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.
