Key Features
- Genuine Traxxas Receiver Box — This is the official Traxxas replacement receiver box, ensuring perfect fitment and compatibility with your Traxxas RC model. Using genuine parts eliminates guesswork and guarantees your electronics will be securely housed and properly protected.
- Integrated ESC Mount — The box features a dedicated mounting point for your electronic speed controller, keeping it organised and secured within the chassis. This prevents the ESC from moving around during aggressive driving and protects it from impact damage.
- Rubber Access Plug Included — A replacement rubber plug is supplied, allowing you to easily access your receiver connections and antenna without disassembling the entire receiver box. This is invaluable for troubleshooting radio issues, reprogramming your transmitter, or checking receiver battery levels during maintenance.
- Two Pieces of Adhesive Foam Tape Supplied — The pack includes two separate pieces of high-quality adhesive foam tape, perfect for securing components inside the receiver box and dampening vibration that could affect electronics performance. Foam tape also isolates your receiver from chassis vibration, improving signal reliability and radio responsiveness.
- Shock and Vibration Dampening — The foam tape works in conjunction with the box design to isolate your receiver and ESC from the vibrations and impacts of aggressive RC driving. This protection extends the lifespan of your sensitive electronics and maintains consistent radio performance throughout long driving sessions.
- Easy Installation — The Traxxas receiver box mounts directly into your chassis using proven Traxxas engineering. With the rubber plug and foam tape included, you have everything needed to properly install and secure your receiver and ESC in one complete package.
Technical Performance
The Traxxas Box receiver/ESC mount represents the precision engineering that defines Traxxas RC vehicles. Built from durable materials designed to withstand the demanding environment inside an RC car chassis, this receiver box provides reliable protection for your receiver and electronic speed controller during high-speed driving, aggressive bashing, and competitive racing. The combination of the rigid box structure, rubber access plug, and adhesive foam tape creates a complete shock absorption and isolation system that protects delicate electronics from impact and vibration damage. The foam tape supplied is specifically formulated to provide secure adhesion while remaining removable, allowing you to adjust your electronics mounting if needed. Whether you're running a brushless RC motor setup on 3S, 4S or higher voltage LiPo batteries, or operating a nitro-powered vehicle, this receiver box provides the same level of protection for your receiver and ESC. The rubber plug maintains a weather-resistant seal when your vehicle isn't in use, helping to keep moisture and dust away from your electronics. Traxxas engineers designed this box to fit seamlessly within their chassis designs, ensuring no wasted space and maximum usable room for your receiver antenna and ESC wiring. The mounting system is proven through millions of RC cars in use worldwide and remains the standard for receiver/ESC protection in RC hobby vehicles across the UK and beyond.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Is this Traxxas receiver box compatible with my specific Traxxas RC model? — The Traxxas Box TRX7524 is a genuine Traxxas replacement part designed to fit Traxxas vehicles. However, compatibility varies by model and chassis design. We recommend checking your specific vehicle's parts list or contacting our team at RC Model Shop to confirm fitment before purchasing. Our experienced staff can help you identify the correct receiver box for your particular Traxxas RC car.
- What's the purpose of the rubber access plug? — The rubber plug allows you to access your receiver's antenna connection, receiver battery connector, and bind button without removing the entire receiver box from the chassis. This is essential for programming your transmitter to the receiver, checking receiver battery status, or troubleshooting radio connectivity issues during maintenance or before a driving session.
- Can I use the foam tape on other RC components? — Yes, the adhesive foam tape supplied can be used for securing various components within your RC car's chassis. Many RC enthusiasts use foam tape to mount batteries, secure wiring harnesses, dampen motor vibration, or isolate other sensitive electronics. The tape is removable and won't leave permanent residue when carefully removed.
- How do I properly install this receiver box in my Traxxas vehicle? — The receiver box mounts directly into your Traxxas chassis using the factory mounting points designed specifically for this component. Once mounted, secure your receiver inside the box, apply the foam tape to dampen vibrations and secure wiring, insert the rubber access plug, and reconnect your receiver to your ESC. Always ensure your antenna is properly positioned for optimal radio signal reception.
- Is this suitable for both indoor and outdoor RC driving? — Yes, this receiver box is designed to protect your electronics in both controlled indoor track environments and rough outdoor terrain. The rubber plug provides a degree of weather resistance, though you should avoid deep water submersion. The foam tape helps isolate electronics from the vibrations and impacts of outdoor bashing.
- Will this work with waterproof electronics? — While the receiver box and foam tape don't make your electronics fully waterproof, they do protect against splashes and light rain when used responsibly. If you plan to operate your RC car in wet conditions, ensure your receiver and ESC are rated as waterproof before use.
