlike front dig, which locks the entyre axle, ASD can lock either of the rear wheels individually. That gives you an even tighter turning radius and greatly improved maneuvering capabilities.

The AF16P front axle and advanced new AT6 transmission are also designed to accept optional ASD setups, giving you an unprecedented amount of vehicle control. With ASD assigned to a 3-position switch on your transmitter, you can activate locking or constant 4WD functions. Using a 5-position switch, you’ll be able to configure the ASD system to drive, to free wheel, or to lock (option parts and programable Tx required).

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% underdrive to the rear axle that dramatically improves climbing and increases maneuverability.

Further improving the rig’s trail performance are the extreme articulation of its 4-link suspension and the additional clearance of its realistic, new IS10 internal spring shocks. An oversized, high torque Axial Boulder 550 21-turn brushed motor sends power through durable, heavy-duty WB12 driveshafts to officially licensed Raceline Avenger wheels and 5.5-inch tall Mickey Thompson Baja Boss M/T tyres. Surrounding it all is a durable composite cage that offers protection and challenge-ready trail buggy looks.

The included Spektrum DX3 radio and Firma 70A ESC give you the telemetry benefits of exclusive Smart technology. Other high-quality, factory-installed Spektrum on-board electronics include a SR515 5-channel DSMR receiver, S682 metal gear steering servo, and SX117AX metal gear micro servo for the ASD function. Just add your choice of recommended battery and charger - then you’re ready to take on any obstacle that lies ahead.

Get ready to go where no crawler has gone before with the Axial AXP8 Gilamon 2.2 RTR. It’s the king of the hill, the trail, the canyon, the ledge, and everything else off-road!

What makes the Axial C-AXI-1207T1 1/8 RTR rock crawler so maneuverable?

The standout feature of the Axial C-AXI-1207T1 Gilamon 2.2 brushed buggy is its ASD drivetrain system. Unlike traditional cutting brakes, ASD physically locks either rear wheel independently, allowing for sharper turns and enhanced obstacle control. This selective locking mechanism is mapped to a 3-position switch on the Spektrum DX3 transmitter, giving users the ability to toggle between locked, freewheel, and constant 4WD modes. For advanced users, a 5-position switch unlocks further configurability. This level of control transforms the Axial Gilamon C-AXI-1207T1 with ASD selectable drive into a precision crawler capable of navigating terrain that would challenge even the most experienced drivers.

How does the Axial 1/8 trail buggy with waterproof Spektrum electronics perform in harsh conditions?

Trail conditions are unpredictable, which is why the Axial 1/8 trail buggy with waterproof Spektrum electronics is equipped with a full suite of Smart-enabled components. The Spektrum DX3 transmitter, SR515 5-channel receiver, and Firma 70A Smart ESC work together to deliver real-time telemetry, including battery voltage monitoring when paired with a Smart LiPo battery. This system ensures that users can track performance and make informed decisions during extended trail sessions. All electronics are waterproof, allowing the Axial AXP8 Gilamon C-AXI-1207T1 ready to run RC rock crawler for sale to operate confidently in wet, muddy, or snowy conditions without compromising reliability.

Axial green 1/8 4WD RC buggy with portal axles and LED lights – built for visibility and clearance

Visibility and clearance are critical when crawling over rocks and through narrow gaps. The Axial green 1/8 4WD RC buggy with portal axles and LED lights features AF16P portal axles front and rear, delivering increased ground clearance and reduced torque twist. These axles are built for durability and come pre-installed with ASD functionality on the rear. LED rock lights are mounted to the composite cage and illuminate each wheel with multi-colour brightness, enhancing visibility during night runs and adding scale realism. The combination of portal axles and LED lighting makes the Axial trail buggy with brushed motor and high ground clearance suspension a standout performer in low-light and technical environments.

Axial Gilamon C-AXI-1207T1 with ASD selectable drive – how does the suspension enhance control?

The suspension system on the Axial Gilamon C-AXI-1207T1 with ASD selectable drive is designed for maximum articulation and stability. The 4-link geometry reduces torque twist and eliminates bump steer, which is common in 3-link designs. Paired with IS10 internal spring shocks housed in aluminium bodies, the system delivers smooth damping and increased clearance. These shocks are engineered for scale realism and trail performance, allowing the buggy to flex over obstacles while maintaining traction. The suspension setup ensures that the Axial 4-link suspension RC buggy remains composed and responsive across uneven terrain, giving drivers confidence in every maneuver.

Axial trail buggy with brushed motor and high ground clearance suspension – built for torque

Powering the Axial trail buggy with brushed motor and high ground clearance suspension is the oversized Axial Boulder 550 21-turn brushed motor. Longer than standard 540 motors, this unit delivers increased torque and durability, making it ideal for steep climbs and rugged trails. The motor sends power through WB12 heavy-duty driveshafts to Raceline Avenger 2.2 wheels wrapped in Mickey Thompson Baja Boss M/T tyres. These officially licensed components provide aggressive traction and scale authenticity. The drivetrain is supported by a 14T pinion and 34T spur gear, optimised for crawling performance. The gear pitch is set at 32P, ensuring strength and reliability under load.
