NEW LOW-CG CHASSIS
Rustler 4X4 rides on a new low-CG chassis that has been lengthened 20mm for extra stability. The low center of gravity and wide track width helps the Rustler 4X4 stay planted in the turns for thrilling high speed fun. -
DETAILS
Details make the difference when Traxxas engineers set their focus on making the performance and durability gains that make Rustler 4X4 VXL such a huge standout for high-speed fun.
Modular Chassis
The Rustler 4X4’s all-new modular chassis features front and rear bulkheads that remove easily with just a few screws. In less than a minute using a power screwdriver, you’ll have full access for easy service and adjustment.
Velineon 3500 Motor
A sensorless Velineon 3500 kV motor delivers extreme performance with nearly zero maintenance. Ultra high-temperature Neodymium magnets, high-speed bearings, and a precision, 4-pole balanced rotor deliver smooth running and long life. Read More
VXL-3s ESC
The waterproof Velineon VXL-3s speed control is packed with technology to deliver maximum power. Large heat sink, integrated on/off switch, and three programmable drive profiles top the feature list. Two-stage low voltage detection allows full LiPo compatibility, including powerful 11.1-volt 3S packs! Read More
Waterproof Receiver Box
The Rustler’s innovative waterproof receiver box allows easy access to the receiver. The antenna and servo wires route neatly through a patented watertight seal to protect the receiver from water. No matter what the weather, Rustler 4X4 is ready for action!
5-Channel Receiver with Failsafe
The TQi 2.4GHz receiver stores up to thirty Traxxas Link™ enabled transmitters in memory. Integrated telemetry ports allow real-time data to transmit from your Traxxas model to the TQi transmitter. In the event of signal loss, the receiver automatically returns the throttle to neutral and holds the last steering position.
New Talon EXT 2.8” Tires and Black Chrome Wheels
The Rustler’s large 2.8” black chrome wheels provide terrain-conquering ground clearance and a commanding presence. Talon™ EXT tires have a square-shouldered, aggressive tread design to dig into gravel, dirt, and grass for incredible 4X4 traction and huge roost.
Ultra Shocks
Oil-filled Ultra Shocks utilize dual X-ring technology for a perfect seal and silky-smooth performance. The large oil capacity and rugged design soaks up big jumps and off-road abuse for smooth driving performance. They are easy to tune with a wide range of available oils, springs, and pistons.
Single Screw Motor Access
Rustler 4X4’s innovative motor mount holds the Velineon 3500 motor securely in place and yet releases instantly with just one screw. Gear-mesh adjustments are fast and easy.
Digital High-Torque Waterproof Steering Servo
The Rustler 4X4’s extreme speed and quick reflexes require a steering servo that’s both strong and fast. The included digital high-speed, high-torque servo features ball bearings for precise control and quick reflexes. Read More
Revo-Spec Oil-Filled Differentials
Rustler 4X4 VXL’s heavy-duty front and rear oil-filled differentials utilize steel-gear internals for maximum durability. Silicone gaskets and X-ring seals allow you to tune the amount of locking action by varying the viscosity of the fluid inside the differentials.
New Front and Rear Bumpers
Tough reinforced bumpers protect the chassis against impacts. The specially designed front bumper provides a high approach angle that allows the Rustler to climb up and over obstacles with ease. The rear bumper mounts a perfectly positioned wheelie bar to help prevent the Rustler 4X4 VXL from back-flipping from its explosive power.
Heavy-Duty Composite Arms
All-new heavy-duty suspension arms are stronger than ever before. Molded from a tough new composite material, the arms stand up to even the most punishing drivers and resist breakage for non-stop fun behind the wheel.
Extruded Aluminum Driveshaft
A one-piece extruded aluminum driveshaft is both strong and lightweight. Internal splines fit directly onto the input shafts of the front and rear drive assemblies. All together, this shaft runs straight and true for ultra-smooth driveline operation.
Progressive Rate Springs
Progressive rate springs are lighter through the initial range of travel to maintain traction and composure over small ruts and bumps. Hit the big jumps and the springs tighten up to prevent bottoming the chassis at the extreme ranges of the suspension travel.
Extreme Heavy-Duty Driveshafts
Rustler 4X4’s extreme heavy-duty driveshafts are modeled after the legendary Slash 4X4, but are beefed up in critical areas for even more outrageous power handling. The larger diameter half shafts offer the same articulation and suspension travel, but are rated for even more tire-shredding torque.
Optimum-Geometry Steering with Integrated Servo Saver
A dual-bellcrank design pivots on rubber-sealed ball bearings for smooth action in the harshest conditions. The integrated cam-type servo saver protects the servo gears from crash impacts without sacrificing steering precision.
Heavy-Duty 32-Pitch Gears
Designed from the start to handle big brushless horsepower, Rustler’s 4X4 driveline uses a rugged spur gear with large 0.8 module/32-pitch teeth for reliability no matter how much power you pour on.
Heavy-Duty 4mm Turnbuckles
Rustler 4X4 uses the same heavy-duty steel 4mm turnbuckles developed for the Slash 4X4. Broad flat sections make toe and camber adjustments easy with the included wrench. The fully captured rod ends take a beating and won't pop apart during rigorous off-road pounding.
New Prographix Body
Rustler’s aggressive ProGraphix™ body comes trimmed and pre-painted with the decals already applied. Tough internal reinforcements maintain the body’s integrity while roof skids provide rollover protection to keep the body looking fresh.
Functional Rear Wing
The functional rear wing reduces drag while still providing valuable downforce for high speed stability. The wing mounts directly to the internal body reinforcements for lasting durability.
Secure Body Latch
Rustler’s clipless ProGraphix® body mounts on specially designed shock towers. The easy-to-use latch unlocks instantly with the quick swipe of a thumb and locks again with a noticeable detent to let you know it’s securely fastened.
Improved Battery Hold-Down
The Rustler’s innovative battery hold down accommodates traditional flat battery packs as well as “hump” packs. A beefed up latch provides solid locking action to keep batteries secure no matter how wild the action gets.
Rubber-Sealed Ball Bearings
Maximizing speed requires as little friction as possible. Rustler 4X4 rides on precision rubber-sealed bearings for super low-friction performance and maximum protection in dusty environments. They are used throughout the truck and are virtually maintenance free.
Wheelie Bar
A wheelie bar is an absolute necessity on a vehicle with the power and speed potential of the Rustler 4X4 VXL. The reinforced wheelie bar provides additional impact resistance for the bumper and also protects the wing during 100-foot wheelies.
