About This Monster Truck

The Traxxas Stampede is one of the most iconic names in RC — a 1/10 scale 2WD monster truck that's been a go-to first truck for beginners and a proven basher for experienced drivers for decades. Factory-installed Extreme Heavy-Duty suspension components and clipless body mounting come standard, along with a 30+ mph top speed and four inches of ground clearance right out of the box.

You Also Need

⚠️ 4 AA alkaline batteries required for transmitter — not included. Traxxas AA batteries (2914) available separately.

⚠️ USB-C power source required to charge the included battery — a standard USB port may not provide enough wattage. Traxxas 45-watt AC adapter (2912) and power cable (2916) recommended, sold separately.
