Traxxas Spartan High Performance Race Boat RTR w/TQi 2.4GHz, LiPos & Chargers

This is the Traxxas Spartan High Performance Ready-To-Run Race Boat, with an included TQi 2.4GHz radio system, two 3S 5000mAh LiPo battery packs and two LiPo balance chargers. With its included Power Cell LiPo 5000mAh LiPo packs on board, the Traxxas Spartan is the world’s fastest Ready-To-Race boat right out of the box. The howling fury of 50+ mph across the water with 6S LiPo power will make even the most insatiable, power-hungry enthusiasts jump up and take notice. The clean, modern hull design is built up in layers for maximum rigidity where it matters most; the transom and ride pad. The integrated battery trays securely hold a variety of battery configurations, including the largest high-capacity LiPos. The optimized rudder configuration carves amazing full-throttle turns. Everything about Spartan means business: the super-rigid, 36-inch deep-V hull; smooth, cable drive efficiency; innovative water-cooling system; and precision aluminum and stainless steel drive controls.

Spartan’s serious specs are backed up by serious horsepower. The VXL-6s speed control is built for true 6s LiPo power. Engineered by Castle, the leader in high-power brushless performance, the VXL-6s is optimized for all-out performance and features Low Voltage Detection to keep the Power Cell LiPos running strong. From bow to stern, the Spartan has been engineered to exploit the full potential of the 540XL motor for extreme 50+mph speed. No detail was overlooked in our mission to engineer a boat that offers the power, speed, convenience, and fun that Traxxas’ award-winning cars and trucks are known for. Prepare yourself for the ultimate R/C boating power trip!
