INSTALLING THE BATTERY PACK
1. Push the battery hold-down toward the center of the truck using
the two release tabs and lift the hold-down up and toward you.
2. Insert a fully charged battery into the battery compartment with the
High Current Connector positioned toward the rear of the model.
3. Lower the battery hold-down and pull it toward the outside of the
truck to snap it closed.
Note: The battery compartment includes foam spacers to accommodate
the Traxxas 5000mAh 4s battery packs (part #2888X). When using other
LiPo batteries, additional battery pack spacers may be required for proper
fitment (part #8919, sold separately).
RADIO SYSTEM CONTROLS
RADIO SYSTEM RULES
• Always turn your TQi transmitter on first and off last. This procedure
will help to prevent your model from receiving stray signals from
another transmitter, or other source, and running out of control. Your
model has electronic failsafes to prevent this type of malfunction, but
the first, best defense against a runaway model is to always turn the
transmitter on first, and off last.
Battery iD
Traxxas recommended
battery packs are equipped
with Traxxas Battery iD. This
exclusive feature allows
Traxxas battery chargers (sold
separately) to automatically
recognize connected battery
packs and optimize the
charge settings for the
battery. This eliminates
the need to worry over
charger settings and menus
for the easiest and safest
charging solution possible.
Visit Traxxas.com to learn
more about this feature and
available Traxxas iD chargers
and batteries.
The Traxxas
High-Current Connector
Your model is equipped
with the Traxxas High-
Current Connector. Standard
connectors restrict current
flow and are not capable of
delivering the power needed
to maximize the output of
the VXL-4s. The Traxxas
connector’s gold-plated
terminals, with large contact
surfaces, ensure positive
current flow with the least
amount of resistance. Secure,
long-lasting, and easy to
grip, the Traxxas connector
is engineered to extract all
the power your battery has
to give.
