Traxxas Ford Raptor R 4X4 Ultimate RTR VXL-4s (Special Edition)

Traxxas Ford Raptor R 4X4 Ultimate is a ready-to-run 1/10 short-course truck built to deliver big speed and solid handling straight out of the box. Waterproof VXL-4s electronics pair with a Velineon 540XL brushless motor and the TQi radio system so you get telemetry, responsive throttle and reliable control for trail, track, or backyard bashing.

Key Features

• Official Ford F-150 Raptor R licensed Pro Scale body — Clipless pro-scale styling with molded bumpers, grille, tailgate, side mirrors and hood vent for a realistic appearance.
• Integrated LED lighting — Front and rear bumper LEDs provide visibility and a finished look for evening runs.
• Body reinforcements — Built-in reinforcements reduce pull-through damage during hard impacts.
• Clipless body mounting — Holds the shell firmly during aggressive driving, removes fast and leaves a clean, post-free appearance.
• Color-matched 6061-T6 alloy suspension parts — C-hubs, steering blocks and rear hub carriers match the body and upgrade strength over stock plastic pieces.
• VXL-4s waterproof electronic speed control — Supports 2S–4S LiPo setups, offers real-time telemetry via Traxxas Link, and accepts an accessory cooling fan on the large heat sink.
• Selectable high-voltage BEC — Choose the 7.4-volt high-voltage BEC for devices that need extra headroom.
• Three programmable drive profiles — Sport (Forward/Brake/Reverse), Race (Forward/Brake) and Training Mode (patented 50% forward/brake/50% reverse) let you dial in behavior for skill or track needs.
• EZ-Set one-button setup — Quick, one-button programming gets the ESC configured and ready.
• Integrated protection and LED status — Built-in safety circuits and status LEDs keep you informed while protecting electronics.
• Velineon 540XL brushless motor — Long-format, 4-pole 2400 Kv design with a 5 mm output shaft for strong, low-maintenance power.
• TQi 2.4 GHz radio with wireless module — Factory telemetry sensors, a high-power two-channel transmitter, and a programmable multi-function knob for on-the-fly tuning.
• Model memory — Radio automatically stores and loads settings for up to 30 Traxxas Link-enabled models.
• 5-channel micro receiver (6533) — Includes fail-safe security and a patented sealed receiver box with easy-access plug for cleaner hookups.

• Suspension hardware — Heavy-duty suspension arms and adjustable 4 mm steel toe and camber links for precise alignment and geometry tuning.
• GTR oil-filled shocks — Aluminum-bodied oil-filled shocks with about 70% more oil capacity than standard Ultra Shocks, threaded bodies and adjustable spring collars for consistent damping and easy preload changes.
• TiN-coated shock shafts — Reduced friction for smoother suspension action and longer seal life.
• Extended modular composite tub chassis — Durable foundation with heavy-duty front and rear shock towers to resist impacts.
• Secure battery hold-down latch — Keeps the pack locked in place during jumps and hard landings.
• Side nerf bars — Added protection around the chassis rails for contact resistance.

• Dual bellcrank steering — Integrated servo saver and a dependable mechanical layout for consistent steering feel.
• Full-time shaft-driven 4WD — Torque-biasing center drive provides controlled power distribution for traction on varied surfaces.
• Differentials — Hardened steel bevel differentials front and rear, oil-filled and sealed with limited-slip characteristics for consistent power transfer.
• Steel 32-pitch spur gear — Durable drivetrain gear for heavy loads.
• Anodized center driveshaft — Aluminum center shaft resists wear and torsion under load.
• Maxx-duty driveshafts — Oversize diameter shafts with 6 mm axles built to handle high torque.
• Licensed Ford replica option wheels — 2" outer diameter and 3" inner diameter for a scale look and proper fitment.
• Licensed BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2 tires — Large 114 mm diameter tires provide bite on mixed terrain and authentic footprint.
