Traxxas Slash 4X4 Ultimate RTR Brushless (Green)

The Traxxas Slash 4X4 Ultimate is a ready-to-run 1/10 short course truck built for real-world racing and aggressive backyard bashing. It pairs brushless Velineon power with waterproof electronics, a low-center-of-gravity monocoque chassis, and pre-installed aluminum upgrades so you can drive hard without a lot of setup.

Key Features

• Pre-installed heavy-duty aluminum upgrades: 6061-T6 aluminum parts finished in blue anodize include C-hubs, steering blocks, rear hub carriers, and axle nuts for improved strength and long-term wear resistance.
• Race-replica ProGraphix painted body: Pre-painted, decaled body with scale proportions, chassis nerf bars to absorb impacts and support the shell, plus scale front and rear tube-style bumpers for authentic looks.
• VXL-3s waterproof electronic speed control: One-button Traxxas EZ-Set setup with Sport (forward/brake/reverse), Race (forward/brake), and Training Mode (50% forward/brake, 50% reverse). Features a large heat sink and built-in two-stage low-voltage detection; accepts NiMH (6–9 cells / 7.2–10.8 volts) and LiPo (2–3 cells / 7.4–11.1 volts).
• Velineon 3500 brushless motor: Sensorless motor with ultra-high-temperature sintered neodymium magnets, high-speed ball bearings, a precision-balanced rotor, and 3500 kV for strong acceleration and efficient top-end power in 1/10 scale applications.
• Brilliant blue-anodized finish: Visible blue-anodized components add corrosion resistance and track-ready aesthetics.
• Traxxas Stability Management (TSM): Electronic traction control that improves straight-line acceleration and braking on low-traction surfaces, preserves steering feel for throttle-on powerslides, and is adjustable from off up to full assistance via the transmitter.
• TQi 2.4 GHz high-output radio system: TQi 2-channel transmitter with a 5-channel micro receiver (6533) that includes fail-safe and telemetry ports; stores settings for up to 30 Traxxas Link-enabled models and supports the optional Traxxas Link Wireless Module (6511). Features a programmable multi-function knob and full dual-rate/expo/end-point adjustment.
• Low-CG reinforced monocoque chassis: Batteries and electronics sit low to improve cornering speed, the modular layout simplifies maintenance, and a long 12.75" wheelbase adds high-speed stability. Motor access is single-screw for quick changes and electronics mount securely; includes an integrated personal transponder bracket.
• Easy-access battery compartment: Adjustable battery hold-down accepts 6- and 7-cell NiMH flat packs and fits many 2s and 3s LiPo configurations.
• Transmission and driveline: Full-time shaft-driven 4WD with a blue-anodized aluminum center driveshaft, Torque-Control slipper clutch, large 32-pitch gearing, sealed silicone-filled differentials with steel gears, and upgraded extreme-duty telescoping driveshafts for durability under load.
• Steering: Digital high-speed 2075R metal-gear, waterproof steering servo with a dual bellcrank steering system and integrated servo saver for precise, protected steering action.
• Suspension: Impact-resistant heavy-duty suspension arms, front and rear sway bars that can be tuned for handling, steel turnbuckles that adjust toe and camber, and captured rod ends designed not to pop off under stress.
• Springs and shocks: High-volume GTR shocks with adjustable-collar blue PTFE-coated aluminum bodies and titanium-nitride coated shafts, matched to race-tuned white powder-coated springs for consistent damping and improved control.
• Wheels and tires: Officially licensed BFGoodrich Mud-Terrain T/A tires molded in S1 race compound, mounted on dual-profile SCT wheels with a 2" outer diameter and 3" inner diameter for traction and stability.
• Rubber-sealed ball bearings: Full complement of sealed bearings for smooth drivetrain and wheel rotation.
• Precision hex hardware: Hardened hardware used throughout for reliable assembly and serviceability.
• Traxxas support and parts availability: Access to a wide parts network and support resources to keep the truck running season after season.
• Requires battery and charger: Truck does not include battery or charger; both are sold separately.
