Traxxas Bandit VXL RC Electric Buggy Brushless Motor

The next generation of extreme brushless horsepower is here, and it’s Ready-To-Race® from Traxxas! Velineon™ is the ultimate brushless system delivering the tire-melting horsepower, supercharged speeds, and ease of use that you expect from Traxxas. Just plug it in and it works. The Bandit VXL expands the Extreme Sports Buggy Legacy with even more power than you ever thought possible. The new Velineon Brushless Power System accelerates Bandit VXL into the stratosphere with jet-like thrust and incredible 70+mph top speed! The Bandit VXL is a low-slung, lightweight speed machine that’s rocket fast on pavement and rips incredible roost off-road. Get a pair of Bandit VXLs together and the race is on. Your battery selection determines your speed and skill level. The Velineon system accepts the widest range of battery types, including 3-cell Lithium Polymer packs (3S LiPo packs). Built-in low-voltage detection in the VXL-3s electronic speed control helps you maintain your LiPo battery packs in top condition. The new VXL-3s forward/ reverse electronic speed control simplifies brushless technology with easy operation that gives you all the control you need for maximum fun and the flexibility to use brushed, brushless and sensored brushless motors. The tough new look compliments the additional performance enhancements including a digital high-torque steering servo, steel turnbuckles, steel transmission gears, 5x11 ball bearings, and precision hex hardware.

The quest for ultimate speed began with the battery connector. As today’s batteries store more and more energy inside their cells, traditional battery connectors became a roadblock, unable to deliver all the energy the battery is capable of outputting. The new Traxxas High-Current Connector and Maxx® Cable 12-gauge wire opens the door for unrestricted current flow.

The Velineon 3500 Brushless Motor is precision-matched for use in the 1/10 scale Bandit, delivering the perfect balance of brutal horsepower and efficiency. The sensorless design works with the sophisticated circuitry in the VXL-3s Electronic Speed Control for smooth starts and precise control, without the need for additional sensors and wiring. Since there are no brushes or commutator to cause friction and wear, Velineon brushless power is always fast, run after run.

The Velineon VXL-3s forward/reverse electronic speed control simplifies brushless technology with easy operation that gives you all the control you need for maximum fun. Quickly choose from 3 drive profiles in exactly the same manner as other Traxxas electronic speed controls (such as the XL-5). Profiles include: Sport, Race, and Training Mode (patent pending). Training Mode™ limits full-throttle power to 50% allowing young or new drivers to safely develop their control skills before unleashing the full-throttle capability of the Velineon system. Bandit VXL’s performance can be tailored for drivers of any age and experience. High-frequency transistors and advanced circuit design deliver incredibly smooth and refined throttle control. With the VXL-3s you have the flexibility to use conventional brushed motors, brushless motors, and sensored brushless motors. The VXL-3s auto detects the motor type for you. High-current capacity (320 amps peak) and two-stage thermal protection frees you from motor limits.

The Bandit VXL is equipped to handle serious horsepower with features such as the advanced Revo®-Spec Torque-Control™ slipper clutch. The patent-pending design delivers smooth operation, precise adjustment, and consistent traction control, even when tortured with massive amounts of horsepower. New upgrades to the Bandit VXL include high-grade hex hardware, precision metal turnbuckle links with heavy-duty rod ends, and larger 5x11mm rubber-sealed ball bearings at the wheels. The transmission is beefed-up as well with tough new steel gears. With so much speed available, the Bandit VXL is equipped with an all-new digital high-torque steering servo for lightning-quick steering response and confidence-inspiring precision.

The Bandit is 100% Ready-To-Race® right out of the box with the TQ™ 2-channel radio system, and the Velineon Brushless Power System. Just take the Bandit VXL out of the box, charge up a battery, and drive!
