Is the traxxas rustler vxl brushless rc car any good?

im interested in getting an electric rc car. im thinking of a stock slash or a rustler vxl. im only interested in the stock slash cuz i hear alot about durability and the water proof engine etc. but im also interested in getting the rustler vxl because i can get it pretty cheap and it sounds like a good fast car. but is it durable? give me some pros and cons about it? what kinda maintenance is needed?

i would get rustler xl-5 over vxl. reason being is that unless you want to dump $100 on a lithium charger and over $100 per battery pack, it is too expensive. the rustler, slash, and stampede are all very durable. i never broke a single part on my stampede and that was with letting my non rc friends try and crash into things. i had a xl-5 stampede which i sold after a year intending on getting a vxl, but then i realized that it wasnt gonna be much faster if i used the same batteries, i would have to invest a couple hundred dollars in batteries, instead i bought a team losi aftershock(1/8 scale nitro monster truck)

in case you didnt know, the rustler and stampede are nearly the same.

the slash, rustler, and stampede are all waterproof in xl-5 form. if i were you, i would get an xl-5 vehicle and buy a couple 7-cell packs. i believe that you have to have 7 cell hump packs on the stampede and i assume it is the same on the others but im not sure. i only had 6cell packs and felt it needed just a bit more power. try to get 7 cell packs that are close if not above 400mAh

Pros for vxl:extremely fast with correct batteries, car itself isnt too expensive
Cons for vxl: expensive batteries, expensive charger, you need some experience to control an rc car going upwards of 60 mph

Pros for xl-5: inexpensive car, reasonable batteries, reasonable charger, WATERPROOF, beginner friendly.
Cons for xl-5: ummmmmmmmmmmmm, after a year it may seem slow but if you have 7 cell battery its ok.

i dont know about vxl maintenence but i had to adjust gear mesh 2 times on my stampede but that is very easy to do. it doesnt get too dirty because it is electric

How can i make my new Traxxas Slash Brushless 4X4 4WD RTR run faster.?

it is completly stock: Pinion/spur 13/54, battery is a 7-cell NimH 8.4V 4000+mAh

You can either change the pinion or spur to a higher tooth count. It would be easier to try the pinion first rather than disassembling more of the truck & changing the spur. I wouldn’t go to crazy like going to a 19 to start off. I’d probably try a 15 & see how much speed you get & how much run time you lose. I’ve killed a few motors & esc’s going with too high of a jump on teeth. You might be able to get a faster motor but most are matched to the esc ratings.

can i use a rear jato shock tower on my xl5 electric traxxas rustler?

i am trying to trick out my rustler with vxl, a new body,some rims(wheels), road tires , and some lipo batteries and a couple of chargers. i cant seem to find a rustler body shaped like a chevy truck. they have them for jatos but they have 2 holes. a rustler shock tower only has one hole in the center of the truck bed. so i thought i might purchase a rear jato shok tower so the body will fit. i just didnt know if i could do that. if anyone knows, i would appreciate it if they could let me know!

It depends…
Try it out, and if it doesn’t work…
talk to your local hobby shop… they will have a better response.

Radio Controlled Car Manufacturers: Who’s Who in the Industry

Genuine basketball enthusiasts are aware of the significant role played by Wilt Chamberlain in the sport. If you wish to be able to have more fun with your radio controlled cars, knowing the history of RC cars will enable you to better appreciate what you have now.

Tamiya Goes First

This Japanese toy company was better known for producing plastic or die cast toys. In 1976, however, Tamiya was the first to produce toy cars that were defined as “suitable” for remote control. The prototypes of RC cars were crudely built, but they still sold rapidly.

Afterwards, Tamiya was able to improve and innovate by focusing less on scaling and more on the toys’ radio control feature. The new RC cars produced by the Japanese toy giant were better looking, tougher, customizable, easy to repair, and with more powerful engines. These RC cars sparked worldwide interest in the hobby. Classic products from the Tamiya RC car product line include the Blackfoot and the Hornet.

Schumacher Makes a Difference

The UK firm Schumacher made a splash in 1980 by introducing the use of ball differentials in RC cars. This improvement allowed RC car hobbyists to enjoy quicker and smoother maneuvering on and off the track. In 1986, it produced the all-powerful Competition All Terrain (CAT) vehicle, a recipient of numerous World Championships.

Associated Electrics Powers Out

In 1984, this company, based in Costa Mesa, California, manufactured the RC10 off-road electric racer. It was the first RC car that Associated Electrics produced which did not use nitromethane-powered engines and was not for on-road use. An RC car that’s built to last and endure, the RC10 had a sleeker design, was made from non-corrosive, aircraft-grade aluminum alloy, and with powerful shock absorbers and differential featuring. Its design and features quickly made it the electric king of off-road competition.

Go, Team Losi, Go!

Gil Losi Jr. was born to a racing family which owned the famous Ranch Pit Shop R/C racetrack in California. Upon establishing Team Losi, Gil created the JRX-2, a buggy that was immediately set in competition against the RC car of Associated Electrics. Team Losi’s also credited for being the first to use all-natural rubber tires and creating a whole new RC car category: the 1/18 scale Mini-T electric vehicles for off-road use.

Other important RC car manufacturers are the U.S. based Traxxas and the Japanese firm Kyosho.

These fine old companies continue to dominate the racing scene up to the present. Racing any of their cars will instantly make you part of the great history of the RC car industry.

Traxxas Slash 4×4

The Traxxas Slash 4×4 sports a design like no other on the market.  While modern and innovative, it is engineered to be simple and easy to use.  The radio system features the convenience of simply switching the vehicle on and driving it.  Once it is on, you can race it, jump it or do whatever tricks you devise.

In addition to simplicity, it was also designed to be versatile for use both on and off of the track with its rigid chassis.  With its high ground clearance and powerful 4-wheel drive system in addition to the racing suspension, this radio controlled vehicle has the traction required for its brushless horsepower to take you to speeds of over 60 miles per hour.

With the optimal placement of the components in the chassis, there is a balanced weight bias from both the front to the back bumper and side-to-side which enhances the Slash 4×4’s performance.  This optimally placed center of gravity is designed for smooth handling while cornering.

In terms of power, the Velineon Brushless Power System delivers what you need.  Its design is optimized for both power and speed via components that work together.  With its optimal efficiency and speed is the Slash 4×4’s precision throttle response and control.  For an experienced racer, these capabilities can give you an edge over the competition.

For a beginner, the simple on/off feature and ease of use is attractive.  When learning how to operate your Slash 4×4, the training mode option makes it easy via hands-on usage how to use your radio controlled vehicle.  This mode reduces the power by 50 percent thus allowing anyone the ability to take the wheel.

Obstacles are no challenge for the Slash 4×4 with its 2.5 inch ground clearance and 13.2 inch wheelbase.  Underneath the vehicle it is very smooth to cut down on drag and to keep from snagging any debris during operation.  You do not have to worry about water, mud or snow as the electronics on board are waterproof and the BF Goodrich Mud-Terrain tires can keep you rolling. You can go wherever you want when you want.

Another important feature of your Slash 4×4 is the long range radio system that works to eliminate any frequency conflicts that may impede your performance.

All you need is just a screwdriver to service your vehicle.
