About the X-Maxx 8S
Body, Wheelie bar, Wheels & Tires
The Traxxas X-Maxx 1/6 8S Monster Truck with belted tires is an absolute beast of an RC vehicle, designed to conquer the most extreme terrain with its mammoth size and unrelenting power. Featuring a clipless body mounting system, the X-Maxx allows for easy removal and installation of the reinforced body, which is further enhanced with a protective cage to minimize flex and external skids for strategic protection during intense bashing sessions. The integrated nerf bars provide additional side impact resistance, ensuring durability and longevity even in the most demanding conditions. Paired with the specifically formulated 8s rubber compound and large, dual-diameter wheels, the belted Sledgehammer tires offer exceptional grip and durability for high-speed runs and aggressive off-road maneuvers.
Chassis, Suspension & Drivetrain
Built on a robust chassis with a full-metal driveline, the X-Maxx boasts exceptional strength and durability to withstand the rigors of extreme bashing. The suspension system is engineered to optimize suspension travel and steering angles, with all critical suspension points featuring double shear strength for added reliability. The GTX shocks with machined aluminum threaded bodies and extra-large bore capacity ensure smooth and consistent damping over rough terrain, while the fully sealed bearings used in exposed locations provide long-lasting performance with minimal maintenance requirements. The drivetrain features all-metal gears and CVDs, along with Traxxas' Torque-Biasing Center Drive unit for maximum wheels-up punch and unrelenting acceleration.
Electronics
Equipped with the Velineon VXL-8s Brushless Power System, the X-Maxx delivers jaw-dropping acceleration and speeds of over 50mph, thanks to its powerful Velineon 1200XL Brushless Motor and VXL-8s Waterproof Electronic Speed Control. The built-in cooling fan and machined heat sinks ensure efficient heat dissipation during high-speed runs, while the real-time telemetry via Traxxas Link provides valuable performance data to optimize the driving experience. The Traxxas Stability Management (TSM) helps prevent spinouts and loss of control by adjusting from off to 100% assistance from the transmitter, offering unparalleled stability and control for drivers of all skill levels. Additionally, the TQi 2.4 GHz High Output Radio System with Traxxas Link-enabled allows for easy customization and adjustment of steering and throttle parameters, ensuring a personalized driving experience tailored to individual preferences.

Damn, that vigilante looks freaking awesome bro!!
Thanks
Another awesome comparison run, Redcat Vigilante new colors, looks great.
@sparetimerc Thanks. I need to work on the X-Maxx. I'm thinking about the Maxx 5 ESC and the stock motor.
Thanks for watching.
Bro! Imma arrma fanboy 12s kraton all day! But that paint and wheel combo on vigilante . Just sold me!
Bro you have those trucks doing it up out there and that fresh body looks good 👍🏾
I need to work on the X-Maxx next.
have you made any changes to the rack and pinion gears? Sound like it maybe a broken tooth on the gearing.. dope rune vid. that black and white combo look good. I'm still debating on what color I want to paint mine. the blue is nice, may go silver or hulk green but we will see.
The Vigilante has 20 tooth pin and factor spur and 500k in the center. The X-Maxx is all factor so far. Light kit coming soon, lol. Thanks for watching.
Bro you got some good rcs . You just need some better bash spots for em . Thanks fpr the contrnt
Tell me about it. I'm looking for some .I'm getting bored with the spots I have . Thanks for watching.
@@rcbeast101 I’m in Easton pa . I got a few spots over here . I got a few bash buddies
Anyone who has them both know the Vigilante is a better jumping, landing, and handling truck. I can't wait to get a big can motor in mine once i get my Vitavon motor mount. Max 5 760ish kv Hobbywing combo and not only will it make my Xmaxx obsolete it might give my big Arrma trucks worry.
It's really that good. Redcat killed it. I really hope they make a 5th scale buggy similar to a giant Typhon or an electric 5b.
Nice i got them on my xmaxx there awesome way better then stock junk xmaxx tires foams go bad on first run they are well made and the offset makes the xmaxx a little wider i like them
Thanks.
Are the Vigilante's wheels a direct fit on the Xmaxx?
Yes, it's a direct fit . 👌
@@rcbeast101 👍🏻
Maybe a wheel bearing
It was the rear diff.
