Hobbies Direct recommends using the Traxxas’s 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.
Traxxas' patented Training Mode is a fantastic way to learn how to drive an RC car, once set to Training Mode the power output of the car gets reduced to 50%.
Traxxas Stability Management (also referred to as TSM) is included in Traxxas' latest receivers. It incorporates an advanced gyro system that detects when the wheels lose traction beyond the control of the user and instantly corrects it to keep you on course.
The Velineon VXL-3s speed control is loaded with high-grade technology to deliver maximum power to the motor. When running a LiPo battery, the two-stage low voltage detection prevents the battery from being over-discharged, and advanced circuit design gives smooth power delivery at any speed.
This RC car's power is delivered by Traxxas' mighty Velineon 3500kv brushless motor. Ultra-high-temperature Neodymium magnets, high-speed ball bearings, and a precision balanced rotor deliver power and long life with near zero maintenance.
The best connectors in the industry! Secure, easy to use, high-current, also has an RFID chip that tells the charger what settings to charge it on. Now that's one smart connector.

Traxxas' innovative Training Mode makes learning to drive an RC car a breeze! With a simple setting, power output is reduced by 50%, giving new drivers the perfect balance of control and excitement.
Traxxas Stability Management (TSM), now standard in Traxxas receivers, uses a built-in gyro to keep you in control. It senses when your vehicle loses traction and automatically corrects, ensuring you stay on track and in command.
The Velineon® 3500 kV brushless motor packs a punch with its ultra high-temperature Neodymium magnets, high-speed ball bearings, and a precision balanced rotor. This translates to both raw power and impressive longevity. Say goodbye to maintenance hassles thanks to the brushless design - no brushes or commutator to wear out. The Velineon 3500 consistently delivers high power, every time you hit the throttle.
The Velineon® VXL-3s forward/reverse electronic speed control makes brushless technology a breeze with its simple, built-in profiles. It operates just like the familiar Traxxas XL-5™ ESCs, so there's no learning curve. Exclusive patented Training Mode™ limits throttle to 50% for beginners, while advanced users can enjoy the power of 11.1-volt 3s LiPo batteries thanks to two-stage low voltage detection.
The Rustler’s large 2.8” black chrome wheels provide terrain-conquering ground clearance and a commanding presence. Talon™ EXT tyres have a square-shouldered, aggressive tread design to dig into gravel, dirt, and grass for incredible 4X4 traction and huge roost.

BUT, one major mistake, the driveshaft are extremely weak! After 3 day or about 4 batterys all 4 driveshafts and outdrives were stretched and bent and one melted at the ball joint, not well thought out!
