Comparisons

The Traxxas Maxx 4S RTR Brushless 4x4 RC Monster Truck is a superior RC truck to the Traxxas Stampede XL-5 2WD RTR RC Truck. The Maxx 4S has a brushless motor for increased power and speed, as well as 4-wheel drive for better traction and control. The Stampede XL-5 only has 2-wheel drive, so it can't match the Maxx 4S in terms of performance. In addition, the Maxx 4S comes with a LiPo battery and charger combo package, while the Stampede XL-5 does not include a battery or charger. This makes the Maxx 4S a better value overall.
