More info
The Traxxas 4-Tec Drift Nissan 240SX is a 1/10 scale drift car, sold ready to race (RTR). It is built on the 4-Tec Drift platform. Its body is an officially licensed Nissan 240SX. Skill level is 1, so it suits beginners.
Body and chassis
The body is clipless, which eliminates body post holes. Clipless body mounts let you remove the body quickly and easily. Reinforced body mounts are integrated into the molded details. Injection molded details include the grille, splitter, side mirrors, and spoiler. Replica brake discs have red calipers and incorporate standard 12 mm wheel hexes.
The Low Center of Gravity (Low CG) chassis positions weight low for improved handling. A smooth underside resists drag and snags. Modular interlocking chassis pieces improve rigidity and tighten tolerances. They also allow for easy maintenance.
Drivetrain and motor
The car is rear-wheel drive with direct drive and no slipper clutch. The differential is a spool: a rear spool with spiral-cut gears for smooth and quiet running. The gears are 48 pitch.
The motor is the Titan® Drift 21T 550, a high-torque brushed motor. It weighs 8.47 ounces (240 g). Overall length is 3.07 inches (78 mm), with a can length of 2.25 inches (57 mm). Diameter is 1.53 inches (39 mm), and the shaft size is 3 mm. The motor connector type is Bullet. An internal cooling fan is built in, and operation is virtually maintenance-free. The motor plate has a fixed gear mesh. A molded wire retainer keeps the motor wires secure.
Speed control
The speed control is the Waterproof XL-5™ ESC (fwd/rev) with low-voltage detection. The XL-5 has an innovative waterproof design. The ESC type is brushed. The case measures 1.23 inches (31 mm) / 2.18 inches (55 mm) / 0.61 inches (15 mm). The unit weighs 2.44 ounces (69 g). The motor connectors on the ESC are Bullet, and the battery connector is the Traxxas High Current Connector. The power wire is 14 gauge.
The ESC has three drive profiles:
- Sport Mode: forward / brake / reverse
- Race Mode: forward / brake
- Training Mode™: 50% forward / brake / 50% reverse (patented)
Traxxas EZ-Set® provides one-button setup. The ESC is LiPo and NiMH compatible, and the low-voltage detection works in two stages.
Radio, steering and stability management
The radio system is a TQi™ 2.4 GHz 3-channel transmitter with the Traxxas Link™ Wireless Module. The transmitter automatically stores and loads settings for up to 30 Traxxas Link-enabled models. It also has an electronic handbrake.
The receiver is a 5-channel micro receiver (6533) with fail-safe security. The receiver box is patented, waterproof, and has an easy-access plug. Steering comes from a 2075 digital high-torque ball bearing waterproof servo.
Traxxas Stability Management (TSM)® features 3 drift modes: TSM Drift Mode, TSM Mode, and Gyro Mode. TSM Drift Mode has adjustable steering angle, steering reflex, and throttle reflex, plus spinout assist. Assistance adjusts from off to 100% from the transmitter.
Suspension, wheels and battery bay
The high-performance suspension has geometry tuned for drifting. It has dual rear camber link mounts and is adjustable for droop, camber, toe, ackerman, track, and roll center. The shocks are fully adjustable oil-filled Ultra Shocks™ with X-ring technology. Extra-soft springs maximize weight transfer.
The wheels are six-spoke tuner wheels, and rubber wheel inserts hold the tires securely. The car also uses rubber-sealed ball bearings and precision hex hardware.
The adjustable battery hold down makes battery installation easy and secure. It swivels to allow different height batteries and locks securely without pins or parts to lose. The battery compartment measures 174 mm X 48 mm X 23 mm or 26 mm.
