Traxxas XRT VXL-8S Ultimate X-Truck Race Truggy RTR – Blue

The powerful Velineon 1200XL 1275Kv brushless motor and VXL-8S electronic speed controller provide incredible acceleration and speeds exceeding 95 km/h with two 4S LiPo batteries and optional gearing. The heavy-duty 4WD drivetrain is engineered to handle the extreme demands of 8S brushless power.

What sets the Ultimate edition apart is its extensive collection of factory-installed 6061-T6 aluminum upgrades, including steering blocks, C-hubs, rear hub carriers, and reinforced components. A powerful metal-gear steering servo and upgraded GTX aluminum shocks with TiN-coated shafts deliver enhanced steering precision and suspension performance.

Belted Gravix tires help reduce tire ballooning at high speeds, improving stability and handling. The Traxxas TQi 2.4 GHz radio system includes a factory-installed Traxxas Link Wireless Module and telemetry, allowing drivers to monitor vehicle performance through a compatible smart device.
