Ford F-150 Ranger XLT 1/10 R/C Kit – Reissue Edition
A true icon of American pickup culture returns. Originally released as a 1/10 scale R/C kit in 1981, the legendary Ford F-150 Ranger XLT is back in a highly detailed reissue that captures the bold styling and rugged spirit of the full-size truck that defined an era.
Introduced as the first model of Ford’s seventh-generation F-Series, the 1980 F-150 featured a sharper, more angular design combined with a strong ladder-frame chassis engineered for durability and reduced weight. The Ranger trim represented the premium version of the lineup, recognizable by its distinctive two-tone paint schemes, chrome accents, and unmistakable American truck attitude. Optional “Free Wheelin’” appearance packages added colorful striping and unique styling touches that became legendary among classic truck enthusiasts.
This updated R/C reissue faithfully recreates that iconic look while integrating modern scale details for enhanced realism. Based on the original body shell, the kit now includes newly molded side mirrors, windshield wipers, and headlight housings. Optional LED light units (sold separately) can be installed for an even more authentic appearance. The redesigned front section includes a realistic grille and bumper guards, while the innovative stealth front body mount system eliminates visible body post holes for a cleaner, scale-correct finish.
At Aerobertics, we love bringing legendary vehicles back to life, and this reissue perfectly combines vintage American style with the fun and precision of classic R/C engineering.
