CB5707 Traxxas Spartan High Performance Race Boat RTR w/2.4Ghz Radio (Traxxas Link Wireless Module Compatible)

Modern Reinforced Hull

The foundation of Spartan뭩 extreme performance is its all-new hull. The clean, modern hull design is built up in layers for maximum rigidity where it matters most, the transom and ride pad. Lightweight yet incredibly strong, Spartan's ABS hull is designed to withstand the stress of high-voltage brushless horsepower, without the weight penalty of a fiberglass hull. The transom bulkhead also incorporates bosses for the trim tabs, turn fins, rudder support, and drive strut, eliminating the need for plywood doublers and additional hardware inside the hull. In the Spartan뭩 bow, molded foam is form-fitted to the interior, adding security as it further stiffens the hull. Outside the hull, Spartan impresses with its durable, vivid, factory-applied graphics뾞 Traxxas trademark.

Easy-Access Hatch
Spartan뭩 hatch is secured by a single body clip and removes in seconds for fast and easy access to the hull interior. No sealing tape is required, and a specially designed drip rail in the hull channels away any water that washes over the hatch.

Body-Clip Lanyard
You뭠l never drop a body clip into the pond with Spartan! A flexible rubber lanyard keeps the body clip secured to the hatch so it뭩 always at the ready. It뭩 just one of the many small details that makes a day at the pond with Spartan fun and easy.

Streamlined Water Outlet
Nothing was overlooked in the effort to optimize every detail of the Spartan뾢ven the water outlet is unique! Instead of an unsightly piece of tubing, Spartan뭩 water outlet is streamlined and integrated into the hull, maintaining its sleek look.

Factory-Applied Graphics
Spartan뭩 bold graphics make it the most stunning boat on the pond, with a custom look even pro painters can뭪 match. No painting or decaling is required; all the graphics are pre-applied to get Spartan out of the box and into the water with speed and style.

Integrated Battery Trays
Spartan뭩 hull is further strengthened by its integrated battery trays, which securely hold a variety of battery configurations뾣rom the included 7-cell Power Cell NiMH packs to 3S LiPos. The roomy trays allow the hull to be trimmed by positioning the packs fore and aft, and convenient hook and loop straps secure the batteries.

Removable Power Module
A signature feature of the Spartan is its unique Power Module. The VXL-6s speed control, waterproof receiver box, and powerful 2056 high-torque servo are all bolted securely to the tray. Detach the steering linkage and flex cable, then loosen just two screws to release the Spartan뭩 electronics. All of the electronic components, including the motor and stuffing tube, lift out as a unit. No other boat makes it so easy to access the hull interior and electronics, and the molded parts fit into the hull precisely for perfect alignment without crude brackets or wooden stringers. The Power Module also contributes to the Spartan뭩 stability by holding the electronic components low in the hull. Spartan뭩 low center of gravity, combined with its wave-cutting deep-V hull, gives it high stability without compromising high performance.

Quick Release Flex Cable
Some boats rely on set-screws to pinch the flex shaft in place. Setscrews are prone to loosening and can damage the flex shaft뾲hat뭩 not the Traxxas way. Spartan features a clamping collet that holds the cable tightly and centers it perfectly with the motor뭩 output shaft for smooth, efficient operation. When it뭩 time for maintenance, the collet releases quickly with a twist of the included precision wrenches. Once loosened, the prop and flex cable simply slide out. Reinstallation is just as fast, making it easy to keep your Spartan running in absolute peak form.

High-Performance Prop
Spartan뭩 surface-piercing prop is optimized to get the hull on plane quickly without cavitation and to run at maximum speed with the least current draw. Traxxas engineers spent many hours testing prop configurations to find the perfect balance of performance, efficiency, and durability. Molded composite construction makes the prop light and tough, and no balancing or sharpening is required.

High-Strength Aluminum Hardware
Extreme brushless horsepower demands rigid drive hardware and a flex-free transom for sharp and predictable handling. The rudder, rudder support and drive strut are extruded and machined from rugged 6000-series aluminum alloy for maximum strength, and then anodized vivid blue for that unmistakable Traxxas look. When you lean the Spartan over into a water-carving turn, you can count on the rudder to dig in and hold your line. The rudder incorporates a pickup for the water-cooling system, and uses bronze bushings for smooth steering action. The drive strut also uses bronze bushings for corrosion-free performance, and features an oiling hole for easy maintenance.

Stainless-Steel Trim Tabs & Turn Fins
Spartan뭩 dual trim tabs and turn fins are critical to its high-speed performance. The parts are precision die-cut and bent from stainless steel to resist corrosion as they provide aggressive cornering 멳ite?and the proper hull attitude for water-boiling speed.

Stainlees Steel Hex Hardware
Spartan uses corrosion-resistant stainless-steel and nickel-plated hardware throughout for good looks, easy maintenance, and lasting performance. Convenient hex heads make Spartan a pleasure to maintain.

Extreme Velineon brushless horsepower delivers the muscle you want with the reliability you expect from Traxxas. 30+mph out of the box on the included 7-cell battery packs is just the start. The VXL-6s Marine electronic speed control is built for true 6S LiPo power.* On-board low voltage detection helps you maintain your batteries. The extra voltage and current maximizes the potential of the Velineon 540XL motor for extreme 50+mph speed. The rebuildable, sensorless Velineon 540XL motor is designed for high-rpm performance and reliability with ultra high-temperature sintered Neodymium magnets, a precision-balanced rotor, and efficient, high-speed ball bearings. Cooling water is routed through the innovative speed control case and then into a unique sealed motor jacket that allows cooling water to flow directly against the motor for maximum possible heat transfer. The Spartan keeps its cool, run after run, for trouble-free all-day fun.
