  • @ninthislandrc
    @ninthislandrc 7 месяцев назад +11

    Honestly, I have a few thoughts on this, all of which come to the same conclusion - it's really not worth it. I know there will be people who will disagree with me...but, I have 5 points/options that, once understand, should help convince all but the "diehards" who have to have every Traxxas release.
    1) You can purchase the standard RTR, be "wise" in your upgrade decisions (as many have pointed out, Traxxas went (purposely???) 'overboard' in selecting upgrade parts), and sell off the brand-new no-longer-needed parts. In the end, you'll have an RC that's better than their 'Ultimate', and the final cost will be closer to $100-200 more than the standard RTR.
    2) You can purchase a roller from an RC chop shop, be "wise" in your upgrade decisions, and end up with the same vehicle mentioned in option #1, but with a final cost that's equal to, or possibly slightly less than, the standard RTR.
    3) Taking option #2 one step further, you could sell off the brand-new no-longer-needed parts, and end up with a final cost that's definitely less than the standard RTR.
    4) Part of why Traxxas is probably doing this...and, as already pointed out by others...is that Traxxas probably has a large number of unsold 'upgrade' parts in their warehouse, which is probably due to the fact that most 3rd-party upgrade parts cost less than Traxxas' own upgrade parts and/or those 3rd-party parts are of higher quality (such as 7075 vs Traxxas 6061).
    5) The final point has to do with something many have suspecting for several months - that Traxxas is going to soon be releasing a new version of the X-MAXX, based on the XRT chassis. This is a good way for Traxxas to 'unload' their excess of X-MAXX vehicles and/or upgrade parts. If you think about it, this, combined with point #4, makes a lot of logical sense.

    I’m debating between the xrt and the xrt ultimate.
    What do you recommend for me? I don’t care for aesthetics. I just like performance upgrades. Is the ultimate faster than the regular xrt? I saw a video where you are better upgrading yourself and it will be faster and better for the money. Is that true? This is my first rc and I don’t care for special edition or anything like that. But if the upgrades are worth it in your opinion, let me know.

      @UtopianOutcast Месяц назад

      Even the Arrmas have issues.. the new Spektrum electronics are apparently a little more prone to dying after jumps.
      Regardless yes, the XRT Ultimate is yes a little over the top. They do, yes, fix a lot of weak points on the stock XRT but the weight makes it prone to other stuff breaking.
      Nothing can truly be perfect, just get whatever you personally wanna get.

    @cmcconn100 7 месяцев назад +1

    I wish they'd upped the motor size like Arrma did on their new 8S trucks. The new EXBs are pretty awesome. I still love the XRT though. I'm guessing you've seen a few Kevin Talbot videos, my point is that the stuff that most readily breaks on X trucks, like the drive shaft bending, doesn't look like it was addressed. Still a nice looking truck.

    Why would people hold onto them and try to resale them if you can just buy the hop ups. There's nothing special about it. I could see if the hop ups were limited edition but they aren't. Or if they were some kind of special hop ups. I honestly don't really understand why it's limited edition to begin with. Only reason I can think of is the people at Traxxas probably figure not too many people are going to spend that kind of money on an rtr, on a regular basis to justify keeping it on the shelves. They wouldn't sell that many at that price, one of the great things about Traxxas is you can get into the hobby without spending a start up fortune. A $1500 car defeats the purpose. It goes against their market plan. It doesn't make good business sense to have something like that on the shelves for them long term I would think. I wouldn't spend that kind of money on one. If I was going to spend that kind of money I'd just go all out and build a race buggy or truggy. How is it a limited edition if everyone on RUclips seems to have one. 🤔 There's nothing limited about it, it's a Traxxas marketing ploy.

    I bought a slash ultimate 4x4 from my buddy. It’s only about a month old. He used it a couple of times and decided to get the xrt ultimate limited edition. I took it out for the first time today and it’s slow. Only goes like 30mph. On the app I have it set at 100%. When he got we took it out and it was screaming, like 60 mph. Any ideas why it’s so slow. I feel like it’s a setting of some sort. Thanks

    No offense to any diehard Traxxas fans but these new Ultimate X-Maxx and XRT's have too much aluminum parts and they still have the same unreliable VXL-8s these trucks should have come with a rebranded or genuine Hobbywing Max 6 or MMX 8s Equivalent ESC for the price. I was once a Traxxas fanboy myself and that was all i bought until i bought my first Arrma which was an Outcast 8s EXB and Rlaarlo which was an AK-917 carbon which in my opinion are better for the money that they're competition. Although i love my current Traxxas vehicles i own but i think these "Ultimate" X-Trucks have wasted potential and are overpriced compared to either the Non "Ultimate" version or the new Arrma Kraton and Outcast 8s RTR EXB's. Sorry for the long tangent.

    To each their own.
    But if you love the hobby and really love to "work" on your own stuff.
    Integy RC has a lot of very nice upgrades for the XRT as well as M2C racing for some of the chassis frame parts that Integy doesn't have. I think I figured around $700 plus the cost of the truck.
    This ultimate XRT is $1499??
    And it doesn't have a 1/3 of the parts, what that $700 will get you to do the upgrades yourself.
    Happy Hobbying, folks 😎👌

      Also, if one says its 1k of upgrades (which many are cosmetic and rven not performance upgrades, some r even downgrades, they just look good is all), forget to mention that those upgrades individiually is Already overpriced traxxas upgrades since aftermarket ones are cheaper
      Also the stock parts are missing if one preferred them so... not worth imo

    $1500 for an Xmaxx that will last forever is perfect for the person who has been waiting to pull the trigger on an xmaxx.

    @RcSpeedFreak-kk8wj 7 месяцев назад +2

    1500 is ridiculous but you don’t know the price because
    It’s free yes, yes, the 6700 hundred batter is THE battery to run because it’s expensive has a proprietary plug and is of course the number one reason made by traxxas and you get it for FREE. everyone just get a arrma 8s exb v2 much more value for money
