I’d be shocked if it doesn’t stick around. They’re just doing a limited first run in case $1500 is just too much to move inventory
Wish I could go to the Traxxas store for every new release 😅
You and me both 😂
No you don’t Traxxas customer service is horrible screw them idiots!
My wallet is thankful I live 3500 miles away from the Store and at least an hour away from a hobby shop.
@Constabruity lol, I like about 15 to 20 minutes away from 2 hobby shops. I'm not where near Texas but the local hobby shops take my money every weekend 😅
I'm glad you mentioned you mentioned there was no limited edition numbering. The only thing limited on this is the box. (Which I know people down the line will pay a premium for.)
Yessss!! I have a sledge and xmaxx. Need to sneak an XRT into the house.
My Dream Car! I feel you Mark! Awesome!
Dude your videos are awesome. Love watching the excitement and knowledge. Keep going man.
I saw that yesterday and I was just in awe
Traxxas needs to have the ultimate addition with the rpm parts this would be awesome
😂 I can't tell whether or not you're reviewing the vehicle or you're just going to do a walk-around while it sits at the store. However I'm just getting into the first two or three minutes of this video and I applaud that you're doing the ultimate version of this truck. Kudos sir.
Honestly, I have a few thoughts on this, all of which come to the same conclusion - it's really not worth it. I know there will be people who will disagree with me...but, I have 5 points/options that, once understand, should help convince all but the "diehards" who have to have every Traxxas release.
1) You can purchase the standard RTR, be "wise" in your upgrade decisions (as many have pointed out, Traxxas went (purposely???) 'overboard' in selecting upgrade parts), and sell off the brand-new no-longer-needed parts. In the end, you'll have an RC that's better than their 'Ultimate', and the final cost will be closer to $100-200 more than the standard RTR.
2) You can purchase a roller from an RC chop shop, be "wise" in your upgrade decisions, and end up with the same vehicle mentioned in option #1, but with a final cost that's equal to, or possibly slightly less than, the standard RTR.
3) Taking option #2 one step further, you could sell off the brand-new no-longer-needed parts, and end up with a final cost that's definitely less than the standard RTR.
4) Part of why Traxxas is probably doing this...and, as already pointed out by others...is that Traxxas probably has a large number of unsold 'upgrade' parts in their warehouse, which is probably due to the fact that most 3rd-party upgrade parts cost less than Traxxas' own upgrade parts and/or those 3rd-party parts are of higher quality (such as 7075 vs Traxxas 6061).
5) The final point has to do with something many have suspecting for several months - that Traxxas is going to soon be releasing a new version of the X-MAXX, based on the XRT chassis. This is a good way for Traxxas to 'unload' their excess of X-MAXX vehicles and/or upgrade parts. If you think about it, this, combined with point #4, makes a lot of logical sense.
Totally agree 👍
i agree man
Unsold parts is speculation because none of us have actual information about that, but your first point is indisputable. This truck is just hype.
Thank you for expressing your thoughts in a classy professional way.... seriously.... all fair points
@@MarkSantaMaria yep
For this video i would put the light kit on it. I think could look sick with that house and xrt ultimate with light kit on :). Cheers🥳
Would love to see you put that beast on the Indy RC track. Always great content!
I seriously thought about it but i got this video out super fast... didnt have the time :(
I ordered an XRT ultimate to run on a track, not to bash…. So I’m building an off road track on my back property 👍🏾👍🏾
I want those dif covers and steering bellcrank in Orange. The TRX parts on this just looks awesome.
Awesome video love the new traxxas XRT Ultimate and traxxas X Maxx Ultimate Happy holiday and stay safe ✌️
Would prefer a Tekno E truggy setup on 6s with big tyres over a Traxxas
Such a great looking and performing rc i would love to have one but I can't afford a xrt but its so amazing it is the ultimate rc car.love the videos and the build you do
Do not buy this trash car. Get the arrma.
Even the Arrmas have issues.. the new Spektrum electronics are apparently a little more prone to dying after jumps.
Regardless yes, the XRT Ultimate is yes a little over the top. They do, yes, fix a lot of weak points on the stock XRT but the weight makes it prone to other stuff breaking.
Nothing can truly be perfect, just get whatever you personally wanna get.
Happy for you!!
I’m debating between the xrt and the xrt ultimate.
What do you recommend for me? I don’t care for aesthetics. I just like performance upgrades. Is the ultimate faster than the regular xrt? I saw a video where you are better upgrading yourself and it will be faster and better for the money. Is that true? This is my first rc and I don’t care for special edition or anything like that. But if the upgrades are worth it in your opinion, let me know.
Traxxas got y'all's number with the limited edition 'yadda 'yadda lol... Their marketing team needs a raise
Hook,line, and sinker.
Breh the thumbnail is epic
YOU’ve got some beautiful homes in your neighborhood!
Nice job my friend. Great video.👍🏼🔥💯
I wish they'd upped the motor size like Arrma did on their new 8S trucks. The new EXBs are pretty awesome. I still love the XRT though. I'm guessing you've seen a few Kevin Talbot videos, my point is that the stuff that most readily breaks on X trucks, like the drive shaft bending, doesn't look like it was addressed. Still a nice looking truck.
Thing looks insane
It looks Awesome its in any Hobby you want the nice stuff your going to pay it’s not just RC it looks awesome have fun with it .
Your enthusiasm is awesome. You do a great job. Just wanted to say I live in Saginaw Michigan. The closest hobby shop is about 45 minutes away and there’s no indoor or outdoor tracks to go run a car anywhere. But I’ve been in the hobby Since 1984. This sucks. :-(
The Limited edition should have came with a special Ultimate body. Much more collectible
Love this car
That’s how I read my Traxxas emails! 😂
Awesome!
Haha... 911 emergency!! Nice opening! Laughed out loud!!
Definitely on traxxas payroll 🤦🏾♂️
only thing i recommand switch out the alu toe links back to plastic it will save your servo :)
Should have been numbered. Limited is almost nonsense when the edition size is hidden from the customer.
Best XRT 👍😃
what a beauty ❤
Cool video nice car
Was waiting for this. 😅 What took you so long bro?! 😆
Dont remind me.... Family time during Christmas, full time job, running several businesses, and youtube... it can catch up to you really quick... hahaha
I figured. Still great content as usual. You Da man💪🏾
Nice truck... mark, happy holidays 2 u and family,, blessings 4life from TDee Hobbies RC lifestyle,, 🎉🎉🎉
I got both of them and the wide max kit on the X maxx. Fully upgraded. What makes me wanna buy this other than the shelf queen because it’s probably gonna break sooner I’m at 6:48.
I love that you can have a big truck like this and it's not nitro.
did this dude just pretend he went to his local store to buy one? when in fact he was given it by traxxas?
Yep on their payroll
Prove it
What a beautiful neighborhood you have there I would love to have a house like yours but I'm too poor I got to live in a trailer at least I own it and the property
Hard to choose between the XRT or XMAXX 🤨!
I like that you added typing noises as you scroll through a web page, I know you work in IT and you know that’s not how that works! Scrolling with the arrow keys?! Monster!
That XRT ULTIMATE rocks!!! and love the house decorations!!!
Nice.
I can definitely see these NIB in a few years going for big money
Nice 👍🏼
Fun video.
xrt takes out christmas ornaments at 65 mph !!!
Cool 😎
Definitely in the un-obtanium category!
Nice 👍🏻🤩
Does the Ultimate Xmaxx have its regular esc or the Xrt esc?
I hope they upgrade those weak differential ring & pinion ring gears ⚙️⚙️😮💨 im sick & tired of replacing diff ring gears💯
How long the traxxas can go? I really want build fpv rc car using traxxas. Should I use elrs?
I want one !!!!!
It’s got belted tires too.
Well I know what's on my wish list lol! I guess it doesn't come in red, soooo I'll take the green please 😁
I get it...this is EXACTLY the way I feel about the Tekno NT 48 2.0!!!
Did yours come with the faster gearing? My xrt ultimate did not.
I went by the Traxxas store the other day, tryna sell my E-revo as we speak to get some cash to get that XRT ultimate!
Is this equivalent to arrmas exb line up??
where can i get the wheel knob for the controller
Why would people hold onto them and try to resale them if you can just buy the hop ups. There's nothing special about it. I could see if the hop ups were limited edition but they aren't. Or if they were some kind of special hop ups. I honestly don't really understand why it's limited edition to begin with. Only reason I can think of is the people at Traxxas probably figure not too many people are going to spend that kind of money on an rtr, on a regular basis to justify keeping it on the shelves. They wouldn't sell that many at that price, one of the great things about Traxxas is you can get into the hobby without spending a start up fortune. A $1500 car defeats the purpose. It goes against their market plan. It doesn't make good business sense to have something like that on the shelves for them long term I would think. I wouldn't spend that kind of money on one. If I was going to spend that kind of money I'd just go all out and build a race buggy or truggy. How is it a limited edition if everyone on UA-cam seems to have one. 🤔 There's nothing limited about it, it's a Traxxas marketing ploy.
Ima get both of them. Ima spent $4,000.00 cash on the Xmaxx ultimate and XRT ultimate all green and black
I bought a slash ultimate 4x4 from my buddy. It’s only about a month old. He used it a couple of times and decided to get the xrt ultimate limited edition. I took it out for the first time today and it’s slow. Only goes like 30mph. On the app I have it set at 100%. When he got we took it out and it was screaming, like 60 mph. Any ideas why it’s so slow. I feel like it’s a setting of some sort. Thanks
To each their own.
But if you love the hobby and really love to "work" on your own stuff.
Integy RC has a lot of very nice upgrades for the XRT as well as M2C racing for some of the chassis frame parts that Integy doesn't have. I think I figured around $700 plus the cost of the truck.
This ultimate XRT is $1499??
And it doesn't have a 1/3 of the parts, what that $700 will get you to do the upgrades yourself.
Happy Hobbying, folks 😎👌
Thank you for this post!🙏🏾 My sentiments exactly!
Also, if one says its 1k of upgrades (which many are cosmetic and rven not performance upgrades, some r even downgrades, they just look good is all), forget to mention that those upgrades individiually is Already overpriced traxxas upgrades since aftermarket ones are cheaper
Also the stock parts are missing if one preferred them so... not worth imo
I'd love to win this somewhere, someday
Hey XRT ultimate is got harden steal gears now
Arrma puts out their Kraton with the additional better parts at the original price. Traxxas adds their parts and 30% additional price tag. 🤦
Screw Traxxas
Traxxas upgrades are just Pepsi can shiny upgrades at best. A few tubers are already stating that parts are failing. I'll buy a regular xmaxx and buy the upgrades that are tried and true. I'm looking to buy the Aarmma big rock in white. Hopefully, they will release it soon.
Arrma makes a better truck. The end.
Traxxes lost thir way arrma team associte losi deffentley ,heck even hpi.
I believe the hopped up one doesn't come with electronics whereas the regular one does.
Bro can you do a weight difference between regular xmaxx / xrt vs ultimate versions With and without the tires so people can stop saying its excessive unwanted weight lol cause its really not
What took you so long? Was expecting this vid yesterday.
i know i know, but to my defense... were there any other XRT releases yesterday besides traxxas?
Well if they didnt have one in stock which I would of been surprised you could of ask to go back and make one up 😂
Where you at in Texas? Did you go to the store in McKinney?
It's too expensive for my blood. I want an XMaxx but I'll just get the "regular" version in Solar Flare.
Almost looks like a kraton
the parts aren't anything you can't get separately and upgrade yourself. So it won't be a big deal.
No offense to any diehard Traxxas fans but these new Ultimate X-Maxx and XRT's have too much aluminum parts and they still have the same unreliable VXL-8s these trucks should have come with a rebranded or genuine Hobbywing Max 6 or MMX 8s Equivalent ESC for the price. I was once a Traxxas fanboy myself and that was all i bought until i bought my first Arrma which was an Outcast 8s EXB and Rlaarlo which was an AK-917 carbon which in my opinion are better for the money that they're competition. Although i love my current Traxxas vehicles i own but i think these "Ultimate" X-Trucks have wasted potential and are overpriced compared to either the Non "Ultimate" version or the new Arrma Kraton and Outcast 8s RTR EXB's. Sorry for the long tangent.
I got the new Kreaton 6s with all the new hope ups and still the same price
My XRT is only 4 months old, I'm getting the xmaxx but not this one. I'll get the tires
It's an easy to get an Xmaxx or XRT with pretty much all the upgrades you'd eventually get anyway!
But I don't see them becoming collector's editions selling for more money.
You already see fully hopped up Xmaxxes for sale with sellers trying to get their money's worth... but they don't.
How do I get the Rc boxes
This is my style
They are both killer!! But you could build one like you said… for 2k…
Hello
How much does 1 piece of belted tire weigh?
Greate from Austria ✌️
Hey that’s my car in the background! , I all ways see you at traxxas store 😭
Intro 😂😂😂😂
😂LMAO, great start to this video! Mark you gotta let Even know that’s exactly why we have kids.. Hope you bash that TRX for us to see if all that aluminum isn’t going to make it prone to have weak points?
heck yea! hahaha!
OMG i want one. Wish my hobbie shop was open to call.
ARRMA TRUCKS SSUUUUUUUCCCCKKKKKSSSSSS.
thats a good way of try to get people buy your overprices upgrade parts lol
What is the price Brother?🔥
i wish i had that toy :(
1500 is ridiculous but you don’t know the price because
It’s free yes, yes, the 6700 hundred batter is THE battery to run because it’s expensive has a proprietary plug and is of course the number one reason made by traxxas and you get it for FREE. everyone just get a arrma 8s exb v2 much more value for money
Is my time, platform, craft, dedication, and will to put myself out there for people to crap on not worth anything?
So in this video was you running 6s or 8s? I am guessing 6s???@@MarkSantaMaria
@@MarkSantaMaria 🎯
Do you work for Traxxas?
They didn’t upgrade the esc or motor that’s what needs the upgrade. Worthless upgrades for 500 bucks.
Look freakin' good. But XRT is way to big for the place I can run RC's. I just wished Traxxas would make like a Revo 3.0 Ultimate or a sledge ultimate with plastics chassis.
That's awesome but at rue same time it has become more expensive
