The World's Most Advanced Ready-To-Race® Radio SystemTotal Control. Traxxas models deserve the world's most advanced Ready-To-Race® radio system. The radio system after all is the sole connection between the driver and machine. It has to be precise, comfortable, powerful, and reliable. The all-new Traxxas® TQi™ radio system arrives with a full compliment of tuning features; long-range, high-output, 2.4GHz signal, and proven Traxxas reliability for rock-solid performance. It's so advanced; it doesn't even need an external antenna. However, the most important new feature may already be in your pocket. The TQi can be equipped with an optional Traxxas Link Wireless Module (#6511, sold separately) that turns your Android, iPad® iPhone® or iPod touch® into a powerful tuning tool for your Traxxas model. The full-color display combines with the Traxxas Link™ App to deliver an intuitive, high-definition, full-color graphical user interface that unlocks the mysteries of optimizing your radio system for ultimate vehicle control.
5-channel Micro Receiver with Fail-Safe Security
The TQi 2.4GHz micro receiver fits easily into any vehicle, and features dual channel-1 outputs for easy installation in vehicles with dual steering servos—no Y-harness necessary! The integrated LINK button makes it fast and easy to bind the receiver, and the two-color LED indicates power-on and bind status for fool-proof control and convenience. Traxxas Link Model Memory allows the receiver to recognize up to thirty TQi 2.4Ghz Traxxas Link enabled transmitters—just switch on and drive. In the event of signal loss due to an accidental switch-off or depleted batteries, the receiver will automatically return the throttle to neutral and hold the last commanded steering position. The Fail Safe programming is built-in and does not need to be set or activated. Three telemetry ports are incorporated in the 5-channel receiver to allow real-time data to be transmitted from your Traxxas model to the TQi transmitter.

Twin Titan® 550 Motors
Titan 550 motors feature a 30% longer motor armature than a standard 540 size motor for monster big block torque. An internal fan helps keep the motor running at optimal temperatures for maximum power.
Extended Chassis Design
For improved stability and handling characteristics, a new chassis was engineered from the ground up. The new E-Maxx chassis features a 30mm longer wheelbase while offering maximum ground clearance (over 4 inches). The additional chassis length allows the use of flat seven-cell stick battery packs. To keep the handling tight, new angled battery compartments sit low in the chassis for an extremely low center of gravity.
New Chassis Braces with Transmission Skidplate
Heavy-duty chassis braces coupled with an integrated transmission skid plate provide rigid support that protects the center driveline and virtually eliminates power robbing chassis flex.
Heavy-Duty Transmission
More compact and nearly 2 1/2 times stronger than the original E-Maxx transmission, the new single-speed Brushless Ready™ transmission features an oversized steel idler gear and a Revo®-spec Torque-Control™ slipper clutch to handle the massive torque of high-performance brushless motors. To access spur and pinion gears quickly and easily, a unique two-piece gear cover can be removed and installed with a single hex screw. For additional tuning options an accessory single motor installation kit and two-speed gear sets are available.
Revo®-Spec Torque-Control™ Slipper Clutch
The Torque-Control slipper clutch uses special semi-metallic friction material and finned aluminum alloy pressure plates to dissipate heat and provide consistent traction control. The semi-metallic friction material remains stable across a wide temperature range to provide smooth, linear engagement you can count on, lap after lap. Spur gears can be removed and replaced without altering the slipper adjustment. A center ball bearing maintains precise, long-lasting alignment with near friction-free running and virtually zero maintenance. Originally developed for Revo, the Torque-Control slipper is more than tough enough for E-Maxx. Only Traxxas has it!
Revo®-Spec Drivetrain
Building on the durability of the reliable and incredibly tough Revo drivetrain, E-Maxx incorporates sealed super-duty driveshafts and sealed pivot ball suspension. Heavy-duty axle carriers use large diameter rubber-sealed bearings for ultra-smooth running.
Sealed Revo®-Spec Differentials
Maxx differential housings feature tunable sealed differentials with Revo internals for maximum tuning ability. Precision sealed with Traxxas X-ring silicone seals, E-Maxx differentials are designed for long-lasting performance and the ability to tune for specific running conditions. Built to handle extreme torque and power, these differentials offer unmatched versatility and toughness.
Dual Waterproof Steering Servos
Waterproof steering servos (#2056) use O-ring seals to keep the fun going when things get wet. The dual high-torque servos provide the muscle needed to turn the giant 3.8" Maxx® Chevron tires with incredible precision and speed.
Waterproof Receiver Box
A ground-breaking weather-sealed receiver box is another Traxxas innovation that puts E-Maxx in a league of its own. The antenna and servo wires route neatly to a special watertight seal (patent pending). To protect the receiver from water, snow, mud, and dust, a custom shaped blue O-ring seals the receiver box. Thanks to the unique design, the receiver can be removed for service, and even aftermarket receivers can be used, without losing the watertight properties of the box.
Powerful Steering System
Dual, waterproof, high-torque servos drive a heavy-duty bellcrank steering system. The integrated servo saver and smooth ball bearings combine with the dual-servo muscle to deliver the most powerful and precise Maxx® steering system ever.
Soft Compound 3.8" Chevron Tires
Pre-glued to 3.8" Mirror-Chrome Split-Spoke wheels, the soft compound Maxx chevron tires are designed to maximize performance for all-terrain traction. On dirt the chevron tread pattern claws for traction providing superior forward bite and massive roosts, and on pavement the forgiving side grip allows the tire to power-slide while maintaining a sure-footed neutral feel.
Double-Shear Captured Linkages
E-Maxx features 100% double-shear connections to all steering and toe linkages to capture and secure all rod ends for unmatched durability. A thick tie-bar on the rear toe links further increases the double sheer strength.
That Famous Maxx® Suspension
E-Maxx continues the Maxx tradition with its incredible WideMaxx™ 4-wheel independent suspension. Wicked long travel, nearly 4 inches at each wheel, is ready to take on just about the roughest terrain you can imagine. Eight oil-filled shocks (two at each wheel) deliver that plush feel and 'bottomless' suspension travel the Maxx series trucks are famous for. The WideMaxx is fully tuneable for the track or extreme bashing with up to 10 shock-mounting positions, adjustable front caster angle, front and rear toe, and front and rear camber angles.
Oil-Filled Ultra Shocks™
Traxxas oil-filled Ultra Shocks are fully tuneable for race-inspired performance. The spring pre-load is adjustable via precise clip-on spacers making it easy to know that each shock is adjusted to the same spec. Rubber pressure bladders prevent air pockets and foaming common with bladderless designs. Double O-ring seals in the shock body keep shock oil in and air out for consistent performance pack after pack.
Tough Composite Components
Improved body mounts, universal Maxx differential housings, strengthened gray composite chassis, and steel reinforced bulkheads increase durability for hardcore bashing.
Hex Hardware
Pro-quality, high-grade, metric hex-drive hardware is used throughout for extra strength and easy maintenance and repair. The black-oxide rust-resistant finish provides a high tech look and feel.
Rubber-Sealed Ball Bearings
Precision rubber-sealed bearings offer the ultimate in super low-friction performance and maximum protection in dirt and nitro environments. They are used in all exposed locations on the truck and are virtually maintenance free.
ProGraphix® Bodies
The extended wheelbase E-Maxx body comes fully trimmed and painted. Decals are also applied to save time and get you driving just minutes out of the box. Traxxas’ ProGraphix bodies are the hottest looking bodies around and are only available on Traxxas Ready-to-Race® models. Available in red, blue, black, and white.
Over 4" Inches of Center Ground Clearance
The unique E-Maxx chassis design offers maximum center ground clearance (over 4 inches) to eliminate the high-centering and chassis dragging that plague flat-chassis monster trucks. Plus it maintains that tall, authentic monster truck look.
