A New Maxx Legacy Begins
The Traxxas X-Maxx® ® ® ®
The Maxx Experience
Maxx turns up the dial on fun with even more of what you crave. Maxx doubles down on strength and durability with a longer and wider stance for greater stability to match its blistering 60+ mph performance. Bury the throttle, fly through corners, and let Maxx turn your wildest full-throttle dreams into reality.
60+ MPH Maxx Muscle
Traxxas Velineon®
Traxxas Tough
Maxx is overbuilt with components modeled after the legendary X-Series™ trucks to withstand extreme punishment and intense driving action. The Maxx chassis absorbs and dissipates impact energy across the entire structure for superior strength. Huge threaded-aluminum GT-Maxx shocks with oversized shafts soak up massive jumps for high-flying fun at every turn.
WideMaxx Suspension
WideMaxx suspension technology stretches Maxx’s wheels out for a wider, more stable stance and higher cornering speeds. A long wheelbase chassis further enhances Maxx’s straight-line stability to give Maxx race truck stability to match its brutally tough construction.
Sledgehammer Tires
Huge 5.6” Sledgehammer tires feature an aggressive open-block tread design that clears away mud and debris for unrivaled traction.
More Colors
Maxx makes a statement with several ProGraphix®
WideMaxx from the Start
The popular WideMaxx®
Extended Chassis
Maxx’s energy absorbing chassis extends further to accommodate our most powerful 6700 mAh 4-cell LiPo battery. The ultra-tough composite chassis design with interlocking bulkheads forms a bedrock foundation for the heavy-duty suspension.
Sledgehammer Extreme Off-Road Tires
Large diameter, open tread block tires rain down massive clouds of roost and dominate any surface.
Maxx Muscle
Brutal punch off the line strains the wheelie bar as Maxx launches hard and fast on its way to 60+ mph. The advanced Velineon VXL-4s Electronic Speed Control (ESC) not only puts down the power, but it also has built-in telemetry that provides real-time speed, temperature, and voltage data. Integrated cooling fans on the ESC and the motor provide extended run times.
Integrated Wheelie Bar
A wheelie bar is mandatory equipment to handle Maxx’s wheel-standing acceleration. The wheelie bar helps prevent backflips under full-throttle acceleration and flexes to absorb impacts on less-than-perfect landings. It also features a convenient handle to transport your Maxx to the next adventure.
TQi Radio System
The high-output Traxxas TQi™ 2.4 GHz radio system delivers superior range, precision, and control. It is Traxxas Link enabled so you can add a Wireless Module (part 6511, sold separately) and connect wirelessly to the Traxxas Link™ app using your smart phone. Use it to customize your settings and view real time telemetry from the VXL-4s speed control.
Traxxas Stability Management
Traxxas Stability Management®
Superior Protection
The unique Maxx chassis design completely encloses the center driveshaft inside a rigid backbone structure for ultimate protection. Rugged, non-structural front and rear skid plates are designed to take all the punishment to protect critical bulkheads and driveline components. After they have done their job, simply replace them and Maxx will look as good as new.
Maxx Duty Drivetrain
Rugged durability is job one for Maxx’s drive system. Maxx utilizes proven components and technology from much larger and heavier trucks resulting in a driveline that has strength to spare. At its core are wide face steel gears, large steel ring and pinion gears, heavy-duty splined driveshafts, and a thick-walled, splined aluminum center driveshaft.
Torque-Biasing Center Drive
The proven Torque-Biasing Center Drive is optimized for maximum front-to-rear power distribution. It’s tuned to deliver jaw-dropping four-wheel drive acceleration along with massive punch and instant response. Traxxas’ exclusive Cush Drive™ tech absorbs driveline impacts to further improve driveline durability without maintenance or adjustment.
Traxxas Self-Righting
Originally pioneered for the X-Maxx, this exclusive, patent-pending Traxxas innovation uses 4s LiPo power to flip Maxx back onto its wheels after a roll over. In most situations, the fun won’t stop just to rescue an upside down truck.
Fully Waterproof
Water? Mud? Snow? Bring it on! Maxx exploits Traxxas’ patented waterproofing solutions that make the huge difference between being truly waterproof and merely “water resistant.” Traxxas waterproof electronics reliably extend your fun into all kinds of places that used to be off-limits.
Reinforced Clipless Body
Maxx’s innovative clipless body mounting system replaces tiny clips with a rugged latching system. Remove and install the body in seconds with just one hand. A tough cage structure supports the body while supplemental body reinforcements protect the body against wear and damage.
Easy Battery Access
The Maxx battery tray accommodates Traxxas’ most powerful 6700 mAh 4-cell LiPo battery. Maxx cradles and protects the single 4s LiPo battery deep in the chassis and secures it with a snap-lock battery retention system. Proven in trucks like X-Maxx, this innovative Traxxas system is far more durable than traditional methods.
Power Cell LiPo Batteries
Experience full Maxx performance with Traxxas Power Cell LiPo batteries. Power Cell LiPo batteries provide maximum punch off the line and free flowing power for 60+ mph speed runs. Only Traxxas Power Cell batteries offer the safety and one-button charging convenience of patented iD®
Accessory High-Output Light Kit (Sold Separately)
An optional LED Light Kit (part 8990, sold separately) is available for Maxx that features a 40 LED bright white front bar with low and high beams. Out back, a 48-LED light bar features red taillights with working brake and white reverse lights.

Full Length Motor Cradle
Maxx is built for all-day action with a full length motor cradle to fully support the 540XL motor and eliminate gear-crunching flex. The innovative fixed gear mesh system precisely sets the gear mesh with fixed pins so you can focus on driving and having fun and never have to worry about gear mesh adjustment.
Shock Tower Design
Maxx’s integrated shock towers are part of the chassis and produce a rigid, triangulated structure for secure mounting of the shocks and body. They also provide an authentic off-road look that fills in the wheel openings of the truck. Sometimes the landing after a jump does not go as planned, so the upper shock mounts are shrouded for protection against impacts and grinding.
Waterproof From the Start
Waterproofing our models has never been an afterthought at Traxxas. Patented Traxxas innovation seals out the water so that your playground is extended through water, snow, and mud. Dirty truck? Just hose it off. The receiver box allows fast radio access without removal.
Maxx Steering Authority
The steering servo in Maxx is the same size as the steering servo used on the giant X-Maxx. With 285 oz-in of torque, it has strength and power in reserve for fast response and incredible steering authority.
Battery Compartment
Maxx accommodates Traxxas' largest Power Cell 6700 mAh 4-cell LiPo battery from the X-Maxx for extended run times and even more thrills. The snap-lock retainer keeps a secure grip on the battery, but releases in seconds.
GT-Maxx Aluminum Shocks
The four extra-large bore, oil-filled GT-Maxx shocks provide super plush damping even on the roughest terrain. Extra-large diameter shock shafts move smoothly through the double X-ring seals for responsive damping. Machined aluminum bodies are threaded to adjust ride height while the lower spring retainers are captured by screws to keep them secure, even on the harshest landings.
Heavy Duty Suspension Arms
The Maxx’s oversized double wishbone suspension arms maintain proper suspension geometry throughout the entire range of travel. Double-shear connections and extra-thick steel upper and lower tie bars provide incredible strength and impact resistance. Tough composites further resist impact damage, even in cold weather.
Modular Chassis Design
The interlocking chassis design ties the shock towers, front and rear modules, and the main frame into a single rigid platform that is engineered to absorb and dissipate impact energy across the entire structure. Critical driveline, radio, and battery components are protected to keep Maxx off the workbench and out having fun. Strategically placed tool access has been thoughtfully put in place to make any needed maintenance or repairs a snap to perform.
Full Contact Sealed Bearings
Maxx utilizes full contact sealed bearings throughout the driveline to keep out the grime and grit. Less downtime for cleaning and maintaining bearings equals more run time for the Maxx.
Shock-Absorbing Cush Drive
Traxxas’ innovative Cush Drive™ uses a special elastomer damper to absorb driveline shocks at the spur gear for superior reliability. Because there is nothing to slip or adjust, Cush Drive provides instant acceleration and throttle control.
Torque-Biasing Center Drive
The Torque-Biasing Center Drive absorbs shocks to improve driveline durability. The center drive also distributes power to all four wheels for mind-bending four-wheel drive acceleration without the side effects of a typical center differential. Center differentials allow tires in the air to balloon uncontrollably, while the Torque-Biasing Center Drive allows wheelies off the line with seamless power distributed to all four wheels.
Aluminum Splined Driveshaft
A thick-wall, heavy-duty, splined aluminum center driveshaft carries the power to the front and rear differentials. This heavy-duty driveshaft yields precise engagement, incredible strength, and smooth running.
Extreme-Duty Telescoping Driveshafts
Traxxas telescoping splined driveshafts benefit from years of Traxxas design evolution for durable, smooth-running performance you can count on. These extreme-duty driveshafts maximize suspension travel and steering angles to radically extend the Maxx performance envelope.
Steel Gear Differentials
The Maxx’s 4-gear differentials are sealed and filled with heavyweight oil, which provides a limited-slip effect for maximum traction on loose surfaces. The reinforced differentials use 7 mm output shafts along with large-pitch, large-diameter, steel ring and pinion gears for ultimate reliability.
