When you create the world’s most powerful Ready-To-Run® vehicles, off-the-shelf components just won’t do. Traxxas engineers started from scratch to create the ultimate Maxx®-Truck ESC to drive the thundering Big Block motor. Heavy-duty does not begin to describe the waterproof VXL-8s electronic speed control. This is Maxx-duty!
Features
Internal temperature sensor with integrated cooling fan and two-stage thermal shutdown protection protect the VXL-8s from overheating
Bright multi-color LED status lights provide clear feedback
Built-in two-stage low voltage detection for Lithium Polymer (LiPo) batteries use provides a clear signal to the driver that the batteries are nearing their minimum voltage threshold
Wide range of LiPo battery options from 3s packs up to full-power 4s LiPo packs
The patented Training Mode™ is an exclusive Traxxas feature that reduces the overall power output of the VXL-8s by 50%, making it easier for inexperienced drivers to control their model. When you’re ready, simply change profiles to unleash full-throttle action
The EZ-Set® push-button setup operates and programs just like other Traxxas speed controls—eliminating the need to learn a new set of procedures
The VXL-8s is programmable with three drive profiles:
Sport Mode – Fwd / Brake / Rev
Race Mode – Fwd / Brake
Training Mode** – 50% Fwd / Brake / 50% Rev
Patented Traxxas High-Current Connectors eliminates a common bottleneck and maintain pure, unrestricted power flow from the batteries to the brushless power system
Locked Rotor Protection™ prevents system damage by cutting power if the vehicle is stuck or the motor is bound
Battery Over-Voltage Protection™ causes the ESC to go into failsafe mode if the maximum input voltage is exceeded
Water resistant case design uses rubber seals and O-rings to protect against damage caused by water and moisture
Gold plated 6.5 mm bullet connectors on ultra-efficient Maxx® Cable flow full power to the motor without performance strangling resistance
