Features

  • Extreme 4s Power
    Jato 4X4 packs the same Velineon 540XL brushless motor found in the Maxx® extreme monster truck. It's the largest motor Traxxas has ever offered in a buggy, and it's backed by a new VXL-4s™ speed control with built-in telemetry and selectable 6.0 or 7.4-volt BEC. With 4s LiPo power on tap, Jato 4X4 VXL defies the laws of physics as it rockets its way to 60 mph and beyond with unrelenting acceleration.
  • Track-Ready Handling
    Jato 4X4 VXL sits low and wide, concentrating its weight below the driveshafts for razor-sharp handling and perfect weight distribution. Aluminum XX-long GTR shocks in the front and rear maximize traction by keeping Jato 4X4 VXL's ultra-soft Response Pro tires in constant contact with the ground. Add the optional sway bar kit (sold separately) for flat cornering and game-changing track performance.
  • Extreme Strength
    Factory-installed Extreme Heavy Duty driveline and suspension components give Jato 4X4 VXL all the durability of Traxxas' toughest offroad trucks. An aluminum T-Bar reinforces the chassis with Extreme HD shock towers to support the suspension. Huge Maxx-Duty® driveshafts transform the 540XL motor's brutal torque into massive 4-wheel roost without breaking a sweat.
  • Clipless Buggy Body
    Jato 4X4 VXL's form-fitted clipless body cuts through the wind and eliminates the parachuting effect for stable performance at speed. Tough clipless side latches hold the body securely in place but release in just seconds for fast battery swaps. Jato 4X4 VXL incorporates the high-downforce wing from Sledge® to keep its chassis planted with rugged rollover protection as an added benefit.
  • High-Resolution Linear Braking
    High-Resolution Linear Braking delivers next-level smoothness and precision with instant response for powerful and intuitive linear braking feel. From feather touch speed correction to full-power late braking, the driver stays fully connected and in control for a competitive edge. The optional Traxxas Link app adds easy control over brake force to tune for different needs and conditions.
  • Unparalleled Strength
    Jato 4X4 VXL is purpose-built for 4s power with Traxxas' toughest Extreme Heavy Duty Upgrade Kit pre-installed. These massively reinforced suspension and driveline components work together as a complete package to give Jato 4X4 VXL unparalleled strength. Combined with Traxxas' HD suspension arms, Jato 4X4 VXL delivers next-level durability on and off the track.
  • Low-CG Chassis
    Jato 4X4 VXL's long wheelbase and wide track width keep it planted in the corners for exceptional high-speed precision. The innovative low-CG chassis concentrates weight below the driveshafts for neutral handling and maximum agility.
  • Clipless Convenience
    Jato 4X4 VXL's rugged clipless latching system delivers secure body mounting for maximum track speed and 60 mph speed runs. Four rigid clips hold the body tightly to the chassis, but release in just seconds. Battery changes are fast and easy with no body clips to lose.
  • Maxx-Duty 4X4 Drivetrain
    The shaft-driven four-wheel-drive system is a model of strength and efficiency with a splined aluminum center driveshaft and tough center differential. Steel-gear differentials in the front and rear feed power to the wheels through huge Maxx-Duty driveshafts with upgraded U-joints.
  • One-Piece Camber and Toe Links
    Jato 4X4 VXL uses one-piece, heavy-duty camber and toe links with double-shear camber link mounts on the shock towers for added strength. This energy-absorbing design allows the links to return to shape if flexed and they won't pull apart in a crash. The links are already pre-set for track-worthy handling with optimal settings.
  • Modular Chassis
    Jato 4X4 VXL's modular chassis features front and rear bulkheads that remove easily with just a few screws. In less than a minute using a power screwdriver, you'll have full access for easy service and adjustment.
  • Extreme 4s Power
    Jato 4X4 VXL launches hard and fast on its way to 60+ mph, powered by the same big block Velineon 540XL motor found in the Maxx monster truck. The advanced Velineon VXL-4s™ ESC not only puts down the power, but it also has built-in telemetry for real-time speed, temperature, and voltage data. An extra-large heat sink allows the ESC to run cooler for extended run times.

  • High-Voltage BEC
    The Velineon VXL-4s features a high-voltage BEC with a 6.0 volt setting for standard servos and powerful 7.4 volt setting for high-performance servos like the Traxxas 2280, 2255, and 2250. Powerful brushless servos like the High-Torque 600 gain over 20% more torque at 7.4 volts with faster transit times. Selecting a voltage is quick and easy using the Traxxas Link app.
  • TQi Radio System
    The high-output Traxxas TQi™ 2.4 GHz radio system delivers superior range, precision, and control. It is Traxxas Link enabled so you can add a Wireless Module (part 6511, sold separately) and connect wirelessly to the Traxxas Link™ app using your smart phone. Use it to customize your settings and view real time telemetry from the VXL-4s speed control.
  • Traxxas Stability Management
    Traxxas Stability Management® (TSM) makes it easy for anyone to experience full 60+ mph 4s Velineon horsepower. TSM works behind the scenes to control oversteer, avoid spinouts, and keep the focus on high-performance fun. TSM is also fully defeatable for racing classes where assistance is prohibited.
  • Adjustable Battery Hold-Down
    An adjustable battery hold-down accommodates Traxxas' 5000 mAh 4-cell LiPo battery for huge 14.4-volt power and long run times. Use the included optional short post to install smaller 2-cell or 3-cell packs. Shorter battery packs can be positioned forward or backward for front/rear weight bias tuning.
  • Waterproof Electronics
    Your RC experience should be filled with fun and adventure, not limited by the electronics. Traxxas' patented waterproof technology gives you the freedom to live out your wildest adventures, regardless of the weather.
