Description

Based in Texas, Traxxas delivers the ultimate in RC performance, durability, and world-class support for years of fun. Traxxas has been engineering and building the world’s fastest and most innovative Ready-To-Race RC vehicles since 1986. Traxxas makes it easy for anyone to get started in RC with a full line of hobby-grade RC cars, trucks, and boats designed for easy maintenance and customization. Traxxas supports its RC vehicles with a complete line of spare parts, upgrade accessories, batteries, chargers, and pro-grade tools. Traxxas produces high-performance hobby-grade vehicles for users of all skill levels. Unlike disposable toy-grade vehicles, Traxxas hobby-grade vehicles are designed for easy repair and maintenance to provide years of fun. Traxxas maintains a complete line of replacement parts and performance upgrades to keep your investment in running peak form. These parts are readily available through hobby stores and online retailers. Traxxas supports your purchase with a full line of replacement parts and upgrade accessories. Whether you’re looking to replace a broken part or light up your ride with a full LED kit, Traxxas parts and accessories are built to the same tough standards as our vehicles. That means Traxxas parts and accessories are easy to install with helpful exploded views, instruction sheets, and how-to videos. There is no easier or safer way to charge your batteries than the Traxxas iD system. Just plug in a Traxxas iD-equipped LiPo or NiMH battery into a Traxxas iD-equipped EZ-Peak charger and press the Start button. That’s all there is to it! The iD system detects which iD-equipped battery you are using and automatically configures the settings for the optimal charge. Slash puts you in the driver’s seat for intense fender-to-fender short course racing action at the track, or in your own backyard. The rear-wheel drive Slash is purpose-built to fly over jumps and rip full-throttle through turns. Slash's fully adjustable track-ready suspension delivers most authentic short course racing experience possible. An 8.4-volt 3000 mAh NiMH battery pack pushes Slash to 30+ mph and beyond, paired with a fast 4-amp USB-C charger. Factory-installed Extreme HD suspension components are beefed up with extra material and reinforcing to keep you in the action, not on the repair bench. Slash’s tough clipless body snaps on in seconds with heavy-duty latches that hold firm no matter how rough the action gets. It’s convenience you’ll appreciate with every battery swap. Slash's powerful Titan motor and XL-5 speed control deliver 30+ mph speed and brutal acceleration with easy one-button setup and waterproof security. After nearly 20 years, Slash remains the best-selling truck in RC for a reason. Slash's unique combination of strength and durability are legendary. Big tube bumpers and thick nerf bars protect the chassis from impacts and keep the fun going. Whether you're banging fenders on the racetrack, sending it at the skate park, or jumping ramps in the cul-de-sac, you can count on Slash. Slash’s licensed BFGoodrich Mud Terrain T/A tires offer exceptional grip in dirt and just the right amount of slide on pavement with a realistic scale appearance. Slash’s oil-filled Ultra Shocks soak up huge jumps and hard landings for a smooth ride over the roughest terrain. The Traxxas TQ remote uses 2.4 GHz technology to provide long-distance control with smooth, glitch-free performance. Slash's Magnum 272 transmission and differential feature durable, all-metal gears with a Torque-Control clutch that’s easy to adjust.

Poor quality
Color: Blue
My son really enjoyed this, for 2 days. That's how long it took for the first part to break. He has only had this for a little over two weeks, and multiple pieces have broken (gear, steering piece, and a "blown" tire). He has only driven it on a flat, paved parking lot. With as expensive as this item was, I would've expected it to last a little longer. Very disappointed in this product. ... show more

Great gift for most ages ! and an amazing hobby to dive into!
This was a purchase for our 9 year old daughter for Christmas. She absolutely loved it. It is not kid- friendly if she needed to work on it, and she has adult supervision to charge the batteries. We have multiple slash cars as well and they are a family favorite.

Good Out of the box Suspension
Don’t get it from here unless you’re gonna be home to sign for it, because it’s Drop Shipped. What a nightmare because if you work a job, you won’t see it unless you get it sent to your work or somewhere you can sign for it, other than that It’s a good unit for the price. You can get a Brushless Arrma Fury for $40 more, and I have 2 of those, but I will say the suspension is very nice on this Slash. The brushed unit was good for my son doing ramps and hill jumps, because you can’t hit them with too much speed or it just goes end over end. I did make it brushless in about a week’s time to try it out, and it took a couple combos to make it awesome. I had the stuff already, but what I went with was Surpass Hobby 4500kv with the Rocket 90amp esc. I went up from 16 to 17T on the pinion and it’s 48p gear with 3.175 shaft hole. Works really well, but I think if I wanted to go to 18 tooth, It’d be tough to get the gears to mesh right, however they bolt holes are slotted. I just had trouble getting it to shimmy over. ... show more

As advertised, never been disappointed with traxxas products. The slash is the perfect beginner car or the perfect pallet to make something faster.
