About the 6S Traxxas Sledge


Design

The Traxxas Sledge RTR Monster Truck stands out for its durable and race-inspired design, construction, and engineering. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, it boasts a rock-solid chassis fortified with a triangulated structure and a full-length T-Bar™ for unparalleled strength and rigidity. This robust foundation ensures the Sledge can withstand the rigors of off-road bashing while maintaining precise handling and control. The clipless body mounting system exemplifies Traxxas' commitment to user convenience, allowing for quick and effortless body removal and replacement. Additionally, the integration of an aluminum motor cradle mount, and zero-flex aluminum motor mount enhances durability and reliability, ensuring the Sledge delivers an exhilarating and consistent performance every time it hits the terrain.

Chassis & Suspension

The main chassis and suspension of the Traxxas Sledge Monster Truck are engineered to deliver razor-sharp handling and unmatched durability. Featuring a 3.2 mm ribbed aluminum chassis with formed edges for improved strength, the Sledge maintains a low center of gravity (LCG) design that enhances stability and responsiveness. Its suspension system is optimized for performance with ultra-tough composite arms, oversized molded toe and camber links, and heavy-duty C-hubs. The inclusion of oil-filled GT-Maxx aluminum big bore shocks ensures smooth and controlled damping over rough terrain, while the rugged locking battery compartment with a quick-release door ensures secure and hassle-free battery access. With precision-engineered components and a focus on maximizing strength and durability, the chassis and suspension of the Traxxas Sledge set the standard for off-road performance and reliability.

Drivetrain & Electronics

The Traxxas Sledge sets itself apart with a supreme 6S-rated drivetrain and electronics package that delivers relentless power and unmatched performance. Powered by a Velineon VXL-6s ESC and a 2000kV brushless motor, the Sledge is capable of blistering speeds of up to 70+ mph when paired with two 3S LiPo batteries! The drivetrain features heavy-duty steel driveshafts, large 8mm steel stub axles, and steel gear differentials and driveshafts to handle the extreme power output. Equipped with the Traxxas Stability Management (TSM) that ensures optimal traction and control, while the TQi™ 2.4 GHz High Output Radio System provides precise control and customization options. With its 6S power system, integrated cooling fan, and real-time telemetry via Traxxas Link™, the Sledge offers a truly exhilarating and immersive RC experience, pushing the boundaries of off-road performance and excitement!

Traxxas Sledge RTR 6S 4WD Electric Brushless 1/8 Monster Truck (Blue)
Awesome truck. Wildly powerful, with a simple tire swap and removal of some of the “bash” bracing it handles really well on the track. Traxxas Response Pro (3.8) wheels and tires bolt right on and provide this truck the traction it needs on track and also ditching the center brace and two rear spider bracing helps gain some chassis flex. It has quickly became my go to truck for pretty much any driving situation.

Traxxas Sledge RTR 6S 4WD Electric Brushless 1/8 Monster Truck (Blue)
Great as an out of the box basher. But for purchasing to do typical truggy style stuff such as racing with friends, reasonable jumping etc. Its far more worth it to buy the kyosho or mugen truggy. If you plan on upgrading all the electronics and adding the upgrades to improve the sledge it actually cost quite a bit more to get it close to the performance of the other two mentioned truggies. Don't be misled by traxxas claim on precision manufacturing. Its a landslide difference between the sledge and the other 2 manufacturers listed in this review.

Traxxas Sledge RTR 6S 4WD Electric Brushless 1/8 Monster Truck (Blue)
The truck is mostly good but the transmission is by no means bulletproof. If you consider actually running the truck, then it's important to shim the diffs since they don't do this stock.
