Traxxas Slash 4WD 1:10 RTR red with LED lighting

LED lighting

The model is newly equipped with front and rear LED lighting, for a breathtaking ride day and night. Thanks to this lighting, your model will become a real gem. High-luminosity diodes are not only effective, but also provide a strong stream of light. At the same time, the lighting provides a better overview of the model's position.

Modular chassis construction

The modular design allows the entire front section to be removed by loosening 5 screws and the rear assembly to be removed by loosening 4 screws. In less than one minute you have full access to easy service and setup.

Metal differentials

The new Slash is equipped with quality differentials with metal gears, which are ready for a possible upgrade to an AC drive. Precision seals with X-rings allow differentials to be tuned for specific operating conditions by changing the viscosity of the fluid in them.

Long shrug

The long stroke of the shoulders dampens even sharp impacts and improves the controllability of the model. In every situation, it will have a precise and quick steering response. Adjustable oil shock absorbers and X-rings are used on the chassis for endless fun.

Friction clutch

The friction clutch uses a special semi-metallic friction material and aluminum alloy pressure plates to dissipate heat and ensure consistent traction control. The clutch slip intensity can be adjusted without disassembling the model.

Servo steering

Digital servo standard size Traxxas servo 2056 6.2kg.cm waterproof with DC motor and nylon gears has a torque of 6.2 kg.cm and a speed of 0.20 s/60°@ 6.0 V. For water resistance*, the servo box is fitted with a seal.

Powerful Titan 12T engine

The car model is equipped with a modified Titan series 550 12T DC motor. The motor has 30% more power than conventional 540 motors. The rotor at the back of the motor contains a propeller that blows air into the motor and effectively cools it.

Traxxas XL 5 electronic controller

Waterproof* Traxxas XL-5 electronic controller with three driving modes, support for modern high-capacity LiPo batteries and easy control with the EZ-Set™ button. The XL-5 controller is equipped with a training mode that limits full throttle to 50%. Thanks to this, novice drivers or children can gradually familiarize themselves with the features of the model and prepare for the full power of the car. Thermal protection, gold-plated connectors and incredibly low internal resistance are the currency of this regulator.

XL controller modes 5

• 
  
• Sport : Default mode, forward, braking and reverse are possible.
  
• Race : Mode suitable for racing. Forward and brake is possible; reverse is not available.
  
• Training : Mode suitable for children or novice riders. It is possible to drive forward with a power limitation of 50%, brake and drive backwards again with a power limitation of 50%.
  

Traxxas TQ RC Kit

The model is controlled by a two-channel proportional steering wheel RC radio Traxxas TQ, working in the 2.4 GHz band - operation without interference. The transmitter is powered by only 4 AA cells.

There is a rotary knob on the transmitter that trims the wheel steering (so that the model is straight if the steering wheel is in the center position). The status of the batteries in the transmitter is indicated by an LED. The transmitter can be set to reverse on the throttle and steering channel (if you would like to use the transmitter to control other models).

TQ receiver

The Traxxas TQ 2.4 GHz three-channel receiver ensures safe driving without interruptions. Easy pairing with one button. Status indication by means of an LED diode.

Fast charger with automatic 12 V

The package includes a fully automatic fast charger for NiMH batteries at 12 V with a connector for a car socket. The charger allows you to charge 6 to 7 cell NiMH accumulators with a charging current of up to 4 A. Charging is completed using the Delta Peak method.

A 12 V power supply with a car socket is available as an optional accessory.

Recommended spare batteries

To extend the driving time, we recommend purchasing an additional battery. For regular riding and for children, we recommend buying one more identical NiMH battery, which is included in the package. For maximum driving time and higher performance, you can use modern LiPo batteries. If you use different types of accumulators, it is always necessary to set the type of the connected accumulator on the controller!

• 
  
• For normal riding, Traxxas 8.4 V 3000 mAh NiMH battery (flat).
  
• For regular riding with longer driving times, the Traxxas 8.4 V 5000 mAh NiMH battery (high).
  
• For maximum driving time Traxxas LiPo battery 7.4 V 5800 mAh.
  
  

Recommended Traxxas Chargers

Traxxas universal chargers can charge Traxxas LiPo and NiMH batteries. (The charger included in the package is intended only for the NiMH type battery that is included in the package.) Traxxas chargers are a simple and safe way to charge batteries. Traxxas uses the unique iD system , so you're always sure to connect everything easily and safely. There is an integrated chip in the battery connector, which the Traxxas charger automatically recognizes and sets all battery charging parameters for you. More information here.

Universal chargers for batteries up to 3S LiPo and NiMH

• Traxxas EZ-Peak 50W Single Output Mains Charger
  
• Traxxas EZ-Peak 2x50W mains charger with 2 outputs
  

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 prevent the screw joint from loosening. 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.
