Overview

The Traxxas Slash combines accessible short-course race performance with durable construction through its extra-strong Extreme Heavy-Duty components. The reinforced C-hubs, axle carriers and steering blocks feature more material and stronger construction, making them better able to withstand the forces of intensive offroad driving and hard landings. The HD suspension arms provide extra durability at critical points, so you can enjoy longer without worrying about damage.

The Slash comes with everything you need to get started immediately. The powerful 3000mAh NiMH battery delivers sufficient power for extended runs up to 55+ km/h. The included USB-C charger enables fast charging thanks to the 4-amp charging current. This ready-to-run package means you can start driving right after unpacking and charging!

The carefully tuned independent suspension accurately replicates the driving characteristics of real full-size desert trucks. The Slash is specifically designed to make daring jumps and power through corners at full throttle. The Titan 12T motor with integrated cooling fan delivers reliable power, while the waterproof ESC with EZ-Set one-button setup offers flexibility for different driving styles. The fully adjustable oil-filled Ultra Shocks can be tuned to your preference and terrain.

The easily accessible battery compartment enables quick battery swaps and accepts both NiMH and optional 2S LiPo batteries. The brushless-ready transmission with metal gears is prepared for future upgrades. The scale-accurate tires provide just the right amount of grip and create thick, blinding dust clouds during intense, high-flying offroad action.
