The Traxxas Slash 4X4 VXL is a ready-to-run 1/10 short course truck that pairs brushless Velineon power with waterproof electronics and Traxxas Stability Management for confident handling. It’s aimed at drivers who want serious speed and durable race-style hardware right out of the box.
Key Features
- Clipless ProGraphix painted body — Pre-painted, decal-applied body that captures the scale look of real short course race trucks while saving setup time.
- Scale front and rear tube-style bumpers plus chassis nerf bars that absorb impact and support the body during rough landings.
- Extreme Heavy Duty upgrade kit installed — Reinforced C-hubs, axle carriers, steering blocks, and shock towers for stronger crash resistance.
- Maxx-duty driveshafts — Oversize-diameter shafts with 6 mm axles and steel wheel hexes to handle high power and hard use.
- VXL-3s waterproof electronic speed control — Programmable ESC with three drive profiles: Sport (forward/brake/reverse), Race (forward/brake), and Training Mode™ (patented 50% forward/brake/50% reverse).
- EZ-Set one-button setup, a large heat sink, and built-in two-stage low-voltage detection for LiPo packs to protect batteries and simplify tuning.
- Velineon 3500 brushless motor — High-revving sensorless motor with sintered Neodymium magnets, precision-balanced rotor, high-speed ball bearings, and a blue-anodized finish for reliable power in 1/10 scale rigs.
- Traxxas Stability Management (TSM) — Helps with straight-line acceleration and braking on low-traction surfaces, preserves steering control during throttle-on slides, and is adjustable from off to full from the transmitter.
- TQi 2.4 GHz high-output radio system — 2-channel transmitter with a 5-channel micro receiver (6533) that includes fail-safe, telemetry ports, a programmable multi-function knob, and a patented sealed receiver box.
- Radio system automatically stores settings for up to 30 Traxxas Link-enabled models and is compatible with the Traxxas Link Wireless Module for app control (module sold separately).
- Tough fiber-composite modular chassis — Modular design that speeds maintenance, features a long 12.75" wheelbase for stability, single-screw motor plate for quick motor access, and secure electronics mounting.
- Easy access battery compartment — Adjustable hold-down that accepts a variety of packs, including many flat 6- and 7-cell packs, hump-style 7- and 8-cell packs, and many 2- and 3-cell LiPo configurations.
- Transmission and driveline — Full-time shaft-driven 4WD with a blue-anodized aluminum center driveshaft, a heavy-duty slipper clutch, large 32-pitch gears, and sealed, silicone-filled differentials with steel gears.
- Steering — Digital high-torque 2075 waterproof steering servo paired with a dual bellcrank system and integrated servo saver for precise control.
- Suspension — Durable composite suspension arms, adjustable steel turnbuckles, and captured rod ends designed to stay in place under load.
- Springs and shocks — Fully adjustable oil-filled Ultra Shocks with X-ring technology and race-tuned progressive-rate white powder-coated springs for consistent damping.
- Wheels and tires — Pre-glued BFGoodrich Mud Terrain T/A tires mounted on dual-profile SCT wheels with performance foam inserts (2" outer diameter, 3" inner diameter).
- Rubber-sealed ball bearings throughout for smoother drivetrain operation and longer life.
- Precision hex hardware for consistent assembly and serviceability.
- Backed by extensive Traxxas support and parts availability for long-term ownership.
