Technical Performance

The RC4WD MAXTRAX recovery boards represent a masterclass in scale accessory design and manufacturing quality. Constructed from durable moulded plastic, these boards weigh just 12 grams each, ensuring they contribute minimal additional weight to your 1/10 scale rig whilst maintaining the structural integrity needed for repeated recovery play and handling. The boards measure 115mm in length, 32mm in width, and 7mm in height, delivering authentic proportions that look convincing when deployed on your crawler. The black colour option provides a classic, professional appearance that complements most 1/10 scale crawler builds, though the full range of colour options ensures you can perfectly match your aesthetic preferences. The moulded plastic construction provides excellent durability whilst remaining lightweight, a critical balance in scale RC applications where every gram matters but reliability is paramount. The crisp scale detail is evident throughout, from the textured surface patterns that mirror the real product to the overall proportions that reflect genuine MAXTRAX recovery equipment. These boards stack efficiently, allowing dual boards to be stored compactly on your vehicle or in your RC bag without adding bulk or creating storage challenges. The inclusion of the authentic MAXTRAX decal sheet means you can add factory-correct branding and markings, further enhancing the visual authenticity that serious scale RC enthusiasts demand from their accessory collection.
