Traxxas if you're watching, Bandit Pro Edition! Love to see this thing with a bit of carbon goodness spread through out. This car is severely under appreciated. Good work lads!
It's been virtually the same since the mid 90s when it was released. The vxl has all of the upgrades on it already, and the newer models even offer the new laydown transmission. Not much they could do that's not already offered.
Love all the bandit videos. Literally one of the only people that makes such in depth build and race videos with it. Makes me want to keep going with this hobby. Not many tracks near me and I’m honestly terrified to show up and just be so new that nobody will help me learn.
Great update on the racing bandito! Hoping to get an xl-5 and have fun with my son. Looking forward in more content on basic upgrade & parts needed. Keep it up!
Great vid on a trip to race another track. And YES SIR I got my Bandit just recently. I got one for my daughter as well. Can't wait for the next video.
Looks like a diff upgrade is in your future? Yes, you can modify the stock diff to hold oil, however, the Hot Racing diff is probably a better choice...maybe 60-100K oil. Any suggestions? Getting power down in the turns looked like the bugger, IMHO. Thanks for the video and keep rocking it. Nice podium finsih BTW.
When I used to race back in the mid/late 1990s early 2000s the on-road course guys use to flip the shock upside down to lower the center of gravity. I'm wondering if that would work on the rock crawlers, or any other RC vehicles in competition. I wonder if it legal in ROAR???
Since when did you guys get the Timmies down there in Merika? Good job on the podium by the way, can you please show what the stabilizer bar looks like. Thanks
I really like your bandit videos! Bandit was my first rc car ever. I would be interested in a race comparison between the bandit and the associated rb 10. From Hungary:)
I enjoyed this latest edition on the Traxxas Bandit. You may not care. But, kids have started racing Bandits because of your videos. I even posted some on Facebook. But, in this video you had quite a bit of crude language and content. I won't be posting it. There are probably many kids watching this series. This is just something to think about.
Well shit anyone can drive faster when they glue the track i mean don't that decrease the skill of the track when tracks were loamy or dirt it was about the drivers skill and car setup now shit lets just dump glue or tack products on the track idk just me ranting I guess just miss the old day's when off road was off road.....Still love your vids this was not a rant to you or your channel....
So i do bash trucks but looking to run a track now and then. Basicaly all i need is a Bandit and i can have fun for a low pricetag? I mean getting a vxl that is 300 vs a 1000 dollar car you can exect a difference but you can still have fun. So is a Bandit the way to go?
What kind of compound or sand is the track made of ? I’m in a rc group and we would like to start making a track for us to run some rc’s. Thanks! (Love the bandit movement, I want one too now😁)

The VXL brushless Bandit has all the upgraded parts compared to the brushed entry level version...

@@Snowtrails11 what’s the “lay down” transmission? Is that the same as the Magnum?
Thanks!
@@HectorRodriguez-id4ml the Magnum 272R is the new version with sealed differential, hd topshaft, and a couple other improvements I'm forgetting.
It was cool to see that thing fly around the track you are a really good drive
Thanks

Just ask some questions and you’ll make some Friends at the track. Rc guys are friendly for the most part and willing to help.
waking up to this on a Monday morning absolutely awesome
As an Australian I like to see certain things in the vids I watch. Beer, swearing, RC Hi-jinks and of courrse, buttstuff.
This vid delivers!
😂
you all need to come to Hoosier RC hobbyplex right outside Louisville KY
It is definitely on the list!

The Bandito series is the best. Hope you do this with the Slashito. Traxxas really should help out. No doubt this is driving sales.
Hell yeah....." Is that a curling iron"!! 😂
Man that looks like fun. Shoot, your driving looked great in my opinion
you need the mip nut and bolt kit for the rpm caster blocks and A-arms :) learned that the same way.

I'm so glad you are doing this I love the videos.
Thank you

I love the videos man, keep them coming! I just bought me a Bandito today! I can’t wait to take it to a race!!! 😎😎🤙🏻🤙🏻
Years ago traxxas fielded a pretty good race team…
Whoa! There is a Tim Hortons out there!
wrf? i notice that too
I’d love to see a sway bar install video
Great series. Love the bandit
Glad you like them!
Definitely love the bandito videos. I’m shaping mine up to race 17.5 as well
Good luck!
@@mxacres much appreciated. Thank you
Great video go Traxxas
Great video that's a nice track as well!
Indeed it is!

Give it a try. You’ll have fun
Since when did you guys get the Timmies down there in Merika? Good job on the podium by the way, can you please show what the stabilizer bar looks like. Thanks
About 25 years ago

Awesome! Thanks for watching
try out part number #3740 to strengthen the caster block and hub.

That is awesome!
Traxxas doesn’t have a hair on their ass unless they sponsor some pro drivers again; but racing bandits.
That’s my hobby shop that I go to
Ed’s is awesome!
way to rip it up MX Acres Dude.
💪🏼
Do you have a vid off how you install the sway bar? What if you put it in the front. Is it a difference between front and rear
Great racing...would love to know all the electronics in that buggy........trying to get mine to turn in better........👍
Hobbywing just stock esc, fantom 17.5,
Where did you get the front wing and mount......
Ae b6.3 wing and mount. Flipped upside down
How far are you from Long Island ? You should come race with us on some carpet at traction action
Almost in Ohio

I get it. I love it all.

I’d say so if your on a budget
How about running a bandit on carpet?
Probably try in next winter. Spring is approaching and I’ll be back to mxacres working for the summer soon.
you guys are so close to me! where y’all at in this??
Ed’s Rc in Parkersburg wv.
Put the new trans in it
What kind of compound or sand is the track made of ? I’m in a rc group and we would like to start making a track for us to run some rc’s. Thanks!
(Love the bandit movement, I want one too now😁)
I’m not sure. Seems like red clay mixture to me.
What axles, hexes and wheels are you using? I am having issues finding wheels that will work. Running rustler axles front and rear right now.
Stock axles with traxxas snap in hexes.
@@mxacres I'll go that route. Thanks
You said you were running 30/35 er shock oil. Is that F/R? What pistons?
30 ft 35 rear. 2 hole pistons all around
Do marshals get hazard pay? LoL
I’m curious as to how you hold the shorty pack in. Do you have Velcro under it or something?
Double sided tape.
I heard traxxas is going to stop making brushed bandits, looks like the normal model without the lights is already gone on A main. Bummer.
Ditch the RPM parts. They're too soft and flexible for racing. Go back to stock parts.
first comment baby!
Wow. Congratulations.
