The Traxxas 1/18 scale TXC-4M™ Extreme Crawler revolutionizes RC crawling with its clean-sheet approach. An all-new monocoque chassis allowed Traxxas engineers to position the electronics and suspension for optimal weight distribution and geometry. The result is a radical new design with huge forward weight bias and massive ground clearance. Outfitted with only the best parts, TXC-4M delivers the competition-grade performance and extreme fun that could only come from Traxxas.
An extreme crawler needs an extreme power system and TXC-4M delivers with 11.1 volts of brushless 3s LiPo power. 3s power allows TXC-4M to run a high-reduction driveline for ultra-precise throttle control and exceptional torque with crawling speeds so low the rig appears motionless.
TXC-4M is purpose-built to deliver the ultimate crawling experience, due in part to its all-new chassis. TXC-4M’s monocoque chassis is both significantly lighter and more rigid than a traditional ladder frame. With no chassis flex, TXC-4M tracks straight and true even under extreme articulation.
TXC-4M delivers competition-grade steering performance with an exceptional 60° steering angle, tight turning radius, and laterally mounted 2265 metal-gear servo with 75 oz-in of torque. High-clearance steering and drag links allow TXC-4M to tackle the toughest lines without getting hung up on the rocks.
Portal axles lift TXC-4M at the wheels, giving it more ground clearance under the center pumpkins. Portal axles also limit torque twist by transferring gear reduction to the wheels and away from the differentials. With less torque twist, TXC-4M is more stable and less likely to twist itself off the rocks.
Huge 1.3” x 2.8” Stone Claw™ beadlock tires get TXC-4M up and over obstacles easily with an aggressive stepped-block tread design that maximizes biting edges. Molded in soft-compound rubber, Stone Claw tires grab onto rocks with unrivaled traction, outperforming even the best aftermarket tires.
TXC-4M includes a powerful 3-cell LiPo battery and fast USB charger. The compact battery puts out 11.1 volts of power for nearly limitless rock-climbing torque and high-rpm trail driving. The iD™ equipped charger balances the battery perfectly every time with no complicated settings to memorize.
