Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the new Traxxas E-Maxx electric monster
truck. When it comes to gut-wrenching, wheelie-popping monster
torque, nothing comes close to E-Maxx. We are confident you will
appreciate the latest performance and appearance enhancements
that have been made to this legendary model. With tough twin
Titan
®
550 motors and a powerful EVX-2 electronic speed control,
the E-Maxx is built for rock-stomping action. The new chassis and
water-resistant electronics are made to take abuse. Even innovative
technology from our top-of-the-line Revo
®
has found it’s way into
E-Maxx in the form of the patent-pending Torque-Control
™
slipper
and sealed driveshafts.
