The Traxxas 1/10 Craniac is based off the Traxxas Stampede 2WD chassis and is the perfect truck to get you started in the great hobby of RC (Radio Control).

The Titan 12T 550 motor has an inbuilt cooling fan reducing running temperatures, which allows faster speeds and longer run times without having to worry about overheating. Precise control is easy with the included 2.4GHz TQ radio system.

Hobbies Direct recommends using Traxxas' patented Training Mode as it limits the power output of the model to 50%, which makes practising much easier and safer and is also a great idea when giving your friends a try.

Hobbies Direct stocks 100% of the spare parts for the Traxxas 1/10 Craniac, meaning more fun-time and less down-time.
