Video Overview

 

Spektrum<sup>™</sup> Firma<sup>®</sup> 160 Amp Brushless Smart ESC
Spektrum Firma® 160 Amp Brushless Smart ESC

The ESC is waterproof, completely programmable, and comes pre-wired with a high-current IC5 connector. The ESC will work with most sensorless brushless motors and is Li-Po and Ni-MH compatible. The Smart technology provides information like battery voltage, RPM, RX pack Voltage, and Speed directly from the ESC when used with the Spektrum Dashboard app.

 

50+ MPH Spektrum Firma 4-Pole 780Kv Brushless Motor
50+ MPH Spektrum Firma 4-Pole 780Kv Brushless Motor

The brushless ESC and motor provide wicked power with an 8s LiPo battery (not included) that will blaze speeds of 50+ MPH.

 

Spektrum S906 1/5th scale metal gear servo
Spektrum S906 1/5th scale metal gear servo

New 30-kg HV rated Hi Torque Metal Gear Servo.

 

New Chassis Braces
New Chassis Braces

In addition to the chassis stiffening plate, we have also added an additional electric specific rear chassis brace that goes all the way up to the center diff mount to increase the rigidity of the chassis.

 

Pinned Center Outdrive Cups
Pinned Center Outdrive Cups

New Center Outdrive cups now have a retaining pin through the pinion gear to keep the out drive cup from coming off.

 

New Gearboxes
New Gearboxes

The new gearboxes improve drivetrain strength and stability.

 

Updated Front and Rear Bulkheads
Updated Front and Rear Bulkheads

The front and rear bulkheads have been updated to match the new gearboxes designed for the DBXL-E 2.0. Two additional mounting locations were added to the side of the bulkheads to keep the gearboxes from rocking up and down under acceleration and braking. This provides a more stable drivetrain, and increased overall durability.

 

Aluminum Center Diff Cup
Aluminum Center Diff Cup

Returning from the original DBXL-E is the aluminum diff cup used in the center differential. Today's brushless motors produce so much power, that you need to have the added strength and durability in the center diff that only an aluminum diff cup can provide.

 

New Shocks with Laser Etched FOX Logo Shock Caps
New Shocks with Laser Etched FOX Logo Shock Caps

New shock bodies with a lower aluminum cap that allows for easier maintenance of the shock seals for improved performance. Sometimes, it is about the details. New upper shock caps with laser etched FOX logo set off that race inspired look.

 

Laser Etched FOX Logo Shock Caps
MAXXIS Creepy Crawler Tires with Authentic Bead Lock Wheels

Genuine MAXXIS creepy crawler tread pattern tires provide added traction and offer extra control so you can stop, turn and swerve like a pro. Have confidence your tires will never come unglued and make tires changes a breeze with authentic bead lock wheels.

 

Aluminum Shock Towers

We couldn't just stop at the shocks. The DBXL-E 2.0 gets all new Aluminum Shock Towers Front and rear with revised camber mounting locations for improved stability and handling.

 

Heavy Duty Drivetrain

New Radio Tray
New Radio Tray

All new radio tray with sealed receiver box. The new radio tray allows for multiple steering servo configurations. Can be run as a single servo, or updated to run dual steering servos for maximum steering performance.

 

New ESC Mount
New ESC Mount

To create space for the larger battery trays, we needed to find a new home for the ESC. The ESC has been relocated to a mounting plate off the center differential. This allows for optimal weight distribution within the car, while increasing the air flow over the top of the ESC for better running performance.

 

New Race Themed Livery
New Race Themed Livery

New Fox Shox race inspired Motorsports themed livery for that true off-road look, along with an awesome Losi flame design trim scheme.

Spektrum Smart Technology

 

Spektrum DX3 Radio System
Smart Battery Voltage Indicator
Spektrum DX3 Radio System

The Spektrum DX3 radio system offers advanced features like AVC control, a 3-position throttle limiting switch and travel adjust. It features exclusive DSMR® technology for superior range, response, and interference resistance. It's also fully compatible with the Smart telemetry potential provided by the vehicle's installed Spektrum Firma Smart 40A ESC/receiver, and has a convenient voltage level indicator for any Spektrum Smart batteries!

 

The Full-Throttle Freedom of AVC<sup>®</sup> Technology
The Full-Throttle Freedom of AVC® Technology

The receiver's built-in AVC® (Active Vehicle Control®) traction control system works behind the scenes, making hundreds of throttle and steering adjustments per second, so more of the motor's power is translated into ballistic speed and acceleration instead of just flying dirt. The patent-pending AVC system adds a level of performance that simply cannot be found with any vehicle from any manufacturer other than Horizon Hobby. Like traction control in your full-scale vehicle, you can activate or deactivate the system on the fly and adjust the level of stability based on driving conditions. Any RC vehicle can go fast and with AVC you can go faster while maintaining optimum stability in all driving conditions.
