EXTREME FULL-THROTTLE FUN WITH SELF-RIGHTING ABILITY!
Spartan SR (Self Righting) is built for speed and performance. Pull the trigger and Spartan SR immediately rips across the water to its heart-pounding 80+ Km/h or 50+ mph top speed! There is nothing else like it and nothing holding you back. If a wave pitches the wrong direction, self righting is on board and within seconds, Spartan SR is back to extreme, high speed - full-throttle fun!
Overview
The Traxxas Spartan SR 6S is a high-performance RC boat designed for incredible speeds and exceptional handling on the water. Its sleek hull and powerful brushless motor system can propel it to speeds exceeding 50mph, delivering an adrenaline-filled power boat experience. This boat features a self-righting design, ensuring it flips back upright if capsized, while its rigid construction and waterproof electronics make it a durable and reliable choice for RC boat enthusiasts.
Razor-Sharp Handling
Spartan SR’s deep-V ABS hull carefully balances speed with agility for a truly thrilling driving experience. A new electronics layout and battery tray drastically improve handling precision by concentrating the weight inboard along the centerline. The result is razor-sharp handling, no-lift turns, and superior high-speed stability.
Unique Look
The Spartan SR 6S is a looker as well as a performer. It comes with eye-catching factory-applied graphics in several colour options, making sure it stands out both on the shelf and on the water.
Key Features
The deep-V hull design not only contributes to speed but also provides a crucial self-righting feature. If the boat flips over during a run, the design of the hull will take on water and the weight distribution will naturally cause it to flip back into an upright position, minimizing downtime and frustration.
Water Safe Electronics s
The Traxxas Spartan SR 6S is ready for all-weather action thanks to its waterproof electronics. The VXL-6s ESC has been powered by Castle and paired with a high-torque steering servo. All electronics have been factory-sealed, protecting them from moisture and allowing you to confidently run the boat in the conditions it was built for.
TQI Radio System
The included TQi radio system offers precise and reliable long-range control over your Spartan SR 6S. It operates on the 2.4GHz frequency band, making it less prone to interference. Additionally, the radio supports Traxxas Stability Management (TSM), which adds an electronic stability control system for smoother handling, especially at high speeds.
Built Tough
High-speed RC boats endure significant stress, and the Spartan is built to withstand the demands. Its hull is constructed with tough composite materials, and the transom (the rear part of the boat) is reinforced to handle the powerful motor and the forces encountered during high-speed runs.
THIS. IS. SPEED!
The Spartan SR 6S is built to deliver blistering speeds exceeding 50mph. This is achieved through a combination of its powerful Velineon 540XL Brushless motor (1850kV), the water-cooled Castle powered VXL-6s marine ESC, and a sleek, low-drag hull specifically designed to cut through the water with minimal resistance.
Details
High Performance Prop
Spartan's prop gets the hull on plane quickly to reach maximum speed with the least current draw. Traxxas engineers tested countless prop configurations to find the perfect balance of performance, efficiency, and durability. Molded composite construction makes the prop light and tough, with no balancing or sharpening required.
High Strength Aluminum Hardware
Spartan’s rudder and drive strut are machined from tough 6000-series aluminum for maximum strength and then anodized vivid blue for that unmistakable Traxxas look. The drive strut uses special bushings for corrosion-free performance and features an oiling hole for easy maintenance.
Stainless Steel Hex Hardware
Spartan uses corrosion-resistant stainless-steel and nickel-plated hardware throughout for good looks, easy maintenance, and long-lasting performance.
Stainless Steel Trim Tabs & Turn Fins
Spartan's dual trim tabs and turn fins are critical to its high-speed performance. The parts are precision die-cut and bent from stainless steel to resist corrosion as they provide aggressive cornering 'bite' and the proper hull attitude for water-boiling speed.
Streamlined Water Outlet
Spartan's water outlet is streamlined and integrated into the hull to maintain its sleek look. Even the smallest details are important when creating a 50+ mph speed machine.
Clipless Latching System
Spartan comes outfitted from the factory with heavy duty, low-profile hatch nuts to keep the rigid ABS hatch securely fastened. Just a quick turn with the included hatch nut tool gives you full access to the hull. Spartan also includes a set of optional wingnuts for quick toolless installation and removal.
Factory-Applied Graphics
Spartan's bold graphics make a statement on the lake, with a custom look even pro painters can't match. No painting or decals are required; all the graphics are pre-applied to get Spartan out of the box and into the water with speed and style.
36″ or 927mm Deep-V Hull (Overall length 1037mm or 1.037m)
Spartan SR’s deep-V hull gets on plane quickly and efficiently for maximum acceleration and speed. The large 36″ hull provides a commanding presence on the water and delivers excellent stability and responsiveness whether cutting through chop or skimming across glassy water.
Water Cooling System
A pickup in the aluminum rudder sends cooling water to the motor and ESC. A sealed motor jacket flows water directly around the aluminum can for maximum heat transfer. This efficient design helps Spartan keep its cool, run after run, for trouble-free all-day fun.
High Torque Waterproof Servo
Spartan requires a powerful steering servo for responsive performance, and Traxxas delivers with the 2056 high-torque servo. O-ring seals make the servo completely waterproof, and there's plenty of steering muscle with 80 oz-in of torque at your command.
Spartan and Spartan SR
Heavy Duty Flex Shaft
Spartan’s new heavy duty 4.7 mm flex shaft is 25% larger in diameter for the ultimate in power handling and reliability. Additionally, Spartan’s new electronics tray maximizes efficiency by moving the motor further back for a shorter and more direct path to the prop.
Quick-Release Flex Cable
Spartan SR’s clamping collet holds the flex cable tightly and centers it perfectly with the motor's output shaft for smooth, efficient operation. The collet releases quickly with a twist of the included wrench for easy maintenance. Once loosened, the prop and flex cable simply slide out, making it easy to keep your Spartan SR running in peak form.
Velineon 540XL Motor
The 1800 Kv Velineon 540XL motor is optimized for maximum power and efficiency in marine applications with ultra high-temperature sintered neodymium magnets, a precision-balanced rotor, and high-speed ball bearings.
Sealed Receiver Box
Traxxas' patented waterproof receiver box routes wires neatly through a special watertight seal. A blue O-ring allows easy access to the receiver box without losing its sealing properties.
Waterproof Electronics
Waterproof electronics are a must in a marine environment. Traxxas electronics are fully waterproof (not just water resistant). The speed control, servo, and receiver all feature rugged waterproofing protection for dependable operation you can count on.
VXL-6s Marine Electronic Speed Control
Designed for 6s LiPo power, the VXL-6s Marine transforms 22+ volts into 50+ mph speed on the water. The VXL-6s Marine is fully waterproof with integrated water cooling in the case and thermal overload protection for reliable all-day performance.
Self Righting Flood Chamber
If Spartan SR should land keel-up in the water, an inlet at the top of the hull begins filling the flood chamber with water. The weight of the water pulls the boat to one side until it rights itself. Apply throttle to evacuate the flood chamber and you’re back in the action. The whole process takes only seconds and requires no special technique or skill.
Adjustable Battery Tray
Spartan’s adjustable center battery tray holds a variety of different LiPo batteries. Convenient hook-and-loop straps and foam pads secure the batteries tightly to prevent load shift, even under the roughest conditions.
Built-In Foam Flotation
Spartan SR’s built-in foam flotation ensures the boat maintains proper buoyancy while self righting. In addition to making Spartan SR virtually unsinkable, the fitted foam insert adds extra rigidity to the bow.
