Traxxas Sledge RTR Monster Truck - 6S Brushless Basher
The Traxxas Sledge RTR 6S 4WD Electric Monster Truck, is an all out basher designed to give you the power and performance for serious off-road fun. This monster truck features a rock solid chassis, massive steel drivetrain, 6S power system and race inspired handling. These features lead to a truck that is designed to push the limits of off-road bashing and look good in the process. Pick up the Traxxas Sledge and leave everything else in the dust.
Powering this monster truck is a Traxxas VXL-6S Velineon ESC and a 2000kV Brushless Motor. Traxxas then used massive steel gears, a triangulated chassis and a center T-bar brace to hold up to the 6S power. A special aluminum motor cradle is used to secure the motor in place eliminating motor flex. The drive train features a torque-biasing center differential that distribute power evenly throughout the chassis. Solid steel axles are used front, center and rear to deliver the power to the wheels. The shock towers are 5mm thick and are tied directly to the center brace for further durability. Holding the truck up are large-bore GT-Maxx aluminum shocks mounted with 4mm hardware. Traxxas left no stone unturned and developed a truck that is ready for any terrain.

The triangulated chassis structure integrates a deep-formed T6 aluminum plate with a multi-point composite truss system and the patent-pending full-length T-Bar™. Built on a solid foundation, Sledge is strongest where it matters most.NEW CLIPLESS BODY
