MORE THAN 25 YEARS OF R/C INNOVATION
Fun Starts Here!
THE
FASTEST
NAME
IN
RADIO
Power, Technology, Convenience
Traxxas models are the
best-selling and most
award-winning radio
controlled (R/C) cars
and trucks in hobby
stores. We have been
building them like
this for nearly 25 years. Our
reputation for quality, performance,
and innovation is second to none!
The Best in R/C: Traxxas models are fully assembled and Ready-ToRace.® Years ago, Traxxas pioneered the concept of a high-quality radio
controlled kit that came professionally assembled by experienced experts
and Ready-To-Drive,® right out of the box. Hundreds of thousands of cars
later, Traxxas builds them better than anyone. We make models in all
price ranges, nitro and electric, that can match any need or experience
level. No matter which one you buy, each is a great entertainment value
that’s loaded with fun and performance.
Waterproof Electronics:
Enjoy off-road adventure without
limits! Traxxas electric vehicles*
feature exclusive waterproof
electronics, allowing you blaze
new trails through water, mud,
snow and other wet-running
conditions that wouldn’t have
been possible before. With their
waterproof speed controls and servos, and watertight receiver boxes,
Traxxas electric models* keep rolling in conditions that send other R/C
models back to the workbench!
Durable: Traxxas models are known for being durable for the first-time
driver. Our years of experience allow us to make products that can
withstand the stunts and crashes that we know a first-time driver is going
to dish out. A Traxxas model is designed for years of enjoyment, not just
a week or two. No one has done more than Traxxas to create fun designs
that make it easy for anyone to get started in the great R/C hobby.
Innovative: Traxxas models are also innovative for the experienced
driver or racer. A team of dedicated engineers, specialists, and machinists
at our Plano, Texas facility work together to create the world’s most
advanced, innovative, and fun-to-drive radio controlled performance
machines. Traxxas products are created by enthusiasts who demand
nothing less than ultimate performance, elevating ready-to-run to ReadyTo-Race.®
Upgradable: Traxxas models can
be accessorized and upgraded with
hundreds of different parts and
accessories, both from Traxxas and
aftermarket manufacturers. Individuals
can custom-tailor the speed, handling,
and appearance of our models to suit
their needs. A Traxxas model is built for
years of interesting and fun new ideas
and creativity.

CONTROL®
Ready-To-Race: All models are fully assembled and Ready-To-Race.® Just
take them out of the box, install the batteries, and you’re ready to go.
Nitro models must be fueled and primed (easy!). Most Traxxas models
come complete with detailed operating manuals and award-winning
instructional DVDs. Everything you need to know about operating and
maintaining your new Traxxas model is covered for you. Of course, if you
have questions, we’re always just a phone call or e-mail away.
Customer Support: We offer the best support, period. We have friendly
toll-free phone support that’s available from 8:30am to 9pm central time
weekdays. Just call 1-888-TRAXXAS. We also offer
e-mail support anytime at support@Traxxas.com.
Parts and service are also available from a network
of 2,000+ hobby dealers worldwide. Traxxas models
are about experiencing total performance and
satisfaction, not just in the products, but also
with the company that stands behind them.
Velineon® Brushless Technology: We took the guesswork out of going
fast with brushless by designing a system that’s fully matched, optimized,
and easy to use, right out of the box. It’s designed the Traxxas way…just
plug it in and it works. Patent-pending Training Mode™ reduces power
output, allowing young or inexperienced drivers to develop their driving
skills before unleashing full-speed Velineon horsepower. Experience
power beyond limits!
Power-Up: There’s no
easier way to upgrade
the speed, performance,
and precision of your Traxxas model than with an exclusive Traxxas
Power-Up. It’s simple: when you’re ready to upgrade from brushed-motor
power to brushless, or increase your model’s horsepower with a TRX 2.5
or TRX 3.3 Racing Engine, or move up from your AM radio to a state-ofthe-art 2.4GHz system, the Power-Up Program lets you simply trade-in
your old gear for the latest Traxxas technology at 50% off the current
retail price of the new item. Your can Power-Up fast at your favorite
hobby store, or visit Traxxas.com to upgrade online.
Full-Size Short-Course Off-Road Racing: Short-Course Off-Road Racing is
an extremely competitive form of racing that pits 900+horsepower 2- and
4-wheel drive trucks in fender-to-fender competition inside closed-course
off-road arenas. The tracks are built with banked berms, punishing whoops
sections, and giant full-throttle sweepers that set the stage for extreme
action and intense racing. Traxxas is there, with 2WD and 4WD machines
built for all-out competition. Traxxas’ involvement in full-size off-road
racing allows the engineering
for both the radio controlled
race trucks and the full-sized
race trucks to converge for the
advancement of both sports. For
more information, race schedules,
television viewing schedules, and
locations, visit Traxxas.com.
Thank you for considering Traxxas. We work hard every day to assure the
highest level of customer satisfaction possible. Bottom line … we want
you to love your Traxxas model and have as much fun with it as possible!
*Traxxas E-Revo Brushless Edition and E-Maxx Brushless edition feature Castle Creations motors and speed controls that are not waterproof.

separation and spring clips to change
the ride height and spring pre-load. They can be
renewed in minutes with our inexpensive rebuild kits.
Race-proven in the 8-time
National Champion Revo,
Stampede 4X4’s differentials
represent the state of the
art in power handling and
efficiency. Precision silicone
gaskets and X-ring seals
allow the diffs to be tuned for
specific running conditions
by varying the viscosity of the fluid inside
them. Differential access for tuning is quick and easy.
Just remove the front or rear cover and the entire
differential slides right out.
Dual-Bellcrank Steering
No part of Stampede 4X4
was overlooked in the quest
for durability, precision, and
performance. The new dualbellcrank design pivots on
rubber-sealed ball bearings
for smooth action in the
harshest conditions, and an
integrated cam-type servo saver
protects the servo gears from crash impacts without
sacrificing steering precision.
High-Torque Digital Waterproof
Steering Servo
High-power, high-traction
driving requires extra muscle
for responsive steering.
The 2075 servo delivers

and a waterproof case for allweather fun.
A ground-breaking new
waterproof receiver box is
another Traxxas innovation
that puts Stampede 4X4 VXL
in a league of its own. To
protect the receiver from dust
and water a custom shaped

adjusted without disassembly or removal, and
the unique 3-pad design is proven rugged in Traxxas’
most powerful electric and nitro vehicles. It’s the
perfect compliment to Velineon brushless power and
4WD, offering the ultimate in traction control.
Rubber-Sealed
Ball Bearings
Precision rubber-sealed
bearings are used in exposed
locations. They provide
ultimate protection and low
maintenance in dirt and
dusty environments.
Pre-Glued Tires on
Black Chrome All-Star Wheels
The advanced Talon tread
pattern is the same proven
design used to provide
excellent traction on our
highest performing Revo
and T-Maxx models! The soft
compound rubber hooks up
for maximum acceleration
and great grip on a wide
variety of surfaces: dirt, grass,
pavement, and rocks.
Modular Simplicity
Old designs made servicing of 4-wheel drive vehicles
cumbersome and time-consuming. Traxxas has a
better way. Modular design allows the entire front
section to be removed with just 5 screws, and the
rear assembly with just 4 screws. In less than a

Unstoppable All-Terrain Innovation!
With Summit,™ Traxxas offers the first-ever remote locking differential system (patent pending) that allows you to lock
and unlock the differentials right from your transmitter. Blaze down the track or trail and attack jumps at speed with
the sure-footed feel you expect from its E-Revo® DNA. When the trail ends in an impossible climb, there’s no need to
turn around; just drop the transmission into low range for a rock-conquering 70:1 gear ratio and lock the front and
rear T-Lock™ differentials for maximum traction—right from the transmitter. Summit’s ultra-long-travel suspension
tracks over rocks like no other truck can as the T-Lock differentials keep all four wheels powered no matter which tire is
gripping or slipping. When you’ve cleared the climb and it’s time to get back up to speed, flip the switch
to unlock the diffs, shift into high range, and hit the trail. Summit gives you complete control.

Summit delivers with the
biggest, gnarliest Traxxas
tire ever: the Canyon AT.™
This multi-terrain tread
features aggressive, angular
lugs that dig in on dirt,
grass, roots and rocks to
get Summit up and over
anything you aim it at.
Dual-CV Telescoping Axles
Summit is equipped with
the toughest Traxxas shafts
ever. The smooth-sliding,
true-curvilinear spline
design pioneered for Revo
is now even stronger thanks
to CV-style joints on each
end – an industry first.
The joints’ crosspins are
supported by the full diameter of the shaft, so even
the heaviest torque loads won’t pop the joint.
Quick Release Battery Doors
The futuristic chassis design
incorporates enclosed battery
compartments into the sides
of the chassis for an ultra-clean

down using a hinged design and dual clasps secure the
tops of the battery doors for impact-proof security.
High-traction tires and a lowspeed technical climb­– that’s
a combo that demands a lot of
steering torque, and Summit
delivers with a dual-servo

Traxxas TRX® Racing Engines are fueled by a passion for performance, innovation and quality. Traxxas
engineers are dedicated to redefining the state of the art in engine technology. This includes listening to
our customers, and developing new standards and conventions that would meet the performance challenge.
TRX 3.3 Nitro Racing Engine
The TRX® 3.3 Racing Engine draws from a legacy of precision Traxxas engine design and manufacturing. Traxxas has
always been at the forefront of innovation, beginning with the powerful and reliable TRX Pro.15. Next, the Traxxas
EZ-Start® system ushered in a new era of convenience and ease of use with true, push-button electric starting. EZ-Start
later evolved to incorporate built-in diagnostic functions, LED indicators, a constant-voltage glow plug circuit, and more
powerful starter motors. Then came the TRX 2.5, a marvel of award-winning power and technology that sent the bar for
Ready-To-Race® performance to unimaginable new heights.
BEST NITRO
ENGINE
RC Car Action
Readers’ Choice Awards
Fast forward to the present and 18 years of nitro engine development have culminated into the most powerful TRX
engine ever made, the TRX 3.3 Racing Engine. It embodies everything we’ve learned from over a decade of making
engines more powerful, more reliable, and easier to use. The TRX 3.3 Racing Engine is so powerful it establishes a whole
new classification of power... Extreme Power!
The TRX 3.3 produces an extreme 60% more peak horsepower compared to the TRX 2.5! The overall power under the
curve is nearly 50% greater to deliver the smooth, linear power output TRX engines are famous for. The TRX 3.3 Racing
Engine offers thoroughbred race engine performance that’s absolutely second to none. There’s no penalty to pay
for having more power either. The TRX 3.3 Racing Engine is equipped with EZ-Start push-button electric starting and
simple, reliable tuning from the two-needle composite slide carburetor. Plus it’s backed by the support and reliability
you expect from Traxxas including the exclusive Lifetime Engine Replacement Plan.
TRX Racing Engine Performance Features
Ball Bearings
The quality and smoothness of an engine’s ball bearings
contribute to the life and performance of the engine. The
TRX 3.3 uses only top-grade, ultra-high performance, large
diameter ball bearings. Top quality bearings improve
power by reducing parasitic friction. The rear engine
bearing uses a high-tech composite cage for reliable
operation at engine speeds that approach 50,000rpm!
IPS Crankshaft
The new crankshaft design has dyno-proven timing
and port flow to optimize fuel delivery into the engine.
The crank is surface hardened, precision ground and
micro-polished for superior life and durability. Traxxas IPS
crankshaft design makes the TRX 3.3 compatible with any
model equipped with a TRX 2.5 or TRX 2.5R Racing Engine.
Straight-through Exhaust Flow
The rear-facing round exhaust port provides unrestricted
“straight-through” exhaust flow. There are other rear
exhaust engines, but the innovative shape of the TRX
3.3’s exhaust port was carefully engineered to provide
unrestricted exhaust flow, while at the same time
maintaining a low exhaust port height. The low exhaust
port height provides a longer duration power stroke for
increased efficiency and total power output.
O-Ring Exhaust Gasket
The exhaust header features an extra-tough, finned
mounting base that dissipates heat and is sealed with a reliable O-ring gasket.
This virtually eliminates troublesome, messy exhaust leaks that steal engine
power and efficiency.
High-Volume Air Filter
The air filter is often overlooked as being a key to engine
performance and life. Not so with the TRX Racing Engines!
It’s ultra low-restriction air filter provides superior air-flow
and filtration for more power and long engine life. The
inside of the filter mates perfectly to the carburetor to
eliminate turbulence as air passes through the carburetor.
The two-stage design features a reusable oiled foam
element that’s easy to maintain and a built-in fine-mesh pre-filter.
Crankcase
The TRX 3.3 uses a new crankcase engineered with
high-tech porting and cooling refinements to boost
power output. Precision casting provides the strength
needed for the TRX 3.3’s high power output. The external
dimensions allow the TRX 3.3 to fit anywhere a TRX 2.5 or
TRX 2.5R was installed.

PowerTune™ Head
The giant PowerTune machined aluminum cooling head promotes
even heat distribution for stable engine temps and rock-solid tuning
consistency. The newly designed molded head protector is securely
fastened to the top of the head with precision hex screws.
Head Protector
The impact resistant head protector is secured to cylinder head with
screws so it won’t fall off. It’s designed to absorb harsh impacts and to
protect your cylinder head from roll overs.
TRX Composite Slide Carburetor
The TRX 3.3 is equipped with same high-performance slide carburetor that
has reliably powered a generation of TRX Racing Engines. The slide type
carburetor provides less restrictive, straight through airflow for more power
and improved throttle response. Because it is molded, Traxxas engineers
incorporated superior internal design enhancements and precision not
possible with traditional machined carburetor. The composite material
does not transfer heat like aluminum for more consistent tuning.
Piston and Sleeve
The piston is composed of a proprietary material that reduces wear
and extends engine life. The piston and sleeve materials are also
unique in their ability to maintain consistent fit through the engines
operating temperature range. The sleeve ports are larger, increasing
power through improved efficiency and scavenging.
Connecting Rod
The knife-edged connecting rod reduces internal drag and
turbulence. The channeled design provides the strength to handle the
power of the TRX 3.3 and also directs the oil-flow down to the crankshaft.
®
Progressive
Suspension Design
The key to Revo’s remarkable handling is in the
rockers. Revo’s patent-pending linkage-based
suspension not only delivers the most suspension
travel of any monster truck, it constantly varies both
the spring force and damping to match suspension
movement. Over small bumps, the suspension
is light and responsive, reacting instantly to the
surface. Compress the suspension over large jumps
and the rocker geometry progressively increases
the spring force and shock damping. In an instant,
the suspension automatically becomes stiffer when
you need it most. Ride height, progressive rate, and
damping can all be fine tuned independently of the
other. The result is a no-compromise setup that
simply would not be possible with conventional
suspension design. Only Revo delivers the best
handling for every extreme.
Nothing Else
Even Comes Close.
Nothing else comes close to delivering the
total, no-compromise performance and superior
innovation found on Revo.
