We have identified an issue with the VXL-6s Electronic Speed Control that could lead to fire. In cooperation with the US Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), we are voluntarily recalling the 3365 VXL-6s Electronic Speed Control (ESC) sold separately or with the X-Maxx 77076-4 to install new firmware and a fusible link in line with the battery connection for the VXL-6S ESC. The firmware improves the performance of the X-Maxx, and the fusible link does not alter the intended performance and speed of the X-Maxx in any way. Please enter the ESC serial number in the field below to see if your model is affected. If it is affected, chose one of the options below .

For Immediate Release:

Your safety is our top priority. We learned of a potential safety issue with the electronic speed control in the Traxxas X-Maxx Monster Trucks purchased by customers between November 2015 and February 2016.

If you installed the bridge connector yourself or if your ESC already has a large red label on the bridge connector, you may still need to update the firmware on your ESC.

Hazard Description:

Traxxas has received some reports that when the electronics are pushed to the point of failure in some extremely rare instances, either by vehicle modification or electronics failures, fire can result.



Traxxas is voluntarily recalling the 3365 VXL-6s Electronic Speed Control (ESC) in the 77076-4 X-Maxx to install new firmware and add a fusible link placed inline in the battery connection for the VXL-6s ESC.
