Key Features

- Simple Installation — These are plug-and-play adapters that require no special tools or technical knowledge to install, making them suitable for all experience levels from complete beginners to advanced RC modellers.
- Cost-Effective Solution — Rather than investing in a completely new ESC system, these adapters allow you to repurpose your existing speed controls across multiple vehicles, providing excellent value for money and reducing your overall RC hobby expenses.
- Compact and Lightweight — The spacers are precision-engineered to add minimal weight whilst providing the exact mounting dimensions needed for proper ESC alignment and fitment.
Technical Performance
The Traxxas ESC Adapters Inner / Outer represent a practical engineering solution to a genuine compatibility problem in the RC vehicle market. When Traxxas introduced their newer VXL-3s speed control system, existing vehicles with the older BL-2s mounting points couldn't accept the new electronics without physical modification. These adapters bridge that gap through precision-manufactured spacers that adjust the mounting height and orientation of the ESC to match different vehicle platforms. The kit's composition of 6 inner and 3 outer spacers provides flexibility for different installation scenarios, ensuring that whether you're fitting a speed control to a stadium truck, monster truck, buggy, or any other Traxxas model in your collection, you'll have the correct combination of adapters to achieve perfect fitment. The materials used in these adapters are chosen for durability and dimensional accuracy, ensuring that they maintain their precision throughout extended use. This is particularly important because improper ESC mounting can lead to poor electrical contact, vibration-induced damage, and potential performance issues. With genuine Traxxas adapters, you can be confident that your expensive brushless and brushed speed control systems will be mounted securely and reliably. The engineering behind these simple-looking spacers demonstrates Traxxas's understanding of the real-world needs of RC modellers who invest in quality equipment and want to maximise their use across multiple vehicles.
