Hey Kev, try Bezgar I have owned who for 2 years and it’s only broken 1 time
I might enter agian
That Polaris rzr will run on 4s. Makes it almost to fast😂
Kev needs a Kraken Vesla gas !!!
Kev do me a solid and check your wheels for cracking. It has been a noticeable flaw. Mine cracked bad, and your buddy Tomley (Phil) noticed cracking in his as well.
Kev, if you see this, anytime i see your videos, they put a HUGE smile on my face!! Thank you for my entertainment source!
glad you like the vids dude, all about the smiles!!
@@KevinTalbotTVHello kev love from Mongolia ❤️
@@KevinTalbotTV Hey Kev, is it possible to put on a different motor such as the 2435 brushless motor on a esc that was meant for a surpass hobby waterproof 2430 7200KV Brushless Motor?
I couldn't hear the "TRAXXAS tough baby" when the ESC fried after less than a pack 🤔😅
My esc caught on fire and I just waited 20 mins and it worked fine again 🤣
@@JustToFast they should add "fireproof" next to "waterproof" 😜
@@eljiipHad my Maxx v2 about a year I think. Just had the stock esc do the red lights of death yesterday. Had a Maxx v1 for about 2 years and no issues with the ESC. Total I’ve had 5 VXL 4s and 8s escs. Just
Stuff happens. No rtr brands are 100% immune to failure.
@@truerc i know that, but it seems that kev is more comprehensive of that when it's a traxxas rig than when it's arrma... 🙄
This is like the best reviews ever. He tested the speed, durability, electronics, drove it in sand, mud, grass, dirt, water, and a skatepark
Some people is team traxxas NO MATTER WHAT!! I guess you messed the part where the car just died! There would be no video if he didn’t have another.
@@heathabercrombie1039 i think it died from luck probably
2:37 KEV!!!! That Charger output does work, but you left the switch on high output. Switch it back and both ports will work again.
Dang good eye. I have this charger and didn't notice he had high output on.
@@ryandonoghue1703Judging by him putting a like in my comment, I’d guess he took my advice. Savvy?
I think it would like 💕 to
I am happy to see this on the channel. That faulty esc is not good though, traxxas needs to fix that.
Yeah, had that happen twice on my Erevo, you have to send it back with the motor to get it sorted, too much down time, you get it back it lasts three runs then it goes again. Time to fit another esc, sorted.😊😊😊
Only $700 for the car so who's gong to care about a faulty speed controller 😮
I've had cheap esc's that will outlast them hands down for reliability. They should be better since they are branded by Traxxas. Poor show Traxxas.
@@allanritchie1539 I agree, at this point I don't even run the Traxxas esc, I pull it out and run a hobbywing. Sell the Traxxas stuff as new take offs
@@johnk8510 at that point why buy it. That’s the heart of Rc car. For 700 I would think 5 mins of fun should go back to the store for a refund and NEVER BUY traxxas again. That’s me tho.
Oh its christmas every day......your like a kid loving your new playgrounds in IsleofMan love it!! Never get old.
yesss the isle of man vids are so cool
I'm impressed, didn't see the body fly off one time. Finally Traxxas got it right on the mount system
Perfectly timed drop for much needed midweek lunchtime entertainment 😊
Can’t wait for the XRT-U video! I just got one last week and I’m loving it!
I drove the absolute crap out of a 2WD slash when I was a kid years ago. Most dependable rc car I ever had.
Brilliant video kev lookin forward to getting my nitro car out now your vids are brilliant 👍🏻
11:01 i love how it sounds like actual car tire scrapes
feels like EVERYTHING you show on your channel is what NOT to do with your RC car🤪
😃
yepp hahaha. nobody should drive as hard as kev with their rc’s unless you don’t care about it
I think of it as cheap R&D...He breaks expensive stuff so I don't have to and entertaining in the process.
Amazing! Anything that can handle your torture test is a serious winner!
Yeah the first one lasted so long
Kevin I just learned something new with the Losi Promoto MX. If you tilt the receiver forward a little bit on the mount just twist it so the left top corner is facing forward. basically leaning at a forward angle the throttle will not cut when hitting the big jumps at the skate park. You lean it forward enough just to trick it into thinking it's still not past its wheelie tipping point. It works like a charm. We learned this while we were racing them and jumping them at the amain hobby race track. You put it on offroad mode it works best.
I always come home from school and hope you posted a video it just makes me look forward to the day
3:26 props for the intro on the main land and the testing on the Isle of Mann(child)
I JUST LUV BROS CONTENT
Sameeeeeee
That dirt trail before the skate park was the perfect terrain! But that skate bowl looked pretty fun too.
Pro tip: Put a piece of dense foam in your Arrma Mojave body mounts and zip tie it on and you should save yourself a bunch of headache 👍🏼
Yep my brother took the foam bumper off of one of his TT02 shelf queens and cut it up and zip ties it under the body mounts and never broke since.
The good old vids thanks kev
Entertaining as always Kev!
Hello Jake!!
Wow that’s impressive!! Roads for speed runs are insane!!!!
3:06 my buddy failed his driving test but since you have to carry on anyway, when the examiner asked him what that sign meant he said: dunno? the moon is wearing his seatbelt? 😆🤣
Can watch your videos forever.
Throws rc off the side of the mountain:
Oh no what happened!?!?!?
😂😂😂😂
Kev I went to redvin the over day and I saw Jason 😮🎉🎉🎉
Who?
Love the vid Kev ❤❤❤❤
They built the Max Slash because the Arma Mojave 4s and 6S is on the pedestal, at least Trax tried. Go fast Green aye aye, Thanks for the video Mr. Kevin.
Hey kev do you think you can test out the new proboat shredy jet boat very scale
Been a supporter for a good few years now Kev, great to see how far you have come highly deserved 💪
Oh yeah bro . Sweet . I spray them down and use a powerful blower , but not too powerful . I was using the air compressor which is more surgical blowing , lol . I was doing yard work one day and had a craftsman blower with the big battery and used it after spraying some silicone oil and it dries so nice and …dry . Seems like it keeps it fresh looking . The wheel to center area and the fin on the Kraton 1/8 even looks new with scratches . Everyone knows this already probably .
Man you've really uped the game with the terrain, drone footage etc, love it. Really showed the slashes cababilty on the beach, that thing looks a beast.
These kids are from his new home in the isle of Mann, that's why the footage is new. Different locations. Also why he's not driving the old Land Rover, it and the Lambo and Monster truck are still back at old place
Loving the drone shots
100 likes and i will buy a traxxes x maxx
If I get 400 likes I will buy traxxes slash also
Peer pressure peer pressure peer pressure hehe
First learn how to type the right words / make / model
Cringyyyy 😊 are u getting a discount or something if u do get 100 likes??
@@oiuhev no way it's just a bot or someone looking for attention
Do it
Did you find out why the first Slash died?
The red light of death really just means it needs calibration
Another great video Kev you are the definition of RC hobbies thank you
love to see the drone too!
These vids make me want to get into the hobby!
Lights of death, I had this issue with my sledge three runs. Traxxas tough baby😂
Your charger is switched to “high output” which is only one side. Hit the black switch in the middle and you’ll be good to go brother! Btw I freaking love your videos brother, I appreciate your skills and business advice is on point! Keep doing what you’re doing bud!!
Hey Kevin. Watch the traxxas video, and within the first 20 seconds, you will see what's missing in the front suspension. (Lower shock mounts and springs for xmaxx)
LOVE IT! I have been waiting so long for you to put one through its paces! Ive had mine since day one and LOVE it. I just cant kill it. Shame about the first ones ESC. Wonder what happened?
Been waiting for you to bash this one!!! what a tough little truck!! SLS SERIES shock caps coming soon!! Thanks for putting it to the test for the world!!
Nice Video keV 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Dead esc on day one is wild no matter the price.
i like it but the esc is concerning 😟 love the dukes of hazard 2 wheel driving, that udr though is gorgeous 😀👍👍👍👍
You made me feel wayyy better about getting this car everyone else was complaining and calling it hot trash
if they haven't actually used one their opinion has no value :)
The value is what the majority of the RC Hobby enthusiast say and they say it sucks. The first one showed it’s true colors and let’s face it. They’re not selling that good in the hobby stores. I got several stores around me and I know the salesman.
I got mine and don’t regret it one bit! So fun to bash with it
@@heathabercrombie1039 as long as the person buying it is happy that’s all that matters. Love mine and don’t care what random people who I don’t even know think
@KevinTalbotTV that's what I always say too Kevin. Why would I give a flying fk what some random dude thinks? Lol better things to worry about.
Kevin like super hero of car😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Dude, that thing is crazy tough. Awesome video.
Thanks Kev! You made my day
Always enjoy your videos. What batteries do you use that last the longest for bashing?
Amazing new scenery and awesome truck 👍
I love it Kev you are r.a.g (ruff as guts ) with the RC 's but as always a epic video 😊
I think this is the only major UA-camr that replies to his subscribers and interacts with his community very well done I must say and so many others do not why I do not support their channels or even bother watching others🎉
Hey man, I try to read most comments and respond to some, the more viewers you get though the harder it becomes.
Thank you Kevin love your content bro keep it coming YES MATE!!!!!
love how you test these cars to destruction.. or try to.... 😊 . made me laugh out loud.. excellent video Kev seems like your settling in well on IOM. How the flying going?
I love the wind when you're RC cars. I'll watch your movies watching you. Tear up the full. Will of cars all the time. I spend most of my time watching your video. You have awesome videos. I love you to watch you. Tear them🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉😂 cars up.
Oh it's Christmas everyday always makes me laugh when getting new RC cars in a new box is always a Christmas present
I love watching kevs vids
the left side of the charger doesnt work when it is put into high output mode! put it back in normal mode and it will work
I think the Maxxis slash is awesome and the durability test (Talbot test) is proof enough for me to say buy one keep up the awesome work kev
Really broke 2 mins. Watch this video again. That was 1400$ as 2 cars. Traxxas should be ashamed.
@@heathabercrombie1039 What percentage of maxx slash ESC's have been defective compared to any other RC truck?
thanks kev
w aussie
This is so cool! I like this.
Man I love your videos. You are the reason why I have a slash.
cor kev you must be over the moon. isle of man looks amazing with lots of awesome rc location. Living the dream. also you camera in 4k makes amazing videos please keep them coming.
I really enjoy your videos Kev!! Of course we’re all not gonna agree with everything. I disagree with the video headline that this is the best RC of the year. Maybe most durable. But for $700 you get a plastic geared servo, short shocks that aren’t the right size and overpriced wheels that have no grip. It doesn’t drive very well as far as an SCT should. Still thanks for the entertainment factor! You really do know how to test these trucks for their breaking point! Even if it breaks in 5 minutes!
Agreed. Overpriced.
I was interested in this car!! But after seeing the first one die so quick! It's too much for what you get!
@@bobbarker4601 The transmitters look cheap and nasty too. As does most of the other electrics.
Please show me a factory 6S SCT that will handle this sort of abuse.
Thanks
@@rustler08 a brick is pretty durable too but it’s not gonna drive very good now is it?! It’s not a basher! It’s a drivers kind of truck that doesn’t handle the way it should compared to cheaper trucks with quality parts.
Extremely impressive! I just feel like Traxxas needs to work on their prices a bit. Great video Kev!!
Just got one today because of this video. I’ll be keepin an eye out for those upgrade videos.
I have a green one too and it has taken a beating, it took hitting a Subaru at 50+ to break the chassis
Поражён вашей возможностью покупать такие тачки!😮 Одну за другой! И еще одну и ещё и ещё... Невообразимо!
Класные ролики, чувак!))👍 Жаль у нас в России нет таких крутых парней!(
Finally, I have been waiting on u for so long....I wanna see u upgrade it
Another awesome video loving your channel Kev you're an inspiration new youtubers an their channel myself included 😁
HOWZIT Kevin, my name is Blake Samson from GMBN (Global Mountain Bike Network) youtube channel. Wondering if you wanted to go head to head a MTB vs RC jump off with me. Thanks for your time dude. love your channel. Blake
Hey man, maybe in the future, I have something similar planned with Sam already so gotta get that done 1st
Ohhh shit
what differential would you recommend for a DIY 6WD RC, basically something like this car, but 6 wheeled, I need to know what kind of diffs to get before I can start planning out the frame and motor set up
ADHD RC channel is what it should be. You are a maniac and I love watching your weekly destruction derby. Yes please more!
I love the green I have a green and black arrma granite and senton
The only thing I do on my Mojave body mounts is shove some ridged packing foam works pretty good 👍
Kev what tires to you recommend for the arrma big rock 3s?
Looks like they nailed the body fastening system!
Awsome!! have the blue one thanks for the great video!!
Nice truck, great vid 🔥
I’m definitely convinced I need one now
Kev thank jou for awsom vids❤❤
looks like you cut through the Glen Wyllin campsite at Kirk Michael 👌
What an amazing location & the truck looks a blast! As long as the ESC holds up...... I'm assuming Traxxas will replace the dead one?
4. Dont give it to Max. 😆
The Maxx needs a Max test 😂
@@volvo09I may have to order one
@@Maddmax206 i think it can hold up to you for a while 🤣
a legend onec said:
'no one outside means no speed limit!'
Love the video kev keep it up with these amazing video thanks
Btw Kevin could u get a losi muggy or the losi MTXL.
Hey Kev! i love the videos and your attitude towards life! I want to quit working a 9-5 so I will be buying your Ebay course very soon! Im very excited for it
Kev the blue max slash is not dead its just overheated i have it by my slash too
Love your honest reviews Kevin..not a big fan of Traxxas, this happened to me out of the box with a Rustler years ago; it took sending it back twice/4 months total before it would work at all.
Hi Kevin! When you gonna test traxxas xrt ultimate? 😊
YES MATE!!!! You and Phill and RcMann are the reason I got into rc’s and I love it thank you
I have been rockin this car for 3 weeks now and it is great the only thing is that it seems to like to roll other than that i love it no idea what happened to the first esc never seen that before
I bought an xmaxx in January and the motor failed in under two weeks, hadn't been rough with it either, sucks that the esc died on your new car so quickly, the electronics shouldn't be this bad!
has money to buy a maxx slash, esc dies so let's just buy a new car in place of just a new esc got me really laughing, thx kev!
I very much doubt he pays for them. Will be all sent to him for promo.
Nice video kev boom!!!!!!!
What esc should I put in my maxx slash? Max8 or max6?
What happened to the blue 1? Did you send it back did you contact traxxas?
