Traxxas Link Wireless Module - Bluetooth Tuning Tool for TQi

Our review of the Traxxas Link Wireless Module looks at a simple, effective way to turn a TQi transmitter into a mobile tuning station. The bottom line: this module is for Traxxas owners who already run a wireless ready TQi radio and want to fine tune their setup on an Android or iOS device using Bluetooth low energy. Installation is straightforward and it unlocks the Traxxas Link app's full-color interface for adjusting profiles and telemetry, so the biggest reason to buy is the convenience of on-the-fly tuning with a phone or tablet.

Key Features

• Bluetooth low energy: Connects reliably to Android 4.4+ and iOS 4.3+ so users can control settings from modern mobile devices.
• App integration: The Traxxas Link app provides a full-color graphical interface that makes tuning intuitive and visual for precise adjustments.
• Transmitter plug-in: Plugs into wireless ready TQi transmitters to add mobile tuning without modifying the radio permanently.
• Replacement quality: Built from high quality materials to match Traxxas stock and hop-up parts for long-lasting performance.
• Telemetry ready: Works with accessory Traxxas Link telemetry sensors to display real-time vehicle data for more informed tuning.

Who It's For

The Traxxas Link Wireless Module is best for Traxxas RTR owners who already have a wireless ready TQi transmitter and want quick, visual access to setup changes via a phone or tablet; racers and hobbyists who save multiple profiles will appreciate the ease of switching presets. It is also useful for anyone adding telemetry sensors to monitor motor, battery, or speed data in real time with the Traxxas Link app.

Those who should look elsewhere include users without a compatible TQi transmitter or hobbyists who prefer to tune directly on a transmitter screen rather than via a mobile device; the module does not replace a transmitter, it extends it.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Works well with the Traxxas TQi ecosystem and provides smooth Bluetooth connectivity for Android and iOS.
• Easy installation and high build quality that matches Traxxas replacement hardware expectations.
• Enables saving of different profiles and quick adjustments through a clear, full-color app interface.

Cons

• Requires a wireless ready TQi transmitter and compatible mobile device, so not a standalone product.
• Advanced tuning still depends on the app and accessory telemetry sensors for the fullest feature set.
