The Traxxas Bandit XL-5 RC Buggy is a 1/10 scale 2WD buggy that's built for speed, durability, and all-weather fun. This Ready-to-Race® machine comes fully assembled and includes everything you need to hit the ground running, including a battery and charger.
The Bandit is powered by a Titan® 12T 550 motor and waterproof XL-5 electronic speed control, delivering exhilarating speed and acceleration. Its heavy-duty suspension components and Magnum 272™ transmission are built to withstand aggressive driving, while the waterproof electronics let you conquer any terrain, rain or shine. With its sleek design and user-friendly features, the Bandit is perfect for drivers of all skill levels.
The Bandit's powerful Titan 12T 550 motor is made for dirt-roosting torque, lightning-quick acceleration, big-air jumps, and just about any other 4-wheel fun that demands real horsepower. The Titan's over size armature features 12 turns of pure copper wire for big torque and increased power-handling. The integrated cooling fan pulls cool air through the motor to keep temperatures down for more fun behind the wheel. The Titan 12T requires very little maintenance and provides consistent torque and high speeds run-after-run.
Unleash the full potential of your TRX-4 or TRX-6 with the high-voltage XL-5™ HV electronic speed control. Harness the power of 3S LiPo batteries and navigate any terrain with confidence. Choose from multiple driving profiles including Sport, Race, Training Mode™, Trail (with smooth drag brake), and Crawl (with hill hold and instant reverse). No matter the challenge, the waterproof XL-5™ HV ESC delivers the power and control you need.
Bandit's LED lighting extends your fun long after dark. Four brilliant white lights illuminate the path ahead, while dual red LED's let you track Bandit's progress from behind. The lights are protected behind rugged bumpers and the entire system is waterproof for worry-free performance.
Switch on the power and drive! That's all there is to it with the TQ™ 2.4GHz radio system. There are no frequencies to manage, so the focus is on having fun. Race multiple vehicles side by side without interference. The TQ's advanced programming provides long-range control with smooth, glitch-free performance. The TQ's ergonomic design is comfortable for all day driving, with an internal antenna that is impervious to damage.
A high speed race buggy needs a powerful steering servo for responsive performance, and Traxxas delivers with the #2056 high-torque servo. This waterproof steering servo uses O-ring seals to keep the fun going when things get wet. Waterproof for all-weather action, the #2056 provides 80 oz-in of steering muscle.
The included iD-equipped 3000mAh, 8.4V, Power Cell NiMH battery delivers all the performance that's been engineered into your Traxxas model. Power Cell batteries deliver free-flowing power and maximum punch with premium quality construction. Optional Traxxas iD chargers (sold separately) auto-detect Traxxas iD Power Cell batteries and automatically set and optimize charge settings for unmatched charging safety and simplicity. For even greater speed and runtime, a full line of optional NiMH and LiPo batteries are available.
Bandit includes a 4-amp peak detecting charger for quick, convenient, hassle-free charging. The charger uses a 12-Volt DC power outlet for charging charging in the field. The brilliant LED provides charging status while the battery charges. The peak-detecting charger is optimized for charging Traxxas Power Cell NiMH battery packs. Just plug the included Power Cell battery in for a perfect charge, run after run.
The TQ 2.4GHz micro receiver uses an integrated LINK button for fast and easy binding. A two-colour LED indicates power-on and bind status for fool-proof control and convenience. In the event of signal loss, the receiver will automatically return the throttle to neutral and hold the last commanded steering position. The Fail Safe programming is conveniently built-in and does not need to be set or activated.
The Bandit's fully trimmed and painted ProGraphix bodies turn heads everywhere they go with their stunning looks and bold paint designs. Decals come pre-applied to save you time and get you driving just minutes out of the box. Traxxas' ProGraphix bodies are the hottest looking bodies around and are only available on Traxxas Ready-to-Race® models.
The Torque-Control slipper clutch provides smooth and consistent traction control, thanks to its semi-metallic friction pads and finned aluminium pressure plates. This design ensures reliable performance and allows for easy spur gear changes without affecting the slipper adjustment.
Bandit's oil-filled Ultra Shocks utilize X-ring technology for a perfect seal and silky-smooth performance. They are easy to customize with a wide range of high-performance oils, springs, and pistons available. Features include pressure bladders for air/oil separation and spring clips to change precisely the ride height and spring pre-load tension. If their performance ever fades, refresh them in minutes with our inexpensive rebuild kits.
