Overview
The Traxxas Wheel Hubs, hex (disc brake rotors) TRX8569 are essential replacement parts for your Traxxas UDR Unlimited Desert Racer Pro-Scale 4WD RC short course truck. These premium wheel hubs feature integrated disc brake rotors and are designed to work seamlessly with the UDR's advanced braking system, ensuring reliable stopping power and precise wheel control during high-speed desert racing and aggressive off-road driving. Whether you're a serious RC competitor, an experienced weekend basher, or an RC enthusiast looking to maintain your UDR in peak condition, these genuine Traxxas hubs represent the quality and engineering you can expect from the world's leading RC manufacturer.
As a dedicated UK RC retailer, we recognise that serious RC racers and bashers demand components that can withstand the rigours of competitive racing and extreme terrain. The Traxxas UDR platform has established itself as the gold standard for high-performance 1/10 scale short course trucks, and maintaining it with genuine Traxxas parts ensures you preserve the vehicle's handling characteristics, reliability and resale value. These wheel hubs are not generic aftermarket components—they are precision-engineered parts that integrate directly with the UDR's proprietary brake system and suspension geometry.
This pack of four wheel hubs gives you a complete set for all four wheels, or provides backup spares if you're running multiple vehicles or competing in back-to-back events. The hex design ensures secure mounting to your vehicle's driveshafts, whilst the integrated disc brake rotors provide the stopping force necessary for controlled cornering and emergency braking in competitive racing scenarios across the UK and beyond.

Technical Performance
The Traxxas TRX8569 wheel hubs represent the engineering philosophy that has made the UDR the dominant force in 1/10 scale short course truck racing. These hubs are precision-machined to tolerances that ensure zero run-out at the wheel, maintaining balanced braking force and eliminating vibration that could affect handling or tyre wear. The integrated brake rotor design is more efficient than traditional aftermarket solutions, working in concert with the UDR's hydraulic braking system to deliver progressive, modulated stopping power that gives drivers the confidence to push into corners at the absolute limit. The hex connection point is engineered to handle the torque loads generated by the UDR's powerful brushless motor and transmission without slipping or stripping, even during aggressive acceleration runs or emergency braking events. As OEM Traxxas components, these hubs maintain the vehicle's factory performance specifications and are recognised by the RC racing community as the benchmark standard for reliability and consistency. Whether you're running factory stock classes, unlimited racing, or just pushing your UDR to its limits on UK trails and desert courses, these hubs deliver the stopping precision and durability that separate winners from the rest of the field.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Are these wheel hubs compatible with my Traxxas UDR? — Yes, the TRX8569 hubs are designed specifically for the Traxxas UDR Unlimited Desert Racer Pro-Scale 4WD RTR Short Course Truck. They are confirmed compatible with both the Fox Racing and Rigid Industries variants of the UDR, and will fit without modification.
- What makes these wheel hubs different from aftermarket alternatives? — These are genuine OEM Traxxas components engineered to integrate perfectly with the UDR's hydraulic braking system and suspension geometry. The integrated brake rotor design is proprietary to Traxxas and delivers superior modulation and consistency compared to generic aftermarket hubs. Genuine parts also maintain your vehicle's performance warranty and resale value.
- How many wheel hubs do I need? — This pack contains four hubs, which provides a complete set for all four wheels of your UDR. If you're running multiple vehicles or competing regularly, you may wish to keep spare hubs on hand for field repairs.
- Will these hubs work with the standard UDR brake system? — Yes, these hubs are designed specifically for the UDR's integrated hydraulic braking system and will deliver optimal performance with the factory brake setup. The disc rotor design works in concert with the system to provide progressive, modulated stopping power.
- Are these hubs suitable for beginners? — Whilst these hubs are used on all UDR models from stock configuration upwards, they are replacement parts rather than a complete truck. If you're new to RC cars, you may want to start with a ready-to-run UDR package rather than purchasing components individually. However, if your UDR needs replacement hubs, these OEM parts are the correct choice.
- How long do these wheel hubs typically last? — Traxxas OEM components are engineered for durability and consistency across many racing seasons. Lifespan depends on usage intensity, terrain and maintenance, but genuine parts maintain their performance characteristics longer than budget alternatives. Regular inspection and cleaning will extend component life.
