Do you guys ship to Canada. I am waiting for the Black XRT to get released here. I got my son the bigfoot and want something to drive when I take him out and this car caught my eye
Avery how close are you to releasing your bellcrank? I saw a video earlier of someone testing one. Do you plan to keep it as nylon and 7075 or offer an all aluminum version also?
Pushing is traxxas stability (tsm) so it doesnt rolls over my guy say it how it is, wing mount it is what it is traxxas made it like that idk, it serves its purpose make the weak link the cheapest possible i think its ok its great by design, but then again the k8s doesnt break, just saying, bout the servo i one hundred percent agree with you, idk why traxxas pulls the apple designing queues here. It is definitely a nice truggy i admit 🔥
Picked up a Protek 1KTBL Servo during Amain’s sale late last year. If I had to choose only one upgrade to my Xmaxx for the life of the truck, it would be the servo.
hi Mark, do like me; i keep it in front of the TV in the living room using the waste bin as a pedestal: on the sides there are slits where we insert the used ear sticks👍💪😁
Traxxas employees are like is he really out front of our store talking smack about the XRT? ahahahaha. Just my opinion but the XRT is a turd. Lots of love for Traxxas but the XRT seems like a failure to me. Anyways love the videos and the honest opinion as always.
Where is this Traxxas store located?? Also the XRT is a beast and pretty durable from some of the crashes I had. You aren’t lying about the size and trying to store it. It takes up my entire trunk in my SUV. Lol
Bought my xrt on launch day. Have a hw 5690 combo in it now. Still on the original wing mount. Hell, the only thing I’ve broken is pinion gear and servo
You should check out the new servo made for the xmaxx xrt, kevin talbot has one on his channel. Apparently its better\more oowerful\faster than the perfect pass servo
Garage life wing bracket , for the win ! Check it out , great stuff thanx ! I took my XRT and tore it apart for a project in the snow covered winter here , just for fun I put a hobbywing set up in it ,found a motor that would fit with M2C mount ,haven't even run it yet , great to see you running it , I can't wait for the big thaw here , thanks again !
I think by "pushes" you mean understeer. The xrt understeer is way to excessive. Try stiffer rear shocks, more toe out and negative camber. Would be interesting to see a comparison of before and after setup changes.
re the Wing Mount Mark, there are some great 3D printed Wing Mounts out there now, i recently brought one over here in the UK which has some flex in it, Definatly a worthy upgrade.
Love my XRT so much I bought myself a 2nd one. I've sent mine pretty good and never broke the bellcrank but I broke it when I tapped a pole on the bumper lol. Hopefully m2c is out soon with theirs else I'm going to end up just getting the vitavon bell crank. Some of your reasons are a little comical though bro and you were definitely reaching haha. You live in a big ass house and complaining about space??!? lol! I live in a 2bed room apartment and we have 3 XRT 🤣🤣
I think other UA-camrs agree with you on some of the XRT issues. I think the wing brace will continue to break until there is another design. I watched one video where the host tested a 3D printed version and it cracked. This truck is basically a 5th scale truck and needs a 5th scale servo. For the price it should have a 5th scale servo in my opinion. The videos I watched were very impressive. The truck jumps great and lands beautifully.
Agree on the servo I shouldn't have to spend another almost 200 bucks on a protek 1k traxxas makes shit electronics but the cars are stout my xmax haven't had anything break except the shitty 2085x servo just died full speed lost steering.
Mark ,,, you did it . Remember I mentioned when your like a 7 year old ( attention span ) . When you look at the traxxxas store ,, your like ooooo, look at that , ooooo look at that 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🪙it makes me laugh every time .. good stuff brother 🤙🤙🤙🐈🐈
My wheel broke at the hex as well. Seems like a weak point Traxxas should fix for their customers. It’s happening for lots of people just like the wing mount.
I don’t like how fast it eats tires up!! I’ve had my XRT since the day it hit the stores and I’ve already went through 1 set of factory X Maxx wheels/tires and I’m on my 2nd set of factory XRT tires now
Dope vid. This is off topic but I wrote traxxas requesting different bodies for the 4-tec 3.0 Supra. Since it’s a lil longer that the vette and the gt it’s kinda hard to find other bodies for it. Your name carries way more weight than mine in the traxxas world… since you own one are you interested in helping me out by requesting different bodies?
I can't imagine being able to walk into an RC shop like that and just get the parts I need to fix one of my cars. Anybody would think I lived in the Congo!
I know the feeling. Granted I do have a warehouse that sells online mostly with extremely limited store front. Traxxas is only available to me online and besides the TRX4M I don't want to order something I haven't seen in person.
Bought the metal gear upgrade and servo saver upgrade and have been reasonably happy with the steering. Quicker, much more responsive and more steering torque at the tire. I upgraded that the second time out with it and it makes a big difference. I think people under estimate this mod because its still technically the same "slow" servo. But the saver is the hero here!
I have the 'XRT Roll Bar Sign' in black/Red lettering from GarageLiferc 💪. I worked with them on the make of it 👀and its Phat Azz, Yo Chief it came out great it's a #1 stunner😱 Also have the G-liferc's body wing mount too!
The XRT is definitely an impressive rig and I applaud Traxxas for releasing another monster rig! But you're right a rig of that size has its weak spots, and is a pain to store and work on if you're limited on room. Trust me I feel that one every time I work on mine.😅
Hey I would really like to build my own roller badger that absolutely rips and is fast and durable but I need help. I only built fpv drones and not sure how the esc and motor and remote bind or sync. Would you mind helping me out something together as a list and how to instructions plz?
I didn't hear anything about the Xrt before release and bought an Xmaxx 2 weeks before. I love the Xmaxx but probably would have gone with the Xrt if I knew it was coming. Xmaxx is my first Traxxas since the slash 11 years ago and Traxxas has came a long way
Like I said every time you go in that store I can’t even imagine having a store in ny like that and the rear wing mount I bought an upgrade on there bunch out there and thanks
Mark m2c has a steering bell crank made of 7075 for the Xrt which I think will help with the steering I see alot of BASHERS breaking this from pushing it to hard an not being strong enough they’re still testing it as far as I know but might be worth checking out an I’ve been seeing that wing mount break just landing big jumps I’d say poor design
You are not allowed to complain about anything.....You are in a t-shirt ,outside.And u just got back from a cool race and about to travel somewhere to another big race....I'm up here in N.E. Pa freezing my ass off and the only track around just got totally ruined by being cut in half and made smaller .Enjoy the sun..
Sorry bro but that steering under rotation is your driving, before i has a more responsive ESC I could still hit a corner and hit the brake in such a way i could slide the vehicle round and accelerate out way quicker then you were tuning those corners, if the track has too much grip then ill just say you dont know how to set up your suspension either, 😏 Honesty I dont know how much of my knowledge comes from my carrier as a mototrsports engineer but it all seems really obvious to me, I still watch and enjoy your videos tho dont I dont take this as hate I got love just a competitive nature i spose, stay safe and keep having fun bro... 👍👌👍
Have you ever had the Typhon TLR Tuned RC car? I have Traxxas vehicles but that Tuned TLR is 💯 AMAZING! OMG it is fast and just solid all around top of the line parts on that car. You should try it and do a video on it.
Weird to see they have a scale 1/1th CEN racing F-250 on display….😂
I was gonna say that too 😂
@@Rek_Rc looked over their site and it appears they use Mabuchi motors
@@dstjamesrc6395 oh ok. Thanks for the info. I appreciate that.
The black one is so sick looking. I'm gonna have to get one dangit. Lol
I.m working on a basher
Nope. Wrong.
Not to worry! we are working on solutions for a few of those problems. currently in testing! We love the XRT !!! Thanks for all you do
You guys build perfection....👍👍
Do you guys ship to Canada. I am waiting for the Black XRT to get released here. I got my son the bigfoot and want something to drive when I take him out and this car caught my eye
@@Miko_of_the_Norththey do! I am in Alberta I’ve ordered a few times from them now the shipping is reasonable
Avery how close are you to releasing your bellcrank? I saw a video earlier of someone testing one. Do you plan to keep it as nylon and 7075 or offer an all aluminum version also?
Hi do you have details for the UK distributor
Check out Rc Guy Garage he has a flexible wing Mount for the XRT
Why would you re-buy a weak part known for its easy breakage? Rewarding traxxas for bad design.
LOL shouldn't be affecting you to that level
@@Hajile97😆 right
I'm sure someone makes aftermarket wing mount that's better. But then maybe he won't get endorsments
To what level? I'm not understanding you comment... @@Hajile97
traxxas needs one major outlet in every state lol
Yes
Pushing is traxxas stability (tsm) so it doesnt rolls over my guy say it how it is, wing mount it is what it is traxxas made it like that idk, it serves its purpose make the weak link the cheapest possible i think its ok its great by design, but then again the k8s doesnt break, just saying, bout the servo i one hundred percent agree with you, idk why traxxas pulls the apple designing queues here.

I wonder why after all this time Traxxas keeps pushing out sh!ty servos for their RC’s?
Xmaxx is king 🤴
I'd like to see the x-maxx version of the raminator! The G-maxx for giant!!
Picked up a Protek 1KTBL Servo during Amain’s sale late last year. If I had to choose only one upgrade to my Xmaxx for the life of the truck, it would be the servo.
Stunned by that store. There isn’t even a genuine traxxas dealer of any size within 50 miles of me here in NJ.
I work 5 min from there, it’s the world headquarters
there isn't an normal rc dealer in like 50 miles from where i live...
Grab a garagelife wing mount and be done with it 👌
So you’re bitching about the size of a big car when you bought a BIG CAR and how it doesn’t steer when you’re on the throttle. Interesting 🤔
I have the Xmaxx an I’m glad they hav break points.
That has to be nice, whenever you need a part, you just take a short drive down to Traxxas store and get it for your truck 🛻. 🤪
Love that chicken from Popeyes.

I have bought a 3D printed wing mount off of eBay it's a different shape like a number 8 and it's made of a rubbery flexible plastic not broke it yet
Bought my xrt on launch day. Have a hw 5690 combo in it now. Still on the original wing mount. Hell, the only thing I’ve broken is pinion gear and servo
Reason
1. Lame
2. Lame
3. Lame
4. Valid
5. Not really sure.
Hey atleast the popeye’s food is great. LOL.
There are metal reinforcement rings for the hex connection on the wheels. Have them installed on my X-Maxx.
You should check out the new servo made for the xmaxx xrt, kevin talbot has one on his channel. Apparently its better\more oowerful\faster than the perfect pass servo
Forget all the BS on spoiler mounts. They all suck, except RC Guy Garage spoiler mount. It’s even green!
Has anyone had issues with stripping diff gears? I have shimmed mine and top them off with oil since they were dry when I got my truck.
Garage life wing bracket , for the win ! Check it out , great stuff thanx ! I took my XRT and tore it apart for a project in the snow covered winter here , just for fun I put a hobbywing set up in it ,found a motor that would fit with M2C mount ,haven't even run it yet , great to see you running it , I can't wait for the big thaw here , thanks again !
I think by "pushes" you mean understeer. The xrt understeer is way to excessive. Try stiffer rear shocks, more toe out and negative camber. Would be interesting to see a comparison of before and after setup changes.
Do you own a xrt and have you tried any of the suggestions you made in your comment
That Black special edition XRT though. 😍
I think if you were to do a couple upgrades you can get rid of a lot of those problems
It's called under steer being a pro racer you can usually dial this out?
re the Wing Mount Mark, there are some great 3D printed Wing Mounts out there now, i recently brought one over here in the UK which has some flex in it, Definatly a worthy upgrade.
Truck skipped leg day. 😆
When’s the next Tamiya video?
Why would you waste your money on the wing mount when you know it's a huge weakness, and when there are fixes from 3rd party?
click bait title...got me. i would have been more mad if that lifted truck was yours. idk why
TPU wing mount. Wing mount problems be gone if you have a 3d printer. I could drop one in the mail if you'd like to try one and cant print one.
It didn't take you to dislike this truck? 11 mo it was a new truck and 8mo you posted this
Love my XRT so much I bought myself a 2nd one. I've sent mine pretty good and never broke the bellcrank but I broke it when I tapped a pole on the bumper lol. Hopefully m2c is out soon with theirs else I'm going to end up just getting the vitavon bell crank. Some of your reasons are a little comical though bro and you were definitely reaching haha. You live in a big ass house and complaining about space??!? lol! I live in a 2bed room apartment and we have 3 XRT 🤣🤣
Hey Mark, if you could only have either an xmaxx or xrt which do you think you'd pick?
Just asked him...he said XRT!
I think you broke the wheels when you crashed into the bridge walls
I think other UA-camrs agree with you on some of the XRT issues. I think the wing brace will continue to break until there is another design.

I believe there are 3d printed TPU wing mounts that are almost indestructible.
if that wing mount doesn't break something else will. probably good that it does break. cheap and easy to fix.
All cleaned up looking ready to go with the stylish hair cut my friend have fun in California
A Traxxas store?? That would be a dangerous place to have so close. LMAO
You need to get with garage life rc for the 3d wing mount.
Mark all you need is a garage life rc wing mount. They hold up to all the abuse and are under $20 shipped.
Why do you hype up about cars and talk good then come back talking bad ?
Mark ,,, you did it . Remember I mentioned when your like a 7 year old ( attention span ) . When you look at the traxxxas store ,, your like ooooo, look at that , ooooo look at that 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🪙it makes me laugh every time .. good stuff brother 🤙🤙🤙🐈🐈
Rc guy garage had a prototype wing mount he created that might be more resistant to damage
What's the easiest rtr nitro to use/ work on
My wheel broke at the hex as well. Seems like a weak point Traxxas should fix for their customers. It’s happening for lots of people just like the wing mount.

It can't be as bad as Australia.
Traxxas in America won't sell me anything. Australian suppliers don't have enough parts and prices are high. I'm ordering a sledge in a few weeks.
Good evening brother really nice cars cool channel enjoy the weekend
They make a heavy duty servo spring TRA7746X that helps a lot with the steering. You can also add shims to the servo spring to stiffen it up.
Bought the metal gear upgrade and servo saver upgrade and have been reasonably happy with the steering. Quicker, much more responsive and more steering torque at the tire.
I upgraded that the second time out with it and it makes a big difference. I think people under estimate this mod because its still technically the same "slow" servo. But the saver is the hero here!
@@craiglamb9029I agree. I’m definitely going to grab a m2c bellcrank soon as he releases them.
Sway bars.
@@craigpoer does anyone know who makes them for the xmaxx with a wide kit? I would love to find some for my truck.
@@thedeadlee690 it seems like I saw a youtuber show them as an up grade.
At a guess, the weak wingmount is probably a break point to stop breakage elsewhere. Maybe they could make it out of rubber or something.
Couldn't you fix the pushing a bit, by increasing the weight of the fluid?
Xrt mount sold by @rccarguyGarage on UA-cam it’s bullet proof
I will send you a snap in upgrade for the stock wing mount. Makes it much stronger. 3 second install.
Maybe a carbonfiber wingmount
I have the 'XRT Roll Bar Sign' in black/Red lettering from GarageLiferc 💪. I worked with them on the make of it 👀and its Phat Azz, Yo Chief it came out great it's a #1 stunner😱 Also have the G-liferc's body wing mount too!
No, no one is telling you to do that to your F250... 🙄
yep $1000 and the usual things needed.

I got in on the rcbox club 2 years ago .
The ultimate flex, knocking on a traxxas product, infront of traxxas 👀
That is indeed one of the smartest/key things with one of these large scale RC's! KEEP THEM NEAR STOCK!!! Weight is the killer with these!
I fully agree with you. My non-modified X-Maxx has been incredibly durable.
Fastest eating world record!!🏆 congratulations
Hey I would really like to build my own roller badger that absolutely rips and is fast and durable but I need help. I only built fpv drones and not sure how the esc and motor and remote bind or sync. Would you mind helping me out something together as a list and how to instructions plz?
Can't expect any wing to hold up to smashing into the ceiling 😆🤣 Fun watching though 😁
Fill the wing mount with silicone tape on the bottom fill it let it dry 💪🏻💪🏻
The XRT probably has all the same problems as the Xmaxx because they are the same platform
On my cars are 1.18 and 1.16 scale
Where is the actual traxxas store
I didn't hear anything about the Xrt before release and bought an Xmaxx 2 weeks before. I love the Xmaxx but probably would have gone with the Xrt if I knew it was coming. Xmaxx is my first Traxxas since the slash 11 years ago and Traxxas has came a long way
wow what a nice Traxxas store!
Like I said every time you go in that store I can’t even imagine having a store in ny like that and the rear wing mount I bought an upgrade on there bunch out there and thanks
well imagine having to find places for 2 dozen 1/5 scales . I might know of that issue.
The click bait is real
Go figure having to buy replacement parts a constant issue with all traxxas.and you have to buy extras because it's weak.lmbo.
Have one it is an totally AWSOME CAR.
Wake up msm dropped a new video!
Sounds insane i like it
Always great footage
Make a shelf dude
Nice hobby shop
great video
