The Traxxas Bandit™ redefines traditional buggy performance by creating
a whole new class of Extreme Sports Buggy™. Bandit offers the highest
levels of speed, action, and fun that will easily make it one of your
favorites for all kinds of R/C driving excitement. The lightweight
Bandit chassis is loaded with an aggressive Titan® 12-Turn modified
motor and a high-current XL-5 Electronic Speed Control that deliver
lightning-fast acceleration and incredible 35+mph* performance. Bandit
is simply the fastest Ready-To-Race® electric buggy available. Pull the
trigger and Bandit rips massive rooster tails, soars over giant jumps,
and lays down the power for pure performance and excitement at every
turn. Bandit is infused with the latest tech including the
patent-pending Revo®-Spec Torque-Control™ slipper clutch and all-new
Alias™ high-performance 2.2" racing tires. The advanced dual-pin rear,
and ribbed front tread designs are engineered to work with our
exclusive rubber compounds for superior off-road traction and
directional control. New industry standard 2.2" mirror-chrome Tracer™
wheels open the door to a wide range of tire options, including the new
Traxxas Anaconda 2.2" street treads. Jump it. Race it. Crash it.
Bandit’s legendary durability leaves everything else behind. Bandit is
built Traxxas Tough™ to keep you off the workbench and deep in the fun
zone. Plus, it’s upgradeable with a full line of Traxxas factory parts
and accessories for custom performance and personalization.
A System of Power
Being faster is more fun! Bandit’s performance comes from a system of
components that are engineered to work together for efficient operation
and high-output performance. The Titan® 12T 550 modified motor is
designed for brutal mod-motor power with virtually maintenance-free
operation and long-lasting performance. The Titan’s integrated cooling
fan pulls cool air through the motor to keep temperatures down. Airflow
is routed through cooling passages molded into the motor plate. A
cooler running motor equates to faster speeds, longer runtime, and
extended motor life.

The
XL-5 Electronic Speed Control tames the Titan 12T with high current
handling, EZ-Set® one-button setup, and smooth, high-frequency control.
Three drive profiles, thermal shutdown protection, gold-plated
connectors, and incredibly low resistance are all included features you
might expect to only be available on an expensive replacement ESC. The
XL-5 is the first electronic speed control equipped with the
patent-pending Training Mode™ that limits full-throttle power to 50%.
This allows young or new drivers to safely develop their control skills
before unlocking full power to the Titan 12T motor. Bandit is perfect
for drivers of any age and skill level. Only Traxxas has it.
Engineered for Performance The Bandit is fully loaded with
engineered performance features such as the advanced Revo-Spec
Torque-Control slipper clutch. The patent-pending design allows precise
adjustment and delivers smooth, consistent traction control. The
durable, fiber-composite chassis is designed for exceptional rigidity,
and offers an inline battery position for a low polar moment of
inertia. That’s engineering speak that translates into nimble handling
and lightening-fast response. The low-profile “lay-down” steering servo
mounting system further enhances the Bandit’s already low CG design.
Bandit offers superior stability and cornering thanks to its centered
kingpin and live axle front suspension. Transmitting the power to the
wheels is an efficient 3-gear variable-ratio transmission, topped off
with sealed ball bearings and smooth-running telescoping driveshafts.
In addition to those advanced features, the factory-installed planetary
differential is Traxxas-Tough™ with hardened steel gears that never
need adjusting! Perfect for long-lasting, all-day fun. The Bandit is 100% Ready-To-Race® right out of the box with the TQ™
2-channel radio system, XL-5 electronic speed control and Titan 12T
motor. Just take the Bandit out of the box, charge up a battery, and
drive!
Only Traxxas could put this kind of
performance, innovation, and overall value into a Ready-To-Race®
package that delivers the satisfaction you expect from a
high-performance electric buggy. Speed, ruggedness, and stunning looks
elevate Bandit far above the ordinary. Traxxas’ forward thinking and
“no-nonsense” approach brings you the most performance for your R/C
investment. Bandit is more than just fun to drive. It's easy to own,
too, with legendary durability, low-maintenance design, and unmatched
parts support and one-on-one service from either Traxxas or a network
of thousands of hobby stores worldwide. On and off the road, at the
track or in your backyard, the new Bandit is the ultimate Extreme
Sports Buggy™ made for the driver who wants to experience max speed and
all-out buggy fun. |
