You receive a complete ready to run RC setup with integrated battery, fast charger, and TQ 2.4 GHz radio system all included. There's no need to hunt down additional components or spend extra money on compatibility upgrades. The Extreme HD components come factory-installed, meaning the suspension arms, gearbox, and transmission are already optimised for durability before your Bandit even hits the ground.
Key Features
- Extreme Heavy Duty Suspension Components — The Bandit HD comes with factory-installed Extreme HD suspension parts that are beefed-up with extra material for ultimate strength. This means you can bash harder, jump higher, and push the limits without worrying about snapping suspension arms or bent components. Combined with HD arms made from Traxxas' toughest composite material, the Bandit sets a new standard for off-road durability and longevity.
- Fully Waterproof Electronics for All-Weather Driving — The XL-5 waterproof electronic speed control and sealed receiver allow you to drive in rain, mud, puddles, and wet conditions without hesitation. This waterproof construction means your RC buggy can handle genuine all-weather adventures, not just fair-weather bashing in dry conditions.
- 35+ mph Top Speed Performance — Powered by a Traxxas Titan 12-turn 550 brushed motor combined with the XL-5 electronic speed control, the Bandit HD achieves thrilling 35+ mph speeds that deliver genuine excitement and acceleration. This speed is perfectly matched to the vehicle's 1/10 scale chassis for safe, controllable high-speed runs.
- Battery and Charger Included in the Box — Unlike many ready to run RC cars, the Bandit HD includes a powerful 8.4-volt 3000 mAh Traxxas Power Cell rechargeable NiMH battery pack and a fast 4-amp USB-C battery charger with iD technology. You can charge virtually anywhere thanks to the USB-C connector, and the iD system automatically recognises your battery and optimises charge settings instantly—no guesswork required.
- TQ 2.4 GHz Radio System with 2-Channel Transmitter — The included TQ 2.4 GHz transmitter provides reliable, interference-free control across 2 channels. The 2.4 GHz frequency band is recognised as the global standard for modern RC vehicles, ensuring compatibility and reliability on UK roads and tracks.
- Brushless-Ready Metal Gear Magnum 272 Transmission — The robust Magnum 272 transmission with metal gears is engineered for durability and power delivery. This transmission is brushless-ready, meaning you can upgrade to a brushless motor system in future if you want even more performance without needing to replace the gearbox.
- 100% Fully Assembled and Ready-To-Race — Out of the box, the Bandit HD requires zero assembly. Everything is pre-built, pre-configured, and pre-tested. Simply unpack, charge the battery, insert four AA batteries in the transmitter, and you're ready to drive immediately. This is genuine ready-to-run RC convenience.
- Dual Bellcrank Steering with Servo Saver — The precision dual bellcrank steering geometry combined with a servo saver mechanism ensures responsive, accurate steering input whilst protecting the servo from damage during crashes or heavy impacts. This design allows for sharp cornering and smooth high-speed tracking.
- Traxxas iD Battery Technology — The included 3000 mAh 7-cell NiMH battery features Traxxas iD technology, making it compatible with the intelligent 4-amp USB-C charger. The iD system is the easiest and safest way to charge—just plug it in and the charger does the rest automatically.
Technical Performance
The Bandit HD is engineered with serious attention to performance specification and build quality. At its heart sits the Titan 12-turn 550 brushed motor—a proven powerplant that delivers consistent, reliable acceleration and smooth power delivery. This motor is paired with the XL-5 waterproof electronic speed control, which provides responsive throttle response and smooth speed regulation. The motor's 12-turn configuration is specifically tuned for the 1/10 scale buggy platform, delivering the perfect balance between top speed and torque for bashing and racing applications.
The drivetrain utilises a Magnum 272 transmission with a 2.72 internal gear ratio, resulting in a final drive ratio of 10.17. This gearing is calculated to extract maximum performance from the Titan 550 motor whilst maintaining adequate torque for acceleration and hill climbing. The transmission uses metal gears throughout, which are significantly more durable than plastic alternatives and can withstand the punishment of serious off-road driving. The planetary differential system ensures smooth power distribution to both rear wheels whilst allowing them to rotate at different speeds during cornering.
Suspension geometry is critical to handling, and the Bandit HD delivers with extreme heavy duty components throughout. The front uses long-length shocks whilst the rear features XX-long shocks, providing substantial travel for jumping and rough terrain absorption. Pre-glued Alias ribbed 2.2-inch tyres on the front and Alias step-pin 2.2-inch tyres on the rear provide excellent grip across various surfaces. The 2.2-inch black and chrome multi-spoke wheels are lightweight yet strong enough to handle the power and speed on offer.
The chassis is constructed from moulded composite nylon, which offers an excellent strength-to-weight ratio. The moulded tub design provides structural rigidity whilst keeping overall weight to just 47.9 ounces (1.36 kg). With a wheelbase of 11.25 inches and front and rear tracks of 9.84 inches each, the Bandit HD benefits from a compact, stability-focused platform. The overall length is 16.7 inches with a height of 7.01 inches, making it perfectly proportioned for 1/10 scale off-road bashing.
The waterproof credentials extend beyond the ESC and receiver to the high-torque waterproof 2056 servo, which handles steering inputs without compromise even in wet conditions. The 6519 3-channel micro receiver is compact and sealed, ensuring reliable performance in all-weather conditions. Every electrical component has been selected for reliability and durability, making the Bandit HD a true all-weather RC buggy that won't let you down.
