Characteristics
Traxxas Ford Fiesta ST Rally VXL RC car model with licensed bodywork in the style of popular rally races. It is built on the proven Slash chassis with 4x4 drive and is therefore suitable for hard surfaces such as asphalt, but also for terrain or lower grass. The 1:10 scale model is powered by high-performance components - the VXL-3S AC motor and controller, which provide stunning acceleration and speeds of up to 96 km/h . For confident driving even at higher speeds, the Ford Fiesta includes TSM electronic ride stabilization. In addition, the model is equipped from the factory with an Extreme Heavy Duty kit for high durability and an exclusive clipless body clamping system.
The excellent chassis design has been retained, including modular construction, cutting-edge long-travel suspension geometry, friction clutch drivetrain and front and rear differentials. Thanks to the 4WD drive and AC drive, you will experience countless hours of perfect handling and lightning-fast acceleration.
The regulator with three driving modes guarantees fun for adults and children, thanks to the possibility of limiting the power to 50%. Precise control is ensured by a fast digital servo. The 2-channel RC kit allows the addition of telemetry and an optional Bluetooth module for connection with a phone (telemetry and BT module are sold separately). A wide variety of tuning parts are available, including complete spare parts.
News overview
Extreme performance with the VXL-3s
Extremely powerful drive with alternating Velineon 3s motor, provides maximum acceleration, speed and sensitive throttle control. For full brutal performance use a 3S LiPo battery, for beginners and children you can choose a 2S LiPo battery.
Extreme Heavy Duty kit installed
The Factory Installed Extreme Heavy Duty Kit on the Rally Ford Fiesta replaces key drivetrain and suspension components with upgraded parts built for maximum strength and durability.
Clipless bodywork
The unique body attachment system using beaks on the sides of the model (at the thresholds), allows quick and easy battery replacement, and the clean look of the model is not disturbed by clips.
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.
Chassis
The chassis of the model made of durable composite nylon is equipped with a long wheelbase and a lowered center of gravity for greater stability. On the underside, the chassis is smooth, so that it does not trip over bumps. The weight was also optimally distributed, where the majority of the mass is stored along the line of the chassis. Side Nerf reinforcements add extra lateral resistance.
Metal differentials
The new Ford Fiesta is equipped with quality differentials with durable metal gears. Precision sealing with X-rings allows differentials to be tuned for specific operating conditions by changing fluid viscosity.
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 are used on the chassis for endless fun.
Steel steering linkage
Durable steering rods with a 4 mm diameter steel center rod, allow changing the camber and toe settings of the wheels using a flat wrench. You can thus perfectly tune the behavior of the model to your liking.
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.
Oil dampers
The long stroke Ultra Shock oil shocks are designed to absorb every impact. Double sealing X-rings ensure smooth operation without oil leakage. The properties of the shock absorbers can be changed by preloading the springs, or by replacing the springs with other ones, and the behavior of the shock absorbers can also be adjusted by changing the viscosity of the oil used.
Precise steering
The mechanics of turning the front wheels is realized by means of the Dula-Bell-Crank system, which ensures the precise movement of the rods to the wheels. The steering has an integrated servo-saver that absorbs shocks and protects the servo against overload.
Maxx-Duty axles
Maxx-Duty half-axles with reinforced cardan joints are designed to handle the power of the AC drive without any problems. Large 6mm output shafts for steel wheel carriers.
Rally wheels and tires
The durable rally-style twelve-spoke wheels feature a 12mm dropper and the same offset as the wheels on the Slash 4x4 models. The tires have a unique directional pattern with high grip on and off hard surfaces.
Rally body

The 5-channel receiver is also equipped with two connectors for connecting telemetry sensors RPM (revolutions) and V/T (voltage / temperature).
Furthermore, a telemetry extension module can be connected to the 4-pin connector, into which you can connect up to 6 more sensors, including a very accurate GPS speed sensor.
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 for free on your smartphone.
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.
The receiver has a MEMS 3-axis gyro and an accelerometer, which evaluates the movement of the model on the order of 100 times per second and corrects the model's direction of travel by 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.

Other accessories
Carrying bag and backpack
Carry the RC model comfortably and safely in a Traxxas sports bag or backpack. In addition to the main large pocket for the model, there are specially designed side pockets for batteries, charger, tools, etc.
Stand
The aluminum swivel stand will be the 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 prevent the screw connection 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 would gradually create cracks 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.
