Aww yeah!!! I only have 5 minutes to watch. But will definitely have to wait till I'm comfortable at home to watch the rest. Great video Jay!! You the man as always, appreciate the smell a vision😂...I DO LOVE
Congrats on being the first UA-camr with a real bashing session with the Maxx Slash! MSM babies his machines too much and puts music over the sounds of the truck. Thank you for this.
As of now I agree. I have 6 and 4s mojave. I bought the maxx slash just today and it is wicked. I haven't run the slash enough yet but I will see. I like the slash but I tend to think I will enjoy the 4s mojave more but I'll see soon. I do think the maxx slash is wicked though
Oh yeah big time the arrma mojave is another think nothing to compare with this fusion oh maxx/slahs. Same electronics for thr udr. I want to see a traxxas news rc with another powerful brand in electronics like a hobbywing or castle creations. Cause for that $$$ money $$$ $700 + taxes mmm I don't know. Just for another's $180 I I can get the udr.🤷🏻
The 6s EXB roller Mojave is my favorite RC of all time. No weak points, no real issues whatsoever. Complete beast, but I think this could be a lighter and clipless twin to compliment it. Cannot wait to get mine and throw some paddles on it for the dunes.
Man, Arrma is loving the timing, Mojave 4S is gonna sell like hotcakes now that there's an overpriced 6S the same size to make it look like pure bargain
Awesome videos brother. I am just getting back into RCs. I have 2 Sportwerks Mayhems. 1/8 buggies. I Nitro and the other I had started converting to a Li-Po when they came out but ended up putting them away. There was a co.pany that made the motor mounts for the conversion motors. He moved his shop to Arizona and I guess he didn't make it. I had changed the main frame to the Turmoil forward center of gravity. The turmoil was the name change and they moved the engine forward some for stability. It helped a lot. I need to find universal mounts for my 8th scale buggy so I can complete the conversion. I still have the digital JR controller I bought weeks before I had to put them away. Old tech now lol.
Regarding the noise… maybe someone already mentioned it. I found on mine that if you adjust the screws that hold the motor you can reduce the gear noise . Mesh is already defaulted but crazy how the tightness of the bolts can affect it . Great content
Thanks! I've seen a couple of the crazy comments on her acting like I'm an ambassador I got paid to do this video. Most of these people have no idea but it's all good I appreciate your comments your feedback and being with me for so long
@@JayTeeRCI just wanted to know where you got it, because neither of my two LHS even have them yet? Was it through Traxxas to promote it, or are they just available for sale at your LHS?
Need a side by side of the Mojave 6s and it. Looks like Mojave digs the dirt/grass better. On pavement the 4s Mojave has shown to be faster in lap times than the 6s
Why does Traxxas put false speeds on the box?! Arrma at least checks their vehicles and speeds before they release a new one! And give you the speed gear to achieve such speeds! I can make an RC and write capable of 150 mph, and in tiny letters put-With optional gears, new chassis, ESC, motor, body and tx/rx, basically change everything and you can get 150!
That thing looks awesome but something about it makes me think I should stick with my 6s mojave. I haven't seen one in person but they just seem real clunky compared to the mojave...I dknow!
also i feel like the shock springs that come on this truck are way too short. like i can adjust my shock almost all the way before i get any tension on the spring
seems cool but very disappointing that on 6s its not any faster then my stock mojave 4s with out the speed gear i got 55 and 56 mph... i alway hate traxxas claims a top speed but man you gotta do a ton of changes to get there they should just say what it does not what it could do if you switch a bunch of stuff and pray... i dont see this handling 70 mph
@@paulkovac9685or any sway bars. Traxxas pinch too many pennies for me. They can't even put in CNC machined steel gears. The only thing that screams "quality" about Traxxas is their differentials and plastic durability. Traxxas got to the top slot by being the best, and now they're just complacent, lazy and pinchpenny.
I thought it looked better on asphalt than on the rough stuff. It looked very bouncy especially on landings, maybe the damping is a little on the hard side. I know SCT's like to parachute but it didn't look like it had much air control with those belted tyres
All the hate i have seen for this short course. I love mine. I dont baby it. I work hard for what i get, so the price didn't scare me away. Live people get what you want as long as it doesnt cause issues elsewhere in your life. I have been looking for a motor cooling fan, Traxxas says they do not offer one, and the servo is a bit slow. But like i said I love it. Have had it for a few weeks and need a new body already..lol
Hello JT.. can you please check whether we can fit that back Shock extender piece on the Maxx V2 as well??? Lack of suspension travel is an issue on this RC as well as Maxx V2!
Thanks for the great video as usual JayTee! This one is definitely not my first choice. Its interesting amd Im not complaining that Traxxas is offering something new and fresh, but i would rather buy another UDR or go with a Mojave personally.
Mojave is probably going to be a better basher. I'm guessing this is designed a bit more towards performance and handling? You know we all want to see you thrash it as your skate park though haha
That car is an absolute Beast I'll put it to you this way I have an x-maxx I have an xrt I have a red cat vigilante this little car f****** surprised the hell out of me well worth the money you definitely will get a bang for the buck this car is a blast it is an absolute Beast just remember you have to have some skills to drive this car this car isn't for everyone
Unless I was racing, I'm not sure the allure to these machines like this or the Mojave. I'd rather have a Maxx, Kraton or Outcast, etc. More purpose built for jumping like this
I prefer to run a 4 s battery in this bad boy. if ya dont, be prepared to watch it go tumbling ALOT haha but its super fun and i found a weak spot on the body basically back where the tailights would be
Lookin good. It's not designed for higher jumpsuit like that, but it's ok. At least we see how it bahaves. I would drive it like I drive my Mojave when I had it : long distance jumps, but not too high 👍
Take the body off when you do your speed run for 70 I just wanna see if it can do it. I bet it will. It sounds powerful sledge has a good motor. I like that 2000 KV.
Not sure, looks pretty similar in size and performance to my Arrma Senton on 4s. But, it may handle different. Hopefully I see one in action at my local track. It does sound weird... like a bad gear mesh or something?
@@JayTeeRCmy Original Maxx sounded like that on a plastic spur. I munched that gear and went to metal. Sounded clangy but no issues. WIDEMAXX THAT THING , 🙏 please
Understand that flipping it on concrete is a heck of a lot different than flipping it off road. If I flip it on a speed run it's going to scratch and eat the body up. If I flip it off road in this area it'll cause a little dent and maybe rub on the body a little bit but that's about it. Totally different. I didn't want to mess the body up trying to do a speed run and flip it. at least on the first run. Now I may tomorrow when I do super Speed Saturday but we'll see
@@JayTeeRC lol by better I meant not as bad as in the video!!! I got a red one but haven't taken it out to bash yet.. i guess ill find out eventually..

Yeah I watched that video, seemed more like a music debute vs a new car.
Thanks so much!!
It’s slightly shorter than the Mojave. It feels well built but the Mojave is probably one of the best RC’s on the market, regardless of category.

Best Maxx slash video on yt right now
One of the best no noncense vids iv watched😊🤘 nice jumps!
Great work bud!
ty!
That definitely is a awesome durability test. Good review looking good. Takes a beating and keeps on ticking.
Man, Arrma is loving the timing, Mojave 4S is gonna sell like hotcakes now that there's an overpriced 6S the same size to make it look like pure bargain
Yes true, in Germany 850€ for what??
Traxxas are experts at selling overpriced plastic and trash electronics . At least make the a better motor mount , aluminum driveshafts , etc
Only people that like Armas are on Traxxas reviews
Only the poors worry about price
(looks over at Mojave 4S on shelf) Yeah.... imma get one anyway.
Put the body clips in that battery tray lid to secure it.

Loosen the screws on the bottom till the batteries fit . It work on my xrt and I didn't need to get new batteries 👍👍

How is this compare with the Mojave 4S? Which should one buy? this or Mojave?
6 s Mojave or 4s Mojave either one and both cheaper

4s

Cause I am buying a xmaxx and an wide maxx.
one of the best out there

yep!
What is the run time on something that powerful?
depends on Lipo using and where and how u run
Does the Mojave pull wheelies like that slash.
4s or 6s?
@@JayTeeRC 4s
Nevermind I went back and watched your 4s video on the Mojave........it pulled good wheelies.😁

I don't think it will go 70 unless you put all the metal stuff on
I think it'll actually hit those speeds but the body is gonna slow it down bc it won't stay on the ground
I see 70mph on the box but…
Am I missing something?
"optional speed gearing". 44 spur and 27 pinion....not included 🙄
