INSTALLING THE BATTERY PACK

Install the battery pack with 
the battery wires facing the 
rear of the model. Insert the 
tabs of the battery hold-
down into the slots in the 
rear hold-down retainer and 
then place the battery hold-
down over the post. Secure 
the battery hold-down with 
body clip in the hole in the 
post.  Do not connect the 
battery pack yet.

Using Different Battery Configuration

The battery hold-downs are capable of accommodating either side-by-
side racing style packs or the more common stick packs. The battery 
compartments are configured for stick packs from the factory. The 
number on each side of the hold down indicates the battery height 
in millimeters that hold-down can accommodate. Note that one side 
is labeled “25” and other side is labeled “23”. The 25mm side is for use 
with typical stick type battery packs. If you are using side-by-side racing 
packs, simply flip the hold-down over to the 23mm side and use it on the 
opposite side of the chassis. Your model includes a foam block which 
should be installed in front of 6-cell batteries for a more secure fit. 

The Traxxas High Current Connector

Your model is equipped with the patented 
Traxxas High-Current Connector. Standard 
connectors restrict current flow and are not 
capable of delivering the power needed 
to maximize the output of the Velineon 
Brushless Power system.

The Traxxas connector’s gold-plated terminals with a large contact 

surfaces ensure positive current flow with the least amount of 
resistance. Secure, long-lasting, and easy to grip, the Traxxas connector 
is engineered to extract all the power your battery has to give.

Using Other Batteries

Your model is equipped with a state of the art, high-performance 
power system. It is designed to be able to flow large amounts 
power with the least amount of restriction. The benefits are 
drastically increased speed and acceleration. However, this 
places extra demands on the battery and electrical system 
connections. For best performance, your model requires the use 
of NiMH battery packs that have cells rated for high discharge 
and use high-quality, low-resistance  assembly techniques, such 
as the included Traxxas Power Cell Battery Pack. Cheaply made 
battery packs do not retain their performance characteristics 
after repeated uses in high-powered electric applications. They 
will lose their punch and run time and may require frequent 
replacement. In addition, poor-quality, high-resistance cell 
connectors could fail, requiring disassembly and repair. The 
main goal is to reduce all sources of high resistance in the pack. 
This includes the connector, the wire, and the 
bars attaching the cells together. High 
pack resistance will create additional 
heat and rob you of the full power the 
cells are capable of producing.  We 
recommend using Traxxas Power Cell 
batteries for best performance.
