Traxxas' E-Revo VXL 1/16 4WD Brushless RTR Truck is 14 inches long, measuring about half the size of the full size E-Revo. But don’t let the smaller size fool you; this little brushless monster packs a HUGE punch. Packed under the factory-finished polycarbonate shell, you’ll find the same suspension technology found in the renowned Traxxas Revo, Velineon brushless power, and all-weather ready electronics. Only Traxxas can give you the speed, quality, and performance you crave in a convenient 1/16 scale package.

CHARGER NOTE: The included charger requires a cigarette lighter socket found in full size vehicles to charge. If this is not your preference, Traxxas offers an adapter allowing you to charge from a standard home AC electrical socket (TRA2976). 

 

Traxxas Stability Management 
Traxxas Stability Management (TSM) allows you to experience all the extreme power, speed, and acceleration that was engineered into the 1/16 E-Revo VXL by making it much easier to control on 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. 

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! 

Class-Leading Speed 
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. 

Velineon Brushless Power 
Fully LiPo compatible with low-voltage detection for 2S and 3S packs and rated for 6-12 NiMH cells, this potent, powerful combo gives E-Revo VXL precise throttle control and blistering top speed. Patented Training Mode™ lets new drivers hone their skills at 50% throttle. When drivers' ed is through, full power and 50+mph is unleashed with a touch of the EZ-Set® button. The Velineon 380 is built to the same no-compromise specs as the Velineon 3500 found in Traxxas' 70+mph 1/10 scale VXL models. High-speed ball bearings. Sintered rotor. Neodymium magnets. Gold plated 3.5mm connectors. It all adds up to 50,000 rpm of pure power and track-searing speed! 

Precision 2.4GHz Control 
The 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 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 Traxxas Stability Management (TSM), Steering Sensitivity (Expo), Throttle Sensitivity (Expo), Steering Percentage (Dual Rate), Braking Percentage (Dual Rate), or Throttle Trim. TQi's ergonomic case design provides all-day driving comfort, and the unique internal antenna contributes to its sleek, modern look. 

Traxxas Link Wireless Module Compatible 
The TQi's most important feature may already be in your pocket. The TQi can be equipped with an Traxxas Link Wireless Module (TRA6511, sold separately) that turns your Android, iPad® iPhone® or iPod touch® into a powerful tuning tool for your Traxxas model. The full-color display combines with the free Traxxas Link™ App to deliver an intuitive, high-definition, full-color graphical user interface that unlocks the mysteries of optimizing your radio system for ultimate vehicle control. Traxxas Link also opens the door to telemetry capability when you add optional sensors to your model.

Traxxas E-Revo VXL 1/16 4WD Brushless RTR Truck (Purple)
For years I have been a BIG revo fan since the original Nitro Version. Since then, I have switched over to the electric side, purchasing the E-revo 2.0 and now the E-Revo VXL 1/16 model. A LOT of power in a small package. If you are a first time buyer, or looking for something for the little ones, This is definately the model to choose; Lots of power and speed for the experienced driver, or it can be toned down for the novice. One thing that sets Traxxas apart from all other models; availability of spare parts, options for customizing and just a well simplified yet study vehicle design that is easy to work/tinker with.

Traxxas E-Revo VXL 1/16 4WD Brushless RTR Truck (Purple)
My Traxxas 1/16 Revo VXL wasn't bound. Thank goodness for YouTube and watching the Traxxas Support channel. After I fixed that, I immediately put thicker fluid in the front and rear differentials. The differentials just have a small amount of grease but because I know I will run this hard, I wanted thicker fluid to handle the use and abuse. Finally I swapped out the stock tires for the Proline Sling Shots to run it through the snow. It's a blast! I was running just two NiMH batteries in a series so I swapped out the pinion gear with the provided "speed" gear (really it's a 23 tooth pinion vs. the 28 tooth pinion installed) but this is highly recommended to keep things cool because the motor and ESC will get extremely hot if running two NiMH batteries in a series (doubles the voltage) or one 3s Lipo. I can't wait to do a proper speed run if permitted by the weather and conditions. Amain was quick with the delivery (purchased Monday received Friday). I highly recommend the VXL model because of the speed it can achieve and the TQi radio providing TSM (Traxxas Stability Management-gyro).

Traxxas E-Revo VXL 1/16 4WD Brushless RTR Truck (Purple)
Have been out of the hobby for 20 years, wanted a small reliable RC to play around with. The 1/16 E Revo seemed to fit the bill. It’s well made and a true Ready to Run. Fast enough to be fun and tune ability for tinkering. It’s a little pricey for a small RC but for the quality and engineering that went into this truck, I’ll get over it. Some people don’t like Traxxas products. I’ve always had good luck with Traxxas. No complaints here. I’m sure there’s other small RCs similar to the Mini E Revo, I’m very happy with my decision.

Easy to order. It was originally back ordered with an estimated delivery in one month due to supply chain delays. but the company find one and shipped it in two days. What a positive surprise!
The company also took tax exemption from educational institutes.

Traxxas E-Revo VXL 1/16 4WD Brushless RTR Truck (Purple)
I purchased the Traxxas E-Revo 2.0 in Kennesaw Hobby Town, and WOW what a powerful, fun car! It's a monster! You need to ease into the acceleration from zero or else it'll wheelie or even flip up in a nanosecond. It's that powerful! Every time I rev it up it seems to jump up on all wheels. Full throttle is scary. LOL!

Get the Traxxas dual charger and 3S batteries set. I really like how the battery compartments are so organized inside the car. The car is also durable. I've rolled it over and cartwheeled it numerous times and it keeps on going. The only thing I had to replace so far was one front rod end. A pack of 8 rod ends were $8. The customer service at Hobbytown Kenneaw was super. Everyone was helpful and friendly. Ryan is awesome! I was also looking at the Arrma Typhon 6S but I'm glad I went with E Revo. Highly recommended!

Traxxas E-Revo VXL 1/16 4WD Brushless RTR Truck (Purple)
Amazing little truck! This thing is asleep on NiMH, but when you put a 3S LiHV battery into it, it screams past 50mph! The optional wheelie bar is a must have. It wheelies like crazy! It came missing a pin in the front center driveshaft, but it took 7min to fix. It handles like a full size E-Revo, and it has power like a Sledge! It does really well on jumps too.
