Every component from the Hobbywing brushless outrunner to the Hexfly 50kg brushless servo is selected to give drivers smooth low‑speed finesse, powerful climbing authority, and reliable performance on any terrain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth Vertex 10 models share the same core DNA: air emulsion-style shocks with aluminum bodies, machined ring and pinion gears, steel front axle tubes, aluminum rear tubes, and a drivetrain tuned for aggressive front‑end pull. With double‑CV front shafts, a 58‑degree steering angle, and a rigid carbon backbone, the platform is built to handle technical crawling, steep ascents, and unpredictable rock surfaces with confidence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhere the Vertex 10 platform becomes truly versatile is in its two distinct configurations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003eVertex 10\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eis designed for precision, agility, and tight‑line mastery, the crawler you choose when the terrain gets tight and technical.

Where the Vertex 10 excels in tight technical lines, the Wide version dominates big, open, high‑risk terrain with a planted, predictable feel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 3mm carbon‑fiber chassis is paired with a narrow aluminum skid plate and 74mm of ground clearance — a full centimeter more than the Standard. Larger 5.25\" tires on 2.2\" beadlocks give the Wide a commanding presence and improved rollover resistance. The emulsion-style shocks use the same aluminum bodies and 40wt oil as the standard version, but the Wide features tuned spring rates (0.17 N\/mm front, 0.2 N\/mm rear) to support its broader stance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePower comes from the same Hobbywing 2812 1700KV brushless outrunner and WP‑10BL60 ESC, backed by the Hexfly HX‑50BL 50kg servo. But the Wide’s drivetrain is tuned differently: a more aggressive 32% overdrive (48.57:1 front \/ 66.79:1 rear) gives the front end even more authority, improving climbing ability and steering control on big obstacles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompared to the Vertex 10 standard version, the Vertex 10 Wide is the more forgiving, more stable, more confidence‑boosting crawler. It’s built for drivers who want to attack bold lines, explore rugged terrain, and push the limits without worrying about tipping or sliding.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVertex 10 Wide Key Technical Specs:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eWidth (Hex‑Hex):\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e228mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eWheelbase:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e330mm (12.99\")\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eChassis:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e3mm carbon fiber\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eGround Clearance:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e74mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eTires\/Wheels:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e5.25\" tires, 2.2\" beadlock wheels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eMotor:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eHobbywing 2812 1700KV brushless outrunner (2–4S)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eESC:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eHobbywing WP‑10BL60‑Crawler‑RTR w\/ 10A, 8.4V BEC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eServo:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eHexfly HX‑50BL 50kg brushless\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eSteering Angle:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e58°\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eAxle Ratios:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e9:1 front \/ 12.375:1 rear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eTotal Overdrive:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e32%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e2399g (without battery)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eBody:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eV10W 2‑piece\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eLights:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eN\/A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePersonality:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003estable, planted, bold\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBest For:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eoutdoor rock gardens, steep sidehills, aggressive terrain\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eContrast:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003ewider, more stable, more forgiving than the standard version built for confidence\/p\u0026gt;\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0079\/2428\/5530\/t\/3\/assets\/8a8780277899--VERTEX-10-WIDE-PDP-01-f66ff1.jpg?v=1781125887\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"font-size-4 letter-spacing-2 text-uppercase font-weight-9 margin-top-7 margin-bottom-2\"\u003eREDCAT VERTEX-10W CRAWLER\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"font-size-3 large--font-size-4 font-weight-5 large--line-height-copy-tall measure-wide center margin-bottom-7 padding-horizontal-5\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuilt for serious performance, the Redcat Vertex-10W features and extended-width stance for increased stability and confidence on challenging terrain, Equipped with a powerful Hobbywing brushless system, high-clearance portal axles, carbon fiber components, and precision steering, ther Vertex-10W deliver exceptional control, capability, and durability.
