The Traxxas Mini Maxx BL-2s is a Mini-scale monster truck that arrives Ready-to-Race out of the box. Its top speed is 30+ mph. The maker rates it skill level 1, so it suits beginners.
Power comes from a BL-2s 3300 Kv sensorless brushless motor with an integrated cooling fan. The motor has a low-maintenance design and efficient ball bearings. Its measurements are:
The waterproof BL-2s Electronic Speed Control is a brushless unit that runs forward and reverse. It has a two-stage thermal shutdown and built-in two-stage low-voltage detection. The heat sink accepts an accessory cooling fan (3340), and the auxiliary fan port sits on the unit.
Three programmable drive profiles let you choose how the truck responds. Traxxas EZ-Set gives you one-button setup.
The speed control unit has these figures:
You drive the truck with a TQ 2.4 GHz 2-channel radio system. Its full-size transmitter offers all-day comfort with precise long-range control.
The Mini Maxx BL-2s has full-time shaft-driven 4-wheel drive in a 1/10 scale 4X4 driveline. Extreme-duty telescoping driveshafts carry the power to the wheels. The truck is direct drive, so there is no transmission.
The differentials are sealed planetary units with steel gears. Large 32-pitch gears run in a fixed gear mesh system. The overall drive ratio is 9.20:1.
The modular composite chassis has interlocking front and rear bulkheads. It absorbs and distributes impact energy, and it is easy to service and access components. The driveline is sealed in the chassis to keep out dirt.
The battery sits protected deep in the chassis. Its hold-down pivots for easy access and is more secure than conventional retention systems.
The clipless body mount system makes installation and removal quick and easy. Nerf bar channels give the body side support. Extra reinforcement protects the mount against tearing.
Tough energy absorbing bumpers take the knocks at each end. A high-angle front skid plate and rugged interlocking skid plates protect the underside. The smooth undertray eliminates snags. Integrated nerf bars add side impact resistance.
Steering uses a 1/10 scale 2056 waterproof high-torque servo. Heavy-duty double-shear bellcranks and a cam-style servo saver complete the steering linkage.
The suspension has heavy duty, double-shear arms in a dual wishbone design. Outer suspension components are extra tough. Oil-filled Ultra Shocks are full size 1/10 scale, with large oil capacity. They are easy to tune.
Dual-profile black multi-spoke wheels carry 4″ Sledgehammer tires with foam inserts. The tires have a wide treadblock design and multiple layers of biting edges.
The truck is assembled with hex hardware that has a rust-resistant black oxide coating. It also uses sealed ball bearings.
The box holds a 2-cell LiPo Traxxas iD battery and a USB-C LiPo balance charger with iD. Rated 3500 mAh for extended run time, the battery is 7.4 volts. The charger is rated 2 amps, and iD technology brings faster, safer charging.
