Telemetry was a little much for the car I'm running it on. Planning RPM sensor and heat sensor for battery and speed control. Needs Traxxas Link module and Link program on phone or other Bluetooth compatible devices. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great add on if you can swallow the price tag *by on Reviewed in the United States May 8, 2024* As with a lot of Traxxas stuff, this one is a bit spendy. It does however install and setup easily with the Traxxas app, and reports some useful info. There are cheaper alternatives out there. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect fit *by on Reviewed in the United States January 8, 2025* Good price ## Frequently Bought Together - Traxxas 6553X Telemetry Expander 2.0 and GPS Module 2.0, TQi Tadio System - Traxxas 6532 Transmitter Phone Mount --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.nz/products/107462242-traxxas-6553x-telemetry-expander-2-0-and-gps-module-2](https://www.desertcart.nz/products/107462242-traxxas-6553x-telemetry-expander-2-0-and-gps-module-2) --- *Product available on Desertcart New Zealand* *Store origin: NZ* *Last updated: 2026-08-27*
