INTRODUCTION
Brian Deegan is one of the most recognized names in action sports
today. In his specially-prepared Ford Fiesta® ST rally car, Deegan
combines laser-precise driving with tire-smoking fury to perform
seemingly impossible moves. His on-road acrobatics require a
vehicle that can deliver intense power through all four wheels, with
the responsiveness and "feel" that only a finely tuned machine can
provide. In radio control, that car is the Ford Fiesta® ST Rally from
Traxxas. This officially licensed race replica features the unmistakable
NOS® Energy graphics of Brian Deegan's full-size Ford Fiesta ST®
rally car. The specially tuned suspension and tire compounds let you
ride the slip angle with thrilling precision, drifting the car sideways
through turns and putting your skills to the test as you master rally-
style driving right in your own driveway.
Beneath the bodywork, your new model includes a powerful Titan
12T 550 motor, a smooth XL-5 electronic speed control, waterproof
electronics, and a monocoque-style chassis for outstanding handling
and incredible speed and power. Your Traxxas model is designed
for high-performance driving, with balanced weight distribution,
lightweight and high-strength materials, and the precise engineering
that is the hallmark of all Traxxas vehicles.
This manual contains the instructions you will need to operate,
and maintain your model so that you can enjoy it for years to come.
