Got mine for about one year now. Purchased a Hoss that same day, the Traxxas got broken three times in a single month (stripped front diff, spur gear and broke one arm just from making the car jump). On the other side the MT10 is still in one piece, just changed the wheels and the shocks oil. I'm not a big fan of Associated but, damn, that truck is tough, fast and super fun to bash around. Also it was a lot cheaper than the Hoss. Great vid, thanks buddy!
Great unboxing and review! I am now a proud owner of a Rival with no regrets. Been racing AE products off and on for 16 years so this purchase made perfect sense for me. 👍🏽
The Mt10 is a nice truck. I am also looking at the Arrma Vortex as well. The Vortex has traction control where the MT10 does not. All of the videos that I have watched show the Mt10 handles good without it. Nice video , I enjoyed it.
I was gonna get one but worried that, even though it does look cool, it is a little on the small side? I got a big rock instead - love the lights on this thing
Instead of using shoe goo for body strengthening. Try a layer of one side elastic drywall tape and use flex seal in a can brush it on with a paint brush works a 100 times better then shoe goo.
Exact same thing happened to me. I had to upgrade my servo saver. So far this seems to be holding up. www.associatedelectrics.com/reedy/parts/details/27122-ASC27122-reedy_aluminum_servo_horn_25_spline/
I'm sure the wifey didn't appreciate the cartwheels demonstrations. ;) Have you had an opportunity to drive the Pro4SC10 RTR variant? I'm torn between which one I want to purchase.
Great likkle bashing rig Jr😎🎯 Also Razor rc has a show on how to dial down the brakes on him too give that a watch and see if your rig stops his endows on braking from speed🤩 nice back yard too😎 thanks
Regarding the batteries, I see Zee's recommended a lot on the RC Facebook groups. Any thoughts on Ovonics compared to Zee's (if you've used Zees)? With Ovonic, what kind of run times are you seeing with the 5200 and with the 6200 on the Rival?
That looks exactly like a Redcat MT10E. I wondered where they went since Redcat discontinued them. And yes, they're one tough truck. I expect the Volcano16 will be discontinued next. They're selling these like hot cakes to the Chinese.
Huh? This has nothing to do with the Redcat mt10e. totally different suspension design, chassis and all. Now what is interesting is the Team Associated MT10 is based on the old Helion Avenge 10MT, and that chassis design has been licensed to Team Associated & Redcat, except Redcat uses that design scaled up to 1/8th scale in their regular Kaiju. The MT10E does not share any parts, and frankly the Kaiju does not either because of the size, but Kaiju and Rival MT10 share the same design and geometry just in two deferent scales.
Very cool detailed vid brother. New supporter here 👊🏼 ordering one of these today to be my basher. I have a couple already but they are both discontinued and I can't enjoy them properly because I am scared to break them lol. This one is new enough that spares are about and should be for a good while yet. Rpm have arms out for it now as well after the breaks people were seeing. Is yours still stock? Will it take a bigger motor esc combo or won't it fit? Thx bud 🍻
How are doing with those batteries? I purchase 4 of them and they are literally the worst of all, they only last about 3 days!! Great video by the way thanks for cheering

And another thing, thank you for not having heavy metal music playing in the background. It allowed us to hear the Rival, your wife, and you clearly.
Haha I second that!!

Glad you are having fun
Hi is it easy change pinion or spur on mt 10 or adjust motor if needed
Great unboxing and review! I am now a proud owner of a Rival with no regrets. Been racing AE products off and on for 16 years so this purchase made perfect sense for me. 👍🏽
Right on!
I hope me and wife are like this one day awesome video man I loved it 😍
The Mt10 is a nice truck. I am also looking at the Arrma Vortex as well. The Vortex has traction control where the MT10 does not. All of the videos that I have watched show the Mt10 handles good without it. Nice video , I enjoyed it.
Is there a knob on the controller to control the speed? I have small kids and would like to be able to slow it down for them.
Great video by the way!!

Good tip, I plan on giving that a shot.
I got one. Used it once. Steering locked up. Probably servo saver.
Servo saver needs to get dialed corretly after a dozen or so uses. So maybe you are right. I hope you are!

Thanks for that, I knew something wasn't right. @@JrsGasolineAlley
I love this rig. Definitely an awesome bargain.
It really is!
Was looking at a savage xl flux but this is actually great looking quality !
It's sick, we love it
Looking to buy this over the granted

Hmm really, that's a bummer. I have a dozen of them in all different sizes. So far dead reliable some packs have 50+ charges on them
The batteries became unusable after 3 days?
Thanks for the awesome review
My pleasure!
im planning on getting this nice
You will love it
Can you put a link for the charger please
Sure thing! I added a link in the video description
Well of course it is!!! Its associated. Everything thing make is better then arrma or Traxxas. Arrma and Traxxas are entry level
They do make nice things!
Put some belted tires, good times.
Good call
How much does something like this retail for?
$300, link in description
I know what car I’m getting next
(This one)
amost wish i would have bought this instead of this new b6d.3
