    I watched other review videos of this truck and it breaks in all of them. It's too heavy and too weak so you will be throwing good money after bad I think with this truck. It fell apart in your review before you even really started and then broke two more times which speaks for itself. I'm glad you tell the truth in your reviews compared to some of the others I've watched who seem biased because they don't want to upset their sponsors.

    You know something Kev, I just purchased the ZD racing 911 6 V3. and watching you effortlessly Sail through the jumps and control that truck like it was your own arm or something around the skate park with its brother the mt8, is making me so impatient on waiting for it to come in the mail. Your videos are outstanding. Because of them I have just recently purchased three. Thanks again Kev keep up the great videos. Bobby.

    This was the first rig i bought getting back inti the hobby at 31 years old. That was 4 years ago. I still have it of course. Its 6s, has some really heavy billet wheels, awesome tires, self made chassis stiffeners, the most expensive coilovers i could get, and dude i beat the shit outta the thing. Its held up better than my brothers xmax after i modded it all out. It has all billet arms and stainless hardware, really expensive motor and esc combo, 110kg servo, i could go on and on. What made the biggest difference is getting the proportions closer to realistic. I have the truck sitting about twice as high, with wheels and tires half the size. I have a trophy truck body on it and the wheels actually tuck up in the fenders like they should. Im not a scale guy at all but the ridiculously enormous wheel and tire packaging is kinda dumb to me. Yea you get more control in the air but if ur good enough, thats not necessary. Oh yeah and by the way, this thing on 6s with about 3 times the unsprung weight from the heavy ass wheels i run is just....my goodness its marvelous. Definitely my best all around rig. Hands down.

    I've not had an rc in years, used to have a kyoshi nitro and that big old CEN nitro monster when I was a teen (on my way to 37 now though haha) but your vids might be giving me the bug again.
    This MT8 seems interesting as I really can't afford something like an X Maxx or anything Maxx... But considering the MT8 if I know I can get spares.
    Do you know where I can get spares, or should I avoid this thing?

    I ordered this last month and it's just arrived yesterday. But the one I've got seems to have a problem with the drive. Everytime I try go forward to reverse or even from a dead stop it's struggling to go. All it will do is just stutter like it trying to go but something is stopping it til I let go of the controller and then push it again. I've check the car the best I can but can't see anything wrong and was hoping you may know anything. Many thanks

    Esses modelos chineses antes do uso é bom conferir o aperto de todos parafusos e colocar trava rosca de densidade média nos parafusos q prendem o motor e no parafuso do pinhão do motor.

    That seemed a lot slower on that speed run than on the first run without the speedometer
