Picked up this Traxxas Maxx V2 and we test it out for its first rip! Thanks for watching! Bash on Brother!
ive had my max v2 for a couple years. have upgraded it as things have broke. I bought it used so it had some wear but what I love about the maxi platform is there's a lot of options for upgrades. out the box they are solid trucks only think that sucks are the esc and the servo along with the servo saver. the caster blocks and hubs are weak after awhile but I've also ran mine into a trailer at wide open throttle and it was still fine lol I have a lot done to mine now and I would highly recommend a maxi to anyone they're awesome trucks
Once you said “I love this hobby” I subscribed. Good stuff and you’re not a pretentious jerk. Good stuff.
Lol thanks bud!
Great to see u back i want a max bad but there's the max slash to tough decisions lol
Right! It looks awesome! I'm a sucker for any and all desert racer/trophy trucks.
@@SketchRC- me to
New sub here, just found you from the Xmaxx vid (first experience) and it ended with this one as a suggestion. Absolutely love both rigs! Once I read, just have fun, I knew I was in the right place. Thanks, looking forward to browsing through the content in the past!
Appreciate it! And that's what it's all about!
Welcome Back Mike!!! Awesome to see you having a ball with a 1/10 scale basher👍👍😎😎👍👍
Oh yeah!!
I got the exact one. Love it
Awesome video glad to see a new one on your channel 👍👍
missed you content man! glad your back!
Great Vid! Is this the Goldilocks size? I’m between this and the full blown X-Maxx.
Depends on your space, I lean towards 5th scales primarily. I just like the size/weight/experience better than 10th. But still like my 10th scales tho!
The Maxx V2 is one of THE BEST BASHERS out there. Sell the creapy esc, get yourself a Max8 G2 2250Kv with GPM 50t main gear and a 23 pinion gear and run 6s with Arrma Backflip lP!
I run GPM golden springs front and rear, silicon plugs center Diff, Stock 50k front and rear diff and the Traxxas 8940X pin set... thats almost it. Servo is stock rn. but aluminium steering arms with a better servo are also worth the money but not necessary
AND most important. I changed the front and rear bulkhead 4x10mm bulkhead screw with M4x20 front and M4x25 rear with counter locknuts and the Bulkhead is indestuctable now! ... try it out and thank me later!
You know what you're talking about! This sounds incredible, I'm definitely gonna try that build once the stock enjoyment wears out haha. Thanks brother!
I was a guy calling 4s "perfect" for this car for about two years... and brother I was an Idiot 😂
Because of 6s even my damage on the car got less because of the better Air control. On 4s you need speed to Do good flips in the air... on 6s... just pull the damn trigger 😂😊😊
Do you have a youtube link with running this setup? I was sold on a kraton 6s EXB v2 but constantly hear everyone breaking things
So you’re saying it’s one of the best bashers if you take it entirely apart and replace almost every single last stock part on it? That’s an awesome build, but I think if you want a good RC without spending $800-$1000 on a 6s rig the stock Maxx v2 is perfect.
Hey man exactly which bulkhead screw are you talking about to replace and put a lock nut on ive replaced about 10 bulkheads on mine but i always drive it like i don't gotta pay for parts 😂
i have 2, V-1. I combined both to make one. and love it. dam durable. Have Fun
Front aluminum C hubs will fix the pop out issue. Awesome video!
Haven't really had it happen alot since. But luckily it's a quick fix! I'll look into that if it comes back. Thanks for the advice!
Im just joining this hobby by getting a maxx used for 350, hopefully it holds up
Good to see you Sketch! 🍺

Welcome back!
Traxxas is getting expensive, i remember when they were the value brand
Agree
What year was that 😂 my T Maxx is 16 years old this year and with everything it took to get it running .. about a thousand dollars .. 😂
@@276rclife6 I bought my Maxx with the second gen motor for under 400.00 and besides fuel I don't remember getting anything else, maybe broke a part or 2:and when I sold it it was still going strong. I'm saying they were always a lot less than what you would pay for other brands, the tmaxx was the start of them becoming a big brand, everything selling good used to be associated, losi, kyosho, not till after the tmaxx did Traxxas start taking a lot of space at my hobby shop.
I can't ever remember a time when Traxxas was a "value brand"
You should try the actual Mini Maxx if you haven't yet, it's even less intimidating and not too much less fun 🙂
Sledge shock bodies to reduce the rear droop.
The Maxx v2 was my first rc . And I put grew it once I started getting other cars .
Nice! I don't really outgrow any of em haha
@@SketchRC- understood . It was my least favorite car , especially after I started getting 1/8 and 1/5 .
Haha, I think the dog was slightly concerned about the unboxing technique !
Lol I almost added a bubble for his thoughts during that 😅
I have a V1 i run it on 3s i break less stuff and still plenty of power Maxx is the best.
Probably the better size in general for the monster trucks from Traxxas.
This or the new Outkast V2.5 with center diff?
Haven't ran than one yet. I was between that and this and decided to add some more traxxas to the shop.
@@SketchRC- you should buy a 4s kraton or outcast
Outcast, more stunt truck fun.
What motorcycle is that by your weights?
Kawasaki Z900RS
Heck yeah 💯👍

감사합니다

Max is good for durability but dont drive as good as competition, ill be going with arrma notorious v6
1:00 chainsaw
I didn't see this video. I really want one of these, but Traxxas rigs dont age well at all even when taken good care of. I owned an Xmaxx and i think this is better. Less torque twist and i haven't read anyone complain about stripped gears.
What is value or ages well now?
Why all the weird antics?
