Custom painted body shownThe Slash kit’s clear body comes pre-cut and ready to paint. Along with the standard decals and window masking, the kit includes special custom masking to make your wildest custom designs a reality. All you need is some Traxxas ProGraphix® paint to complete your truck.
The waterproof XL-5 electronic speed control is a proven trouble-free performer. Choose from three driving profiles and hit the dirt with smooth, reliable throttle control. Sport Mode delivers full forward/brake/reverse control; Race Mode locks out reverse; and Training Mode™ reduces speed and power by 50% for new drivers.
The 3785 Titan® motor's 550-size can houses larger magnets for more torque than 540 motors, and its 12-turn armature is optimized for torque and RPM, delivering speeds over 30 mph. An integrated cooling fan keeps the Titan running strong, run after run.
The Magnum 272 transmission features all metal gears riding on ultra-smooth sealed ball bearings. This tough and efficient design transfers power from the motor to the wheels through durable telescoping U-joint driveshafts for maximum articulation. Want to upgrade to Velineon® brushless power? Don’t worry, the Magnum transmission is already built to handle the additional power.
Slash wears satin-finish 5-spoke wheels with pre-glued BFGoodrich Mud Terrain T/A tires. The tires deliver the perfect balance of forward traction and side bite on asphalt, dirt, and any other surface you throw at them. Performance tuned foam inserts help keep the truck firmly planted through the most extreme power-sliding turns and on the most demanding off-road terrain.

Build the Ultimate Slash
The electronics included in the Slash kit are a great place to start if you're new to RC. Once you become more familiar with your Slash, you may want to crank it up a notch or two and put down some serious power. Fortunately you own a Traxxas Slash and it's built brushless ready from the start. That means you can drop in the powerful Velineon brushless system without any costly upgrades required. Speaking of upgrades, Slash has the widest parts support of any RC truck ever made. From high-strength aluminum shocks to steel CV driveshafts, you'll never run out of ways to customize your ride.
The Velineon VXL-3s™ speed control and 3500 motor (3350R) doubles the Slash's speed to over 60 mph*, and unleashes massive tire-roasting torque. The VXL-3s speed control’s advanced circuitry delivers incredibly smooth and refined throttle control, and of course, it’s waterproof.
*Requires 3s LiPo battery and high speed gearing (sold separately).
