The Traxxas Slash defined the Short Course truck segment when it was introduced and set the standard for durability, performance, and technology. Traxxas engineers expanded Slash 4X4’s performance, adding even more cutting-edge technology to its brutal brushless power. Traxxas Stability Management® combines with the Low-CG chassis to make Slash 4X4 incredibly agile and easily controllable. On Board Audio adds amazing realism with the sound and fury of a 900 horsepower Traxxas team truck. With just one drive you will see why the Traxxas Slash 4X4 elevates Short Course performance to a whole new level.
On-Board Audio System
The On-Board Audio System uses sound that has been sampled from Traxxas team trucks, including the Traxxas Pro 4 short course truck driven by Traxxas' Mike Jenkins. The ON/OFF button and volume controls let you adjust the system settings, stealth mode to wide-open. The system uses a minimal amount of power from the battery so your runtime is not compromised. The intuitive sounds respond to throttle input from the transmitter. Cruise around or rip full-throttle to hear the difference in engine RPM. If you're stopped for more than 10 seconds, the engine will shut off. Just tap the throttle to hear the engine fire back up! Use the rocker switch on the included 3-channel transmitter to shift to "neutral" and hear the engine revving. Flip the switch, and launch back into racing.
Equipped with Low-CG Chassis
Slash 4X4's performance refinements begin with Low-CG (low center of gravity) chassis that's unlike anything you've seen before. The battery and electronics are held as deep in the chassis as possible to position weight low Slash 4X4 OBA TSM (Low-CG Chassis) in the chassis. Arrow-straight, hard-charging acceleration with extreme brushless power and 4WD requires a chassis that won't flex under load. To offer the necessary rigidity, the chassis is reinforced by integrated ribs that form a triangulated structure optimized for the loads imparted by the suspension and powertrain. Underneath, the chassis is ultra-smooth to reduce drag and prevent snags whether you're blasting through whoops on the track or blazing trails in your backyard. The low-CG design dramatically increases corner speed and stability no matter where you drive. On the racecourse, Slash 4X4's low center of gravity allows high-output Velineon brushless power to be channeled into the track with superior traction, resulting in harder launches and faster lap times.
