This is the Traxxas Slash 4X4 Low-CG "Ultimate" 1/10 Scale Ready-To-Run 4WD Short Course Truck, with an included TQi 2.4GHz radio system with Docking Base, two 4200mAh Power Cell LiPo batteries and a LiPo balance charger. The next-generation Slash 4X4 Ultimate unleashes Ready-To-Race performance at the highest level. LiPo power is standard equipment on the Ultimate. The included Power Cell LiPo batteries deliver high capacity, increased speed, and faster charging to keep track time up and lap times down. Plus, with two batteries, you spend less time charging, and more time driving.
The Low-CG (center of gravity) chassis provides superior handling and maximum corner speed. Rough-track control is enhanced by 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 Docking Base 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, this is the best of the best.
