 Traxxas
High-Current Connector

 Ball-Bearing
Transmission With Slipper Clutch
1/16 Slash VXL 4WD's high-efficiency, heavy-duty transmission is built for
brushless power. An adjustable slipper clutch lets you tailor power delivery to
suit the terrain and your driving style, and precision ball-bearings make
certain every watt of Velineon power is turned into pure speed.
 Sealed
Silicone-Filled Differentials
An industry first! Only Traxxas offers the
superior power-handling and tuning capability of sealed differentials in 1/16
scale. The heavy-duty, steel-gear diffs are factory-filled with premium silicone
fluid to prevent unloading and maintain maximum traction and control. It's a
Traxxas innovation you won't find on any other mini-model.
 Pivot
Ball Suspension
1/16 Slash VXL 4WD feature pivot-ball suspension for smooth suspension
articulation and easy adjustment. Rubber-sealed ball bearings ward off dirt and
debris as they increase precision and reduce friction, and the oversized 8x12mm
inboard bearings maximize durability. For extra security, the heavy-duty axle
carriers are designed so the universal-joint axles' crosspins are captured by
the inner bearings—another example of Traxxas' attention to every detail.
 Universal-Joint
Driveshafts
1/16 Slash VXL 4WD is fully equipped with telescoping, universal-joint
axles for optimum drivetrain efficiency and maximum power transfer. The
true-curvilinear spline design operates freely, and the oversized U-joints set
the standard for strength and high-power durability.
 Waterproof
Electronics
Mud. Water. Snow. 1/16 Slash VXL 4WD's waterproof electronics and fully sealed
receiver box let you make tracks in conditions that leave other trucks parked at
home. Traxxas' innovative, ground-breaking waterproof receiver box puts 1/16
Slash VXL 4WD in a league of its own. The antenna and servo wires route neatly
through a special watertight seal (patent pending). To protect the receiver from
dust and water a custom shaped blue O-ring seals the receiver box. Thanks to the
unique design, the receiver can be removed for service and even aftermarket
receivers can be used, without losing the sealing properties of the box.
 Four
Channel Micro Receiver
Traxxas' 4-channel micro receiver provides reliable reception as it saves
weight, and dual channel-1 inputs allow you to install dual steering servos
without the need for a bulky Y-harness. The receiver is fully protected from the
elements by 1/16 Slash VXL 4WD's waterproof receiver box.
 Digital
High-Torque Waterproof Steering Servo
Small but powerful, the 1/16 Slash VXL 4WD's 2080 servo
cranks out 41.7 oz.-in. of tire-turning torque with digital circuitry for
responsive control—even in water, mud and snow, thanks to its o-ring-sealed
waterproof construction.
 All-Terrain
Tires & Wheels
Designed for all-terrain action, each corner of the 1/16 Slash VXL 4WD is
equipped with soft-compound tires that are mounted and pre-glued on impressive
beadlock-style wheels. The tires deliver the perfect balance of forward traction
and side bite on asphalt, dirt, and any other surface you throw at them. 12mm
mounting hexes open the door to additional wheel and tire combos to tune
traction for specific surfaces—even foam tires for carpet racing.
 Dual
Battery Compartments
1/16 Slash VXL 4WD already blows the rest away with its 30+mph out-of-the-box
speed using the included 6-cell Power Cell NiMH battery pack—but that's just the
beginning of 1/16 Slash VXL 4WD's speed story. The chassis' dual battery
compartments let you add a second NiMH battery pack and
Traxxas series connector (both sold separately) for 14.4 volts of power.
Install the included "speed pinion," and top speed jumps to 50+ mph. All of this
incredible performance comes with safe, inexpensive NiMH power!
 Traxxas
Power Cell Series 1 NiMH Battery Pack
The 1/16 Slash VXL 4WD is fully assembled and Ready-To-Race®, right
down to the included Power Cell battery and wall charger. Designed exclusively
for Traxxas' 1/16 models, the Power Cell Series 1 pack features heavy-duty
construction, flexible silicone-jacketed wires and Traxxas' High Current
Connector for positive plug-in with zero-loss efficiency.
 Quick-Release
Battery Doors
1/16 Slash VXL 4WD uses an innovative solution for easy battery installation.
Quick release doors snap open and closed in seconds for fast and easy battery
loading. There are no clips to lose in the field and the potential for fast
battery changes during pit stops opens the door for a whole new class of
electric short-course truck racing.
 Battery
Cooling Vents
Artfully designed intakes and exits allow cooling air to circulate through the
battery enclosures to lower the temperature of the batteries for maximum
run-time and "punch." Nothing was overlooked in carrying over all the design
innovation of the ultimate E-Revo chassis platform.
 Progressive
Rate Travel
Innovative linkage-based suspension geometry multiplies suspension travel and
increases spring and damping rates as the shocks are compressed for instant
small-bump compliance without compromising shock-absorbing performance for big
hits.
 Oil-Filled
GTR Shocks™
1/16 Slash VXL 4WD's super-smooth oil-filled shocks damp the suspension and
maintain control no matter how rugged the terrain. They are fully tuneable and
include pressure bladders for air/oil separation and threaded spring pre-load
collars for quick ride height adjustments.
 Revo-Spec
Suspension
The unique Revo®-Spec suspension geometry multiplies the suspension
travel to lengths normally found on larger models. It provides true progressive
rate performance that's light over the small bumps and instantly tightens when
compressed to resist bottoming out over large jumps.
 ProGraphix®
Painted Bodies
No need for a paint or sticker session; 1/16 Slash VXL 4WD rolls out of the box
ready for action with a factory-finished and mounted ProGraphix body and decals
already applied for you, so its Ready-to-Race®. Traxxas 1/16 Slash
VXL 4WD Prographix bodies are available in the Traxxas red theme as well as
three race replica versions: Scott Douglas/Mike Oberg Edition (Amsoil®),
Rick Huseman Edition (Fabtech®) and Jerry Whelchel Edition (Chett
Huffman Motorsports).
 Rubber-Sealed
Ball Bearings
Precision rubber-sealed bearings offer the ultimate in low-friction performance
and maximum protection in dirty environments. They are used in all exposed
locations on the truck and are virtually maintenance free.
Hex Hardware
Pro-quality, high-grade, metric hex-drive hardware is used throughout for extra
strength, and easy maintenance and repair. The black-oxide rust-resistant finish
provides a high-tech look and feel.
TQ Radio System
The included TQ radio system includes a high-power transmitter with a specially
designed comfort grip, a precise high-torque steering servo, and a compact
receiver. The perfectly balanced TQ transmitter features servo reversing, a low
battery indicator, electronic trim control, and it is digitally proportional for
precise steering and throttle control.
