Traxxas E-Revo 1:16 VXL RTR Blue

Chassis

The proven chassis construction is light and strong at the same time. The tires are glued to the discs, the high-quality rubber compound of the tires ensures excellent grip on all surfaces. Adjustable Torque Control™ friction clutch ensures smooth transmission of power and smooth running at high speeds, and also reduces stress on the entire drivetrain. The GTR oil shocks feature an exclusive X-Ring to reduce friction with excellent resistance to oil leakage.

Dampers in the chassis of the model

The model uses a unique suspension system where the shock absorbers are safely stored in the chassis of the model. The swing of the arm is transmitted to the shock absorber using a tie rod and a rocker arm.

Oil dampers

This small RC model can also handle rugged terrain, thanks to GTR oil shock absorbers. The shock absorbers contain sealing rings that minimize oil penetration around the piston rod. The shock absorbers are fully adjustable, the spring preload can be conveniently changed with a nut on the shock absorber, the stiffness can be changed by changing the viscosity of the oils.

Gearbox with friction clutch

The single-speed gearbox on the model serves to increase the torque transmitted to the wheels. Part of the transmission is a friction clutch, which allows for nimble acceleration, but at the same time absorbs the impact of the engine, thus protecting the entire drivetrain of the model.

4WD drive through differentials

The model is equipped with a front and rear differential. This ensures that the power is distributed between the individual wheels like a real car. The tightness of the differential is determined by the viscosity of the oil in the differential. Therefore, the tightness can be changed if you change the oil in the differential to a thicker or a thinner one.

Servo steering

Digital mini servo Traxxas servo 2080A waterproof with DC motor and nylon gears has a torque of 3 kg.cm and a speed of 0.11 s/60°@ 6.0 V. For water resistance*, the servo box is fitted with a seal.

Powerful AC motor

The Velineon 380 AC motor provides the perfect balance between power and optimal efficiency. The high quality is due to the use of high-quality bearings and a neodymium sintered rotor. The rotor is perfectly balanced with drops of epoxy resin on the sides of the rotor.

Traxxas TQi RC kit with Bluetooth ready

Traxxas has prepared for you a completely new series of two-channel RC kits with Bluetooth connectivity. The Bluetooth module (sold separately) will allow you to connect the RC model with the clear graphic application Traxxas Link, which you can install on your smartphone for free.

The Traxxas Link app for Apple devices is available for free on the AppStore , the app for Google Android devices is free on GooglePlay .

The Traxxas Link App is a powerful application that gives you complete control over the operation and tuning of your Traxxas RC model with stunning visualization and absolute accuracy of settings. Traxxas Link can display telemetry data that the model provides in real-time, such as speed, RPM, temperature, battery voltage, and model roll. (Telemetry provided varies by specific model type). You can share settings of RC models, you can create any number of profiles for a specific track or users, e.g. children. All in the app with the brilliant graphics that come naturally from Traxxas.

Telemetry options vary by model. It may be necessary to install telemetry sensors to obtain telemetry data. Compatible telemetry parts with this model can be found in the "Accessories - Telemetry" section. More information on telemetry installation here.

Traxxas Stability Management

The Traxxas Stability Management (TSM) stability system allows you to experience not only power, speed, acceleration and cornering at extreme speed, but also guarantees much easier steering and control on slippery surfaces such as dust, smooth concrete or even ice and snow.

In the receiver there is a MEMS 3-axis gyro and an accelerometer, which evaluates the model's movement 100 times per second and corrects the model's direction of travel with appropriate interventions in the steering of the front wheels. Traxxas TSM does not limit engine power - you have 100% control over engine power. Algorithms are tuned for each model separately. The level of assistance is set using the multi-function controller on the transmitter or possibly in the Traxxas Link application.

USB-C charger

The package includes a NiMH battery and a modern fully automatic 20W USB-C charger. The charger allows you to charge 5 to 7 cell NiMH batteries with a charging current of up to 2 A.

The USB-C charger can be powered by any USB adapter and connected with a USB-C cable. However, for full charging performance, it is necessary to choose suitable components, see recommended accessories.

Recommended power supply for USB-C charger

Stand

Aluminum rotating stand with mat for 1:16 - 1:18 models will be a perfect addition to your service table or display shelf. The stand facilitates the maintenance of the model and at the same time prevents the deformation (stretching) of the tires during long-term standing.

Work mat

Work mat 91x51cm, for service of RC models and other modeling work. Prevents damage to the workbench, resistant to chemicals. Practical compartments for organizing parts and tools.

Accessories for normal operation

For normal operation of the Traxxas RC car, you need bolt glue, good quality tire glue, silicone shock oil and a set of screwdrivers. We recommend an affordable set of tools for cars from our range.

The thread or head of the screw is dripped with screw glue, which fixes it and the vibrations caused by driving will not allow the screw connection to loosen. The screw adhesive has a special composition that allows the screw connection to be easily loosened with an adequate torque without damaging the screw head. Never use ordinary instant glue, it might be impossible to loosen a screw stuck like this!

Tire glue is used to glue the tires to the disc rim. It is always necessary that the tire is firmly stuck to the wheel rim all the way around! If the tire is not glued all the way around, it may tear. Tire glue has a special composition that is able to glue materials such as rubber or nylon, and at the same time, after hardening, the glue is flexible. Never use ordinary instant glue - it is not flexible after hardening and cracks would gradually form in the tire around the rims!

Sometimes it is necessary to add silicone oil to the dampers of the model. During normal operation, there are only slight leaks of silicone oil on the piston rods of the shock absorber. In the event that the surface of the damper pistons or the condition of the seals is in poor condition, the oil leakage may be large. For these cases, so-called repair kits are supplied. In the range of tuning parts, piston rods with an extremely hard TiN (titanium nitride) coating are delivered to all shock absorbers. Piston rods with a TiN surface are easily recognized by their golden-green color.
