The chassis is a tough fiber-composite monocoque with a wide, low-profile design for increased stability. All electronics are securely fastened to the chassis.
Extreme heavy-duty strengthened caster blocks, axle carriers, and steering blocks are installed, along with HD suspension arms. The buggy is assembled with precision hex hardware.
The buggy runs a Titan® 12T 550, a high-speed brushed motor. This powerful modified motor has an internal cooling fan. An oversized armature gives big torque and increased power handling. Operation is virtually maintenance-free.
The motor weighs 8.47 ounces (240 g). Its overall length is 3.07 inches (78 mm), with a can length of 2.25 inches (57 mm). The diameter is 1.41 inches (36 mm). The shaft size is 3 mm, and the connector type is Bullet.
The buggy uses the Waterproof XL-5 ESC with low-voltage detection. This high-performance speed control has an innovative design and runs forward and reverse. Sport Mode gives forward, brake and reverse. Race Mode gives forward and brake. Training Mode™ gives 50% forward, brake and 50% reverse, and it is patented.
Traxxas EZ-Set® one-button setup is built in. The ESC works with LiPo and NiMH batteries, and its low-voltage detection is two-stage. The ESC is a brushed type. Its case size is 1.23 inches (31 mm) / 2.18 inches (55 mm) / 0.61 inches (15 mm). The ESC weighs 2.44 ounces (69 g).
