Surface-hardened, precisionground, and micro-polished 12mm IPS crankshaft provides smooth and efficient power output.

Special aluminum alloys provide long-lasting piston life. The lightweight reciprocating assembly allows higher revving performance and reduced part stress.

Carburetor

Connecting Rod

The carburetor for the TRX Pro.15 features a larger 6mm intake bore for better breathing. Double O-ring sealing on both the low and high-speed needle adjustments help to eliminate air leaks. The carburetor barrel has a dust cap for extra protection against dirt.

This special channeled-beam connecting rod offers greater strength and long-lasting performance. The channeled design has an extra benefit of directing the oil flow down to the crankshaft bushing.

Aluminum Piston

Ball Bearings

The TRX Pro.15’s durable aluminum piston features an oil groove in the top. The oil groove promotes better sealing and compression. It also increases the lubrication between the cylinder sleeve and the piston, reducing wear and heat.

The TRX Pro.15 uses precision steel ball bearings for high-performance, high-RPM durability. The ball bearings reduce friction so the engine will perform more responsively. The bearings are also sealed to keep out dirt.

FUELED BY PASSION

TRX 3.3 Nitro Racing Engine The TRX® 3.3 Racing Engine draws from a legacy of precision Traxxas engine design and manufacturing. Traxxas has always been at the forefront of innovation, beginning with the powerful and reliable TRX Pro.15. Next, the Traxxas EZ-Start® system ushered in a new era of convenience and ease of use with true, push-button electric starting. EZ-Start later evolved to incorporate built-in diagnostic functions, LED indicators, a constant-voltage glow plug circuit, and more powerful starter motors. Then came the TRX 2.5, a marvel of award-winning power and technology that sent the bar for Ready-To-Race® performance to unimaginable new heights. Fast forward to the present and 14 years of nitro engine development have culminated into the most powerful TRX engine ever made, the new TRX 3.3 Racing Engine. It embodies everything we’ve learned from over a decade of making engines more powerful, more reliable, and easier to use. The TRX 3.3 Racing Engine is so powerful it establishes a whole new classification of power... Extreme Power! The TRX 3.3 produces an extreme 60% more peak horsepower compared to the TRX 2.5! The overall power under the curve is nearly 50% greater to deliver the smooth, linear power output TRX engines are famous for. The TRX 3.3 Racing Engine offers thoroughbred race engine performance that’s absolutely second to none. There’s no penalty to pay for having more power either. The TRX 3.3 Racing Engine is equipped with EZ-Start push-button electric starting and simple, reliable tuning from the two-needle composite slide carburetor. Plus it’s backed by the support and reliability you expect from Traxxas including the exclusive Lifetime Engine Replacement Plan.

Performance Features TRX Composite Slide Carburetor The TRX 3.3 is equipped with same high-performance slide carburetor that has reliably powered a generation of TRX Racing Engines. The slide type carburetor provides less restrictive, straight through airflow for more power and improved throttle response. Because it is molded, Traxxas engineers incorporated superior internal design enhancements and precision not possible with traditional machined carburetor. The composite material does not transfer heat like aluminum for more consistent tuning.

High-Volume Air Filter The air filter is often overlooked as being a key to engine performance and life. Not so with the TRX Racing Engines! It’s ultra low-restriction air filter provides superior air-flow and filtration for more power and long engine life. The inside of the filter mates perfectly to the carburetor to eliminate turbulence as air passes through the carburetor. The two-stage design features a reusable oiled foam element that’s easy to maintain and a built-in fine-mesh pre-filter.

Piston and Sleeve The piston is composed of a proprietary material that reduces wear and extends engine life. The piston and sleeve materials are also unique in their ability to maintain consistent fit through the engines operating temperature range. The sleeve ports are larger, increasing power through improved efficiency and scavenging.

Connecting Rod The knife-edged connecting rod reduces internal drag and turbulence. The channeled design provides the strength to handle the power of the TRX 3.3 and also directs the oil-flow down to the crankshaft.

Ball Bearings The quality and smoothness of an engine’s ball bearings contribute to the life and performance of the engine. The TRX 3.3 uses only topgrade, ultra-high performance, large diameter ball bearings. Top quality bearings improve power by reducing parasitic friction. The rear engine bearing uses a high-tech composite cage for reliable operation at engine speeds that approach 50,000rpm!

Crankcase The TRX 3.3 uses a new crankcase engineered with high-tech porting and cooling refinements to boost power output. Precision casting provides the strength needed for the TRX 3.3’s high power output. The external dimensions allow the TRX 3.3 to fit anywhere a TRX 2.5 or TRX 2.5R was installed.

IPS Crankshaft The new crankshaft design has dyno-proven timing and port flow to optimize fuel delivery into the engine. The crank is surface hardened, precision ground and micro-polished for superior life and durability. Traxxas IPS crankshaft design makes the TRX 3.3 compatible with any model equipped with a TRX 2.5 or TRX 2.5R Racing Engine.

PowerTune™ Head The giant PowerTune machined aluminum cooling head promotes even heat distribution for stable engine temps and rock-solid tuning consistency. The newly designed molded head protector is securely fastened to the top of the head with precision hex screws.

Head Protector The impact resistant head protector is secured to cylinder head with screws so it won’t fall off. It’s designed to absorb harsh impacts and to protect your cylinder head from roll overs.

Straight-through Exhaust Flow The rear-facing round exhaust port provides unrestricted “straight-through” exhaust flow. There are other rear exhaust engines, but the innovative shape of the TRX 3.3’s exhaust port was carefully engineered to provide unrestricted exhaust flow, while at the same time maintaining a low exhaust port height. The low exhaust port height provides a longer duration power stroke for increased efficiency and total power output.

O-Ring Exhaust Gasket The exhaust header features an extra-tough, finned mounting base that dissipates heat and is sealed with a reliable O-ring gasket. This virtually eliminates troublesome, messy exhaust leaks that steal engine power and efficiency.

Traxxas Lifetime Engine Replacement Plan™

The Traxxas Lifetime Engine Replacement Plan is the easiest way to boost the power and speed in your model. Years ago we saw a need for our customers to have an easy and affordable way to protect their investment in their Traxxas nitro model and keep the engine performance factory-fresh. Our solution is the Lifetime Engine Replacement Plan,* developed exclusively for our customers. Engines wear out over time and need to be rebuilt. Rebuilding engines from parts can be costly and time consuming; and can be outside the mechanical skills of many enthusiasts. With the Traxxas Lifetime Engine Replacement Plan, a worn out or damaged engine can be traded in for a brand-new, factory-fresh TRX® Racing Engine right away by simply exchanging your worn engine at your local hobby store. The cost is 1/2 of the retail price of the new replacement engine. It’s less expensive than rebuilding the engine yourself and you get the peace of mind knowing your engine is brand new (not refurbished), and ready to deliver the power and reliability you expect. In many cases, installing the new engine only takes minutes and you’re back in action. Extreme Upgrades The Lifetime Engine Replacement Plan is the extreme-power upgrade path for any model equipped with a TRX 2.5 or TRX 2.5R Racing Engine. When you’re ready, you can use the plan to trade up to the TRX 3.3 Racing Engine and watch your speed and acceleration soar. The TRX 3.3 is 100% “dropin” compatible with TRX 2.5 and 2.5R equipped models. For less than the price of an average, poorly supported aftermarket engine, you can have extreme TRX 3.3 power with 100% drop-in installation, EZ-Start electric starting, full Traxxas reliability and support, and power that is absolutely second to none. If you are a TRX Pro.15 owner, you can trade up to TRX 2.5R power or, if you dare, the TRX 3.3 Racing Engine. $25 conversion kits are available that make it easy to install the rear exhaust, slide carb equipped TRX Racing Engine in place of the TRX Pro.15. Ask your hobby dealer for all the details.

Progressive Suspension Design The key to Revo’s remarkable handling is in the rockers. Revo’s patent-pending linkage-based suspension not only delivers the most suspension travel of any monster truck, it constantly varies both the spring force and damping to match suspension movement. Over small bumps, the suspension is light and responsive, reacting instantly to the surface. Compress the suspension over large jumps and the rocker geometry progressively increases the spring force and shock damping. In an instant, the suspension automatically becomes stiffer when you need it most. Ride height, progressive rate, and damping can all be fine tuned independently of the other. The result is a no-compromise setup that simply would not possible with conventional suspension design. Only Revo delivers the best handling for every extreme.

Nothing Else Even Comes Close.

Nothing else comes close to delivering the total, no-compromise performance and superior innovation found on Revo. Truck of the Year RC Car Action The Traxxas Revo 3.3 turned the R/C world upside down with its unprecedented engineering and unsurpassed performance. It took a team of engineers and a two year mission of research and development to create a benchmark vehicle of this caliber. Never before has so much forward-thinking technology converged on an R/C model. Think of Revo 3.3 as the ultimate supercar of the monster truck world. The perfection and technology that everyone else aspires to achieve. Immerse yourself in the features and details on the next page and you’ll see why Revo 3.3 is simply the world’s most advanced R/C monster truck.

EZ-Start Electric Starting System

Gear Differentials

Nothing beats the convenience and safety of The Traxxas EZ-Start® system. It consists of an onboard drive unit that lights the glow plug and spins the engine for easy push-button starting from the handheld control module. The starter drive is attached to the engine so your hands are safely away from all spinning and moving parts. The controller contains diagnostic LEDs that provide real-time status of the glow plug and starter motor. It tells you if the glow plug has failed and protects the starter motor from overloading.

Bearing supported differentials are supported by the housing, not the output shafts, eliminating stress on the internal differential components caused by belt tension.

3-Belt All-Wheel-Drive Efficient, 3-belt all-wheel-drive system delivers smooth power to the front and rear hardened-steel planetary gear differentials.

Foam Bumper Designed specifically to protect the front end of the Nitro 4-Tec, this bumper can handle a tremendous amount of abuse.

Adjustable Turnbuckles Steel turnbuckles with captured rod ends allow manual adjustment of toein and camber to tune the Nitro 4-Tec for virtually any on-road condition.

Center-Mounted 75cc Fuel Cell The center mounted fuel tank is mounted low in the center of the chassis so that the car’s handling is not affected as the fuel tank becomes empty. This helps the Nitro 4-Tec’s excellent balance and low center-of-gravity.

Oil-Filled Ultra Shocks Two-Speed Transmission The adjustable two-speed transmission delivers blistering acceleration in first gear and then shifts automatically into high gear for 70+mph speed!

Pre-Glued Tires on 2.0” Mesh Wheels The high-performance racing tires come glued to the 2.0” rims. Contoured-foam inserts strengthen the sidewalls and provide a flatter contact patch.

Ultra Shocks™ deliver silkysmooth performance and precise damping control with racing- style clip-on spring pre-load spacers. High-tech X-ring seals provide superior sealing and reduced friction

U-Joint Driveshafts The telescoping, constantvelocity U-joint driveshafts smoothly transfer the power from the differentials to the wheels. Low friction operation makes them perfect for the high speed and RPM of the Nitro 4-Tec. 33
