Just got one of these a few days ago after not having an RC car since I was a kid (45 now). Boy, motors and batteries have come a long way. This thing is insane! Goes crazy fast with a 3s 5000 65C battery! Have already abused the heck out of it at the skate park with the kids and it didn't bat an eyelid :D Very impressed.
Just bought this car with the upgraded RPM front and rear lower A arms, get it this Friday hopefully. The combo car with battery and controller. Have Arrma's Traxxas but not quite happy with them. Will run it on 2 or 3S. Just disappointed in my other cars breaking. Have nothing that I can really send. I am 78 ( no lie ). Hope this is the car that can handle the abuse? Life is short and every day counts.
I am 53 and use these cars to run my dogs.I hate fixing them and want something reliable too.My Xmaxx broke right out of the box and I don’t jump these cars.I am with ya.I think these manufacturers make them to break.I have a Glock made in 1987 and it is made out of plastic mostly and it still works.Salute to playing young.👍
Mt10 solid can jump all day long unlike others just keep pushing it an enjoy it team associated no 1 nothing comes close these are winners no 1 has won as much as team associated
I bought the Short Course Truck version, which is the SC10 Pro4. Incredible truck for the money. Hard to believe it’s $339! To be competitive on a race track, all the truck needed was a nice battery (ProTek RC 9600 2S LIHV), a good servo (ProTek RC 100T), aluminum servo horn (ProTek RC), good tires (AKA Impacts, Super Soft Long Wear), and the RPM arms. Very minimal modifications. If you want a truck to race for fun, or you are just getting into racing, seriously consider this truck! I’m super impressed with how dialed it is out of the box.
I dig the v2..I still have the helion..I only cracked an a-arm at the hing pin after 4 plus years lol..Just happened recently..I went to modesto hoobytown in 2020 and bought all kinds of helion spare parts ..They had two boxes full
Our Helion still running strong, but finally busted the wheelie bar off and there is no replacement due to shit part support. Really a shame because the Helion is a super solid truck for the most part.
Great job going over the V2. I have a blue one so I guess that's version 1? I have only taken mine out a couple of times and it's plenty durable. I do agree the breaks are a bit chronic. You sure got some good air off the one jump. I sure wish there was such a nice area to drive at near me. Awesome presentation or the MT10. 👍👍🏆🏆
It would be cool to see you do a long wheelbase conversion using the Pro4 SC10 chassis but with an MT body and tyres, maybe something new for the channel
Awesome video brother you got another subscriber I went from a Traxxas Bigfoot to a Vortex. back in 2021 2022 I purchased the Rival mt-10 V1 I had so much fun especially the summertime right after covid man rival mt 10 was well worth every penny. I just picked up the Rival mt-10 V2 opposed to buying just the truck 70$ extra 410.00 I got another charger by reedy and a 3s lipo hard case.combo. Anybody have any suggestions on RC brushless Monster trucks that requires Dean's plug that's fairly quick alongside of awesome bashing besides Armma traxxas and Pro Associated?
I just ordered one but that radio has to go. I had one with a Ecto crawler and that thing would get locked in forward sometimes when I did a quick reverse to forward move. Also binding it to my GT5 radio I should be able to lower brake power just by lowering end point for it.
Our V1 was a cheap second hand buy and came with a Max10sct. It’s been a bit of a money pit - new RPMs, new spur gear, new driveshaft (my fault), new hinge pins (daughters fault), new servo (my choice), new hw 3660 g2 motor and the radio and/or rx just started glitching horribly so will get replaced with an SLT3 from Jenny’s. In spite of all that, I love this little truck. Great to drive on all terrains and perfect size for the skatepark. Just trimmed the body at the weekend for exactly the reasons you described - the Max10sct/3660 with a 15t gets those tyres ballooning enough to necessitate surgery
This MT10 looks so much more planted than the Hoss. Have you ran the Hoss? How would you say they compare? I see the v1 MT10 is on sale now that the v2 is out.. thinking of picking up a v1 since there doesn't seem to be any performance improvements to the v2. What's your thoughts? Keep up the great vids Razor!!😁👍
Maybe you’ve done a video on this already but I’m pretty new to Rc. I really only know anything about traxxas and arrma. How does team associated compare to those? I have 3 3s vehicles. Rustler, vortex, typhon and a 6s kraton.
Razor you should check out the redcat Trmt10e one day. I hold that truck right there with this one and love them both. Don't know why it gets slept on so much but is the best 10th scale MT along with the rival mt10. Maybe one day I'll see it on the channel. Hey Razor did you see the new Recat Machete yet? Any thoughts?
Only problem with AE always been part distribution............ The day they can have parts in Canada/USA widely available or score a deal with AMAZON they would eat TRAXXAS.
Shudv changed the esc./ a arms Maybe 80-100 amp & 3660 system in it. The helion had a programmable esc and stronger plastics. Same esc rebranded by Radiant. Thats all the armma’s had on it imo. Awesome truck tho still!!!!
I've owned both, ended up selling off my Big Rock when I moved up to mostly 1/8 scale stuff. Kept my MT10 but mostly for sentimental reasons as it was my first big time main brand truck after a few HBX/Wltoys models. Having owned both, it was worth it. They are two different experiences. The Big Rock is like a monster truckified Senton and has a longer wheelbase and lower center of gravity where as the MT10 is like a better handling and easier to work on Granite.
@@RazorRC Yeah when I looked it was backorder. I guess the ship finally got here. He he. I need lots of parts for my current rc vehicles, so yeah. No new RC for me for a long time! 😂. I'm sure you think that this truck is better than the Hoss right? 😅😅
Hi, I've been following your channel for a while. In fact, I looked at the test that he did on the Hobao MTX to decide on him and I am very happy with the result. Right now I'm looking at something relatively compact to basher on and I like the following: MT10 V2, Sketer, Savage XS Flux (albeit a bit smaller) and Mad Wagon. You have not tried this last one and I would like to know if you are going to try it because I am interested in your opinion. A greeting from Spain.
I have this car. I have only ran it on 2s 50c. I just ordered 3s 5200 50c. I keep seeing videos with the 3s where it is constantly doing wheelies. What are you running battery wise in your video 2s or 3s? Any way to make adjustments to the car that will decrease wheelies?
Did you swap the battery connectors? Because mine comes with a t plug and you have a ec5 on yours. Or is that just a germany thing that it comes with different connectors
I get it, the Video is like 6 months old (so RUclips tells me). Great job indeed, but how can you say it's more durable etc. yadayada after so many years you practiced, barely hit a bad spot for a landing. Maybe it's just me, but I want to know if you break this one like a MT10 (chances are low till something stupid happens or till you really aim for it). Since it is a new car I hope there is an update somewhere with your repair list :)
Solid little car.. kinda.. I grabbed a V2 because of this and other videos praising it... blew apart a front shock on a small little Tomahawk roll, just coming out of a Baseball diamond! Its a fun car. But its power doesn't even compare to lets say, an Arrma Granite. Which is also a 3S 1/10 scale.
Hi Razor. GREAT summary as always. Thank you for comparing V1 and V2! Debating a Rival MT10 or Arrma Vorteks. Looking to run around a park on grass, pavement, dirt. Some jumps, but not stunts or ‘sending it.’ While RC club racing is behind me, I do appreciate a feeling of ‘handling.’ Durability and a big smile are what matters. Any recommendation on Vorteks vs. MT10 in that context?
Had a vorteks. Spent lots of money trying to make it as-capable-as a Big Rock or mt10. It’s a car that doesn’t know what it’s trying to be. Unless your on road/off road bias is at least 60% on road, the other two are better choices, imho.
Ive seen vids on here of it doing 28.9mph on 2s & 43.9 on 3s Ive got the truck but no gps, been running on 2s but just had a 3s 7000mah 100c battery delivered the other day

I just tape the inside of my truck bodies with black gorilla tape for reinforcement and it works great. That stuff is amazing.
Mt10 is a great mt. What do you think compared to a E5HX 4s or ARR regarding handling an durability? Cheers

Machete looks cool, might get one...
Usually because of distribution, Associated stuff is widely distributed around the world
Definitely performs well. More durable than the v2 Maxx do you think? Seems like better value.
Only problem with AE always been part distribution............ The day they can have parts in Canada/USA widely available or score a deal with AMAZON they would eat TRAXXAS.

I have heard the front joint cracks or breaks seen a few videos of this happening
This thing would be a beast with the SC chassis and a 3660 4000+kv.
Still fantastic, and hard to beat at that price
There is a Brushed version as well.
I so wish I had gotten one of these instead of the Big Rock
I've owned both, ended up selling off my Big Rock when I moved up to mostly 1/8 scale stuff.

Yeah I had them both and only still have one of them... Think you know what one! Another sleeper is the redcat trmt10e is another great option!
@@seanwilson9117 I'm thinking of getting HBX. Should I just skip that stage and go for MT10?

Would a gear change make it any faster ? Does it come with one
That MT10 is tough!
Can anyone recommend a good battery? Brand name and size. Thanks
So they took away a part, gave it a different body and upped the price by ~£45. Well done, Team Associated!
What would you choose between these and the mt410?
So with the $400 option does the battery it comes with allow to go a little ove 40mph?
Rpm arms a must
What battery was in this during the bash session?
I have this car. I have only ran it on 2s 50c. I just ordered 3s 5200 50c. I keep seeing videos with the 3s where it is constantly doing wheelies. What are you running battery wise in your video 2s or 3s? Any way to make adjustments to the car that will decrease wheelies?
Reduce the gear ratio by putting a smaller pinion in it
I need help finding a steel spur gear. For mt10. Any ideas’s
Did you swap the battery connectors? Because mine comes with a t plug and you have a ec5 on yours. Or is that just a germany thing that it comes with different connectors
I switched it to EC5

This is pretty much the same car as the MT10 V1, so it will have the same durability.

I like the MT10 a little better. More fun than the Vorteks for sure.

I took 'em off. Better steering this way.
Just curious..., You said the motor is the same as version 1 but isn't version 2 brushless where version 1 was brushed?
They make an orange brushed and a red V2 brushless. They used to have a blue/white V1 brushless.
