Traxxas Skill Level Guide

Choose the Model That is Right For You.

The below skill level guide provides a good overview of our product lineup. The skill levels range from 'Skill Level 1', which requires no prior radio control experience to our highest rating, 'Skill Level 10', that is for expert drivers only. The fastest vehicle may be the most appealing, but we recommend starting with a 'Skill Level 1' or 'Skill Level 2' vehicle to insure a successful entry into the radio control hobby. We're confident that your venture into hobby-class radio control modeling will reward you with nothing but great times. So, go have some fun, and thank you for considering Traxxas.
