Vanquish VS4-10 Phoenix Straight Axle RTR – Red

The VS4-10 Phoenix RTR is the first Ready-to-Run platform from Vanquish Products ? a trail-proven crawler that combines high-performance drivetrain components with thoughtful engineering. At its core lies the VFD Twin transmission featuring selectable overdrive and dig functionality*, paired with durable F10 Straight Axles. Machined ring and pinion gears, chromoly universal axle shafts, and steel 6-bolt spools ensure outstanding durability. Full ball bearings, 32P gearing, and stainless steel links deliver a smooth and highly reliable driving experience, even in demanding terrain.

The RTR includes a pre-painted Phoenix Lexan body with integrated VRD1 cage for a scale look and optimized clearance. Performance is further enhanced by 8mm bore S8E shocks with threaded bodies and bleeder caps, Red Compound Falken Wildpeak M/T tires, and Incision KMC KM233 beadlock wheels. The included 4-channel VT-1 digital radio allows full Dig and OD control* or can be used out-of-the-box with the factory 6% overdrive setup driven by the 35T VM-1 brushed motor and 3S-capable VE-1 ESC.

Chassis:

The VS4-10 chassis is built around high-strength steel C-channel frame rails with integrated crossmembers for maximum rigidity. Integrated rock sliders and bumpers offer protection and enhance clearance. Heavy-duty aluminum panhard mounts and dual-shear shock towers increase tuning options and durability.

Drivetrain:

The VFD Twin transmission provides selectable overdrive (from 6.5% to 46%) and optional 3-position Dig functionality in a compact, serviceable design. All gears are fully ball bearing supported and machined from sintered metal for maximum strength. The F10 Straight Axles feature high-clearance hypoid gear design and reinforced C-hubs. Machined ISD10 driveshafts with CV-style ends connect axles to the gearbox for quiet and smooth torque delivery.

Suspension:

Large-bore Incision S8E shocks use dual X-ring cartridges and threaded adjustment collars for precise tuning. Stainless steel suspension and steering links with Incision M4 rod ends ensure accurate geometry and long-lasting performance. The rear lower links are bent for added ground clearance.
