Traxxas Maxx Monster Truck RTR Brushless (Orange)

These Traxxas Maxx Monster Truck RTRs bring brushless power and big-truck capability to the backyard or the track. The Velineon 540XL motor and VXL-4s speed control deliver high top speeds while Traxxas Stability Management and the TQi radio keep handling predictable and adjustable for experienced drivers.

Key Features

• VXL-4s Waterproof Electronic Speed Control — Brushless speed control with built-in cooling fan, machined heat sinks, 10-gauge silicone wiring, integrated protection circuits and LED status lights; compatible with recommended LiPo battery packs and provides real-time telemetry via Traxxas Link.
• Velineon 540XL Brushless Motor — Long-format, 4-pole motor rated at 2400 Kv with a 5 mm output shaft, aluminum heat sink and dedicated cooling fan for sustained high-speed runs.
• Out-of-the-box speed — Capable of 55+ mph with a single high-capacity LiPo battery (sold separately) and 60+ mph with optional gearing and a single high-capacity LiPo battery (sold separately).
• Traxxas Stability Management (TSM) — Electronic stability assistance that helps prevent spinouts and loss of control, adjustable from off to full assistance from the transmitter.
• TQi 2.4 GHz High Output Radio System — Transmitter and telemetry-ready 5-channel micro receiver (6533) with fail-safe and telemetry ports, multi-function knob, adjustable steering/throttle percentages (dual rates) and exponential settings; saves settings for up to 30 Traxxas Link-enabled models.
• Clipless Body Mount System — One-hand body installation and removal with a pivoting rear latch, eliminates body posts and clips and is reinforced for extra tear resistance.
• Driveline — Full-time shaft-driven 4WD with Torque-Biasing Center Drive to absorb shocks, sealed silicone fluid-filled differentials with large-module ring and pinion gears, splined outdrives secured with thru-bolts, heavy-duty Cush Drive and extreme-duty telescoping driveshafts plus a splined aluminum center driveshaft.
• Secure Motor Mounting System — Preset precision gear mesh, motor retention isolated from gear mesh, full-length motor cradle and 17 mm keyed wheel hex with 5 mm nut for reliable wheel retention.
• Modular Composite Chassis — Interlocking chassis that ties into front and rear bulkheads to absorb and distribute impact energy, with a sealed driveline that keeps out dirt and grit and easy access to service components.
• Easy Battery Access — Extended battery tray accepts a 6700 mAh 4-cell LiPo battery; battery sits protected deep in the chassis and pivoting hold-downs make removal and installation straightforward and secure.
• Bumpers and Protection — Energy-absorbing front and rear bumpers, lower skids for impact and abrasion resistance, integrated nerf bars for side impacts and a wheelie bar with an integrated carry handle.
• Heavy-Duty Steering Bell Cranks & Servo Saver — Large-scale high-output steering servo delivering 285 oz-in of torque and 0.18 second transit speed, mounted with a triangulated system and heavy double-shear bellcranks for strong steering response.
• Suspension — WideMaxx double-shear suspension arms (1.57" / 40 mm wider) for improved handling, a composite formula that resists impact even in cold weather, optimized geometry for travel and steering angle, double-shear strength at critical points, steel pivot balls and 4 mm machined pivot balls where required.
• Steering Geometry & Links — C-hub and steering block geometry for maximum steering angle, fixed high-strength camber and toe links, steel upper and lower tie bars and full-contact sealed bearings in exposed locations.
• GT-Maxx Shocks — Machined aluminum threaded bodies with extra-large bore and capacity, large-diameter damper shafts, lower seal cartridges with dual X-rings, adjustable upper spring retainers, plastic shock caps with pivot balls and bolted lower spring perches.
• Wheels & Tires — Tough 2.8" wheels with keyed 17 mm hex receptor, Sledgehammer extreme tires with one-piece foam inserts, pre-glued and ready to run; tires and chassis tuned for Traxxas Stability Management (TSM) performance.
