Company history
Traxxas was founded in 1986, with the aim of offering fully assembled hobby-level radio controls that can be run straight from the box with little or no assembly, a new idea at the time. Traxxas started offering models as "Ready-to-Run" or "RTR", but now refers to these models as "Ready-To-Race". Starting in 1987, Traxxas began selling a series of electric-powered stadium trucks and train models. In 1989, Traxxas released its first radio-control vessel, Villan IV. In 1992, Traxxas released the first RTR nitro model, Nitro Hawk. In 1996, Traxxas released the first RTR nitro boat model, Nitro Vee. In 1999, Traxxas released the first full-size monster truck model, the T-Maxx. In November 2012, Traxxas launched its first aircraft product, the ready-to-use DR-1 Helicopter and QR-1 Quadcopter. In 2015, Traxxas released its largest monster truck to date, X-Maxx, and also debuted their Self-Righting technology.

Overview
The radio controlled vehicles Traxxas come fully assembled and "Ready-to-Run". However, Traxxas refers to their vehicle as "Ready-Race". The electrical model has a sealed electronic feature that allows it to run in wet conditions. The electrical models are offered in brushed or brushless versions and most include Traxxas Power Cell battery and Peak Detecting Fast Chargers. The nitro model also includes batteries and chargers to support the EZ start system. The Nitro model is supported by Pro.15, TRX 2.5 Racing Engine, or TRX 3.3 Racing Engine.
Depending on the model, it will come with a 2.4 GHz 2.4 TQ radio system or a 2.4 GHz TQi radio system. Some models also feature the Wireless Link Traxxas Module and Telemetry sensors for tuning and tracking vehicle performance. Some models of slash short course trucks feature an exclusive Traxxas On-Board radio system. Some models of brushless and high-end nitro models feature Traxxas Stability Management. The Self-Righting feature works with X-Maxx, E-Maxx, and Stampede 4X4 VXL models.

Model bashing off-road saat ini
The largest segment in the Traxxas lineup is an all-terrain/off-road bashing vehicle.
Maxx Truck
The Maxx family consists of several models originally based around T-Maxx released in 1999.
- T-Maxx Classic
In 2008, Traxxas introduced the next revised version, then, T-Maxx 2.5. Now called T-Maxx Classic. Changes are limited to new paint schemes, smoothly revised graphics, and new wheels and tires (the same is used on T-Maxx 2.5R). T-Maxx now comes standard with a 2.4 GHz radio system.
- T-Maxx 3.3
T-Maxx 3.3 is very similar to T-Maxx 2.5R, but there are some differences. The largest is the larger and more powerful TRX 3.3 Traxxas nitro engine. Another difference is the chrome mirror version of the 3.8-inch 2.5R wheels, Talon tires "all-terrain" (first used on Revo), wheelie bar, and different body paint schemes. It has a claimed top speed of 45 MPH.
In 2008, Traxxas introduced the revised T-Maxx 3.3. The new model features a new body, with paint and new graphics. It also features a new chassis with an extended wheelbase by 30 mm which features a new slip plate. Other features include a new "Hurricane" wheels, a new 6.3-inch all-terrain "Giant Maxx" tire (0.55 inches taller than the previous 5.75 inch "Talon" tire), a new double stage air filter, "resonator "new standard" Tuned exhaust pipe, and new high-torque digital steering servo.
- E-Maxx
E-Maxx is the electric partner for T-Maxx. It shares the same suspension and differential parts as the T-Maxx, but trades the central metal chassis for a composite tub built in a two-speed shifted transmission housing (now discontinued, emaxx currently has a 1-speed transmission), two electric motors sized 550, electronics and related batteries. The original (model 3906) E-Maxx ran on two 7.2 volt battery packs, using a total of 14.4 volts to run the system through Novak designed EVX ESC. The Novak is also capable of running two 8.4 volt batteries, for a total of 16.8 volts. Traxxas then complements the 3906 E-Maxx model with a waterproof EVX-2 ESC that runs two 8.4-volt batteries, and can also run LiPo batteries.
In 2007, Traxxas introduced the latest version of E-Maxx (model 3905). The model features a new extended wheelbase chassis, new transmission skid plate, new waterproof 16.8 volt EVX-2 speed control, sealed new differential, drive shaft, pivot ball, and ball bearings, a new dual-seater anti-air steering servos , waterproof receiver box, new steering linkage, redesigned bulkheads, new hex hardware, new single-reinforced speed, brushless ready-to-use transmission (2 speed transmission available as an accessory), Revo spec sprockets, new battery holders, mirror wheels chrome 3.8-inch and "Chevron" Tires, and new body with new paint and revised graphics. Both models have a claimed top speed of 30 MPH.
- E-Maxx Brushless Edition
At the end of 2009, Traxxas released E-Maxx Brushless Edition (model 3908). It features the same Castle Creations "NEU" brushless motor and "Mamba Monster" brushless ESC as E-Revo Brushless Edition. Other features include a 17 mm spline hub, a wheelie bar, a 2.4GHz Traxxas radio system, two high-waterproof digital steering camloons, heavy duty slipper clutches, a 640 "Maxx" tire, progressive spring water, black chrome wheels and bumpers, paint and new graphics.
In January 2014, the E-Maxx Brushless Edition comes with a water resistant MXL-6s resilient system.
- X-Maxx
By the end of 2015, Traxxas introduced their largest monster truck to date. The X-Maxx hit the scales at almost 20 pounds. It's almost 30 inches long and almost 14 inches tall. It was given a new waterproof/waterproof combo controller known as the VXL-6S brushless power system. Traxxas debuted the Self-Righting feature on X-Maxx. This feature allows the user to press a button on the trucked transmitter. The truck then swings itself back to all four tires. X-Maxx also features an entirely new chassis and suspension settings. Another important feature that debuted at X-Maxx is a clipboard system with no clips that use a latch system and not a standard body post and clip design. X-Maxx also comes with Traxxas Stability Management to help users maintain truck control in conditions where attractiveness is low.
Revo truck
- Revo 3.3
In July 2009, Traxxas introduced Revo 3.3 which has been revised further. The changes include a new body with new paint and graphics, a new dual water waterproof dual steering waterproof driver, a new 2.4 GHz Traxxas radio system, an enhanced two-speed "Optidrive" transmission, and two new suspension rocker suspensions. Also, the newer 3.8-inch offset "Geode" wheels increase the overall width by 1 inch and the new "Monster Maxx" 6.3 inch tires (lifted from the current T-Maxx) increase ground clearance by 0.25 inches to 4, 25 inches and overall height of 0.9 inches to 11.02 inches.
- Slayer Pro 4X4
The Slayer is a short-line nitro racing truck. This vehicle shares many parts with two Nitro Revos including suspension (except for a suspension arm, which is shorter and has only one push-rod push hole), a chassis of 2.5, and a 3.3 engine. Killer's body is bigger than a normal 1/10 scale vehicle; this moves the tire into the body rather than paste like other stadium trucks on the market today. Slayer comes stock of RTR with TRX 3.3 racing engine and has a claimed top speed of 50 mph. A newer version of Slayer released in 2010 to update the race replica style, Slayer Pro 4x4 has BFGoodrich Mud Terrain tires or Kumho Road Venture tires. Along with new tires, new shells are released to capture the latest TORC appearance. Extended wheelbase and longer A-Arms are added to make a short end race R/C race truck.
- E-Revo
In May 2008, Traxxas launched an electric-powered Revo version, called E-Revo. Electronic is identical to E-Maxx 16.8, consisting of a "Titan" 550, EVX-2 Waterproof ESC motor, and high waterproof torsional servos. The front and rear assemblies are no different from the original Revo, but the chassis is a plastic injection mold instead of a semi-monocoque aluminum chassis. Important features include a closed battery compartment with air intakes for cooling and full-length slip plates that completely enclose the transmission and central drive shaft. It also features a stadium truck-style body, not the body of a pickup truck like the Nitro Revo. Like E-Maxx 16.8, E-Revo is claimed by Traxxas to be watertight and safe to use in wet environments. It has a top speed of claimed 30 MPH.
- E-Revo Brushless Edition
In late autumn 2008 Traxxas introduced the Brushless E-Revo Edition. It uses the single creations of Castle Creations "NEU" brushless motor and the brushless "Mamba Monster" ESC in place of "dual titan" brushed motor and EVX-2 waterproof ESC on the E-Revo standard. Other new features include the Traxxas high battery connector and the new 2.4GHz Traxxas radio system (the old system is 27MHz). The highest claimed speed varies from 25 mph at 14.4 volts from 6-cell twin NiMH battery packs (7.2 volts each, not recommended by Castle Creations) and reserve gear ratio up to 65 MPH at 22.2 volts from twin batteries 3S LiPo (11.1 volts each) and optional high gear ratio. In January 2014, E-Revo Brushless Edition comes with a waterproof MXL-6s brush resistance system.
- Summit
The summit was introduced in early 2009 and is one of the latest models of Traxxas. It's meant to be an extreme field monster truck of Traxxas but not a real rock crawler and does not fit in with today's Stone crawler class. Many components are brought from E-Revo, including the main chassis and suspension and steering components, transmission components and main drive line, and EVX-2 waterproof ESC with Low Voltage Detection. The new components at this summit include a new 7 inch diameter "Canyon AT" soft tire all-terrain style with soft foam insertion mounted on the new 3.8-inch "Geode" beadlock style wheels, new front and rear remote lock differentials, articulation CV joints Traxxas' new "TQ4" 4-channel transmitter, and new LED lighting system 10 integrated to bumper with 4 white LEDs (for headlights) and 6 red LEDs (for tail lights). The summit is supported by one of Traxxas 'new 775â ⬠⢠Titan' ties mounted with a 775 high torque fan motor. The transmission is a two-transition unit with an ultra low 70: 1 first gear ratio (for low speed climbing) and 25: 1 second gear (for high speed off road) Another feature is the "Exo-Cage" integrated roll of external enclosure. Updates for 2010 include a 2.4 GHz TQ2.4 4-channel radio system. Updates for 2011 include the Prographix painted body, a 4-channel TQi 2,4Ã,î 4 channel system with available iPhone/iPod dock, and the addition of an EVX-2 electronic speed control version compatible with lithium-polymer batteries. Further revisions in 2014 update the radio to be compatible with Traxxas Wireless Link Module that can be used with Android devices, iPhone, or iPod.
scale model 1/16
- 1/16 E-Revo
The brushed version of 1/16 E-Revo features the Titan 12-Turn motor and XL 2.5 Electronic Speed ââControl as its power system. The chassis, drivetrain, suspension, wheels, tires, and body are split between the two models from 1/16 E-Revo.
- 1/16 E-Revo VXL
Released in late spring 2009, E-Revo VXL 1/16 is essentially a scaled-down version of the larger 1/10 E-Revo scale. Body parts, wheels, tires, suspensions and drive are all almost identical in designs with a 1/10 E-Revo scale, only scaled down. It is powered by Velineon 380 4000kv brushless motor and VXL-3m brushless ESC, both minimized versions of Velineon 3500kv brushless motor and VXL-3s brushless ESC used in Traxxas' 1/10th scale brushless vehicles. Some of the inevitable sacrifices attached to smaller scales include the lack of an optional two-speed transmission, lots of sealed rubber components, and dual steering servos offered on the 1/10 scale version. The top speed claimed depends on which battery pack is used. One 7.2 v NiMH package will reach 30 mph. Two packets of 7.2 v NiMH will reach 50 mph. One package of lipo 3o 11.1v will reach 50 mph.
- 1/16 Summit VXL
The Summit VXL 1/16 was released on November 1, 2010. It is a smaller version of the 1/10 scale summit without locking the diff, LED lights and dual steering servos. It's powered by a Velineon 380 4000kv brushless motor and a VXL-3m brushless ESC. Almost all the major components are shared with E-Revo VXL 1/16 with the exception of some suspension parts, wheels, tires, bodies and bumpers. The highest claimed speed is 25-40 mph depending on whether one or two battery packs are used. Optional optional front and rear lights are available, pre-drilled holes located in front and rear bumper.
- 1/16 Slash 4X4
Released in late spring 2009, The Slash VXL 1/16 is a short-term electric truck Traxxas' 1/16. Despite having the same name as the 1/10 scale Slash, the design is completely different. The Slash 1/10 scale is based on a family chassis of a two wheel drive truck while the Slash VXL 1/16 is actually based on a smaller scale version of the Revo four-wheel drive family chassis, similar to that used on E-Revo VXL 1/16, and it's really more like a diminished version of Slayer, an electric version. Almost all the major components are shared with E-Revo VXL 1/16 with the exception of some suspension parts, wheels, tires, bodies and bumpers. The highest claimed speed is 30-50 mph depending on whether one or two battery packs are used.
Slash trucks
Short course Slash truck trucks are offered in two-wheel drive and 4X4 variants with brushless or brushless motors and standard chassis or low-CG (low of gravity).
- Slash
The Traxxas Slash was introduced in 2008 and is a 1/10 scale short-scale electric racing truck. The Traxxas model is equipped with Ready-To-Run (RTR). Slash shares many parts with Rustler, Stampede, and Bandit. Differences include an enhanced chassis (though not as high as Stampede's) which is also longer, wider and rectangular, 4.3 inches (diameter) x 1.7 inches (width) of all tire styles mounted on 2.2/3.0 inch wheels (Now point in rc truck only), although the first production runs do not sell with non-sc style wheels (2,2) traxxas believe it will save production to use the 2.2/3.0 design of the slayer, with a 12mm hex. Out-of-the-box this car has a TITAN 12 motor turn. Design 2.2/3.0 is to clean the components of the revo-spec cushion ball suspension, Traxxas high current battery connector, metal transmission gear, XL-5 new waterproof ESC, Waterproof 2075 steering service, 4 channel micro receiver, waterproof receiver box, adjustable rubber pads, sealed rubber ball bearing, nerf rods, hex hardware, light duty rod drive, new battery holder, short-term truck-style bumper, progressive spring springs, and short-course short truck body trunk covering multiple tires features. The highest speed claimed is about 20 MPH.
- Slash
A step from the original Slash, this Slash model features the Racing Replica body. It features Titan 12-Turn motor and XL-5 Electronic Speed ââControl as its power system. It also shares the same wheel/combo tire as other Slash models.
- OBA Slash
At the end of 2014, Traxxas introduces its exclusive On-Board Audio system in OBA Slash. Samples are taken from a full-size Traxxas racing truck and are used to create an intuitive sound that responds to your throttle input.
- Slash VXL with TSM
The Traxxas Slash VXL proved to be a very popular choice for both novice and advanced drivers alike. Slash VXL receives factory-installed low-CG chassis and Traxxas Stability Management (TSM) that dramatically improves overall handling and performance across multiple terrains and conditions. TSM is particularly noticeable in low-traction situations such as wet or slippery concrete, loose dirt and gravel, and ice and snow.
- Slash VXL with TSM & amp; OBA
VXL Slash with On-Board Audio, Traxxas Stability Management, and factory-made low-CG chassis deliver realistic sound and advanced handling to the 2WD Slash platform.
- Robby Gordon Gordini Slash
Famous rider, Robby Gordon, who ran behind the wheel at NASCAR, a desert race like Baja 1000, and Dakar Rally had his Dakar racing rig changed to 1/10-scale by Traxxas in the form of Robby Gordon Gordini Slash. The Gordini Slash is based on Slash 2WD platform.
- Ford F-150 Raptor
In the fall of 2011 Traxxas released a clone of, then, the Ford F-150 SVT Raptor. Raptor is based on the award-winning Slash 2WD platform and features a realistic Ford Raptor body. In the fall of 2016, Traxxas released the latest version. Like the full-size Ford Raptor, the model dropped the SVT naming and only the Ford F-150 Raptor in 2017.
- Nitro Slash
Traxxas Nitro Slash debuted in December 2013. It is a two wheel drive platform using aluminum chassis and TRX 3.3 Racing Engine. Despite sharing some parts with the existing two-wheel drive model, for the most part, it is an entirely different truck. It uses a single speed transmission and features a larger fuel tank for an extended period of time.
- Slash 4X4
Released in 2009, Traxxas Slash 4x4, a four-wheeled racing car that is one-tenth, and equipped with the Traxxas tenth platform of the first platform since Jato was introduced in 2005. Contrary to its name, 4x4 Slash has almost no similar spare parts with two drive slashes wheel, and Slash VXL 1/16. The parts that are brought from the two-wheel drive Slash to the 4x4 Slash are limited to shocks, springs, and rear drive shafts and axle operator, otherwise Slash 4x4 is a completely new design from the ground up. The central chassis is a rectangular unit formed of gray plastic that displays triangular reinforcements throughout. It also has an independent four-wheeled double wheel suspension that is not the same as four oil-filled coils and progressive spring sprouts in staggered distance ("long" in front; "XXlong" behind). The new suspension will also be able to install the front and rear shake bars (available as Traxxas accessories). It is powered by the same "Velineon 3500" 10 3500kV brushless motor and "Velineon VXL-3S" non-waterproof 320 (rated burst) ESC brushless as the VXL 2-wheel drive family model. In February 2010 all versions of the VXL system were sold as waterproof, but 4x4 Slash did not bear VXL moniker like Traxxas' Velineon other powered models. The driveline design is very different from that shown in other Traxxas models. The motor is mounted longitudinally in the M4 layout that drives the instantly changing (non-transmission) spur driving lever, through the slick clutch Revo spec, the main one-piece aluminum drive shaft. The drive shaft sends forward and backward power limited to a viscous slip differential, which sends power to the wheels via a half-axle telescoping plastic. The 4x4 slash features an exterior appearance similar to a two-wheel drive Slash, including the same short-body body, bumper, nerf rod, and wheel. Other important features include BFGoodrich Mud-Terrain replica scales T/A tires with white letters, 2.2 inch satin chrome beadlock style "SCT" wheels, new heavy duty ball bearing system, high waterproof digital steering torso servo, Traxxas high connector current, 2.4Ghz radio system, and hex hardware are used all over. With a stock/ESC motor, the highest claimed speed is 35 to 65 MPH depending on the battery and gearing used. Traxxas also advertise Monster Creations Mamba Monster Brushless system (featured on E-Revo/E-Maxx Brushless Edition and available as Traxxas accessory) instead of a direct "drop" for Velineon stock system, and claimed to be capable of turning on 4x4 Slash at speeds exceeding 80MPH.
The usual complement of the original Traxxas accessories will be offered with 4x4 Slash including various aluminum upgrade sections, differential center, half-axle joint CV, bar shake, stronger coupling, Moga Monster Brushless system, and more.
- Slash 4X4 OBA TSM
Slash 4X4 with Exclusive On-Board Audio system Traxxas and Traxxas Stability Management is the latest version of the 4X4 model. It also comes with a Low-CG chassis that looks at Ultimate and Platinum and is available in the Rally.
- Slash 4X4 Ultimate
Slash 4X4 Ultimate is a step forward from the original Slash 4X4. The Ultimate uses a Low-CG chassis designed for the 4X4 platform. It also comes with a number of factory-mounted accessories such as aluminum axle carriers and steering blocks, telemetry sensors, sway bars, and GTR shocks. The Slash 4X4 Ultimate is built to be the balance between a race track race and backyard fun.
- Slash 4X4 Ultimate (LiPo)
This Slash 4X4 Ultimate version offers the same features as the standard Ultimate, with the exception of the included LiPo battery.
- Slash 4X4 Platinum
Not long after the 4x4 Slash standard was announced, "Platinum Edition" get ready was also announced. Just like Revo Platinum Edition, it does not have a body that has been painted, but includes most of the accessories available in Traxxas as stock gear. New features include large-bore aluminum shocks, differential centers, aluminum hubs and axle carriers, blue anodized aluminum axles, front and rear shake bars, and racing compound tires.
- Rally VXL
The 1/10 scale rally debuted at the end of 2012. Although the Rally is not a truck, at all, the entire DNA is shared with the Slash 4X4 family. Chassis, suspension, power system, and drivetrain all feature together to make the Rally easy to do and fun to drive.
Truck and buggy stadium
- Rustler
The Rustler was first introduced in 1994 and Traxxas' two wheel drive 1/10 scale electric stadium truck. The design is very similar to the previous Traxxas stadium truck. It features a 4-wheel independent suspension with 4 coilover shocks and a 2.2 inch wheel. This is supported by a 540 "Stinger" 20 revolved motor rotation and a fully-proportional 3-speed revolving mechanical speed control or ESC XL-1. It claims a top speed of 24 MPH. In 2006, Traxxas released Rustler XL-5. It featured major changes including the new "Titan 12T" 550 12 motor rotation brushed, the new XL-5 ESC, redesigned transmission, new tires mounted on larger 2.8 inch wheels, high torque steering servo, new ESC mount, Revo spec slipper clutch, select new gray parts, white springs, and new paint schemes and charts. It has a claimed top speed of 35 MPH.
In 2008, Rustler XL-5 received a Rustler VXL body with a different paint scheme.
- Rustler VXL TSM
In 2007 Traxxas introduced Rustler VXL. The new model has some improvements over the Rustler XL-5 standard. The biggest one is the "Brushless Velineon system" which consists of a 3500kV brushless motor 10 laps and a 320 ESC brushless (burst value). Other features include Traxxas high current connector with 12 gauge wire, hex hardware, covered rubber ball bearings, adjustable camber links, black chrome wheels, transmission steel gears, reinforced differential bearings, high torque digital steering servo, suspension fastening rods front fiberglass, and new low profile body, paint and graphics schemes. The highest claimed speed is 35 to 70 mph depending on battery and gearing settings.
In 2009, both Rustler XL-5 and Rustler VXL are now waterproof, featuring XL-5 waterproof ESC Traxxas (VXL3s waterproof brushless ESC on Rustler VXL), 4 channel micro receivers, waterproof receivers, and high-torque waterproof steering servo. (waterproof high digital torque servo on Rustler VXL).
- Nitro Sport;
Nitro Sport was introduced in 1998. Powered by Traxxas engine.15 and then a pro engine.15 It shares many parts with Nitro Rustler. Differences include a unique body and some simplified parts, used primarily to make the model more affordable. It is marketed as a novice nitro model.
In 2009, Traxxas introduced a further revised Nitro Sport which has the same 2.8-inch wheels and tires as Nitro Rustler and a new body similar to Nitro Rustler with new paint and graphics.
- Nitro Rustler
In 2007, Traxxas released the revised Nitro Rustler 2.5 (model 4407). The new model featured larger wheels (mounted on a 2.8-inch rim), a 2.4 GHz radio system and a new low profile Prographix paint profile, and claimed top speed of 50 mph (using optional gear). The engine is the same as the EZ-Start 2 with TRX2.5 and finally replaced with a better 2.5R piston arm design.
The 4407 model has been replaced with 4409 variants that have all the same features except the 2.4 GHz radio that has been replaced with the Traxxas Top Qualifier's two-channel FM unit, accompanied by a price drop. The current body color shows the Nitro Rustler radio frequency channel as follows: Silver/Red is A2, Red/Silver is A4, Blue/Silver is A5 and Silver/Blue is A6. This model has proven to be a very reliable and tough choice when it comes to bashing and has a wide selection of aftermarket manufacturers that offer stronger aluminum and composite chassis and suspension components, exhaust performance and more. On the other hand, some people argue that its handling is sub-par for racing circuits, although once the market can solve this problem.
- Bandit
The Bandra Traxxas were first introduced in 1995 and Traxxas' 1/10 two wheel drive buggy scale. It shares most of its parts with Rustler, including central chassis, motors, speed control, transmission (albeit with different gear ratios), rear shocks and shock towers, and radio systems. The differences include shorter front and rear suspension arms, camber and steering links, smaller diameter buggy styles and narrower wheels and tires, and buggy-style bodies with rear wings.

Current marine model
Currently there are only two marine radio control models on offer from Traxxas.
- Blast
Traxxas first introduced Blast in 1995 and it is a boat controlled by a single-radio-drive. This is a racing boat configuration with a long, very slim, high-performance "V" hull. It is powered by a water-cooled "Stinger" 20 rotary 540 motor brushed-sized and air-cooled (with heat sink) Nautica 8.4 volts ESC. Power is delivered directly (without reduction gear) to a single surface suppressor pro. It is controlled through the servo controlling the steering/prop.
In 2008, Traxxas released a revised Blast. New features include new waterproof versions of Nautica ESC, high waterproof torque steering servo, new sealed water receptacle box, new top hull (with a slim closed cockpit replacing the old open), Traxxas current high battery connector, new motorcycle labeling, and new graph.
- Spartan
Released in December 2010, Spartan Traxxas is a new drive Radio controlled boat. Spartan represents the new ship design of all Traxxas in a few years. Like the Villain series, this is a sport/power boat configuration with a long and slim "deep V" hull. Unlike the Villain series, the Spartan is significantly longer (with 9.8 inches) and has slightly wider rays (by 1.25 inches), which combine to give Spartan a much slimmer overall profile. Spartans also have many modern features that distinguish them from previous Traxxas ships. The most visible is the new Traxxas marine version of the Castle Powered Velineon brushless system, which comprises the new ESC VXL-6s brushless, and the Velineon 540XL brushless motor (1410 castle motor). Both ESC and water-cooled motors, with motors featuring a unique closed-air composite jacket that allows cooling water to directly contact the motor case, rather than simple circular metal water tubes used on other Traxxas vessels. The drive system is also a departure from a controlled driving system (prop and steering is one unit and steered together) traditionally used on the Traxxas vessel. In contrast, the power in the Spartan is channeled through direct drive (without reduction gear) to a single fixed surface support and the steering is controlled by an aluminum steering operated by a high torque waterproof servo. Spartans also use the 2.4GHz Traxxas radio system (the first on board Traxxas) with a 5-channel receiver located inside a waterproof box. Other important features include stainless steel trim tabs and changing fins (which help improve stability and change performance), Traxxas high current battery connector, 12 gauge power cord, and stainless steel hex hardware. Topspeed is claimed to be 30 mph (26 kn) with dual 8.4 volt NiMH battery included. However, the top speed rose to 50 mph (43 kn) with an optional 3S LiPo battery pack, which Traxxas claims is the fastest high speed for any RTR control boat boats (ready to race).

Old model
Here is a list of vehicles, some with details about previous versions, which have been discontinued or replaced by an upgraded model.
Maxx Family
T-Maxx uses a single aluminum chassis plate, which is supported under it by supporting beams. The suspension uses a fully independent dual A-arm design, powered by eight coils on top of shocks, two at each corner. The drive system consists of a 15 nitro Pro engine mounted in the center and a mid-mounted two-speed transmission that drives a permanent four-wheel drive system with no differential center. Large tires of 5.75 x 3.5 inch "chevron" are mounted on 3.2 inch wheels.
T-Maxx made its debut in 1999, picking up R/C hobbies and industry by storm.
In 2002, T-Maxx 2.5 was introduced. Revisions include an extended suspension arm and Traxxas' new, more powerful, nitro engine TRX 2.5.
In 2006, Traxxas introduced the revised T-Maxx 2.5, in addition to the new T-Maxx 2.5R and T-Maxx 3.3. The revised T-Maxx 2.5 displays minor changes that include new grayed parts and redesigned bulkheads and differential housings. It has a claimed high speed of 40 MPH.
The T-Maxx 2.5R features Traxxas' TRX 2.5R nitro engine, a new driveline similar to Revo's, with a Torque-Control slipper clutch on spur gear. It also includes new grayed parts and redesigned bulkheads and differential housings. The T-Maxx 2.5R includes a reverse Optidrive system (originally only on Revo) instead of the pure mechanical opposite to the original. The 3.2 mm thick aluminum chassis on the T-Maxx 2.5 is replaced with a more powerful 4 mm chassis. The driveshafts, pivot balls, and ball bearings are all sealed with blue rubber. The old 3.2 inch wheels are replaced with new larger 3.8 inch satin wheels with lower profile "chevron" tires. A new body paint scheme is also included. It has a claimed high speed of 40 MPH.
- SportMaxx
The SportMaxx model was introduced in 2003 and is based on the original T-Maxx 2.5. The two-wheel drive (which only removes the differential and the drivetrain to the front wheels) is used to save weight. The only forward transmission, one speed is used for the same purpose. Other differences include different bodies with unique paint and graphics and different wheels. It has since been discontinued, although any T-Maxx can basically be converted to SportMaxx by installing a Traxxas single speed transmission accessory and removing the drivetrain to the front wheels.
- S-Maxx
S-Maxx (or Maxx Stadium) was introduced in 2004 and is basically the same as the Maxx Sport, but features a unique racing body, paint and graphics, pre-geared trace-oriented tires and a two-speed transmission. It has a claimed high speed of 40 MPH.
This special edition Maxx truck is available only at Hobbytown USA outlets.
S-maxx is now available with TRX 3.3 engine and has a top speed of 45 mph.
Family Revo
The Revo family consists of several models originally based around Revo.
- Revo
Revo was introduced in 2004 as a complete redesign of the tenth-scale monster truck chassis with a more advanced and reliable design than the T-Maxx. Revo has become popular in racing, and is also suitable for bashing environment such as backyard or construction site. Important characteristics include a built-in push-rod suspension system with new "GTR" shocks and springs, a complex monocoque "aluminum chassis" that lowers the vehicle's center of gravity, a stronger transmission with an electronically controlled reverse feature, a closed, closed-slip differential, rubber pivot ball, drive shaft and ball bearings, 3.8 inch wheels and all tire styles "Talon", and the latest version of Traxxas' TRX 2.5 engine, TRX 2.5R. It has a claimed high speed of 40 MPH.
The new Revo version was launched with T-Maxx 3.3 in 2006, with the new TRX 3.3 Traxxas engine more powerful. Due to the demands of the owner of Revo, the chassis was extended 30 mm for more stability, and a motor mount area was created to prevent it from bending. Other minor changes include a longer body version with a new paint scheme to accompany stretching of the wheelbase, and new wheels. Additional enhancements are newly released, including the center differential, which helps transfer power between the front and rear differentials to improve handling, and the rear braking module to be used with the differential-center. It claims a top speed of 45 MPH.
In April 2008, Traxxas released a limited edition Revo Platinum. This comes with most of the Traxxas upgrades and tuning components usually available as accessories for the Revo 3.3 standard. This is intended as a factory racing version of the Revo 3.3 standard.
Then in 2008, Traxxas released a revised version of Revo 3.3. It incorporates some of the features seen on Revo platinum, including a dual exhaust pipe space "Resonator", a two-stage air filter, a larger capacity fuel tank, a "GTR" teflon aluminum shaft with a titanium nitride axle, a 17 mm spline wheel hub. As is typical of the new Traxxas model, Revo 3.3 is revised to receive a new paint scheme.

It's powered by the same TRX 2.5 nitro engine as Nitro Rustler but has many new high tech features, some borrowed from Revo, which sets it apart. One of the new features is a sophisticated 2-speed automatic transmission, which increases acceleration and top speed over a single-speed Nitro Rustler. The new suspension design is another new feature. These include the new "GTR" shocks and springs, borrowed from Revo, but are used in traditional configurations rather than the Revo push-rod configuration. The suspension also includes front and rear mounting points for optional sway bars, which are offered as Traxxas accessories in three different thicknesses. The suspension can also be fully adjusted for camber, caster, toe, anti-squat, and rising height. Other important features include 2.8 inch wheels and tires, limited closed slip differentials, rubber-covered drive shaft and ball bearings, steering assembly, Revo slipper specification clutch, and hex hardware. It has a claimed top speed of 55 MPH.
- Jato 3.3;
Neither Jato, as he came out of the box, was legal to race alongside more traditional stadium trucks in industrial sanctions events because his shares were two speed transmissions, but many local clubs allowed him to race. The Jato can be made legal by replacing 2-speed racing, wheels, and engines with the right replacements offered by Traxxas or 3rd party manufacturers.

Old flight model
The QR-1 and DR-1 are launched together at the end of 2012, Traxxas's first flying model utilizes the latest improvements in battery technology and motion sensing that now allow a useful amount of time in the air and the automation of basic flight stability. They use lithium-ion polymer batteries (LiPo), and micro-size gyroscopes and accelerometers similar to those developed for cell phones and game controllers to help fly pilots.
- QR-1
Quadcopter is mechanically simpler than a helicopter, but it has some advanced electronics on board to provide stability in flight. The QR-1 has four constant-pitch propellers, which rotate at different speeds to control the movement of the aircraft. The speed of the propellors is determined in detail by the firmware on the circuit board on the plane, which compares the control inputs of the pilot to the measurement of what aircraft actually do in the air provided by small gyroscopes and accelerometers also on the board. This setting allows automatic response to a sudden blow, and helps the pilot when in "expert mode" to flip and roll barrels.
- DR-1
Traxxas DR-1 has a dual-rotor coaxial design, with a flybar on top, which together with automatic gyro stabilization to make helicopters in the beginner category easy to navigate
