This is the Vaterra Halix Ready to Run Brushless 1/10 4WD Monster Truck. The Vaterra Hälix 4WD Brushless Monster Truck represents the next generation in monster truck performance, speed and stability. With a Dynamite 3300Kv sensorless brushless motor paired with a 2S-3S compatible ESC make this monster truck one of the fastest monster trucks available. Having all that power and not being able maintain control doesn't do you much good. That is where Spektrum's AVC (Active Vehicle Control) stabilization system steps in. The Hälix isn't the only brushless monster truck on the market but it is the only monster truck that provides you with the ability to take full advantage of it's brushless power system thanks to Spektrum's AVC. This revolutionary technology utilizes sensors to adjust steering and throttle output ensuring the Hälix maintains maximum grip in even the most brutal of driving environments. 

Nothing was spared when setting the Hälix up with the ultimate electronics package. From the included Spektrum DX2E radio system to the complete Dynamite power system, the Hälix was designed to decimate all other 4WD monster trucks on the market today. The Dynamite Fuze 3300Kv sensorless brushless motor and Fuze 70A ESC w/fan provide relentless speed and power. The Fuze 70A ESC is compatible with 2S-3S li-po's and comes pre-wired with a high-current EC3 connector. The vehicles gearing is all metal and designed to handle anything you can throw at it. The entire electronics package including the ESC, servo and receiver are waterproof.   

The included DX2E radio system comes loaded with features not found in any other 2.4GHz radio system on the market today. The transmitter and receiver include DSMR technology which adds a level of security and range found only with Spektrum. In additon to DSMR, the system integrates AVC (Active Vehicle Control Technology) into the existing receiver and transmitter requiring no additional components required in order to take advantage of this revolutionary stabilization system. 

AVC (Active Vehicle Control) Technology
AVC Technology is the newest Spektrum™ RC innovation from Horizon Hobby. This Spektrum stabilization system adds a whole new level of control to your RC driving experience. AVC technology utilizes sensors to adjust steering and throttle output, providing you with a more stable and controlled driving experience.

  • Heading Hold: AVC technology’s Heading Hold feature allows you to focus on driving faster with the confidence of complete control. Heading Hold manages steering output by automatically aligning a vehicle’s tires to your chosen direction, and, when centered, maintains that direction regardless of the amount of traction or ruggedness of terrain. Now lining up and hitting that big jump just became as easy as punching the trigger.
  • Throttle Management: The Throttle Management function enabled by AVC technology assists in maintaining maximum grip in even the most challenging of environments. AVC technology adjusts a vehicle’s throttle output in order to minimize wheel slip, allowing a driver to accelerate with total control. Whether you’re heading into a turn with too much speed or driving on a slippery surface where traction is minimized, Throttle Management assists in maximizing traction when you need it the most.
  • Adjustable Sensitivity: The amount of stability assistance that AVC technology provides can be adjusted to suit any combination of skill level, driving style and terrain. Depending on which Spektrum™ transmitter you are using, adjustments can be made using programming functions or a steering rate knob. AVC can also be turned completely off for a traditional driving experience where you can test your driving abilities.

After running this truck for two month and 50 battery later on 2s lipo, all i can say, it a solid truck only 1 camber link break, very easy to drive with AVC on any surface. I have the stampede 4x4 but the Halix is better, jump very well, incredible truck !

You know I wrote to the company direct and lodged a complaint about this product item. All the Youtube videos showed that the plastic drive shafts (especially for the money you paid) were not satisfactory. In fact they were rubbish. I got told by a representative from the company that the product item had been tested satisfactorily without any issues. When a company doesn't want to admit to a fault, they just don't, and they'll say anything to justify it, rather than listen to their user base who pay the bills every time they buy this product. This was and still is a great looking truck. It looks fantastic and it drives beautifully. The only problem was the plastic drive shafts. They just don't stand up to the power of a 3S battery. But they don't listen. People power and reviews on the internet will decide your fate, not your politically correct statements about product testing. There was nothing wrong with this truck - all they had to do was supply metal drive shafts and you'd be on an absolute winner. I just don't get it. Why is this a discontinued item if there was nothing wrong with it. I'm not blaming Amain - it's not their fault. It's a fantastic looking vehicle and you only had to change one thing. Those blasted plastic drive shafts - come on guys.....wake up!

let me start withe this the halix is a fun truck to drive, however is basicly a stampede 4x4 that is made of cheaper material. when i run this thing on 3 cell it is just about what i expect for speed and fun, but it deffenitly!!!! can not handle the abuse. I kept breaking drivesafts one withen 5 min of replacing it. the avc to me is just a gimmic. save yourself some time and money and just get a stampede 4x4
