I put the Traxxas Sledge Shocks on the rear of my Maxx, with 1000cst oil in it, and the D Boots Backflip LP tyres on. It's a complete new truck. Way better handling. Nice video. All the best from Germany
nice video. I been thinking about getn one of these for a while now. crashed my hoss full speed into a curb last nt. sucker held up good. just gotta replace gear that frt drive shafts goes into. Have fun and thanks for the Entertainment
Personally I found those Maxx tyres expand really easily and it makes for good air control but if the rear diff is empty or running very thin silicon the rear tyres diff out under acceleration and expand unevenly making it start drifting to the left or right and will make for uncontrollable wheelies as one wheel expands larger than the other
I got the same one i put the multi channel a quarter more to te right for better straight line. Greeting from Holland the Netherlands 🇳🇱 ❤ love your vid
@@nathan2000100 personally both are very good but they aren't the same type of RC. Traxxas has in-house upgrades if/when needed. Outcast not so much but might not need them unless you're over driving it's capability.
Like driving a wet noodle 😂🤣😂 well glad you finally figured out the tsm but you didn’t check for speed run 🤔🤔🤔 your vids getting funnier and funnier had me laughing out loud… 👍👍👍
And the 2@5000 wouldn't be??? just remember the more weight the more harsh it is on everything. Stop thinking runtime and take it as a cool down break for the truck
sure they are, but the 8000 ways like a 3.8tyre and a 5000 battery 😅 was just wondering since i saw you running a ovonic 8000 and im curious for one for trail riding and therefore more runtime.. think il go with 2 5000 instead then :)@@rcguygarage
Turn the multifunction all the way clockwise to 100 for full traction control on pavement. 1/2 way is more for dirt, and all the way off for backflips and ramp jumping. Stock sledgehammer tires are great for flips and off road, but horrible for speed runs... never will handle as well as an arrma kraton or outcast, though. Bet that bulkhead is toast from that tree.. I'm running mine on a max 8 on 6s...
Hi, the TSM is just gyro for steering and it works only when you go forward. At least on my rig it works so. When I want to test the gyro, I always need to pull trigger at lest a little. Anyway, it has no impact on throttle, only on steering.
whoa.. Ive gone back in time to when the Maxx was brand new, :) and I still say "Guys' Brain" needs its own Y.T channel :) hmm.. I wonder if that left rear got into the tree and cracked something in the spindle area which finally came apart at Diamond Dust 🤔
Ottimo video sempre istruttivo ed utile.

@@rcguygarage 🤣 I feel ya. I got my maxx v1 to 57 and dialed. Adjust your shock fluid. The stock is like baby oil. Running stock spur 25t saga pinion💨 I've found a little below half way (in the middle) is the sweet spot for me, around 20-30%. Your videos are truly funny as hell and 1 of a kind!
I have two 6,400 ma ivionic packs they're like 3 years old I still charge those suckers up and put them in the infraction and rip around on for us and I get like 35 minutes runtime.....
On the second pack with my maxx v2 I tried to self right, and it snapped 2 driveshafts and mangled the other 2. I got the metal dogbones in there now, but i haven't tried it again since.
I actually had the worst luck with my V2 metal spur exploded and took forever to get all those shards out then the receiver went bad within three weeks😥. All was fixable all was well 👍
@@bigboytoyzrc9258 guy that thing and I have a massive Vendetta and I think it's possibly because all the massive hype and then the experience that I had right out of the box the first battery pack was so damn uneventful that I felt like I just blew 1500 bucks 🤣😂 and then full well knowing I was going to have to pour more money into it just blew my mind

First maxx has smaller tires and heavier battery and speed is the same as outcast and that tells me thast maxx is faster and secondly you dont buy maxx for speed but for bash and stunts. And tree says everything.

An rc should be drivable without any helping hands like tsm all my rcs have the avc off or turned off completely. I like to have control on my rc and not the rc control itself for me. It feels like im not the one driving the truck. I understand tsm for 2 wd cars but on 4wds?

When that maxx v2 came out I was so pumped..........now the Arrma 4sv2 are out and I feel like I need them both.....sucks to be strung out on rc's.😁

Tsm only works when you tap throttle triggah then wiggle the truck but if it sits for 30 seconds it turn off to not wear out the servo 👍👍

What's the consensus? Arrma Outcast or the Traxxas Maxx for general bashing? I hear either are great just depends on the bias

Can’t wait for my 4s Outcast!
Get the Outcast?
got the max 8g2 combo in , cant decide for a 8000 4s or 2 5000. afraid the 8000 will be a bit heavy and impact handling on truck?
And the 2@5000 wouldn't be??? just remember the more weight the more harsh it is on everything. Stop thinking runtime and take it as a cool down break for the truck

the other one is the 5000 has 60c and the 8000 100c...but wouldnt probably feel any bigger diffrence even with the max8 g2 combo.
@@gunslinger9352 the 8k was a VERY bad idea I was being delusional with wanting tons of runtime and ultimately hurt the truck

Anything is possible or was it defective out of the box?
Might want to take a picture of it before you run it. Maybe two... Other than that, great video.
Yes always take the before picture so while you are crying over in a corner in a puddle of tears you'll at least have a memory of what once was
So, what’s your 5 month findings update? Still having issues with the tires and traction issues on pavement?
So, there's videos already done update 😳🤣😂 and yes tires are AWESOME off-road
Hilarious!! The tsm is 🌿, Oh My God It Hit A Tree!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 And the fan comment, too funny Guy!! Great video

Tsm slows you down on speed runs. Turn it down to about 20%
That's what I thought until it made a faster run 🤣😂

Wen you change the multi function knob first drive a little bit than the tsc will work put it on 75 procent and it wil drive so nice
Omg too funny!!
On the second pack with my maxx v2 I tried to self right, and it snapped 2 driveshafts and mangled the other 2. I got the metal dogbones in there now, but i haven't tried it again since.
Yes designed with convenience and necessary upgrades
Any chance of getting a comparison between the 4s and 6s?
I don't have the 6s Traxxas sledge I know Earl Moorhead does though
Was kinda hoping for a comparison between the 4s notorius and 6s notorius :) since the prices are so close
@@shawncool5496 OH this is a Traxxas video you had me confused🤣😂 but that's easy to do

More multi function then i found out it drives better for me personally
I got 52.8 with the v1 stock does have a wide Maxx and 70wt rear and 50wt front and proline trenches belted on it 3.8
AWESOME
Needs heavy diff fluid for sure . Keep traction on them front tires

@@rcguygarage yea it’s one of those what’s next moments, then the servo goes 😂
But hey go bash or go home ✌️
Maxx. Get the skidplate. Better to skid than absorb the hit I feel
I drive it on 3s it handles much much better
@@alainveenman6571 yes sometimes depends on terrain
I run the erevo proline badlands and it made a big difference
Try 80wt shock fluid and stretch the springs 1/4 inch. It'll stiffen up
Traxxas an Arrma parts car 🤣🤣🤣
Still can't figure out why the maxx weights so much ....
Compared to?

Sorry XMAXX on my mind!
First maxx has smaller tires and heavier battery and speed is the same as outcast and that tells me thast maxx is faster and secondly you dont buy maxx for speed but for bash and stunts. And tree says everything.
Nice 👍💯
Definitely not suited for on-road runs. Maybe some hoons would make it more stable but it still has a higher cg I think vs the outcast.
Yes kinda
Lol 😅😆😅 power of Christ compels you 😂😆 LMAO

That’s chassis slap from a foot or two is beyond annoying. I mean what the hell is traxxas thinking???? Man just annoying!!
buddy, is traxxas product man. the os6 did it best.
