Powerpack
The Velineon 3500 collectorless electric motor is specifically designed for installation on 1/10 scale Bandit machines, providing a balance of unbeatable power and ease of operation and maintenance. The engine works well with the latest VLS-3s speed regulator, which provides soft and clear speed control without the need for additional control sensors. And because there is no collector and switch, friction and wear are minimized, allowing the Velineon motor to be equally fast year after year.
Velineon VXL-3s waterproof speed regulator
Velineon's VXL-3s backward speed regulator makes it easy to operate a collectorless system, allowing you to enjoy it without having to worry about difficulties. Quickly switch between three modes of operation, sports, racing, and training. Training mode limits power by 50%, allowing novice drivers to learn and professionals to hone their driving skills before letting the Velineon system work at its fullest. The potential of the Bandit VXL car can be fully unlocked by the driver of any age and level of training. High-frequency transistors and a special electrical circuit configuration ensure smooth and precise control of the power plant. performance can be tailored for drivers of any age and experience. The VXL-3s is suitable for simple collector engines as well as collectorless and hall sensor collectorless engines. The VXL-3s automatically detects the connected motor and adjusts to it. And the fuse box and two-level overheating protection ensure unlimited use of the motor.
Gold plated connectors
The race for maximum speed started with a battery connector. Today's batteries can accumulate more and more energy, and traditional connectors are becoming a weakness, unable to transmit all the energy from the batteries to the engine. The new, patented Traxxas connector provides unlimited power flow.

For precise control at extremely high speed, the Bandit is equipped with a high-speed, waterproof Traxxas 2075 servo machine, which provides a lightning-fast response to driver commands.
Designed for speed
The rugged, composite chassis frame provides increased rigidity and allows batteries to be installed in a row to reduce inertia. This engineering idea, which has been put into practice, results in dexterity and lightning-fast response. A low-profile servo machine deepened in the chassis lowers the already lowered center of gravity of the chassis. The bandit is extremely stable and swiveling. The engine power is transferred to the wheels by means of a 3-speed transmission Magnum 272 with a variable gear ratio, complemented by sealed bearings and PTO shafts. In addition, the Bandit is equipped with a Traxxas-Tough planetary differential with reinforced steel gears, which will never need to be adjusted. Ideal for continuous, year-round use.
