The Xmaxx just inspires confidence like no other RC. You can send it to the moon and drive away, or you can be gentle and it will last forever. You can even convert it to an XRT and it’s slightly faster than an XRT. Xmaxx, 4 batteries, charger, hop ups, and XRT swap parts is less than $2,000. I’ve had mine box stock for 4 months and I regularly go the BMX track and I’ve never broken anything. I still have the OG servo.
You should commit your RC car energy to creating your own RC Car company building them to the markets Highest apex of Durability with all steel & or aluminum or titanium parts
Congrats, Kev. Here's to a smooth transition to the Isle of Mann. What an absolutely gorgeous place. Because of all your hard work and goofy insanity, you deserve all the good fortune. We have enjoyed watching you grow over the years, and here's to many more interesting, fun, and wacky adventures and videos. Keep Bashing, brother!!!🤪❤💯👍👍👊🤘💥
Yuppers mad props to Kevin i have been watching and trying to learn more and more from your expertise and was into RC as a youngster...grew out of it or so i thought I did till I realized it is not just a kid sport and was always a hobby car n boat builder and when I found out that RC was making kits just like a model building it learning how it works and how to repair it if it breaks funny it be I grew up to be a Auto Technician and still love hobby stuff from cars to crafts and now with you're inspiring ideas and thoughts on similar subjects I look up to you as a Hero yuppers a true heroic person with extremely excellent talents and truly inspired by all keep up the amazing work stunts and awesome videos I will keep watching if you keep making more and more thanks again from a avid RC fan from Golden Valley Arizona.!!!!!!
I just imagine being a kid, looking out my window, and seeing grown men holding up a ramp so RC cars can jump off it higher. Also, what an awesome island, going to need some crazy grippy shoes for those slippery rocks!
I definitely feel like this year your video quality has definitely gone up props to your editor and YOU fro making great content have a good day kev!!!
@@myprojectcalledlife i don’t disagree there. but the good thing in usa is it’s big and we have so many places to go to. but many of our diverse cities have the same problems. b people and crime
You are definitely living peoples dream rite there. Congratulations on getting accepted for a house. You couldn't of picked a better place. I'd love to live around there. Especially for the TT. Just shows if you work hard and stick to it you will make it in life. Well done Kevin 👏
You're right, that area looks like it was made for RC. Would really like to see the houses you're looking at and to know what the asking prices are. After military service (100% DAV) I became a real estate broker, retired in 2006.
Nice work as always Kev. Apart from one or two places, Traxxas really knocked it out of the park with the Xmaxx design. It just takes a kicking. I think I remember you saying you might get a private pilots license, for travelling back and forth to the mainland. Do take us on that trip with you.
I wonder if you could modify skateboard/longboard wheels for the top speed car. Theyd just need a tiny rim to fit where the bearings usually go. But the extra weight & mass could possibly help dampen/slow the urge for the tires to break-loose. Also the soft, compliant & heavy material would absorb shock & bumps & keep the car more planted at speed imo
Here’s a Suggestion if you could some land you could do a big project and make a skate park in the back of your house and then you can bash all day long
Kev I'm a huge fan and I really like your videos I've been watching them for a almost a year I even made 1 tiny rc car at home I would really love to get an rc car from you doesn't have to be big it can be small thank you
Can't wait to see the truck and yourself in person hopefully at Monster Truck Nationals dude! My son's buzzing to get a photo 👌🏻🤣 It's going to be EPIC!
Yes I agree with you mate,RCMan is a great addition ,BUT we're going to lose all the regular crew the people he's been friends with for years,Stempy ,Ian and Claire, Dave ( hard-core rc ) and his sons,Martin and kids,Vinnie, Jono,8s Steve,Mitchell ,Jason from Redfin Models,racing at Arc raceway and all the others we've got to know through his videos. Nothing against RCMan and the others on the Isle of Man but I think the videos will lose something as the others have been with him for years. Hopefully he'll come back and make videos with the original crew from time to time as there is genuine camaraderie there,especially with Stempy as they've been mates since they were little kids
So exciting to have the opportunity to pick up and move to such a beautiful place. Seen the Isle a few times when watching the Isle Of Mann TT, such a cool race with beautiful scenery. Also, congrats to Patrick. Am a little jealous but sounds like he’s stoked so went to a great fan.
Another great video the smile on your face when you mention the Isle of man says it all and thats all that is important do what makes you happy. Sod the trolls there just jealous
@KevinTalbot I noticed you having a backpack on, I'm assuming its like a kit for when your away from your car.. if it is, think you can do a video on what you bring when you do go out bashing and making video's?
what are best tyres for bashing an xmaxx??? stock or sledgehammers? or any other than gives such good air control as stock? as i have belted tyres now and don’t like how it basically lost all the air control :(
Kevin you need to have your guys edit up a video of the best, or worst crashes, collisions, bad landings and most expensive accidents…It would get tons of views
How I look forward to seeing you guys cock about with these toys and bringing a smile to my dial! I can't wait to run my old-school nitros again, and fix my ancient brushed electric truck! Now I am so so keen to play!
Love my Xmaxx I run mine on two smc 7600 150c lipos and it has so much power, other than the roof rack I think I’ll upgrade the servo later on and that’s all it needs it’s pretty much perfect out of the box 😊
For high speed wheels try a hard rubber like Hockey puck. Drill center out, turn them down on a lathe and drill holes in the sides for weight reduction.
summer a bit cooler, winter a bit warmer, rarely freezes. 3 days extra rain per month but rain normally passes quickly, no chemtrails, extra 20min sunlight per day average, dont sound too bad to me! I'll soon find out!
@@KevinTalbotTV if it improves your life and you enjoy the experience then good on you bro. It’s totally changed your videos, reminds me of why I subbed 💯👍
If u move there Kevin will u still have the old crew in the house?? Claire n hubby 8s Steve n son n the rest of the crew?? Been following for a long time.. Great videos Man
i really hope he gets a property big enough to make his own shop, rc track, craweler course, and basher setup so we can get amazing content and he can live his best life
i'am wondering wich one is the best between the Xmaxx and the XRT i know one is lower and wider so maybe more grip but i can't chose pleas help!!!!!!!!
For the top speed cars, how about some full 1-piece wheel & tire (or just tire) made from the softer longboard/skateboard wheel material? Something with some hollow space/spokes to keep the weight & rotating mass down. Itd be grippy, durable.. and compliant to absorb shock etc. You'd swear the foam wheel company keeps their design crappy to maximize sales & profits. I feel like as a company, making an affordable & robust wheel/tire wouldn't be that challenging.🤷♂️
Hey Kev been watching your vids for a bit now especially xmaxx vids. Because of you I just went and bought me one. OMG I love it. Also have a 2wd rustler, 4wd slash, and the supra 4tec. Thanks for the content buddy.
Hey Kevin I've got quick question about your raminators, Is the grave digger body smaller in comparison to the ram body? I've been thinking about getting the grave digger because it looks bigger and I don't want to waste money👍
you lot are so mad great entertainment Kev mate the Isle of mann is such a nice place I've not been for along time anyway all the best great video bro👍😎😊👊🇬🇧
Real car tires always have some kind of reinforcement bakes in, like steel mesh. Also rc tires have foam inside them that is much more susceptible to centrifugal force that regular air or nitrogen. Rc cars also have a ridiculous amount of wheel rpm, and if scaled up would be faster than any car ever
Damn' Kev love the vids... im gonna leave germany soon as well. Isle of Man is my fave, and has been my fave for some time now. might catch u drivin my rc there. keep it up.

It is beautiful there. I'm wowed by how many rc friendly spots there are. Crawling seem like will be most awesome.
It makes me really happy to see you so happy mate and you have also found some buddies that have the same humor as you😄
Can't wait to see the truck and yourself in person hopefully at Monster Truck Nationals dude! My son's buzzing to get a photo 👌🏻🤣 It's going to be EPIC!
come to pit party :)
@KevinTalbotTV thanks for the reminder mate! Definitely will pop along to say hi, totally forgot about pit party. 👌🏻
RCMan is the perfect addition to you guys.

friends and family is the only thing im going to miss about the UK. I'll be back every few weeks to see everyone and play RC's :)
Kev when did you are going to review or test the Trx4m? I’ve been waiting for that for so long
Wait till the TT comes around, it's utter carnage and the greatest show on Earth mate. The Manx is awesome as well.
Kevin love you lot Miss your video ❤❤
So exciting to have the opportunity to pick up and move to such a beautiful place. Seen the Isle a few times when watching the Isle Of Mann TT, such a cool race with beautiful scenery.
Also, congrats to Patrick. Am a little jealous but sounds like he’s stoked so went to a great fan.
That's awesome Kev, I never dreamed you would find a whole fricn Island lol I knew you would come up with something cool but this is over the top 🔥
Be cool to install G-force telemetry. Curious to see how hard these things are coming down.
These are the videos I miss💯.
Another great video the smile on your face when you mention the Isle of man says it all and thats all that is important do what makes you happy. Sod the trolls there just jealous
thanks bro, yeah i love it here, like a little dream land
@KevinTalbot I noticed you having a backpack on, I'm assuming its like a kit for when your away from your car.. if it is, think you can do a video on what you bring when you do go out bashing and making video's?
Keep following your dreams Kev! You’re an inspiration
honestly my worry is part support given its an island away, so will you get massive shipments of parts
We need more of the old style intros
Wow what beautiful scenery!!. The content is gonna get better then ever!!!
Hey Kev, I was thinking you should see if you can do a build using a scale V8-V12 gas engine. See what you can come up with :D
Whats better, use 2 3s lipos, or use one 6s lipo? For bashing
I've seen the YES MATE van about a few times now, all the best house hunting Kevin!
thanks bro
what are best tyres for bashing an xmaxx??? stock or sledgehammers? or any other than gives such good air control as stock? as i have belted tyres now and don’t like how it basically lost all the air control :(
Love the video!! The bashing locations over there are incredible!!!
yeeeeeeee boy!!
What an amazing place Kevin😍, the spots for doing good rc seems to be endless, hope it will be good for you in the future 🥰
You guys have the cool places in the Uk
It definitely looks like a beautiful place for sure. Who wouldn't be happy living there 😁
August 20 is my birthday and that’s the exact day you’re doing the monster truck show
I loveeeed this place Kev.. Cant wait to see ur new shop!
Nice Video I love it.
And the Isle of Mann is so cool.
What do you think X-MAXX or XRT?
yes xmaxx is the answer for everything... just a few light mods on mine and it's unkillable love it so much
Kevin you need to have your guys edit up a video of the best, or worst crashes, collisions, bad landings and most expensive accidents…It would get tons of views
Great content, Kev i love your videos ❤
Maybe you'll bump into Big Clive when he gets back from work?! That'll be fun. 🥴👍
Can't wait for that Hilux durability test Kev!!!
How I look forward to seeing you guys cock about with these toys and bringing a smile to my dial! I can't wait to run my old-school nitros again, and fix my ancient brushed electric truck! Now I am so so keen to play!
Love my Xmaxx I run mine on two smc 7600 150c lipos and it has so much power, other than the roof rack I think I’ll upgrade the servo later on and that’s all it needs it’s pretty much perfect out of the box 😊
You guys are a good rc crew...👍...
"Take it home and fix it." I see what ya did there Kev. 😹
Love your style kev been following you and your vids for the past year now... Love the energy. Keep at it...💪💪💪💪💯💯💯💯👑👑👑👑👑👑
Yess a video from Kevin what smiles me every time😊❤
Who else loves it when Max breaks his cars?
Freekin gotta get an X MAX. Thing is the toughest RC on the earth.
I love what you do Kev! Keep on doing what you love doing!
Finally a new Kev video... what am I to do all day at work? geez..
Kev, I've had my xmaxx for about 6 months now and I've noticed that mine begins to squeak just like your is at 7:30. How do you quiet it down?
For high speed wheels try a hard rubber like Hockey puck. Drill center out, turn them down on a lathe and drill holes in the sides for weight reduction.
No grip tho
I love th3 fact that there was a gorgeous black lancer evo sitting th3re at 6:07 on the right
Best Video ever - good look by house hunting...
Yes, onex lipos are awesome we have 2s and 3s ones and they work great and are very powerful
I was excited to see the losi mini make a few jumps. I love my losi dragster chevelle but I'm tender with mine
Hi bro love the videos man! Do you recommend doing the widemaxx kit on the x-maxx 8s or leaving it stock?
It’s literally nice for 3 months of the year then it’s miserable weather is far worse than the uk
summer a bit cooler, winter a bit warmer, rarely freezes. 3 days extra rain per month but rain normally passes quickly, no chemtrails, extra 20min sunlight per day average, dont sound too bad to me! I'll soon find out!
@@KevinTalbotTV bigclive lives on the iom and says it gets pretty blustery given its in the middle of the irish sea

🧂🧂🧂
Chemtrails😅
Definitely pushing them to the limits 😆👍 nice video!
Looking good kev. Definitely way more better areas to go bashing RC's around. 👌
still a nice truck by Traxxas when watching it today.
If u move there Kevin will u still have the old crew in the house?? Claire n hubby 8s Steve n son n the rest of the crew?? Been following for a long time.. Great videos Man
Yes, I’m still going to visit
i really hope he gets a property big enough to make his own shop, rc track, craweler course, and basher setup so we can get amazing content and he can live his best life
IT would be worth it to see the motorcycle race each year.
And every year, you could take all the subscribers to the race😊😊
It definitely looks like it could be heaven!👍🤙🇨🇦
i'am wondering wich one is the best between the Xmaxx and the XRT i know one is lower and wider so maybe more grip but i can't chose pleas help!!!!!!!!
Xmaxx for the win!!! Boom!
For the top speed cars, how about some full 1-piece wheel & tire (or just tire) made from the softer longboard/skateboard wheel material? Something with some hollow space/spokes to keep the weight & rotating mass down. Itd be grippy, durable.. and compliant to absorb shock etc.
You'd swear the foam wheel company keeps their design crappy to maximize sales & profits. I feel like as a company, making an affordable & robust wheel/tire wouldn't be that challenging.🤷♂️
I get the vibe Isle of Man is more laid back. Any one else agree?
Niceee !! Paradise ? Paddle tires by Sunrise before Miami Beach gets crowded & patrolled by numerous atv's.
Hey kev love the vids I just picked up a k10 high trail the other week wondering if you could do a vid or a build on one im from Canada
Wow that island is so nice
i enjoy these small doable tricks and nice long lines 1000x more than vertical takeoff and crash
Watching from Philippines 🇵🇭
That skate park is soo nice
Does anyone have a good recommendation for a hobby grade servo for a resonable budget
You should get Isle of man tourism to sponsor your content! Definitely making me want to move there anyway 🤷🏼♂️
Hey Kev been watching your vids for a bit now especially xmaxx vids. Because of you I just went and bought me one. OMG I love it. Also have a 2wd rustler, 4wd slash, and the supra 4tec. Thanks for the content buddy.
Should i get a mini revo . The fast one. Or the e revo 2.0??.
have you found a RC shop on the island yet ?? Got to think if you can get all your parts also
Hey Kevin I've got quick question about your raminators, Is the grave digger body smaller in comparison to the ram body? I've been thinking about getting the grave digger because it looks bigger and I don't want to waste money👍
you lot are so mad great entertainment Kev mate the Isle of mann is such a nice place I've not been for along time anyway all the best great video bro👍😎😊👊🇬🇧
I would love to have an 8S X-Maxx. Hello from Northeast Louisiana
So regarding your foam tyre issue I was wondering why rubber tyres like something similar to a car racing tyre would not be sufficient?
Real car tires always have some kind of reinforcement bakes in, like steel mesh. Also rc tires have foam inside them that is much more susceptible to centrifugal force that regular air or nitrogen. Rc cars also have a ridiculous amount of wheel rpm, and if scaled up would be faster than any car ever
Damn' Kev love the vids... im gonna leave germany soon as well. Isle of Man is my fave, and has been my fave for some time now. might catch u drivin my rc there. keep it up.
cant believe ive just got an xmaxx somehow after watching your videos man xD
Can you drive the udr and sonicwake v2
