FTX TRACER 1/16 4WD BRUSHLESS MONSTER TRUCK RTR
There is no doubt that the Tracer has been a huge hit with enthusiasts new to R/C cars... but there is always that little bit more excitement to be gained, and we have upped the specification on the monster truck to bring you a brushless version for some real small-scale thrills and spills!
With a 3800kv brushless motor hooked up to a 7.4v 1000mAh 2S lipo battery the Tracer brushless really puts to use its rear mounted wheelie bar. Metal rear dogbones are included for extra durability along with new rear upper suspension links for added reliability under power.
A new 100m range radio is provided to help control those longer speed runs and as with the brushed version, the Tracer brushless edition features coil sprung shock absorbers with multiple mounting points, double wishbone suspension and front universal driveshafts for smooth suspension movement while steering through the rough stuff. Shaft driven 4WD and with geared differentials front and rear provide traction in all conditions.
Plug in front bumper LED lights are included and there is a wide selection of aftermarket options to further up spec your truck to new levels!

Amazing little car. Powerful enough for adults and the speed is adjustable enough for young children to enjoy as well. The team at Wheelspin are very helpful and not pushy with sales, which is a bonus.
Brilliant

Your websites saying this car is brushless? But that battery is brushed ?
Asked by Rob Ward on 9th December 2022
Yes this car is Brushless, the battery you would need is # FTX9791 but all of the brushed batteries would work with this car
Answered by: Si @ Wheelspin Models

Hi, I recently purchased a FTX Tracer Brushless 1/16th, is it possible to run this with a NIMH battery? And if so which one would be suitable please?
Asked by Andy on 2nd July 2023
These will use a li-ion battery, this will work for you FTX9736 but you would then need to check you have the correct charger for this battery too.
