How Do You Turn on a Traxxas Stampede RC Car?

For those that have just purchased a Traxxas Stampede RC car, it can be a daunting task to know exactly how to turn it on. In this article, we’ll go through the simple steps of turning on your Traxxas Stampede RC car so you can get out and start having some fun!

First off, you’ll need to make sure you have the necessary batteries in order for your car to operate. This usually consists of two AA batteries for the remote control and one 7.2V rechargeable battery for the car itself. Make sure these are charged and inserted properly before attempting to turn on your RC car.

Once you’ve got all the necessary batteries ready, locate the power switch at the back of your Traxxas Stampede RC car. This is usually a small toggle switch located near the motor or rear axle area.

Flip this switch up into the ‘on’ position and you should see a red LED light come on at this point, letting you know that your car is now powered up and ready to go!

Next, take your remote control and locate its power button. On most Traxxas remotes this will be found near the top right corner of the controller, though depending on which model you have it may be located elsewhere. Press this button down until you hear a beep sound coming from your RC Car, meaning that it has now been paired with your remote control and is ready to use!

That’s all there is to it! Your Traxxas Stampede RC car is now turned on and ready for action – so go ahead and hit those gas pedals now! Just remember to always practice safety when operating any kind of remote controlled vehicle and make sure not to drive too fast or recklessly in public areas where children or animals may be present.

Conclusion:

In conclusion, turning on your Traxxas Stampede RC car is an easy process that requires only basic knowledge of batteries and switches. All that needs to be done is inserting any necessary batteries into both the car itself as well as its controller (if applicable), flipping a switch located near the motor/rear axle area of the vehicle into an ‘on’ position, then pressing down a button on its controller until a beep sound can be heard showing that they are now synced together. With these steps done correctly, you’re all set for some fun with your new Traxxas Stampede RC Car!
