Traxxas Stability Management (TSM) works behind the scenes to harness Rustler’s extreme 3s brushless horsepower. TSM maximizes acceleration and braking by keeping Rustler arrow straight without pulling power or dulling throttle response, even on low-traction surfaces. TSM can also be switched off directly from the TQi Sport transmitter.
Rustler puts the power to the ground thanks to the outstanding grip of its new high-performance Sledgehammer ST tires. The rear tires’ open-block tread design clears away mud and debris for unrivaled traction on loose surfaces. Rustler’s front tires feature deep concentric rings and wide tread blocks that combine all the off-road benefits of a ribbed tire with the grip of a street tire. Tough 2.8” RXT 6-spoke black wheels give Rustler a powerful stance.
A high-performance chassis positions Rustler’s weight down low for agile handing and sharp reflexes. A new carbon-look chassis molded in dark gray composite combines lightweight strength with a modern high-tech appearance. An integrated receiver box saves weight and adds structural rigidity while a new battery strap blends rigid strength with clip-free convenience.

Rustler’s new Velineon® 3s power system is brushless powerhouse that transforms 11.1 volts of LiPo power into brutal acceleration and 60+ mph speed with no gearing changes required. The fan-cooled VX3 speed control is feature-packed and simple to use with Traxxas EZ-Set® one-button programming. The powerful V3200 motor is a model of efficiency with internal fan cooling for long run times.
Rustler’s ultra-plush ride comes courtesy of new composite GTR shocks on all four corners. GTR shocks hold over 70% more oil than standard Ultra Shocks for consistent damping performance. X-ring seals keep oil in and dirt out for smooth suspension compression and rebound. Spring preload and ride height changes are as simple as turning the threaded collar and the spring retainers are captured with a screw so they can't pop off.
Rustler 2WD Brushless needs a fast and powerful steering servo to match its quick reflexes and agile handling. A new upgraded servo delivers 15% more torque with the superior durability of an all-metal gear train. Rustler also receives an improved bellcrank steering assembly with a cam-operated servo saver to enhance steering precision and protect the servo from impacts.
Rustler’s new clipless body features more aggressive styling and a molded rear wing borrowed from Rustler 4X4. Heavy-duty latches grip the body tightly for rough-and-tumble action, but release in just seconds for fast battery swaps. This convenient hidden latching system replaces traditional body clips with reinforced panels to maintain body integrity and resist pull-through damage.
A wheelie bar is an absolute necessity for a vehicle with the out-of-the-box 60+ mph speed and wheel-standing torque of Rustler 2WD Brushless. The wheelie bar is positioned perfectly to allow massive wheelies while keeping Rustler under your control. An integrated carry handle allows quick and easy transport to your next adventure.
Rustler’s Extreme HD driveshafts are beefed up in critical areas to handle the outrageous power of the Velineon 3s brushless power system. The large-diameter half shafts offer excellent articulation and suspension travel while putting massive torque to the ground.
Designed for 3-cell LiPo batteries, the V3200 motor is optimized for extreme power and efficiency with a large 5 mm output shaft. Ultra-high temperature sintered Neodymium magnets provide massive torque and linear power. The unique low-maintenance design features high-speed ball bearings and an integrated cooling fan for consistent power, run after run.
The fully waterproof VX3 ESC transforms 11.1 volts of LiPo power into 60+ mph performance with the simplicity of Traxxas’ EZ-Set one-button programming. A large aluminum heat sink with cooling fan keeps temperatures down for longer run times. The VX3 comes loaded with high-tech features like race-inspired High-Resolution Linear Braking and real-time telemetry via Traxxas Link (requires TQi transmitter with installed wireless module).
The TQi Sport receiver is compatible with all TQi and TQi Sport transmitters. A built-in failsafe returns the throttle to neutral and holds the steering in the last known position in the event of a signal loss.
Your RC experience should be filled with fun and adventure, not limited by the electronics. Rustler’s new receiver box is molded into the chassis for increased strength. A patented O-ring seal keeps water out, giving you the freedom to live out your wildest adventures, regardless of the weather.
Rustler holds batteries securely in place with the convenience of a rugged clipless battery strap. Swing the heavy-duty strap up and out of the way to swap batteries. Once loaded, just snap the tab into the latch and your battery stays secure until you release it.
