Thank you for this new update on this new Maxx Slash, i am liking your ideas & suggestions & am deffo pulling the trigger on this one, i am sure it will be a beast 👌🏼👍🏼🤜🏼🤛🏼
I've got the EXB K8S. I bent the chassis pretty quickly with 26ft high jumps, so I had to put an M2C chassis and I've had to upgrade other stuff. In the end, it's much more expensive to run the K8S than the big plastic chassis vehicles from Traxxas. I've got an upgraded Xmaxx too. For my kind of bashing, the Arrma 8s trucks break more than my X-Maxx or sure. It's because of the weight difference. Sure the Arrma 8s trucks are more stable than the Xmaxx, but yeah. Cheers
This is why I am thinking of getting a maxx v2 over the sledge. The plastic chassis is $23 bucks for the maxx and the metal one is $70 for the sledge. I'd have to break the one on the maxx 3 times to equal one chassis for the sledge.
@@blue-steel7177 You will never break the chassis on the Maxx. I've never heard of anyone doing it while bashing. I've seen someone split it in three parts, but they were going full speed and they hit the axle of an SUV. My problem with the Maxx is the bulkheads. I crack the upper and lower ones regularly. I also had to put aluminum hubs and a gpm spur gear cover and motor mount. My motor kept shifting on me and the hubs and the driveshafts were breaking on me. So the Maxx V2 or V1 is not perfect either. After you replace the chassis on the Sledge with an M2C one, then the Sledge is probably tougher, but it's so expensive to begin with. Cheers.
@@joseCalderon1976 well I mean i don't expect perfection. Car companies have invested likely trillions into designing cars over the lats 100+ years and they are all still pretty much shit. I think the sledge is nice but it also has its own issues and at its original price of $700 its like $140 more to start with and then you need to start replacing parts of it to bring up its durability to a cheaper car.
@@benjiej1380 didn't know there was a jump height the vehicles were meant to go. Send it to the moon and have fun. I have K6S exb, Fireteam, and Maxx V2 send them all over 30 feet. stuff breaks then I replace with upgrades. super fun
Just asking but can either of the 3 be equipped with headlights & taillights??Don't own either of the 3 but planning on purchasing the TRAXXAS XRT as my 1st RC TOY..
Nice Info. I have all 3 vehicles you displayed. The XRT has a lot of improvements over the XMaxx, and with the extended arms kit on the XMaxx , It matches up to the XRT width (yeah the XRT already has the extended arms kit). Of course the XRT is much lower than the XMaxx and Traxxas overall is much easier to work on. but at the end of the day, all 3 are really great vehicles.
it's ok to compare all the vehicles to one another but at the end of the day. it's bout people taste and want n also what they can afford. this hobby is not cheap at all. shout out to those who take their time to breakdown these beautiful cars
I’ll choose the arrma over traxxas every time just my personal preference to have some metal associated , also I’ve never bent an arrma chassis under normal bashing habits, all these people bending chassis are going absolutely huge which most people are not doing.
Yes sir same motor same plastic but supposed to be racing truck with NO adjustable ESC, or BEC??, no camber, toe , nothing is adjustable and NO sway bars, fixed plastic links,also STREET Tires?? What is supposed to look like no stickers too!! The only think is no body post that’s it, All leftover parts which is nothing new or anything really with invention at all you can lower the Xmaxx and your done!!? Arrma EXB it’s the name that what I have
@@chrischupp9760 plastic mounts? On what? Nothing modern in 1/10,1/8 or 1/6th scale that actually puts out power where a metal mount is needed. I think your a bit biased there. Traxxas put more R&D into their product then any other RC company by far. ARRMA is great too but they have positives and negatives just like traxxas does. Smelling a bit of ignorance here bud. There's not a single traxxas model that you HAVE TO buy a traxxas specific battery, ESC, or any other component for that matter. Do a lil more research and educate yourself before spouting off nonsense lol
One thing that people need to know because, I know people are going to hear, the XRT is plastic versus metal on the Crayon however, the reason why Traxxas uses plastic is because it's stronger and the metal can bend fairly easy, there's reviews on the Craton and where they bend the bottom chassis really easy off a big jump. So just because people hear plastic, that doesn't mean it's a bad thing. But both cars are great awesome RC truggy's!
No we love the plastics we just don't like prices they charge charging more or same as machined meta) the arrmas are stamped stock though sp getting comparable b le
@@paulclancy2404 all materials.. EVERYTHING is costing. Ore to make.. even if its on other cars... same price point as the Xmaxx... i Praise Traxxas for everything they do.. They Changed The RC Game..
Can you tell with few words that what is the difference between xrt and x-maxx? I have no idea what is the purpose of XRT after X-maxx which is bigger and much more beautiful goer.
If money was no object and you could put any upgrades, tuning parts etc into your car. To make it as powerful and fast as you ever wanted. Which one would you choose?
@@LifebyDesignyeah man. I installed a MAX 6 ESC yesterday and I’m upgrading the servo today. I have other upgrades to do before the weekend. Can’t wait to try it out.
XRT anyday, Traxxas has proven the absolute superiority of their plastic chassis with the X-Maxx already. Also much lighter, makes big difference on the battery load and heating of the motor.
One of the main reasons why Traxxas uses plastic is because plastic believe it or not is actually stronger those Crotons can bend the chassis real easy because it's metal but the plastic they use is very strong high grade plastic.
@@rayv882 There is no need to believe......countless videos are proving the superiority of the Xmaxx when it comes to durability. Not even speaking about the fact that you can buy 4 or 5 spare Xmaxx chassis for the price of one aluminim chassis for the Kraton 8s. No need to believe, just watch the proofs, Xmaxx is more durable than any Arrma RC.
@Ilestun Then if the chassis and parts are so much cheaper why are they the same price as the 8s? I just feel like Traxxas is ripping me off for all plastic when the Sledge has the aluminum chassis and is very good.
@@Random-bm7ho So for you to not get the feeling of being ripped off, Traxxas should increase the price of their spare parts. I can't answer to such madness, it's too much. But thank you, now I understood why Apple charges such ridiculous prices for repairs and still have people happy to pay such prices. That was bothering me to not understand, your comment made me understood......because if repair was much cheap, people like you would felt ripped off.
Thanks this was a great thorough look at both trucks and well explained. Nice to see them compared really get to see size and differences. I think when the time comes I would go with the XRT. It’s more what I’m looking for overall. I think it will be more durable too in the long run. For now though, my next truck I think is the Sledge or a Maxx V2 finally.
ive got thousands of laps at my friends crazy track and the k8 has held up incredible well. other than regular diff changes it's a very solid truck. my xmaxx went on marketplace after having to warranty ALL the electronics several times, not to mention the steering is complete garbage in that thing. even after a direct power high torque servo it still just couldn't lap like a kraton could
😅To be honest...😂I don't know how happy I would be if I could work in a store like this...🤣Because if I work in a store like this, I would buy a car every six months to reward myself and encourage myself to work harder..😂Then the boss would occasionally see us silently working hard for his store and reward us with small parts, which is also a happy thing..😅This is just my personal feeling of happiness...
The kraton 8$ is king of the r cs I have a new 1 I have 10 r cs. My Kraton still in the box. I don't even run it because I don't want to break it. I run my new sledge. Ervo 2.o converted savage 4.6 to electric. An my Mohave. I like that xrt .
Those are awesome however 8s line in my opinion are way way to heavy and big . They are going to break more often. The 6s line hits the sweet spot and out the box they are way faster. I love the 6s line
Prices are to high ,they price needs to come down to earth example redcat shredder is 1/6 size and is 400.00 comes with 3300kv motor and is very fun to bash best thing is can buy two to three shredders for the price of kraton or xmaxx ..and shredder has room to upgrade electronics to 8s and again with out breaking the bank .
When an American says ‘10.2 inches’, do they mean 10.2 as in 10 plus 20% of an inch, or do they mean 10 plus 2/12ths of an inch??? So confused by this measuring system.
Great rigs, and good job. I like traxass shells, it's the electronics that kill it for me. Spectrum is way better than what traxass has. My xmaxx failed since day one, esc, motor ,servo, name it, it failed. I had to sink about 1500 dollars into it , to make it reliable. Thinking xrt will do the same.
Stock will always be breaking , mine did anyways. I felt like taking a bat to it. Never a full run on my xmaxx. It was a lemon. Esc ,motor, servo. Multiple times. It was always on the bench
Dumbest comment ever. He literally just took ot out and put it on the counter. Then put it back in the box. Ehat do you think happens when an interested customer comes in? "Oh sorry you have to look at the box and imagine what it's like." Yeah right lol. That truck has probably already been out of that box and back in 10 times already.
Xrt is a great chassis but it’s going to suffer like all the other Traxxas units the electronics are terrible I know they’re never going to do it but if they would build a kit or a roller kind of like the exb you would have a winner you’re going to hear people singing the praises of this truck and then jerking every bit of the electronics out and swapping them with hobby wing or castle units not going to pay that much just to rip out all of the electronics and replace them and on the stock gearing honestly the videos I have seen it’s not that impressive as far as speed is concerned
I'd assume this is the next place for traxxas to go, there are only so many improvements you can make to the chassis designs. I figure the next thing you start to see is slightly better electronics and I think if you look at the maxx 2 , sledge and now xrt they are better than what came before. Just not that much.
Bought the Kraton and XRT about a month apart and drive both of them about the same amount of time for 5-6 months or so. I liked the Kraton but after replacing my 4th chasis plate, it's pretty much a shelf queen now while I continue driving my XRT with zero issues so far.
Whenever arrma releases another Kraton they definitely need to get rid of the body clips
@Yallsofake surprised it went threw m2c blender without a lawsuit
Thank you for making time to compare these beautiful beasts
Looking forward to seeing other tires on the xrt
The stocks are said to be amazing
So tempted to buy the xrt, but i will wait for a rock-and-roll edition.
The comparison we’ve been waiting for! Although it is curious you have Traxxas cars on display but the kraton you don’t.
I saw a few arrma trucks and a losi, probably just doesn't have room for more.
You have great information about RC ergonomics. Keep up the great work.

Awesome comparison. I also liked the XMaxx comparison you did
Which should one choose if you have to choose one ?
Yeah. Compare it to the K8S since they are both truggies. Good stuff! Thanks.
What arrma cars can do a standing backflip no mods on a flat floor/ground and at whats the lowest s rating vehicle can it pull it off
what is the difference between the exb and blx versions of the kraton?
I was under the impression, the xrt on the box says 1200kv, but the motor actually says 1275kv on the side?
Traxxas calls it the 1200XL motor even though it is 1275KV
