Characteristics
The Rustler 1:10 HD RTR RC car model is powered by a Titan 550 DC motor and an XL-5 controller for powering 2S LiPo batteries. The model drives up to 48 km/h! Additionally, it is factory equipped with an Extreme Heavy Duty kit for high durability and an exclusive clipless body mounting system. Everything for operation is included in the package, including the transmitter, drive battery and USB-C charger.
The construction with a nylon chassis provides high strength, durability, and the model is light and agile at the same time. The proven Magnum 272 transmission with an adjustable friction clutch is used to drive the rear wheels. High traction is ensured thanks to the placement of the engine behind the rear axle. The excellent driving characteristics are due to the precise geometry of the suspension, and in combination with the long lift of the shoulders, you can overcome even more demanding terrain.
The regulator with three driving modes guarantees fun for adults and children thanks to the possibility of limiting the power to 50%. Control is provided by a TQ 2.4 GHz transmitter with precise control mechanics. Of course, a wide range of tuning parts is available, including complete spare parts.
News overview
Extreme Heavy Duty kit installed
The Factory Installed Extreme Heavy Duty suspension and drivetrain kit is made from the most durable materials Traxxas uses.
Clipless bodywork
The unique system of fixing the body with beaks in the wheel arches, allows quick and easy battery replacement, and the clean look of the model is not disturbed by clips. Unlike traditional posts with clips, the body fits the clipless holder with a much larger area and does not crack.
Construction
The chassis is made of nylon, which is filled with glass fibers for greater strength and toughness. The chassis is spatially shaped to have high rigidity. The engine with gearbox and differential is located at the rear of the model. The drive system forms a compact closed unit, which makes the Traxxas Rustler RC car model an undemanding model.
Gearbox, adjustable disc clutch and planetary differential
The gearbox, disc clutch and planetary differential are enclosed in one compact unit. A friction clutch transmission reliably transmits engine power to the axles, the Magnum 272™ planetary differential has gears made of hardened steel. This system requires absolutely minimal maintenance. There are pinions and sprockets with different numbers of teeth, so you can fine-tune the model for speed and technical tracks.
Friction clutch
The Revo Spec Torque Control friction clutch ensures smooth power transmission and is adjustable. A properly set amount of slip protects the drive train, while not reducing the acceleration of the model.
Oil dampers
High-lift oil shocks use dual X-rings for perfect sealing and perfect running. Robust design combined with high oil volume can absorb even hard impacts in difficult terrain. You can tune the dampers to your liking by adjusting the springs and changing the viscosity of the oil.
Wheels and tires
The Rustler rides on aggressive chrome 6-spoke 2.8" wheels. The unique Alias rubber compound provides high grip on a wide variety of surfaces including dirt, grass, concrete and rocks. The rear step-pin studded tires provide excellent off-road traction, while the grooved front tires it holds the driving track perfectly.
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 fitted with a modified Titan 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 steering (so that the model goes straight if the steering wheel is in the center position). The status of the batteries in the transmitter is indicated by an LED. Reverse can be set on the transmitter on the throttle and steering channels.
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.
USB-C charger
The package includes a NiMH battery and a modern fully automatic 40W USB-C charger. The charger allows you to charge 6 to 7 cell NiMH batteries with a charging current of up to 4 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.

We recommend to buy
To operate the model, it is necessary to add 4x AA batteries for the transmitter. We recommend powering the USB-C charger with a powerful USB adapter.
Recommended power supply for USB-C charger
Powering the USB-C charger from the mains requires a USB adapter and USB-C cable for connection (adapter and cable are not included in the package). In order to use the maximum charging power, it is necessary to choose sufficiently dimensioned components. We recommend:
- Traxxas network adapter USB-C 45W
- Traxxas cable USB-C 100W (1.5m)
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.
(LiPo battery requires Traxxas universal charger.)
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.

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 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. So-called repair kits are supplied for these cases. 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.
