Traxxas Rustler Stadium Truck RTR Brushless (Red)

The Traxxas Rustler Stadium Truck is a ready-to-run 1/10 scale rig that pairs Velineon brushless power with the VXL-3s waterproof speed control and the TQi radio system for confident, high-speed driving. It’s aimed at intermediate drivers who want a forgiving, fast truck that handles jumps, curbs, and slides while offering tunability from the transmitter.

Key Features

• Clipless ProGraphix Body — One-handed removal with a reinforced inner cage, oversized positive latch, roof rollover protector, and a molded composite wing for a secure, race-ready shell.
• VXL-3s Waterproof ESC — Three operating modes (Sport, Race, Training) with one-button EZ-Set setup, large heat sink, and two-stage low-voltage detection for safe LiPo use.
• Sport, Race, and Training Modes — Sport gives full forward/brake/reverse, Race locks out reverse for competition, and Training limits speeds for controlled practice.
• Traxxas EZ-Set — Simple one-button calibration to get the truck tuned and on the track fast.
• Velineon 3500 Brushless Motor — High-efficiency design with sintered neodymium magnets, high-speed ball bearings and a precision-balanced rotor for strong, low-maintenance performance.
• Brilliant Blue-Anodized Finish — Attractive motor finish that resists wear and looks clean after heavy use.
• Traxxas Stability Management (TSM) — Helps maintain traction and steering control on slick surfaces, adjustable from off to full assistance via the transmitter.
• TQi 2.4 GHz High-Output Radio System — 2-channel transmitter with a 5-channel micro receiver (6533), fail-safe, telemetry ports, programmable knob and full endpoint/expo/dual-rate adjustments.
• Traxxas Link Ready — Radio stores settings for up to 30 Traxxas Link-enabled models and works with the optional Traxxas Link wireless module to access advanced tuning (module sold separately).
• Patented Waterproof Receiver Box — Keeps the receiver and wiring protected so you can drive in wet or muddy conditions.
• Low-CG Chassis — Composite modular tub lowers the center of gravity for responsive handling and includes a latching battery hold-down and a reinforced integrated wheelie bar.
• High-Approach Front Bumper — Designed to climb curbs and handle common trail obstacles without snagging.
• Durable Drivetrain — Larger heavy-duty driveshafts, anodized-aluminum center driveshaft, oil-filled steel gear differentials front and rear, and 32-pitch gearing for reliable power transfer.
• Torque Control Slipper — Heavy-duty slipper clutch with aluminum pads protects gears and lets you tune power delivery.
• Steering — Chassis-mounted 2075 digital high-torque waterproof servo with a dual bellcrank layout and integrated servo saver for precise, protected steering.
• Suspension — Adjustable toe and camber links, impact-resistant composite arms, oil-filled Ultra Shocks, captured rod ends that won’t pop off, strong shock towers, and white powder-coated progressive springs.
• Wheels & Tires — Large 2.8" black chrome wheels mounted with Talon EXT tires for traction across mixed surfaces.
• Sealed Ball Bearings — Reduce friction and improve drivetrain longevity.
• Hex Hardware — Rust-resistant black oxide coating for longer life on exposed fasteners.
• Battery & Charger — This truck requires a battery and charger; both are sold separately.
