Upgrades and Hop-ups for the Axial RR10 Bomber

By: Tim Gluth

When I added Axial’s RR10 Bomber Rock Racer to my collection of radio-controlled vehicles, I didn’t expect it to become one of my favorite rigs to wheel. However, after my first full battery run, I was in love with this 1/10-scale off-roading beast.

Although the RR10 Bomber is an exceptional model in stock form, giving it custom flair and personalization is part of what makes this hobby so enjoyable. Below are a variety of options to customize not only the look but also the performance and handling aspects of this popular off-road warrior.

Appearance Upgrades

Body Panel Kits

The stock body of the Axial RR10 Bomber is made up of separate panels, making customization quite easy. If you’re looking for a fresh look, here are some body panel kits which can get you headed in the right direction.

Skins & Wraps

If you’d prefer to keep your stock body panels in place, but still yearn for something new, check out these skin and wrap options.

Wheels

Another easy way to get a customized look on your Axial RR10 Bomber is upgrading the wheels. Not only is this a visual enhancement, but it’s a way to add some weight to your rig for improved crawling balance.

Accessories

Based on the 1:1 Bomber Fabrication rock racing rig of Randy Slawson, the RR10 Bomber has scale visuals built-in, but there’s always room for more. Here are a handful of accessories and body mods for adding a splash of scale to your rock-crunching machine.

Performance Upgrades

Motor & ESC

While the 35T brushed motor which is included with the ready-to-run (RTR) RR10 Bomber features plenty of torque, it can be lacking in top-end speed. Thankfully, there are an array of motor options from brushed to brushless, to help get your Bomber up to speed.

Drivetrain & Axles

Having ample power and torque is great, but you need to make sure your drivetrain can handle the extra wear and tear. Here are a handful of upgrade pieces to make your RR10 as bulletproof as possible.

Suspension & Chassis

While new shocks and suspension pieces can be considered visual upgrades, they also serve a functional use in helping brace your rig during impacts.

Tires & Foams

While you’re adding power and performance to your RR10 Bomber, make sure you add rock-shredding grip to help you claw your way out of tough situations.
