Traxxas Rally VXL Racer

To add to its 1/16 scale VXL line-up, Traxxas has added the Rally VXL Racer, coming in October! Just like the 1/16 E-Revo and Slash, the Rally comes with a 6-cell 7.2V NiMh battery that allows it to race up to 30mph straight out of the box. If you want to hit those higher speeds, get a second battery and speed pinion gear and hit up to 50mph! To take advantage of those dual batteries, you can also purchase the Series Y-harness to get either higher voltage and thus higher speeds or the Parallel Y-harness to get more battery capacity and thus longer runtimes.

That incredible speed is courtesy of the Velineon 380 brushless motor and speed control. Designed by Traxxas specifically for the 1/16 scale versions, the Velineon system still includes the same incredible specs found in the VXL 1/10 scale models. The Velineon system also includes three modes: Sport Mode, Race Mode, and Training Mode. Training Mode allows you to practice at 50% throttle for both forward and reverse. Once you are confident in your ability to control this smooth machine, simply press the EZ-Set button and you get full brushless power.

The Rally comes with TQ radio system, glued-on tires, painted and decaled body, installed Velineon brushless-motor system, and the 7.2V NiMh battery with Traxxas' High Current Connector and charger.

Traxxas' New Titan: Coming in July!!!

Traxxas is bringing out an incredible new boat, the Titan, in late July! RC Hobby Explosion is taking preorders to ensure our customers get one as soon as Traxxas releases the Titan on the market.



Everything about the Titan means business: the super-rigid, 36-inch deep-V hull; smooth, cable-drive efficiency; innovative water cooling system; and precision aluminum and stainless steel drive controls. The clean, modern hull design is built up in layers for maximum rigidity where it matters most, the transom and ride pad. The integrated battery trays securely hold a variety of battery configurations—from the included 7-cell Power Cell NiMH packs to 3S LiPos. With an optional 6S LiPo, the Titan can race at 50+ mph across the waves! Ride trim is easily adjusted by positioning the packs fore and aft using the convenient hook and loop straps that secure the batteries. The optimized rudder configuration carves amazing full-throttle turns. A high-output 2.4GHz radio system with Traxxas Link™, along with water-cooled and waterproof electronics, keep Titan going for the trouble-free, all-day running you count on from Traxxas.

Titan is fully assembled with a TQ™ 2.4GHz radio system, Velineon brushless power system, applied graphics, and detailed instructions. Two Traxxas Power Cell 7-cell NiMH batteries are also included.

Traxxas' NEW 1/16 Scale Brushless E-Revo and Slash

Traxxas is set to release its new 1/16 scale 4WD brushless E-Revo and Slash. Appearing as mini versions of their 1/10 scale counterparts, the 1/16 E-Revo and Slash are anything but miniature in the power department.

Each comes with an included 6-cell 7.2V NiMh battery that allows the E-Revo and Slash to race up to 30mph right out of the box. If you're needing a little more speed, add a second 6-cell battery with a series connector (since they both come with a dual battery compartment), install the included "speed pinion," and blast to 50mph.

That incredible speed is courtesy of the Velineon 380 brushless motor and speed control. Designed by Traxxas specifically for the 1/16 scale versions, the Velineon system still includes the same incredible specs found in the VXL 1/10 scale models. The Velineon system also includes three modes: Sport Mode, Race Mode, and Training Mode. Training Mode allows you to practice at 50% throttle for both forward and reverse. Once you are confident in your ability to control this smooth machine, simply press the EZ-Set button and you get full brushless power.

Both the E-Revo and the Slash feature the unique combination of the functionality and performance of the Revo's suspension with the integrated chassis design of the E-Revo as well as the waterproof electronics that are now standard for Traxxas vehicles.

Both the Slash and E-Revo are truly ready to race: each comes with TQ radio system, glued-on tires, painted and decaled body, installed Velineon brushless-motor system, and the 7.2V NiMh battery with Traxxas' High Current Connector and charger.
