Traxxas VXL-8S Waterproof Electronic Speed Control

This is a replacement VXL-8s waterproof electronic speed control made by Traxxas.

Key Features

• Internal temperature sensor with integrated cooling fan and two-stage thermal shutdown protection protect the VXL-8s from overheating
• Bright multi-color LED status lights provide clear feedback
• Built-in two-stage low voltage detection for Lithium Polymer (LiPo) batteries use provides a clear signal to the driver that the batteries are nearing their minimum voltage threshold
• Wide range of LiPo battery options from 3s packs up to full-power 4s LiPo packs
• The patented Training Mode is an exclusive Traxxas feature that reduces the overall power output of the VXL-8s by 50%, making it easier for inexperienced drivers to control their model. When you’re ready, simply change profiles to unleash full-throttle action
• The EZ-Set push-button setup operates and programs just like other Traxxas speed controls—eliminating the need to learn a new set of procedures
• The VXL-8s is programmable with three drive profiles:
  • Sport Mode – Fwd / Brake / Rev
  • Race Mode – Fwd / Brake
  • Training Mode – 50% Fwd / Brake / 50% Rev
• Patented Traxxas High-Current Connectors eliminates a common bottleneck and maintain pure, unrestricted power flow from the batteries to the brushless power system
• Locked Rotor Protection prevents system damage by cutting power if the vehicle is stuck or the motor is bound
• Battery Over-Voltage Protection causes the ESC to go into failsafe mode if the maximum input voltage is exceeded
• Water resistant case design uses rubber seals and O-rings to protect against damage caused by water and moisture
• Gold plated 6.5 mm bullet connectors on ultra-efficient Maxx Cable flow full power to the motor without performance strangling resistance
