Telemetry Expander 2.0 & GPS Module 2.0, TQi Radio System

Description

*Requires the TQi radio system with Wireless Module (TRA6511), TSM receiver (TRA6533), Apple device running iOS 9.0 or higher, or Android-equipped device with Android 4.4 and higher, and the Traxxas Link App (latest version available free on Google Play and the App Store)
Important Note: The new GPS Module 2.0 (TRA6551X) & Telemetry Expander 2.0 (TRA6550X) replace the original Telemetry Expander (TRA6550) and GPS Module (TRA6551). The originals are not compatible with the new 2.0 versions.
Traxxas telemetry changes the game by allowing you to monitor and record real-time data from your vehicle while you drive. The waterproof Telemetry Expander 2.0 includes the GPS Module 2.0 for the most accurate speed possible and accepts up to six additional auto-detectable sensors. The Traxxas Link app automatically recognizes sensors, so setup takes only a few moments! Advanced communication bus technology allows you to connect the telemetry expander to your TSM receiver or to your High-Voltage Power Amplifier, or directly to the VXL-6s and VXL-8s electronic speed controls with optional data cables. Install the Telemetry Expander, choose your sensors, and prepare for an all-new RC driving experience!
The Benefits of Traxxas TelemetryThe Traxxas TQi radio system, Wireless Link Module, & Traxxas Link App transform your Apple or Android device into a powerful tuning tool with an intuitive, high-definition, full-color graphical user interface. Adjust your radio trims & settings, vehicle profiles, update model memory, and tailor your vehicle for different driving conditions by means of a virtual dashboard & interactive screens. Using the complete TQi system & Traxxas Link app makes pro-level transmitter tuning fast, convenient, & easy.
Precise GPS-Based SpeedStandard telemetry sensors use your vehicle’s gear ratio & tire size to calculate speed based on RPM. This system works well for hard surfaces, but wheelspin on loose surfaces causes inaccurate speed readings. The Telemetry Expander 2.0 with GPS Module provides the most accurate speed data possible. The GPS Module 2.0 uses both GPS & GLONASS global positioning to deliver precise, real-time speed information via the Traxxas Link App on your TQi Radio System with Traxxas Link Wireless Module.
Easy to ConnectTraxxas models equipped with the TQi radio systemThe Telemetry Expander 2.0 connects directly to the TQi receiver using the supplied TRA6525 communication link cable.
X-Maxx, E-Revo, and Unlimited Desert RacerInstall the Telemetry Expander 2.0 and GPS Module for even more accurate speed measurements compared to the built in speed output from the VXL 6S and VXL 8S electronic speed controls. Plus, add the ability to install additional sensors to monitor parameters such as motor temperature. The Telemetry Expander connects directly to the VXL-6S or VXL-8S electronic speed control using the new Traxxas Data Link Cable TRA6566 (sold separately). Using the TRA6566 cable is a plug-and-play solution that conveniently eliminates the need to open the waterproof receiver box to add additional cables.
Vehicles equipped with the TRA6590 High Voltage power amplifierThe TRA6590 High Voltage Power supply is used for lighting accessories such as the 8485 off-road lighting set for the Unlimited Desert Racer. The TRA6550X Telemetry Expander can be conveniently connected directly to the TRA6590 high voltage power amplifier using the new TRA6565 Data Link Cable (sold separately). This provides a quick and easy plug-and-play connection without having to open the waterproof receiver box to add additional cables.
