Key Features
- Two White Fuel Canisters — The set includes two separate fuel canister accessories that can be mounted on compatible 1/10 scale RC crawlers to create authentic scale detail and improve the overall visual realism of your model. This allows you to outfit your vehicle with protective gear and fuel storage accessories just like a real off-road vehicle would have.
- Included 3x8mm Fastening Screw — A single 3x8mm FCS (fastening screw) is included in the pack, providing the hardware needed to securely mount the fuel canisters to your RC model. This ensures the canisters stay in place during driving and won't rattle loose or become damaged.
- Scale Accuracy for 1/10 Models — These canisters are specifically designed and proportioned for 1/10 scale RC crawlers, meaning they look correctly sized and realistic on your model rather than appearing oversized or undersized. This attention to scale is what separates quality RC accessories from generic alternatives.
- Wide Compatibility — These fuel canisters are designed to work with a comprehensive range of Traxxas TRX-4 models, including the K10 Cheyenne High Trail Edition in Red, Blue, Black, and Metallic Copper finishes, the Ford F-150 Ranger XLT in Brown, Blue, and Black, the K5 Blazer in both Blue and Red, the 1979 Chevy Blazer in Red and Black, the Nissan Pathfinder SE-V6 in Red and Silver, the 2021 Ford Bronco in Red, White, Orange, and Black, and the TRX-4 Defender in Red, Silver, Green, and Sand finishes, plus unassembled chassis kits.
- Professional Detail Enhancement — Whether you're building a scale replica or upgrading an existing crawler, these canisters add professional-looking detail that significantly improves the authenticity and visual appeal of your model, making the difference between a basic RC car and a convincingly detailed scale vehicle.
- Genuine Traxxas Component — As an official Traxxas accessory, these fuel canisters are manufactured to Traxxas's quality standards and designed with the same engineering precision that goes into all Traxxas products, ensuring durability and perfect fitment on compatible models.
Technical Performance
The Traxxas Fuel Canisters represent the kind of quality scale detailing that separates showcase-worthy RC crawlers from standard bashers. These are tools, extinguishers, and can-type accessories classified specifically as crawler accessories and scale accessories, designed with the needs of 1/10 scale RC enthusiasts in mind. The white colour provides a clean, professional look that contrasts nicely with most body colours and paint schemes, making the canisters visible and realistic on your finished model. The engineering behind these canisters includes proper scale proportions that match authentic off-road vehicle fuel storage systems, ensuring that when mounted on your TRX-4 or compatible crawler, they enhance rather than detract from the overall aesthetic. The included 3x8mm fastening screw is precision-sized for secure attachment without over-tightening or damaging the canister plastic, and the white material is durable enough to withstand the vibrations and impacts typical of RC crawler use. For enthusiasts building detailed scale models or preparing vehicles for display, trail running, or competition, these fuel canisters represent an essential component of the authentic detailing package.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Which RC models are these Traxxas fuel canisters compatible with? — These fuel canisters are compatible with a wide range of Traxxas TRX-4 crawlers, including the Chevrolet K10 Cheyenne High Trail Edition (available in Red, Blue, Black, and Metallic Copper), Ford F-150 Ranger XLT High Trail Edition (Brown, Blue, Black), 1972 Chevrolet K5 Blazer High Trail Edition (Blue, Red), 1979 Chevy Blazer 4x4 with clipless body (Red, Black), Nissan Pathfinder SE-V6 3S 4x4 RTR (Red, Silver), 2021 Ford Bronco (Red, White, Orange, Black), TRX-4 Unassembled Chassis Kit, and TRX-4 Defender 4WD RTR (Red, Silver, Green, Sand). If you own any of these models or are considering one, these accessories will fit perfectly.
- How do I install the fuel canisters on my RC crawler? — Installation is straightforward — the fuel canisters are mounted using the included 3x8mm fastening screw. Most TRX-4 models have pre-drilled mounting points specifically designed for scale accessories like these canisters. Simply align the canister with the mounting hole, insert the screw, and tighten firmly but carefully to avoid cracking the plastic. Refer to your specific model's instruction manual for exact mounting locations.
- Are these fuel canisters durable for regular use? — Yes, these are genuine Traxxas components manufactured to Traxxas quality standards. The plastic used in these canisters is durable enough to withstand the normal vibrations and impacts of RC crawler use. However, they are scale detail accessories rather than structural components, so they're not designed to take direct impacts. Treat them as you would any scale detail accessory, and they'll provide years of realistic appearance for your model.
- Why should I add fuel canisters to my RC crawler? — Fuel canisters dramatically improve the scale realism and authenticity of your RC crawler, particularly if you're building a detailed trail truck or display model. They add an extra dimension of detail that transforms a basic RC vehicle into a convincingly detailed scale replica. For competitive crawlers or models destined for photography and social media, these canisters help create that professional, fully-detailed appearance that stands out.
- What colour options are available? — These fuel canisters come in white, which is a neutral and versatile colour that works well with most body colours and paint schemes. The white finish provides good contrast and visibility on your model while maintaining authentic scale appearance.
- Can these be used on other RC models besides Traxxas? — These canisters are specifically designed for Traxxas TRX-4 and compatible 1/10 scale models. While the physical dimensions and the 3x8mm screw may work with some other 1/10 scale crawlers, we recommend confirming compatibility with your specific model's mounting points before purchase. They are optimised for Traxxas vehicles.
