TRX-74276-4-GRN Traxxas Ford Fiesta ST Rally Car - VXL Brushless AWD RTR, 1/10 Scale, 3S, Green

About This Vehicle

The Traxxas Ford® Fiesta® ST Rally VXL is a 1/10 scale AWD brushless rally car that comes fully assembled and Ready-To-Race® out of the box. It's powered by the legendary Velineon® brushless system — 3500 Kv motor, VXL-3s™ ESC, and 3S LiPo capability — delivering 60+ mph with precise, responsive throttle control. The officially licensed Ford® Fiesta® ST body uses Traxxas' clipless mounting system: no posts, no clips, drop it on and snap it into place. All electronics are fully waterproof.

The Extreme Heavy-Duty Upgrade Kit comes factory installed: reinforced caster blocks, axle carriers, steering blocks, EHD driveshafts with 6 mm axles, and steel wheel hexes. The TQi™ radio system includes Traxxas Stability Management® (TSM), which improves traction and composure on low-grip surfaces without dulling the throttle.

Battery and charger sold separately — see "You Also Need" below.

What's Included

• Fiesta ST Rally with VXL-3s ESC and 3500 Kv brushless motor
• TQi™ 2.4 GHz 2-channel radio system with TSM
• Traxxas 6533 5-channel receiver

You Also Need

Battery: Accepts 6–7 cell NiMH flat packs or 2S–3S LiPo (battery compartment: 165 × 50 × 23/26 mm). The Traxxas High-Current Connector is pre-installed. Running 3S LiPo unlocks the full speed potential of the Velineon system.

Charger: The Traxxas EZ-Peak® Plus (PN 2970) handles NiMH and LiPo up to 3S — the practical everyday choice. For Bluetooth monitoring via the Traxxas app, the EZ-Peak® Live (PN 2971) is the upgrade option.

Want it all in one box? The Traxxas 2970-3S Completer Pack includes a 3S LiPo battery and EZ-Peak® Plus charger together — the easiest way to get on the track same day with the right power for this vehicle.

Transmitter batteries: 4× AA alkaline batteries for the TQi transmitter (PN 2914).

Size & Scale

At 1/10 scale, the Fiesta ST Rally VXL is about the size of a watermelon — 21 inches long, 11 inches wide. Compact enough for a driveway or parking lot, fast enough that you'll want plenty of open space.

Key Features

Velineon® VXL-3s Brushless Power System

The Velineon 3500 Kv motor pairs with the waterproof VXL-3s ESC for 60+ mph performance on 3S LiPo. The ESC supports three drive profiles: Sport Mode (forward/brake/reverse), Race Mode (forward/brake only), and patented Training Mode™ (50% throttle/reverse) for newer drivers. Two-stage low-voltage detection protects LiPo packs from over-discharge. The system runs on both NiMH (6–9 cells) and LiPo (2S–3S), so you can start on whatever battery you have and step up to 3S when you're ready.

Traxxas Stability Management (TSM)

TSM is built into the TQi™ radio system and works automatically to improve straight-line acceleration and braking on low-traction surfaces — pavement, gravel, wet ground. It maintains steering composure during throttle-on power slides and never reduces top speed or throttle response. Adjustable from fully off to 100% assistance from the transmitter dial.

Extreme Heavy-Duty Upgrade Kit (Factory Installed)

Reinforced caster blocks, axle carriers, and steering blocks; EHD driveshafts with oversized 6 mm axles and steel wheel hexes — all factory-fitted. Combined with the modular chassis that comes apart in under a minute with a power screwdriver, this is a vehicle built to be run hard and maintained easily.

TQi™ 2.4 GHz Radio System

The TQi transmitter stores settings for up to 30 Traxxas Link-enabled models and includes a programmable multi-function knob. The 5-channel receiver (6533) features built-in fail-safe: if signal is lost, throttle returns to neutral and last-commanded steering is held automatically. Add the Traxxas Link Wireless Module (sold separately) for real-time telemetry to your phone via the free Traxxas Link™ app.

Clipless Body System

The Ford® Fiesta® ST body snaps onto the chassis without clips or posts. Side tabs release it in seconds for battery access. Integrated nerf bars add side protection; a reinforced dual-profile rear wing provides high-speed downforce and rollover durability.

Waterproof Electronics Throughout

VXL-3s ESC, 2075 servo, and receiver box are all fully waterproof. The receiver routes through a patented watertight seal for all-weather operation.

Who It's For

Skill Level 2 — the VXL is best suited to drivers who have some RC experience and are ready to step up to serious brushless performance. 60+ mph on a 1/10 platform requires open space and attentive control. TSM makes it more forgiving than a raw brushless setup, but this isn't a first-RC-car purchase. It's an excellent choice for an experienced driver wanting a fast, capable, low-maintenance rally platform, or as a step-up vehicle for someone who's outgrown entry-level brushless.

Frequently Asked Questions

View FAQs

Does this come with a battery and charger?

No — battery and charger are sold separately. The Traxxas EZ-Peak® Plus (2970) handles up to 3S LiPo and is the practical everyday choice. For an all-in-one solution, the Traxxas 2970-3S Completer Pack includes a 3S LiPo battery and charger together.

How fast does it go?

Traxxas rates the Fiesta ST Rally VXL at 60+ mph on 3S LiPo. Real-world speed will vary with surface, battery state, and gearing. The included optional speed gear can be used to tune top speed vs. acceleration.

What battery does it use?

Accepts 6–9 cell NiMH flat packs or 2S–3S LiPo (compartment: 165 × 50 × 23/26 mm). The Traxxas High-Current Connector is pre-installed. Running 3S LiPo delivers the full performance of the Velineon system.

Is this 4-wheel drive?

Yes — full-time shaft-driven AWD with front and rear oil-filled differentials and a slipper clutch for equal front-to-rear power distribution.

What is Traxxas Stability Management (TSM)?

TSM is built into the TQi™ radio and automatically improves traction and control on low-grip surfaces. It keeps the car composed during hard acceleration and braking without reducing throttle response. You can adjust it from fully off to full assistance from the transmitter dial.
