INNOVATION - Insightful design touches and precision engineering, combined with a low-CG, mid-motor configuration and fully adjustable suspension, make the Traxxas Factory Five Hot Rods as exciting and capable as the real thing.
CLASSIC BEAUTYA steeply-raked chrome grille flows into the long narrow hood and aggressively chopped roof. Chrome headlights flank the sculpted fenders with full running boards. Deep, lustrous paint and wild graphics complete the package. The look is pure classic hot rod and Traxxas brings this timeless style to life in 1/10 scale.
NEW 4-TEC 3.0 HOT ROD CHASSISThe 4-Tec 3.0 chassis wheelbase is extended to 300mm and outfitted with ultra low-profile suspension. This allows for highly accurate, deep-cut body lines and exacting proportions throughout both models. The rigid modular platform delivers ultimate steering precision and nearly infinite tuning potential. No classic hot rod ever handled this well.
FACTORY LIGHTINGFactory-installed LED lighting adds another layer of scale detail to the sculpted Hot Rod bodies. Brilliant white LEDs illuminate the headlight housings to lead the way with red tail light lenses for the competition as you blow past them. Naturally everything’s waterproof to keep the fun going, regardless of weather conditions.
4-TEC 3.0The 4-Tec platform’s new 3.0 spec is larger than the previous 4-Tec with an extended wheelbase, larger wheels and tires, and a wider track that enhances stability and handling. Proven GTR Shocks deliver road-tuned handling with full adjustability.
LED LIGHTING SYSTEMThe Traxxas Factory Five Hot Rods take scale realism to the next level with vivid LED lighting! The headlight and tail light set are pre-installed and custom-fit for authentic action after dark.
CLIPLESS FRONT BODY BOUNTThe Hod Rods preserve their flowing lines without the use of front body clips. A reinforced latch mounts securely to the front shock tower for quick and easy body removal.
DISPLAY-GRADE DETAILThe flowing lines of the ‘33 Coupe and ‘35 Pickup draw plenty of attention, but it’s the extra details that put them over the top. Injection-molded chrome grilles dazzle in the sunlight along with bright chrome side mirrors and detailed headlight housings. Custom graphics finish off the package for a look that’s ready to cruise the boulevard.
ALL-WHEEL DRIVEA highly efficient shaft driven all-wheel drive system rides on sealed bearings and provides maximum acceleration and responsiveness.
MODULAR SIMPLICITYRigid Traxxas modular design utilizes three precision engineered modules to provide unprecedented stiffness and tight tolerances.
ADJUSTABLE BATTERY HOLD DOWNAA quick-release, dual-height battery mount accommodates a wide range of batteries including long format NiMH and LiPo battery packs.
WATERPROOF ALL-WEATHER PERFORMANCEBuilt to cruise fearlessly in the rain, the Hot Rods are no garage queens. Traxxas waterproof electronics take splashes in stride and give you the freedom to drive in all weather conditions.
2.1" SALT FLAT-STYLE WHEELSHighly-detailed matte black wheels with chrome rings give the Hot Rods a menacing look. The larger 2.1” diameter wheels and high-performance rubber provide improved stability and handling. The rear tires are also wider than the fronts for that classic hot rod stance.
30+ MPH TITAN POWERHigh-torque and Traxxas tough, the Titan® 550 motor and XL-5™ speed control give the Hot Rods powerful acceleration on the way to 30+mph. Just starting out? Activate Training Mode™ to cut speed and power by 50%.
PRECISION 2.4GHZ RADIO SYSTEMWith the TQ™ 2.4GHz radio system, you just switch it on and drive. There are no channels or frequencies to manage, so the focus is on having fun. The TQ’s ergonomic design is comfortable for all-day driving, and its sleek lines are enhanced by an internal antenna that is impervious to damage.
CLASSIC PROGRAPHIX BODYWhen you’re cruising down the boulevard, speed may be king, but style reigns supreme. The Traxxas Hot Rods deliver outrageous good looks with deep lustrous paint, wild graphics, and gleaming chrome accents to match their blistering performance.
REPLICA TYRES AND WHEELSLarger 4-Tec 3.0 tires and matte-black Salt Flat-style wheels with mirror chrome trim rings provide increased stability and improved handling. The replica brake discs incorporate standard 12 mm wheel hexes and feature red brake calipers.
CLIPLESS FRONT BODY MOUNTBoth Hot Rod bodies preserve their flowing hoodline without body posts using a front latch built into the shock tower. When it’s time to change the battery, just remove the two rear clips and the entire body slides off in seconds.
HIGH PERFORMANCE SUSPENSIONThe 4-Tec’s high tech suspension features bosses molded into the arms to adjust droop. Suspension droop is the amount of downward travel on the wheels. Droop adjustment allows the 4-Tec 3.0 to be tuned for better stability in the corners.
HEX HARDWAREThe 4-Tec 3.0 uses pro-quality, high-grade, metric hex-drive hardware throughout for extra strength and easy maintenance and repair. The black-oxide rust-resistant finish provides a high tech look and feel.
OIL-FILLED GTR SHOCKSThe 4-Tec 3.0 uses pro-quality, high-grade, metric hex-drive hardware throughout for extra strength and easy maintenance and repair. The black-oxide rust-resistant finish provides a high tech look and feel.
INTEGRATED SERVO SAVERConventional servo savers earned a reputation for sloppy steering in on-road cars. The 4-Tec 3.0 incorporates the servo saver into the horn for precise and responsive handling in all situations. An integrated collar allows the spring tension to be adjusted for personalized settings or track conditions.
HIGH-TORQUE WATERPROOF STEERING SERVOA high-performance hot rod needs a powerful steering servo for responsive performance, and Traxxas delivers with the 2075 high-torque servo. This waterproof steering servo uses O-ring seals to keep the fun going when things get wet. Waterproof for all-weather action, the TRX2075 provides 125 oz-in of steering muscle.
WATERPROOF RECEIVER BOXReal world driving requires dealing with the elements. The 4-Tec 3.0 comes fully protected with a patented waterproof receiver box. The innovative receiver box keeps the micro receiver dry, even in the worst weather.
MOULDED WIRE RETAINERA simple wire clip would look out of place with this high tech chassis. Traxxas engineers designed a trick molded wire retainer to keep wiring secured safely out of the way.
HIGH-CURRENT CONNECTORThe Traxxas iD® High-Current Connector funnels maximum power from your battery to the 4-Tec’s electronics. This innovative connector also enables your iD-equipped charger and battery to communicate. This ensures optimum charge settings specific to your battery for quicker, safer, more complete charging and extended battery life.
FIXED GEAR MESH SYSTEMSetting the perfect gear mesh can be a complicated and arduous process. Traxxas eliminates the hassle with its innovative fixed positioning system. Use the convenient chart included in the user manual to select the proper hole for your pinion gear.
RUBBER-SEALED BALL BEARINGSPrecise rubber-sealed bearings offer super low-friction performance and maximum protection in dusty environments. These virtually maintenance free bearings are used in all exposed locations on the car.
ONE-PIECE DRIVESHAFTSOne-piece steel driveshafts save weight and send power directly to the wheels for lightning quick response times. Extended drive cups allow for maximum articulation and ultimate durability.
STEEL CENTRE DRIVESHAFT4-Tec 3.0 distributes power to all four wheels through a one-piece center driveshaft. There are no dogbones to wear and no drive cups to wobble. The steel driveshaft runs straight and true with a center support bearing to handle the high RPM of Velineon brushless upgrades.
PROVEN SEALED DIFFERENTIALSThe 4-Tec 3.0 chassis features the same sealed, beveled-gear differential in the front and rear as the ultra-rugged Slash 4X4. Tune the performance by varying the viscosity of the fluid inside.
