At 30+mph with the included 6-cell NiMH battery, Slash VXL is nearly twice as fast as most mini models, and faster than most electric RTR trucks of any scale. Install a second 6-cell battery to unleash the Velineon Brushless Power System’s full fury, and Slash VXL jumps to over 50mph—all with proven-safe NiMH packs. No other RTR truck, regardless of scale, makes it so easy and affordable to experience this level of high speed and wheelie-popping power.

The Best 1/10 Electric Stadium Truck: Traxxas Slash
“If we had an ‘RC Vehicle Of The Year’ award, the Slash would win. Some may not understand its appeal, but once you drive one and race or bash with some friends, the reason for its win becomes obvious. You can pick one up for less than $ 200 and join a racing class that isn’t cluttered with option parts or tire options. Its scale appearance makes it look awesome on a track, and honestly it doesn’t handle too badly either. And again—advertising in our mag isn’t a factor, but when you take into consideration the fact that Traxxas spends a grip of cash exposing non-RC people to the hobby with TV commercials and an entire full-size racing team, you can see why the Slash has gained a huge following in such a short time. We’ve never before seen this much excitement over a $ 200 RTR…ever.
