Traxxas

1/16 scale 4WD Electric Monster Truck

We Scaled Down Everything...
Except the Power!
E-Revo Innovation, Precision, and
Performance—Now in 1/16 Scale!

A New Category Of Off-Road Excitement

Traxxas sets the standard for power, performance and innovation. Now, for the first time, all the speed, quality and capability you expect from Traxxas is available in 1/16 scale with the new 1/16 E-Revo VXL. At 14 inches long, E-Revo VXL is about half the size of the 1/10-scale E-Revo. But don't call it a "mini"—this is a whole new category of R/C performance and fun that no mere mini-model can match. Beneath the factory-finished polycarbonate shell, you'll find the winning suspension technology of the seven-time National Champion Traxxas Revo®, screaming Velineon® brushless-motor power, and the convention-busting innovation of the E-Revo.

Proven Traxxas Innovation

No detail was overlooked in our mission to bring all the capability, durability, and excitement of Traxxas' award-winning models to 1/16 scale for fast, affordable R/C fun. The E-Revo VXL is built on the race-winning, track-proven innovation of the Revo and E-Revo models. The standard-bearer of design excellence, the Revo's F1-inspired, rocker-actuated suspension has been expertly adapted to 1/16 scale with all its functionality and performance intact, right down to the oil-filled, threaded-body GTR shocks. This superior technology provides capability, performance, and tuning functions at the absolute pinnacle of truck design. The suspension and electronics are fully integrated into the semi-monocoque chassis design that stunned the world when it debuted with the E-Revo. Intricately molded as a single piece, the chassis balances strength and weight, function and aesthetics, convenience and performance to far surpass the standards of the "mini" category. In 1/16 scale, it is an even more impressive achievement of packaging and performance optimization that could only come from Traxxas, The Fastest Name In Radio Control®.

Class-Leading Speed

Some mini-models are "fast for a mini." That's not good enough for Traxxas. The 1/16 E-Revo VXL is just plain fast. At 30+mph with the included 6-cell NiMH battery, E-Revo VXL is nearly twice as fast as most mini models, and faster than most electric RTR trucks of any scale. Install a second 6-cell battery to unleash the Velineon Brushless Power System's full fury, and E-Revo VXL jumps to over 50mph—all with proven-safe NiMH packs. No other RTR truck, regardless of scale, makes it so easy and affordable to experience this level of high speed and wheelie-popping power.

The World's Most Advanced Ready-To-Race® Radio System

The 1/16 E-Revo VXL is equipped with the world's most advanced Ready-To-Race® radio system. The all-new Traxxas® TQi™ arrives with a full complement of tuning features and offers the unbeatable convenience of "no channels, no crystals" 2.4GHz technology—but that's just the beginning. Automatic model recognition instantly recalls your settings for up to 30 Traxxas Link-enabled models. Just switch on and drive, no naming or "model memory" settings required. Power up the transmitter and the model you want to drive, and the settings for that model are dialed in immediately! The new TQi 2.4GHz transmitter is fully adjustable: steering and throttle end points can be set precisely, and the Multi-Function knob can be programmed to control Steering Sensitivity (Expo), Throttle Sensitivity (Expo), Steering Percentage (Dual Rate), Braking Percentage (Dual Rate), or Throttle Trim.

Battery Cooling Vents

Artfully designed intakes and exits allow cooling air to circulate through the battery enclosures to lower the temperature of the batteries for maximum run-time and "punch." Nothing was overlooked in carrying over all the design innovation of the E-Revo into 1/16 scale.

Progressive Rate Travel

With over 50mm of suspension travel, 1/16 E-Revo VXL offers the most articulation possible for bump and jump handling capability that leaves other trucks far behind. Tunable progressive damping rates, independent ride height adjustment, and the absolute highest level of control for any situation put Traxxas 1/16-scale models far ahead of the pack.

Oil-Filled GTR Shocks

1/16 E-Revo VXL's super-smooth oil-filled shocks damp the suspension and maintain control no matter how rugged the terrain. They are fully tuneable and include pressure bladders for air/oil separation and threaded spring pre-load collars for quick ride height adjustments.

Revo-Spec Suspension

A defining feature of the E-Revo, expertly executed in 1/16 scale—the unique Revo®-Spec suspension geometry provides true progressive rate performance that's light over the small bumps and tightens when compressed to resist bottoming out over large jumps. Spring and damping rates increase automatically for small-bump compliance without compromising shock-absorbing performance for big hits.

ProGraphix® Painted Bodies

The 1/16 E-Revo VXL's fully trimmed and painted ProGraphix body is available in Red, Blue, Black, and Silver themes. Decals are also applied to save you time and get you driving just minutes out of the box. Traxxas' ProGraphix bodies are the hottest looking bodies around and are only available on Traxxas Ready-To-Race® models.

High-Downforce Wing

1/16 E-Revo VXL's streamlined design incorporates Formula 1 styling and functionality. The rugged rear wing's extra downforce enables positive rear traction in any situation and steady, controllable flight over jumps.


Rubber-Sealed Ball Bearings

Precision rubber-sealed bearings offer the ultimate in low-friction performance and maximum protection in dirty environments. They are used in all exposed locations on the truck and are virtually maintenance free.

Hex Hardware

Pro-quality, high-grade, metric hex-drive hardware is used throughout for extra strength, and easy maintenance and repair. The black-oxide rust-resistant finish provides a high tech-look and feel.
