Matt It all began as a challenge. During the peak of pickup truck modification, after years of creating lifted pickup trucks for competition, the title of “biggest truck” was introduced and monster trucks were born. While initially seen as a novelty to accompany mud bogging and tractor pull events, it was only a matter of time before these behemoths of modern automotive engineering began squaring off for speed rather than just sheer size. The Hälix™ monster truck fulfills this heritage by staying true to those who dared to build bigger and go faster.
Experience the speed, power, performance and overall supremacy of RC monster truck bashing with the Vaterra® Hälix. RC monster trucks have always been about getting out and driving with nothing standing in the way. The Hälix® monster truck is the perfect embodiment of modern RC capabilities. Waterproof electronics coupled with patent pending AVC® technology allow you to drive with nothing held back thanks to a vehicle that remains in control even in the most brutal of environments.
The innovative VTV™ differential prevents wheel spin on loose surfaces when you’re taking on corners or pounding the throttle. Its smooth actuation and consistent feel provide extra confidence over a variety of surface conditions. It is fully sealed and can be fine-tuned using different weights of silicone oil.
Rain or shine, mud or sand, the waterproof electronics and sealed bay lets you run in all kinds of conditions without worry.
*For complete details on waterproof standards, please refer to the product instruction manual.
The Hälix chassis are composed of a durable and lightweight material that can sustain abuse but is still light enough to bash with authority.
The shaft-driven 4WD delivers excellent traction on paved surfaces and superb drift control when sliding across loose surfaces. The differentials are sealed against the elements and can be tuned for a variety of running conditions.
The Hälix Monster Truck comes equipped with a potent 4-pole 540 size 3300Kv brushless motor that delivers speeds of up to 55+ mph* when powered with an optional 3S battery.
*Requires optional Speedpack Platinum 11.1V 5200mAh 3S Li-Po Battery (DYNP4001EC).
Spektrum™ DX2e provides extended range and interference free operation.
Innovative AVC technology comes pre-installed in the Hälix receiver. When engaged, AVC technology utilizes intuitive software, sensors and algorithms to automatically adjust steering and speed controls to deliver a more controllable driving experience.
