Nothing beats the power of a proven winner like the top-selling Traxxas Rustler RTR Stadium Truck with XL-5 ESC. It's rugged, fun, and unbelievably fast. The Rustler is just another example of Traxxas blowing the doors off the competition with the ultimate combination of power, handling and performance in an R/C truck. The power delivered to the wheels starts inside with the giant Titan 12-turn 550 modified motor and the easily programmable XL-5 Electronic Speed Control. The Titan's power allows the Traxxas Rustler to dominate off-road, and the XL-5 ESC gives the flexibility of Sport, Race and Training Modes.

The Training Mode is one of the most impressive advancements in this technology-packed truck as it makes the Rustler a truck truly perfect for all ages and skill levels. What the Training Mode does is limit the total power output to the motor by 50%, so beginners don't get overwhelmed by the speed and sensitivity of the throttle trigger. Then, when they have gotten the hang of handling such an amazing machine, they can set the truck back to Sport or Race Mode to unleash the full might of this electronics system.
You will be amazed at the innovation and features that come standard on the Traxxas Rustler. For smooth operation and consistent traction control, Traxxas has included their Revo-spec Torque-Control slipper clutch. The lower center-of-gravity (CG) design allows for faster cornering and better control and handling on a variety of surfaces. Also working to keep the CG low is a lay-down mounting design for the steering servo. Delivering all of the Rustler's power to the wheels is a remarkable variable-ratio transmission that is incredibly efficient. And, all of the guts of this truck are carefully balanced and assembled on an ultra-rigid fiber-composite chassis making the Rustler ready for whatever punishment you dish out.
The Traxxas Rustler XL-5 comes ready-to-run with a 7-cell NiMh battery and charger so all you have to do is charge the battery and start racing. With a top speed of over 35mph and such sophisticated performance and handling, the Ruster is a truck that is perfect for anyone and allows you to make a race track anywhere you want to drive.
