Traxxas sets the standard for power, performance and innovation. Now, for the first time, all the speed, quality and capability you expect from Traxxas is available in 1/16 scale with the new 1/16 E-Revo VXL. At 14 inches long, E-Revo VXL is about half the size of the 1/10-scale E-Revo. But don't call it a "mini"—this is a whole new category of R/C performance and fun that no mere mini-model can match. Beneath the factory-finished polycarbonate shell, you'll find the winning suspension technology of the seven-time National Champion Traxxas Revo®, screaming Velineon® brushless-motor power, and the convention-busting innovation of the E-Revo.

No detail was overlooked in our mission to bring all the capability, durability, and excitement of Traxxas' award-winning models to 1/16 scale for fast, affordable R/C fun. The E-Revo VXL is built on the race-winning, track-proven innovation of the Revo and E-Revo models. The standard-bearer of design excellence, the Revo's F1-inspired, rocker-actuated suspension has been expertly adapted to 1/16 scale with all its functionality and performance intact, right down to the oil-filled, threaded-body GTR shocks. This superior technology provides capability, performance, and tuning functions at the absolute pinnacle of truck design. The suspension and electronics are fully integrated into the semi-monocoque chassis design that stunned the world when it debuted with the E-Revo. Intricately molded as a single piece, the chassis balances strength and weight, function and aesthetics, convenience and performance to far surpass the standards of the "mini" category. In 1/16 scale, it is an even more impressive achievement of packaging and performance optimization that could only come from Traxxas.

this truck handle great put on j concept beadlock wheel and holeshot tire and run venom 2000 lipo battery. very fast also put in center diff to keep the front end down for racing. -//- Does anyone know of any rim that will fit on this i tryed mini Crt rim but they did not fit. i want a solid white or yellow rim . -//- Fun Car runs good on stock battery the only thing that need work is the shocks they are really soft. i changed the shock oil and it made a big difference in the handleing. but it still bottom out when you jump it.

Excellent truck!!! Totally crazy fast. For your tire issue... I'd reccomend checking out proline. They have a package deal for Dirt Hawgs on beadlock wheels just for this little guy

The 1/16 E-Revo is nothing short of amazing when properly setup. This thing drives like a 1/10 scale on the road. 2x the fun of my slash and durable as all hell! I still have yet to break anything!!! I have run 4s/3s/2s lipos and 2s is plenty to have fun with most of the time. Speed runs you will want 3s. And OMG 4s is rediculous. This thing is also suprisingly stable at 55mph for 1/16 scale car. All I can say is ditch all your cars and buy this one. It's small and portible and packs one hell of a punch. Spend a couple hundred on batteries and suspension upgrades. Def change the fluid and springs asap. Tan springs f/r w/ 50wt in front and 70wt in rear. Enjoy - I know you will :)

This thing is a little speed daemon great fun crazy fast but you cant make it one battery with out breaking. A-arms are junk overall fun but you will spend lots on parts and will never be able to drive long without broken parts.

Omg this little beast is pure fun to drive and bash with. It has good speed with the included nimh battery. I went to two 1500nimh batteries in series and wow just insane power and speed. Than for curiosity sake I went with two 2s 1550 lipo packs wired in parallel and all I can say is holy cow...I was giggling the whole time I got on the throttle. Words can't describe how ridiculously fast this little rocket can shoot pass you. Rolling wheelies? No problem. Now I can say been there, done that. They should start making a race class just for these, lol.

Over the years I have had to many radio controlled cars to count and this one by far is the best one yet. I've never owned more than one of the same vehicle, but I will have a handful of these. What a blast..
Great Job Traxxas!!

Traxxas 1/16 E-Revo VXL 4WD Brushless Truck (w/Battery & Wall Charger)
36.7mph on flightmax 2200mah 2s 20c, 20 minute runtimes, very durable, 4wd, very fast, 12mm hubs, great jumper, cheap batteries. The flightmax lipos cost under $25 shipped! 6cell nimh cost under $25 shipped. I am happy with 36.7mph and 20 minute runtimes so I have never run in series or parallel. This truck can do over 65mph if you know what youre doing. With lipo you can do rolling wheelies! Even the included NImh can do wheelies! I have crashed it alot and not broken anything! I did add a second servo to get the steering a little tighter and I did wear through one front skidplate from jumping on concrete and wore through the front body post from skidding upside down. I jump this at the skate park with my full size BL revo and it jumps almost as well. In a drag race it smokes my full size BL revo which has 4s 5000mah. I purchased a second one for spares parts because I dont want to have down time with this-I love driving it! 4wd goes places my 1/10 2wd cannot. 1/16 slash bodies fit if you notch the rear for the wing! Waterproof too! Be sure to waterproof your batteries and connectors though.

Coolest thing to come out in a long time. These little guys rip around the track. Ditch the stock tires and it's very capable right out of the box. A bunch of 1/8 racers were fighting over driving this little revo last night at the track. Batteries are cheap and gets excellent run times. Faster than it needs to be... wheelies on demand down the straights. Probably one of my favorite toys of all time. Great job Traxxas!!

Traxxas 1/16 E-Revo VXL 4WD Brushless Truck (w/Battery & Wall Charger)
I got this truck a week after it was released from my local hobby shop and all I can say is its the best money I've spent on any of my RC's. Got two tenergy 1400s(combo pack) for it and then a few days later a series connector. On one 6 cell it does about 30mph and wheelies almost on demand then on 12 cells the madness begins. Standing flips(horrible for your drivetrain) and wheelies on demand, I have trouble keeping it on its lid. Easily 50+mph and extremely tough. Waterproof? Yes no doubt about it. As for durability, driving about 50mph yesterday then started to slow but it turned slightly, sideswiped the curb, flipped and tumbled multiple times before landing shiny side up(correct landing) and driving away with nothing but a few scratches and a bent body clip. 5/5 is what I rate this truck everyone go out and buy one today!

I have to agree with the others it is a strong little truck with more power than you can ever want. I'm looking forward to the upgrades like real push rods and toe arms. I love the layout of the truck (same as big revo), Battery trays leaves a lot of opions for batteries. Only tip I would give is keep it on the dirt with a 3s lipo or expect many many flips and road rash. Its a good thing the wings come with a small price. Over all nothing about that truck that doesn't bring smiles.

Traxxas 1/16 E-Revo VXL 4WD Brushless Truck (w/Battery & Wall Charger)
This little thing is simply an awsome little truck. No shortage of power at all. Runs great on 2S, even better on 3S and its ballistic on 4S. Gets a little warm on 4S but I fitted cooling fans to motor/ESC, heatsink for the motor and it seems to hold together. Wish it had programable launch control for a little bit more of a linear acceleration, especialy for dirt and loose surface. Also the drive shafts could be a bit more durable but then again I am running it on 4S and it was not designed for that. It does get a little unstable as you start to approch 50mph but still very good for its scale. If used the way traxxas intended it to be used you will not have any problems. Tough little unit. Did a few big crashes and some cartwheels at 50mph(or there abouts) and it pulled up ok. Maybe when you order one get a spare wing as this is the part that has taken the biggest pounding on my.(must all those wheelis) Well Traxxas, you have done very well and you havn't soild the Revo name. I was worried that this little thing may not be able to take the punishment or perform the way its bigger brother does but was very wrong to think so and I am very glad I got one. Thanks Traxxas. Also a big thanks to A Main for the excellent service. Took less than 48 hours from payment to it being delivered in Australia. Thats great service in anyones books.

This is by far the best mini on the market! The only problem is that you have to learn to feather the throttle just a little bit, otherwise you'll just do a standing backflip. I run a 11.1v lipo in it and it FLIES!!!! One of the coolest things ever is when your rc can do a backflip , but this is the only truck I've ever seen do a frontflip. It has THAT MUCH tourque. And this truck, like the 1/16 slash, is waterproof. So a waterproof mini thats 4wd, brushless, looks awsome, goes 50+mph,and is under $300. Easily the only mini you'll ever need!
