Traxxas Spartan SR VXL RC Boat with Self-Righting
The Traxxas Spartan SR delivers serious performance and adrenaline-pumping speed. Hit the throttle and watch it leap into action, reaching speeds beyond 50mph in seconds. If it flips during a turn or wave hit, its self-righting hull flips it back upright—so the fun never stops.
Built-In Self-Righting System
This isn’t just a helpful feature—it’s a game-changer. The self-righting design lets you push your Spartan SR to the edge without worrying about rollovers. Whether you're new to boating or an experienced racer, this tech gives you the freedom to go full speed with confidence.
Precision Handling and Stability
The deep-V ABS hull is engineered for both speed and agility. A revised layout for the electronics and battery tray keeps weight balanced down the centreline, greatly improving cornering, stability, and high-speed control. The result is tight, responsive handling in all conditions.
VXL-6s Power and Over 50mph Speed
Powered by the VXL-6s™ Marine system and a Velineon® 540XL brushless motor, the Spartan SR makes full use of 6S LiPo power to deliver blistering acceleration. The efficient 42mm prop gets it planing fast and maintains incredible speed across the water.
