Key Features
- Clear Polycarbonate Construction — The tough, impact-resistant polycarbonate material provides excellent durability whilst allowing you to display the intricate mechanical components of your Mini XRT, creating a unique visual appeal that stands out in any RC car collection and protecting your investment through countless bashings.
- Fully Trimmed and Ready to Mount — This bodyshell arrives completely trimmed, meaning you won't waste time cutting windows or struggling with alignment—simply remove it from the box and install it onto your chassis using the included body cage and clipless latches for immediate enjoyment.
- Integrated Cooling Vents — The aerodynamic cooling vents built directly into the body design help manage heat dissipation during extended running sessions, ensuring your electronics remain at optimal operating temperatures and protecting against thermal-induced performance issues that can plague RC vehicles during intense use.
- Clipless Body Latches — The innovative clipless latch system eliminates the frustration of fiddly clips and provides quick, tool-free body removal for maintenance and battery changes, meaning you spend less time faffing about with your RC car and more time enjoying it on the track or off-road.
- Body Cage Included — The protective body cage framework comes integrated with the package, providing structural support and an additional layer of crash protection that absorbs impacts and protects the bodyshell from damage during aggressive driving or inevitable tumbles.
- Pre-Applied Overspray Film — Factory-applied masking film protects critical areas during painting, ensuring professional results when you apply your chosen Traxxas ProGraphix paint colour, saving time and reducing the learning curve for custom finishing.
- Decal Sheets Supplied — Authentic Traxxas decals and window masking sheets are included, allowing you to create a factory-finished appearance or serve as inspiration for your own custom graphics and designs that reflect your personal style.
- Window Masking Included — Precision-cut window masking takes the guesswork out of paint preparation, ensuring clean lines and professional-looking results even if you're attempting custom body artwork for the first time on your Mini XRT.
Technical Performance
The Traxxas Mini XRT Clear Body TRX10715 is engineered from premium polycarbonate material that delivers the perfect balance between light weight and structural rigidity. This is not a flimsy bodyshell—it's built to withstand the rigours of both competitive racing and casual bashing that UK RC enthusiasts demand. The clear polycarbonate allows complete visibility of your Mini XRT's drivetrain, electronics and internal components, creating an educational and visually stunning display whilst maintaining the structural integrity needed for high-speed running. The integrated cooling vents are strategically positioned to promote airflow around the ESC and motor, critical for maintaining consistent performance during extended outdoor sessions or intense indoor track use. The clipless latch system represents Traxxas engineering excellence, providing secure retention without the weight penalty of traditional clip systems. The body cage assembly adds lateral support and absorbs impacts that would otherwise transfer directly to the chassis frame. With this replacement body, your Mini XRT remains a competitive platform suitable for stadium truck and truggy class racing, ready-to-run RC bashers, or serious hobby-grade drivers seeking to upgrade their vehicle's visual presentation whilst maintaining factory performance characteristics.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Is the Traxxas Mini XRT Clear Body suitable for beginners in RC? — Yes, this bodyshell is extremely beginner-friendly. The fully-trimmed design means no cutting or complex preparation is required, and the clipless latches make installation and removal straightforward without needing specialist tools. If you're new to RC cars in the UK, this is an excellent entry point into customisation and maintenance.
- What Mini XRT models does this body fit? — This clear body is compatible with the entire Traxxas Mini XRT VXL-3S range, including the Red (TRX108076-1-RED), Blue (TRX108076-1-BLUE), Green (TRX108076-1-GRN), and Orange (TRX108076-1-ORNG) variants. It's designed specifically for the Mini XRT platform, so compatibility is guaranteed across these models.
- Do I need to paint this bodyshell? — No, you have options. The clear polycarbonate can be used as-is if you prefer the transparent look that shows off your electronics and mechanical components. However, Traxxas recommends using their ProGraphix paint system for a custom finish. The pre-applied overspray film and included window masking make painting straightforward if you choose to add colour.
- What is ProGraphix paint and why does Traxxas recommend it? — ProGraphix is Traxxas's proprietary paint system specifically formulated for polycarbonate RC bodies. It adheres properly to polycarbonate, provides excellent colour vibrancy, and cures to a durable finish that resists chipping and fading. Using ProGraphix ensures your custom paint job looks professional and lasts through countless bashings and track sessions.
- How do I install this bodyshell onto my Mini XRT? — Installation is straightforward. Position the body over your chassis, ensuring it aligns properly with the body cage mounting points. The clipless latches secure the body in place without requiring clips, bolts, or tools. The integrated body cage provides structural support and crash protection. Removal is just as simple—release the latches and lift the body away from the chassis.
- Can I see my Mini XRT's internal components with this clear body? — Yes, that's one of the key advantages of the clear polycarbonate design. You'll have full visibility of your motor, ESC, drivetrain and other internal systems, which is great for monitoring component condition and showcasing the quality engineering inside your RC vehicle. This transparency makes the Mini XRT an impressive display piece even when not running.
- What makes this body different from generic aftermarket alternatives? — This is an officially licensed Traxxas product engineered specifically for the Mini XRT platform. The polycarbonate quality is superior to budget alternatives, the fitment is precision-engineered to work perfectly with your chassis, and it includes all the extras you need—body cage, latches, masking, and decals. You're buying Traxxas quality and reliability, not a generic substitute.
- Is this body waterproof for wet weather RC driving? — Polycarbonate is inherently water-resistant, so the bodyshell itself handles wet conditions well. However, your electronics and motor need appropriate waterproofing independent of the body. Ensure your Mini XRT's ESC and motor are rated for wet conditions if you plan to run in rain or muddy environments.
