Traxxas Maxx Slash RTR 6S (Blue)

The Traxxas Maxx Slash is a fully assembled, ready-to-run 1/10 scale 4WD brushless electric short course racing truck built around a powerful, feature-rich platform for fast driving and dependable control. It pairs the VXL-6s waterproof electronic speed control with a Velineon 4-pole 2000 Kv brushless motor, and the fixed-mesh motor cradle supports the full motor length while helping reduce flex for longer gear life. The modular low-CG composite chassis, full-time shaft-driven 4-wheel drive, and torque-biasing center drive with aluminum housing all work together as part of the truck’s core design.

Traxxas Stability Management adds adjustable assistance for low-traction surfaces, improving straight-line acceleration and braking without dulling throttle response. The TQi 2.4 GHz high output radio system is Traxxas Link enabled and automatically stores and loads settings for up to 30 Traxxas Link-enabled models, so you can switch on and drive without model selection. The blue Maxx Slash also keeps driving practical in changing conditions, thanks to waterproof electronics and a clipless body that makes access quick and secure while managing airflow for high-speed stability.

70+ mph capability is possible with optional gearing and two 3s LiPo batteries sold separately. That headline speed is backed by heavy-duty driveline hardware, sealed silicone fluid-filled differentials, steel pinion and spur gear, a heavy-duty Cush Drive, steel-core hybrid telescoping driveshafts, and a splined aluminum center driveshaft. The truck also uses heavy-duty steering bellcranks and a high-output servo for strong steering support, along with GT-Maxx shocks, reinforced suspension hardware, and large belted tires built into the platform.

Why Choose This Product

The Maxx Slash combines the speed potential of a 6s-capable brushless system with the control of Traxxas Stability Management and the practical strength of a sealed modular chassis. The clipless body, reinforced suspension hardware, and impact-absorbing bumpers support hard short course use while keeping the platform clean and accessible.

It also keeps the driving experience straightforward in ways that matter after the first run. The radio system stores settings for up to 30 Traxxas Link-enabled models, the battery compartment is easy to access, and the waterproof ESC helps keep the truck running when conditions turn wet. With optional gearing and two 3s LiPo batteries sold separately, the truck’s 70+ mph capability gives it the kind of headline speed many short course fans want.
