Traxxas XRT ULTIMATE RC Monster Truck - 78097-4

The Traxxas XRT Ultimate (TRX78097-4) is a full-scale, 8S brushless-powered 4WD RC monster truck built for extreme bashing at the highest level of performance Traxxas offers. Designed around the proven XRT platform, the Ultimate version pushes the specification further with premium components fitted from the factory, making it one of the most capable ready-to-run radio control trucks in the Traxxas lineup. Whether you're running on dirt, gravel, grass, or rough outdoor terrain, the XRT Ultimate is engineered to handle serious abuse without flinching. This is not an entry-level machine — it's aimed at experienced RC drivers who want factory-built, competition-grade performance straight out of the box.
