Meet the Ascent-18 International Scout II Rock Crawler, a 1/18-scale ready-to-run RC crawler built for serious off-road adventures. It sports a fully licensed International Scout II body and a rugged, bearing-supported drivetrain designed to handle rough terrain with confidence. Portal axles with metal portal gears, machined aluminum spools, and an aluminum chassis with aluminum-capped oil-filled shocks deliver solid ground clearance and stable, controlled handling on rocks and trails.
Under the hood it uses a 60T 180-size motor paired to precise gearing for strong low-end crawl power and enough wheel speed to power through obstacles. A 750mAh LiPo battery, a compact 2.4GHz radio with an integrated receiver/ESC, and pre-installed LED headlights and tail lights keep the rig ready to run. The drivetrain features ball bearings throughout, with portal axles, machined aluminum spools, metal ring and pinion gears, and 7mm wheel hexes for durability and smooth performance. Licensed Interco Irok Super Swamper tires provide authentic grip, while a front tilt body mounting system with a quarter-turn lock makes electronics access quick. For those who want to tailor weight, strength, or handling, brass and aluminum upgrade parts are available, along with a broad range of hop-up components to grow with evolving skills.
