Crawling kit - EMO XL2 1/8 ARTR kit

Cross RC EMO XL2 Mustang 1/8 6X6 Crawler - ARTR kit

EMO XL2 is the second mass-produced 1/8 simulation 6X6 crawler from Cross RC. The model is an all-new design, fully based on real 6X6 conversion vehicles and combined with the performance demands placed on a true climbing vehicle.

The car is built around a bridge-type drive shaft and a double-reverse transmission portal axle structure as its drive foundation. It has independently controlled front and rear differential locks (the rear twin axles are controlled in parallel), a high-strength dual-speed all-metal gear transmission and a factory option of either a Haoying brushless or a powerful 775 brushed motor combination. This ensures performance, strength and powerful drive.

The third axle suspension mount is reinforced with CNC-machined aircraft aluminium combined with composite fibre material, ensuring strength with low weight and improved overall handling. Cross RC's 1/8 EMO X platform has been through 4 generations of development and has been continuously strengthened and upgraded — EMO XL2 introduces the latest 2025 reinforced portal-edge output shaft architecture, giving protection under extreme driving conditions.

The gearbox has a metal-gear reverse transmission with a CNC-machined aircraft aluminium motor mount that helps the motor dissipate heat effectively. The internal gears combine cutting and MIM injection technology for high strength, wear resistance and low noise. The whole car is fitted with high-precision ABEC3-class bearings, which are quiet and smooth and extend the maintenance interval. The suspension links are made from 7 mm 304 stainless steel, which is hard-wearing, rust-resistant and lowers the centre of gravity, while the suspension ball joints have been upgraded to reinforced ball joints for greater durability and impact resistance.

The extra-large 21 mm CNC shock absorbers have vacuum-coated shock shafts that improve damping smoothness and make better use of the shock oil. They are filled with 350CST shock oil and assembled vacuum-bled at the factory. The reinforced cross member increases the cross-section by 200%, giving much greater strength and making the car suitable for hard driving with high-power conversions. The solid front and rear portal axles are made from high-quality imported weather-resistant nylon that meets the strength requirements even in cold areas down to minus 20 degrees Celsius.

The whole car is fitted with 4 heavy-duty all-metal drive shafts. The second-generation rear balance linkage system has once again updated its geometry based on the new structure, first introduced in the industry in 2022 with the CROSSRC EMO X Rhino. The system effectively improves control of the roll centre during high-speed handling without affecting shock absorber function, and runs smoothly without binding.

The car runs on 2.2-inch lightweight nylon wheels paired with TALON MT tyres, made from professional synthetic material with high grip, durability and puncture resistance. As original equipment, the car has a powerful linked light group and grille marker lights with several modes and remote control. The whole vehicle uses a 7.4V high-voltage circuit with full control of gear shifting and differential locks.

This is the ARTR version (Almost Ready To Run), supplied without motor, transmitter, battery and charger — ready to be equipped as you choose.
