FairRC 1/18 Flatbed Classic Mod RTR – FCX18 Chevy K10 Flatbed Edition

The FairRC Flatbed Classic Mod transforms the standard 1/18 Chevy K10 into a versatile and stylish scale truck with a precision 3D-printed resin flatbed, remote-controlled light effects, and classic square-body detailing. Available in white, black, or limited-edition red, this Ready-to-Run model strikes a balance between authenticity and customization, catering to enthusiasts who seek both utility and vintage charm.

Appearance & Custom Styling

Retaining the iconic square-body cab and front grille, this modification adds a flatbed platform, ideal for hauling irregular cargo or creating custom-scale scenes. Enhanced with Batrazzi steelie wheels featuring brass wheel weights and soft, aggressive Mud Pro-X tires, the model elevates both aesthetics and realism.

Chassis & Drivetrain

Built on the durable FCX18 platform, the flatbed edition inherits a robust metal-beam structure with portal axles, a two-speed transmission, four-link suspension, and metal bearings throughout for reliability and articulation. Propelled by a dependable 180-sized brushed motor and powered by the included 900 mAh battery, it can deliver up to around one hour of runtime.

Build Quality

The craftsmanship stands out with its solid metal chassis, hydraulic shock absorbers, and premium materials. The 3D-printed resin bed adds utility without compromising strength, while silicone buckles secure the body for both realism and durability.

Control & Performance

This model includes remote-controlled lighting features for headlights and taillights, giving nighttime scale runs added flair. While electronics details are standard for FairRC RTR builds, the chassis and drivetrain are proven components known for dependable crawling performance.

Ease of Use & Maintenance

Arriving fully assembled and ready for action, maintenance is made accessible via its modular design. The included battery and charger mean you can hit the trail quickly, and the flatbed mod's clean install ensures you can customize or upgrade with ease.

Special Notes & Custom Appeal

Choosing this Flatbed Classic Mod not only gives you a unique scale build, but the flatbed also supports creative customization or prop placement. It stands out at scale meets or trail runs, offering both functionality and a vintage truck aesthetic.
