Our rover
Meet the Traxxas Rustler VXL Brushless (following picture), an off-road speed demon at more than 70 mph with a 3S battery. If you're familiar with this car, you'll recognize that it is certainly not (completely) stock. Bigger, wider tires have been fitted with deeper treads for better traction and more resistance to rolling. Additionally, these tires are very soft (adding to the suspension of the vehicle) to reduce vibration on the chassis.
Finally, a wheelie bar has been added to keep it from flipping during acceleration and bumps.
You may also notice that we added a bumper to the front to protect the suspension against forward collisions. Let's get started.
