Traxxas Stampede Monster Truck XL-5 2WD RTR (Orange)

Traxxas Stampede Monster Truck is a ready-to-run 1/10 scale 2WD truck that pairs big-torque performance with easy operation and LED lighting. It’s set up for beginners but offers features serious hobbyists will appreciate: waterproof XL-5 speed control, Titan 12T 550 motor cooling, and a tall 4" center ground clearance for rough terrain.

Key Features

• ProGraphix painted body — pre-painted monster truck shell with applied decals for a finished look out of the box.
• Waterproof XL-5 electronic speed control — waterproof design that handles wet conditions and includes Sport, Race, and patented Training Mode for controlled practice.
• EZ-Set one-button setup for the XL-5 makes programming and arming the ESC fast and simple.
• XL-5 is compatible with NiMH and LiPo batteries and has two-stage low-voltage detection to protect packs.
• Titan 12T 550 motor — a high-speed brushed motor with an internal cooling fan and oversized armature for stronger torque and better power handling.
• Designed for virtually maintenance-free operation so you spend more time driving and less time wrenching.
• TQ 2.4 GHz 2-channel radio system — ergonomic transmitter with internal antenna for comfortable control.
• Includes Traxxas 6519 three-channel micro receiver with fail-safe and an O-ring sealed watertight receiver box to keep electronics dry.
• Includes battery and charger — comes with a fast charging 4-amp DC peak-detecting charger and a ready-to-run rechargeable battery pack.
• Fiber-composite monocoque chassis — strong chassis construction with tall 4" center ground clearance to roll over obstacles and keep electronics mounted securely.
• Easy-access battery compartment accepts NiMH 6- and 7-cell flat and hump packs and 2-cell LiPo batteries for flexible power options.
• Magnum 272 metal-gear transmission — brushless-ready gearbox with Torque-Control slipper clutch and a planetary steel gear differential for smooth power delivery.
• Sealed gearbox with beefed-up motor guard and external gear cover for easier slipper access and better protection.
• Heavy-duty telescoping U-joint driveshafts and yokes improve drivetrain strength and durability under load.
• Steering — high-torque waterproof Traxxas 2056 steering servo with a spring-loaded servo saver to reduce impact damage.
