Innovative Chassis

The innovation designed into the Stampede 4X4 begins with a chassis that won't flex under load for arrow-straight, hard-charging acceleration. The chassis fully integrates the electronics and battery compartment for an efficient and compact layout, and maintains the high center ground clearance that gives Stampede 4X4 its tall stance and high-riding look. The extra clearance dramatically increases the off-road versatility that allows you to tackle rough terrain and large obstacles. The Stampede 4X4 feels planted and secure at speed, even on pavement and in other high-grip conditions. Stampede 4X4 is 100% monster truck, but it handles like a racing machine! Underneath, the chassis is ultra-smooth to reduce drag and prevent snags driving through brush.

Waterproof Electronics

Only Traxxas lets you experience 4WD excitement year-round, no matter what Mother Nature has to offer. Water, mud, and snow don't slow down the Stampede 4X4; its electronic speed control, receiver box, and high-torque digital steering servo are all waterproof for no-worry fun in wet conditions that send other trucks running for cover. Drive the Stampede 4X4 where you want, when you want—the only limit is your imagination.

Titan^® 12-Turn 550 Modified Motor

The Stampede 4x4 kit includes a powerful Titan 12T 550 modified motor with internal cooling fan. The Titan's over-sized armature (30% larger compared to 540-sized armatures) is equipped with 12-turns of pure copper wire for big torque and increased power-handling capabilities. Lower running temperatures are achieved with the integrated cooling fan. The Titan 12T requires very little maintenance and is designed for consistent torque and high speeds from run to run, without fading.

Beyond the specs, the Titan 12T is made for rock crushing torque, hardcore wheelie launches, explosive jumping, and just about any other 4-wheel fun that demands real horsepower.

XL-5 Waterproof Electronic Speed Control

Designed and engineered by Traxxas, the XL-5 Electronic Speed Control handles the elements while smoothly supplying power to the motor. This high-performance ESC is packed with impressive specifications that are normally only found on more expensive high-end replacement units. The XL-5 features a completely waterproof design, three throttle profiles, low voltage detection, Thermal Shutdown Protection, 4-7 cell NiMH and 2-cell LiPo compatibility, and built-in BEC. High frequency operation combined with ultra-low resistance make the XL-5 an efficient and ultra-smooth fully proportional speed control. An exclusive feature on the XL-5 is the patented Training Mode™. This profile reduces the overall power output of the XL-5 by 50% making it easier for young or new drivers to develop their control skills before unleashing full-power operation. The XL-5 is manufactured by Traxxas to ensure the highest level of quality and support.

Precision 2.4GHz Control
Switch on the power and drive! That's all there is to it with the TQ™ 2.4GHz radio system. There are no frequencies to manage, so the focus is on having fun. Race multiple vehicles side by side without interference. The TQ's advanced programming provides long-range control with smooth, glitch-free performance. The TQ's ergonomic design is comfortable for all day driving with an internal antenna that is impervious to damage.

Modular Simplicity

Old designs made servicing of 4-wheel drive vehicles cumbersome and time-consuming. Traxxas has a better way. Modular design allows the entire front section to be removed with just 5 screws, and the rear assembly with just 4 screws. In less than a minute using a power screwdriver, you have full access for easy service and adjustment.

High-Torque Waterproof Steering Servo

An all-terrain truck needs a powerful steering servo for responsive performance, and Traxxas delivers with the #2056 high-torque servo. This waterproof steering servo uses O-ring seals to keep the fun going when things get wet. Waterproof for all-weather action, the #2056 servo provides 80 oz-in of steering muscle. That's twice the power of typical "standard" servos.

Waterproof Receiver Box

Stampede 4X4's innovative receiver box is fully waterproof, yet it's easy to access the receiver. The unique patented design holds a 3-channel micro receiver that saves weight and provides reliable, long-range RC performance.

Soft Compound 2.8” Chevron Maxx Tires

The soft-compound Chevron Maxx™ tires maximize performance for all-terrain traction. On dirt, the treads claw for traction, providing superior forward bite and massive roosts, and on pavement, the forgiving side grip allows the tire to power-slide while maintaining a sure-footed neutral feel.

Chrome All-Star Wheels  The Stampede 4X4's 2.8" All-Star™ chrome wheels feature a horizontal bead configuration that holds the tire to the rim even under extreme rpm. Performance-designed foam inserts come standard in the kit.

Oil-Filled Ultra Shocks

High-speed off-road action requires rugged, responsive shocks that can take a lot of abuse. The Ultra Shock's high-volume body yields large oil capacity, and a silicone bladder separates oil from air within the shock for consistent damping action, even during all-day off-road sessions. Dual X-ring seals give super-smooth performance without weeping or leaking, and Ultra Shocks are fully tunable with a wide range of oils, springs, and pistons.

Powder Coated White Springs

The springs feature an optimized spring rate for responsive handling and the long-lasting white powder coated finish sets the Stampede 4X4 apart from the pack.

Single-Screw Motor Access

Stampede 4X4 features a unique mount that holds the motor securely yet releases instantly with just one screw. Gear-mesh adjustments are fast and easy and the motor can be removed in just seconds.

Sealed Steel-Gear Differentials

Stampede 4X4's differentials represent the state of the art in power handling and efficiency. Steel gears in the differentials are ready to handle brushless power without costly upgrades. Silicone gaskets and X-ring seals allow the diffs to be tuned for specific running conditions by varying the viscosity of the fluid inside them. Differential access for tuning is quick and easy. Just remove the front or rear cover and the entire differential slides right out.

Long-Travel Suspension

Stampede 4X4 has huge amounts of seemingly bottomless, ultra-plush suspension travel for suspension action that swallows up jumps and delivers incredible rough-track control. The fully-optimized front axle carrier is a result of computer modeling that allowed engineers to design for maximum articulation without binding or interference. Tight steering response is always there, even at the extreme ranges of the suspension travel. Double-shear tie rods and camber links simply can't pop off, so you always stay in control. Robust construction wards off crash damage, and oversized 10x15 mm inboard bearings and 5x11 mm outboard bearings are incredibly durable and smooth.

Heavy-Duty Driveshafts

Stampede 4X4's telescoping, universal-joint driveshafts allow for maximum suspension movement resulting in longer travel and tighter turning. Extra material and design tweaks greatly increase torque handling.

Optimum-Geometry Steering with Integrated Servo Saver

No part of Stampede 4X4 was overlooked in the quest for durability, precision, and performance. The dual-bellcrank design pivots smoothly in the harshest conditions, and an integrated cam-type servo saver protects the steering servo from crash impacts without sacrificing steering precision.

Heavy-Duty 32-Pitch Gears

Extreme brushless horsepower is never an afterthought at Traxxas. The Stampede 4X4 driveline is built to handle power for today and accommodate future power upgrades down the road. The spur gear features rugged 0.8 module/32-pitch teeth for total reliability no matter how much power you pour on.

3 mm Steel Turnbuckles

Stampede 4X4's tough 3 mm steel turnbuckles have broad flats that make it easy to set toe-in. Both the steel turnbuckles and composite camber links feature captured rod ends that won't pop off during rigorous off-road pounding.

Torque-Control™ Slipper Clutch

The Stampede 4X4's patented slipper clutch uses semi-metallic friction material and finned aluminum alloy pressure plates to dissipate heat and provide consistent traction control. The slipper adjusts easily without disassembly or removal, and the unique 3-pad design is proven rugged in Traxxas' most powerful vehicles. It's also the perfect complement to Velineon brushless power, offering the ultimate in traction control.

Clear Body

The Stampede's fully-trimmed clear body lets you design and paint your own custom creation. The kit includes decals and window masking for professional looking results.
