Characteristics
The 1:8 scale Traxxas Jato VXL-4S RC buggy model delivers high speed, durability, 4x4 drive and, most importantly, fun to drive. It features a chassis with a low center of gravity, precise suspension geometry and optimal weight distribution for agility and excellent driving dynamics. As a result, the Jato 4x4 handles with the precision of a racing buggy and provides all the user benefits and simplicity of Traxxas models. The model is powered by an extra powerful brushless motor with a VXL-4S controller and travels up to 96 km/h! It includes a clipless body for easy battery replacement, anodized aluminum parts and components for high durability - Extreme Heavy Duty . The TQi 2.4 GHz RC kit provides an additional portion of functions in the form of electronic TSM ride stabilization, Bluetooth connectivity and telemetry (a BT module is required for Bluetooth and telemetry - sold separately).

The new platform uses a modular design for easy service, the chassis is flat and the lower skid plates allow the model to slide on its belly. The strength of the spatial chassis is reinforced by the central aluminum T-Bar reinforcement with color anodizing. Excellent shock absorption is provided by the aluminum GT R shock absorbers , which contain a larger amount of oil compared to standard ones, exceptionally smooth and comfortable spring preload adjustment. Engine power is transmitted via a center differential, center shaft to the front and rear differentials with metal gears and via robust telescopic half-axles to the wheels. To reduce the model's roll when driving on the track, you can install optional transverse stabilizers (sold separately).
The VXL-4S controller with three driving modes provides all the telemetry that you can view on your phone (for telemetry, a Bluetooth module must be added to the transmitter, sold separately). The receiver contains exclusive TSM electronic stabilization technology, which helps with model control. Precise control is provided by the TQi transmitter with precision mechanics. Of course, a wide range of tuning parts is available, including complete spare parts.
News overview

Extreme performance VXL-4S
The Jato features the same Velineon 540XL brushless motor as the Maxx®. It is Traxxas’ largest motor for this type of car and is controlled by the new VXL-4s™ ESC with integrated telemetry and an adjustable BEC at 6.0 or 7.4V. Powered by a 4S LiPo battery, the model delivers incredible acceleration and speed.

Extreme Heavy Duty Components
Factory-installed Extreme Heavy Duty suspension and drivetrain components are made from the toughest materials Traxxas uses. Strength is further enhanced by an aluminum center brace and double-shear shock towers. The rugged driveshafts feature an improved universal joint mount.
Stability and control
The model's center of gravity is centered low, below the axles for perfect weight distribution and handling. Extra-long aluminum GTR shock absorbers front and rear maximize traction by keeping the new Response Pro Jato 4X4 tires in constant contact with the ground.

Stapleless bodywork
The unique body mounting system using beaks on the sides allows for quick and easy battery replacement and the clean look of the model is not disturbed by clips. The body has improved aerodynamics and eliminates the so-called parachute effect. The large rear wing provides the necessary downforce and at the same time protects the model in case of overturning.

Model construction

Chassis with low center of gravity
The chassis of the model is made up of a proven combination of a spatial structure with hexagonal elements and a composite nylon structure with individual components that fit together precisely. Thanks to the long wheelbase and wide track, the Jato provides stability even at high speeds.

Modular construction
Thanks to the modular design of the Jato 4x4, you can easily disassemble it into parts using just a screwdriver. Within a minute, you have access to all important components, model settings and service maintenance.

T-Bar chassis reinforcement
The Jato 4x4 borrows the Sledge's patented T-shaped 6061-T6 high-strength aluminum center brace that connects the front to the rear, adding extra rigidity and a beautiful appearance thanks to its color anodized finish. No ordinary tube can match the strength of this shape.

Sliding plates
Low-profile skid plates at the front and rear allow for long arm travel and protect critical drive components from damage. The plates also complement the clean lines of the chassis, which won't get caught on obstacles.

Long arm stroke
The long arm stroke absorbs even sharp impacts and improves the model's handling. It will have precise and fast steering response in every situation, thanks to maximum contact with the ground.

Suspension arms
The arms utilize a trapezoidal construction and are made from Traxxas' most durable material, which maintains its properties even in cold weather. From the racetrack to the skatepark, the Jato can withstand the harshest impacts.

Silencer towers
New, robust shock towers are reinforced to withstand a rollover. The front tower is fitted with a shock protection cover. The pressure wing is mounted directly to the rear shock tower for extra rigidity.

Aluminum oil shock absorbers
The GTR shock absorbers with an aluminum body and Teflon (PTFE) coating represent the pinnacle of technology. Their diameter can hold up to 70% more oil than standard Ultra shock absorbers. The shock absorber is equipped with double X-rings to prevent oil leakage around the piston rod. The spring preload is conveniently adjusted using a nut.
Precision control
The front wheel steering mechanism is implemented by means of a Dual-Bell-Crank system, which ensures precise operation of the linkages to the wheels. The steering has an integrated cam servo-saver that absorbs shocks and protects the servo against overload. The connecting rods are one-piece and of ideal length for driving characteristics.

Battery compartment
The universal battery compartment holds a 4S 5000mAh LiPo battery for massive power and long runtime. To install a smaller 2-3S LiPo battery, use the included shorter post. The shorter battery can be placed further forward or back to fine-tune the center of gravity.

Pressure wing
A sleek low-profile rear wing provides downforce for increased stability at high speeds. Lateral vertical guidance generates additional downforce for improved steering response.

Waterproof* construction
The model uses a number of patented solutions that reduce the risk of water ingress to the electronics, such as sealing the receiver box, servos, or epoxy-encased controller electronics. This gives you the confidence to go for a ride regardless of the weather.

4WD drivetrain

Inter-tooth clearance
A solid motor mounting system with pre-drilled holes according to the gear ratio eliminates the need to worry about setting the correct gear clearance. The gears always fit together precisely for maximum efficiency and long service life.

Center differential
The center differential absorbs engine shocks and distributes power between the front and rear axles. Unlike traditional differentials, even when some wheels slip, it still delivers power to all wheels.

Metal differentials
The Jato is equipped with high-quality metal-geared differentials that are fully prepared for the power of AC drive. Precision X-ring seals allow the differentials to be tuned for specific operating conditions by changing the oil viscosity.

Robust gear teeth
The gear toothing module of 32DP means that the steel teeth are large and durable enough for the engine power and drive of the VXL-4S.

Maxx-Duty axles
The driveshafts with reinforced universal joints are made to handle the power of the brushless motor without any problems. The 6 mm output shafts are connected to 17 mm driveshafts.

17 mm aluminum drivers
The 17mm aluminum wheel carriers create a large contact area for power transfer to the wheels. Their grooved design further enhances durability. The carriers are compatible with most standard 1:8 wheels.

Ball bearings
Large ball bearings are used throughout the drive system for smooth operation. The bearings are equipped with a plastic cover to minimize dirt entry. This solution extends the life of the model and simplifies maintenance.

Response Pro 3" wheels and tires
The unique look of the model is given by traditional 3" Buggy wheels with Response Pro tires. The 4.5" tires have a soft S1 compound for high grip.
Buggy body

Stand
The aluminum rotating stand will be the perfect addition to your service table or display shelf. The stand makes it easier to maintain the model and at the same time prevents deformation (sag) of the tires during long-term parking.

Work mat
Work mat 91x51cm, for RC model servicing and other model work. Prevents damage to the workbench, resistant to chemicals. Practical compartments for organizing parts and tools.

Accessories for normal operation
For normal operation of your Traxxas RC car, you need screw glue, quality tire glue, silicone shock absorber oil and a set of screwdrivers. We recommend an affordable car tool set from our range.
Screw glue is applied to the thread or head of the screw, which fixes it and prevents the vibrations caused by driving from loosening the screw connection. Screw glue has a special composition that allows the screw connection to be easily loosened with an appropriate torque without damaging the screw head. Never use ordinary superglue, a screw glued in this way may be impossible to loosen at all!
Tire glue is used to glue tires to the rim of the wheel. It is always necessary that the tire is firmly glued to the wheel rim around the entire circumference! If the tire is not glued around the entire circumference, it may burst. Tire glue has a special composition that is able to glue materials such as rubber or nylon and at the same time the glue is flexible after hardening. Never use ordinary superglue - 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 model's shock absorbers. During normal operation, only slight silicone oil leaks occur along the shock absorber piston rods. If the surface of the shock absorber piston rods or the condition of the seals is in poor condition, the oil leak can be large. So-called repair kits are available for these cases. The tuning parts offer includes piston rods with an extremely hard TiN (titanium nitride) coating for all shock absorbers. Piston rods with a TiN coating can be easily recognized by their golden-green color.
