This is the Traxxas Maxx Slash 6S 4WD Brushless Short Course Truck. Fully assembled, Ready-To-Race, with TQi 2.4GHz radio system, Traxxas Stability Management (TSM), VXL-6s brushless power system, and ProGraphix clipless body.
SHORT COURSE SUPREMACY
Traxxas rocked the world 15 years ago with the release of the Slash, launching a short course revolution and a generation of enthusiasts that have propelled Slash to become the best-selling truck in RC. Now, Slash is going even bigger. Traxxas MAXXed the Power, Size, Durability, and Excitement!
6s Power
Maxx Slash punches harder and faster with brutal 6s power and 70+mph speed. Low center of gravity and new belted tires keep it all in control.
Maxx-Sized Slash
Being big is good. Being the perfect size for maximum performance is best. Maxx Slash is the perfect size to power aggressively over the roughest terrain imaginable, yet it is still feels light, responsive, and agile.
Maxx Strength
The Maxx platform has already proven it’s synonymous with durability. The engineering on Maxx Slash continues to innovate, adding even more strength for critical 6s power handling and faster, harder-hitting action.
Belted Tires
Maxx SC belted tires limit high-speed tire expansion for a larger, flatter contact patch and game-changing precision and control. Tire uniformity is critical for stability, especially at the top of its 70+mph speed range.
Features
Engineered for 6s Power
From its inception, Traxxas engineered Maxx Slash to incorporate all the hallmarks of the legendary Slash, but infused with massive 6s power. Belted Maxx SC tires amplify the short course experience with incredible traction and 70+mph stability. An all-metal drivetrain and Steel-Core hybrid driveshafts give Maxx Slash all the Traxxas-Tough durability that made Slash famous.
Aggressive Short Course Body
Maxx Slash retains the unmistakable short course body style of its Slash lineage but injects it with a healthy dose of high-horsepower adrenaline. Wide fenders and sculpted lines give Maxx Slash a more aggressive look while rugged body reinforcements keep it looking fresh after a rough day at the track.
Adjustable Wheelie Bar
With the hard-hitting punch of 6s power on hand, an adjustable wheelie bar is required. Maxx Slash's adjustable wheelie bar maximizes traction and control during full throttle acceleration. Set it low to prevent lift during full throttle acceleration on hard surfaces, or set it higher to serve as a transparent backstop during high-speed, high-flying off-road action.
Waterproof Electronics
Maxx Slash is not limited by mud, snow, or water and neither is your fun. A sealed box protects the TQi receiver from water for all-weather driving. An easy-access port on top allows instant access to the receiver while retaining the box’s waterproof integrity.
Maxx Steering Servo
The powerful steering servo mounts solidly to the Maxx Slash chassis for enhanced support and impact resistance. With its proven durability in MAXX monster trucks, the digital, ball bearing design delivers 285 oz-in of torque for responsive and precise steering control.
Optional Accessory Lighting
Built to handle brutal real-world punishment, the Maxx Slash LED Light Kit (part #10290) is waterproof and built Traxxas Tough for maximum fun. Blaze a path through the night with this high-output LED light kit. The included high voltage amplifier packs the muscle to efficiently power the high-power light bar with a tightly regulated output for stable lighting performance, without flickering or dimming as the battery voltage changes.
Heavy Duty Bumpers
Heavy-duty front and rear Slash-style bumpers help protect critical components from impacts. The bumpers, combined with a short course body that covers the tires, allow for fender-to-fender contact for competitive and authentic racing action.
Shock Tower Design
Maxx Slash's integrated shock towers are part of the chassis and produce a rigid, triangulated structure to mount and protect the shock caps. Heavy-duty body mounts secure directly to the reinforced shock towers for maximum strength and impact resistance.
Fixed Mesh Motor Cradle
The motor and cradle join together to form a fixed gear mesh. A heavily reinforced mounting plate in the chassis keeps the motor and spur gear in perfect alignment. This innovative solution eliminates flex and greatly extends gear life.
Low-CG Chassis
The new chassis lowers the center of gravity and extends the wheelbase for responsive handling. A fighter jet aesthetic wraps around an engineered truss design that builds in strength and rigidity where it's needed most. Proven-tough Maxx bulkheads are tightly integrated front and rear.
Torque-Biasing Center Drive
Maxx Slash's Torque-Biasing Center Drive is tuned for maximum punch off the line with heavyweight oil for even front/rear power distribution. A heavy-duty aluminum housing helps dissipate heat for consistent performance as Maxx Slash delivers unmatched throttle punch and unbelievably quick acceleration!
