      You're crazy to bash that Traxxas UDR that truck is an absolute mess to work on from what it looks like... Maybe I just don't know shit about these trucks but I drive the 4X4 slash & 2wd rustler + stampede them are a breeze to pull apart

    Gotta say that thing looks bad ass. I’m still a newbie in the hobby but I can’t recall a rc truck hitting that sweet spot between scale realism and high speed controllable performance like this one. By the way great camera work. Thanks for the video

      @mikescallon4288 Рік тому +1

      Not sure I would say 30 mph high speed. Anything considered sweet at least in my book must be at least 50 mph without me needing to put on bigger pinion gears. Considering this is already overheating with whatever it comes with anything larger won't be feasible without a motor and esc swap which could then turn a $530 purchase to close to $1,000.

    I just bought a brand new Traxxas stampede brushless 4 x 4 and I gotta say it is a beast! I love the look of this Ford raptor R, but I'm a sucker for the colour green which is why I chose the stampede. Both of these trucks are just as great.
    One minor thing I changed on my stampede was my receiver. Because I bought a horizon hobby DXS Aircraft controller because it has the thumb stick set up. Because as a person that loves the RC hobby but with a physical disability, just swapping out the receiver that works with the new controller and with the help of my local hobby dealer, I can now control the gas and brake and my steering all in one thumb stick and I absolutely love it!

    What I love about this truck is I have a 2011 F-150 FX4 in race-red, Super Crew cab, KO2's and blacked-out stock rims. Near-spittin' image and that's my justification for buying one. I need to complete the set. Closest I'll ever get to a real Raptor. Even the tread pattern is the same! Traxxas rocks!

    I saw there was no swaybar not surprised you noticed the body roll. For $530, not sure why they wouldn't include one. My experience the Traxxas motors is they burn up on 3s. Apparently they still do, based on your complaints of lack of fan.

    • @rcdriver
      @rcdriver  Рік тому +1

      The swaybar is typically an option for them, yup certainly noticed the roll. The TSM helps to overcome that a little, but for those dialing that out, that swaybar purchase will probably come soon. I didn’t burn up my system, but if I had went pack after pack, it probably would have ended up that way. I have a fan somewhere to throw in for future runs.

    But one good thing is, it looks nice.

    For 500 it should come with better shocks and servo, also more aluminum. Similar to the slash ultimate.
    Nice job talking it up though.

    It's refreshing to see this very affordable/reliable scale basher enter an ever-widening and increasingly costly arena of 4 to 8s behemoths that rarely go much faster but suffer far more costly maintenance and repairs. Good show Traxxas!

      529 for a Slash with decals for windows and 30 mph speed capabilities? $499 for an Arrma Typhoon 6s and 70+ miles per hour speeds and alot more metal versus all plastic.

    My only complaint for this with the size and the price is that Traxxas should have given it the system from the Hoss, the full 4s from the Max would have been awesome but at least give the 2400kv motor. Also they should have used gtr shocks for it if not giving the better electronics.

      @@jeremiahlozano8484 I was just giving my opinion on Traxxas, trust me I know Traxxas makes some great RCs, The TMAXX in my opinio is the bashing king, Kevin Talbot Thunder RC and many others all agree!!! The XRT and a few others are pretty awesome also that said I'm more into racing so if I was going to buy a RC it wouldn't be a Traxxas, The only Traxxas I can think of I would even consider buying for racing would be the Slash, because you can set it up for short course off road dirt or carpet and many other types of racing like road coarse and even drag racing, Definitely one of the most multi use platforms and now they have came out with this longer chassis for the Raptor which was pretty sick, lol that said I'd still choose Losi Team Associated Techno or maybe Schumacher depending on the style of racing lol They make better racing models because that's more of what they focus on!!!

    Mmm it's nice but just something a little off with the wheels/arches if they'd used Slash sized rims and just downsized the arches a little bit and would have been more scale top effort for a basher though! If they do the Ford & Chevy thing be interested!
