Traxxas Slash 4×4 Ultimate RTR Brushless TSM w/iD Quick Charger & LiPo Battery

This is the Traxxas Slash 4×4 Ultimate Ready-to-Run Brushless Electric Short Course Truck with Traxxas Stability Management, Traxxas iD Quick Charger and 2S 5800mAh LiPo Battery Pack. This comes with a Traxxas Power Cell 5800mAh 7.4V 2-Cell LiPo battery pack, iD LiPo balancing fast charger, TQi 2.4GHz Radio now with wireless module, Traxxas Stability Management (TSM), factory-installed telemetry sensors, and the Velineon brushless motor and speed control!

Traxxas Stability Management
Traxxas Stability Management (TSM) allows you to experience all the extreme power, speed, and acceleration that was engineered into the Slash 4X4 VXL by making it much easier to control on common slippery surfaces such as loose dirt, smooth concrete, and even ice and snow. Punch it off the line and TSM goes to work sensing the vehicle’s direction and making steering corrections to provide straight-ahead full-throttle acceleration without fishtailing, spinouts, and loss of control. TSM also works during cornering, first making intuitive corrections to maintain your line, and then allowing you to hammer the throttle earlier in the turn for much faster exit speeds. Braking is dramatically improved as TSM works to keep you arrow straight until you come to a complete stop. TSM acts as your on-board co-pilot in the vehicle that “feels” what the vehicle is doing and makes corrections for vehicle movements that you cannot even detect, well before the vehicle gets out of control.

Traxxas TSM gives you all the benefits modern electronic stabilization has to offer without intruding on your driving fun. Traxxas engineers developed superior tuning algorithms that run on high-speed, precision electronic components to create a system that works invisibly, in the background, without ever limiting your throttle. TSM can be fine tuned (or turned off) for different surfaces by simply adjusting the multi-function knob on the TQi transmitter, or by adjusting the slider in the Traxxas link app. The result is that you are driving faster, with more ease, and having more fun,with that fully connected feeling at the controls that you expect. In fact, you may not even realize how much TSM is helping you until you turn it off and test your driving skills without it!

TSM Benefits

Low-CG Chassis. High Volume Shocks. LiPo Power.

This is the Definition of Ultimate Performance
The next-generation Slash 4X4 Ultimate unleashes Ready-To-Race performance at the highest level. LiPo power is standard equipment. The included 4200mAh Power Cell LiPo delivers high capacity and 45+mph speed (switch to 19-tooth pinion gear for speeds of 60 MPH!) to keep track time up and lap times down. The all-new Low-CG (center of gravity) chassis provides superior handling and maximum corner speed. Rough-track control is enhanced by new high-volume, hard-anodized GTR shocks with PTFE-coated bores that provide smooth suspension action and consistent damping, lap after lap. Slash 4X4 Ultimate’s low-CG design and state-of-the-art suspension combine to deliver lightning-fast steering, composed handling, and precision control that set the standard for short-course performance. The TQi 2.4GHz Radio System with Bluetooth Wireless Module and Slash 4X4 Ultimate’s factory installed telemetry sensors enable real-time data capture and set the standard for tuning ease and versatility. To truly make this the Ultimate Slash 4X4, the specs are completed with nearly every factory option available, from aluminum suspension components to a sealed, silicone-filled differential. Simply put, it’s the best of the best.

All New Low-CG Chassis
Slash 4X4 Ultimate’s performance refinements begin with an all-new Low-CG (low center of gravity) chassis that’s unlike anything you’ve seen before. The battery and electronics are held as deep in the chassis as possible to position weight low in the chassis. Arrow-straight, hard-charging acceleration with Extreme Brushless Power and 4WD requires a chassis that won’t flex under load. To offer the necessary rigidity, the chassis is reinforced by integrated ribs that form a triangulated structure optimized for the loads imparted by the suspension and powertrain. Underneath, the chassis is ultra-smooth to reduce drag and prevent snags whether you’re blasting through whoops on the track or blazing trails in your backyard. The low-CG design dramatically increases corner speed and stability no matter where you drive. On the racecourse, Slash 4X4 Ultimate’s low center of gravity allows high-output Velineon brushless power to be channeled into the track with superior traction, resulting in harder launches and faster lap times.

Power Cell LiPo and Charger Included
The ultimate Slash 4X4 deserves the ultimate battery, and Traxxas delivers with a competition-grade 2-cell, 5800mAh Power Cell LiPo battery pack. The 5800mAh capacity extends run time for more laps and more fun from every charge, while the exclusive High Current Connector and Maxx Cable wire make certain every watt flows to the Velineon VXL-3s speed control with the lowest possible electrical resistance. Within the Power Cell LiPo’s semi-rigid case, extra-large solder tabs increase durability and further reduce electrical resistance. And since charging care is critical to LiPo life and performance, Slash 4X4 Ultimate now includes the EZ-Peak Plus iD 4-amp quick charger. Just plug in the battery, press “start” on the charger, and you’re on the way to another run – no programming or setting required.

The World’s Most Advanced Ready-To-Race Radio System Now Connects Wirelessly to the Traxxas Link App
The Traxxas TQi paired with the Traxxas Link app is the most advanced, feature-rich, Ready-to-Race radio system available. Now, TQi connects wirelessly to the latest Traxxas Link app for the ultimate in ease-of-use and control. The TQi radio with the Slash 4×4 Ultimate includes the Traxxas Link Wireless Module to unlock exciting features such as instant Bluetooth connectivity; access to the full range of powerful TQi tuning and telemetry tools through an intuitive high-definition graphical interface; and the ability to have a friend remotely monitor real-time telemetry while you focus on mashing the throttle. Your co-driver can even make adjustments for you, remotely, while you drive. No other radio system can do that. Just like the speed and performance Traxxas engineers into the vehicles, the power and capability of TQi and Traxxas Link expands your fun into all-new territory. Only from Traxxas, The Fastest Name in Radio Control.

The Traxxas Link Wireless Module is compatible with Android devices, iPhone (4S, 5, 5C, 5S), iPod touch (5th generation and later versions), iPad (3rd generation and later versions), or iPad mini. Mobile devices not included with vehicle.

Shock length has been customized for Slash 4X4 Ultimate to deliver track-ready suspension travel, and the hard-anodized shock bodies have 13mm bores to hold 76% more oil than the standard Slash 4X4’s Ultra Shocks. The GTR shocks feature PTFE-coated bores for nearly frictionless piston travel, and their slick titanium-nitride coated shafts resist scuffing, increase durability, and eliminate “stiction.” The shocks are sealed by unique X-rings to keep oil in and dirt out for smooth, consistent damping and plush suspension action, lap after lap. Between runs, spring reload and ride height changes are as simple as turning the threaded spring collars–no clips or spacers required.

Factory-Equipped for Pro-Level Performance
In addition to its new GTR shocks, the Slash 4X4 Ultimate includes a full compliment of premium accessories to deliver competition-grade short-course performance and bomb-proof durability. Building on the winning formula of the standard Slash 4X4, the Ultimate’s C-hubs, steering blocks, and rear hub carriers are constructed of solid aluminum for strength and blue-anodized for style. All-terrain tires in soft S1 compound rubber enhance grip, and high-traction handling can be precisely tuned with the front and rear swaybars–two thicknesses are included to suit any surface. The Torque-Control Slipper Clutch adjusts quickly to suit available traction and track conditions, and the included, fully-assembled silicone-filled center differential can be installed in place of the slipper clutch to further tune handling. Everything else is factory-installed and fully prepped for on-track performance. No other electric short-course truck can match the Slash 4X4 Ultimate’s incredible convenience, competition-grade specs, and pro-level performance.

High-Output Brushless Power
Slash 4X4 Ultmate’s Velineon Brushless Power system unleashes outrageous electric power without limitations or boundaries. Pour in the voltage and out comes the speed in tidal waves of force harnessed by precision throttle control. Sheer, brutal power combined with four-corner grip results in tire-melting acceleration and lightning fast speed. The Velineon 3s Brushless Power System’s components work together as an optimized package, from the patented Traxxas High-Current connector to the custom-wound motor. Engineered to perform, the Velineon system delivers the ultimate in efficiency, speed, and run-time with precision throttle response and refined control. It’s brushless performance the Traxxas way: wicked fast and easy to use. Just plug it in and it works, no special knowledge or programming skills required.

Velineon VXL-3s Electronic Speed Control
The Velineon VXL-3s speed control is loaded with high-grade technology to deliver maximum power to the motor. Two-stage low voltage detection prevents Slash 4X4 Ultimate’s LiPo battery from being over-discharged, and advanced circuit design gives smooth power delivery at any speed. Whether you’re navigating a hairpin turn with fine low-speed inputs, shredding the straights with a rush of power, or carefully feathering the throttle to hug the groove in a sweeper, the VXL-3s speed control puts you in command with precise control. When it’s time to go all-out for speed, the Velineon power system is ready to send high-output 3-cell LiPo power to all four tires and blast the Slash 4X4 Ultimate past 60mph* when you switch to a 3-cell LiPo.

Velineon 3500 Brushless Motor
Extreme performance is standard equipment with the sensorless Velineon motor. Ultra high-temperature Neodymium magnets, high-speed ball bearings, and a precision-balanced rotor deliver power and long life with near zero maintenance. Just drive–since there are no brushes or commutator to wear out, you always get the same blistering acceleration and ballistic top speed every time you hit the track.

Ultra Efficient Shaft-Driven 4WD
The Slash 4X4 Ultimate uses just three gear meshes to drive all four wheels, eliminating the need for a multi-gear transmission. The highly efficient drivetrain spins effortlessly on rubber-sealed ball bearings, and is integrated seamlessly into the Slash 4X4 Ultimate’s unique Low-CG chassis for optimum performance and easy maintenance. The center driveshaft is formed from extruded aluminum and extremely lightweight, contributing to the Slash 4X4 Ultimate’s right-now acceleration. There are no dogbones to wear, no drive cups to wobble. The extrusion process creates internal splines that fit directly and securely onto the input shafts of the front and rear drive assemblies. The shaft runs perfectly straight and true and superior rigidity and durability. Traxxas engineers highlighted this important innovation with vivid blue anodizing and a laser-etched Traxxas logo.

Modular Simplicity
Old designs made servicing of 4-wheel drive vehicles cumbersome and time-consuming. Traxxas has a better way. The Slash 4X4 Ultimate’s modular design allows the entire front section to be removed with just five screws, and the rear assembly with just four screws. In less than a minute using a power screwdriver, you have full access for easy service and adjustment.
