So the question is why the name spartan?
-well it may not look like a good idea at this point, but it's a good CMS.
Hey good choice going with the drupal site! I'm a little upset about the 1/16 Summit. I just got a full sized one 2 weeks ago. If Traxxas could just set dates for releases it would help alot!
I agree with tstmonkey, the rally vxl is just another 1/16 scale with a few tweaks, no major breakthroughs, most sad is no 1/8 scale brushless system. I could see getting this car if I didn't already...
Yeah I was hopping for a brushless Summit before I bought one, but I figured if they announced it this year it wouldn't be available till at least June of next year. More fun to play now and get the...
I just ordered a summit. Don't think I'll be selling my other vehicles. Each time I get a new one I think it might be the only car I need. But then I drive the older ones again and realize I want...
Thanks for the tip! It was geared 12/68. I've got the Emaxx 2 speed transmission and had it in low the whole time. When the wagon is empty it can get pulled easily in high gear. Temps are just warm,...
Ok, so I don't know how to embed stuff here... Here's a link if you want to see the same thing with a 1/16 slash.
One more time. Not sure it will be this truck, but sure they'll be one.
3 Reasons we'll see a Traxxas Nascar Truck
Here's all the reasons I've compiled of why Traxxas would make the Nascar Vehicle a reality.
3 Reasons we'll see a Traxxas Nascar Truck
I got that wagon and ran it with my emaxx, I think it could carry over 100lbs pretty easy. I did all the heavy lifting in first gear.

But isn't it greater to be loved by countless people on the internet than to have a job making awsome toys?
It's a frequent topic on the forums, and I know there's been votes before. But I wanted to create a list of specific projects that we'd like to see next from the Traxxas R&D. Vote now and send me...
Is that really true? I've always been afraid to get them wet with all I've heard about how dangerous they are. Anyone done tests?
I was more just referring to how they are waterproof out of the box. I suppose you could get just about any other battery and waterproof them your own way but I like to outsource all the stuff I...
I think as far as C rating you can't go too high. Here's a good article on C Ratings and Lipos Vs NiMH
I think running two 9.6v Batteries on a 16.8v esc you can just about plan on frying it. Especially since fully charged they're quite a bit more than 9.6 each. Your Better off going with a MMM or wait...
Although the cheap battery packs are a good deal for dry land vehicles I think for the Titan's power and just the fact that the packs could get wet you may want to go with MaxAmps Waterproof Lipos
Here's my review of the Traxxas Link Radio. I got the high output 4 channel version for my Emaxx and also got a receiver for my 4X4 Slash.
@ guys saying it's an MMM- if you look at the raw video of the boat release They say it's a VXL system designed just for this boat.
fastman here's raw video where Traxxas releases the boat and does it's first test drive. They say that it is a VXL system designed especially for this boat. Gotta be bigger than the normal VXL...
It is 22+v which is the same as 6 Lipos Cells. So if it takes 2x 6 it must be in parallel. It is hard to hear, I can't wait to see what's under the hull. I'd buy Traxxas cause it's waterproof. If it...
The video is out, Traxxas has new 50+ boat that has a VXL system that will take 6 lipo cells! I hope that means the new VXL for 1/8 trucks is coming soon!
Yeah that's one of the reason's we kept it slow while pulling people in it. I just about rubbed off the top of my cover after the video ends. So far the only idea I've gotten was a wheelie bar in the...
