How to Buy Order# TRA7008

Traxxas
Slash set the standard short-course power, performance and versatility. Now
you can experience the fun of wheel-to-wheel Slash racing 1/16 scale—with
Velineon brushless power and 4WD! At 14 inches long, the new 1/16 Slash VXL
4WD is about half the size of the 1/10-scale Slash. But don't call it a
"mini"—this is a whole new category of R/C performance and fun that no mere
mini-model can match. Short-course styling that captures the attitude of the
full-size Traxxas TORC-series racer is just the beginning. Beneath the
factory-finished polycarbonate shell, you'll find the winning suspension
technology of the seven-time National Champion Traxxas Revo®, screaming
Velineon® brushless-motor power, and the convention-busting innovation of
the E-Revo.

No detail was overlooked in our mission to
bring all the capability, durability, and excitement of Traxxas'
award-winning models to 1/16 scale for fast, affordable R/C fun. The Slash
VXL 4WD is built on the race-winning, track-proven innovation of the Revo
and E-Revo models. The standard-bearer of design excellence, the Revo's
F1-inspired, rocker-actuated suspension has been expertly adapted to 1/16
scale with all its functionality and performance intact, right down to the
oil-filled, threaded-body GTR shocks. This superior technology provides
capability, performance, and tuning functions at the absolute pinnacle of
truck design. The suspension and electronics are fully
integrated into the semi-monocoque chassis design that stunned the world
when it debuted with the E-Revo. Intricately molded as a single piece, the
chassis balances strength and weight, function and aesthetics, convenience
and performance to far surpass the standards of the "mini" category. In 1/16
scale, it is an even more impressive achievement of packaging and
performance optimization that could only come from Traxxas, The Fastest Name
In Radio Control®.
Some mini-models are "fast for a mini."
That's not good enough for Traxxas. The 1/16 Slash VXL 4WD is just plain
fast. At 30+mph with the included 6-cell NiMH battery, Slash VXL is
nearly twice as fast as most mini models, and faster than most electric RTR
trucks of any scale. Install a second 6-cell battery to unleash the Velineon
Brushless Power System's full fury, and Slash VXL jumps to over 50mph—all
with proven-safe NiMH packs. No other RTR truck, regardless of scale, makes
it so easy and affordable to experience this level of high speed and
wheelie-popping power.

All-new and built specifically for Traxxas 1/16 scale models, the VXL-3m
speed control and Velineon® 380 motor represent the latest in brushless
technology. Fully LiPo compatible with low-voltage detection for 2S and 3S
packs and rated for 6-12 NiMH cells, this potent, powerful combo gives E-Revo
VXL and Slash VXL 4WD precise throttle control and blistering top speed.
Patent-pending Training Mode™ lets new drivers hone their skills at 50%
throttle. When drivers' ed is through, full power and 50+mph is unleashed
with a touch of the EZ-Set® button. Big speed requires big horsepower, so E-Revo
VXL and Slash 4WD VXL carry the largest motor in the "mini" category.
The
Velineon 380 is built to the same no-compromise specs as the Velineon 3500
found in Traxxas' 70+mph 1/10 scale VXL models. High-speed ball bearings.
Sintered rotor. Neodymium magnets. Gold plated 3.5mm connectors. It all adds
up to 50,000 rpm of pure power and track-searing speed!
Now
a hallmark of Traxxas vehicles, Slash VXL 4WD is the latest model to be
equipped with fully waterproof electronics to keep the fun rolling in water,
mud and snow while lesser cars stay on the bench. The patent-pending sealed
receiver box houses Traxxas' newest 4-channel micro receiver and can accept
aftermarket receivers as well, without compromising the 1/16 VXL models'
waterproof properties. The new VXL-3m electronic speed control and
high-torque, digital micro servo are sealed against the elements giving you
the freedom go places other cars wouldn't dare to venture.

The 1/16 Slash VXL 4WD is fully assembled with TQ radio system, Velineon
brushless power system, painted and decaled body, pre-glued tires, and
detailed instructions. A Traxxas Power Cell NiMH battery and charger is also
included, making the Slash VXL truly Ready-To-Race®. Designed specifically
for the high-power needs of the Velineon brushless system, the potent Power
Cell pack features heavy-duty construction, 16-gauge wires and Traxxas'
exclusive High-Current Connector for efficient power transfer, run after
run. Traxxas backs the Slash VXL 4WD and all of our products with top-notch
support that is second to none. A staff of skilled representatives is
on-hand to answer your questions via phone, website, or e-mail. Unmatched
parts support allows the Slash to be serviced with parts and support from
thousands of hobby dealers worldwide. Your investment is also protected by
the Traxxas Lifetime Electronics Warranty. Traxxas goes the extra mile to
ensure that your R/C experience is easy and fun (and fast!). Follow the

benefits and also be sure to check out the videos page to see it in action
