BIGFOOT 4X4
Traxxas brings back the glory days of monster truck racing with the new BIGFOOT® 4X4 equipped with BL-2s™ brushless power and Traxxas’ toughest 4X4 driveline. BIGFOOT 4X4 comes outfitted with a clipless BIGFOOT No. 8 body and factory-installed Extreme Heavy Duty components to take the most brutal punishment in stride. From the stadium to your own backyard, Traxxas delivers all-day fun and excitement with the new BIGFOOT 4X4 monster truck.
Extreme HD 4X4 Driveline
BIGFOOT 4X4 uses a shaft-driven four-wheel-drive system for extreme traction in any environment. A tough center driveshaft joins the front and rear steel-gear differentials to distribute the brushless motor’s massive torque. Huge Maxx-Duty® driveshafts keep power flowing to BIGFOOT’s towering monster truck wheels with unrivaled durability.
BL-2s Brushless Power System
BIGFOOT’s waterproof BL-2s brushless power system ramps up the fun with more torque, faster acceleration, and less maintenance than comparable brushed power systems. The BL-2s is a model of efficiency and refinement, offering more power than before with the safety and convenience that only Traxxas can deliver.
Clipless Replica Body
BIGFOOT 4X4 comes Ready-To-Race® with a beautifully detailed BIGFOOT No. 8 clipless replica body. Bright chrome bumpers stand out against the brilliant blue paint and unmistakable red and yellow stripes. BIGFOOT 4X4’s convenient hidden latching system replaces traditional body clips with clean lines and a secure hold.

Wheelie Bar
BIGFOOT 4X4 is a wheelie machine thanks to the monstrous power of the BL-2s brushless power system. BIGFOOT’s wheelie bar delivers complete wheelie control and incorporates a convenient carry handle.
Monster Truck Wheels with Terra Groove Tires
BIGFOOT 4X4 rides on dual-profile white monster truck wheels with replica military-style axle hubs. Large Terra Groove tires come pre-glued and mounted with foam inserts. The Terra Groove tires emulate the "hand carved" look of the full-size treads for grip on a wide variety of surfaces including dirt, grass, pavement, and rocks.
Clipless Body Mounting
BIGFOOT’s innovative clipless body features secure mounting with quick and easy removal. No posts, no clips—just drop the body onto the chassis and snap it into place for a secure hold. When it’s time to change the battery, depress the tabs under the wheel wells and lift to access the chassis in just seconds.
Oil-Filled Ultra Shocks
BIGFOOT’s oil-filled Ultra Shocks™ utilize dual X-ring technology for a perfect seal and silky-smooth performance. The large oil capacity and rugged design soaks up big jumps and off-road abuse for smooth driving performance. They are easy to tune with a wide range of available oils, springs, and pistons.
Long-Travel Suspension
BIGFOOT has huge amounts of seemingly bottomless, ultra-plush suspension travel to swallow up jumps and delivers incredible control. Performance-optimized suspension components provide maximum articulation without binding or interference.
Adjustable Battery Hold-Dow
BIGFOOT’s battery tray accommodates both short and long-format batteries for maximum flexibility. A rugged battery hold-down secures the battery safely in the chassis without flimsy straps or clips to lose. They battery latch provides solid locking action to keep batteries safe no matter how wild the action gets.
Modular Chassis
BIGFOOT’s modular design creates a chassis that’s both strong and easy to maintain. The front and rear bulkheads remove easily with just a few screws. In less than a minute using a power screwdriver, you’ll have full access for easy service and adjustment.
Digital High-Torque Waterproof Steering Servo
BIGFOOT’s large monster truck tires and go-anywhere capability require a steering servo that’s both strong and durable. The waterproof 2075 digital high servo provides robust steering authority with ball bearings for precise control.
Waterproof Receiver Box
BIGFOOT 4X4 incorporates a waterproof receiver box in the nose of the chassis to save weight and provide a clean, high-tech appearance. The antenna and servo wires route neatly through a patented watertight seal to protect the receiver from water. No matter what the weather, BIGFOOT is ready for action!
3-Channel Receiver with Fail-Safe Security
In the event of signal loss due to an accidental transmitter switch-off or depleted batteries, the receiver automatically returns the throttle to neutral and holds the last commanded steering position. The fail-safe programming is conveniently built-in and does not need to be activated.
Dual Bellcrank Steering with Servo Saver
BIGFOOT’s dual-bellcrank design pivots smoothly even in the harshest conditions. An integrated cam-type servo saver protects the steering servo from crash impacts without sacrificing steering precision.
Durable One-Piece Camber Links
Durable one-piece camber links are perfect for bashing because they maintain proper suspension geometry and never require adjustments. Captured rod ends provide unmatched durability and they won't pop off.
Hex Hardware
Hex-drive hardware provides a more positive and secure connection than other fasteners. The black-oxide coating provides a rust resistant high-tech look and feel.
Heavy Duty Suspension Arms
Molded from our toughest composite material, BIGFOOT 4X4’s heavy-duty suspension arms provide just the right amount of flex to resist breaking—even in cold weather! These high-tech suspension arms stand up to even the most punishing drivers for non-stop fun behind the wheel.
Extreme Suspension Components
BIGFOOT 4X4 comes outfitted with the Extreme Heavy Duty Upgrade Kit already installed for ultimate strength and durability. The axle carriers, C-hubs, and steering blocks are beefed-up with more material and stronger construction.
Rubber-Sealed Ball Bearings
BIGFOOT 4X4 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 and more fun.
Large 32-Pitch Gears
BIGFOOT 4X4’s driveline is built to handle standard brushless horsepower power and even the extreme Velineon 3s brushless power upgrade down the road. The spur gear features large 32-pitch teeth for total reliability no matter how much power you pour on.
Upgraded Slipper Clutch
BIGFOOT 4X4 uses an upgraded slipper clutch with larger alloy pressure plates and high-temperature aluminum pads for superior power handling. The slipper clutch delivers equal power distribution front to rear for instant throttle response through the drive system and aggressive four-wheel grip from the Sledgehammer tires.
Maxx-Duty Driveshafts
BIGFOOT 4X4 features Maxx-duty driveshafts with beefed-up U-joints are built to handle brushless power without breaking a sweat. Large 6 mm axles key into the included steel wheel hexes for unmatched strength and durability.
Sealed Steel-Gear Differentials
Sealed steel-gear differentials are ready to handle brushless power without costly upgrades. Silicone gaskets and X-ring seals allow the differentials to be tuned for specific running conditions by varying the viscosity of the oil inside them. BIGFOOT's modular chassis design makes differential access quick and easy.
