1/8 Sledge with Belted Sledgehammer Tires Ready to Run (Orange) (TRA95096-4-ORNG)
1/8 Sledge with Belted Sledgehammer Tires Ready to Run (Orange) (TRA95096-4-ORNG)
The Traxxas Sledge redefines the 1/8 scale off-road experience with cutting-edge engineering and unparalleled durability. Designed for extreme 6s LiPo power, the Sledge delivers over 70+ mph top speeds and dominates with a robust drivetrain, precision handling, and rugged durability. Equipped with belted Sledgehammer® tires, this truck offers unmatched stability, control, and traction across all terrains, limiting tire expansion for precise high-speed performance.
The Sledge’s superior chassis strength features a triangulated structure with a 3.2 mm ribbed aluminum plate, multi-point composite truss system, and the patent-pending full-length T-Bar™ for maximum rigidity and durability. Heavy-duty front and rear braces combine with shock towers made from 5 mm thick 6061-T6 aluminum, creating a chassis that stands up to intense impacts and demanding conditions.
Powered by the Velineon® 2000 Kv brushless motor and VXL-6s ESC, the Sledge offers incredible acceleration and mid-range punch. The motor is securely mounted with an aluminum cradle, reducing flex for enhanced gear life. The Torque-Biasing Center Drive ensures consistent power distribution, while the steel-gear differentials and steel center driveshafts handle the immense power with ease.
The Sledge’s suspension is engineered for performance, featuring GT-Maxx® aluminum shocks with X-ring seals, heavy-duty composite suspension arms, and oversized camber and toe links. The belted Sledgehammer® tires with open tread blocks provide exceptional grip and responsive handling, while the high-downforce wing enhances aerodynamics and stability during wheelies.
The clipless ProGraphix® body system allows for quick and secure installation, while the rigid internal frame and reinforced body skids protect against wear and tear. With a waterproof 2275 metal-gear servo delivering over 20 pounds of torque, precise and reliable steering is guaranteed in any conditions.
Designed for versatility, the Sledge accommodates a range of battery configurations with a quick-release battery tray for seamless changes. The innovative drivetrain features sealed, oversized bearings and a fixed gear mesh system for smooth, efficient operation. Integrated telemetry and real-time feedback are available through the TQi™ 2.4 GHz radio system.
The Traxxas Sledge is Ready-To-Race® out of the box, including the VXL-6s ESC, 2000 Kv motor, TQi radio system, and maintenance tools. Dual 3s LiPo batteries and a Traxxas EZ-Peak® Live charger are recommended for optimal performance. Experience unmatched power, control, and fun with the Sledge, the ultimate 1/8 scale off-road monster truck.
