TRA58434-4RED Traxxas 1/10 Slash HD VX3 BL 2WD RTR - Red
Traxxas Slash® has defined short course RC racing for a generation. Now there’s a new Slash with even more power and performance. Slash’s new Velineon® 3s brushless power system transforms 11.1 volts of LiPo power into incredible 50+ mph speed with a new aerodynamic body to reduce high-speed lift. A new low-CG chassis delivers razor-sharp handling with revised suspension tuning for an ultra-plush ride. From the street to the track, Slash 2WD Brushless renders an authentic short course racing experience like nothing else.
Slash’s new Velineon® 3s power system is a brushless powerhouse that transforms 11.1 volts of LiPo power into brutal acceleration and 50+ mph speed, out of the box with no gearing changes required. The fan-cooled VX3 speed control is feature-packed and simple to use with Traxxas EZ-Set® one-button programming. The powerful V3200 motor is a model of efficiency with internal fan cooling for long run times.
Slash’s ultra-plush ride comes courtesy of new composite GTR shocks on all four corners. GTR shocks hold over 70% more oil than standard Ultra Shocks for consistent damping and a premium feel. X-ring seals keep oil in and dirt out for smooth suspension compression and rebound. Spring preload and ride height changes are as simple as turning the threaded collar and the spring retainers are captured with a screw so they can't pop off.
Slash needs a fast and powerful steering servo to match the quick reflexes and agile handling of its low-CG chassis. Slash receives a new metal-gear servo for superior strength and durability along with an improved bellcrank steering assembly. The bellcrank’s cam-operated servo saver enhances steering precision and protects the servo from impacts.
With a top speed of over 50 mph, Slash must fight the wind to maintain its high-speed performance. Slash’s new aerodynamic body cuts through the air and increases downforce to deliver incredible straight-line stability. Heavy-duty clipless latches hold the body tightly for rough-and-tumble action, but release in just seconds for fast battery swaps.
